Abstract

The issue of decreased visual acuity in children, especially in primary and junior high school ages, has not been well socialized. Many children and parents still lack understanding regarding the risk factors associated with daily activities that contribute to decreased visual acuity. This study is an analytical observational research using a cross-sectional approach. The research was conducted on all students from grade I to grade VI of SD Unggulan Al-Amin, totaling 266 individuals, and all students from grade VII to grade IX of SMP Unggulan Al-Amin, totaling 120 individuals. Data were collected through visual acuity examinations using the Snellen chart at 6 meters and interviews guided by a questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test. Among the students of SD Unggulan Al-Amin, six factors were found to have a significant relationship with decreased visual acuity based on the chi-square test. These six factors are reading position (p=0.001), frequency of cellphone use (p=0.000), duration of gadget use (p=0.001), gadget usage position (p=0.040), distance while watching TV (p=0.046), and distance from eyes to cellphone screen (p=0.019). Among the students of SMP Unggulan Al-Amin, eight factors were found to have a significant relationship, including reading position (p=0.00), frequency of cellphone use (p=0.000), duration of gadget use (p=0.000), gadget usage position (p=0.000), frequency of TV watching (p=0.001), duration of TV watching (p=0.000), distance while watching TV (p=0.000), and distance from eyes to cellphone screen (p=0.000). Decreased visual acuity was experienced by 56.8% of students from SD Unggulan Al-Amin and 18.3% of students from SMP Unggulan Al-Amin. There is a significant relationship between risk factors and decreased visual acuity, including reading position, frequency of cellphone use, duration of gadget use, gadget usage position, frequency of TV watching, duration of TV watching, distance while watching TV, and distance from eyes to cellphone screen.

Abstract

Stunting is a linear growth disorder that is indicated by length / age Z score less than minus 2 SD, and categorized as low nutritional status. Short birth length, Infectious diseases such as diarrhea, and Acute Respiratory Infection are indicated to be factors that cause stunting. Objectives The study aimed to analyze the risk factors of short birth length, diarrheal disease, and acute respiratory infection of stunting among children 12-59 months. Methods The study used is quantitative witch a designed case-control study. The subjects were children between 12-59 months. The sample in this study was 120 consisting of 40 stunted and 80 normal. Subjects were chosen by purposive sampling methods. instrument of this research is microtonal, weight scale, and questionnaire. The results of the study were analyzed by chi-square statistics, odds ratio, and logistic regression. The results showed that birth length (PBL) (P = 0.001), diarrhea (P = 0.000), and ARI (P = 0.030) were associated with stunting in children under five. However, after multiple logistic regression analyses, ARI was not significantly associated (P = 0.126). The risk factors for stunting in children under five are diarrhea (OR = 58.134) and short birth length (OR = 9.625).Conclusion: The risk factors for stunting were short birth length and diarrheal disease.

Among the cities in the province, Medan stands out with the highest prevalence of Type II DM patients. The data indicates that in 2018 alone, the number of DM patients in Medan reached 7,826, solidifying its status as the primary contributor to the overall prevalence of DM in North Sumatra. The focal point of this research is to assess the understanding of the connection between HbA1c levels and complications in Type II Diabetes Mellitus patients, particularly those receiving care at Royal Prima Hospital in Medan. Employing a cross-sectional research design, the study involved 85 participants selected through purposive sampling, and data analysis was conducted using SPSS software. The study's outcomes highlight a significant relationship between HbA1c levels and complications in Type II Diabetes Mellitus patients at Royal Prima Hospital in Medan. This association is substantiated by the chi-square test results, yielding a p-value of 0.000, which is less than the significance threshold of 0.05. This statistical significance implies a robust and noteworthy correlation between HbA1c levels and the occurrence of complications in patients with Type II Diabetes Mellitus at the mentioned hospital.

Abstract

One of the most prevalent dangerous illnesses is arthritis. The pathophysiology of gastritis is an imbalance of aggressive and protective factors. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are known as aggressive agents for the development of gastritis. Gastritis can be managed using avocado leaves. Finding out how an avocado leaf ethanol extract changed the amount of stomach acid in aspirin-treated rats was the aim of the investigation. Secondary metabolite content and characterisation were examined in the avocado leaf ethanol extract. Gastric acid reduction was performed by examining gastric acid concentration, number of ulcers, ulcer index, and pH in aspirin-induced rats. Ethanol extract of avocado leaves contains alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, steroids, tannins and glycosides. Characterization obtained moisture content of 12.60%, total ash content of 1.34% and acid insoluble ash content of 0.17%. Acid concentration in the administration of avocado leaf ethanol extract 400 mg/KgBW is 16.00 ± 2.65 significantly different from the negative control 27.67 ± 2.52. The number of ulcers on the administration of avocado leaf ethanol extract 400 mg/KgBW 1.67 ± 2.08 is significantly different from the negative control 5.33 ± 0.58. When avocado leaf ethanol extract 400 mg/ kgBW is administered, the ulcer index (0.003 ± 0.005) differs significantly from the negative control (0.014 ± 0.013). pH in the administration of avocado leaf ethanol extract 400 mg / kgBW 5.53 ± 0.57 is significantly different from the negative control 2.57 ± 0.12. The ethanol extract of avocado leaf 400 mg/kgBW has a reducing gastric acid effect.
