Abstract

Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) announced on March 11, 2020 that the disease outbreak caused by the COVID-19 coronavirus is a global pandemic. Therefore those educational institutions ranging from preschool to tertiary levels are closed for a while. Lecture activities are carried out remotely through Online applications that support lecture activities. Educators and parents are confused about accompanying their children to study at home, while students are confused or stressed by online learning methods and extensive learning with many tasks, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. This stress can cause adverse effects, such as high blood pressure, dizziness, sadness, attention, insomnia and other sleep abnormality, hypersensitivity, depression, etc. In some cases, stress can cause a variety of discomfort. Purposes: to find out the relationship between stress and sleep disorders in the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: The test conducted in this study is the Spearman test and quantitative type with analytic design and cross-sectional approach. The measuring instruments used were the DASS 42 questionnaire (Depression Anxiety Stress Scales 42) and the PSQI questionnaire. Results: respondents in this study were 60 respondents. The largest distribution among the stress variables was moderate stress level (40%), while the largest type of the two levels of sleep disorder is bad level (80%), and the results of the correlation analysis on the stress variable with sleep disorders obtained P=0.000 and the result of the correlation coefficient r=0.720. Conclusion: Based on the results of the Spearman test on the relationship between stress and sleep disorders, the P value was 0.000 (P<0.05) indicating that there was a relationship between sleep disorders and stress, while the r value was 0.720 or positive correlation, meaning that the higher the stress level, the higher the sleep disturbance, vice versa.

Abstract

Background: Labour and birth are physiological and normal events. The process is considered to be normal if it takes 37-42 weeks without any complications. Non-pharmacological methods to speed up the progress of labour include birthing ball exercises. The Birthing ball exercise is a technique to help the progress of labour that can be used during the first stage of labour. Until now, birthing balls are not widely known and not common, even though birthing balls are very effective in accelerating the birth process. The advantage of using the birthing ball is that it increases blood flow to the uterus, placenta and baby, and provides comfort for the knees and ankles. Purposes: The purpose of this study was to determine the average length of the first stage of labour in primigravida using a birthing ball and those not using a birthing ball and the effect of the birthing ball on the duration of the first stage of labour in primigravida. Method: This study uses a quasi-experimental method with a Randomized Two-Group design, Post-test only. This study was held at Utama Barokah Clinic, Bandung from June to July 2021. Result: The research sample was 30 respondents, primigravida during the first stage of labour with data analysis using the Mann Whitney test, and the p value <0.05 was obtained. Conclusion: There was a difference in the average length of the first stage of labour in primigravida using a birthing ball and those not using a birthing ball.

Abstract

The use of drugs is one of the most common causes of liver injury, because the liver is the main organ that metabolizes drugs. Little is currently done if there is a liver injury due to the hepatotoxic side effects of a drug. Herbal plants have active natural compounds that have pharmacological effects so they are widely used as alternative treatments. Sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum) is one of the most cultivated plants in Asia. Studies on the use of Ocimum basilicum in medicine have been carried out, one of which is the hepatoprotector effect. Studies indicate that Ocimum basilicum is rich in high antioxidant content (flavonoids, saponins, tannins, sterols, triterpenes, and rosmaniric acid) capable of providing hepatoprotector effects by helping the regeneration process of hepatocyte cells that are damaged by hepatotoxic agents and significantly decreasing liver damage biomarkers. The purpose of this review is to explain the potential of Ocimum basilicum as a hepatoprotective agent for liver injury associated with drugs. The conclusion of this review is Ocimum basilicum has high potential in its utilization as a hepatoprotector against liver injury mainly related to the consumption of drugs that have hepatotoxic effects.

Abstract

Background: Physical exercise aims to improve or maintain physical fitness. However, excessive physical exercise may cause increase of oxidative stress which leads to cellular injury, including in the proximal tubules of kidney. This research aims to find out the effect of single- and repeated- excessive swimming exercise to the kidney histopathology of male wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus). Methods: This research was an experimental study with complete random and post test only control group design. Twenty seven male wistar rats were divided into three treatment groups: control group, single- excessive swimming exercise group (45 minutes for one day), and repeated- excessive swimming exercise group (45 minutes/day for seven days). In the end of the treatment, the kidney of the rats were taken to be analyzed by using hematoxylin-eosin stain. The mean of proximal tubules injury of kidneys were counted by two observers using blinded method. Data were analyzed by using one way anova test. Result: The analysis showed there was a significant difference in the mean percentage of proximal tubules injury between control group and single swimming group as well as the repeated swimming group (Anova p=0,000), also there was significant difference between the treatment groups (p=0,020). The highest average of proximal tubules injury was in the single swimming group. Conclusion: Single- and repeated- excessive swimming exercise causes the proximal tubules injury of kidney.

