Abstract

Background: Migraine is a primary headache, usually described as pain attacks lasting 4 - 72 hours, unilateral, throbbing, with moderate to severe pain intensity that can be exacerbated by activity, and can be accompanied by nausea and vomiting, photophobia and phonophobia. Migraine can interfere with patient activities, so that it can reduce productivity and result in an economic burden to the family and reduce the patient's quality of life. To handle it, pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies can be used. Acupuncture therapy is one of the non-pharmacological therapeutic options that can be used in migraines. Purpose: This article review collects and analyzes journals related to the effect of acupuncture therapy on migraines. The journal search method was carried out electronically from December to April 2021 using several databases such as Pubmed, Sagepub and Google Schoolar with the keywords: acupuncture in cases of migraine, acupuncture for migraine, and acupuncture point for migraine. Review: The journal searches discovered that acupuncture therapy had an effect in reducing pain intensity in migraine cases with the most widely used method that was the manual acupuncture method. However, the most influential method was the combination method of manual acupuncture, herbal acupuncture, and nutritional therapy with the hyperactivity of Yang liver as the frequently occurring syndrome. The frequently used points were the acupuncture points of Fengchi-GB20, Hegu-LI4, Taichong-LR3, Baihui-DU20, Zusanli-ST36, Sanyinjiao-SP6, and Taiyang-EX-HN5.Conclusion: Based on the journal analyses, the combination method of manual acupuncture, herbal acupuncture, and nutritional therapy can reduce pain intensity in migraine cases

Abstract

Background: Typhoid fever is caused by Salmonella typhi bacterial infection which spreads via the faecal-oral route and has epidemic potential. Salmonella typhi is a Gram-negative bacterium in the Enterobacteriaceae family. Currently, the use of natural ingredients can be an alternative treatment for typhoid fever, one of which is the mangosteen stem skin (Garcinia mangostana L.). Purpose: To determine the antibacterial activity of mangosteen stem skin fraction against Salmonella typhi ATCC 13311. Method:The maceration method was selected using methanol solvent and fractionation by ECC using ethyl acetate and n-hexane as solvents. This study used five treatments (fraction with a concentration of 20%, 40%, 80%, chloramphenicol 30µg as a positive control, and DMSO as a negative control) which tested their antibacterial activity against Salmonella typhi ATCC 13311 by disc diffusion. Result: The results showed that the ethyl acetate fraction of mangosteen stem skin had the greatest average inhibition zone, that is 13.86 ± 0.72 mm compared to the n-hexane fraction of mangosteen stem skin with an inhibition zone of 10.43 ± 0.73 mm. The data obtained were then analyzed with One-way ANOVA. Conclusion: The results obtained were p=0.000 (sig <0.05), indicating that there was a significant difference between the ethyl acetate fraction and the n-hexane fraction with 20%, 60%, and 80% concentrations with positive control

Abstract

Background: The use of MRI as a non-invasive diagnostic radiological examination modality is painless. However, patients may experience claustrophobia and anxiety. Sensory intervention is a method of providing sensory stimulation to an individual, which is expected to reduce the anxiety. Purpose: To determine the effect of the sensory intervention on the anxiety level of patients using an intervention scent by inhalation and intervention sound based on heart rate and MRI-AQ in patients with MRI lumbal examination. Method: 24 samples were divided into three groups: intervention scent, combination intervention scent-sound, and control, with eight samples each. Intervention scent is given using lavender essential oil as aromatherapy, drop three drops on the mask, then put the mask on for 5 minutes before the examination until the examination is completed. Intervention sound is given by playing music (nature-sound) during the examination. Result: Sensory intervention, specifically the use of combination intervention scent-sound, significantly reduces anxiety in patients during MRI lumbal examination significantly p = 0.004 (p<0.05). Conclusion: The use of a combination between lavender and nature-sound as media for sensory intervention has a positive effect on reducing anxiety during MRI lumbal examination based on heart rate. Due to the easy administration of this aromatherapy and the minimal risk for this treatment, it is recommended that it is applied to reduce anxiety during MRI.

Abstract

Background: The description of Degenerative Disc Disease in MRI lumbar FSE sequence T2WI is seen as a decrease in signal intensity. Patients with cases of Degenerative Disc Disease experience severe low back pain and cannot lie supine for a long time, while MRI is very sensitive to movement. GRAPPA is a parallel imaging technique that can produce images with a fast scan time but is followed by a decreased Signal to Noise Ratio SNR value. This technique needs to be followed by setting other parameters to produce an optimal image, namely by applying Magnetization Transfer Contrast (MTC). Purpose: To compare the quality of image results on lumbar MRI examination of the sagittal T2 qTSE sequence in the case of Degenerative Disc Disease with and without MTC activation. Method: This research was conducted at the dr. Soedono Madiun from August to September 2020. A sample of 16 patients who met the inclusion criteria was taken during the study. The GRAPPA and GRAPPA+MTC technique imagery results on each sample were assessed for the image quality quantitatively based on the SNR and CNR values. Result: Based on the SNR value, the GRAPPA technique and MTC activation have a higher mean than the GRAPPA technique alone. Likewise, with the CNR value, the GRAPPA technique and MTC activation have a higher average than the GRAPPA technique alone. Conclusion: The GRAPPA technique and MTC activation can be applied in Lumbar MRI examination with cases of Degenerative Disc Disease, especially in uncooperative patients.
