Abstract

Sweetened beverages are drinks that contain high amounts of calories and sugar but provide little to no significant nutritional value. Limited public awareness, including among elementary school students, regarding the health risks associated with consuming sweet and artificially colored drinks may contribute to increased consumption habits. This behavior can raise the risk of various health problems, including obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and kidney failure. This study aimed to determine the effect of health education on students’ knowledge regarding the dangers of consuming sweetened and colored beverages. This research employed a pre-experimental design using a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The study involved 90 respondents selected through the Total Sampling technique. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed through univariate and bivariate methods using the Wilcoxon test. The results showed that before receiving health education, most respondents had a moderate to low level of knowledge. After the intervention, students’ knowledge improved significantly, with the majority achieving a good level of knowledge. Statistical analysis revealed a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05), indicating a significant effect of health education on students’ knowledge. Therefore, health education was found to be effective in increasing students’ understanding of the dangers of consuming sweetened and colored beverages.

Abstract

Rabies is a fatal zoonotic disease and remains a public health problem in Indonesia, particularly in the Province of East Nusa Tenggara (NTT). This study aims to historically examine the Extraordinary Events (KLB) of rabies in NTT during the 2022–2024 period, including epidemiological patterns, case trends, distribution, and risk factors influencing the spread of the disease. The method used is a literature study with data sources from scientific journals, official reports, and related publications obtained through Google Scholar and PubMed databases. The study results indicate that rabies in NTT has been developing since 1997 and has become endemic in several regions, with a significant increase in cases in 2023 that met the KLB criteria. The trend of rabies-transmitting animal bites (GHPR) shows an increase from 12,721 cases in 2022 to 30,317 cases in 2024. The highest case distribution is found in the child age group, particularly 5–9 years old. As well as areas with a high dog population density. Major risk factors include low dog vaccination coverage, high animal mobility, low public knowledge, and limited access to health services. Control efforts through a One Health approach have been carried out, but they have not been optimal in breaking the chain of transmission.

Abstract

Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is a widely consumed food additive that has been reported to increase the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), potentially inducing damage to various organs, including the testes. Oxidative stress in the testes may impair histological structure and disrupt the process of spermatogenesis. Antioxidants have been shown to attenuate the harmful effects of free radicals, and kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa) is recognized as a rich source of natural antioxidants. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of kiwifruit extract on testicular weight and histopathological characteristics in male Sprague Dawley rats exposed to MSG for 30 days. This experimental study used 25 male Sprague Dawley rats randomly assigned into five groups (n = 5 per group): negative control (K−), positive control receiving MSG at 4.8 g/kg body weight/day (K+), MSG plus vitamin C at 0.2 g/kg body weight/day (P1), MSG plus kiwifruit extract at 0.2 g/kg body weight/day (P2), and MSG plus kiwifruit extract at 0.4 g/kg body weight/day (P3). All treatments were administered for 30 consecutive days. Histopathological evaluation of the testes was performed on hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained sections to assess the seminiferous tubule germinal epithelium, while testicular weight was measured at the end of the experiment. Data were presented descriptively as mean ± standard deviation. Histopathological examination demonstrated improved seminiferous tubule germinal epithelium in the P2 and P3 groups compared with the MSG-treated group (K+). The lowest mean testicular weight was observed in the P3 group (0.66 ± 0.31 g), compared with the K+ group (1.07 ± 0.28 g) and the negative control group (0.95 ± 0.30 g). Administration of kiwifruit extract tended to improve the histopathological appearance of the testes in male rats exposed to MSG, particularly in the P3 group, suggesting a potential protective effect against oxidative stress-induced testicular damage. However, the findings regarding changes in testicular weight remain descriptive and require confirmation through inferential statistical analysis.

Abstract

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common chronic liver disease globally, but its association with ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption under the new diagnostic framework has not been systematically synthesized. We systematically searched PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane CENTRAL, Scopus, and Web of Science for observational studies examining habitual UPF intake (NOVA classification) and MASLD/NAFLD in general adult populations using validated outcome ascertainment. Quality was appraised via the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) and certainty via GRADE. Eight studies comprising >350,000 adults across six countries met the eligibility criteria, with seven rated as good methodological quality. All eight studies reported a positive association between higher UPF consumption and MASLD risk, with prospective adjusted hazard ratios ranging from 1.18 to 1.50 and cross-sectional odds ratios from 1.33 to 2.50. Additionally, decreasing UPF intake significantly lowered intrahepatic fat (7.7% to 2.6%), and an exposure-response gradient was observed across several cohorts. Approximately two-thirds of the association was mediated by adiposity (attenuated after BMI adjustment), while evidence for hepatic fibrosis remained inconsistent. GRADE certainty was rated as Low for the primary association and exposure-response gradient, and Very Low for intrahepatic fat and fibrosis outcomes. In conclusion, higher habitual UPF intake is consistently associated with an increased burden of MASLD in adults, largely mediated by adiposity. Although observational nature limits direct causality, these findings support restricting UPF consumption while awaiting further prospective studies using explicit MASLD criteria.

Abstract

Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy remain a major cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. Superimposed preeclampsia is particularly challenging because it occurs in women with pre-existing chronic hypertension and is associated with increased risk of severe maternal and fetal complications. Vanishing twin syndrome may further increase obstetric risk, especially when associated with abnormal placentation and maternal vascular dysfunction. This case report describes a 35-year-old woman, gravida 5 para 3 abortus 1, at 21 weeks of gestation, who was admitted with severe nausea and vomiting. The pregnancy was complicated by hyperemesis gravidarum without dehydration, superimposed preeclampsia, previous severe preeclampsia, previous cesarean section, vanishing twin syndrome, and mild hypokalemia. Laboratory evaluation showed proteinuria +1, anemia, and hypokalemia with serum potassium of 3.1 mmol/L. The patient was managed with intravenous fluid therapy, antiemetics, gastric protection, potassium correction, supplementation, antibiotics, and close maternal-fetal monitoring. This case highlights the importance of early identification, multidisciplinary surveillance, and individualized management in high-risk pregnancies with overlapping maternal and placental risk factors.
