Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the top 10 causes of death in the world and the most commoncause of death with single infectious agent. The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio is a cheap and fast marker ofinflammation that has been widely studied in TB. The aimed of this study was to investigate Neutrophillymphocyte ratio (NLR) in TB with positive Acid-Fast Bacilli (AFB) and negative AFB. Methods: Thiswas a retrospective study that included TB patients data from the medical records in two hospitals in Palu,Indonesia. A total of 150 TB patients were involved in this study consisting with positive and negative AFBTB suspect. Neutrophil, lymphocyte and NLR data were compared with the Mann-Whitney test. Results:The study shows a significant difference of neutrophils and lymphocytes percentage between positive AFBTB patients (80 subjects, 53.3%) and negative AFB TB patients (70 subjects, 46.7%) with (p < 0.001) as wellas NLR (p < 0.001). The percentage of Neutrophils was significantly higher in positive AFB TB comparedto negative AFB tuberculosis (81.18 ± 8.52 vs. 55.02 ± 9.80), lymphocyte percentage were found to besignificantly lower in positive AFB TB compared with negative AFB TB (12.72 ± 7.51 vs 28.69 ± 12.01).Additionally, NLR were significantly higher in positive AFB TB compared with negative AFB TB (10.20 ±9.53 vs 2.47 ± 1.56). Conclusion: There is a significant increase in the number of neutrophils, a decrease inlymphocytes and an increase in NLR among positive AFB TB compared with negative AFB TB.

Several previous studies have found that women are more susceptible to psychosocial burden than men.The study was aimed at analyzing the influence of having a husband/partner on the psychosocial burdenof COVID-19 among women in Indonesia. The study involved 5,061 women collected through a rapidonline survey. The psychosocial burden was reviewed based on worries level on 5 aspects of daily life,namely economic, religious, educational, employment, and social aspects. Four independent variables wereincluded in the analysis, including husband/partner ownership, age group, education level, and employmentstatus. A multivariate test using the binary logistic regression was done at the final stage. The results showthat women who have a husband/partner have a risk of 1.377 times compared to women who do not havehusbands/partners to experience worries. Women in the 40-49 age group had 0.630 times the risk of womenwith ? 19 age groups to experience worries. Meanwhile, women with the ? 50 age groups had a 0.327times risk than women with the ? 19 age groups for experiencing worries. Women with higher educationhave a risk of 0.610 times compared to women with secondary education for experiencing worries. It couldbe concluded that having a soulmate is a risk factor for women to experience the psychosocial burden ofCOVID-19 in Indonesia. The analysis also found that younger age and lower education were risk factors forwomen to experience the psychosocial burden of COVID-19 in Indonesia.

Drug abuse or overdose in accidents is a serious social issue. This study concerned the adsorption behaviourof the Valium drug in both simulated gastric and intestinal pH onto the untreated eggshell powder by usingUV spectroscopy. The effects of various experimental parameters such as contact time, pH-solution, anadsorbent dosage of Valium and temperature range (300-320k) on the adsorption capacities have beeninvestigated. The suitability of Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption models to the experimental equilibriumdata at different solution temperatures were calculated. The adsorption was well described by the Freundlichisotherm model and Langmuir, S3 for the stomach and S2 for the intestine according to the Giles classification.Thermodynamic parameters such as ?H°, ?G°, and ?S° results showed that the adsorption of the drugincreases by increasing the temperature in the stomach solution, i.e., the endothermic reaction decreases byincreasing the temperature at the intestinal solution, i.e., the reaction is exothermic. Experimental data werealso tested in terms of adsorption kinetics, the results illustrated that the adsorption process was followingpseudo-second-order kinetics in the stomach solution and first order in the intestinal solution.
