Abstract

The habit of people who consume coffee will have an impact on increasing blood pressure, where if you drink 4 or more cups of coffee in one day, the systolic pressure will increase by approximately 10 mmHg and around 8 mmHg in diastolic blood pressure. The purpose of this study was to see the relationship between the habit of consuming milk coffee and black coffee with blood pressure in students of the Faculty of Medicine at Krida Wacana Christian University. This research used a cross-sectional approach with a population of 2020 Ukrida Faculty of Medicine students. The sample in this study was 102 people with a simple random sampling technique. It was found that the average 2020 Ukrida Faculty of Medicine student consumed coffee 1-2 times a day at a rate of 1-2 cups per day, but there were also some who consumed 3-4 cups of coffee a day. Data analysis used the Person Chi-Square and obtained the p-value for milk coffee: 0.126 and the p-value for black coffee: 0.656. So this shows that both milk coffee and black coffee have no significant relationship with an increase in blood pressure.

Abstract

Telemedicine as an online consultation tool is also developing in Indonesia. in addition, Indonesia currently does not have a clear legal umbrella for telemedicine issues. This literature review aims to provide an overview of telemedicine services in Indonesia from an ethical perspective. Of the 7 studies reviewed by the authors, there are various expert opinions that differ from an ethical perspective regarding telemedicine, so that it can be concluded that telemedicine can be used to provide health services, but priority must be given to the application of ethical and legal principles. Inappropriate use of telemedicine will cause problems for the patient and the doctor himself. Problems that can occur such as the problem of demands given by patients to doctors in this case malpractice. Respect for ethical and legal principles must always be obeyed by every doctor because it saves doctors from lawsuits and demands while at the same time reflecting the personality of the doctor as a noble and noble profession of all time. It is necessary to make regulations related to telemedicine services in the medical field and the need for further research related to the extent of the use of telemedicine in Indonesia.

Abstract

A welder is anyone, amateur or professional, who uses welding equipment. A metalsmith who specialize input the ingredients together and usually metal. In carrying out their work, workers will be constantly exposed to high-intensity welding light. Welding workers who do not use proper eye protection can experience direct effects from welding. This literature review is a literature review that uses the method of searching articles in databases, such as PubMed, Google Scholar and manual searches which are then analyzed as many as 10 of the 137 journals obtained. The results showed that the most common use of eye protection was welding goggles with the highest prevalence of eye protection in welding workers, namely 98.4%. The prevalence of complaints in the eyes of welders with the largest prevalence is 74.5%. Welders experience eye complaints in the form of watery eyes, red eyes, eye strain, corneal injuries, and conjunctival disorders and presbyopia. The immediate effect that often occurs is in the form of complaints of watery eyes and then experiencing red eyes.

Abstract

Understanding the immune response to COVID-19 is critical to help develop appropriate management. Understand the description and response of the immune system that is formed in humans through COVID-19 infection. Conduct a critical review of research journals on the immune response to SARS-CoV-19. Search for articles in research journal databases using the keywords COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, and Immunity. COVID-19 patients have increased serum cytokine levels (TNFα, IL-2, IL-6, IL-10, IFNγ) compared with healthy patients. IL-6, IL-10, and CRP increased significantly with disease severity. The number of T cells decreases in COVID-19 patients, especially those who are more severe. There were no significant differences in antibody titers based on gender, age, or BMI in post-vaccine individuals. Smokers had significantly lower antibody titers after the second dose of vaccination. COVID-19 patients experience a decrease in the number of lymphocytes and an increase in CRP and cytokines such as TNFα, IL-2, IL-6, IL-10, and IFNγ, especially in severe cases. A positive correlation exists between CRP and IL-10. The number of T cells such as CD4+T and CD8+T also decreases in COVID-19 patients, especially those who are more severe. This could be a diagnostic and prognostic marker for COVID-19.

