Abstract

Background & Objectives: Based on data from the Ciamis District Health Service Profile (2022), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) ranks 6th out of the 10 most common diseases at community health centers, with 16,195 cases. Systemic inflammation in RA can affect blood cell productivity. This has the potential to cause blood abnormalities, which can lead to diseases such as anemia, leukemia, or blood clotting problems. Routine blood tests are performed as a screening test to determine blood values in RA patients. The purpose of this study was to determine the results of routine blood tests in RA patients in Ciamis Regency. Method: This study used a descriptive method with total sampling technique. The examination was conducted on RA patients in Ciamis Regency in May 2024 with a sample size of 20 respondents. The study used secondary data that was processed into diagrams and then explained narratively. The study used a hematology analyzer located in the hematology laboratory of Ciamis Regional General Hospital. Results: This study found that the percentage of normal blood values for erythrocyte parameters was 70%, hemoglobin was 70%, hematocrit was 70%, average erythrocyte index was normal at 90%, leukocytes were 95%, average leukocyte types were normal at 80%, and thrombocytes were 90%. Low values were found in the erythrocyte (30%), hemoglobin (30%), hematocrit (30%), MCV (25%), MCH (10%), RDW SD (10%), and lymphocyte (11%) parameters. Meanwhile, high values were found in the parameters of white blood cells (10%), lymphocytes (8%), monocytes (15%), neutrophils (10%), eosinophils (40%), basophils (5%), and platelets (10%).     Conclusion: It can be concluded that the values for erythrocytes, hemoglobin, hematocrit, erythrocyte indices, leukocytes, leukocyte types, and platelets were generally within the normal range.

Abstract

Background & Objectives: The prevalence of chronic kidney failure in Ciamis Regency based on medical records data from Ciamis Regional General Hospital in 2023 was 318 patients. In kidney failure, the level of erythropoietin produced will decrease and have an impact on the decline in red blood cell production, a condition that also causes a decrease in hemoglobin levels. Clinically, hemoglobin levels are used to determine anemia. If hemoglobin levels are low, the oxygen supply is insufficient and can lead to anemia. The purpose of this study was to determine hemoglobin levels in patients with chronic kidney failure undergoing hemodialysis therapy. Method: This study is a descriptive study using purposive sampling techniques and was conducted at the Hematology Laboratory of STIKes Muhammadiyah Ciamis in May 2024. The respondents in this study were 39 people with chronic kidney failure at Ciamis Regional General Hospital. Results: The results obtained from 39 respondents with chronic kidney failure undergoing hemodialysis therapy at Ciamis Regional General Hospital were below normal levels. Conclusion: From the results of this study, it can be concluded that there were 14 people with mild anemia with Hb levels >10 g/dl, and 25 people with moderate anemia with Hb levels of 7-10 g/dl.

Abstract

Background & Objectives: The prevalence of chronic kidney failure in Ciamis Regency based on medical records data from Ciamis Regional General Hospital in 2023 was 318 patients. Chronic kidney failure often causes complications, one of which is anemia. Reticulocyte examination in patients with chronic kidney failure can help diagnose complications such as anemia and determine the response to bone marrow. The purpose of this study was to determine the number of reticulocytes in patients with chronic kidney failure. Method: This research method is descriptive with purposive sampling technique. The respondents in this study were 39 people with chronic kidney failure at Ciamis Regional General Hospital.  This study was conducted at the Hematology Laboratory of STIKes Muhammadiyah Ciamis in May 2024. The examination technique was carried out using brilliant crystal blue solution staining and examined under a microscope. The examination results were compiled into tables and explained narratively. Results: The results of this examination showed that 34 people (87%) had normal reticulocyte counts and 5 people (13%) had above-normal reticulocyte counts. Conclusion: It can be concluded that the average reticulocyte count in patients with chronic kidney failure is normal.

Abstract

Background & Objectives: Indonesia ranked 5th in the world (22.331%) in terms of anemia incidence in 2019, after Pakistan (22.409%), Nigeria (25.475%), China (54.041%), and India (187.325%). The prevalence of anemia in Indonesia based on data from the 2018 Basic Health Research was 48.9%. Globally, the prevalence of anemia is higher in adolescent girls than in adolescent boys. Anemia is a disease caused by a lack of red blood cells. This study aims to determine anemia screening through hemoglobin testing in female students at STIKes Muhammadiyah Ciamis. Method: The method used in this study was descriptive, with the respondents being female students at STIKes Muhammadiyah Ciamis. Hemoglobin levels were measured using a spectrophotometer with the synehemoglobin method. This study was conducted at the Hematology Laboratory of STIKes Muhammadiyah Ciamis in May 2024. Results: Based on the examination results of 42 samples, 1 person (2%) was found to have moderate anemia, 4 people (10%) had mild anemia, and 37 people (88%) had normal results. Conclusion: The average hemoglobin level of female students at STIKes Muhammadiyah Ciamis is normal.

Abstract

Background & Objectives: Candida albicans is an opportunistic commensal fungus that becomes pathogenic when there is an immune disorder or physiological change. The resulting infection, called candidiasis, is acute or subacute and can affect various organs. Poor personal hygiene is a predisposing factor, especially in genital infections. This study aims to determine the presence and prevalence of Candida albicans in the urine of premenstrual girls aged 10-14 years at SMPN 1 Ciamis. Method: This study used a descriptive cross-sectional design. Sampling was performed using purposive sampling, with a total of 23 samples collected. The samples were examined at the Parasitology Laboratory of STIKes Muhammadiyah Ciamis. Results: The results of the study of 23 samples found 3 samples (13%) positive for Candida albicans, 2 samples (9%) positive for Candida tropicalis, and 18 samples (78%) showed no fungal growth. Conclusion Based on the results of this study, poor personal hygiene can influence Candida albicans fungal infection, especially in premenstrual adolescent girls aged 10-14 years.

Abstract

Background & Objective: The rapid growth of the beverage industry in Indonesia has led to an increasing circulation of various soft drink products in society, including packaged fruit juice beverages produced by Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). These products often contain additional ingredients, particularly preservatives such as sodium benzoate. However, some manufacturers do not provide clear information regarding the concentration of these additives on product labels. The uncontrolled and unmonitored use of food additives may pose potential health risks, especially if the preservatives exhibit carcinogenic properties. This study aims to analyze the levels of sodium benzoate in packaged fruit juice drinks available on the market. The absence of sodium benzoate in the tested samples would indicate that the products are free from synthetic preservatives and therefore safe for consumption. Method: This study employed a descriptive-analytical design to determine the concentration of sodium benzoate in non-BPOM registered packaged fruit juice beverages. Quantitative analysis of sodium benzoate was performed using UV-Vis spectrophotometry. The population consisted of non-BPOM packaged fruit juice beverages available in local markets and retail outlets. Samples were collected using purposive sampling, based on product availability and labeling that did not specify preservative content. Result: The qualitative analysis using 5% FeCl3 reagent indicated positive results for the presence of sodium benzoate in both sample A and sample B. Furthermore, quantitative analysis revealed that the sodium benzoate concentrations in sample A and sample B were each 40 mg/kg (0.004%).   Conclusion: The findings of this study confirmed the presence of sodium benzoate in both non-BPOM packaged fruit juice samples. These levels were relatively low and remained within acceptable safety limits established by international food safety standards, indicating that the analyzed products are safe for consumption with respect to sodium benzoate content.
