Abstract

Beta-thalassemia major (BTM) is difficult to treat chronic disease, causing physical and psychological burdens for the patient. Several studies have confirmed a decrease in physical activity and depression in thalassemia patients, but limited studies examine the relationship between these two conditions. This study aims to analyze the relationship between depression and physical activity in BTM patients in Bandung city. It was analytical observational research with a cross-sectional design. Data were collected during September–December 2018 by interviewing 65 patients selected by simple random sampling from 300 thalassemia patients registered at the Association of Parents with Thalassemia Indonesia/Perhimpunan Orangtua Penderita Thalassemia Indonesia (POPTI) Bandung city. The instruments used were the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ) to measure physical activity and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) to assess depressive symptoms. Data were analyzed by chi-square test using SPSS for Windows ver. 23.0. The results showed that most BTM patients in Bandung city were depressed (52%) and had low physical activity levels (65%). Furthermore, there was a statistically significant relationship between depression and physical activity in thalassemia patients in Bandung city (p=0.04, p<0.05). Therefore, it can be concluded that BTM patients in Bandung city with depression have lower physical activity. DEPRESI BERDAMPAK PADA AKTIVITAS FISIK YANG RENDAH PADA PASIEN TALASEMIA BETA MAYORTalasemia beta mayor merupakan penyakit kronis yang sulit disembuhkan sehingga menimbulkan beban fisik dan psikologis bagi pasien. Beberapa penelitian telah mengonfirmasi penurunan aktivitas fisik dan depresi pada pasien talasemia, namun studi yang mengkaji hubungan antara kedua kondisi ini masih terbatas jumlahnya. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis hubungan antara kondisi depresi dan tingkat aktivitas fisik pada penderita talasemia beta mayor di Kota Bandung. Desain penelitian bersifat observasional analitik dengan rancangan potong lintang. Pengambilan data dilakukan selama September–Desember 2018 dengan mewawancarai 65 pasien yang dipilih secara simple random sampling dari 300 pasien talasemia yang terdaftar di Perhimpunan Orangtua Penderita Thalassemia Indonesia (POPTI) Kota Bandung. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ) untuk mengukur aktivitas fisik dan Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) untuk menilai gejala depresi. Data dianalisis dengan uji chi-square menggunakan SPSS for Windows ver. 23.0. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan mayoritas penderita talasemia beta mayor di Kota Bandung mengalami depresi (52%) dan memiliki tingkat aktivitas fisik rendah (65%). Selanjutnya, terdapat hubungan bermakna secara statistik antara depresi dan aktivitas fisik pada penderita talasemia di Kota Bandung (p=0,04; p<0,05). Oleh karena itu, dapat disimpulkan bahwa penderita talasemia beta mayor di Kota Bandung yang mengalami depresi memiliki aktivitas fisik yang lebih rendah.

Abstract

Fear and anxiety due to severe labor pains could also lead to prolonged labor. The efforts made to accelerate the second stage labor process are by providing emotional support with the support of a labor camera. The mother is allowed to observe the development state of her baby's head through video on a tablet or laptop screen. Furthermore, the mother's emotional level becomes more provoked and motivated to strain the labor process faster. This study aims to determine the effect of the labor cameras on the second state duration in primiparous. The design of this study was a posttest-only control group design experiment with a total sample of 30 primiparous of the second stage at independent midwife practice in Bengkulu city in November–December 2020. Each group consisted of 15 for treatment (with labor cameras) and 15 for control (without labor cameras)—the assessment of the labor duration by counting the labor time in seconds during the second state. The statistical results using the t test and chi-square test analysis showed that the intervention group's labor duration (1,393.3 seconds) was shorter than the control group's (2,340.6 seconds). The mean difference in the delivery time was 947.3 seconds or 15.7 minutes faster in the intervention group than in the control group. In conclusion, using a labor camera on the labor duration of the second stage in primiparous mothers is an effect of using a labor camera. PENGARUH KAMERA PERSALINAN TERHADAP DURASI PERSALINAN KALA II PADA PRIMIPARARasa takut dan cemas akibat nyeri persalinan yang berat juga dapat menyebabkan partus lama.

