Data collection techniquewas carried out through in-depth interview and documents review.Results: The requirement specifications were classified into 4 domains (functional, technical, interface,performance requirements). Functional requirements consist of procedures, menus, features, content, data,information, control mechanism, and parties involved. Technical requirements include programs, networks,size, and types of digital devices. Interface requirements consist of visual display related to user interfaceand operating system. Performance requirements include several aspects such as speed, accuracy, efficiency,effectiveness, security, etc.Conclusion: Digital health promotion platform requirement specification must be tailored to the needs ofmillenial and post-millenial generations. If these requirements can be met, the target will be easier to acceptand use digital health promotion platform.

Abstract

About 5–7% of the world population have an unhealthy hemoglobin (Hb) gene . The most common form ofhemoglobinopathy globally is sickle cell disease. Sickle cell disorder (SCD) is the major predominant innateclutter of Hb amalgamation stamped through a change within the ? globin gene, which result within thesubstitution of glutamate corrosive with valine at the 6th codon and union of Hb S a which is a hemoglobin,beneath hypoxic states, coming about within the abnormality of RBCs (Red Blood Corpuscles). The lysis oferythrocytes result in raise in extracellular hemoglobin, hence hoisting liking and official to open nitric oxideor antecedents of nitric oxide in this manner diminishing its levels and assist partaking to vasoconstriction .Sickle ruddy blood cells since of their hardness to stream by means of the micro-circulation, results in visitvaso-occlusive scenes, destitute micro-vascular blood stream, ischemic damage, and myocardial localizednecrosis . The clinical highlights of sickle cell anemia are constant hemolytic weakness, an elevatedvulnerability to diseases, repetitive difficult Vaso-Occlusive Emergency (VOC) and a brought down lifehope .

Abstract

Lead is a heavy metal which can affect male reproductive system. The accumulation of lead in the bodybecomes a precursor to the formation of ROS, which is able to damage spermatozoa. The toxicity of leadcan be prevented by antioxidants. Kaffir lime leaves (Citrus hystrix) with their flavonoid content have thepotential to be the source of antioxidants. The purpose of this study is to analyze the antioxidant effect ofkaffir lime leaves on the quality of spermatozoa of the mice that have been exposed to lead acetate. Methods:The literature study was conducted using narrative review technique by collecting related articles usingspecified keywords. Result: It is found that kaffir lime leaves contain hesperetin, which is the dominantflavonoid in Citrus group. The antioxidant activity of kaffir lime leaf is able to neutralize lead-induced ROS,as well as to stimulate the formation of enzymatic antioxidants. Conclusions: Ethanol extract of kaffir limeleaves can improve the quality of spermatozoa of the mice that have been exposed to lead acetate.

Abstract

Hypertension is a degenerative disease that is often found in conjunction with other degenerative diseases.The study was aimed at analyzing ecologically the factors related to the prevalence of hypertension inIndonesia. The study was conducted using secondary data from the 2018 Indonesia Basic Health Survey.All provinces were taken as samples. Apart from the prevalence of hypertension, 4 other variables analyzedas independent variables were the prevalence of obesity, the percentage of the population with less physicalactivity, the percentage of daily smokers, and the percentage of the population with salty food consumptionhabits ? 1 per day. Data were analyzed using a scatter plot. The results of the study found that the higherthe prevalence of obesity in a province, the higher the prevalence of hypertension in that province. Thehigher the percentage of the population with less physical activity in a province, the higher the prevalenceof hypertension in that province. The higher the percentage of daily smokers in a province, the higher theprevalence of hypertension in that province. The higher the percentage of the population with salty foodconsumption habits ? 1 per day, the higher the prevalence of hypertension in that province. It was concludedthat the four independent variables analyzed ecologically were positively related to the prevalence ofhypertension in Indonesia.

Abstract

Background: Drug allergy in children is a rare case that needs special attention. Identifying the factorsthat affect the severity of drug allergy is important for the improvement of drug allergy management inIndonesian children. Objective: to analyze the factors that influence drug allergy severity in Indonesianchildren. Methods: This study used a retrospective design and consecutive sampling in 2014-2018. The datacollected included sex, types of allergy-causing drugs, previous allergy history, parental allergy history, andclinical manifestations. The data were analyzed by using a logistic regression test where the statistical testresults were significant if p <0.05. Results: The average age of the participants was 93.00 ± 50.54 monthswith a median value of 84 (12 - 204) months. Drug allergy severity in children is influenced by severalthings, such as the type of drug (? = 5.76; 95% CI 1.29 - 25.70; p = 0.022), sex (? = 1.27; 95% CI 0.30 - 5.36;p = 0.743), previous allergy history (? = 2.44; 95% CI 0.10 - 58.67; p = 0.583), and a drug allergy history onparents (? = 0.65; 95% CI 0.06 - 6.75; p = 0.719). Conclusion: There is a significant relationship betweendrug allergy severity and the type of drug whereas sex, previous allergy history, and a history of allergy onparents do not find a significant connection.
