Abstract

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent endocrine disorder associated with infertility in a substantial number of women globally. This study aimed to investigate the potential role of oxytocin (OXT) in PCOS pathogenesis and its implications for oxidative stress. A cohort of 120 females, comprising 60 PCOS patients and 60 healthy controls, aged between 25 and 31, was examined. Serum concentrations of OXT, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and myeloperoxidase (MPO) were measured. The results revealed significantly decreased OXT levels in PCOS patients compared to controls (p<0.001). Additionally, PCOS patients exhibited elevated MPO levels and reduced SOD levels, suggesting increased oxidative stress. Furthermore, a positive correlation between OXT and SOD and a negative correlation between OXT and MPO were observed within the PCOS group. These findings highlight the potential of OXT as a diagnostic tool and predictor of ovarian response and treatment success in PCOS, emphasizing the need to target oxytocin for mitigating oxidative stress in this complex endocrine disorder. Highlights: Oxytocin Deficiency: This study identifies significantly reduced oxytocin levels in PCOS patients, shedding light on its potential role in the disorder's pathogenesis. Oxidative Stress Imbalance: PCOS patients displayed an imbalance in oxidative stress markers, with elevated myeloperoxidase and reduced superoxide dismutase levels, indicating increased oxidative stress. Diagnostic and Therapeutic Implications: Oxytocin emerges as a promising diagnostic tool and predictor of ovarian response and treatment success in PCOS, emphasizing its potential as a therapeutic target to mitigate oxidative stress in this complex endocrine disorder. Keywords: PCOS,Oxytocin,Oxidative Stress,Infertility,Diagnostic Tool

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the influence of COVID-19 vaccination on liver function and blood parameters, specifically Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV) and Hemoglobin (HGB) levels, among young adults (aged 18-32) in Anbar province. Blood samples from 50 individuals were collected at Ramadi Teaching Hospital, with half of the participants vaccinated and the other half unvaccinated. Results revealed a significant decrease in MCV and HGB levels among the vaccinated group compared to the unvaccinated group. Concurrently, liver function indicators, including Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT), Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP), and Bilirubin, showed a marked increase in the vaccinated individuals, indicating potential hematological disorders and liver injury. These findings underscore the importance of COVID-19 vaccination while highlighting the need for continued monitoring of liver health and blood parameters in vaccinated individuals to mitigate potential long-term health implications. Highlights: COVID-19 vaccination in young adults may lead to a significant decrease in Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV) and Hemoglobin (HGB) levels. Liver function indicators such as Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT), Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP), and Bilirubin exhibit a notable increase in vaccinated individuals. Continuous monitoring of liver health and blood parameters is crucial for assessing potential long-term health implications associated with COVID-19 vaccination. Keywords: COVID-19 Vaccination, Liver Function, Blood Parameters, Young Adults, Anbar Province.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the potential of combining uric acid levels with pro-inflammatory cytokines, specifically interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and the myokine irisin, to enhance the precision of gout diagnosis. The patient group comprised 80 individuals with gout, while the control group included 70 healthy subjects. Serum levels of IL-1β and irisin were measured in both groups, and Pearson correlation analysis was employed to assess their relationships with serum uric acid. Results revealed that gout patients exhibited significantly higher levels of IL-1β and serum uric acid but lower irisin levels compared to the control group. Negative correlations were observed between irisin and IL-1β, as well as between irisin and uric acid. Conversely, a positive correlation was found between serum uric acid and IL-1β. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis demonstrated high diagnostic accuracy for both IL-1β and irisin in discriminating gout patients from healthy individuals, suggesting their potential utility as diagnostic indicators for gout. This study underscores the promise of combining IL-1β, irisin, and uric acid measurements to enhance the accuracy of gout diagnosis, paving the way for further multicenter trials to validate this approach's effectiveness. Highlights: Novel Diagnostic Approach: This study proposes a novel diagnostic approach for gout by combining serum levels of uric acid with pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and myokine irisin, demonstrating its potential to enhance precision. Correlation Insights: The study reveals significant correlations between uric acid, IL-1β, and irisin levels, shedding light on the intricate relationship between inflammation, myokines, and gout pathophysiology. Diagnostic Accuracy: High diagnostic accuracy, as indicated by ROC curve analysis, underscores the clinical utility of IL-1β and irisin as potential indicators for gout diagnosis, offering a promising avenue for improved clinical assessment. Keywords: Gout Diagnosis, Interleukin-1β, Irisin, Uric Acid, Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines.

Abstract

This study explores the impact of individual morality and internal controls on fraud risk in the implementation of healthcare assurance by Indonesia's BPJS. It emphasizes the moderating role of organizational ethics. Using a quantitative approach and Partial Least Square (PLS) analysis, data was gathered via direct surveys from Rumah Sakit Umum Al-Islam H.M. Mawardi Krian employees. The results indicate that individual morality has a limited effect on fraud risk, with individual moral reasoning playing a key role in behavior. However, internal controls significantly mitigate fraud risk, aligning with the fraud triangle theory's principles. Surprisingly, organizational ethical culture weakens the link between individual morality and internal control in relation to fraud risk, as a strong ethical culture raises standards and influences employee conduct positively. In conclusion, the study highlights the importance of strengthening internal controls in healthcare institutions to enhance employee ethics and prevent fraud. Future research could extend this investigation to include manufacturing companies, broadening our understanding of factors mitigating fraud risk in BPJS healthcare assurance. Involving multiple healthcare institutions would enhance the generalizability of these findings. highlights : Individual moral reasoning levels do not significantly impact fraud risk in healthcare assurance implementation, emphasizing the complexity of ethical decision-making. Effective internal controls are crucial in mitigating fraudulent activities, aligning with the principles of the fraud triangle theory. Organizational ethical culture can either strengthen or weaken the relationship between individual morality and internal control, highlighting the role of corporate ethics in shaping employee behavior and reducing fraud risk. Keywords : Individual Morality, Internal Control, Organizational Ethics, Fraud Risk, Healthcare Assurance

Abstract

This quantitative study investigates the impact of capital structure and company size on the timeliness of financial reporting within Indonesia's industrial and real estate sectors listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2019 to 2021. Utilizing multiple regression analysis and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) with the Eviews program, the research finds that while capital structure does not significantly affect timeliness, company size positively influences it. However, auditor quality does not moderate either relationship. The results suggest that larger companies tend to adhere more closely to reporting deadlines, potentially due to their deeper understanding of regulations, while auditor quality does not alter this dynamic. Highlights: 1. Analyzes capital structure, company size impact on Indonesian financial reporting timeliness.2. Larger firms show significant association with timely reporting.3. Auditor quality doesn't moderate capital structure, company size influence. Keywords: Timeliness of financial reporting, Capital structure, Company size, Auditor quality, Indonesia Stock Exchange.