Abstract

Cigarette residue toxins can accumulate in the body, including the pancreas, which potentially reduces pancreas function. In addition, the active compounds in cigarettes are reporting to interfere with an elevation of reactive oxygen species, leading to disruption of pancreatic microstructures. Furthermore, pancreatic cell dysfunction is responsible for developing diabetes mellitus disease. The objective of this study was to analyze the effect of thirdhand smoke exposure on mice pancreatic microstructure image. It was an in vivo laboratory experimental study with a completely randomized design at the Medical Biology Laboratory of the Universitas Islam Bandung from November 2020–June 2021. The subjects were 20 adult male mice aged 8–10 weeks, weighing 25–30 grams, in good health condition, and randomly divided into two groups (control group and treatment group exposed to thirdhand cigarette smoke for four weeks). After the completion of the exposure period, pancreatic cells isolation was performing. The parameters observed in this study were the number and diameter islet of Langerhans. Data analysis used the independent t test parametric (α=5%). The results showed that the number and diameter islet of Langerhans in the treated group were significantly lower than the control group (p<0.05). The average number in the control group was 9.40±3.20, while in the treatment group was 4.90±2.74 (28% smaller). The average diameter of control was 225.96±50.15 mm, while treatment was 162±49.68 mm (50% lower). In conclusion, thirdhand smoke exposure alters the pancreas microstructure. The toxic compounds on thirdhand cigarette smoke are involving in generating an elevation of free radical levels, depletion of antioxidants, and alteration of signal transduction resulted in acceleration of apoptosis rate of the islet of Langerhans, especially pancreatic β-cells. PENGARUH PAPARAN ASAP ROKOK TERSIER PADA GAMBARAN MIKROSTRUKTUR PANKREAS MENCITToksik residu rokok dapat terakumulasi pada tubuh, termasuk pankeas sehingga dapat menurunkan fungsi pankreas. Selain itu, senyawa aktif dalam rokok dilaporkan meningkatkan radikal bebas yang menyebabkan kerusakan mikrostruktur pankreas. Selanjutnya, disfungsi sel pankreas meningkatkan risiko diabetes melitus. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis pengaruh asap rokok tersier terhadap gambaran mikrostruktur pankreas mencit. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian eksperimental laboratorium in vivo dengan rancangan acak lengkap di Laboratorium Biologi Medik Universitas Islam Bandung periode November 2020–Juni 2021. Subjek penelitian adalah 20 mencit jantan dewasa berumur 8–10 minggu, bobot 25–30 gram, kondisi sehat, dan dibagi secara acak menjadi dua kelompok (kelompok kontrol dan kelompok perlakuan yang mendapat paparan asap rokok tersier selama empat minggu). Setelah periode pemberian paparan selesai, dilakukan isolasi sel pankreas. Parameter yang diamati dalam penelitian ini adalah jumlah dan diameter pulau Langerhans (islet of Langerhans). Analisis data menggunakan parametrik independent t test (α=5%). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa jumlah dan diameter pulau Langerhans pada kelompok perlakuan lebih rendah dibanding dengan kelompok kontrol (p<0,05). Jumlah rerata pada kelompok kontrol adalah 9,40±3,20, sedangkan pada kelompok perlakuan 4,90±2,74 (lebih rendah 28%). Diameter rerata pada kelompok kontrol adalah 225,96±50,19 mm dan kelompok perlakuan 162,89±49.68 mm (lebih rendah 50%). Simpulan, paparan asap rokok tersier dapat memengaruhi gambaran mikrostruktur pankreas. Senyawa toksik pada asap rokok tersier diduga terlibat dalam peningkatan kadar radikal bebas, penurunan kadar antioksidan, dan perubahan transduksi sinyal yang mengakibatkan peningkatan laju apoptosis pulau Langerhans, terutama sel β pankreas.

