Abstract

Background: COVID-19 is a pandemic disease caused by droplet infection from SARS-CoV-2. Due to its rapidtransmission and high case fatality rate, the identification of risk factors and prognostic factors is important.Obesity is a risk factor for poor outcomes in COVID-19. It is associated with chronic inflammation, disorders of theimmune system. Obesity can be determined based on BMI. Chest X-Ray is supported in establishing the diagnosisand prognosis of COVID-19 patients. Assessment of the severity index of Chest X-Ray radiographs can use theModified Chest X-Ray Scoring System of RSUP Dr. Soetomo. This study was conducted to analyze the relationshipbetween BMI and chest radiography severity index in hospitalized COVID-19 patients at dr. Mohammad HoesinPalembang in 2021.Methods: This research used a cross-sectional analytic observational design. Sampling was done using aconsecutive sampling technique with 70 samples and obtained from the patient's medical record. The data wereanalyzed by univariate and bivariate (Chi-Square) using IBM SPSS Statistics 26 software.Results: Patients with BMI Overweight-Obesity had more in Moderate-Severe (18.6%) radiographic severityindex scores (18.6%) than Normal-Mild (15.7%). Chi-Square bivariate analysis, BMI (p=0.033; p-value <0.05) hada significant relationship with the chest radiographic severity index with Odds Ratio 3,00, 95% CI (1,073–8,386).Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between body mass index and chest radiography severity index inCOVID-19 patients. Overweight-Obesity BMI patients have a 3-fold chance of having a Moderate-Severe categoryof radiographic severity index compared to Underweight-Normal BMI patients.

Abstract

Ovarian cysts are structures that appear on ovaries, their size reaches 2.5 cm in diameter or greater remainingfor 10 days or more if they are untreated. They are classified into three major categories includes follicularcysts, luteinized follicular cysts, and cystic corpora luteal result in failure of reproduction in dairy cows. Thereisasignificant depression in the mean values of FSH and LH in the repeat breeder cows (infected group) whencompared with the normal cows (control group). There is a significant elevation in the mean values of theprolactin hormone in the repeat breeder cows. In recommendation, balanced feeding to dairy cows with highmilk production would decrease the risk factors associated with cystic ovary syndrome.

Abstract

Leptospirosis is a common bacterial infection caused by pathogenic Leptospira spp.in tropical region, including inIndonesia. During the first year of COVID-19 pandemic, Jakarta reported a significant increase in leptospirosis cases.A study was conducted to analyze the distribution of leptospirosis and to identify hotspots of the leptospirosis.Leptospirosis notifications for the period of January to December 2020 were collected from the online surveillancedatabase provided by the Provincial Health Office of Jakarta. Global and local spatial clustering at the villagelevel across Jakarta was examined using Moran’s I and local indicators for spatial association (LISA). In 2020,total of 207 people infected by Leptospira spp. The highest number was recorded in January (n=142), accountingfor 68.5% of the total reports over the period studied. The incidence was geographically dissimilar at village-levelwith the highest rates was observed in the west of the city. Moran’s I analysis demonstrates that leptospirosisincidence was significantly clustered (I = 0.191, p-value = 0.001). Total of 19 high-risk clusters in 9 sub-districtswere identified and approximately 891,202 people were at higher risk of leptospirosis during the year of 2020. Thefindings suggest needs an improved disease surveillance to support spatially targeted interventions to controlleptospirosis transmission.

Abstract

The prevalence of stunting in Indonesia is still above WHO standards, so it needs to be addressed immediately,given the adverse effects on individuals and countries. This study aims to analyze the incidence of stunting inEast Java by paying attention to the proximity of the area as an effort to solved stunting problems. The studywas conducted using secondary data from 2017 from official government agency reports. Administrative area(regency/city) analysis unit. Analysis using spatial regression test. The results show that Moran’s I test showsa spatial dependency or location autocorrelation (p <0.20). The Lagrange Multiplier SAR spatial regression testcan explain that spatial factors can increase 5% greater (75%) of the 5 selected factors that cause toddler stunting,compared to using the OLS classic regression test. It could be concluded that spatial factors, namely geographicareas, can increase the percentage of clarity in the regression modeling for the incidence of stunting in an area. Inthis study, spatial factors are known to be associated with regional proximity and ethnic similarity, namely theMadurese ethnicity.

