l Makki Health Informatics Journal is an open-access scientific peer-review journal publishing. The Al Makki Health Informatics Journal focuses on exchanging information relating to intelligent computing and health informatics applied in industry, hospitals, government, and universities. All articles should include a validation of the idea presented, e.g. through case studies, experiments, or systematic comparisons with other approaches already in practice. Two types of papers are accepted: (1) A short paper that discusses a single contribution to a specific new trend or a new idea, and; (2) A long paper that provides a survey of a specific research trend using a systematic literature review (SLR) method, as well as a traditional review method.

Abstract

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are often considered trivial and can trap humans due to ignorance within normal limits: uric acid, blood sugar, blood pressure, and body mass index, which can lead to disease. Abnormal conditions can trigger NCDs gradually but surely. These conditions, if not anticipated through symptom observation and control of normal levels, can cause death. The causes are diverse, including genetic factors and environmental influences such as diet, sleep, activity, and social environment. Data from Kumelembuai Village, South Minahasa Regency, North Sulawesi, shows that this research uses qualitative methods, following Basrowi & Suwandi (2014). Blood samples were taken in February-March 2025 to determine normal standards for uric acid, blood sugar, and BMI in adult men and women, mainly housewives, with a total of 72 respondents. The results show that women’s average uric acid level is 9.12 mg/dL, men’s 9.4 mg/dL; blood sugar averages are 98.02 mg/dL for women and 115.94 mg/dL for men; blood pressure averages are 135.34/79.21 mmHg for women and 151.56/80.25 mmHg for men; BMI averages are 26.46 for women and 24.75 for men. Overall, some values exceed normal thresholds, indicating a risk of NCDs. The conclusion is that these levels surpass standard normal limits and could lead to health issues. Early steps are necessary to prevent NCDs by paying attention to factors such as genetics, environmental influences, and lifestyle patterns, including eating, sleeping, activity, and social gatherings that may trigger the consumption of foods increasing disease risk.

Abstract

Background: Oral candidiasis is a fungal infection of the tongue and oral mucosa caused by Candida species, characterized by overgrowth and superficial tissue invasion. One of the main predisposing factors is an immunocompromised state such as type II diabetes mellitus. Fungal infections in diabetic patients may be associated with additional oral symptoms, including Burning Mouth Syndrome (BMS) and xerostomia. Case Presentation: A 53-year-old male presented with a three-day history of burning sensation localized to the left side of the tongue. The complaint had not been previously treated. The patient reported a reduced sense of taste, limited to salty and spicy sensations, and persistent dry mouth. Medical history revealed a diagnosis of type II diabetes mellitus for six years, with discontinuation of antidiabetic medication over the past three months. Management and Outcome: The treatment plan included chlorinated dioxide mouthwash (used three times daily), xylitol (taken three times daily), nystatin oral suspension (applied four times daily), a single dose of fluconazole 150 mg, and Becomzet (taken once daily). The patient was instructed to maintain strict adherence to the medication regimen, practice good oral hygiene, and attend regular follow-ups. Improvement in symptoms was observed after consistent use of the prescribed therapy. Conclusion: Effective management of oral candidiasis in patients with poorly controlled type II diabetes mellitus, particularly when accompanied by Burning Mouth Syndrome and xerostomia, requires a comprehensive treatment approach. Success is largely dependent on accurate drug selection and patient compliance with therapy and oral hygiene practices. This case highlights the importance of addressing systemic factors in conjunction with local treatment to ensure resolution of symptoms and prevent recurrence.

Abstract

Introduction:Migraine without aura is a common neurological disorder that imposes a substantial global burden. While pharmacological therapy remains the cornerstone of treatment, limitations such as side effects, contraindications, and medication overuse highlight the need for complementary approaches. Acupuncture has been proposed as a potential alternative due to its neuromodulatory and analgesic effects. Methods: This systematic review followed PRISMA guidelines and the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions. Searches were conducted in PubMed, ProQuest, SAGE Journals, and EuropePMC, including only randomized controlled trials comparing acupuncture with standard pharmacological treatments in migraine without aura. Outcomes of interest included headache frequency, intensity, acute medication use, quality of life, and safety. Risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane RoB 2.0 tool. Results: Eight randomized controlled trials involving patients with migraine without aura were included. Acupuncture consistently reduced migraine frequency, with greater decreases in headache days and attack frequency compared with drugs such as flunarizine and valproic acid. Significant reductions in pain intensity were observed in several studies, with acupuncture showing either comparable or superior effects relative to pharmacological therapy. Acupuncture also led to earlier and more sustained reductions in acute medication use, potentially lowering the risk of medication overuse headache. Quality of life improvements were reported in domains of physical function, emotional well-being, and migraine-specific indices. Adverse events were generally mild and transient (e.g., local bleeding, discomfort), and occurred less frequently than with standard medications, which were associated with drowsiness, weight gain, or gastrointestinal symptoms. Discussion and Conclusion: Acupuncture demonstrates favorable efficacy and safety compared with standard pharmacological treatments in migraine without aura, offering reductions in frequency, intensity, and medication use, alongside improvements in quality of life. Given heterogeneity in protocols and some methodological limitations, further large-scale multicenter trials with standardized designs are warranted to confirm these findings and guide clinical practice.
