Abstract

alpha-Glucosidase inhibitor has known to be a therapeutic agent for diabetes mellitus (DM) treatment, especially type 2 DM. Based on previous studies. There are various plants that have the effect of inhibiting the activity of a-glucosidase, one of which is garu leaves (Antidesma montanum Blume). This research aimed to get the fraction which had the highest Il-glucosidase inhibiting activity from ethanol extract of garu leaves and identify the chemical compounds from the most active fraction. Simplisia powder was extracted by maseration using 80% ethanol then fractionated using n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol. Inhibitory activity test was performed by measuring absorbance of p-nitrophenol, which produced by reaction between Il-glucosidase and p-nitrophenyl-u-l)-glucopyranoside, using microplate reader at 405 nm. The result showed that ethyl acetate fraction have the best Il-glucosidase inhibitory activity with IC50 values 138.38 ppm. The test of enzyme kinetics showed that ethyl acetate fraction inhibited competitively. The phytochemical screening showed that ethyl acetate fraction of garu leaves contained glycosides, tannins, and terpenes.

Abstract

The leaves and stem woods of Synadenium glaucescens Pax. are traditionally used for treatment of various human diseases in Tanzania. However, there is limited information on the structural elucidation and toxicity properties of bioactive compounds responsible for their pharmacological properties. Thus, this study was aimed to elucidate and evaluate toxicity properties of bioactive compounds from these parts. Separation of bioactive compounds was achieved by using column chromatographic method, whereas their structures were determined by GC-MS and NMR data and by comparing with literature spectroscopic data. Toxicity properties of isolated compounds was done by brine shrimp lethality test (BSLT) method. In this study, column chromatographic separation led to isolation of tetracosane (1), hexadecyl palmitate (2), octacosane (3), tetracosanol (4) and β-sitosterol (5) from the leaves and 1-hexacosene (6), campesterol (7), octadecanoic acid (8) and tetracosanoic acid (9) from the stem woods. BSLT of compounds isolated in sufficient amount (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7) were revealed to be non-toxic to brine shrimp larvae (LC50 >100 µg/ml). Except compound 5, this study reports the isolation of other eight (8) compounds for the first time from this plant. Therefore, it can be reasonably concluded that S. glaucescens is a good source of bioactive compounds which justify its traditional uses in treatment of various ailments. Additionally, observed non-toxic effect of the tested compounds indicates safety and it is expected that its traditional use has no toxicity effect.

Abstract

Sepsis still becomes a major health problem worldwide, with a fairly high mortality rate ranging from 20 to 50%. Antibiotic therapy with rational use can reduce the mortality rate. In contrast, the irrational use of antibiotic therapy will increase the occurrence of resistance, which impacts the increase of morbidity, mortality, and health costs. The objective of this study was to evaluate the quality in the use of antibiotics using the Gyssens method in patients with sepsis. This study was an observational study with a cross-sectional method conducted at Fatmawati Central General Hospital Jakarta from January to December 2020. The research subjects were 110 patients with sepsis who met the inclusion criteria. In this study, 49.09% of patients used rational antibiotics and 50.91% of patients used irrational antibiotics that were found in category VI (0.91%), V (17.28%), IVa (3.63%), IVb (0.91%), IVc (0.91%), IIIa (3.63%), IIIb (20%), IIa (0.91%), and IIb (2.73%). The duration of antibiotic therapy was the only factor that affected the quality of antibiotic use (p = 0.012). There was no difference in mortality between patients with rational and irrational use of antibiotics (p = 0.333, OR = 1.654, 95% CI 0.714-3.829). However, after adjusting for the duration of therapy, irrational use of antibiotics significantly affected mortality (p = 0.017, OR = 3.5, 95% CI 1.255-9.761). In conclusion, the antibiotic use in half of the sepsis patients were irrational. Since irrational use was associated with mortality, efforts need to be taken to improve the quality of antibiotic use.

