<![CDATA[Tuberculosis (TB) is a communicable disease that remains a major public health problem in Indonesia due to its high incidence, long treatment duration, and its impact on patients' physical, psychological, social, and environmental conditions, which can reduce quality of life. Family support is an important factor that plays a role in improving the quality of life of tuberculosis patients. This study aimed to determine the relationship between family support and the quality of life of tuberculosis patients in the working area of Kembaran 1 Public Health Center, Banyumas. This study employed a quantitative analytical method with a cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 67 tuberculosis patients selected using proportionate stratified random sampling and simple random sampling techniques. The research instruments were the Perceived Social Support from Family (PSS-Fa) questionnaire to measure family support and the WHOQOL-BREF Indonesian version to assess patients' quality of life. Data were analyzed using appropriate statistical tests. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between family support and the quality of life of tuberculosis patients (p < 0.05). Better family support was associated with better quality of life among tuberculosis patients. Family support plays an important role in improving the quality of life of tuberculosis patients.]]>

<![CDATA[Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) is a critical nutritional issue among Indonesian adolescent girls. In Jambi Province, its prevalence shows a fluctuating upward trend, requiring a thorough analysis of risk determinants. This study aimed to determine CED prevalence and analyze its association with macronutrient intake frequency, infectious diseases, hygiene behavior, physical activity, and family size. This quantitative study used a cross-sectional design with 2023 Indonesian Health Survey (SKI) secondary data. The sample consisted of 1,082 adolescent girls (10–19 years) in Jambi Province. Data were analyzed using Chi-square and Cox Regression to identify dominant factors and Prevalence Ratios (PR). CED prevalence was remarkably high at 56.1%, predominantly in the 15–19 age group (51.6%). Nutritional patterns showed infrequent consumption of carbohydrates (51.7%), fats (66.0%), and proteins (58.3%). While most respondents reported good hygiene and no infection history, bivariate analysis showed no significant association with CED. However, multivariate analysis identified light physical activity as the dominant factor significantly associated with CED risk (p-value: 0.045; PR: 1.45; 95% CI: 1.00–2.08). Physical activity is the primary determinant of CED among adolescent girls in Jambi. These findings highlight the urgency for comprehensive nutritional interventions focusing on energy balance and dietary quality.]]>

<![CDATA[Ischaemic optic neuropathy (ION) is a vision-threatening condition caused by impaired arterial blood supply to the optic nerve. Posterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (PION) is a rare subtype that often presents without funduscopic abnormalities in the acute phase, making diagnosis challenging. We report a case of a 50-year-old man who presented with sudden, painless monocular visual loss in the left eye, accompanied by hemisensory deficits. Ophthalmic examination revealed no optic disc abnormalities, while automated perimetry demonstrated an inferior arcuate visual field defect. Brain magnetic resonance imaging showed a right corona radiata infarction, and digital subtraction angiography confirmed stenosis of the distal branches of the left ophthalmic artery. These findings supported the diagnosis of PION secondary to ophthalmic artery stenosis, an uncommon etiology of ION. The patient had uncontrolled hypertension as a major vascular risk factor and was treated with antiplatelet therapy, resulting in clinical improvement of visual acuity. This case highlights the importance of comprehensive vascular evaluation in patients with suspected PION and emphasizes ophthalmic artery stenosis as a rare but significant cause of ischaemic optic neuropathy. Early recognition of the underlying vascular pathology may facilitate appropriate management and help prevent further ischemic complications.]]>

<![CDATA[Near-fatal asthma (NFA) is a life-threatening manifestation of acute severe asthma characterized by hypercapnia, respiratory acidosis, altered consciousness, and the need for invasive mechanical ventilation. Early recognition and timely airway stabilization are essential to prevent respiratory arrest and mortality, particularly in resource-limited settings. A 41-year-old woman with a history of asthma was brought to the emergency department with decreased consciousness and severe respiratory distress. On arrival, her Glasgow Coma Scale score was 5, respiratory rate was 35 breaths per minute, and oxygen saturation was 46% on room air. Arterial blood gas analysis demonstrated life-threatening hypercapnic respiratory failure (pH 6.954; PaCO₂ 95.4 mmHg; P/F ratio 87). Due to worsening respiratory failure and decreased level of consciousness, the patient underwent immediate endotracheal intubation and invasive mechanical ventilation and was admitted to the intensive care unit. She received systemic corticosteroids, repeated bronchodilator therapy, aminophylline infusion, and broad-spectrum antibiotics. Lung-protective ventilatory strategies with prolonged expiratory time were applied. The patient improved rapidly and was successfully extubated on the second day of mechanical ventilation, with subsequent discharge in stable condition. Appropriate ventilatory strategies combined with guideline-based pharmacological therapy are essential to improve outcomes in patients with near-fatal asthma presenting with severe hypercapnic respiratory failure, even in resource-limited settings.]]>

