Abstract

Worm disease does not cause death but can affect digestion, absorption and metabolism of food. Helminthiasis figure in Kupang City in particular were not recorded properly, but when viewed from its risk factor then it was endemic because of sanitary conditions, personal hygiene, behavior, and the provision of clean water is still low. This study aim to identify the presence of worm’s eggs in the pupils nail and the correlation with clean and healthy living behavior of pupils. This analytic observational study used cross sectional design. The samples were primary school students as many as 50 people that were taken by random sampling. Data collection was through interviews and laboratory tests on stool samples and analyzed by using chi-square. Results found as many as 13 pupils (26%) were infested by worm eggsof Ascaris lumbricoides at their nail. There were no relation between the presence of worm eggs at pupils nail with gender (p=0.303), age (p=0.747), grade (p=0.643) and playing habits (p=1.000), but there is an association between the presence of worm eggs at elementary pupils nails with the latrine use (p=0.049) and personal hygiene (p=0.039). So that PHC expected to cooperate with the department of education improve the promotion and provision of facilities to support a clean and healthy behaviors for elementary school students.

Abstract

There are some groups who may get the risks of hospital waste disposal. The first group is the patients who come to hospital to get cure and care. It is the most vulnerable group. The second is hospital’s employees who have direct contact with the patients as main illness’s agents on doing their daily duties. The third group is the visitor or those who accompany the patients; their risk is big as well. The last group is the society, people who live near the hospital, even when the waste siposal is done inappropriately. It causes the decrease of environmental quality which leads to the decline of health quality in the area. Hence, hospital has a responsibility to manage the disposal process of waste correctly and appropriately by conducting sanitation programs in hospital. Jogja Hospital is a Government-owned Hospital run by the Government of city of Jogyakarta. In its daily activities, the hospital produces waste which, if not properly discharged or burned, may cause adverse effect on workers as well as the surrounding area. Jogja hospital has Incinerator, thus simplifying the management such waste. The waste management including the rules, procedures and policymaking need to be explored to investigate the process of waste management of Jogja hospital.

Abstract

Globally breast cancer is the most common of all cancers. Since risk reduction strategies cannot eliminate the majority of breast cancers, early detection remains the cornerstone of breast cancer control. This paper, therefore, attempts to assess the awareness of breast cancer and its early detection measures among female students in Mekelle University, Ethiopia. An institution based cross-sectional study was conducted on randomly selected female students. Multistage sampling technique was employed to select the participants. A pre-tested structured questionnaire was used. Data analysis was carried out using SPSS version 16. In this study, 760 students participated making a response rate of 96 percent. Respondents with good knowledge score for risk factors, early detections measures and warning signs of breast cancer were 1.4 percent, 3.6 percent and 22.1 percent respectively. The majority 477 (62.8 percent) of participants practiced self-breast examination. In conclusion the participants had poor knowledge of risk factors, early detection measures and early warning signs of breast cancer.Therefore, the Ministry of health of Ethiopia together with its stalk holders should strengthen providing IEC targeting women to increase their awareness about breast cancer and its early detection measure.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the hepatoprotective effect of mangosteen peel extract (MPE) on borax-induced male rats. Hepatoprotective effect is represented by the variables of liver weight, SGOT (Serum Glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase) and SGPT (Serum Glutamic Pyruvate Transaminase). The true experimental study used randomized separated pretest-posttest control group design. MPE was made with 50% ethanol and 0.5% carboxymethyl cellulose-sodium (CMC-Na) stabilizer solutions. Studied groups included three control groups (positive, negative pretest and posttest) and three experimental groups (MPE dose of 200 mg/kg, 400 mg/kg and 600 mg/kg rats body weight (BW)). Samples consisted 36 male rats. The length of intervention was 16 days by providing borax, and then MPE was started on day 3 (in 3 experimental groups). Results showed that up to 16th day the SGOT tended to decrease (α <0.05), while the SGPT levels was stable, and so was the liver weight. Thus, up to day 16 the MPE was generally able to provide hepatoprotective effects mainly based on the variable SGOT in doses of 200 and 400 mg/kg. It has been proved that liver function of the rats was still relatively normal. This is in relations to the antioxidant potential of the MPE polyphenols.

Abstract

Antioxidants are well known for possessing anti-inflammatory properties, which can reduce the risk of chronic disease and obesity. However, very little research has been done to examine antioxidant intake among adolescent minority populations such as Native American adolescents. Our study examined the significance of antioxidant intake among Native American adolescents at an urban residential high school in Southern California. Our study population consisted of 183 male and female Native American adolescents, 14-18 years of age, representing 43 tribes from across the United States. Students’ primary source of meals was provided by the school food service. Based on the BMI calculations, the rate of obesity within our population was 38% for males and 40% for females, more than two-fold the national rate indicated by NHANESIII data. We used the Harvard School of Public Health Youth/Adolescent Questionnaire (HSPH YAQ), a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire, to examine antioxidant nutrient intake and evaluate the differences in the intake between normal and obese weight students. Statistical analysis of the results showed that intakes of vitamins C, E, and lycopene were the antioxidant nutrients found to be significantly different between normal and obese weight students and intakes of these nutrients were found to be higher among normal weight students (p-values = 0.02451, 0.00847, and 0.04928, respectively). These results suggest that dietary intake of antioxidants could be increased among Native American adolescents. Further research is needed to confirm our findings and identify effective ways for school food service to incorporate antioxidant rich foods into school menus.

Abstract

The aim of this research is to determine the risk factors related to coronary heart disease incidence in type 2 diabetes mellitus patient at Dr. M. Djamil Padang Hospital. This was an analytic research with case control study design around October 2014 until May 2015. Samples consisted of 39 cases and 39 controls with matching age and sex. The data were analyzed by using univariate, bivariate by using McNemar test, multivariate by using regression logistic test and stratification. The result showed that hypertension p=0.002 (OR=5, 95%CI 1.09-22.82), obesity p= 0.0001 (OR=6, 95%CI 2.08-17.29), duration of DM p= 0.01 (OR=3.2, 95% CI 1.17-8.73) and smooking  p= 0.002 (OR=7, 95%CI 1.59-30.80) were associated with coronary heart disease incidence in type 2 DM patient. The most dominant risk factor that was associated with coronary heart disease incidence in type 2 DM patient at Dr. M. Djamil Hospital was obesity p= 0.0001 (OR=10.2, 95% CI 3.08-33.81). Hypertension OR=11.25, duration of DM OR=18, smooking OR=16.2, sport activity OR=18.6 and income level OR=15.7 had interaction of the association between obesity and coronary heart disease incidence in type 2 DM patient. Hypertension, obesity, duration of DM and smooking were risk factors that associated to coronary heart disease incidence in type 2 DM patient. Then, the most dominant risk factor that associated to coronary heart disease incidence in type 2 DM patient at Dr. M. Djamil Padang was obesity. Hypertension, duration of DM, smooking, sporct activity and income level had interaction of the association between obesity and coronary heart disease incidence in type 2 DM patient.
