Abstract

Introduction: The concept of SBS as an occupational health problem is related to air pollution, inadequate ventilation, and indoor air quality in office buildings. Lighting in the RSUD Haji Building still does not meet general and local lighting standards. Complaints of eye fatigue are also felt by administrative staff in the outpatient room of the RSUD Haji Indonesia. This research aimed to examine how physical air quality and sick building syndrome give impact to officer productivity in the outpatient room of the RSUD Haji Indonesia. Methods: This kind of study used a cross-sectional design and was observational. Simple random sampling was utilized in the sampling process, and logistic and linear regression were used to analyze the data. Results and Discussion: Lighting in outpatient rooms that is 100% compliant with standards. The percentage of rooms without proper temperature norms was 21.42%. The rate of rooms with inadequate noise requirements was 17.86%. Spaces without 50% relative humidity norms. SBS symptoms: 10.3% of respondents said they always had itchy skin, and 27.6% said they frequently experienced extreme stress and exhaustion symptoms. Conclusion: There was no effect of temperature, lighting, or noise in the room regarding the sick building syndrome symptoms of officers in the outpatient room, except humidity. However, most workers felt SBS symptoms. Officer productivity was not impacted by the physical quality of the air or by sick building syndrome symptoms.

Abstract

Introduction: River water pollution has been a significant hazard to human health and is associated with severe health risks. This study evaluates water quality and heavy metal levels in the Klang River, analyzing their health risks through chemometric analysis. Methods: Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) was used to analyse the heavy metal contents in river water samples obtained from 9 sampling stations. Chemometric statistical techniques (principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA)) are employed to identify the sources of physicochemical properties and heavy metals. The human health risk was evaluated using statistical analysis, apart from hazard quotient (HQ), hazard index (HI), and carcinogenic risk (CR). Results and Discussion: Results showed that the physicochemical parameters were within acceptable limits. The concentration of heavy metals was found to follow a decreasing order of As > Ni below permissible levels, except at P9 and P8. PCA and HCA showed important connections among parameters, emphasizing that COD, NH3N, and TDS are key factors affecting Klang River water quality. Conclusion: The study assesses pollution risks in the Klang River, offering crucial insights for sustainable estuary management. It highlights significant changes in temperature, pH, TDS, BOD, DO, and NH3N levels, along with specific trends in heavy metal concentrations. The Health Risk Assessment indicates acceptable HQ and Target Cancer Risk values. However, the study's limited sample sites and focused timeframe might hinder understanding long-term patterns and regional differences. Extended data collection and additional information are necessary to improve water quality management and protect public health

Abstract

Introduction: A group of people in China were hospitalized with an initial diagnosis of pneumonia of unknown cause. The patients were linked to a wholesale wet seafood and animal market in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. The disease has spread to other provinces in China, Thailand, Japan, and South Korea in less than a month. SARS-CoV-2 was found to originate from bats. Therefore, this research aims to analyze SARS-CoV-2 mutation in bats in Malang Karst, Indonesia. Methods: Other bat body parts used as research samples include the brain, liver, kidneys, intestines, pancreas, fetus, blood, lungs, and ectoparasites. The samples were taken separately and placed in a container containing 10% PBF. For further analysis, we used RNA Extraction, Real-Time PCR, Sequencing, and CoV Gisaid mutation analysis software to analyze the sequencing data. Then, EMBL software will be used to analyze the phylogenetically. Results and Discussion: There was 1 sample that showed a positive result for Covid-19, namely the intestine of the Cynoptera brachyotis species. There were differences between SARS-CoV-2 in bats in Malang Karst in Indonesia compared to SARS-CoV from 2000 to 2019. The spike protein's receptor binding domain (RBD) is the most variable part of the coronavirus genome. Conclusion: From the research results, one positive sample was obtained using Real-Time PCR, and based on mutation analysis, mutations were found in SARS-CoV-2 against the SARS-CoV virus from 2000-2019. Further research is needed, especially regarding SARS-CoV-2 as a vaccine.

