Abstract

Hypertension is the leading cause of premature death worldwide. An estimated 1.28 billion  adults aged 30-79 years worldwide have hypertension. Treatment of hypertension is usually aimed at preventing morbidity and mortality from hypertension. The choice of drugs for each patient's hypertension depends on the metabolic and subjective side effects caused. This study aims to determine the effectiveness profile of antihypertensive drugs amlodipine 10 mg or lisinopril 10 mg in outpatients at the Sidoarjo Pratama Clinic for January- March 2023. This research method is observational, with a cross-sectional approach and data collection. Quantitative analysis was then done using the statistical program SPSS 24 with univariate analysis. The results of the independent t-test showed a significance value for the systolic category of 0.780 > 0.05 and a significance value for the diastolic category of 0.931 > 0.05. Patients receiving therapy with amlodipine 10 mg or lisinopril 10 mg reached the target in 30 patients. After doing the independent t-test before and after therapy in both the systolic category and the diastolic category, it can be concluded that there is no significant difference in the effectiveness of the two groups.

Abstract

Jaminan Kesehatan Nasional (JKN) is mandatory for every Indonesian. Some of them have to be independent participantswho need to pay the monthly fee by themselves. The monthly fee has fluctuated since 2014, and right before the COVID-19 pandemic. This research aimed to determine the willingness to pay for the independent participants before and during the pandemic using an online survey. Results showed that of 34 participants from Semarang, most of them have 2 members of the family (31%), 3 (26%), 5 (14%) 4 (9%) and need to pay for themselves only (17%). Most of them become second-class members (40%), first-class (31%), and third-class (26%). The willingness to pay during the pandemic was lower for all type of memberships significantly (p <0,05) and if the membership fee was raised by 10%, 20%, and 30 %, the rejection was increased (74%, 89%, and 94%). Most of the participants agreed that the pandemic has impacted their economic situation so they considered choosing a lower class because they did not only choose the type of membership based on the benefits but also the amount of the monthly fee.

Abstract

Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is the resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to at least two tuberculosis (TB) drugs, rifampicin and isoniazid. The disease requires a long treatment duration with several second-line drugs. This leads to a globally low success rate of approximately 56% for MDR-TB treatment.  Studies have reported that adverse drug reactions (ADRs) contribute to high rates of non-compliance, treatment discontinuation, and failure. This narrative review aimed to provide information about MDR-TB treatment modalities, various ADRs, challenges encountered in MDR-TB treatment, and instances of ADRs that can impact treatment success. This narrative review study was conducted by searching for scientific information from the primary electronic databases PubMed and Google Scholar, covering 2012-2022. Based on the literature search results, 14 studies were identified, demonstrating challenges in TB and MDR-TB treatment, along with 6 ADRs that can influence treatment success in MDR-TB patients. ADRs during MDR-TB treatment can affect patients’ physical, mental, and social well-being as well as their beliefs and behaviors related to treatment. Comprehensive support from families, communities, and healthcare providers is essential to assist patients in addressing treatment challenges and adverse ADRs. Rapid identification and strategies for monitoring and managing treatment challenges and ADRs can improve compliance and success of MDR-TB treatment.

Abstract

Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is a plant that is native to Africa and South America. This plant can grow well in tropical areas, such as Indonesia. Indonesia is currently one of the largest producers of palm oil worldwide. As the area of palm oil plantations increases, the potential for waste from this plant continues to increase. The potential for palm oil leaf waste production in Indonesia is 658 kg dry matter/hectare/year. Palm oil leaf waste has been widely processed into organic fertilizers and animal feeds. This plant has the potential to be developed into a source of traditional medicinal ingredients. Based on the abundant sources of palm oil leaves and their pharmacological potential, palm oil leaves can be used as a source of raw materials for traditional medicine. This study aimed to compare the antioxidant activities of oil palm leaf extracts obtained by maceration and reflux to determine which extraction method produces the best antioxidant activity. Extraction was carried out using 70% ethanol solvent by maceration and reflux. The results of the phytochemical screening showed that oil palm leaves contain flavonoids, polyphenols, saponins, quinones, steroid-triterpenoids, and monoterpene-sesquiterpenes. Antioxidant activity using a UV-Visible spectrophotometer with DPPH free radicals showed that the extract obtained by maceration and reflux methods had IC50 values of 46.61 ± 1.76 ug/mL and 55.21 ± 2.91 ug/mL respectively. Therefore, extraction by maceration produces a better antioxidant activity.  Keywords: Palm leaves; Traditional medicine; Extraction; Active compound stability; Antioxidant
