Background: Skeletal muscle is a vital tissue in the human body to enable breathing, walking and performingÂ several sports activities. However, this muscle is persistently injured throughout every sports session. SomeÂ exercises demand a muscle injury occurrence in order to build a stronger muscle through an adaptationÂ process namely bodybuilding exercise. Importantly, every muscle injury should occur within a physiologicalÂ range which can be identified by several biomarkers as well as pain scale. The aim of this study was toidentify changes on the level of Creatine phosphokinase (CPK) and Visual analogue scale (VAS) between preÂ and post training sessions and the correlation between these two indicators.Methods: This was an observational analytical cross sectional comparison study which was conducted inÂ October 2012 and the subjects were adult untrained bodybuilders at the Jatinangor fitness center. The dataÂ was obtained by measuring serum CPK and marked VAS. The data were analyzed by t-test, Wilcoxonâs testÂ and Spearmanâs correlation.Results: Both CPK and VAS increased significantly by 296 U/L and 19.9 mm respectively. There was a strongÂ positive significant correlation between VAS and CPK (p=0.01, r = 0.711).Conclusion: The healthy untrained bodybuilders chosen in this study experienced a mild (<2000 U/L)Â muscle injury throughout the training sessions with general increased CPK levels and VAS measurement.Â [AMJ.2015;2(1):147â52]

Publisher : Althea Medical Journal

Background: The number of motor vehicles usage is increasing every year, along with the increasing prevalence of motor vehicle accidents, and mortality due to traffic accidents in 2010. The driver’s visual impairment is one factor that affects this phenomenon. In Indonesia there are regulations regarding the minimum requirements for visual acuity in order to get a driving license. However, data of driver’s visual acuity have not been obtained yet. This study aimed to assess the public transport (angkot) driver’s visual acuity. Thus, the regulation and evaluation of the minimum requirements for a driver’s visual acuity can be applied optimally. Methods: This study used the categorical descriptive method with cross sectional design to assess visual acuity for four-wheeled motor vehicle (angkot) drivers in Jatinangor using RAAB E chart and pinhole. The variable that was described in this study was the visual acuity of 4-wheeled motor vehicle drivers in Jatinangor.Results: Results showed 86.5% of drivers fulfilled the minimum requirements of visual acuity for driving. Meanwhile, the rest did not fulfill the minimum requirements of visual acuity for driving.Conclusions: Most of the public transport drivers have already fulfilled the minimum requirement of visual acuity for driving. However the minimum requirement of visual acuity for drivers has not been implemented optimally since there were drivers who have not performed an eye examination when taking and extending their driving license.
