Abstract

Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem that affects children's physical growth and cognitive development. Deli Serdang Regency is one of the regencies with the highest prevalence, namely 33.8% in 2023. This study aims to analyze the factors that influence the incidence of stunting in toddlers aged 1–5 years in the Namorambe Health Center working area, Deli Serdang. This study used a cross-sectional design, with a sample of 91 respondents randomly selected from a total population of 1,005 toddlers. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using the chi-square test. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between parenting patterns (p = 0.000), maternal knowledge (p = 0.000), and infectious diseases (p = 0.013) with the incidence of stunting. However, there was no significant relationship between family income and the incidence of stunting. The recommendation is that comprehensive interventions are needed, including nutrition education and improving basic health services, to reduce the incidence of stunting

Abstract

S. scabiei infestation triggers many reactions including allergic reactions, inflammation, innate immune reactions, and activation of immune components in the skin accompanied by oxidative stress stages. This article aims to examine the genetic characterization of S. scabiei and gain a better understanding of host-parasite interactions with particular emphasis on skin oxidative stress parameters such as oxidant/antioxidant balance, stress parameters, and immune responses. This article is compiled as a systematic review by examining a number of relevant publications. Based on this search, it was found that to determine the effect of S. scabiei infestation on the oxidant/antioxidant balance in serum, oxidative stress markers such as total antioxidant activity (T-AOC), total nitric oxide concentration (TNO), lipid peroxide levels, and malonyldialdehyde (MDA) were used, as well as antioxidant enzyme levels; superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione-S-transferase (GSH) and catalase. Oxidative stress has been shown to be involved in the pathogenesis of several parasitic infectious diseases including scabies. Host cell metabolism produces ROS and RNS. At low to moderate levels, they are involved in several physiological functions including cell signaling and immune function. Conversely, at high levels, they cause damage to molecules including lipids, proteins, lipoproteins, and nucleic acids starting from a chain reaction of free radical formation leading to a condition known as oxidative stress. This article recommends a meta-analysis study to obtain more in-depth review results for further research..

Abstract

P.falciparum and P.vivax infections elicit an immune response manifesting as inflammation, which is typified by alterations in various hematological parameters, including ESR. The objective of this study was to analyze the disparities in ESR values between P. falciparum and P. vivax infections. The study design employed an analytical approach, utilizing a cross-sectional study design. The population and sample consisted of 20 malaria patients at Biak General Hospital, including 9 confirmed P.falciparum infections and 11 P.vivax infections. The mean ESR values for P.falciparum infection were 32.8 mm/1 hour for males and 40.5 mm/1 hour for females. For P. vivax infection, the values were 36.4 mm/1 hour for males and 45.8 mm/1 hour for females. The ESR comparison between P. falciparum and P. vivax exhibited a significance value of 0.08>0.05, and the ESR comparison based on positivity level demonstrated a significance value of 0.253>0.05. A thorough examination of the results reveals that there is no statistically significant difference in the ESR values between P.falciparum and P.vivax infections in patients suffering from malaria.

Abstract

Complications during pregnancy and childbirth in the form of bleeding are the main cause of maternal mortality. One case of bleeding is placenta previa. The cause of placenta previa has not been explained, but the occurrence of placenta previa is often associated with a history of cesarean delivery. The purpose of writing this article is to compare the results of research that has been done with theories related to the relationship between cesarean section delivery and the occurrence of placenta previa. This article is a literature review in the form of literature compiled by utilizing secondary data from various publications related to the relationship between a history of cesarean delivery and the occurrence of placenta previa. The results of several studies show a strong correlation between a history of cesarean section and the occurrence of placenta previa in subsequent pregnancies, but one study found no correlation between a history of cesarean section and placenta previa. The theory explains that fibroid tissue from uterine wall wounds created during cesarean section affects the vascularization of placental implantation. Another theory also states that women who have undergone two or more cesarean sections are at higher risk of experiencing placenta previa. This literature can be used as a consideration regarding the importance of choosing delivery in pregnant women according to indications because cesarean delivery can be a risk factor for placenta previa in subsequent pregnancies, which can affect maternal mortality rates