<![CDATA[Vitamin C and Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate is a combination of active substances that play a role in improving the immune system and maintaining body health. This research aims to create a powder formulation of a combination of vitamin C and zinc sulfate that is safe for consumption. Vitamin C is a very sensitive substance and can be degraded into dehydroascorbic acid due to photooxidation and hydrolysis reactions. Vitamin C is easily degraded in aqueous media, at high pH, high temperatures, in the presence of oxygen and metal ions. Formulation in solid form such as powder is often chosen to increase the chemical stability and shelf life of vitamin C. Formulation of vitamin C and zinc in powder form also provides convenience for consumers who have difficulty swallowing in pill, tablet, or capsule form. The evaluation results showed that the preparation had good characteristics in most parameters, including white color, smooth texture, odorless, slightly sweet and sour taste, particle size of 0.7795 mm, flow time of 10 seconds, water content of 2.73%, angle of repose of 31.52°, dissolution time of 1 minute 29 seconds, bulk density of 0.64, tap density of 0.72, Hausner ratio of 1.12, and compressibility index of 11.11%. However, the preparation did not meet the requirements for particle size distribution due to the excessive number of fines and a pH value of 3.57 which was below the specified range (4–7). Therefore, the resulting formulation still requires further optimization to improve compliance with the preparation quality standards.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to examine the effect of different binders on the physical quality of paracetamol tablets using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method. Paracetamol tablets are one of the preparations widely used as analgesics and antipyretics, so the choice of binder plays an important role in determining tablet quality, such as hardness, friability, disintegration time, dissolution, and physical and chemical stability. The method used is a literature study of various studies related to variations in binders in paracetamol tablet formulations and evaluation of their physical quality. The results of the study indicate that the type and concentration of binders have a significant effect on tablet characteristics. Binders such as PVP, gelatin, kawista pectin, konjac glucomannan, durian seed starch, cassava starch, pregelatinized corn starch phosphate, and various other natural starches show different effects on tablet hardness, friability, disintegration time, and dissolution. Natural binders such as pectin and modified starch show the most optimal results because they are able to produce tablets with good physical quality while maintaining optimal drug release. While synthetic binders such as PVP and gelatin provide strong binding strength and improve tablet stability, their use in high concentrations can prolong disintegration time and decrease dissolution. Overall, selecting the right binder is crucial for producing paracetamol tablets that meet pharmacopoeial requirements and provide optimal therapeutic efficacy.]]>

<![CDATA[Post-tonsillectomy awake extubation under general anesthesia has the potential to trigger hemodynamic fluctuations due to sympathetic stimulation, but prospective data in the Indonesian context is still limited. This study aims to describe the hemodynamic status in the post awake extubation period in tonsillectomy patients. Using a descriptive quantitative design, the population included 29 patients aged 12–35 years at Wijayakusuma Hospital III Purwokerto (December 2025–January 2026) with total sampling. Primary data were measured via bedside monitors and observation sheets, and univariate analysis was performed using SPSS. The results showed that the majority of respondents were 17–25 years old (51.7%) and female (65.5%). In the post-awake extubation period, hemodynamic findings demonstrated pre-hypertensive systolic and diastolic blood pressure (44.8% and 55.2%, ), while mean arterial pressure (79.3%), pulse rate (62.1%), respiratory rate (75.9%), and oxygen saturation (100%) remained within normal limits.]]>

<![CDATA[Drug-receptor interactions are the primary basis for determining the effectiveness of a therapy. Understanding the mechanisms of these interactions continues to evolve with advances in computational technology, one of which is through the molecular docking approach. This method enables in silico analysis of ligand-receptor interactions, including predictions of binding affinity, complex stability, and the types of molecular interactions that occur. Furthermore, the lock and key theory is a fundamental concept in explaining the structural compatibility between drugs and receptors, which influences bond strength and specificity. The method used in this review is a literature review from various scientific databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect, with journals published in 2020 or later as inclusion criteria. The results show that oseltamivir has high affinity for neuraminidase through specific interactions such as hydrogen bonding and electrostatic binding. However, mutations in the receptor can lead to drug resistance. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms of molecular interactions is crucial for the development of more effective antiviral drugs.]]>
