Abstract

Currently, when the prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) is high and predicted to continue to increase, the elimination of tuberculosis (TB) in Indonesia has not been successful. The challenge is greater due to the comorbidity of both diseases and the complexity of the relationship between the two that is not yet well understood. Therefore, studies on DM-TB comorbidity in various populations are still needed. This study aims to determine the difference in the proportion of positive acid-fast bacillus (AFB) sputum between groups of controlled DM patients (HbA1c <6.5%) and uncontrolled (HbA1c ≥6.5%). The design of this study is cross-sectional, using secondary data (medical records) of 126 DM patients at the Persahabatan Hospital, Jakarta, who underwent examinations in January-June 2024. The results showed that the proportion of positive AFB sputum in the uncontrolled DM patient group was 41.3 percent and in the controlled group was 11.1 percent (based on the Chi-Square test, p-value <0.0001). In addition, the uncontrolled DM patient group had a median (youngest-oldest) age of 55 (37-74) years, while the controlled DM group was 50 (32-70) years (based on the Mann-Whitney test, p-value 0.036). This study shows that the uncontrolled DM patient group had a higher proportion of positive BTA sputum and was significantly older than the controlled DM patient group.

Abstract

Palembang City is a major urban center located on the island of Sumatra that has experienced substantial growth and development. The rapid increase in population and industrial activity has led to widespread contamination of water, food, and beverages with heavy metals. This is worsened by other variables, including smoking habits and work-related issues. At now, there is a limited number of papers that examine blood as a biomarker for lead contamination, particularly in Palembang City. These articles mostly focus on study participants that are very likely to be exposed, such as drivers. The objective of this study was to evaluate the blood lead levels in a cohort of drivers in Palembang City as an indicator of lead pollution. The participants in this study were drivers, with an average age of 58 years, who had accumulated more than 20 years of work experience (average 28 years). Utilizing the APHA technique, quantifying blood lead concentrations, and employing the impedance method and Spearman test to establish a correlation between the results, evaluating hemoglobin and hematocrit levels. The research findings indicate a correlation between blood lead levels and hemoglobin values (significance: 0.037) as well as hematocrit (significance: 0.039). The mean blood lead concentrations in drivers remain below the threshold of 14.9804 µg/L. The investigation conducted indicates a clear association between the levels of lead in the blood and the values of hemoglobin and hematocrit in the blood of drivers in Palembang City. A strong association was seen between blood lead levels and hemoglobin and hematocrit values

Abstract

Rambai fruit (Baccaurea motleyana) is a fruit that is still unable to compete with other local fruits, so it has lower economic value. Not only is it eaten directly, but rambai fruit can also be processed into vinegar. Vinegar is a substance made from various sugary or starchy ingredients through alcoholic fermentation followed by acetic fermentation. The vinegar sold must contain at least 4% (4 grams of acetic acid per 100 ml), must be fresh, and be made from fruit that is suitable for consumption. The vinegar that is widely available on the market and consumed by the public is made from chemicals that are harmful to the body. For this reason, it is necessary to make natural innovations in making vinegar, for example by using fruit. This research aims to determine the levels of acetic acid (CH3COOH) in rambai vinegar fermented for 1, 3, 12, and 36 months. The research method uses a descriptive research design. The sample used was rambai vinegar produced from a home industry in Sungai Pangkalan Village, Sungai Raya District, fermented for 1, 3, 12 and 36 months. Titrimetric examination method. Research on acetic acid levels in rambia fruit vinegar fermented for 1, 3, 12, and 36 months found 1.5802%, 1.5848%, 1.5917%, and 1.6991%. The conclusion was that the acetic acid content in Zambia fruit vinegar fermented for 1, 3, 12, and 36 days was still below the Indonesian national standard, namely 4-12%.

Abstract

Helminthiasis remains a public health problem in Indonesia, particularly among elementary school-aged children. This is due to geographical factors, socioeconomic conditions, and behaviors that neglect hygiene. Infection with Soil-Transmitted Helminths (STHs) can have detrimental effects on children's health and development. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of STH infections among elementary school children in Talawaan Atas Village, Wori District, North Minahasa Regency. This study employed a descriptive method. Samples were examined using both native and Kato-Katz methods. The study sample consisted of 30 elementary school students from GMIM Talawaan Atas who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data was collected through fecal examination and questionnaires. The results showed that of the 30 samples examined using the native method, 3 samples (10%) were found to be infected with STHs, specifically Ascaris lumbricoides. Using the Kato-Katz method, the same 1 sample (3.3%) was found to be infected with Ascaris lumbricoides. The conclusion of this study is that there is a 10% prevalence of STH infections among elementary school children in Talawaan Atas Village, Wori District, North Minahasa Regency.

Abstract

Typhoid fever is an acute disease caused by the bacteria Salmonella typhi. This bacteria is usually found in contaminated water or food. Apart from that, this bacteria can also be transmitted from infected people. The treatment carried out is using modern drugs such as the antibiotic chloramphenicol. However, the use of modern medicine has several disadvantages such as side effects. On the other hand, the use of natural ingredients as natural medicine has been widely used. One of them is that water gourd is empirically used as a fever reducer. Water gourd contains secondary metabolites, namely saponins, steroids and phenols which have been proven to have antibacterial activity and are able to inhibit the growth of Salmonella typhi bacteria. Another natural ingredient that has antibacterial activity is red ginger. Red ginger contains active compounds that have antibacterial effects such as flavonoids, phenols, treponoids and essential oils. Antibacterial activity was obtained by measuring the diameter of the inhibition zone after administering 4 variations of the concentration of the juice sample. The positive control used amoxicillin 30 µg/disk and the negative control used distilled water. The research design used was a quasi-experimental method. The samples were water gourd and red ginger juice with varying concentrations of 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% and the average inhibition zone values were obtained, namely 8.875 mm, 9.875 mm, 11.25 mm and 14.25 mm. Based on the results of research and computerized data processing using the Kruskall Walis test, a value of p = 0.000 (p<0.05) was obtained, which means that there is an effect of the concentration of pumpkin juice and red ginger on the inhibitory power of Salmonella thypi bacteria.
