Abstract

Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem that negatively affects children's linear growth due to prolonged inadequate nutritional intake. This condition is an indicator of suboptimal child growth and development. Several factors contribute to the occurrence of stunting, including low birth weight (LBW), diarrheal infections, inadequate nutritional intake, incomplete immunization, low socioeconomic status, and parental education and knowledge levels. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between maternal education and knowledge levels and the incidence of stunting among children under five years of age in Medan Marelan District. This study employed an observational analytical method with a cross-sectional design. A total of 47 respondents were selected using consecutive sampling. The results showed that 29 children (93.5%) out of 31 respondents with poor knowledge experienced stunting. Meanwhile, among 13 respondents with moderate knowledge, 7 children (53.8%) experienced stunting, whereas no cases of stunting were observed among respondents with good knowledge (3 respondents). Statistical analysis using Fisher's exact test as an alternative to the chi-square test revealed a significant association between maternal knowledge and stunting, with a significance value (p = 0.001). Conversely, maternal educational level showed no significant association with stunting (p = 0.192). These findings indicate that maternal knowledge is significantly associated with stunting among children under five years of age, whereas maternal educational level does not demonstrate a statistically significant relationship. Therefore, improving maternal awareness and knowledge regarding nutrition and child health may serve as an effective strategy to reduce the prevalence of stunting.

Abstract

Dyslipidemia is a lipid metabolism disorder characterized by elevated plasma lipid levels and is one of the major risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Simvastatin, a commonly prescribed statin for the management of dyslipidemia, is associated with adverse effects on muscles and the skeletal system. Beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) and black sugarcane bagasse (Saccharum officinarum L.) extracts contain flavonoids and terpenoids, which are known to have cholesterol-lowering properties. This study aimed to compare the effects of beetroot extract and black sugarcane bagasse extract on increasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels in Wistar rats fed a high-fat diet. The study employed a post-test-only control group design involving 24 male Wistar rats divided into six treatment groups for one month. Total cholesterol levels were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), followed by the least significant difference (LSD) post hoc test. Following treatment, the mean HDL levels were 33.5 in the normal group receiving a standard diet, 32.5 in the negative control group (K−) receiving quail egg yolk, 37.25 in P1 (beetroot extract at 500 mg/kg body weight), 38.25 in P2 (black sugarcane bagasse extract at 250 mg/kg body weight), 35.75 in P3 (black sugarcane bagasse extract at 500 mg/kg body weight), and 38.5 in the positive control group (K+) receiving simvastatin at 10 mg/kg body weight. The ANOVA results revealed a statistically significant difference among the groups (p = 0.023). Post hoc analysis showed no statistically significant differences between the normal group and P1 or P3; K− and P3; P1 and P2, P3, or K+; P2 and P3 or K+; and P3 and K+. However, statistically significant differences were observed between the normal group and P2 or K+, as well as between K− and P1, P2, or K+. In conclusion, beetroot extract and black sugarcane bagasse extract at doses of 250 mg/kg and 500 mg/kg body weight demonstrated comparable effectiveness in increasing HDL levels in Wistar rats.

Abstract

Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease caused by the Leptospira bacterium; it is common in tropical regions, with an increased risk during the rainy season and during floods. Kampung Baru Neighborhood, Block 16, Medan Maimun Subdistrict, Medan City, is an area at risk for leptospirosis infection because its geographical features include a basin-like (cauldron-shaped) topography, making it prone to flooding during rainfall. Good knowledge can prevent the disease; conversely, people with poor knowledge can lead to wider disease transmission and an increase in morbidity and mortality rates. Methods: This study is a quantitative study using a one-group pre-test and post-test design and was conducted in Kampung Baru Neighborhood, Block 16, Medan Maimun Subdistrict, Medan City. The sampling technique used consecutive sampling with 79 respondents. Data were collected through questionnaires assessing the level of knowledge and attitudes regarding leptospirosis prevention. Results: The results showed that prior to the health education session, the majority of respondents had a good level of knowledge (24.1%) and a positive attitude (36.7%), which increased to a good level of knowledge (54.4%) and a positive attitude (60.8%) after the session. The Wilcoxon test revealed a significant difference in the community’s knowledge and attitudes before and after the health education session (P-value 0.000), and the chi-square test found an association between the community’s knowledge and attitudes regarding leptospirosis prevention (P-value 0.006). Conclusion: Community health education programs can serve as an effective intervention to improve awareness and attitudes regarding leptospirosis prevention, particularly in high-risk areas.

Abstract

Introduction: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is kidney damage characterized by structural and functional abnormalities of the kidneys that last for more than three months. Patients undergo hemodialysis 2 to 3 times per week, with each session lasting 4 to 5 hours. This process causes various psychological problems such as tension, anxiety, stress, and depression, which vary from person to person. In addition, malnutrition is common among patients with chronic kidney disease. Stress levels in patients with chronic kidney disease are a significant issue and can be influenced by various factors during hemodialysis. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the duration of hemodialysis and cognitive function, nutritional status, and stress levels in patients with chronic kidney disease at RSU Haji Medan. Methods: This study employed a descriptive-analytical research method with a cross-sectional design. Data collection took place in December 2024 at RSU Haji Medan. Sampling was conducted using consecutive sampling, with a sample size of 38 participants. Results: There was an association between the duration of hemodialysis and cognitive function in patients with chronic kidney disease at RSU Haji Medan (p=0.001). There was an association between the duration of hemodialysis and nutritional status in patients with chronic kidney disease at RSU Haji Medan (p=0.000). There was an association between the duration of hemodialysis and stress levels in patients with chronic kidney disease at RSU Haji Medan (p=0.001). Conclusion: There is an association between the duration of hemodialysis and cognitive function, nutritional status, and stress in patients with chronic kidney disease at RSU Haji Medan.

Abstract

Oxidative stress resulting from the accumulation of free radicals is one of the primary drivers of degenerative diseases. This narrative review aims to evaluate and compare the efficacy of n-hexane and ethyl acetate solvents in partitioning antioxidant compounds from various plant species based on their Inhibition Concentration 50% (IC50) values determined by the in vitro DPPH assay. Descriptive statistical analysis of 15 included articles revealed that the ethyl acetate fraction exhibited significantly superior free radical scavenging potential compared to the n-hexane fraction. The ethyl acetate fraction achieved an overall mean IC50 of 114.25 ug/mL (moderate category), whereas the n-hexane fraction showed a mean IC50 of 176.58 ug/mL (weak category). The superiority of ethyl acetate was predominantly distributed across roots (2.55 ug/mL), fruits (145.26 ug/mL), leaves (163.40 ug/mL), and stem bark (168.24 ug/mL) due to its selective extraction of polyphenols and flavonoids. Conversely, n-hexane performed better only in stems (0.1527 ug/mL) and flowers (31.52 ug/mL), mediated by non-polar lipophilic constituents. In conclusion, fractionation solvent efficacy heavily depends on solvent polarity and organ-specific metabolite distribution.
