<![CDATA[ABSTRACT One of the goals of the Millennium Development Goals (MDG's) is to lower infant and child mortality rates. In 2006 according to the World Health Organization (WHO) infant mortality rate in the world was 49 per1000 births and the most cause of death was Low Birth Weight Babies. In Sidoarjo Hospital the birth rate of BBLR in the last 3 months is still high ranging from 30-38 babies. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of nesting and lighting in physiological function for LBW babies in RSUD Sidoarjo. This type of research is a quasy experiment with a nonrandomized pretest and posttest with control group design with purposive sampling in the Infant Room and NICU of Sidoarjo Hospital as many as 61 (40 control groups and 21 intervention groups). Measuring instruments used are luxmeters, heart rate meters, oximeters, thermometers and observation sheets. The results showed there was a difference in value between pre and post test heart rate and oxygen saturation in the intervention group with a value of p< 0.05 and there was a difference between the control group and the intervention group in the respiration rate counts pre and post intervention, the post heart rate intervention, and the post temperature intervention with a value of p<0.05. The physiological condition of the baby is related to temperature, respiration and relatively stable heart rate and the use of nesting and light protection affects the physiological stability of the heart rate and oxygen saturation]]>

<![CDATA[Breast milk is a perfect food both in quality and quantity. Many factor saffect exclusive breast feeding, one of which is the lack of maximum milk production. Post partum mothers must have the enthusiasm to give exclusive breast feeding to their babies. With proper breast feeding management, maximum results will be obtained. Thepurpose of this study was to determine the difference in the amount of breast milk production between the BOM method (Breast Care, Oxytocin Massage, Mermait Technique) and Breast Care for post partum mothers in the Work Area of the Takeran Health Center. The type of researchis Quasi Experiment with Post Test Only Control Group Design. The population is all pregnant womenin the work area of the Takeran Health Center whose expected delivery day is in March-April 2022 as many as 32 pregnant women. All affordable populations were sampled. The independent variable is BOM and Breast Care and the dependent variable is breast milk production. Data analysis used the Mann Whitney statistical testwitha significance level of p <0.05. In the experimental group using the BOM method, there were 13 respondents (81.3%) whose breast milk production was smooth and 3 respondents (18.7%) whose milk production was not, while in the control group using the Breast Care method 14 respondents ( 87.5%)whose milk production is not smooth and 2 respondents (12.5%)whose milk production is smooth. The results of the Mann Whitney test obtained a significance value of 0.000 < = 0.05. The conclusion of the study is that there is a difference in the amount of milk production between the BOM method and breastcare. The BOM method can be used as an alternative to non-pharmacological therapy to increase breast milk production in post partum mothers so that it can increase the successs of exclusive breast feeding.]]>

<![CDATA[Lower respiratory tract infections are one of the major public health concerns responsible for morbidity and mortality in populace. Improved surveillance of the causative agents as well as identification of risk factors might enable targeted intervention. Therefore this study was conducted in order to establish the incidence and risk factors of lower respiratory tract infection in Kebbi State. Three hundred and fifty sputum samples were collected from consented patients with the symptoms of LRTI attending six different hospitals in Kebbi State. The samples were all screened for bacterial pathogens using standard microbiological techniques. The bacterial isolates were identified using conventional biochemical tests and then confirmed using commercial biochemical test kit microbact 24E (Oxoid UK) according to manufacturerer’s instruction. Staphylococcus aureus was the most predominant bacteria isolated in this location followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae with an estimated percentage occurrence of 31.1% and 22.2% respectively. Other bacteria isolated include Klebsiella oxytoca (13.9%), Escherichia coli (11.1%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (5.6%), Aeromonas hydrophila (5.6%), Acinetobacter baumannii (4.6%), B. pseudomallei (2.8%) and Proteus spp (2.8%) in order of ranking. It was found out that, the young adults and the elderly were most at risk of a severe respiratory condition. The result also shows that LRTI were more common in males than in females. A significant number (32%) of patients who are exposed to either agricultural or industrial chemicals have positive bacterial growth. The present study found that prior antibiotic treatment was also a significant risk factor for LRTIs. In conclusion, it was found out that, Staphylococcus aureus is the most predominant bacteria isolated. Exposure to smoke from firewood and chemicals from both agricultural or industrial chemicals as well as indiscriminate use of antibiotics were the risk factors for LRTIs in this location.]]>

<![CDATA[Malnutrition in toddlers is known to cause disturbances for growth and development. The impact on poor mental development and school achievement and disorders. Conventional tools are often used to predict this risk. On the other hand, the classification of nutritional disorders using the Composite Index of Anthropometric Failure (CIAF) can predict this risk better. The CIAF method is an anthropometric index that combines the three indices of weight/age, height/age, and weight/height to determine the nutritional status of toddlers. Based on Riskesdas data in 2018, the prevalence of stunting under five in Indonesia reaches 30.8% or around 7 million children under five suffer from stunting. This situation is greater than the maximum stunting prevalence limit set by WHO, which is 20%. The prevalence of stunting under five in the Province of the Bangka Belitung Islands is 23.37% where the highest cases occur in West Bangka Regency. However, West Bangka Regency in particular and the Province of the Bangka Belitung Islands in general have not classified malnutrition that occurs based on CIAF. This research is a descriptive analytic study with a cross sectional design which was conducted for 10 (ten) months in West Bangka Regency. A sample of 155 toddlers was taken by using multistage random sampling technique. The instruments used include a questionnaire about the characteristics, characteristics of parents, and family economy. The measurement tools used to assess nutritional status are in the form of calibrated digital weight and height scales. The results show that 48.4% or almost half of the respondents experience growth and development failure. Most failure to thrive was in the stunting and underweight category (21.3%) and the least was in the wasting only category (1.3%). Type, age of the child, mother's age, mother's education and household income are not variables that affect the nutritional status of children. Further research is needed with a wider scope of variables so that it can be found what are the factors that influence the occurrence of malnutrition.]]>

<![CDATA[The most prevalent solid tumor in men worldwide is prostate cancer. The need for biomarkers to guide management choices is critical given the frequency of prostate cancer and its relatively lengthy clinical course. Based on a patient's unique risk stratification, which considers pathologic characteristics from a prostate biopsy, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level, imaging, and other patient factors, decisions about localized prostate cancer treatment options, such as active surveillance, surgical excision, or targeted radiation, are made. An attractive method for thorough cancer analysis is to use "liquid biopsies" made up of analytes from a peripheral blood draw. These methods can be used as prognostic and predictive biomarkers as well as ready tissue sources for molecular profiling during the course of a disease and are straightforward, safe, and simple to repeat. Researchers conduct an examination of articles that are in accordance with the issue to be studied. Articles used in literature review are obtained through the database of international journal providers through PubMed, we investigated eleven clinical studies and discussed what happened in these clinical studies and the extent of the effectiveness of liquid biopsy in prostatic cancer, in one study there was relative impact of common circulating tumor DNA alterations on patient response to the most widely used large, randomize advanced prostate cancer. Other studies reported that ZNF660 methylation analysis can potentially help to stratify low-/intermediate-grade PCs into indolent vs. more aggressive subtypes. Another study found that tumor-derived biomarkers in platelets of CRPC patients enabled prediction of the outcome after abiraterone therapy with higher accuracy than baseline serum PSA or PSA response. One study reported that de novo positive CTC count after androgen deprivation therapy is probably due to a passive mechanism associated with the destruction of the tumor. In this review, we suggest that liquid biopsy could be used as biomarker for prostatic cancer, Further studies are needed to enhance liquid biopsy efficacy.]]>
