Abstract

Lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) is a highly aggressive lymphoblast neoplasm due to the presence of clonal hematopoietic stem cell abnormalities of B or T cell origin. LBL represents 30% of pediatric non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. We report a 2-year-11-month-old boy with complaints of a lump in the abdomen and facial paralysis on the left side. weight loss of 3 kg in 3 months, frequent nausea and vomiting, and constipation. On physical examination, the face was not symmetrical on the left and right. palpable mass from the right iliac region to the left iliac, measuring 17.5 x 10 x 5 cm, immobile, rubbery consistency. There is lymphadenopathy right inguinal region et sinistra. Abdominal ultrasound without contrast showed ileocolic intussusception, with histopathological results showing malignant non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The therapy given was chemotherapy according to the protocol for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Facial nerve paralysis and intussusception are rare clinical features of LBL. It is important to consider a differential diagnosis such as LBL in a patient with a lump accompanied by facial nerve paralysis and intussusception. Histopathological and immunohistochemical examination were needed.Keywords:  Lymphoblastic Lymphoma; Facial Nerve Paralysis; Intussusception

Abstract

In Gorontalo, the total number of HIV/AIDS cases in June 2021 is 64, and homosexuals occupy the highest position, with 34 patients. The term “homosexuals” is historically used to diagnose medical/mental illnesses, and cross-dresser is an alternative term to replace it. The number of cross-dressers in Gorontalo is around 350. Based on the CDC, an HIV check-up is the first step in getting care, treatment, and controlling the disease for people living with HIV and keeping others safe. The novelty in this study was to see the relationship between cognitive factors and the social environment with HIV/AIDS check-up activeness rates among cross-dressers in gorontalo. This research aims to determine the significant relationship between the cognitive factor and the social environment with the activeness of HIV/AIDS examinations in cross-dressers in Gorontalo, Indonesia. The population is 60 people and the sample is 52 cross-dressers. Independent variables used are the cognitive factor (knowledge and attitude) and social environment (support from fellow cross-dressers), while the dependent variable is the HIV/AIDS check-up activeness rates among cross-dressers. This research found that most of the respondents were cross-dressers aged between 25 and 29 years and participants mostly went to Community Health Center for HIV/AIDS check-ups. However, some participants did not go or find out how to do the HIV/AIDS check-up. The conclusion that cognitive factor (knowledge and attitude) was not associated with HIV/AIDS check-up activeness rates among cross-dresser because they failed to reject the null hypothesis. In comparison, social environment (support from fellow cross-dressers) was associated with HIV/AIDScheck-up activeness rates among cross-dressers because it rejected the null hypothesis.

Abstract

The incidence of hypertension in adulthood begins with an increase in blood pressure since adolescence and high blood pressure in adolescents is also associated with an increased risk of Chronic Heart Disease (CHD) as an adult. Consumption of natrium may lead positively associated with an increase in blood pressure in adolescence. The novelty of this study is because it examines the relationship between sodium consumption and blood pressure in adolescent girls. This study aims to analyze the relationship between sodium consumption and blood pressure in adolescent girls in Tasikmalaya, West Java. This research is an observational study with a cross-sectional study design. The population in this study were all female adolescents aged 12-18 years. The independent variables in this study were total sodium consumption, sodium consumption in snacks, sodium consumption in the main menu and sodium contribution from snacks. The natrium intake was measured by non consecutive recall method. The dependent variable was blood pressure measured by sphygmomanometer Omron HEM8712. The data were analyze by Pearson product moment test. The average total sodium consumption is 506.6mg and blood pressure is 113mmH. There was a positive relationship between total daily sodium (p=0.00; r=0.240), sodium in snacks (p=0.002; 0.162), and sodium in daily menus (p=0.001; r-0.182) with  blood pressure. The conclusion natrium intake was correlated with blood pressure in adolescent girls, therefore, they should aware with high sodium food.Keywords : Sodium; Blood pressure; Snacks; Adolescent girls.

Abstract

About 33 percent of the global population is anemic. Anemia of chronic disease (ACD) is caused by chronic inflammation. Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is caused by a decrease in the body's iron reserves to form red blood cells. There are many clinical and laboratory similarities between ACD and IDA, but the treatment is very different. Transferrin saturation level can be used to differentiate between the two. This research is novel because it compares transferrin saturation levels in chronic and iron deficiency anemia. This study aims to determine the transferrin saturation level in patients with ACD and IDA. This research method uses a cross-sectional study. Data taken from medical records. The sample for this study were children with ACD and IDA aged 1 month to 18 years at Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital, Makassar. The results showed that the mean transferrin saturation value in DKA children (19.40%) was higher than that in ADB children (5.66%). The Mann-Whitney test showed that there was a significant difference between the two groups (p=0.001) with a transferrin saturation cut-off point between the DKA and IDA groups of 6.5% with a sensitivity of 73.6%, a specificity of 72.5%, positive predictive value (PPV) of 78%, negative predictive value (NPV) of 67%, and odds ratio (OR) of 19,476 (95% CI). In conclusion, transferrin saturation levels can differentiate IDA and ACD using a cut-off point of 6.5%.