Abstract

The rapid spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has led to the development of therapeutic inhibitor drug of SARS-CoV-2, which can inhibit the viral enzyme RNA-dependent-RNA-polymerase (RdRp), thereby preventing the replication, transcription, and synthesis of RNA virus in the host cells. Previous in-vitro studies revealed that Andrographis paniculata has the potential to inhibit the virus. Therefore, this study aims to isolate the specific compounds of Andrographis paniculata, which play a role in inhibiting SARS-CoV-2 RdRp using molecular docking. A total of 19 compounds were identified in previous literature studies, while remdesivir and favipiravir were used as the positive control. All compounds and proteins were applied to minimize and optimize energy. Furthermore, the docking method was carried out using Autodock 4.2.6 software with a specific grid box containing the active site of RdRp (ID: 6M71), and the Lamarckian Genetic Algorithm was used to determine the conformation. The best docking was screened on ADMET prediction and the binding energy was evaluated. There are 18 compounds of Andrographis paniculata including the top three, namely andrographolactone (∆G = -8.86 kcal/mol), andrographolide (∆G = -7.74 kcal/mol), and andrographidine-A (∆G = -7.68 kcal/mol), which showed the strongest binding affinity to the SARS-CoV-2 RdRp protein compared to other compounds and the positive control remdesivir (∆G = -5.73 kcal/mol) and favipiravir (∆G = -5.20 kcal/mol). Furthermore, active amino acids play a role in this interaction by forming strong hydrogen bonds, such as TYR 619, LYS 621, ASP 760, and ASP 623. Andrographolactone has the highest potential as SARS-CoV-2 RdRp inhibitor, hence, it can be used as a novel therapeutic candidate.

Abstract

Adherence to taking medication is essential for patients with chronic diseases such as Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). There have been many studies about the association between medication adherence and HbA1c levels, but few have used Adherence Refills and Medications Scale (ARMS) questionnaire and Proportion of Days Covered (PDC) method to measure adherence in Indonesian population. The aim of this study were to assess the association of medication adherence to HbA1c levels and compare two methods of adherence measurements. This research was conducted at Pasar Minggu Public Health Center, Jakarta using a cross-sectional design. The adherence assessment was conducted using a validated Indonesian version of the ARMS questionnaire and compared to the pharmacy refill adherence method using the PDC calculation. One hundred twenty-seven T2DM patients (75.6% female) with mean age of 58.69 years were recruited. The proportion of adhere patients as measured by ARMS was only 39.4% (50/127). Meanwhile, the proportion of adhere patients as measured by PDC was 77.2% (98/127). Adherence by both measurement showed significant associations with HbA1c <7% (ARMS, OR 4.000 (95% CI 1.705 – 9.386), p = 0.002; PDC, OR 5.674 (95% CI 1.266 – 25.438), p = 0.024). After controlled by covariates, the result remained significant (ARMS, aOR 4.281 (95% CI 1.785 – 10.267, p = 0.001; PDC, aOR 5.83 (95% CI 1.287 – 26.405), p = 0.022). Adherence and HbA1c levels was significantly associated even after controlling covariates. ARMS and PDC generated different proportions of adhere patients and may indicate the need of combining the two methods in measuring adherence.

Abstract

A pharmacy, aside from being a pharmaceutical care provider is also a functioning business. Thus, in the scope of business, pharmacy performance can be analysed using liquidity, activity, and profitability ratios. This study aimed to determine the performance of Pharmacy X based on a financial perspective before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. This research is a descriptive cross-sectional study that employed data obtained from sales and purchase records. The data were analysed using financial ratio analysis methods, including liquidity, activity, and profitability ratios. This study was conducted at Pharmacy X based on the amount of prescription and non-prescription income from before the COVID-19 pandemic (in 2019) and during the pandemic (in 2020). The results showed that Pharmacy X was not good at managing its current assets and current liabilities during the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on the results for the ratios of total asset turnover and fixed asset turnover, asset utilisation was less efficient. Analysis of the probability ratios and net profit margin showed a decrease in Pharmacy X’s profit during the pandemic. The Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE), and Return on Investment (ROI) values indicated that the business was less able to generate profits and net income from its invested capital.