Abstract

Background: Dyslipidemia is a condition where there is an abnormal lipid profile in the blood. Modern patterns and lifestyles such as consuming fast food cause excessive fat consumption which can increase the possibility of contracting blood vessel and heart disease. High levels of High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol can protect the body against heart disease and stroke, but not many drugs can increase HDL cholesterol levels. Olive oil is an oil that contains 77% Mono Unsaturated Fatty Acid (MUFA) which can reduce LDL cholesterol and increase HDL cholesterol. Objective: To determine the effect of olive oil (Extra Virgine Olive Oil-EVOO) and moderate intensity exercise on high density lipoprotein (HDL) levels in male Wistar strain (Rattus novergicus L) rats fed a high-fat diet. Method: a true experimental research design with a pretest and posttest design with a control group (Pretest and Posttest with Control Group) with simple randomization. Results: There was an increase in HDL levels in the control group (42.50 to 44.50 mg / dl), the olive oil treatment group was (50.83 to 53.33) mg / dL, the moderate intensity exercise treatment group (46.67 to 52 , 00 mg / dl), and the moderate-intensity exercise and olive oil treatment groups (47.50 to 58.67 mg / dl). Conclusion: Extra Virgine Olive Oil, moderate intensity exercise, and Extra Virgine Olive Oil with moderate intensity exercise influence the increase of HDL levels in the blood of male Wistar strain rats fed a high-fatty diet.

Abstract

Background: The age of 6-24 months old is a transitional period from breast milk to solid food. It is a critical period where children could easily get malnutrition and infection. The stunting prevalence in Kanigoro Village has surpassed the healthy limit (>20%) and as such, WHO categorized it as a public health nutrition problem. This study figured out the determinant factors of the implementation of complimentary food for breast milk on 6-24 months old stunted children. Methods: This study collected the 5 (five) respondents via purposive sampling methods. The criteria used were the respondents: (1) being 6-24 months old, (2) having the height-for-age z-score value < -2 SD, (3) living in the operational area of the Public Health Center of Saptosari Gunungkidul, and (4) committing to a consensual agreement to be the subjects of the study by submitting a legal informed consent letters. The data of the study were gathered via in-depth interview. The results were then compared to International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) responsive feeding indicators. Results: All of the respondents failed to do the responsive feeding properly and thoroughly. They failed to spoon feed the children, or to help the children eat by themselves, to be patient and to persuade their children to eat, to provide food in safe environment, to make feeding time as also learning time, and to care for the children. The response feeding predisposition factors are the limited time and the respondents’ perception to their children. The enabling factors are the availability and accessibility of resources. The empowering factors are the motivation from family members. Conclusion: It is recommended to involve the results of this study in basic policies formulations of many public health centers. It is expected to help children get better food intake and to optimize their growth.

Abstract

Background: taeniasis is a zoonotic disease caused by Taenia spp. Human taeniasis caused by Taenia solium can be acquired after consumption of raw insufficiently cooked infected pork meat. Pigs are intermediate host for T.solium. Pigs acquired this infection by eating human feces that contained T.solium eggs. Pigs infected with T.solium can be transmitted to humans. Purposes: identification of T.solium in pig is important because it is indicator of T.solium transmission. Microscopic examination of T.solium eggs is considered less effective and efficient so that many other methods are developed for T.solium detection such as molecular and immunology. Method: This method used specific primer which can detect the Tso31 gene in T.solium. Tso31 gene is one of the most promising antigens to differentiate T.solium from T.saginata. Pig feces samples were taken by random sampling technique from 7 pig farms in Denpasar. Result: from the 30 samples, we found one sample that which gave a single amplification product of 234 bp. This indicates that the pig farms in Denpasar have been infected with T.solium. Conclusion: it is necessary to do meat inspection properly in the market as well as health education about the dangers and impacts of T.solium infection in the community.
