Folia Medica Indonesiana, as indicated by its name, focuses on publishing good quality articles about research and education on health science and medicine in Indonesia. However, due to the fast growth of science and knowledge in these fields, we also welcome submitted articles from around the world, especially the ones that contain related matters from lower-middle income countries. Folia Medica Indonesiana is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal that is published online at least four times a year. The scope covers various aspects of basic medical sciences includes anatomy, physiology, pathology, microbiology, pharmacology, and molecular medicine) and clinical medicine (covers specialties like internal medicine, surgery, pediatrics, oncology, psychiatry, etc). We highlight the pathology and potential treatment of metabolic syndromes and infectious diseases. Folia Medica Indonesiana also encourages the publication of articles about health education. The scope includes, but is not limited to, articles that emphasize on preventive education on certain diseases in a community, also research report of various materials and/or methods to develop medical education. We recognize the importance of this type of articles to be published alongside the assigned topic in each of our yearly issues, to provide our readers with updated information in medical sciences’ research and education simultaneously.

Abstract

High-intensity exercise (3000-meter runner) contributes to muscle fatigue. Fatigue can be determined by measuring blood lactate levels. Blood lactate levels are a product of anaerobic metabolism. Lactate accumulation due to anaerobic physical activity can inhibit the glycolytic enzyme that affects decreased ATP production, damage of the calcium and sodium pumps in the muscles and causes fatigue. This study aimed to analyze the effect of vitamin E on the level of fatigue through the response of blood lactate levels in the runner 3000 meters. This research was a quasi-experimental research with a pretest-posttest design. Research subjects were 9 volunteer athletes (3000 meters runners) Aceh province, male, and aged 15-20 years. The treatments were vitamin E at a dose of 1x400 IU per day and administered for 14 days. Blood lactate levels were examined using the method of calorimetry. The statistical analysis was using the homogeneity test of variance (Levene's test), the normality test (Kolmogorov-Smirnov test) and paired t-test with a significant level of 5% (p-value<0.05). The results showed that blood lactate levels decreased approximately 13.93% after vitamin E supplementation. There was no significant difference (p=0.27) between blood lactate levels before and after vitamin E supplementation in athletes. In conclusion, vitamin E supplementation did not significantly lower blood lactate levels therefore vitamin E did not significantly reduce muscle fatigue in men's athletics.

Abstract

Bone is an important organ for supports the body that stores reserve of calcium, phosphorus, and other minerals. In fracture conditions where bleeding, soft tissue edema, nerve damage, and blood vessels around the bone damage happen, they can cause the mobilization of these minerals in the surrounding tissue. One of the efforts made in the treatment of these fractures is reconnection, in which it works by filling of bone defect with a matrix and administration of anti-infection. Biomaterial filling in defective bone is thought to accelerate the healing process of bone fracture and prevent osteomyelitis. For this reason, this study evaluates the acceleration of bone fracture healing using natural hydroxyapatite (NHA) bone filler in rabbits with bone defect model. Fracture modeling was performed by surgical technique and drilling of bones with a 4.2 mm diameter to form a defect in the rabbit femur. Bone implant contained bovine hydroxyapatite-gelatin-glutaraldehyde (BHA implant) or bovine hydroxyapatite-gelatin-glutaraldehyde-gentamicin (BHA-GEN implant) that was inserted in bone defects. 27 rabbits were divided into 3 groups: the control group who had bone defect, the bone defect group was given BHA implant and the bone defect group was given BHA-GEN implant. Observation of osteoclast, osteoblast, osteocyte, BALP level, and bone morphological integrity was carried out on the 14th, 28th, and 42nd days after surgery. Histological observation of rabbit femur showed a significant difference on the number of osteoclast, osteoblast and osteocyte in all three groups. The BALP level also showed a significant difference in the group given the natural BHA bone implant compared to the control group on day 14 (p = 0.0361). Based on the result of the X-ray, there was also a better integration of rabbit femur bone in groups with the use of BHA or BHA-GEN bone implant. Thus, it can be concluded that the use of a natural BHA implant can accelerate the process of bone repair in the fracture of rabbit femur. In addition, BHA implants were compatible as a matrix for supporting the bone cell growth.

Abstract

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a glycosaminoglycan with a straight-chain polymer arrangement defined as the extracellular matrix constituent. High molecular weight HA has normal physicochemical, biological, and physiological properties whereas low molecular weight has the property of angiogenesis, inflammation, and suppresses apoptosis. This study occupied the samples of 35 paraffin block from poorly and well differentiated retinoblastoma tissue and 8 normal retinal block which have been collected for 4 years from 2010-2013 at Dr. Soetomo Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia. Afterwards, the paraffin blocks were immunohistochemically examined for HA staining, expression of cell proliferation (Ki-67), and cell apoptosis to determine intratumoral aggressiveness of retinoblastoma. HA on poorly differentiated retinoblastoma stain with a high immunostaining of 76.2%, while well differentiated retinoblastoma on the highest HA staining was revealed to be at moderate level of 64.3%, and not appear in normal retina. In poorly differentiated retinoblastoma, the location of most HA stain is in the cell cytoplasm (87.5%). In the well differentiated retinoblastoma, the HA immunostaning mainly occurred in the cell membrane (73.7%). Histopathological retinoblastoma grading showed a significant correlation (p <0.01) towards several variables of HA immunostaining, Ki-67, and cell apoptosis. In addition, the histopathological retinoblastoma grading also revealed a significant correlation (p <0.01) towards the location of HA staining (cell membrane and cytoplasm). Both stainings are also play role in retinoblastoma differentiation. The malignancy of retinoblastoma can be proven by the increased HA staining at cytoplasm in poorly differentiated and associated with increased of cell proliferation along with decreased apoptosis.
