Abstract

Nigella sativa (NS) has been used for many years as an anti-bacterial herbal treatment, such as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, but the mechanism in bacterial elimination is still unknown. IL-1β is a proinflammatory cytokine that helps the immune system eliminate microbes when it enters the body. The purpose of this study was to prove the immunomodulatory effects of Nigella sativa extract through increased IL-1β in dealing with MRSA infections. The design of this study was post-test only control group design using 25 male Balb-c mice infected with MRSA and randomly divided into five groups. Group K was infected with MRSA without being treated. All treatment groups were given NS extracts in different doses for 7 days before being infected with MRSA. P1 was given N. sativa extract 0.05ml, P2 (was given NS extract 0.25ml, P3 was given 0.5ml NS extract, and P4 was given 0.75ml NS. On the 8th day, blood was taken from the retroorbital plexus for IL-1β level examination using ELISA. Statistical tests were done using the One Way ANOVA test. The results showed the mean of IL-1β levels in group K was 11.65ng/L, P1 was 14.07ng/L, P2 was 16.66ng/L, P3 was 18.54ng/L, and P4 was 19.49ng/L which showed an increase in IL-1β levels along with the addition of black cumin dose although there was no difference between groups (p=0.578: ANOVA test). Nigella sativa extract is not proven effective in increasing IL-1β levels of Balb-c mice infected with MRSA.

Abstract

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a pathogen that becomes the main concern since it is a multidrug-resistant organism and causes high morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to investigate the antibacterial activity of ethanolic extract of Phaleria macrocarpa leaves, peel, and fruit flesh on MRSA. This study was an experimental laboratory study with a post-test only control group design to assess the antibacterial activity of ethanolic extract from leaves, peel, and fruit flesh of Phaleria macrocarpa against MRSA ATCC 43300 and MRSA clinical isolates using a disk diffusion method. Extracts from the leaves, peel, and flesh of Phaleria macrocarpa had potential as an antibacterial agent against MRSA ATCC 43300 at a concentration of 40%, although not yet equivalent to antibiotic control. The ethanol extract of Phaleria macrocarpa peel at a concentration of 30-40% had potential as an antibacterial agent against MRSA clinical isolates, although not yet equivalent to antibiotic control. Further research needs to be performed so that Phaleria macrocarpa extract can be a potential source of subsequent antibacterial development against MRSA.

Abstract

Unripe dates are believed by Indonesian citizens to increase fertility. This study aimed to assess the effect of unripe dates in the ovary of rats. Fresh yellow-colored dates were dried in an oven and crushed into powder. Eighteen rats aged three months and had given birth once were randomly divided into three groups. The treatment groups were given unripe dates at doses of 160mg/kgBW and 320mg/kgBW through a feeding tube for 28 days, and the control group was only given distilled water. Histopathological examination was carried out by the pathology expert using Hematoxylin-Eosin staining to observe the number of ovarian follicles according to their maturation stage. The results showed that the administration of unripe dates powder 320mg/kgBW increased corpus luteum number (21.50±4.72) and was statistically significant compared to the control group (15.16±3.71). Similar differences were also found in other stages of the follicle although not statistically significant. Administration of unripe date powder can increase ovulation induction among fertile rats.

Abstract

The effects of using proteasome inhibitors on atherosclerosis could be beneficial or detrimental. This study aimed to analyze the effects of proteasome inhibitors in the progression stage. Experimental animals (18 rats) were divided into three groups, namely control (C) as a group of rats given standard feed, P1 as atherosclerosis-induced rat group, and P2 as atherosclerosis-induced rat group and given proteasome inhibitors. Proteasome inhibitor administered was bortezomib at a dose of 50µg/kgBW/day intraperitoneally on day 1 and 3. After four days of treatment, the termination and measurement of serum total cholesterol, serum triglycerides, and abdominal aorta histopathology with hematoxylin-eosin staining were carried out. Serum total cholesterol levels were measured using the CHOD-PAP (Cholesterol Oxidase-Peroxidase Aminoantypirin) method, whereas serum triglyceride levels were measured using the GPO-PAP (glycerol phosphatase oxidase−phenol4-amino antipyrene peroxidase) method. Histopathological assessment was carried out with a scoring system in 9 fields of view with a 400x magnification, which was then averaged. The ANOVA test showed significant differences in serum total cholesterol, serum triglycerides, and abdominal aortic histopathology between atherosclerosis and control groups, but there were no significant differences in the administration of bortezomib in atherosclerosis except in serum triglyceride levels. It can be concluded that the administration of 50µg/kg bortezomib for four days in the rats model of the progression stage of atherosclerosis can decrease serum triglyceride levels, although it can not inhibit the formation of atherosclerotic lesions and has no effect on serum total cholesterol.

Abstract

Weight-gain is one of the antipsychotic side effects, and it can increase the risk factor of metabolic syndrome. Several studies relate it to increase leptin levels. This research was conducted to determine the profile of leptin levels in schizophrenic patients who were receiving antipsychotic therapy at Prof. DR. HB Saanin Mental Hospital. The research was conducted from November 2019 to January 2020 on schizophrenic patients who were taking antipsychotic drugs. This research was conducted on 50 samples by using consecutive sampling techniques. Data analysis using univariate are presented in geometric mean and CI 95%. Moreover, a Comparison of leptin levels between groups was performed by T-test and one-way ANOVA. The average leptin level from 50 samples of schizophrenic patients was 5.12µg/ml (CI 95%=3.32-7.90). The highest average leptin level is from the 46-55 year age group which is 11.32µg/ml (CI 95% =5.24 - 24.42), female is  13.29µg/ml (CI 95%=5.84-30.26), BMI ≥30kg/m2  is 12.84µg/ml (CI 95%=4.31-38.23), subjects with above-average waist circumference is 5.54µg/ml ( CI 95%=3.45-8.90), and the atypical group of drugs is 6.08µg/ml (IK 95%=3.41-10.84). Increasing levels of leptin occur in schizophrenic patients who were 46-55 y.o, female BMI ≥30kg/m2, above-average waist circumference, and receiving atypical antipsychotics.

