Abstract

The use of cotton buds is considered to be able to cause cerumen impaction in the external ear canal. However, the use of cotton buds in Indonesia is still quite high. This study aims to examines the relationship between the use of cotton buds and the incidence of cerumen obturans. This study used a cross-sectional study design involving 56 respondents who routinely use cotton buds. Based on the study, a significant relationship was obtained between the frequency and depth (p-value 0.026 and p-value 0.008) of cotton bud use and the incidence of cerumen obturans. Students who frequently use cotton buds have a 5.625 times greater risk of experiencing cerumen obturans compared to those who rarely use them. Students who use cotton buds up to the pars osseus (2/3 of the inner ear canal) have a 4.444 times greater risk of experiencing cerumen obturans compared to those who only use cotton buds up to the pars cartilaginosa (1/3 of the outer ear canal). In conclusion, health education programs regarding the use of cotton buds need to be developed to increase awareness of how to maintain safe and effective ear hygiene.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus and its consequences are significantly influenced by oxidative stress. Sunkist and lime oranges are a nutritional powerhouse, offering a range of health benefits due to their high content of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Key compounds like anthocyanins, flavanones, and hydroxycinnamic acid contribute to their potential positive impact to reduce oxidative stress. Therefore, the effect of nanoparticle granules combination of sunkist orange peel and lime peel was investigated on diabetic rats. Twenty male Wistar rats were randomly distributed:  Group 1 as control group given distilled water, Group 2 as DM group with alloxan, Group 3 with DM + NGSLP 100mg / kgBW, Group 4 with DM + NGSLP 200mg / kgBW. Rats with diabetes were treated by intraperitoneal injection with 100 mg/kg alloxan. NGSLP treatment was given for 14 days to each treatment group. At the end, the blood and heart tissue were collected and used to determine the GPx enzyme, SOD, MDA, CAT and histological evaluation. Diabetes induction increased the level of MDA and decreased after treated with NGSLP. In diabetic rats treated with NGSLP showed an increase in SOD, GPX and CAT in blood. Histopathological findings of heart tissue showed the protective effect of NGSLP in rats with diabetic. This study revealed that NGSLP has antioxidant effects in the blood and heart of alloxan-induced diabetic rats.

Abstract

Nearly 3 years have passed since the WHO declared COVID-19 as a pandemic. The pandemic left some problems, including cardiac, even after it has gone. Myocarditis is a common cardiac complication among COVID-19 infections. We present an interesting case of a 23-year-old male admitted with chronic heart failure after COVID-19 infections. A 23-Years Old Male patient came to our emergency department (ER) with Heart Failure (HF) symptoms and signs. He had history of flu like symptom, with positive COVID marker 3 weeks prior to admission. Patient was a sailor with history of healthy lifestyle, no cardiovascular risk factor and normal medical checkup result. Cardiomegaly with LVH configuration appeared in chest x-ray. The ECG 12-lead showed sinus bradycardia with PVC multifocal and episode of Torsade de Pointes auto convert. Echocardiography revealed reduced of Ejection Fraction (EF). Patient also had history of recurrent hospital admission with ADHF within 6 months. Cardiac MRI was done to distinguish the etiology of heart failure which support the diagnosis of non-ischemia cardiomyopathy caused by chronic myocarditis. From those data, we conclude that the etiology of heart failure in this patient was due to chronic myocarditis related Covid-19 infection. Myocarditis in post COVID-19 condition is an uncommon but still possible condition that needs to be considered. This case report emphasizes the etiology of HF must be sought in all cases, because its recognition can direct the therapy and influence the prognosis of these patients.

Abstract

Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is a widely marketed flavor enhancer that is regularly consumed. MSG is toxic to several organs including the small intestine. Previous studies have reported the effects of high doses of MSG; however, these findings are not directly applicable to equivalent human intakes. This study aimed to investigate the effect of MSG on the duodenum in rats administered with human average daily intake (ADI). Twenty-four adult male Wistar rats weighing 150-250 g at the age of 8-12 weeks were divided into four experimental groups (n = 6): normal control group (C), group 1 (0.378 mg/g b.wt), group 2 (0.756 mg/g b.wt), and group 3 (1.512 mg/g b.wt) oral MSG per day for 21 days. Duodenaltissue was dissected and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) for histological examination. Data analysis was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test (p < 0.05). The average height of the villus was calculated for each group: control (1047.40 ± 158.0 µm), Group 1 (850.68 ± 202.38 µm), Group 2 (906.29 ± 416.63 µm), and Group 3 (877.55 ± 154.65 µm). There was a difference in the height of the villi between all groups; however, there was no statistically significant difference compared with the control group (p = 0.384). The control group showed a normal appearance of the duodenal mucosa without inflammatory cells. In contrast, the treatment group showed inflammatory cell infiltration and lacked distinct brush-border structures. Our study showed that administration of MSG at an estimated dose of human ADIresulted in histological damage to the duodenum.

Abstract

The long-term use of Vancomycin and its administration at inappropriate doses still cause uncontrolled physiological side effects, particularly in terms of kidney development and metabolism. This study aims to investigate the effects of Bidens pilosa extract (BPE) on vancomycin-induced acute kidney injury in prepubertal rats. This study employed an experimental research method, randomly dividing 40 female Wistar rats into five equal groups: control/adult (C), prepubertal (P), prepubertal + Bidens pilosa (PB), prepubertal + vancomycin (PV), and prepubertal + vancomycin + Bidens pilosa (PVB). Gentamicin caused kidney damage in both PG and PVB groups. We treated PB and PVB with a single dose of BPE. At necropsy, we collected blood, serum, and kidney tissue for evaluation. The research results showed that the total leukocyte count was higher in PB compared to the others (P = 0.002). Serum urea, creatinine, aspartate aminotransferase, and total protein levels significantly increased in PB, PV, and PVB compared to C and P. Glutathione levels were low in the serum and kidney tissue of PV, and malondialdehyde levels were high compared to the others (P<0.05). Using BPE in vancomycin-induced acute kidney injury in ovariectomized rats resulted in a decrease in serum creatinine, urea, and malondialdehyde levels in PVB compared to PV, an increase in glutathione levels, and a milder severity of histopathological findings. The conclusion of this study shows that a single dose of BPE partially reduces kidney damage in rats with gentamicin-induced acute kidney injury
