Abstract

Depression literacy refers to an individual's ability to recognize, understand, and manage depression, particularly among patients with chronic illnesses such as type 2 diabetes mellitus. Low depression literacy can affect how patients cope with the psychological conditions accompanying their illness. This study aims to describe the level of depression literacy among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients at Puskesmas Kabila. This research employs a quantitative method with a descriptive survey design. The study population consists of 292 respondents, with a sample of 74 respondents selected using accidental sampling. The research instrument used is the D-Lit questionnaire to measure the level of depression literacy. Data were analyzed descriptively to determine the distribution of depression literacy levels among respondents. The results indicate that most respondents have a moderate level of depression literacy. These findings suggest that although respondents have an understanding of depression, further educational efforts are needed to improve their depression literacy to a higher level. Therefore, the results of this study can serve as a basis for Puskesmas Kabila in developing more effective educational programs to enhance depression literacy among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients, enabling them to better understand their psychological condition and improve their ability to manage their overall health.

Abstract

Sebagian besar infeksi kulit di Indonesia disebabkan oleh bakteri Staphylococcus aureus yang bersifat patogen oportunistik dan bertanggung jawab atas permasalahan resistensi antibiotik Metisilin dan Vankomisin terhadap S.aureus. Daun bakau R. mucronata mengandung aktivitas antibakteri pada senyawa metabolit sekunder yakni fenol, flavonoid, saponin, tanin, dan terpenoid. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh ekstrak etanol 96% daun bakau R. mucronata terhadap pertumbuhan bakteri Staphylococcus aureus. Penelitian dilakukan secara eksperimental laboratoris dengan sampel biakan murni Staphylococcus aureus murni, diambil dengan teknik random sampling, dicampur dengan aquades dan kekeruhannya setara dengan standarisasi 0,5 Mc Farland, ditanam di agar Mueller Hinton. Daun Bakau R. mucronata diekstraksi dengan metode maserasi dan dibuat 4 seri konsentrasi (25%, 50%, 75%, dan 100%). Uji antibakteri menggunakan metode difusi cakram dengan kontrol positif Siprofloksasin 5 mcg dan kontrol negatif akuades steril. Semua cawan petri dimasukkan kedalam inkubator selama 24 jam pada suhu 37°C, lalu diukur diameternya. Data dianalisis secara statistik dengan uji Nonparametrik Kruskal Wallis dan dilanjutkan uji posthoc Mann Whitney-U. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan peningkatan diameter zona hambat setiap konsentrasi ekstrak dengan aktivitas penghambatan tertinggi pada konsentrasi 100% sebesar 11,7 mm. Simpulan dalam penelitisn ini bahwa ekstrak etanol 96% daun bakau R. mucronata dapat menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri S.aureus secara in vitro

Abstract

The number of patients diagnosed with lung disease at Prof. Dr. H. Aloei Saboe Hospital increased in 2023 by 1,947 cases. Initial observation results on 10 patients treated with lung disease were obtained that all of them were active smokers. The purpose of this study is to find out smoking addiction in male patients with lung disease. This research method uses a quantitative descriptive research design to determine the picture of smoking addiction in male patients with lung disease at Prof. Dr. H. Aloei Saboe Hospital, Gorontalo City. The population in this study is 502 respondents with a sample size of 100 respondents using the accidental sampling technique. The results of this study showed that male patients with lung disease who had very low smoking dependence were 19 respondents (19.0%), low smoking dependence was 23 respondents (23.0%), moderate smoking dependence was 42 respondents (42.0%), high smoking dependence was 14 respondents (14.0%) and very high smoking dependence was 2 respondents (2.0%). Smokers have a higher risk of experiencing symptoms of respiratory disorders and lung dysfunction because cigarettes contain 4000 harmful chemicals. It is hoped that this study can provide an overview of smoking addiction that can reduce the incidence of lung disease.
