Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the computational and experimental potential of alkaloid compounds isolated from Papaver somniferum as dual inhibitors of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in an in vitro inflammatory model. The alkaloid fraction was purified from dried capsules/latex of Papaver somniferum and subsequently tested using lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. Anti-inflammatory activity was assessed by measuring reductions in prostaglandin E₂ (PGE₂) production as an indicator of COX-2 inhibition and TNF-α levels in the cell culture supernatant. Preliminary safety evaluation was conducted using an MTT cytotoxicity assay on non-tumor cells, along with analysis of COX-2 and TNF-α gene expression using RT-qPCR. The alkaloid fraction exhibited concentration-dependent inhibitory effects on both PGE₂ and TNF-α production, with IC₅₀ values observed within the intermediate concentration range. In contrast, the CC₅₀ value in non-tumor cells was substantially higher, resulting in a favorable selectivity index that suggests a relatively wide therapeutic window. Furthermore, treatment with non-toxic concentrations of the alkaloid fraction led to a significant downregulation of COX-2 and TNF-α mRNA expression, supporting the hypothesis that its anti-inflammatory mechanism involves modulation of pro-inflammatory transcriptional pathways. Overall, the alkaloid fraction derived from Papaver somniferum demonstrates promising potential as a multitarget anti-inflammatory agent and warrants further investigation as a source of lead compounds or phytopharmaceutical candidates for the treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases.

Abstract

Patients’ revisit intention represents a crucial indicator of hospital service sustainability and is strongly influenced by service quality and patient satisfaction. Amid increasingly intense competition among healthcare providers, hospitals are required to develop innovative strategies that emphasize value creation and patient experience. The Blue Ocean Strategy approach, combined with patient satisfaction measurement using the Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI), offers a strategic alternative for enhancing hospital competitiveness. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between the implementation of the Blue Ocean Strategy and the Customer Satisfaction Index with patient satisfaction, as well as their association with inpatient revisit intention at Permata Hati Mother and Child Hospital, Makassar City. This study employed an analytic quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 190 hospitalized patients were selected as respondents using purposive sampling techniques. Data were analyzed descriptively and bivariately using Pearson correlation and Chi-square tests. The results indicated that the majority of respondents were aged 30–39 years, female, and users of the National Health Insurance (BPJS Kesehatan) scheme. Bivariate analysis revealed a significant relationship between the implementation of the Blue Ocean Strategy and inpatient satisfaction (p < 0.05), as well as a significant association between the Customer Satisfaction Index and patient satisfaction (p < 0.05). Furthermore, patient satisfaction was found to be significantly associated with inpatient revisit intention at Permata Hati Mother and Child Hospital, Makassar City (p < 0.05). In conclusion, the implementation of innovative service strategies and higher levels of patient satisfaction are significantly associated with inpatients’ revisit intention.

Abstract

The insertion of a urinary catheter is a routine procedure in various surgical interventions to keep the bladder empty; however, prolonged catheterization is known to increase the risk of urinary tract infection (UTI) through biofilm formation, bacterial colonization, and enhanced antimicrobial resistance. This study aims to compare postoperative UTI risk between short-term and long-term catheterization to determine the safest optimal duration. The research method uses a narrative literature review of nationally and internationally indexed journals published between 2015 and 2025, using keywords related to CAUTI, short-term catheterization, long-term catheterization, and catheter duration. Analysis of 25 cohort studies showed that long-term catheter use (>7 days) results in a significantly higher incidence of CAUTI (26.7% vs 7.1%) with a relative risk of 3.84, with infection onset rising sharply from day 3 and reaching a plateau after day 14, as well as a predominance of multidrug-resistant pathogens such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterococcus faecalis. The pathogenesis involves mature biofilm formation by days 7–10, increased expression of resistance genes, and enhanced horizontal gene transfer. These findings confirm that catheter duration is the strongest independent risk factor for CAUTI, and strategies such as early catheter removal, nurse-driven removal protocols, antimicrobial-coated catheters, and closed drainage systems have been shown to reduce CAUTI incidence by 40–60%. In conclusion, short-term catheterization is significantly safer than long-term use, and implementing protocols to reduce catheter duration is the most effective measure in preventing postoperative CAUTI.

Abstract

Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI) is defined as a decline in ovarian function before the age of 40, with an estimated prevalence of approximately 3.7%, particularly higher in countries with low to medium Human Development Index (HDI). POI can negatively affect both physical and psychological health in women. Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) is widely recognized as a biomarker to assess ovarian reserve. Recently, Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy has been investigated as a novel approach to enhance AMH levels and rejuvenate ovarian function in POI patients. To evaluate the effect of PRP-based ovarian rejuvenation therapy on AMH levels in women with POI. This retrospective observational analytic study involved 33 women diagnosed with POI who underwent PRP ovarian rejuvenation therapy at Bali Royal Hospital between 2022 and 2024. Total sampling was employed, and secondary data were obtained from patient medical records. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate methods, specifically paired-sample t-tests. The study included 33 women with a mean age of 35.62 ± 5.68 years. The mean baseline AMH level was 0.53 ± 0.34 ng/mL, which increased to 0.66 ± 0.46 ng/mL three months after PRP therapy. Statistical analysis demonstrated a significant increase in AMH levels following PRP treatment (p ≤ 0.05). A statistically significant difference in AMH levels was observed before and three months after PRP-based ovarian rejuvenation therapy in women with POI treated at Bali Royal Hospital during the 2022–2024 period. These findings indicate that PRP may represent a promising adjunctive therapy for improving ovarian reserve in patients with POI.

