Abstract

Along with the increase in tuberculosis (TB) cases, there has also been a rise in the number of Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis (DR-TB) cases, which poses a serious threat to global TB control efforts. Globally, there are 400,000 DR-TB cases according to the WHO report in 2024, with Indonesia contributing 7.4% of the total cases. In North Sumatra, the incidence of DR-TB cases reached 54%. This study aims to analyze and identify the factors influencing the incidence of DR-TB among DR-TB patients at the Special Lung Hospital of the Provincial Government of North Sumatra. The study uses a quantitative approach with a case-control design utilizing secondary data from the SITB application at the Special Lung Hospital of the Provincial Government of North Sumatra from 2021-2024. The sample consists of 204 individuals with a 1:1 ratio, comprising 102 individuals with DR-TB and 102 controls with non-DR-TB. The sampling technique used is purposive sampling. This study sets DR-TB incidence as the dependent variable, while independent variables include sex, employment status, age, treatment outcome, access to health service facilities, residence, contact examination, TB treatment history, diagnosis type, diabetes mellitus status, and HIV status. Data were analyzed using three tests: univariate analysis, bivariate analysis, and multivariate analysis with the use of statistical software version 22. The results show that factors significantly influencing DR-TB incidence include age (CI 95%: 4.7 [2.3-9.5]), employment (CI 95%: 3.4 [1.7-6.6]), and a history of previous TB treatment (CI 95%: 14.7 [5.5-39]).

Abstract

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Current therapies often have limited effectiveness and significant side effects. The ability of cancer cells to utilize glycolysis for their growth is one of the challenges in the development of cancer therapies. This study aims to identify the pharmacophore of scopoletin molecules and its derivatives as inhibitors of the PFKFB3 receptor, which plays an important role in cancer cell metabolism through the glycolysis process. The method used is in silico molecular docking. The results showed that of the 12 scopoletin derivative compounds tested, compound C1 (modified by removing double bonds in the carbonyl group and hydroxyl group) showed the best performance with a binding energy value of -7.07 kcal/mol, an inhibition constant of 5.35 μM, and the highest pharmacophore fit value of 48.63. Molecular interaction analysis identified amino acid residues TYR424, LYS168, ALA44, LYS47, and THR48 as important binding sites on the PFKFB3 receptor. All test compounds meet Lipinski's rule and show good ADMET profiles, with Human Intestinal Absorption (HIA) values of more than 89%. The removal of the hydroxyl group at the C-7 position provides better binding values for each class of scopoletin derivative compounds, while the methoxy group plays an important role in the interaction with the target protein.

Abstract

Aegle marmelos, commonly known as bael, has long been utilized in traditional medicine due to its diverse pharmacological activities, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer properties. Recent studies have highlighted its potential as an anticancer agent through mechanisms such as apoptosis induction, proliferation inhibition, and suppression of metastasis. Ovarian cancer remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality, primarily due to late-stage diagnosis, chemoresistance, and rapid metastatic progression. Co-chemotherapeutic agents derived from natural products, such as A. marmelos, may enhance standard chemotherapy efficacy, reduce resistance, and mitigate adverse effects. This review explores the potential of A. marmelos as a co-chemotherapeutic agent against metastatic ovarian cancer. The discussion covers its phytochemical composition, molecular mechanisms, cytotoxic activity across various cancer types, and its synergistic role in modulating resistance and tumor microenvironment. The therapeutic promise of A. marmelos in integrative cancer treatment strategies is emphasized as a research direction for future translational and clinical applications.

Abstract

Diabetes is a disease whose sufferers continue to increase in Indonesia. The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) in 2019, estimated around 463 million people with the disease. This figure is likely to continue to increase, up to 578 million in 2030 and 700 million in 2045. The use of herbal medicines is now growing, one of which comes from the secang woods (Caesalpinia sappan L.). The plant is rich in active bioactive components such as flavonoids and tannins. The flavonoids contained in secang have the ability to inhibit the enzyme α-glucosidase which plays a role in lowering the reabsorption of sugar into the blood. This study aims to determine the antihyperglycemia activity of the combination of sappang (Caesalpinia sappan L) and glibenclamamide in hyperglycemic mice. This research was carried out by providing treatment to the grouped mice. This study was experimental using a pretest-posttest with control group design. The results showed a significant difference in the average blood sugar levels of mice induced by alloxan in the group given a combination of secang and glibenclamide, namely a decrease in blood sugar levels from 227 mg/dL to 116.50 mg/dL after treatment.

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the chronic diseases known as a “silent killer” because it often presents without symptoms but can lead to serious complications such as stroke, kidney failure, and even death. The main challenge in hypertension treatment is patient non-adherence to regularly taking medication as prescribed, which can reduce treatment effectiveness and increase the risk of complications. A high level of adherence is essential to achieve optimal therapeutic outcomes and prevent harmful long-term effects. This study aims to determine the level of adherence to antihypertensive medication among patients at the internal medicine outpatient clinic of Anna Medika General Hospital Madura. The research used a descriptive quantitative method with a survey approach, employing the 8-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8) as the data collection instrument. The questionnaire was distributed to 96 respondents who met the inclusion criteria. Data were analyzed using the Guttman scale, and statistical processing was performed using SPSS version 16.0. The results showed that all respondents fell into the adherent category, with an average adherence rate of 94%. This indicates that most patients are aware of the importance of taking medication regularly, even while traveling or feeling well. The study concludes that the level of adherence to antihypertensive medication at Anna Medika General Hospital is high, serving as a positive indicator for the long-term effectiveness of therapy.
