Abstract

Malaria is an infectious disease transmitted through mosquitoes and has become a health problem both in the world and Indonesia especially in Lampung. The population of the malaria vector is strongly influenced by the location of the breeding place. This study will examine the characteristics of breeding place of Anopheles sp as the malaria vector. This was an observational descriptive study conducted in the work area of Puskesmas Hanura Kabupaten Pesawaran. The physical characteristics has done by measuring temperature and water depth, the chemical characteristics by measuring pH and water salinity, and the biological characteristics by looking at organisms found at the sampling site. The breeding places are damaged boat, lagun, ditch, rice fields and abandoned ponds. The characteristics of the breeding palces are water temperature 29.5-32.4°C, water depth 10.1-28.6 cm, pH 5-6.6, salinity 0-9.3. Predators found in the breeding place are Aplocheilus panchax (tin head fish), Gambusia affinis (Cere Fish), Culex sp. (larvae stages), Aedes sp. (larvae stages), and water plants Ocsillatoria sp. (alga), Spirogyra (alga). Physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of Anopheles sp. breeding place in Puskesmas Hanura working area are optimum characteristics for Anopheles sp. breeding.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TBC) is becoming one of the highest causes of death in the world. Tuberculosis is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis that is transmitted via droplet originating from tuberculosis patients. It is estimated that one-third of people in the world have been infected by tuberculosis, but only 10-20% of people will show the symptoms. Symptoms that can arise in tuberculosis are such as bleeding cough, weight loss, night sweats, chest pain, shortness of breath and weakness. Meanwhile, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a retrovirus-famili because of its ability to convert the RNA genome into DNA. HIV transmission occurs due to the entry of this virus into the body through body fluids of people who are already infected by HIV. Both of these infectious diseases alike because both of them can cause a decrease in immune system activities in the body of the sufferer. Collaboration of both diseases is common and is a deadly combination because it interacts with each other in all aspects of the disease, ranging from pathogenesis, epidemiology, clinical manifestations, treatment and prevention. Tuberculosis is also a leading cause of death in HIV-positive patients. In 2016 in Indonesia, there are found 360,565 cases of TBC, with 14% of them are also known to suffer from HIV-positive. The results of the study suggest that there is a mutual relationship between the two diseases in causing a clinical symptoms through decreased activity of the body's immune system.

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a disease in humans which is transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito as a vector which causes many cases of death. In Indonesia, the number of cases of dengue fever deaths will be 705 cases in 2021. Alternative natural insecticides are needed to avoid potential resistance to chemical insecticides. Rhizophora apiculata stem bark contains active compounds, namely saponins, flavonoids, alkaloids, and tannins which are larvicidal. The purpose of this study was to determine the larvicidal effectiveness of Rhizophora apiculata stem bark extract. This study used a laboratory experimental research design with a post test only control group design pattern. Divided into 6 groups, namely negative control, 0.045%, 0.09%, 0.18%, 0.36%, and positive control. Each group contained 25 larvae in 20 ml of Rhizophora apiculata stem bark extract solution with 4 repetitions. The data analysis used was univariate data analysis to find which concentration caused the highest death of Aedes aegypti larvae. From the research results, it was found that the average mortality of larvae from 4 repetitions at concentrations of 0.045%, 0.09%, 0.18%, and 0.36% were 68%, 97%, 99%, and 100% respectively.

Abstract

Soil Transmitted Helminth is an infection that causes malnutrition, anemia, growth retardation. Transmission is through contact with eggs or larvae in the soil. Cases of STH infection in Indonesia are high in areas of poor sanitation, poor hygiene and lack of understanding of clean and healthy lifestyles. Therefore, this study aims to determine the contamination of STH eggs on soil in rural and urban areas. This research is a cross-sectional study with purposive sampling. The number of samples is 90 soil sample points in rural and urban areas and then the univariate and bivariate analysis tests are carried out using the pearson chi-square Test. The number of STH contamination in rural areas was 29 out of 90 samples with 26 samples of Ascaris lumbricoides, 2 samples of Hookworm, and 1 sample of Trichuris trichiura. STH egg contamination in urban areas was 22 out of 90 samples with details of 17 samples of Ascaris lumbricoides, 3 samples of Hookworm, and 2 samples of Trichuris trichiura. Based on the results of the pearson chi-square Test analysis, a p-value of 0.467 was obtained. There is no difference in contamination of STH eggs on soil in rural and urban areas.