Abstract

Callistemon viminalis, often known as the stream bottlebrush, is a tropical plant in the Myrtaceae familyand is renowned for its ability to grow rapidly in riparian zones. It is exclusively found in New South Wales,Queensland, and Western Australia. The roots of this species are entangled, which helps stabilize the soil, whichreduces the danger of erosion. This plant has antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant, and other pharmacologicaland insecticidal abilities that are also related to other medicinal properties. This research investigates the benefits,applications, and features of several extracts obtained from components of C. viminalis (branches, flowers, fruits,bark, and leaves). Bioactive compounds were characterized in detail by noting their chemical structures. The useof C. viminalis in folk medicine was fully supported by the results. Collecting and compounding plant materials,including processing, drying, and grinding, and then doing research to screen pharmaceutical effects, are all partof making the cure. Rats had their wound healing ability tested using a method known as in vitro experimentation.This method relies on excision wounds. The capacity of the extracted substance to close wounds when appliedas an ointment was shown to be greater than in the control. The epithelization time in the standard and treatedgroups was significantly shorter than in the basic ointment base treatment group. The group treated with 5% w/wextract ointment had greater traction intensity than the control group (1.96 gm/mm2), with a significant differenceof (1.12) gm/mm2. The tensile strength of the (3.86) gm/mm2 of the 5% w/w treated group. A substantial increasein tensile strength was seen on the tenth day for both the extract level and the normal medicine.

Abstract

Fungicides, herbicides, and insecticides are commonly agrochemicals used to eliminate pests during garliccultivation. Occupational exposure to mixed pesticides can cause hematological abnormalities. The aim of thisstudy was toassess the adverse effects of chronic mixed pesticide exposure in the garlic farmers by using thehematological parameters. The blood sample was collected from 137 Thai farmers who chronically exposed tomixed pesticide and 59 control group who were not a history of exposure to mixed pesticide. Complete BloodCount (CBC) analysis was performed to investigate the hematological parameters alteration pattern of Thaifarmers. Statistical analysis also performed by using Mann-Whitney U test. Our investigations revealed thatthemean values of white blood cell (WBC) count, lymphocyte, basophil, platelet distribution width, mean plateletvolume and platelet large cell ratio significantly decreased in the chronic exposed group but did not affect whencompared with the normal reference ranges. The results clearly demonstrated that chronic exposure to the mixedpesticides during garlic cultivation alters the hematological parameters. The farmers should be aware and checktheir health to prevent the adverse effects from pesticide intoxication.

Abstract

Background: Globally, major depression is the primary cause of disability, where a large part of cases is reportedamong the working-class.Methods: We conducted comparative cross-sectional study with 8-week observation includes mindfulnessmeditation, curcumin supplementation and sunlight exposure (MCS program) among mildly depressed officeworkers of both sexes - 34 in observed group (OG) and 34 in control group (CT). At baseline, day 30, andday 60, participants were compared in terms of (a) vitamin D, (b) brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), (c)interleukin-6 (IL-6), and (d) depression scores using PHQ-9. ELISA were performed for all serum samples.Results: The rates of increase of vitamin D in both day 0, 30 and day 30, 60 intervals were significantly higher inOG (p<0.05). BDNF levels varied extensively between the groups. IL-6 means were significantly lower in OG atday 30 than in CG (p<0.05). Depression scores rate of change demonstrated appreciable fall in day 0, 30 intervaland stayed down to day 60 in OG. Significantly, lower depression scores were observed for OG at both day 30 andday 60 (p<0.05).Conclusion: MCS program resulted in significant decreases in depression scores and some of its related biomarkers, thus can be a sustainable and cost-effective approach to alleviating psychological depression among the working-class.
