Abstract

Pneumonia remains one of the significant infectious diseases in society, especially in developing countries such as Indonesia, with its prevalence continuing to increase year after year. Pneumonia caused by bacteria requires antibiotic treatment, increasing antibiotic use and presenting a risk of antibiotic resistance. Therefore, this study evaluated the use of antibiotics in hospitalized pneumonia patients, with qualitative and quantitative approaches using the Gyssen and ATC / DDD methods. The articles taken as research samples involve a publication period from 2013 to 2023. The data included include the Gyssen parameter, DDD/100, and DDD/1000 patient days. The synthesis showed that ceftriaxone and meropenem antibiotics were the top choices, with values of 1547.735 DDD/100 bed days and 3011.2 DDD/1000 patient days, respectively. Ceftriaxone was documented in 21 journals, while in 8 of 37 journals, meropenem considered antibiotic use in hospitalized pneumonia patients. Evaluation of the quality of antibiotic use showed the highest level in category (0) at 93.7%, followed by (IVa) at 67.6%. Meanwhile, analysis of bacterial resistance to antibiotics showed that Klebsiella pneumonia was the most resistant bacteria, especially to antibiotics carbapenems, ertapenem, doripenem, cephalosporin generation 3, extended-spectrum cephalosporin, and piperacillin/tazobactam, with significant values 0.05%. These findings provide deep insight into patterns of antibiotic use in hospitalized pneumonia patients while identifying potential areas for improving the quality of antibiotic use and treating bacterial resistance. Thus, this study contributes to efforts to optimize pneumonia management and reduce the impact of antibiotic resistance in the community.

Abstract

Self-Nanoemulsifying Drug Delivery System (SNEDDS) is a nanoemulsion system that can be used to increase the bioavailability of drugs that are hardly soluble in water and have low bioavailability. Oleic acid, a saturated fatty acid that is found in many vegetable oils, is an oil that is often used for the oil phase in SNEDDS. Therefore, this review article aims to review, study, analyze and explore the optimum formula of SNEDDS that use oleic acid as the oil phase. The articles were searched via Google Schoolar, Science Direct, and Pubmed. The total number of articles is 464 articles. The total number articles that include exclusion criteria is 453 articles. The total article that use is 11 articles. SNEDDS, which uses oleic acid as the oil phase, produces droplet sizes of 19.75-190.03 nm with a polydispersity index of 0.278-0.532. Zeta potential value, only 2 articles have a zeta potential value above +/-30, that is mefenamic acid SNEDDS and furosemide SNEDDS. Overall, SNEDDS which uses oleic acid as the oil phase has a better dissolution and bioavailability profile compared to the commercial product or the pure drug. If solubility and bioavailability increase, it can increase the pharmacological activity of the drugs

Abstract

The use of lubricant in tablet compaction can reduce both intergranular and granule to die-wall friction that in turen improve granule flow properties and reduce adhesion of granule mass to the die wall. However, the concentration and method of adding lubricants into granule mass has also been known to influence the physical properties of tablets, such as hardness, friability, disintegration time and dissolution. This study aimed to apply 2-factor-2-level-factorial (22) design to determine the effect of lubricant concentration in granule mass (factor A) and the granule mixing time (factor B) on the physical properties of granules and tablets of starfruit leaves (Averrhoa bilimbi L.) ethanolic extract and to obtain the optimum setting of both factors that results in responses that satisfy most of the predefined criteria. The factorial design was set as follows: (l) = 2.5%, 5 minutes, a = 5%, 5 minutes, b = 2.5%, 15 minutes, and ab = 5%, 15 minutes. The lubricant used was a mixture of magnesium stearate and talc in a ratio of 1:9. Experimental design and optimization were carried out using Design Expert 13.0 software with granule flowability, angle of repose, and compressibility, as well as tablet weight uniformity (%RSD), hardness, friability, and disintegration time as responses. Optimum results were obtained with 2.5% lubricant and 5 minutes factor combination. The verification test to the optimum parameters showed that the granule flowability, angle of repose, tablet hardness and tablet friability are within the prediction interval range (PI 95%).

Abstract

Coughing is often considered a minor illness, but in reality it disrupts daily activities. In dealing with coughs, treatment can be done independently or known as self-medication. In Indonesia, the practice of self-medication tends to increase. However, improvement in self-medication practices is often not aligned with adequate knowledge. This research aims to determine the profile of self-medication in society, the level of self-medication knowledge, the level of self-medication behaviour, and analyze the relationship between knowledge and behaviour. Questionnaires that have been tested for validity and reliability on 30 respondents are used as instruments. The data collection method was carried out cross-sectionally using a purposive sampling technique in September-November 2023. Respondents in this study were community in one of the regions in East Java with the inclusion criteria. The total respondents in this study were 363 respondents. Univariate analysis was carried out on self-medication profile, level of knowledge, and level of behaviour. The relationship between level of knowledge and behaviour was analyzed using the Spearman Rank method. In this study, the average community knowledge score was 76.86% with a good level of knowledge (54.3%). In the behavioral variable, the average value is 77.39% with the good behaviour level category (59%). There is a relationship between the level of knowledge and cough self-medication behaviour in the community as evidenced by a sig. (2-tailed) 0.000. A positive correlation coefficient of 0.49 was obtained thus indicating that the strength of the relationship between knowledge level and behavior is moderate.

Abstract

Curcumin derivate with IUPAC name 1,5-bis(4’-hydroxy-3’-methoxyphenyl)-1,4-pentadien-3-on is also known as Gamavuton-0 (GVT-0) reported has an activity as anti-inflammation and anti-cancer. GVT-0 can be synthesized using vanillin and acetone as starting material by aldol condensation. Purification process of GVT-0 after synthesis usually was done using maceration. This method resulting un-pure GVT-0, therefore, another separation technique of Chromatotron was chosen. This research aims to investigate the effectiveness of Chromatotron towards the purity of GVT-0. The study was started by GVT-0 synthesis. The synthesis was using 4.4 mole of vanillin and 1 mole acetone as the raw material. Microwave irradiation was used as the energy source. Isolation of GVT-0 using hot water maceration. Further, the purification of GVT-0 was conducted using Chomatotron. First step of purification using Chomatotron was preparing best ratio between hexane and chloroform as solvent to remove vanillin. Further, the best combination of solvent was used to separate all the vanillin remaining in the bulk of GVT-0. Last step after all vanillin was removed, the GVT-0 remining in the silica was elucidated using chloroform. The purity was evaluated using Melting-point analysis and Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) with four different mobile phases. Based on the data of melting point and TLC, a pure GVT-0 was obtained. The Chomatotron may be recommended for purification of GVT-0, however this method consumes a lot of organic solvent that may need to be improved in the future with more environmentally process