Abstract

Preeclampsia is a pathological condition characterized by an increase in blood pressure after 20 weeks of gestation, which may be accompanied by proteinuria as well as signs of organ dysfunction such as impaired liver, kidney, nervous system, and hematological function. The method used is a narrative review design of international literature from 2016–2025 obtained from Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect, ClinicalKey, and Garuda (Garba Rujukan Digital), using the keywords “preeclampsia,”“risk factors of preeclampsia,” “maternal risk factors,” “faktor risiko preeklamsia,” and “preeclampsia in pregnancy.” The results of the review indicate that preeclampsia is multifactorial, meaning it is not caused by a single factor but rather a combination of biological conditions, medical history, and maternal demographic characteristics. Medical and reproductive factors such as a history of hypertension and preeclampsia where women who previously experienced preeclampsia or have chronic hypertension have the highest risk primigravida (first pregnancy), and comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus, obesity (high BMI), and kidney disease further increase the burden on blood vessels.

Abstract

The National Quality Indicators (NQI) are instruments used to measure and evaluate the quality of healthcare services at health facilities, including Independent Medical and Dental Practices (IMDPs). Compliance with NQI reporting is an important component in monitoring and improving healthcare quality; however, its implementation still faces various challenges. This study aims to analyze the factors influencing compliance with National Quality Indicator reporting at Independent Medical and Dental Practices. This study employed a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method guided by the PRISMA framework. Literature searches were conducted through Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and Garuda for articles published between 2021 and 2025. Articles were selected based on predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria and subsequently analyzed using a narrative synthesis approach. The review findings indicate that NQI reporting compliance is influenced by individual, organizational, and support system factors. Individual factors include the knowledge, understanding of quality indicators, competence, and motivation of healthcare workers. Organizational factors encompass management support, quality culture, supervision, audits, and feedback. Support system factors include workload, resource availability, and the utilization of information technology and health information systems. Knowledge and understanding of quality indicators were identified as the most dominant factors in improving reporting compliance. NQI reporting compliance at Independent Medical and Dental Practices is influenced by various interrelated factors. Improving reporting compliance requires strengthening the competencies of healthcare workers, optimizing health information systems, organizational support, and continuous monitoring and evaluation to support the improvement of healthcare service quality.

Abstract

Pneumonia remains one of the major respiratory infections affecting children and is often associated with increased morbidity, prolonged hospitalization, and higher healthcare burden. Neutrophils play an important role in the inflammatory response to infection and may serve as a useful laboratory indicator for evaluating disease severity and clinical outcomes in pediatric pneumonia. This study aimed to determine the relationship between increased neutrophil levels and length of hospitalization among pediatric pneumonia patients at Ibnu Sina Hospital Makassar during January to December 2025. This research used an observational analytic design with a cross sectional approach based on secondary data from medical records. The study population consisted of pediatric patients aged 0 to 18 years diagnosed with pneumonia, with complete blood count data available. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate analysis, with the Chi Square test applied to determine statistical significance. The results showed that most pediatric pneumonia patients were aged 1 to 10 years, were slightly more likely to be male, and were predominantly treated as inpatients. Most patients had a length of hospitalization of more than 4 days. Neutrophil examination showed that 50 patients had increased neutrophil levels, 38 had normal levels, and 9 had decreased levels. The analysis demonstrated a significant relationship between neutrophil levels and the incidence of pneumonia with a p value of 0.046. Furthermore, increased neutrophil levels were significantly associated with length of hospitalization, with a p value of 0.001. These findings indicate that increased neutrophil levels may reflect the severity of inflammatory response in pediatric pneumonia and may be useful as a clinical indicator for predicting longer hospitalization.

Abstract

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) in pregnant women are among the most common health problems and may lead to serious complications for both the mother and the fetus. Physiological changes during pregnancy increase the risk of infection as well as recurrence of UTIs. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of risk factors and effective preventive strategies is essential. This study aims to analyze the risk factors and preventive measures for recurrent UTIs in pregnant women based on current literature. This study employed a narrative review approach by examining various scientific articles obtained from databases including PubMed, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, Garuda, and Neliti. The literature search was conducted using keywords relevant to the research topic. Results of the research showed that the main risk factors for UTIs in pregnant women include hormonal and anatomical changes, a history of previous UTIs, poor personal hygiene, sexual activity, and medical conditions such as diabetes mellitus. In addition, asymptomatic bacteriuria plays an important role in increasing the risk of complications. Effective preventive measures include routine screening, culture-based treatment of urine samples, health education, and the implementation of clean and healthy lifestyle practices. The occurrence and recurrence of UTIs in pregnant women are multifactorial in nature, requiring a comprehensive management approach to reduce risks and improve maternal and fetal health outcomes.
