Abstract

Background: Sedentary behavior, characterized by prolonged sitting or lying down, is increasingly recognized as a major health risk, particularly for individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Previous studies have shown that sedentary lifestyles can exacerbate glucose control issues, leading to poor glycemic regulation and an increased risk of complications. This study aims to explore the relationship between sedentary behavior and blood glucose levels in T2DM patients, highlighting the potential benefits of interrupting sedentary time with physical activity. Methods: This research utilized a comprehensive literature review methodology, analyzing studies published over the past decade to assess the impact of sedentary behavior on glycemic control in T2DM patients. The review focused on both observational studies and experimental trials, employing data from clinical studies and patient monitoring. Findings: Prolonged sedentary behavior was found to be associated with worsening glucose control, including prolonged hyperglycemia and reduced euglycemia. Interrupting sedentary time with short bouts of physical activity (e.g., walking or light exercise) was shown to significantly improve glucose uptake in skeletal muscles, providing effects similar to anti-diabetic medications. Consistent and frequent interruption of sedentary behavior resulted in improved daily blood glucose control, potentially offering a non-pharmacological intervention for T2DM management. Conclusion: The study underscores the importance of reducing sedentary behavior in T2DM patients as a strategy to enhance blood glucose control and prevent complications. Regular physical activity interruptions can serve as a critical non-pharmacological intervention to manage and control blood glucose levels. Novelty/Originality of this article: This review contributes to the growing body of evidence on the health risks of sedentary behavior in T2DM patients, emphasizing the potential of simple lifestyle interventions to improve glycemic control, which has been insufficiently explored in previous literature.

Abstract

Backgorund: Monkeypox is a zoonotic infection caused by the monkeypox virus (MONKEYPOXV), which has the potential to be transmitted from animals to humans. This virus can be transmitted through direct contact with infected animals such as monkeys, rats, and squirrels. In 2023, the World Health Organization classified monkeypox as a global pandemic, prompting stricter prevention measures worldwide. Given the significant increase in the number of cases and the challenges in controlling the spread of the virus, this study aims to develop a SEIVR (Susceptible, Exposed, Infected, Vaccinated, Recovered) mathematical model that can describe the dynamics of the spread of the monkeypox virus in Indonesia. Methods: There are two cases of the SEIVR model that will be studied; those are disease-free and endemic cases. From the cases, the stability of the model will be found. The Routh-Hurwitz criterion will also be used to analyze the stability due to the complexity of the eigenvalues. Findings: In the study conducted, simulations indicated that the infected population would coexist or remain for a fairly long time. This phenomenon is caused by the stable nature of the model. The dynamics of the model can also be seen by considering the obtained reproductive number. Although the infected population persists for a long time, the numbers are quite low. Conclusion: Vaccination does not have a significant impact. Therefore, further research using a treatment compartment or virus transition in rodents needs to be conducted for further study. Novelty/Originality of this Article: The novelty of this research lies in the use of the SEIVR model to map the spread of monkeypox in Indonesia and analyze its stability using the Routh-Hurwitz criteria and numerical simulations. This approach provides an initial overview of case persistence and vaccination effectiveness.

Abstract

Background: Carbuncle is a confluent folliculitis that is infection affecting multiple hair follicles leading to multiple sinuses discharging pus. Optimisation of co-morbidities such as diabetes, adequate hydration, and antibiotics and are mainstay of initial treatment. Surgical intervention in the form of debridement and desloughing followed by wound care is the next line of management. The aim of this study was to know the effectiveness of co-amoxiclav antibiotic therapy in carbuncle patients with type II diabetes mellitus at the Surgical Polyclinic of Sabu Raijua Regional Hospital. Methods: This type of research is quantitative research using a cross-sectional retrospective approach. The sample in this study was patient data collection through medical records from 2023 to 2024 who underwent co-amoxiclav therapy of 1000 mg every 8 hours orally for 10 days accompanied by incision drainage with local anesthesia of 2% lidocaine with a carbuncle size of >10 cm who were treated at the Surgical Polyclinic of Sabu Raijua Hospital, totaling 10 patients. Findings: The results of therapy with co-amoxiclav antibiotic 1000 mg every 8 hours orally for 10 days accompanied by incision drainage with local anesthesia lidocaine 2% with carbuncle size >10 cm who received treatment were 10 patients who successfully recovered with outpatient care, did not experience complications or readmissions. Conclusion: In early-stage carbuncle cases, treatment with oral co-amoxiclav antibiotics alone is possible and effective, although incision and drainage should still be performed as early as possible. Novelty/Originality of this Article: This study demonstrates the effectiveness of the combination of oral co-amoxiclav 1000 mg/8 hours for 10 days with incision-drainage in carbuncles >10 cm with type II DM, which can be successfully treated as an outpatient without complications or readmissions.

Abstract

Background: Hospital pharmaceutical services are critical to achieving high-quality healthcare. Waiting time for outpatient prescription services is a key performance indicator and a major concern for patients, particularly in Indonesia’s BPJS Kesehatan (National Health Insurance) program. At Hermina Bekasi Hospital, long prescription wait times have led to patient dissatisfaction, prompting this study to evaluate the waiting time for non-compounded prescriptions to assess compliance with national standards. Methods: This study employed a mixed methods design with an explanatory sequential approach. The quantitative phase involved observing 100 non-compounded outpatient prescriptions in March 2023 to measure waiting times. Data were analyzed for average durations and compliance with the ≤30-minute standard set by the Ministry of Health. The qualitative phase included in-depth interviews with five pharmacy staff, using an input-process-output framework to identify underlying causes of delay. Findings: Only 2% of prescriptions met the 30-minute standard; the average waiting time was 1 hour and 50 minutes, with a maximum of 3 hours and 32 minutes. The verification stage was the most time-consuming. Factors contributing to delays included inadequate human resources, insufficient facilities and infrastructure, SOP implementation gaps, overlapping doctor practice hours, and distant medication storage. These delays caused patient complaints and risked non-compliance with hospital accreditation benchmarks. Conclusion: The waiting time for non-compounded outpatient prescription services at Hermina Bekasi Hospital fails to meet national standards. Improvements are urgently needed in human resources allocation, doctor scheduling, infrastructure, and process efficiency to reduce delays and enhance service quality. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study offers a comprehensive evaluation using a mixed-methods framework to diagnose systemic inefficiencies in prescription services within a BPJS healthcare setting. The integration of both quantitative and qualitative insights provides actionable recommendations, such as layout redesign and warehousing solutions, which are often overlooked in similar studies.
