Abstract

Maximum loads due to physical exercise cause a decrease in antibody production and a decrease in leukocyte function in general. Many studies have been conducted on the effects of physical exercise, including Zumba, on CRP levels and peripheral blood parameters, but the research results have yielded different conclusions. This study aimed to find out the effect of regular and irregular Zumba exercises on CRP concentration and peripheral blood examination parameters. This experimental study used a pre-test and post-test design. There were 30 females aged 18-40 years who were divided into 2 training groups. Group I Zumba training 5x/week and group II Zumba training 1x/week. Both groups had to practice 60 minutes/session for 6 weeks. After 6 weeks of intervention, there was no significant correlation of CRP concentration (p=0,100). There were significant differences in Hb concentration (p=0.035), leukocyte count (p=0.001), erythrocyte count (p=0.001), and platelet count (p=0.018) in both groups. There was no significant effect of RZ and IZ exercise on CRP concentration and leukocyte differential count. But there were significant differences in changes in Hb concentration, leukocyte count, erythrocyte count, and platelet count, after regular and irregular Zumba exercise.

Abstract

This study addresses the crucial role of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the head in detecting disorders of the trigeminal nerve, particularly trigeminal neuralgia. Trigeminal neuralgia can significantly affect quality of life and is commonly observed in the elderly. However, some hospitals face limitations due to the absence of image fusion features in their MRI modalities, highlighting the need for practical alternative solutions.This study proposes the development of a MATLAB-based image fusion application as a practical alternative. The use of this application is expected to enhance visualization of the trigeminal nerve and surrounding blood vessels, particularly in hospitals whose MRI devices lack integrated image fusion capabilities. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining qualitative analysis to describe the implementation process of image fusion using MATLAB, and quantitative analysis to compare the results with those from built-in fusion software on MRI machines.This study successfully implemented image fusion techniques using MATLAB on raw data obtained from CISS 3D and 3D TOF sequences, with a focus on visualizing the trigeminal nerve. The comparison between the fused images generated using MATLAB and those produced by the MRI system's built-in fusion software revealed significant differences. The MATLAB-based image fusion technique demonstrated a substantial contribution to improved understanding and diagnosis in medical practice, particularly in merging images from different MRI modalities. Thus, MATLAB-based fusion can be considered a relevant and progressive solution, especially for hospitals lacking access to advanced fusion technology.

Abstract

Introduction: Brushing teeth is an activity of maintaining oral hygiene by treating and cleaning teeth and mouth from food residue or plaque which is carried out mechanically with the aim of preventing disease from both hard and soft tissues in the mouth. A common disease caused by incorrect brushing of teeth is dental wear in the cervical part of the tooth, commonly referred to as tooth abrasion. Tooth abrasion is a condition where there is damage or loss (the occurrence of enamel erosion) on the surface of the cervical part or neck of the tooth. Clinically, the appearance of abrasion is divided into 2 forms of damage, namely V shaped and a wedge or trench shaped. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of brushing techniques on cases of abrasion on the cervical teeth. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach and the type of research used is literature/study literature. The data collection method used is derived from secondary data sources such as journals, books, scientific papers, theses, text books and scientific articles. The results showed that several researchers had conducted research on the effect of brushing techniques on cases of tooth abrasion and all of these studies showed that improper brushing habits could cause abrasion of the cervical teeth.Pendahuluan: Menyikat gigi merupakan kegiatan menjaga kebersihan rongga mulut dengan cara merawat dan membersihkan gigi dan mulut dari sisa makanan atau plak yang dilakukan secara mekanis dengan tujuan mencegah penyakit baik dari jaringan keras maupun jaringan lunak di dalam mulut.

Abstract

Pneumonia is inflammation or acute inflammation of the lung tissue caused by various microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi, exposure to chemicals or physical damage to the lungs. Meanwhile, pulmonary tuberculosis is caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) and is an infectious disease. The use of thorax radiography is one of the most common radiological examinations in diagnosing diseases in the area of the heart and lungs. Radiography of the lungs is necessary to confirm the diagnosis of pneumonia. The accuracy of the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis depends on the method of taking examination material and the availability of diagnostic tools, for example microbiological tests, anatomical pathology, serology, thorax radiography and others. This study aims to find out how the thorax radiographic examination procedure is carried out in cases of pneumonia with a specific process of pulmonary tuberculosis in the Radiology Installation of Semarang District Hospital. This type of research is descriptive descriptive research with a case study approach. The research subjects used in this study were 1 patient who performed a thorax radiographic examination in a case of pneumonia with a specific process of pulmonary tuberculosis at the Radiology Installation of Semarang District Hospital. From the results of the data obtained, it is known that in the procedure for examining thorax radiography in cases of pneumonia with a specific process of pulmonary tuberculosis there is no special patient preparation, the patient is only asked to remove objects that can interfere with radiographic images in the area of the thoracic cavity being examined. The tools used include x-ray machines, bucky stands, imaging plates and computed radiography. The projection used is the postero anterior (PA) projection.
