Abstract

Background: The chronic disease service program is designed for all BPJS Kesehatan members who suffer from chronic diseases including type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension. Hypertension is diagnosed when a person has systolic blood pressure ≥ 140 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 90 mm Hg. Cholesterol, uric acid and blood sugar are triggers for non-communicable diseases, one of which is hypertension. Based on the background above, researchers are interested in conducting a study that aims to determine the relationship between cholesterol, uric acid and blood sugar levels with the incidence of hypertension in Prolanis patients aged 50-75 years at the Paron Health Center, Ngawi Regency in the period January-March 2024. Methods: This study is a cross-sectional study with an observational analysis method using primary data. The population that became the subject of this study were Prolanis hypertension patients aged 50-75 years at the Paron Health Center, Ngawi Regency with a sample taken for this study of 52 patients who had met the inclusion criteria. The data analysis of this study used the chi square test. Results: Based on gender, Prolanis hypertension patients aged 50-75 years in women are 79.5% high cholesterol levels, and male patients are 46.2% high cholesterol levels, in women 56.4% have high uric acid levels and male patients are 53.8% have high uric acid levels, in women 7.7% high blood sugar levels and male patients are 7.7% have high blood sugar levels. Based on obesity status, Prolanis hypertension patients aged 50-75 years who are obese are 89.2% high cholesterol levels and non-obese are 26.7% high cholesterol levels, obese patients are 64.9% high uric acid levels and non-obese patients are 33.3% high uric acid levels, obese patients are 5.4% high blood sugar levels and non-obese patients are 13.3% high blood sugar levels. Conclusion: Based on gender, there is a relationship between cholesterol levels, with the incidence of hypertension in Prolanis patients aged 50-75 years. However, there is no relationship between uric acid levels and blood sugar levels with the incidence of hypertension in Prolanis patients aged 50-75 years. Based on obesity status, there is a relationship between cholesterol and uric acid levels with the incidence of hypertension in Prolanis patients aged 50-75 years. However, there is no relationship between blood sugar levels with the incidence of hypertension in Prolanis patients aged 50-75 years.

Abstract

Background: The double burden of malnutrition among pregnant women remains a critical public health issue in Indonesia. Cultural values, traditions, and patriarchal norms strongly influence caregiving practices, food distribution, and dietary intake within households, thereby shaping maternal nutritional status and contributing to stunting in children. Methods: This study employed a Systematic Literature Review approach by searching Google Scholar and ResearchGate databases using the keywords “Stunting,” “Culture,” “Tradition,” “Customs,” “Parenting,” and “Double Burden of Malnutrition.” Articles were screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, resulting in nine eligible studies from an initial 340 and 9 article in analyze. Results: The review revealed that patriarchal culture leads to unequal food distribution and limited decision-making power for women, increasing the risk of micronutrient deficiencies despite excess caloric intake. Food taboos during pregnancy and postpartum further restrict protein and micronutrient consumption. Moreover, early marriage practices and low parental nutrition literacy exacerbate intergenerational malnutrition, where obese mothers coexist with stunted children. On the other hand, evidence highlights the positive role of fathers’ involvement in caregiving and household food decisions, which contributes to improved child nutritional outcomes. Conclusion: The double burden of malnutrition among pregnant women is not merely a biomedical problem but a socio-cultural construct shaped by patriarchal norms, food taboos, and early marriage practices. Addressing this issue requires culturally sensitive nutrition interventions that empower women, promote gender equality, enhance parental nutrition literacy, and strengthen fathers’ roles in childcare and food management to break the cycle of malnutrition across generations.

Abstract

Background: Histotechnology is a series of procedures used to prepare histological specimens for microscopic analysis. One of the critical steps in this process is fixation, which serves to preserve tissue structure and prevent changes in shape or size. However, excessive fixation duration may lead to over-hardening of tissues, resulting in reduced quality of histological observations. Objectives: To evaluate the feasibility of two week formalin 10% fixation period on histological quality of kidney, liver, and pancreas tissues. Methods: After a 14-day adaptation period, male Sprague Dawley rats were anesthetized, necropsied, and their kidney, liver, and pancreas were fixed in 10% formalin. Histotechnical procedures included graded alcohol dehydration, toluene clearing, paraffin embedding, 6 µm sectioning, and HE staining. Preparations were observed using an Olympus BX41 microscope at magnifications of 4x–40x. Results: Two-week fixation caused structural damage to the kidney, liver, and pancreas. Damage observed included glomeruli and tubules in the kidney, the portal triad structure in the liver, and the Langerhans islet cells in the pancreas. Statistical results (if any) should be included here. Conclusions: Fixation for two weeks did not produce adequate histological preparations, and therefore, it is not recommended as a reference for developing histotechnology SOPs in related laboratories.

Abstract

Latar belakang: Diabetes melitus tipe 2 merupakan penyakit metabolic kronis yang ditandai dengan hiperglikemia akibat gangguan produksi atau kerja insulin. Penggunaan bahan alam seperti bawang putih dan buah pare menjadi alternatif pengobatan karena kandungan senyawa aktif yang bersifat antidiabetik. Tujuan: Meneliti pengaruh pemberian ekstrak etanol bawang putih dan buah pare terhadap kadar glukosa darah pada tikus putih (Rattus norvegicus) yang diinduksi hiperglikemik. Metode: Penelitian eksperimental dengan 7 kelompok perlakuan, yaitu kontrol negatif (K− ), kontrol positif (K+), obat glibenklamid (P0), ekstrak bawang putih dosis 100 mg/kgBB (P1) dan 150 mg/kgBB (P2), serta ekstrak buah pare dosis 100 mg/kgBB (P3) dan 150 mg/kgBB (P4). Kadar glukosa darah diukur setelah pemberian perlakuan selama 14 hari. Hasil: Rata-rata kadar glukosa tertinggi terdapat pada K+ (448,2 mg/dL) dan terendah pada P4 (103,4 mg/dL). Uji Kruskal-Wallis menunjukkan perbedaan signifikan antar kelompok (p<0,05). Kesimpulan: Ekstrak bawang putih dan buah pare efektif menurunkan kadar glukosa darah, terutama pada dosis 150 mg/kgBB buah pare yang menunjukkan penurunan paling signifikan.
