Abstract

Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP), Alanine Transaminase (ALT), Aspartate Transaminase (AST), and Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase (GGT) are liver enzymes commonly associated with liver dysfunction, and increased or decreased levels of these enzymes may be implicated in the pathophysiology of preeclampsia. This study aims to evaluate the levels of liver enzymes (ALP, ALT, AST, and GGT) in preeclamptic pregnant women in the third trimester of pregnancy. By analyzing these enzymes, the research seeks to identify potential early indicators of preeclampsia. Forty (40) consenting pregnant women were recruited from St. Philomina Catholic Hospital, Edo State, Nigeria. Blood samples were spun in a bucket centrifuge at 2500 RPM (rounds per minute) for 10 minutes, after which plasma was collected and stored frozen in plain sample bottles to be analyzed for liver enzymes (ALP, ALT, AST, and GGT) levels using the spectrophotometric method. Data obtained from the study were analyzed using Graph Pad Prism 9. Results were expressed as mean ± SEM, and a P-value of ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant. The present study showed a statistically significant increase in ALP, and a statistically significant decrease in liver enzymes such as ALT and AST were observed in preeclamptic women compared to normotensive pregnant women, indicating various underlying pathophysiological processes such as liver dysfunction.

Abstract

Hospital is a health service place that provides services based on safety competency and safety activities that are evaluated using performance assessment. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of patient safety competency on patient safety activities and nurse performance assessment. The independent variable in this study is patient safety competency, nurse performance assessment is the dependent variable while patient safety activity is the mediating variable. The study used an observational analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. Respondents in the study were some nurses at Mardi Waluyo Hospital, Blitar City who had a patient safety competency certificate totaling 159 respondents. The sampling technique used simple random sampling. The results of the regression analysis obtained a significant effect on patient safety competency on patient safety activities and nurse performance assessment with ap value = 0.01. The variable that has a dominant influence is safety competency with a standardized coefficient of 0.327 compared to safety activities in patients with a standardized coefficient of 0.312. The conclusion in this study is that there is an effect of patient safety competency on patient safety activities and nurse performance assessment. The results of the study are in line with previous research and theories which show that patient safety competency has a greater influence on nurse performance assessments directly compared to the presence of patient safety activities as a mediating variable, but it is possible that other factors play a role in the differences in the effects of influence between variables. Hospital policies, safety culture, and the level of awareness of the work team in implementing daily safety practices may play a role in the difference in influencing effects between variables. However, it is also possible that there are other factors such as the attitude and motivation to work of individuals who are considered not to meet the expectations of the leadership.

Abstract

The presence of Albumin, Microalbumin and Alpha-Feto Protein increase activity in third trimester. The aims of this study is to determine the Implication of Albumin, Microalbumin and Alpha-Feto Protein Variation in preeclamptic pregnant women in the third trimester of pregnancy. Forty (40) consenting pregnant women were recruited from St. Philomina Catholic Hospital, Edo State, Nigeria. Blood samples was spun in a bucket centrifuge at 2500 RPM (rounds per minute) for 10 minutes after which plasma was collected and stored frozen in plain sample bottles and was analyzed for liver enzymes (albumin, Microalbumin and Alpha-fetoprotein) levels by fluorescence immunoassay method. . Data obtained from this study were analysed using Graph Pad Prism 9. Results generated were expressed as mean ± SEM and a P-value of ≤ 0.05 were considered statistically significant. The present study showed that there was statistically significant increase in Albumin, Micro albumin were observed in preeclamptic women compared to normotensive pregnant women, indicating various underlying pathophysiological processes such as liver dysfunction. These findings suggest albumin and Micro albumin are implicated as potential biomarkers in identifying and monitoring preeclampsia. However, levels of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) did not show significant differences between preeclamptic and normotensive women.

Abstract

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) remain a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality, with chronic inflammation as a key pathophysiological mechanism. Antioxidants from fruits and vegetables have demonstrated potential to modulate inflammatory immune responses, thus contributing to NCD prevention. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of fruit and vegetable consumption promotion policies in preventing NCDs by modulating inflammatory immune responses in Nabire District in 2025. The research employed a mixed-methods design, incorporating both quantitative and qualitative data from 384 adult respondents. Data were gathered through food consumption surveys, inflammatory biomarker analysis (CRP, IL-6, TNF-α), and an evaluation of policy implementation. Descriptive and inferential analyses were conducted using SPSS 28.0 and R version 4.3.0. Results revealed that average fruit and vegetable consumption in Nabire residents remained below the WHO recommended intake (289g/day vs. 400g/day), although there was a noticeable improvement compared to previous years. A significant negative correlation was found between antioxidant intake and inflammatory biomarkers (r=-0.478, p<0.001). Policy implementation reached 74% coverage with a 62% compliance rate, indicating significant improvements in reach compared to prior assessments. The study concludes that fruit and vegetable consumption promotion policies show enhanced potential in modulating inflammatory immune responses for NCD prevention. However, continued efforts in strengthening policy implementation and adopting innovative monitoring strategies, particularly through digital health technologies, are essential for achieving sustained impact

Abstract

Leaves of Etlingera walang (Blume) RMSm have been empirically used in traditional medicine to relieve stomach disorders and are known to contain secondary metabolites with potential antimicrobial properties. Salmonella typhi infection can cause typhoid fever with symptoms such as diarrhea and abdominal pain, while Candida tropicalis is a fungus that can infect the gastrointestinal tract and lead to digestive disturbances. This study aimed to evaluate the antibacterial and antifungal activities of the ethanolic extract of E. walang leaves against S. typhi and C. tropicalis. The antimicrobial assay was carried out using the disk diffusion method at extract concentrations of 25%, 50%, and 100%, with chloramphenicol and ketoconazole as positive controls, and DMSO as the negative control. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, and tannins. However, the results showed that the extract did not produce inhibition zones against either test microorganism. Extract evaluation indicated a moisture content of 12.23%, total ash 13.39% (above the standard), acid-insoluble ash 1.25%, total plate count 1.8 × 10 ⁴ , and mold and yeast count 1.0 × 10 ³. The findings suggest that although the ethanolic extract of E. walang leaves contains secondary metabolites and is traditionally used for stomach ailments, it does not exhibit antimicrobial activity against S. typhi or C. tropicalis.