Abstract

Myopia is a common vision condition in which a person can see nearby objects clearly, but objects further away are blurry. In Indonesia, the prevalence of refractive errors ranks first, covering 25% of the population or around 55 million people. In December 2019, the novel coronavirus spread rapidly in China and around the world. Social restriction and regional quarantine policies have the potential to limit people from carrying out activities, especially in educational institutions. Purpose: to determine the prevalence of myopia sufferers and their relationship with online learning. Methods: using a total sampling technique with a cross sectional method with 162 respondents. Results: It was found that respondents who used devices for a duration of <4 hours and a distance of <30 cm tended not to experience myopia (P>0.05). By looking at the results obtained through the Chi-Square test, it can be concluded that there is no relationship between online learning and myopia. Conclusion: it can be concluded that there is no relationship between online learning and myopia in active students of FKIK UKRIDA class of 2019 and the prevalence of myopia in active students of FKIK Ukrida class of 2019 is 60.1%.

Abstract

Abstract Active Thyroid Eye Disease (TED) is a medical condition involving swelling of the muscles, tissues, and fats around the eyes. This can lead to serious symptoms including double vision and vision loss. Tepezza (Teprotumumab) is an innovative therapy that inhibits the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) and has been approved for TED treatment. Teprotumumab works by reducing inflammation and TED symptoms. Pharmacokinetic studies indicate that this drug can be effectively administered via intravenous infusion. Various studies have shown that teprotumumab can significantly reduce proptosis, diplopia, and clinical activity of TED. This therapy has proven effective in various patient groups, including those with long-standing TED and those unresponsive to other treatments. Teprotumumab holds a promising breakthrough in TED management, improving the quality of life for individuals affected by this disease. Further studies are needed to fully understand the mechanism and potential of teprotumumab in TED treatment.

Abstract

Cockroach is one of the types of insects that exists everywhere. Cockroach can live in a lot of places, such as the gutter, the trash, and even in the bathroom. Cockroach is one of the agents that is responsible for the spreading of diseases such as diarrhea, dysentery and cholera in children. In Indonesia, there exists a lot of different types of cockroach, one of it is the German Cockroach or Blattella germanica L., and the cockroach problem in Indonesia is mainly handled by using chemicals insecticides, this happens because there’s a lot and its commonly found in a lot of places. Pyrethroid based chemicals insecticides are one of the most common chemical insecticides used by the public. These chemical insecticides have various kinds of adverse effects because they leave residues that can be inhaled by humans and also consumed by humans through food products. Some of the effects of chemical insecticides are diseases of the liver, kidneys, and also problems with the central nervous system. Therefore, an alternative solution is needed in dealing with the cockroach problems in Indonesia, namely Bioinsecticides. Bioinsecticides are insecticides made using natural ingredients without the addition of chemical substances. Ginger is one of the spices that can be found anywhere, in ginger there are compounds called flavonoids, and these compounds can be used as bioinsecticides. Bioinsecticides are made by taking the ginger extract then putting the extract into a spray bottle according to the dose using a pasteur pipette.

Abstract

Bacteria are one of the component parts in every ecosystem. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a normal surface flora of the human body, as a temporary contaminant on inanimate objects such as clothing, cutlery and doorknobs, but also a oportunistic even pathogen on the host. The mutated strain of S. aureus has a cross-resistant strain against all antibiotics of the Beta Lactam, Methicillin, Oxacillin and Flucloxacillin groups, called Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). This research is needed because MRSA is a strain of bacteria that can be everywhere, especially in public facilities, such as doorknobs, which can be a place of transmission (transfer) of bacteria from one host to another. The samples in this study were taken by swabbing from the door handle in building X, Jakarta. A total of 62 samples were then cultured on Mannitol Salt Agar (MSA) media, the growing isolate was tested by Gram staining, catalase test, and mannitol. Isolate suspected of Staphylococcus aureus, ascertained whether MRSA strain using 30 μg antibiotic C efoxitin (fox) disc. The results of this study showed that 58 (87%) isolates were Staphylococcus aureus and sensitive to C efoxitin antibiotics, 8 (13%) isolates, mnitol test negative, sensitive to Ceroxitin antibiotics. The study concluded that the bacterial isolate found was Staphylococcus aureus sensitive methicillin (MSSA), no MRSA was found.
