Abstract

Background. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is a benign tumor that most often occurs in men. Many risk factors could cause BPH, one of which is diabetes mellitus (DM). Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disease, characterized by hyperglycemia. Method. This study was conducted at the Urology Polyclinic of the Universitas  Sumatera Utara Hospital from August to September 2019. A total of 102 patients diagnosed with BPH were registered by cross-sectional study approach. Detailed medical history and physical examination were performed for all patients to diagnose BPH. While the diagnosis of DM was according to patient history or diabetic-medicine use. International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) were completed by all patients to obtain a LUTS degree. Result. From a total of 102 patients diagnosed with BPH there were 97 patients were selected. The mean age of patients was 70.43 ± 7.52 year (range 50-88 year) and the total IPSS score was 17.55 ± 6.55. DM patients were more likely to report severe LUTS and the symptom score evaluated with IPSS was significantly higher than in non non-DM group: 21.69 ± 5.41 vs 16.70 ± 6.41 (p=0.005). For the IPSS subscores, the DM group also show higher storage: 8.38 ± 4.57 vs 5.88 ± 3.72 (p = 0.02), voiding: 9.69 ± 2.47 vs 8.14 ± 3.21, (p= 0.039) and post micturition: 3.63 ± 1.26 vs 2.69 ± 1.744, (p= 0.045) symptoms significantly. Conclusion: Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia patients with DM manifested more severe lower urinary tract symptoms. Storage, voiding, post micturition, and urgency symptoms were also greater.

Abstract

Background: Obesity, as defined by the WHO is an abnormal fat consolidation or excessive fat deposit. Those excessive fat deposits have been known to be the risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. One such additive is known to improve the taste of the food is Monosodium Glutamate (MSG). The purpose of the study is to determine the effects of MSG on weight gain. Methods: This is a simple experimental design with a pretest-posttest design. The study was conducted in the Animal House laboratories of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences Universitas Sumatera Utara between October and November of 2019. The sample in this experiment is male Wistar rats aged 10-11 weeks that will be fed with standard animal feed mixed with MSG. There are 2 groups of rats (each group 16 rats), one group 1 (non-MSG), and group 2 (MSG). The rats were fed with animal feed (ad labium) for 31 days. The feed given every single day will be weighed and documented. The subcutaneous fat was taken from the abdominal and axillary regions. Result. After 31 days of treatment, re-weighing of both groups of animals was carried out. The initial weight, final weight, total weight gain, total fat extracted and total feed consumed was not different significant (p>0,05). Conclusion. The feeding of MSG for 31 days, did not have significant effects on weight gain. A longer time is needed for evaluation of MSG effect on weight gain
