Abstract

Introduction: Melasma is a matter of concern for certain individuals due to its ability to cause changes in the visual appearance of the skin, ultimately impacting one's self-esteem and overall quality of life. Exposure to direct sunlight significantly influences the development of melasma. Indonesia's location below the equator results in a tropical environment with high temperatures throughout the year. Police officers are exposed to solar radiation for more than 6 hours every day while on duty. For certain police officers, particularly female officers, this is an issue as it can result in melasma, which affects appearances Objective: This study aims to estimate the effect of sunscreen usage in the police environment on melasma incidence in police officers. Methods: Electronic databases such as MEDLINE/PubMed, Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, EBSCO, Scopus, ProQuest, Cambridge Core, reference lists, conference proceedings, and researchers in relevant fields of study were searched. The impact of sunscreen application on the prevalence of melasma in police personnel was evaluated using many parameters Results: Based on the systematic review, police officers continue to have a very high prevalence of melasma because they have a low awareness of the importance of using sunscreen. Conclusions: Awareness of sunscreen application on the skin is required to prevent the development of melasma in police personnel. Education on the prognosis, propensity, and chronicity of melasma is extremely important. In a police institution, Dermatovenereologists (DVE) play an important role.

Abstract

Introduction: The impact of obesity greatly influences morbidity rates and leads to increase the risk of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the short-term effect of intra-articular injection of hypertonic dextrose prolotherapy (HDP) on femoral cartilage (FC) thickness among KOA with obese patients. Methods: This is a quasi-experimental clinical trial study. KOA patients with obesity registered from May to August 2023 in the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) RSUD Haji Provinsi Jawa Timur, Surabaya, Indonesia. The intervention group received an HDP injection, while the control group received a normal saline (NS) injection. The FC thickness was scanned with musculoskeletal ultrasound (US) before the intervention, 2 weeks, and 6 weeks after intervention. Mean difference within-group and intra-group was analyzed statistically with a significant value of P < 0.05. Results: 38 participants who were diagnosed with KOA and obesity were involved in this study. The FC thickness before intervention in the NS group at the LC, IC, and MC sites was 1.47 ± 0.45 1.23 ± 0.47 1.33 ± 0.49 mm, respectively, while in the HDP group it was 1.57 ± 0.70 1.38 ± 0.65 1.33 ± 0.61 mm. Within-group analysis of each group from pre-intervention until 6 weeks using repeated measurement ANOVA showed significant values in the HDP group at all sites, including LC, IC, and MC, with each value P < 0.05. Conclusions: The short-term effect of HDP injection is beneficial in increasing FC thickness in KOA with obese patients.

Abstract

Introduction: Scabies is an infectious disease of the skin caused by the mite Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis. This disease is often ignored because it is not life-threatening, but the itching that occurs can interfere with daily life. Scabies is often found in densely populated environments such as Islamic boarding schools, places where students study. Borrowing each other's personal items, living in rooms with high occupancy rates, and having poor habits regarding personal hygiene are risk factors for contracting scabies among students. Objective: Through this background, this research aims to determine the relationship between the level of personal hygiene, housing density, socioeconomic status, and the level of knowledge about scabies among students at the Islamic Boarding School, Serang, Banten. Methods: The research was carried out at the Islamic Boarding School, Serang, Banten with a sample size of 167 respondents. The research design used was a cross-sectional analytical design with a sampling technique using the simple random sampling method. Univariate analysis was carried out by assessing frequencies and percentages. Bivariate analysis of variables was carried out using the chi-square test. Multivariate analysis was performed using multiple linear regression. Results: Respondents in this study totaled 167 respondents. The results of the analysis show that the prevalence of scabies in Islamic boarding schools in Serang City is 47.3%. There is no significant relationship between personal hygiene and scabies prevalence (P = 0.603), and there is a significant relationship between housing density (P = 0.018), socioeconomic status (P = 0.002), and level of knowledge (P = 0.035) on scabies prevalence. at the Serang City Islamic Boarding School. Based on multivariate analysis, a relationship was found between residential density, socioeconomic status, and level of knowledge on scabies prevalence simultaneously. Conclusions: These research results show that factors such as housing density, socioeconomic status, and level of knowledge play an important role in the spread of scabies in Islamic boarding schools even though the students show good results in personal hygiene.