Abstract

Excessive usage of synthetic pediculicides, such as permethrin, lindane, and malathion, can induce resistance, environmental pollution, health problems, and even death. Efforts to prevent the side-effects of synthetic pediculicides are needed, one of which is by shifting to powerful yet safe natural pediculicides, such as Citrus limon (lemon) and Allium sativum (garlic). This study aimed to observe the effective concentration of Citrus limon and Allium sativum in vitro on the mortality of Pediculus humanus capitis (P. h. capitis). This research was an experimental laboratory study conducted in July to September 2019 in the Laboratory of Parasitology at Faculty of Medicine, University of Riau, while the making of Allium sativum extract was done at the Faculty of Mathematics and Science, University of Riau. A total of 288 samples of adult P. h. capitis was taken from children in two orphanages in Pekanbaru. Citrus limon juice and Allium sativum extract of 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% concentrations, permethrin 1% as the positive control, and distilled water as the negative control were used in this study, and repetition was done three times. P. h. capitis mortality was observed every 10 - 120 minutes, characterized by the absence of movement of the legs and antenna. Data analysis was performed after 120 minutes with the one-way ANOVA test, LSD (=0.05), and Lethal Concentration 50 test (LC50). The one-way ANOVA test results of this study showed that statistically Citrus limon juice and Allium sativum extracts showed differences in each treatment formulation of juice on P. h. capitis mortality (Sig 0.017<0.05 and Sig 0.000<0.05) and LC50 juice of Citrus limon and Allium sativum extract by 51.999% and 72.426%. In this study, Citrus limon juice and Allium sativum extract had effect as pediculicides.

Abstract

Medication errors, ranging from prescription to administration errors, are still problems of patient safety with an average error rate of 8% - 10% and can cause severe morbidity, prolonged length of stay (LOS) in a hospital, unnecessary diagnostic tests and care, and mortality. The objective of this study is to describe the number of medication errors and their potential causes according to the perceptions of health personnel. The study was carried out by questionnaires, interviews, and data exploration on prescriptions made before the observation period and new prescriptions made during the observation period. The priority determination of the solutions was carried out using Capability, Assessibility, Readiness, and Leverage method (CARL) and discussions with related units. The priority root factors that caused medication errors in the inpatient pharmacy at RSI Malang were high workloads and high turnover of inpatient pharmacist, incomplete prescription identity, illegible doctor's writing, and lack of training for the pharmacist. The priority outcome of the alternative solutions to overcome the medication errors in inpatient pharmacist is to regularly conduct training or knowledge refreshing for the inpatient pharmacist at RSI Malang and the implementation of e-prescription.

Abstract

The surgery rooms have an important role in the hospital, so it must be managed properly. The surgery rooms consume 9% of the annual hospital budget. High operational costs caused by the large cost of human resources, medical materials, and other supporting facilities. This study was conducted in a private hospital type C with 181 beds and has four surgery rooms. The number of patients which was operated in X Hospital was very high, and the highest number in July 2019 reached 515 patients. There were a large supply of drugs and medical devices in the surgery rooms.  The number of each drug reached hundreds ampoule, and medical devices reached tens and some in the hundreds. The management of pharmaceutical supplies in the surgery rooms was carried out by senior nurse head of surgery rooms. Monitoring logistic by pharmacy officer only done once a month. This made excessive of stock and become expired. The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors that cause the lack of pharmaceutical logistics monitoring in the surgery rooms. Determination the root of the problem was done by using a fishbone diagram through a Focus Group Discussion with the division heads and subdivision heads of X Hospital. Focus Group Discussion is done by asking the participants one by one to find the root of the problem based on five factors (man, material, method, machine, and environment). Obtained 8 root problems then analyzed with 5 why to get the main root problem. Furthermore, determine the biggest problem using the CARL (capability, accessibility, readiness, and leverage) method, with a weighting score between 1-5. The results found that the absence of pharmaceutical logistics monitoring SOP in the surgery rooms was the most contributing factor to the lack of pharmaceutical logistics monitoring in the surgery rooms.

Abstract

The prevalence of allergic diseases has increased in the last decade. Therefore, precise and reliable in predicting allergy in children were needed. However, in daily practice, most misdiagnosis occurs because it is only based on a family history of allergy. This study aims to evaluate the chronicity, recurrence of symptoms with similar exposure, and family history of allergy to be used as a predictor of allergy in children with respiratory symptoms. Cross sectional study was conducted in children who referred to the Pediatric Allergy and Immunology Outpatient Clinic, Dr. Soetomo General Hospital, Surabaya from January 1st - July 31st 2019. Children with a suspected allergy who developed respiratory symptoms was included. The data was taken from standardized medical record. The sensitivity and specificity of the 3 characteristics of atopic with positive SPT were calculated. A total of 115 children were admitted and 109 children fulfill the inclusion criteria. Gender 60% male and 40% female. The most common group of age founded was age 5-<10 years 39.4%, followed by 1-<3 years (25.8%), 3-<5 years (22.9%), 10 years 8.3%, and <1 year (3.6%). Fifty-four patients (49.5%) fulfilled 3 characteristics of atopy and there were 64 patients (58.7%) with positive SPT results. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 81.3%, 95.6%, 96.3%, and 78.2%, respectively. The 3 characteristics of atopy have good sensitivity and specificity to predict allergy in children.
