Abstract

Background: Consuming cariogenic foods can cause calcium demineralization which is characterized by the appearance of dental caries. One effort on the prevention of dental caries is by consuming Mackerel fish oil that contains omega-3 fatty acids, omega-6 fatty acids, and vitamins that are beneficial for the body. Purpose: The study aimed to determine the effectiveness of omega-3 Mackerel fish oil on the density of tooth enamel in white rat (Rattus norvegicus). Method: This study applied an experimental research method with randomized posttest only control group design. Samples were comprised of 20 rats taken from 6 pregnant female rats which later divided into two groups: a treatment group administered orally with omega-3 Mackerel oil as much as 1ml / 200 mg BB and an aquadest control group. The treatment was administered during pregnancy period until the eruption of the teeth. Rats were euthanized to extract the tooth and enamel density was observed using micro-CT. The data were then analyzed with Levene’s homogeneity test and were preceded to independent T-test. Result: The average enamel density of the treatment group was 1155.18340 while the control group was 175.91640. Based on independent t test between the two groups, a significant difference in tooth enamel density of Rattus Noevegicus was obtained (p <0.05). Conclusion: The administration of omega-3 Mackerel fish oil may increase the density of tooth enamel in White Rat (Rattus norvegicus).

Abstract

Background: Asthma is chronic airway inflammatory disorder where mast cells, eosinophils, and T lymphocytes play important role.The symptoms include wheezing, recurrent cough, shortness of breath, and suppressed chest. The age prevalence of asthma children is quite high and increases annually. Asthma affects boys twice the rate of the asthma as girl. Asthmatic patients need local immunity and antibodies so infections that occur in the oral cavity as a result of inhalation medication use can be avoided. The antibody of the oral defense system is secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA). Objective: To explain the difference in salivary sIgA levels in male asthmatic children and female asthmatic children.Methods: The study was conducted on 21 subjects of asthmatic children consisted of 11 male and 10 female with the age range 9-11 years. Saliva sampling was taken in RSKP Respira Bantul, then it was taken to Laboratory of Molecular Biology FK UGM for ELISA test. Saliva was taken by Spitting method for 1.5 mL and done in the morning from 8-11 hours. Subjects were not allowed to eat 1 hour prior to salivary taking. Anamnesis and clinical examinationwere performed to see the condition of oral cavity, social status, and nutritional status. Saliva measurementusing Anti-human sIgA ELISA kit (Elebscience). Data were analyzed using Independent T test. Results:The mean of sIgA level in males was 0.18 × 10 ± 0.06 and females was 0.15 × 10 ± 0.03. Based on the results of the Independent T test, it was found that the p value =0.283 (p> 0.05). Conclusion: There is no difference in sIgA levels between male and female patients.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Background: Smoking is well known as a habit that negatively impact both smokers and non-smokers but inhaling cigarette smoke or passive smokers. Nicotin compounds of cigarette and cigarette smoke are one of genotoxic compounds that will be nitrosated and form nitrosamines compound that may cause the damage of DNA. DNA damage which is caused by genotoxic compound will be manifested as micronucleus, a second nucleus smaller than the original nucleus. Purpose: This study aims to identify whether the number of micronucleus in active smokers was higher than passive smokers. Method: This study was observational research with cross-sectional approach with primary data, which was oral buccal mucosa swab of active and passive smokers. The total sample is 30 for each group. Results: The results of this study showed average 1,61. Mann Whitney± 1,81 and 14,47±number of active and passive smokers’ buccal micronucleus were 19,60  test results showed there was significant difference of number micronucleus between active and passive smokers (p=0,000).Conclusion: Based on this study it can be concluded the number of buccal micronucleus on active smokers was higher than passive smokers ABSTRAK Latar belakang: Merokok merupakan salah satu kebiasaan yang dapat memberikan dampak negatif baik bagi penghisapnya maupun orang yang tidak merokok, tetapi menghirup asap rokok, atau biasa dikenal dengan perokok pasif. Kandungan nikotin pada rokok dan asap rokok merupakan salah satu senyawa genotoksik yang akan mengalami nitrosasi menjadi senyawa nitrosamin yang dapat menyebabkan kerusakan DNA. Kerusakan DNA akibat paparan genotoksik dapat bermanifestasi sebagai mikronukleus, yaitu inti sel kedua yang berukuran lebih kecil dari inti sel sejati. Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apakah rata-rata jumlah mikronukleus pada perokok aktif lebih tinggi dibanding perokok pasif. Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian observasional dengan pendekatan cross-sectional yang menggunakan data primer yaitu preparat swab mukosa bukal dari kelompok perokok aktif dan pasif. Jumlah sampel masing-masing kelompok adalah 30 orang. Hasil: Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan rata-rata jumlah mikronukleus mukosa bukal pada perokok aktif 1,61. Uji statistik Mann Whitney menunjukkan perbedaan yang± 1,81 dan 14,47 ±dan pasif adalah 19,60 signifikan antara perokok aktif dan pasif (p=0,000) .Kesimpulan: Berdasarkan penelitian yang dilakukan dapat diambil kesimpulan bahwa rata-rata jumlah mikronukleus mukosa bukal pada perokok aktif lebih tinggi dibanding perokok pasif