Abstract

Introduction: In response to the demand for high-quality services, healthcare providers are faced with an increasing number of hospitals in Indonesia, which encourages competition to offer these services. Patient satisfaction, influenced by their expectations and experiences of the services received, is a key indicator in evaluating service quality. Additionally, patient loyalty is established through their trust in the hospital and contributes to the sustainability of healthcare services. Objective: This literature review aims to identify factors that play a role in influencing patient loyalty and satisfaction. Methods: The inclusion criteria are articles published between 2020 and 2024, research conducted in hospitals, with open access and full text. The article selection process resulted in seven articles that will be examined further. Results: Service quality (tangible, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy), trust, and hospital image have a positive influence on patient satisfaction and loyalty. Furthermore, patient satisfaction plays a crucial role in directly reinforcing patient loyalty. Therefore, improving service quality and establishing a good hospital image is essential not only to satisfy patients but also to ensure the sustainability and competitiveness of the hospital amid increasingly fierce competition in healthcare service provision. Conclusions: The findings of this study indicate that hospital image and service quality have a positive influence on patient loyalty and satisfaction.

Abstract

Introduction: The prevalence of smoking in patients with schizophrenia is still high around 70-80%. Although reports suggest that smoking increases the risk of developing schizophrenia, the potential role of smoking in this relationship requires further investigation. Smokers with schizophrenia were more likely to have more intense positive symptoms and lower cognitive function, but the intensity of extrapyramidal side effects was reduced compared to schizophrenic patients who were non-smokers. Objectives: The purpose of the study was to explain schizophrenia, dopamine, the etiology of cigarette use in patients with schizophrenia, the mechanism of action, the relationship between schizophrenia cases and cigarettes, the management of patients with schizophrenia and the relationship between the administration of antipsychotics to patients with schizophrenia and active smokers. Methods: This research journal uses a qualitative method, namely a descriptive research method and usually uses analysis. This research journal uses secondary data sources. The data collection method used is data derived from literature studies obtained from journals, books, and dissertations of Google Scholar and PubMed. The data collection tool used is documents. Results:  The nicotine in cigarettes interacts with nicotinic receptors in the brain, affecting the release of dopamine and serotonin. This can affect negative symptoms in schizophrenic patients, although the effect on positive symptoms still needs more research to be fully understood. Although the exact mechanism is not yet fully understood, some hypotheses indicate that smoking may play a role in managing negative symptoms and influencing impaired dopamine regulation in schizophrenia. Schizophrenia patients who are also active smokers face challenges in treatment with antipsychotics such as clozapine and olanzapine. Smoking can affect the metabolism of these drugs through the induction of the CYP1A2 enzyme, so it is necessary to adjust the dosage to maintain therapeutic efficacy. Appropriate adjustment of antipsychotic doses is necessary to optimize the management of schizophrenic symptoms without increasing the risk of unwanted side effects. Conclusion: In patients with schizophrenia the production of the neurotransmitter dopamine is excessive. When dopamine levels are unbalanced, excessive or reduced, sufferers can experience both positive and negative symptoms. Although smoking may provide some benefits in reducing negative symptoms in schizophrenia, the overall impact is still complex and requires more research. Future studies are expected to better understand the mechanism of interaction between smoking and schizophrenia and develop better treatment strategies.

Abstract

Introduction: Medical science is developing very rapidly. One of the efforts to keep up with the development of medical science is to improve the quality of human resources in the health sector, especially in the medical field. However, efforts to improve the quality of human resources in the medical field are hampered because the implementation of professionalism in the field of medical education has not been achieved optimally. One of the basic foundations of the implementation of professionalism in medical students is professionalism during the teaching and learning process. Objective: This study aims to determine the implementation of the professionalism of medical faculty students during small group discussions in a qualitative study. Method: This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive-analytical approach at the Faculty of Medicine, Nahdlatul Ulama University, Surabaya. Conducted for 3 weeks from June 25, 2024, to July 15, 2024, with 5 research respondents using purposive sampling. Data collection was carried out through in-depth interviews. Data analysis used a coding system with thematic analysis. Result: The Implementation of Professionalism of Medical Faculty Students during Small Group Discussions in Qualitative Study is influenced by two factors, namely supporting factors such as student personality, student environment, and supervisor, while less supportive factors such as limited facilities and infrastructure, certain students who have a negative influence on the learning environment, and students' readiness to receive courses. Conclusion: The implementation of student professionalism during small group discussions is influenced by several factors, so continuous holistic improvement is needed so that the values of professionalism as a doctor are possessed as early as possible.
