Abstract

Green tea contains flavonoids which are the result of metabolism of both plants which are widely distributed in plants. Catechins as the active substance in green tea leaves function as an antibacterial for Staphylococcus aureus which can inhibit the growth of acne. Gel peel off mask is a skin care preparation in the form of a gel and will dry after being applied to the skin. Peel off gel masks can be useful for repairing and treating facial skin from problems with wrinkles, aging, acne and can also be used to shrink pores. The purpose of this study was to determine the best formulation and concentration of green tea leaf extract peel-off gel masks. The research method used is an experimental method, by making a tea leaf extract formulation as a peel off gel mask. The results showed that the green tea leaf extract gel peel-off mask preparation was brown in color, had a distinctive smell, homogeneous and stable, did not irritate the volunteers' skin, and fulfilled the evaluation tests of other preparations. The preference test based on the preference parameter for texture is significant at 0.078 (sig=0.000<0.078), for color is significant at 0.05 (sig=0.000<0.05) and aroma is significant at 0.05 (sig=0.002<0.05). Green tea leaf extract with a concentration of 0.08%, 0.16% and 0.32% can be used as a gel peel off mask formulation. Future researchers are expected to be able to compare the effectiveness of peel off gel mask preparations with a variety of other types of tea and with different concentrations.Keywords: Green Tea, Mask, Peel Off

Abstract

Abstract The hospital pharmacy installation plays an essential role in the hospital, where the hospital pharmacy installation manages the management and distribution of drugs. The achievement of quality indicators related to the waiting time for concoction and non-concoction drug services at the Outpatient Pharmacy Installation of X Kendal Hospital still needs to be consistent. Patients also complain about long waiting times. This study aims to determine whether the implementation of patient drug prescription services in the Hospital Outpatient Pharmacy Installation has been appropriately managed or needs improvement. This research is qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. Purposive sampling researchers selected the research subjects. The subjects in this study consisted of four primary informants and two triangulation informants. The results of the in-depth interviews found that during no initial check was made on the identity of the patient or the prescription received because due to the habit of piling up prescriptions, the dose given by the doctor was not correct. Hence, it had to be recalculated, the amount of drug stock in the system was not correct always the same as the available physical stock, lack of pharmaceutical staff during the drug preparation process, and there were medication errors in the drugs that had been prepared so that the staff had to re-prepare them, and errors in the drug delivery process due to staff negligence, causing longer waiting times for prescription services. Therefore, it was concluded that the implementation of prescription services at hospital X in Kendal district had not been managed optimally or appropriately. Hospitals still need to evaluate and improve the process of implementing prescription services to reduce waiting times. Keyword: Drug Prescription, Pharmacy Installation, Service

Abstract

The belief that smoking reduces stress, which causes stressed smokers to increase their intensity of smoking, also influences the maintenance of smoking behaviour.This study aimed to determine indoor smoking behavior and ARI symptoms in Cambodia, Timor Leste, and the Philippines. This research uses secondary data, especially DHS data from 2015–2020, in Cambodia, Timor Leste, and the Philippines. This study uses household data with the variables of women's smoking behavior in the home and ARI symptoms in toddlers.The number of times a person smokes per day, week, or month will be given to urban and rural households and recorded.  The researcher will compare the number of times a mother smoked in the home with the number of times a child under five had symptoms of ARI.  Data analysis was conducted using JAPS software version 16 by conducting frequency distribution and percentage on each variable. Daily smoking at home is highest in Timor Leste (47.5%) compared to daily smoking behavior in the Philippines (47.5%) in urban households. Weekly smoking at home was highest in Timor Leste (11.2%) compared to weekly indoor smoking behavior in the Philippines (7%) in urban households. mothers who smoked in the home had a higher number of children under five with ARI symptoms (Philippines 2.2%, Cambodia 10%) than mothers who did not smoke had a higher number of children under five with ARI symptoms (Philippines 1.5%, Cambodia 5.4%).Mothers' daily smoking behavior in the home is still high in Cambodia, Timor Leste, and the Philippines, especially in rural areas compared to urban areas. Households with mothers who smoke in the home are likelier to have toddlers who experience ARI symptoms than households without mothers who smoke. Cambodia is a country that has a high number of mothers who smoke at home and toddlers who experience ARI symptoms. Keyword:   ARI Symptoms, Home,  Households, Smoking Behaviour

Abstract

Iodine deficiency in school children is estimated at 25% worldwide. Complete brain development occurs at the age of 7 years and the development of cognitive function can be increased until 15  years with normally iodine status, namely adequate intake of iodine and Urinary Iodine Excretion (UIE). This study aims to analyze the relationship between iodine intake, UIE, height for age and academic achievements in school-age children. This research was an analytic observational study with a cross sectional design. This research was conducted in 4 elementary schools in Pakis District in March 2019. The samples were selected by random sampling, totaling 177 subjects. The dependent variable was the school's academic achievements in the form of midterm exam scores for maths, arts and sports. While the independent variables were iodine intake, UIE  and height for age. The assessment of iodine intake was using a 24-hour recall form  and interpreted using the 2007 Nutrisurvey application. The analysis method for UIE is the acid digestion method. Height for age is a child's nutritional status that can be determined based on anthropometric measurements. Academic achievements is learning outcomes as measured by midterm exam scores iin maths, arts, culture and sports. Data was analyzed by Linear Regression. Iodine intake increased math (b=0.01; p=0.014), art and sport (b=0.03; p=<0.001) scores. UIE levels increased math (b=0.01; p=0.001), art (b=0.01; p=0.002) and sport (b=0.01; p=0.003) scores. Height for age increased sport scores (b=1.58; p=0.010). The conclusion of this study is that height for age increase sports ability and iodine intake also UIE can increase academic achievements. Keyword:  Academic Achievements,  Height for Age, Iodine Intake, UIE
