Abstract

Noise is the presence of unwanted loud noises by workers that can be harmful and cause emotional stress and affect hormone production, resulting in increased blood pressure. Increased blood pressure can be reduced by wearing ear protection for workers who are exposed to noise. This study aims to analyze the use of ear protective equipment in an effort to reduce the blood pressure of workers who are exposed to noise. The method used in this research is a field experiment with the same subject (labor) as the unit of analysis, namely the process of comparing the blood pressure of workers before and after work and wearing ear protection. This study used Wilcoxon to analyze the difference in the blood pressure of workers before and after wearing ear protection, and the chi-square test was used with the aim of seing the effect of labor characteristics on increasing blood pressure. The results of this study showed changes in blood pressure, these changes can be seen by the difference between blood pressure before work and after work by wearing ear protection with a value of p= 0,000. and the results of the chi-square test obtained a value of p = 0.401 (p>0.05) which means that age has no effect on blood pressure, smoking habits (p= 0.693) which means that smoking has no effect on blood pressure and years of service (p=0,590) which means that years of service do not affect the blood pressure of workers. After the workers were treated by wearing ear protective equipment their blood pressure decreased, thus there was a difference in the blood pressure of the workers before and after treatment. But on the characteristics of the workforce there is no effect on the increase in blood pressure. Suggestions that can be given to the industry are socialization about the application of proper use of ear protective equipment and providing ear protection equipment (earmuffs) in the workplace.

Abstract

Escherichia coli is a normal flora in the human body that plays an important role in the digestive process. The presence of Escherichia coli ESBL (Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamase) bacteria in clean water samples indicates environmental pollution originating from feces. The aquatic environment is the most influential ecosystem in human life. These contaminated ecosystems provide optimal conditions for antibiotic-resistant bacteria from various sources to mix and transfer their resistance genes to clinically important bacteria for the development of human pathogens with novel resistance mechanisms. This study aims to determine the percentage of ESBL-producing E. coli bacteria in clean water samples. This study uses a descriptive observational design. The total sampling is 195 clean water samples. After going through screening in the form of membrane filter tests, KIA, and IMVIC, 25 isolates were found which were declared as E. coli. Analysis of the ESBL-producing E. coli gene using conventional PCR. Analysis of the Molecular Weight value in the sample using the GelAnalyzer 19.1 application. Based on these calculations, it was found that samples of E. coli isolates containing the ESBL gene were 24% of the 25 E. coli isolates. This percentage indicates that there is a large enough contamination in clean water. The results of this study indicate a potential risk to public health. The participation of health workers, government and the community in maintaining sanitary hygiene is needed to avoid greater contamination of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

Abstract

Decolorization is a key treatment process in batik industry wastewater management, aimed at reducing color intensity. This study evaluates a decolorizing combination of chitosan from Litopennaeus vannamei (CLV) and spent mushroom substrate from Pleurotus ostreatus (SMSPO), examining its effect on the 96-hour LC50 value and scale structure of common carp. Using a completely randomized design, common carp was exposed to decolorized wastewater at concentrations of 0%, 1.875%, 3.75%, 7.5%, 15%, and 30%. Results show that decolorized wastewater at 7.5% concentration remains lethal to fish, while concentrations of 3.75% and below are non-lethal. Microscopic changes in fish scales indicate particle adhesion from the wastewater. The 96-hour LC50 for untreated wastewater is 5.663%, compared to 4.788% after decolorization, reflecting a slight decrease in toxicity. These findings suggest that C-LV and SMS-PO combination could contribute to sustainable wastewater treatment practices by reducing toxicity in batik industry effluent.

Abstract

Preschool-aged children are particularly vulnerable to mental health disorders, which can significantly impact their social and developmental outcomes. This study aims to model the associations between mental health, social-emotional health, and child development in preschool children, emphasizing its relevance to child health policy and intervention strategies. Utilizing a quantitative, correlational, cross-sectional design with Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis, the research involved 156 preschool children aged 72 months. SEM was chosen for its ability to assess complex relationships among multiple variables while controlling for measurement errors, making it more suitable than traditional regression methods. The findings indicate that the average levels of mental health and social-emotional health, as well as growth and development, were within normal limits. However, certain indicators revealed delays that warrant monitoring. A significant correlation was found between child development and both mental and social-emotional health, highlighting a predictive relationship that suggests mental health significantly influences child development. This supports the acceptance of the first hypothesis (H1) while rejecting the null hypothesis (H0). The implications of these results are critical for health workers and educators, suggesting the need for early detection programs for mental health issues in preschool settings. By integrating tools like the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) into routine assessments, this study provides actionable recommendations for improving child mental health interventions within educational policies.

Abstract

Noise can cause nuisance and significantly threaten people's health and well-being. This study aims to find the relationship between noise exposure with blood pressure and stress of traffic helper volunteers in Makassar City.  This study employed an analytic observational design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 80 respondents were selected using purposive sampling technique. Traffic noise was measured using a sound level meter, blood pressure was measured using a tension meter and work stress was measured using a work stress questionnaire adapted from Permenaker No. 5/2018. Questions relating to sociodemographic information were also distributed for individual characteristic data. The results showed there was a significant influence between noise intensity and systolic blood pressure (p value = 0.001; r = 0.329), also with diastolic blood pressure (p value = 0.02; r = 0.230), noise also affects fatigue (p value = 0.016; r = 0.238), the value of r on the strength of the correlation shows a fairly strong correlation. Thus, exposure to traffic noise is associated with a high risk of blood pressure and fatigue.

Abstract

UVB radiation can penetrate the epidermis and can induce DNA damage in skin cells by increasing ROS concentrations. Apart from that, UVB radiation also increases melanocyte proliferation which can cause melasma. Skin damage due to UV exposure is caused by the generation of  ROS and various inflammatory factors. Telang flowers contain Glutathione, which is one of the main antioxidants in the body, which has a skin depigmentation function. One of the physiological effects of glutathione is to inhibit melanogenesis by suppressing tyrosinase activity. Experimental research with post test control group. Groups KN, P1 and P2 were each exposed to UVB at 302 nm with a MED of 160 mJ/cm2, while group K0 was a healthy group. P1 was given 5% butterfly pea flower gel and P2 was given 10% gel every day for 14 days, while KN received base gel. On the 21st day, the tissue was analyzed for IL-6 and VEGF level using ELISA. There was a significant difference in the mean levels of IL-6 between the four groups, with the One Way Anova test p = 0.000 (p <0.05). IL-6 levels decreased with increasing doses (P1=32.49±1.02, K4=27.82 ± 0.74) compared to the control (KN=61.89 ± 0.69, while K0=25.30 ± 0.55). Furthermore, the mean VEGF levels also had a significant difference between the four groups with the Kruskal Wallis test p = 0.000 (p <0.05) VEGF levels in the control group (KN = 37.44 ± 2.43) and followed by the healthy group (K0 = 23.47 ± 0.99), then in the P1 treatment group (K3 = 30.96 ± 0.57) were higher than the P2 treatment group (K4 = 27.00 ± 1.55). Administration of butterfly pea flower gel can reduce the level of the IL-6 gene and increase the level of the VEGF gene in the skin tissue of mice models of UVB light-induced hyperpigmentation.