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a dangerous infectious disease that can cause death in a short period. Despite efforts to eradicate mosquitoes, vector control, such as the use of Ovitraps, which are effective in reducing the Aedes aegypti mosquito population, has become a primary focus. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of Ovitrap colors most preferred by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes for laying eggs in the working area of the Mokoau Health Center. This research used a pre-experimental method with an observational design to evaluate the preference of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in laying their eggs in Ovitraps of various colors, using tap water (PDAM water) as the medium. The study was conducted in the working area of the Mokoau Health Center from July to August 2024. The population and sample of the study consisted of female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes that laid eggs in Ovitraps painted red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and black, with 10 Ovitraps of each color. Data were collected by installing Ovitraps in the study area. Data analysis was conducted descriptively to present the observations, complemented by a normality test to determine whether the data distribution was normal or not. The results of this study indicate that Aedes aegypti mosquitoes have several color preferences for laying eggs, including black, red, blue, green, and orange. Based on the analysis conducted, the mosquitoes laid the most eggs in yellow-colored Ovitraps, with an average of 33.8 eggs (27.37%). This was followed by black Ovitraps with an average of 25.10 eggs (20.32%), red Ovitraps with an average of 19.00 eggs (15.38%), blue Ovitraps with an average of 16.70 eggs (13.52%), green Ovitraps with an average of 15.40 eggs (12.47%), and orange Ovitraps with an average of 13.50 eggs (10.93%). These findings highlight that the choice of Ovitrap color can influence the effectiveness of mosquito egg capture, with yellow offering greater attraction and being a more effective option in controlling the Aedes aegypti population.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia due to impaired insulin secretion and/or action. The increasing global (approx. 589 million adults) and national (11.7% in Indonesia in 2023) prevalence highlights the critical need for effective therapies. This urgency drives the search for local alternatives like Eleutherine palmifolia (Dayak Onion) and Imperata cylindrica (Cogon Grass), traditionally used to control blood glucose. This review aims to examine their antidiabetic activity, identify multi-target mechanisms, and explore their potential synergy on insulin sensitivity. The method employed a narrative literature review of 23 scientific articles (2013–2025) sourced from PubMed, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and ResearchGate. Results show E. palmifolia lowers blood glucose and improves insulin resistance through pancreatic β-cell regeneration, α-glucosidase inhibition, and antioxidant activity. I. cylindrica reduces oxidative stress and enhances glucose utilization via anti-inflammatory mechanisms and improved mitochondrial function. In conclusion, the combination offers potential for a stronger synergistic effect in improving insulin sensitivity and blood glucose control. Recommendations include essential further testing through in vivo combination trials and toxicity tests to prove safety and effectiveness. Furthermore, in-depth exploration of molecular pathways (e.g., GLUT4, AMPK, insulin gene expression) is required to clarify the synergistic mechanism

Abstract

Running is a sport that is often chosen by many people when they want to exercise. Both professional and amateur runners often experience musculoskeletal disorders such as knee, ankle, and hip pain due to repetitive mechanical stress, improper running technique, and the use of non-ergonomic footwear. In running, ergonomic interventions—including modifications to running posture, shoe selection, and corrective exercise programs — are considered important for injury prevention and performance enhancement, but their effectiveness varies across studies. This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of ergonomic interventions on musculoskeletal health and performance in runners. The Research methode with literature search was conducted through PubMed, Scopus, and Science Direct databases (2020–2025) and yielded 37 articles. Of the screened articles, three studies met the inclusion criteria. Data were analyzed narratively, with risk of bias assessment performed using RoB 2 and ROBINS-I tools. The Result :. Interventions such as running style analysis, dynamic posture training, and the use of ergonomic shoes have been shown to reduce the prevalence of overuse injuries such as iliotibial band syndrome and plantar fasciitis. Several studies have also reported improvements in running efficiency, VO₂ max, and travel time. Runners who take an individualized ergonomic approach show faster injury recovery and higher performance consistency. Ergonomic interventions have been proven effective in reducing the risk of musculoskeletal injuries and improving runners' performance. The recommendations that the author proposes for training management and athlete health are as follows: integrating neuromuscular strengthening exercises into running programs; optimizing training load regulation and recovery to prevent overtraining; utilizing technology-based psychological interventions to maintain motivation and training adherence; employing hypoxic training conditions or environmental simulations as physiological interventions; using wearable devices for real-time monitoring; and conducting regular physiological screenings as strategies for injury prevention and performance enhancement

Abstract

Chao is a traditional fermented food that comes from the Pangkep area. The microorganism that dominates Chao is the lactic acid bacteria (LAB). LAB bacteria belong to a group of probiotic bacteria that have many health benefits. Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria are bacteria that cause infections whose prevalence is increasing. The purpose of this study is to explore LAB from Chao Pangkep as a new source to find LAB that can be used to treat MRSA infection. The research methods carried out were LAB isolate rejuvenation, lactic acid bacterial selection through hemolytic tests and antibacterial activity tests using the agar diffusion method (Kirby and Bauer disc diffusion). The test results showed that three LAB isolates, namely C2, C10, and C11, were γ-hemolytic (non-hemolytic) so they were not pathogenic. The three non-pathogenic isolates were subsequently used as LAB candidates for testing antibacterial activity. Antibacterial activity is shown by the presence of clear zones formed around bacterial colonies. The existence of LAB's ability as an antibacterial is due to the production of metabolite compounds. Therefore, the lactic acid (LAB) bacterial isolate with code C11 has antibacterial activity, so it can be used as a potential candidate to control pathogenic bacteria.
