Abstract

Background : Diabetes melitus is a risk factor for dementia. People often assume that memory impairment or memory loss is a normal symptom or a normal process. Therefore, there is a lack of treatment for dementia in the community. Early detection needs to be done to determine the presence of dementia in patients with type 2 diabetes melitus and non diabetes melitus type 2. Purpose : To determine the incidence of dementia in patients with type 2 diabetes melitus compared to patients with non diabetes melitus type 2. Method : The research design used in this research is observational analytic, with the research design used is cross sectional. The sampling technique used is probability sampling with simple random sampling. Selecting population members based on predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria. With a sample of 58 people in the control group and 58 people in the case group. Result : Samples were collected using secondary data obtained from medical records of patients with dementia at Abdoel Wahab Sjahranie Samarinda Hospital during the 2019-2021 period. The results of the study showed that 54 people (46,6%) developed dementia, of them with type 2 diabetes melitus as many as 39 people, while non-diabetes melitus type 2 as many as 15 people. Respondents without dementia were 62 people (53.4%), of them with type 2 diabetes melitus as many as 19 people, while non-diabetes melitus type 2 as many as 43 people. There was a significant difference in the incidence of dementia in patients with type 2 diabetes melitus and non diabetes melitus type 2 (p = 0.000).Conclusion : There is a significant difference in the incidence of dementia in patients with type 2 diabetes melitus and non diabetes melitus type 2.

Abstract

Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) stated that obesity is a world epidemic. According to basic health research in 2018, the prevalence of central obesity in the population aged 15 years in Kediri Regency/City has a higher prevalence compared to the average prevalence in East Java Province. The waist hip circumference ratio is one of the anthropometric calculations that can be used to assess central obesity. The  high prevalence of central obesity in Indonesia is closely related to the incidence of non-communicable diseases, including diabetes mellitus. However, only 25% of people with diabetes mellitus know that they have diabetes. Routine blood sugar checks for residents in districts/cities, especially in the city of Kediri, are also at a low level of 3.6%, so this is the reason for conducting this study.Objective: To study the correlation between waist hip circumference ratio with fasting blood glucose concentration at the age of 30-65 years in the District of Kediri.Method: Cross sectional observational analytical research approach. Sampling using consecutive sampling. Testing the correlation between two variables using the Spearman correlation test. The correlation between variables is considered significant if the p value <0.05 is obtained.Result: This research was conducted in Sonorejo Village, Grogol District, Kediri Regency, East Java on August 10 – August 12, 2021. Otained 40 respondents with an age range of 30-65 years. The correlation between waist hip circumference ratio with fasting blood glucose consentration was not statistically significant (p=0,453). The correlation value of 0.122 indicates a very weak correlation strength and is not clinically significant.Conclusion: There is no correlation between waist hip circumference ratio with fasting blood glucose concentration at the age of 30-65 years in the District of Kediri. Keywords:Waist hip circumference ratio, fasting blood glucose, Kediri.

Abstract

Background: Perineal rupture is the most common complication of vaginal delivery. Similar to the wound healing process in general, the perineal wound healing process is influenced by nutritional factors. Nutritional factors that are known to be related to the wound healing process are protein levels which are reflected in albumin levels. In Indonesia, serum protein levels are not a variable that is routinely monitored in pregnant women. With a high prevalence of perineal wounds, measurement of serum albumin levels can be a means of early detection of maternal nutritional factors that can affect wound healing outcomes.Objective  of this study was to determine the relationship between serum albumin levels and the degree of post-salary perineal wound healingMethods: The study was originally a prospective analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design. In response to the pandemic, the research design was changed to a literature study by searching for scientific publications during the last 5 years in Pubmed, Google Scholar, Sciencedirect, Researchgate, and Mendeley with the keywords Perineum, wounds, postpartum, albumin, nutrition and exclusion for literature studies. is inaccessible PDF and Publication not in the last 10 years .Results: There were 10 literatures regarding wound healing and nutritional status of which 6 literatures were perineal wounds and 4 literatures were wounds related to malignancy. From the literature, it was concluded as many as 10 literatures showed that there was a relationship between nutritional status and wound healing.Conclusion: : After reviewing the ten literatures, it can be concluded that there is a relationship between nutritional status and wound healing in mothers with perineal wounds.Keywords: Perineum, wound, postpartum, albumin, nutrition