Abstract

Introduction: Lead, a heavy metal, has been proven to influence the ecosystem negatively. The use of lead in processing or as raw materials increases Pb exposure to humans from various sources, including waste or consumed products. This study aims to determine the most recent information regarding lead contamination sourced from the environment, at-risk populations, and the health impacts of this heavy metal contamination. Results and Discussion: This systematic review used a database sourced from Google Scholar. The keywords searched were "lead exposure, environment, or health" in articles published in 2020-2023. After article screening and exclusion, 26 research articles were eventually reviewed. Lead was detected in water, air, and soil, generally in various foods or products consumed by humans. Environmental factors were the most frequent source of contamination. The population at risk of lead exposure were children. Several studies have found that various health impacts were significantly associated with lead exposure from different environmental sources and lead concentrations in biomarkers. Conclusion: Pb contamination was increasingly widespread in the environment through various sources. Exposure to lead may cause diverse health problems.

Abstract

Introduction: The study investigated the molecular effects of human exposure to commonly used pesticides in Nigeria. Methods: Utilizing computational methods like clustering analysis, toxicokinetic predictions, molecular docking, and molecular dynamic (MD) simulation, various health impacts were identified. Results and Discussion: The results revealed significant gastrointestinal absorption, P-glycoprotein bypass, blood-brain barrier penetration, and cytochrome P450 inhibition for certain pesticide agents. Notably, oxathiapiprolin showed hepatotoxicity, propanil exhibited drug-induced liver injury (DILI), and 2,4-dichloro-phenoxyacetic acid demonstrated carcinogenicity. Respiratory toxicity was predicted for most pesticides, except propanil and N-(2,6-diethylphenyl) acetamide. Molecular targets were identified, such as bifenthrin targeting programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 and Atrazine targeting potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily H member 3. Binding affinities were computed, with oxathiapiprolin showing -6.526 kcal/mol with short transient receptor potential channel 7. Molecular dynamic simulations indicated significant binding energy changes over time. Atrazine's binding with potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily H member 3 exhibited a total binding energy ΔGbind of -39.410 kcal/mol and -49.135 kcal/mol at 0 ns and 100 ns, respectively. Oxathiapiprolin's binding with short transient receptor potential channel 7 showed ΔGbind of -53.481 kcal/mol and -44.122 kcal/mol at 0 ns and 100 ns. Conclusion: This study suggests potential hepatotoxicity and carcinogenicity of certain pesticides, emphasizing the need for environmental monitoring and stringent regulations to safeguard public health.

Abstract

Introduction: Indoor air quality significantly influences human health because humans can do work and rest indoors. Particulate Matter (PM2.5) is ranked 5th as the leading risk factor for death in the world and causes more than 103 million disabilities. PM2.5 concentrations are the highest, so a monitoring system is needed that can monitor air conditions in real-time and continuously. Methods: Research was conducted using the Research and Development (R&D) type. The scope of the research method is making prototypes and fieldtesting tools. Determination of field test locations is based on indicators such as (i) inadequate ventilation in the respondent's house so that air circulation does not run well; (ii) The family room and bedroom are close to the kitchen and waste incinerator, which has the potential to produce PM2.5 pollutants. Data analysis used descriptive analysis to get a picture of indoor air quality. Results and Discussion: The designed monitoring system was calibrated with the Air Quality Monitor 8 in 1 PM2.5 tool. The average PM2.5 concentration measurement for 24 hours showed that all test points exceeded the standard limit. Room 3 (family room) had the highest PM2.5 concentration, while room 4 (bedroom) had the lowest PM2.5 concentration. Conclusion: The area of air ventilation, mining activities, mining product transportation activities, the intensity of watering roadsides and home yards, and cooking activities influence PM2.5 concentrations.