Abstract

AbstractBeta thalassemia is an autosomal recessive genetic condition affecting people worldwide, including in Indonesia. Malondialdehyde levels, a peroxidation product, can be used to see if there is an iron buildup in the body due to lifelong transfusions. This research is a novelty because it analyzes malondialdehyde levels in children with beta-thalassemia: a cross-section study. The study aims to analyze malondialdehyde levels in children with beta-thalassemia. Methods in this study, a cross-sectional investigation was carried out at Dr. Hospital Wahidin Sudirohusodo, Makassar. The study was carried out between April and August of 2022. The study sample consisted of participants diagnosed with beta-thalassemia and non-thalassemia (controls) eligible to participate. Patients with and without beta-thalassemia had their malondialdehyde levels measured. The study results showed that the 60 children, aged six months until 18 years, were separated into two groups, 30 of whom had beta-thalassemia and another 30 who did not. With a significant P-value of 0.000, it was determined that beta-thalassemia children had more substantial amounts of malondialdehyde than children without the condition. Children with beta-thalassemia major had significantly higher malondialdehyde levels than those with beta-thalassemia HbE (P-value = 0.000). The conclusion was that malondialdehyde levels were more significant in beta-thalassemia kids than non-thalassemia kids. Malondialdehyde values are more effective in kids with beta-thalassemia major than those with beta-HbE thalassemia.Keywords: Malondialdehyde; Beta thalassemia; Transfusion; Children.

Abstract

The disposal of disposable masks has raised concerns among environmentalists. Disposable medical mask waste is currently easy to find because people throw it away everywhere in intact condition. When people throw away masks carelessly, it is difficult to distinguish the use of shows by people with excellent or diseased health conditions. The problem in this research is the improper management of medical masks. This research method aims to analyze the frequency of using masks when leaving the house and the practice of processing medical mask waste used by the people of Gorontalo City. This type of research is quantitative with a cross-sectional design and analytic descriptive method. The population in this study were all people living in the City of Gorontalo in 2 sub-districts, namely Kota Timur and Kota Utara, with a sample size of 379 samples from the City of East and 377 representatives from the City of North. The results showed that the processing of medical masks in Gorontalo City during the Covid-19 Pandemic was not on target; this was evidenced by the processing of medical mask waste in Kota Timur District, which was disposed of carelessly as much as 36.5%, while medical mask waste was processed by cutting and 16.7% were burnt for the East Kota sub-district and 15.9% processed and reused. This study concluded that in the processing of medical masks in Gorontalo City during the Covid-19 pandemic for the East City District, many were still disposed of carelessly. In contrast, most medical mask users were washed and reused for the North City District. In comparison, for the North sub-district, it was 4.2%; even out of the 377 respondents surveyed, 361 medical mask users washed and reused. This is very worrying for environmental experts because the repeated use of medical masks will particularly impact oral health.Keywords: Processing; Waste; Medical mask.

Abstract

More than 40% of mothers in the world, including Indonesia, have given food other than breast milk when the baby is less than six months old. Various factors can lead to early complementary feeding in Indonesia. The novelty of this research is because it examines about factors associated with early complementary feeding in Indonesia. This study aimed to determine the factors associated with early complementary feeding in Indonesia. This study used a quantitative design and meta-analytical analysis technique. Articles were included in this study, which were searched using Google Scholar, Garuda Portal, and ISJD databases. A total of 1,157 identification articles, with keywords ((early complementary feeding, complementary feeding administration in infants aged 0-6 months, early breastfeeding or prelacteal feeding) and (factors or factors related to, risk factors, knowledge) mother or education level, family support, support health workers, promotion of complementary feeding products, baby porridge, baby biscuits, formula or culture) and (cross sectional or case control) and (region in Indonesia)). The search was performed using the Indonesian language. Fifteen articles were systematically reviewed and included in this meta-analysis.  There is no significant relationship between maternal education level, family support, support from health workers and culture with early complementary feeding in Indonesia. Mothers’ low knowledge of exclusive breastfeeding and complementary feeding is one of the factors contributing to early complementary feeding in Indonesia. Conclusion is Mother which low knowledge is at risk 2.63 times to have early introduction of complementary feeding for baby (95% Cl; 1.14-6.09).

Abstract

Air, as one of the components of the environment, is the most essential requirement in supporting life. Metabolism in the bodies of living things cannot occur without air oxygen. Air can be grouped into outdoor air and indoor air. Indoor air quality dramatically affects human health because almost 90% of human life is indoors. Indoor air quality is a problem that needs attention because it will affect human health. The emergence of poor indoor air quality is generally caused by several things, namely lack of air ventilation (52%), sources of indoor pollution (16%), outdoor pollution (10%), microbes (5%), and building materials (4 %). ), others (13%). Sources of air pollution can also come from household activities, starting from the kitchen in the form of smoke. According to several studies, air pollution from kitchens contributes significantly to ARI. The novelty of this research is that it examines ambient air quality and generator emissions. The study aimed to analyze Ambient Air Quality and Generator Emissions at PT Rekso National Foods (MC Donalds) in Gorontalo City. The results showed that the surrounding air quality still met the requirements, both CO, TSP, PM10, PM 2.5 and generator emissions. However, the noise factor still does not meet the threshold standard. This study concludes that all variables still meet predetermined threshold values except for the noise variable, which exceeds the threshold value.