Abstract

Background: There are physiological changes during pregnancy, one of which is an increase in mother’s nutritional needs, which is protein. The most abundant plasma protein component is albumin; hypoalbuminemia is serum albumin levels below the normal values, which it can occur due to malnutrition, inflammation, kidney or liver damage where albumin is synthesized. Good nutritional status in pregnant women can prevent Low Birth Weight (LBW), while hypoalbuminemia in pregnant women can increase the risk of LBW. LBW is neonatal birth weight <2500 grams that can cause neonatal death and increase the risk of other diseases. LBW is a global problem, and in Indonesia LBW was also the most common cause of neonatal death in 2019 with a percentage of 35.3%. In Surabaya, there were 703 LBW cases (1.6%) in 2019; moreover, there were 15 LBW cases (1.92%) at Jagir Health Center in 2020. Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the association between maternal serum albumin levels and LBW. Method: The method used in this thesis is literature review with 10 research journals. The literatures that used in this literature review are journals with topics that related to the association between maternal serum albumin levels and neonatal birth weight. Result: From this literature review, there are 5 research journals conclude that there is a significant association between maternal serum albumin levels and neonatal birth weight.Conclusion: In conclusion, there is a possible association between maternal serum albumin levels and neonatal birth weight. Keywords: maternal serum albumin, hypoalbuminemia, birth weight, LBW

Abstract

Psychological stress is the body’s way to cope with stressors. We are not able to evade stressors. In fact, we need stressors to keep ourselves going. So stress to an extent is a good thing. It is harmful when it becomes a distress, in which it starts to affect our bodily function, including our sleep quality. Psychological stress will activate the body’s HPA-axis and the sympathetic pathway of the autonomic nervous system, releasing hormones such as Cortisol and Catecholamine. These hormones can cause the disturbance of sleep. The aim of this study is to find the relation between the level of stress and the sleep quality in healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. PSS (Perceived Stress Scale) was used to calculate the level of stress and PSQI (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index) was used to calculate sleep quality. In this study we found that the level of stress is related to sleep quality in healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. The relation is positive, significant (P = 0.002), and moderate (r = 0.4). To conclude, there is a relation between stress and sleep in healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract

Background: Tobacco is one of the biggest public health threats in the world. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the use of cigarettes causes the death of ± 8 million people per year worldwide. About 1.2 million are passive smokers who are exposed to cigarette smoke. Mucociliary transport is the first line in the defense mechanism of the nose that works actively to keep the respiratory tract always clean. Exposure to cigarette smoke can increase mucus secretion. Ciliary movement can also be obstructed, thereby interfering with nasal mucociliary transport. Inflammation of the nasal mucosa due to Allergic Rhinitis will obstruct the nose, which can interfere with the work of mucociliary transport.Objective: This study aims to analyze the effect of cigarette smoke on mucociliary transport in Allergic Rhinitis patients.Methods: This research is an observational study using a cross-sectional research method that was carried out at PHC Surabaya Hospital.Results: 20 RA patients were divided into two groups: ten smokers and ten non-smokers. The saccharin test measured mucociliary transport time. The mucociliary transport time for smokers was 8.72 minutes and 4.82 minutes for non-smokers. The results of the Mann-Whitney test obtained a significance value of p = 0.019 < α = 0.05.Conclusions: There is a significant difference in mucociliary transport time between smoking RA patients, where the mucociliary transport time of smoking patients is longer than that of non-smokers.

Abstract

Introduction: In the human body, microplastics are considered toxic agents. Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) has very high chemical resistance, making it very difficult to be degraded by microorganisms. LDPE plastic would be degraded to a smaller size and could not be completely degraded by microorganisms. Plastic packaging made from LDPE is the most commonly found plastic waste. Microplastics may cause cell injury, especially cells in the liver, the primary organ for detoxification. Microplastic induces reactive oxygen species, which leads to oxidative stress. Prolonged exposure to microplastics leads cells unable to cope with the toxic effects. Furthermore, this process triggers fatty degeneration and necrosis. This study aims to explain the correlation between microplastic oral intake with fatty degeneration and necrosis of hepatocytes in animal models. Methods: Forty-two Wistar rats were involved and assigned to one control and five experimental groups. The experimental groups were given microplastic exposure starting from 0.0375 mg/day to 0.6 mg daily for 90 days. Results: Fatty degeneration and necrosis were observed using a light microscope with hematoxylin-eosin staining. There was a significant correlation between microplastic oral intake and hepatocyte necrosis (p<0.05). The higher the exposure dose, the more hepatocyte necrosis. In contrast, there was no correlation between microplastic exposure and fatty degeneration. Ingestion of microplastics leads to hepatocyte necrosis. Conclusion: Oral intake of LDPE microplastics with <20 µm in size for 90 days in Wistar rats leads to hepatocellular injury. Based on histopathological images, hepatocyte necrosis was more prominent than hepatocyte fatty degeneration.