Abstract

Introduction: Senile pruritus etiology is uncertain. However, well as intrinsic factors, one of the extrinsic risk factors causing pruritus is house dust mites (HDM) as. Aim of this study was to analyze the association between house dust mite density and the pruritus level among elderly residents. Methods: This is an observational study with cross-sectional design. The 34 elderly who met the criteria were included in this study. The pruritus level was obtained using questionnaire as to duration, degree, direction, disability, distribution (5D) itch scale based on NRS (numerical rating scale) categories divided into 4 categories (no, low, moderate, and severe itch). House dust mite density was checked using flotation method and the results categorized into low, moderate, and high density. The dust sample was checked for the species by microscope. The preventive activity to prevent the pruritus were also analyzed. The relationship between itch scale, preventive activity with HDM density was analyzed using STATA 17. Results and Discussion: A total of 34 elderly was included. Elderly were dominated with women (67.6%), moderate itch scale (38.2%) and moderate HDM density (58.8%). Most of the correlation between itch scale based NRS and preventive activity with HDM density p-value was not significant. But the elderly’s’ habit to clean the mattress was significantly correlated with HDM density (p=0.00). The Dermatophagoides sp were the dominant mites found in elderly’s’ room. Conclusion: Itch scale in elderly were not related with HDM density, but correlated with the habit to clean the mattress.

Abstract

Introduction: Houseflies serve as vectors of diseases in animals and humans. Chemical pesticides are a practical way of eliminating insects; however, resistance to insecticides has been reported. This study aims to evaluate the adulticidal efficacy of cypermethrin, tetramethrin, and piperonyl butoxide in housefly. Methods: Adult flies were cultured within net enclosures using completely randomized design with four replications each treatment. Treatment A was water and served as the negative control, treatment B was cypermethrin + tetramethrin + piperonyl butoxide 32% EC and served as the positive control, and treatment C was cypermethrin + tetramethrin + piperonyl butoxide 48% EC. The number of dead houseflies were counted 15, 30, 60, and 120 minutes post- application of treatments. The results were analyzed through analysis of variance (P≤0.05) followed by Tukey’s HSD (honestly significant difference). Results and Discussion: The values for the cumulative mean and percentage of killed houseflies were all significantly different from each other, with treatment C showing the highest values, followed by treatment B, then treatment A. The maximum adulticidal effect of treatment C was apparent within 15 minutes post-application, while the maximum adulticidal effect of treatment B was observed within 30 minutes after application. Conclusion: Results suggest that treatment C was a more effective adulticidal than other groups. Using cypermethrin + tetramethrin + piperonyl butoxide 48% EC can be the solution to the problem, but it should be noted that future resistance may occur. Increased concentrations may also imply environmental, human, and animal health hazards.

Abstract

Introduction: Leptospirosis is a health problem in tropical countries where rats serve as the reservoir of Leptospira contamination. Previous investigations implementing the Bi-index to assess rat density in Leptospirosis endemic areas are highly limited. This study aimed to use the Bi-index in monitoring rat density and the associated factors in urban Leptospirosis endemic areas. Methods: Four endemic areas in Semarang City were selected as the study sites based on Leptospirosis data in Puskesmas Gayamsari. Live traps were positioned in one case house and 39-49 neighboring houses in a 100m radius, on three consecutive days. Trapped rats were collected for species identification, morphometrics evaluation, and calculation of Bi-index and rat indices, while environmental parameters were obtained through observation. Results and Discussion: 67.1% of participants were women, private employees, and aged 17-55, while trap success ranged from 2.5-26.5% with the Bi, diversity, dominance, and evenness indices of 0.02-0.32, 0.94-1.09, 0.36-0.44, and 0.79-0.96, respectively. Trapped species included Rattus norvegicus, Rattus tanezumi, and Mus musculus with proportions of 61.3%, 34.1%, and 4.7%, respectively. The presence of rats was associated with closeness to the river containing stagnant water, frequent flooding, water entering houses during floods, open trash bins, and rubbish bins around the houses. The high rat density, dominant species, and correlated environmental conditions are strategic targets in controlling Leptospirosis in Semarang City. Conclusion: The rat density (dominated by R. norvegicus) in Semarang City was correlated with water drainage and garbage management, hence further investigation was recommended to determine Leptospira bacterial infection in rodents.
