Abstract

Leptospirosis is a disease caused by a bacteria called Leptospira. Environmental risk factors for leptospirosis include biological, social, and physical (river or bodies of water, ditches, puddles, and the distance between the settlement area with garbage disposal area).This research aimed to determine the correlation between the physical environmental factors with the evidence of leptospirosis in Sukahaji Village, Babakan Ciparay District of Bandung City in 2017. The design of this research is a survey with cross-sectional approach. We used 100 population samples in this research. The Technique of obtaining data with observation sheet is using sheet checklist. We did univariate and multivariate data analysis using Chi square.The results showed that most of  the population experienced leptrospirosis, and most of the physical environment such as rivers or bodies of water, ditches, puddles, and the distance between settlement area with the garbage disposal area are the risk factors of leptospirosis.

Abstract

One of the efforts in population control of Aedes aegypti is by fogging, basil leaf is oneof natural insecticide that can be replaced with current chemical one that are commonlyused. Our aim is to measure effectiveness of basil leaf extract on Knockdown time ofAedes aegypti and effective concentration on spray usage. Twenty mosquitoes with sixdifferent intervention, each 5%, 10%, 25%, 50%, positive control, and negative control.All intervention repeated 4 times in every 5 minutes for about 1 hour. The results willbe statistically analysed using one-way ANOVA. Results: concentration of 5% and 10% have KT50 with Insecticide Score of 1 and 2 respectively without any Knockdownconcentration; concentration of 25% have KT50 with Insecticide Score of 3 and WeakKnockdown; concentration of 50% have KT50 with Insecticide Score of 5 and QuickKnockdown. Kruskall-Wallis test p-value=0,000 (p<0,05) with Spearman correlation of+0,87 or 87%. The most effective concentration on Knockdown time of Aedes aegyptiis 50%. In conclusion, Basil extract can be effecctifely used as natural and alternativeinsecticide for fogging.

Abstract

Total-Cholesterol (TC) to HDL-Cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio in athletes is well-known to be better than sedentary people. However, information about comparison of TC/HDL-C in different groups of cyclists based on cycling touring characteristics and anthropometry parameters is lacking. This study aimed to compare TC/HDL-C ratio between groups based on the type of tour in cyclists population. Eighty-eight participants were recruited in this cross-sectional study. Mean differences of parameters between groups was analyzed by One-Way Anova and independent t-test, whereas multivariate analyses was conducted by binary logistic-regression. P value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. TC/HDL-C ratio in all groups were less than 4.5. There is no differences of TC-levels (NC240K: 216.6±55.04, TdB140K: 208.1±27.13, TdB100K: 203.1±31.95; p=0.427). But there is significantly different level of HDL-C (NC240K: 68.9±19.09, TdB140K: 52.1±13.9, TdB100K: 53.6±12.45; p=0.0001) and TC/HDL-C ratio (NC240K: 3.3±1.12, TdB140K: 4.2±1.07, TdB100K: 4.0±1.06; p=0.007). Between TC/HDL ratio groups (≥4 or <4), there were differences of weight, BMI, waist-circumference, hip-circumference and type of tour (p<0.05). Finally, BMI and type of tour were the most influential factor. Long-distance cyclists have a synergistic effect of lipid profile and anthropometry measurements, and heavier cycling tour participant, that represent cycling training habits, tend to have lower TC/HDL ratio(< 4).

Abstract

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a kind of sleep disorders which is associated with cognitive impairment, either independently or by its strong association with metabolic syndrome. OSA affected attention and executive functions. Since the diagnosis of OSA had limitation, the assessment of OSA risk level by using STOP-BANG Questionnaire instrument in common population is important. This was a cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the effect of OSA risk level determined based on STOP-BANG Questionnaire score to attention and executive functions in 82 subjects. The demographic and clinical characteristics data obtained were age, gender, level of education, hypertension, body mass index (BMI), neck circumference, OSA risk level, and attention and executive functions.  Attention function was assessed by using Forward Digit Span and Trailmaking Test A (TMT-A) instruments, while executive function was assessed by using Backward Digit Span and Verbal Fluency Test instruments. The demographic and clinical characteristics data showed significant higher proportion of male gender, large neck circumference, and hypertension in high risk OSA group. The OSA risk level significantly impaired the executive function but did not impaired attention function.

Abstract

This study started from data of Riskesdas of the Ministry of Health which regards Special Region of Yogyakarta as a region with a good habit of defecating. However, according to a research conducted by the Environment Agency in Yogyakarta, all rivers in this region contain faecal colibacteria far above the threshold. This study aims to explain the factors that led to contamination of rivers by faecal colibacteria in Yogyakarta. The researcher conducted observation in the rivers in Yogyakarta and interviewed some people who lived near the rivers regarding their habit and knowledge about the rivers’ condition. This study concluded that the habit of defecating in rivers is rarely found in Yogyakarta and such habit will diminish naturally. However, there are some behaviors which give similar effects as defecating in rivers.  The society does not know that such behaviors could lead to the presence of faecal colibacteria. More importantly, although the rivers in Yogyakarta contain faecal colibacteria which UNICEF considers as harmful, the society does not confirm that such condition is harmful. This way, such unhealthy behavior of the society still exists.
