Abstract

Background: COVID-19 infection has become a pandemic due to the continuously increasing number of confirmed cases worldwide, making it necessary to establish effective control and prevention measures against the spread of COVID-19. Antiseptic hand sanitizers can help prevent the transmission of infectious diseases. However, conventional hand sanitizers, which contain alcohol and synthetic chemicals, are relatively expensive and often cause skin health issues. Therefore, it is important to explore natural antiseptic alternatives as active ingredients for hand sanitizers that are more affordable, safe, effective, and accessible to all segments of society. One such medicinal plant is Moringa (Moringa oleifera), which has long been cultivated and used for traditional medicine. Objective: This study aimed to determine the potential of Moringa leaf (Moringa oleifera) extract as an active ingredient in natural hand sanitizer formulations. Methods: This study used a true experimental design with a posttest-only control group design. The treatment groups consisted of a positive control (alcohol-based hand sanitizer), a negative control (sterile aquadest), and Moringa leaf extract at concentrations of 100%, 75%, 50%, 25%, 10%, 5%, and 1%, with each group tested in triplicate against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Data were analyzed using One-Way ANOVA at a 95% confidence level. Results: The antibacterial activity test results showed that Moringa leaf extract has antibacterial potential against the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The One-Way ANOVA analysis indicated a p-value of 0.000, which is lower than α = 0.05, meaning there was a significant difference in the mean diameter of the inhibition zones between the treatment groups. Conclusion: Moringa leaf (Moringa oleifera) extract has potential as an active ingredient for natural hand sanitizer formulations. Keywords : Moringa oleifera in NTT, Hand sanitizer, Antibacterial.

Abstract

Background : Learning in medical faculty which has a stressfull environment will have negative effects and one of them is communication anxiety within students. Anxiety risks having a negative impact on students’ academic records, one of them in the form of PBL (Problem Based Learning) which emphasizes on tutorial based disscussions. Goal : To identify the correlation between communication anxiety rates and students’ activities within PBL at Medical Faculty, Nusa Cendana University. Method : This research is a quantitative research with a cohort prospective approach done on Medical Faculty Nusa Cendana University students class of 2019 by collecting PRCA-24 quesioners and PBL scores. Samples are gathered utilizing the simple random sampling with 43 respondants whom fullfill inclusive and exclusive requirements. The research was analyzed univaria-tly, bivariate-ly chi-square method. Results: Research about the correlation between communication anxiety rates and student activeness in PBL obtained p-value = 0.092 (> ∝ = 0.05) and r = 0,249. This means that the communication anxiety rates does not always affect PBL activeness because there are still other factors that support each other, such as the adaptation process that affects students, facilitators and scenarios that affect activeness in PBL, and self-confidence that affects communication anxiety among students. Conclusion : There has not been found any correlation between communication anxiety rates and students’ activities within Problem Based Learning at Medical Faculty Nusa Cendana University

Abstract

Hypertension, known as the "silent killer," poses a global threat with potentially fatal consequences. Lifelong treatment, often involving Amlodipine, requires careful management of age, dosage, and administration to mitigate side effects and enhance patients' quality of life. This study at RSUD Prof. Dr. W. Z. Johannes Kupang aimed to explore the correlation between age, Amlodipine dosage, and side effect risks. Utilizing an observational analytic method with a cross-sectional approach, data from 84 patients, aged 15-70, were collected between May and October 2023. Predominant side effects included edema (38.10%), dizziness (28.57%), fatigue (17.85%), and nausea (15.48%). Findings indicated age (p=0.013) and Amlodipine dosage (p=0.002) correlated with side effect risks. However, administration method analysis was hindered by consistent post-meal consumption in all participants. In conclusion, this research underscores the relevance of age and Amlodipine dosage in side effect risks for hypertensive patients. Practical implications include refined medication management strategies to improve overall patient well-being.

Abstract

The increase in sexual violence, especially among teenagers in Indonesia, which occurs in various environments such as homes, schools and communities is an important problem to pay attention to. Sexual violence can take various forms of action, including physical and psychological abuse. Surveys show that many teenagers experience sexual violence, especially during dating, with negative impacts such as loss of self-confidence and self-esteem. This research is to measure the impact of peer assisted learning methods on changes in attitudes and subjective norms in implementing PSEA in the educational environment. The Theory of Planned Behavior is used as a theoretical framework to examine the influence of the PAL method on changes in attitudes and subjective norms of Nusa Cendana University students regarding PSEA.Objective To determine the influence of the peer assisted learning method in protection of sexual exploitation and abuse training on changes in the attitude towards the behavior & subjective norms of the UNDANA academic community in implementing PSEA. This research was conducted at Nusa Cendana University using non-proportional cluster sampling techniques. The sample consisted of 30 tutors (members of the PPKS Task Force, HPU team, and Laskar Sehat) as well as the academic community (students and staff) from various units at UNDANA. The research used a quasi experimental two-group design with pretest-posttest design, involving two treatment groups. Each group took part in training on PSEA, measured through three stages of measurement: pretest before training, posttest 1 after tutor training, and posttest 2 after tutee training by the tutor. Data were analyzed using normality and homogeneity tests, as well as repeated measure ANOVA and Paired Samples T-Test. Coordination steps, preparation of questionnaires, and data analysis were carried out carefully, resulting in new insights regarding protection against sexual exploitation and violence on the UNDANA campus environment. Training on protection against sexual exploitation and violence using the PAL method has proven to be effective in improving the Attitude Toward the Behavior and Subjective Norms of the UNDANA academic community regarding PSEA. The statistical test results showed significance in the tutor group (p 0.001) and the tutee group (p 0.001). Improvements in attitudes and subjective norms were seen in both groups, confirming that the PAL method was effective in influencing UNDANA's perception of PSEA.
