Abstract

The landfill is a landfill that is known for its humid and dirty environment so that it can pose a risk for people living in the area to be infected with nail fungus. This study aims to conduct screening or initial examination to find out if there is dermatophyte fungus on scavenger's nails. The research was descriptive as many as 10 samples of scavenger nails obtained by purposive sampling technique and examined at the DIII Tropical Infection Laboratory, Medical Laboratory Technology, Megarezky University, Makassar. The examination methods used are the direct method and the culture method. Based on the identification using the direct method, it showed that there were no hyphae or spores (negative) and continued with the culture method and obtained the results of 6 samples there were dermatophyte fungi, namely Trichophyton rubrum, Epidermophyton flocossum, and Microsporum gypseum. There were six people infected with fungus on the nails and the fungal species were Trichophyton rubrum, Epidermophyton flocossum, and Microsporum gypseum.

Abstract

Fungal skin infections that have a fairly high prevalence in the community are tinea versicolor or Tinea Versicolor. Tinea Versicolor generally occurs in individuals with poor hygiene and sanitation conditions. School-age children have a fairly high risk of being infected with Tinea versicolor due to their high physical activity. The purpose of this study was to determine the results of Malassezia furfur identification in skin scrapings of students at State Elementary School 6 in Antiga Village, Karangasem Regency, Bali. This type of research uses a descriptive study to identify the fungus that causes tinea versicolor in students' skin scrapings using direct observation methods. The samples in this study were skin scrapings from 30 students selected using purposive sampling techniques. Laboratory examinations for Malassezia furfur identification were carried out at the Parasitology and Mycology Laboratory of STIKES Wira Medika Bali using direct observation. The results showed that out of 30 samples examined, 20 samples (67%) showed positive results for the identification of Malassezia furfur in their skin-scraping specimens and 10 samples (33%) showed negative results. Reviewed based on the frequency distribution of Malassezia furfur identification results based on gender, it is known that out of 20 positive results, 2 were female (10%) and 18 were male (90%). Based on the results of this study, it was concluded that in the sample population studied, there was a relatively high prevalence of Tinea versicolor, which was around two-thirds of the total samples examined

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) continues to pose a growing global health threat, with over 90% of Indonesia’s regions affected. This study reviews the association between Ae. albopictus larvae density and DHF incidence in Indonesia through a Systematic Literature Review using PRISMA guidelines, analyzing journals from the past 10 years. The findings reveal that high larval density, especially in outdoor and public areas such as terminals and restaurants, plays a significant role in dengue transmission. Some locations reported vector indices exceeding thresholds (e.g., House Index >50%, Breteau Index >100), indicating high transmission risk. While not all studies demonstrated statistically significant correlations, most highlighted environmental conditions, types of water containers, sanitation, and population density as major contributing factors. The study concludes that effective DHF control requires a multisectoral strategy involving species-specific vector mapping and community-based interventions, targeting both domestic and public spaces to reduce mosquito breeding and mitigate disease spread

Abstract

Lymphatic filariasis is a chronic infectious disease caused by filarial worms and transmitted by mosquito vectors. Kalimantan is an endemic area for filariasis with various mosquito species and environmental factors contributing to its transmission. This study aims to identify dominant mosquito vector species and the environmental conditions that support the transmission of filarial worms in Kalimantan using a Systematic Literature Review approach. Relevant literature was gathered from scientific databases such as PubMed and Google Scholar, focusing on the last ten years. The results indicate that mosquito species such as Mansonia uniformis, Mansonia dives, Anopheles barbirostris, and several Culex species act as primary vectors in several provinces. Habitats like swamps, rice fields, and water pools, combined with factors such as warm temperatures, high humidity, nighttime activity, and reservoir hosts like cats, contribute to transmission risks. This review highlights the importance of ecological-based strategies for sustainable filariasis control in Kalimantan.

Abstract

The green blowfly (Chrysomya spp.), particularly Chrysomya megacephala, is recognized as a significant mechanical vector in the transmission of diarrheal pathogens. Traditional markets provide an ideal habitat for these flies due to poor sanitation and the presence of organic waste. This study aims to review the role of Chrysomya spp. in spreading diarrheal pathogens in traditional markets. A qualitative descriptive method was applied through literature review of research articles published in the last ten years. The analysis revealed that Chrysomya megacephala carries pathogenic bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp., Shigella spp., Serratia sp., and multidrug-resistant strains like ESBL-producing E. coli. Flies facilitate pathogen transmission via cross-contamination when contacting food after exposure to contaminated materials. These findings highlight the urgent need for vector control and improved market sanitation as key strategies in diarrheal disease prevention.

Abstract

The pre-analytical stage is one of the most complex stages to control. The pre-analytical stage has a series of variables and several critical points associated with various errors. Pre-analytical stage errors can account for up to 70% of total laboratory errors. The impact of errors at this stage cannot be ignored because the information provided from clinical laboratory results can be influential in up to 60-70% of clinical decisions. This research aims to find out the percentage of results from the analysis of the frequency of errors in the pre-analytic stage in routine hematology examinations in hospitals. This study uses the descriptive-quantitative method with data collection techniques using primary data on laboratory workers at Bhayangkara Hospital Palembang and Muhammadiyah Hospital Palembang, each with 15 respondents. Results, type-stage error pre-analytical examination hematology routine in the laboratory of Hospital "X" received a score 97.3% with a very good category, while in the hospital laboratory "Y"got a score 93.6% with a very good category. Data processing uses univariate analysis, resulting in the finding that there is no significant difference between both hospitals. Conclusion, type stage error pre-analytic inspection routine hematology for staff in the laboratories of Hospital "X and Hospital "Y" Palembang can be stated as good, and there is no significant difference between both hospitals.
