Abstract

Background: Thrombocyte concentrate is one of the important blood component to improve patient's clinical condition. In order to provide thrombocyte, concentrate with good therapeutic effect, the preparation process and storage condition should be maintained properly. One attempt to maintain good quality of thrombocyte concentrates is by doing Pre-storage Leukoreduced Filtration (PLF) method during preparation of thrombocyte concentrates. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of PLF on sHLA-I level in thrombocyte concentrates stored for 1, 3 and 5 days. Methods: This is an experimental study with posttest only Control Group design, enrolling 34 thrombocyte concentrates and randomly assigned into PLF Group and Control Group. Results: It was obtained that PLF Group has lower mean sHLA-I level than Control Group stored for 1, 3 and 5 days and statistically significant. Mean sHLA-I level in PLF Group at day 1 is 2,75±0,82 µg/ml and Control Group is 3,66±0,87 µg/ml, which is statistically significant (p < 0,05). Mean sHLA-I level in PLF Group at day 3 is 3,07±0,75 µg/ml and Control Group is 4,05±1,29 µg/ml, which is statistically significant (p < 0,05). Mean sHLA-I level in PLF Group at day 5 is 3,81±0,97 µg/ml and Control Group is 5,61±3,26 µg/ml, which is statistically significant (p < 0,05). Conclusions: It can be concluded that PLF decrease sHLA-I level in thrombocyte concentrates stored for five days compared with Control Groups.

Abstract

Background: Addiction of alcoholic beverage by early pregnancy women results in fetal alcohol syndrome of her baby. This study aims to investigate fetal alcoholic syndrome due to binge alcoholic drinking by the early pregnant of wistar rat. Methods: This is an experimental study applying posttest only control group design. Wistar Rats were in preconditioning for pregnancy and divided into two groups, i.e. one group was fed with normal feeding and the other group was fed with normal feeding and 40% of ethanol. The off spring then were observed and divided into three groups, i.e. normal fetal, normal fetal from the mother fed with ethanol, and fetal alcoholic syndrome. Insulin like growth factor (IGF-1), aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), apoptosis index, pathology of their brain and heart were observed. The different of all these parameters were then compared by applying one way anova, and considered significant at p < 0.05. Results: In this study we found that there were fetals alcoholic syndrome (FAS) due to the mother of the Wistar Rat fed with ethanol during their pregnancy. There were also a significant different of IGF-1, ALDH, apoptosis index between these three groups (p < 0.05), i.e. normal baby, normal fed with ethanol, and FAS. IGF-1 for these three groups were 56.59±0.52 ng/ml, 55.17±2.41 ng/ml, and 36.64±4.86 ng/ml, respectively. ALDH for the groups were 21.41±2.38 ng/ml, 21.16±4.77 ng/ml, and 17.05±2.68 ng/ml, respectively. Their brain apoptosis indexes were 4.56±0.78, 4.58±1.17, and 7.86±1.31, respectively. Heart apoptosis indexes were found 2.81±1.18, 5.36±1.37, and 7.50±1.43, respectively. Conclusion: Binge alcohol drinking during pregnancy of Wistar Rat results in FAS and identified by decrease of IGF-1, ALDH and increase of brain apoptosis index and heart apoptosis index of the off spring.

Abstract

Background: Forest Kedondong (Spondias pinnata) traditionally known as “loloh cemcem” and commonly used as a chronic cough remedy. Previous research showed that methanol extract of Forest Kedondong leaves active against MDR strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The aim of this study were to determine the phytochemical constituent and anti tuberculosis activity of stem bark extract of this plant against MDR strain of M. tuberculosis. Method: Coarsely powder of Forest Kedondong stem bark was extracted successively with n-hexane, chloroform and 80% ethanol. Anti tuberculosis assay of chloroform and ethanol extract was conducted using proportion method with Lowenstein-Jensen medium within 3 different concentration of extract of 1, 10, and 100 mg/mL. Activity was evaluated by inhibition of extract against M. tuberculosis growth, which was calculated by mean reduction in number of colonies on extract containing medium compared to control. Results and Discussion: Phytochemical test showed that chloroform extract contains terpenoid and flavonoids. Ethanol extract contains terpenoid, polyphenols and flavonoids. These extracts were active against MDR strain of M. tuberculosis with 100% inhibition at concentration of 100 mg/mL. Chloroform extract has higher inhibition against M. tuberculosis growth than Ethanol extract. Conclusions: These extracts were potentially developed to an anti tuberculosis constituent from natural product.

Abstract

Background: Stroke is one of the root causes of brain disorders at the height of the productive age and ranks second cause of death after heart disease in most countries in the world. Fairly large-scale study conducted by ASNA (ASEAN Neurological Association) in 28 Hospitals in Indonesia. This study was conducted in patients with acute stroke who were treated in hospital (hospital-based study) and conducted a survey of factors - risk factors, treatment duration and mortality and morbidity. Method: This is a cross sectional study, with intracerebral hemorrhage Head CT scan examination then examined serum levels of plasma GFAP her at the time of patient entry from RSUP. H. Adam Malik Medan from March 2014 -May 2014. Results: In this research, we found the frequency of male patients as many (62.5%), while as many women (37.5%). Predominant age range in patients encountered in this study were 46-51 years old and are the dominant ethnic Batak tribe (43.8%). Conclusion: There were no significant differences between groups in serum GFAP levels with bleeding volume ? 30 cc compared to those with bleeding volume
