Abstract

Background: Tailoring is an occupation performed individually. During work activities, workers are at risk of occupational diseases and injuries due to inappropriate sitting positions, prolonged static muscle activity, and poor ergonomic posture. Activities involving forward bending, improper lifting techniques, and sitting for long periods may cause pain in body parts, joints, muscles, and the back. Long hours of static, seated occupational posture often leads to urinary stasis and decreased fluid intake. Objective: To describe microscopic urine sediment findings among tailors working in Pasar Minggu, Bengkulu City. Methods: This study used a descriptive design. Data collection was conducted through direct field surveys and urine sediment examinations with purposive sampling. This study occurred in 2025. Urine sediment is examined by manual microscopic examination. The population consisted of 18 tailors at Pasar Minggu, Bengkulu City. Results: Normal erythrocyte counts were found in 10 respondents (55.5%), while abnormal erythrocyte counts were found in 8 respondents (44.4%). Normal leukocyte counts were found in 15 respondents (83.3%), while abnormal leukocyte counts were found in 3 respondents (16.6%). Negative urine crystals were found in 15 respondents (83.3%), while positive crystals were found in 3 respondents (16.6%), consisting of calcium oxalate crystals. Conclusion: the detection of positive calcium oxalate crystals in 16.6% of respondents underscores a clinical predisposition to urolithiasis (kidney stones), highlighting the urgent need for hydration and posture interventions in this workspace among tailors at Pasar Minggu, Bengkulu City

Abstract

Background : Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Pulmonary tuberculosis can be transmitted through droplets of saliva released by infected individuals when sneezing or coughing and can spread to others through the air. CRP (C-Reactive Protein) is a protein produced by the liver in response to inflammation in the body. In patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (Pulmonary TB), CRP levels often increase due to infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Objective :This study aimed to determine the description of CRP (C-Reactive Protein) levels in patients with Pulmonary Tuberculosis (Pulmonary TB) in the working area of Telaga Dewa Public Health Center, Bengkulu City. Result : This study employed a descriptive design with total sampling involving 24 patients diagnosed with Pulmonary Tuberculosis (Pulmonary TB). The study was conducted at the Medical Laboratory Technology Department Laboratory, Health Polytechnic of the Ministry of Health Bengkulu. Based on the results, it was found that out of 24 samples, the majority (79.2%) of respondents had non-reactive CRP (C-Reactive Protein) results, totaling 19 individuals, while a small proportion (20.8%) had reactive CRP results, totaling 5 individuals. Conclusion : Most pulmonary TB patients showed non-reactive CRP results.