Abstract

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a new type of respiratory infection that first emerged in December 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei, China. COVID-19 is caused by a new variant of virus called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Examining the chest x-rays is one technique to diagnose COVID-19. This study aims to determine the association of chest x-rays features in suspected COVID-19 patients with the length of stay at Al-Ihsan Regional General Hospital West Java Province and Banten Regional General Hospital in June–November 2020. The subject was 29 COVID-19 people were confirmed, whereas 31 people were not. The statistical analysis used Pearson correlation and multi-linear regression. This study found that tuberculosis had a strong association with length of stay (p value=0.048, association=0.4), and also there is a robust association between bilateral pneumonia and duration of stay (p value=0.028, association=0.873). A linear regression model discovery of TB chest x-rays on the subject raises the treatment by 0.5867 days. In addition, the discovery of bilateral pneumonia increases the length of stay of treatment by 0.32218 days more than the discovery of unilateral pneumonia. In general, tuberculosis, bacterial pneumonia, viral pneumonia, and bilateral pneumonia together affected the outcome of length of stay of patients with suspected COVID-19. ASOSIASI GAMBARAN RONTGEN TORAKS DENGAN LAMA RAWAT PADA PASIEN SUSPEK COVID-19Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) adalah jenis infeksi saluran pernapasan baru yang pertama kali mewabah pada Desember 2019 di Wuhan, Hubei, Cina.

Abstract

The success of breast cancer therapy is still not optimal and the side effects caused by breast cancer therapy. The use of standard drug combinations with herbs is often used as co-chemotherapy and is believed to increase the drug's effectiveness. However, research on the antagonistic effect of the drug combination is still minimal. This study examines the anticancer effect of soursop leaf aquoxes extract and the combined impact of doxorubicin on MCF7 and T47D breast cancer cells. This research is pure in vitro experimental study of MCF7 and T47D breast cancer culture cells at the Parasitology Laboratory of the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Gadjah Mada in August 2018. Toxicity tests were carried out using the method of tetrazolium 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl) 2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) to calculate cell viability. The IC50 value was obtained by analyzing probit regression calculation using SPSS software. The synergism of this compound with doxorubicin was determined based on the value of the Combination Index (CI) using a combination test with series 1/2 IC50, 3/8 IC50, 1/4 IC50, and 1/8 IC50 and the data was analyzed using Compusyn 1.0 software. In this study, the effect of soursop leaf preparations will be tested on T47D and MCF7 breast cancer cell cultures and assess the impacts of co-chemotherapy of soursop leaf aqueous extract with doxorubicin. This study showed that IC50 soursop leaf aqueous extract in T47D breast cancer culture was 84 μg/mL and in MCF7 166.5 μg/mL. In contrast, the combined test showed that soursop leaf aqueous extract was antagonistic with doxorubicin in both T47D and MCF7 cancer cell cultures. EFEK ANTAGONIS KOMBINASI EXTRAK AIR DAUN SIRSAK DAN DOKSORUBISIN PADA KULTUR SEL KANKER MCF7 AND T47DKeberhasilan terapi kanker payudara saat ini masih belum optimal dan terdapat efek samping yang ditimbulkan dari terapi kanker payudara tersebut. Penggunaan kombinasi obat standar dengan herbal sering digunakan sebagai ko-kemoterapi dan diyakini dapat meningkatkan efektivitas obat, tetapi penelitian mengenai efek antagonis kombinasi obat masih sangat terbatas. Penelitian ini mengkaji efek antikanker ekstrak air daun sirsak dan kombinasinya dengan doksorubisin pada sel kanker payudara MCF7 dan T47D.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to restrictions on visits to the dentist except for emergency cases. It causes the examination and treatment of dental and oral diseases to be hampered, which is feared to impact a person's overall health condition negatively. Therefore, each individual is expected to maintain optimal dental and oral health to prevent it. Until now, based on the results of interviews with the head of the Baitus Syukur orphanage, it was stated that the level of awareness of foster children on the importance of maintaining dental and oral health was low, and they did not yet have a special examination program related to dental and oral health. This study aims to analyze whether there is an increase in children's knowledge in the Baitus Syukur orphanage after counseling on oral health. This type of research is a quasi-experiment with pre and post-test methods in March–April 2021. This study uses a total population of 24 children in the Baitus Syukur orphanage.
