Abstract

Tuberculosis become crucial diseases in the world. The disease can spread rapidly since it spreads through the air. The transmission through coughing and sneezing from droplet TB Patients. Containing Mycobacterium tuberculosis can be exposed to anyone who is around the patient. The aim of this research is to analyze the factors that affect the anti-tuberculosis drug resistance in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Labuang Baji Hospital Makassar. The research design is cross sectional approach. This study is conducted in June–July 2017 with a total sample of 60 respondents. Based on the data analysis, it is found that there were 34 respondents (56.7%) from 15–34 years old group and 26 respondents (43.3%) from 35–54 years old group. There were 35 female respondents (58.3%) and 25 male respondent(41.7%), is respondents with positive VCT test result and 45 respondensts (74.0%) with negatif VCT test, 54 respondents (90,0%) who have treatment history previously, 45 respondents (78.3%) have history with TB contact, 45 respondents (75.6%) who had good knowledge. 51 respondents (95%) with anti tuberculosis drug resistance. The result of statistical test using Chi-Square test is showed that there was a significant correlation between treatment history and anti tuberculosis drug resistance with p = 0.024 < α = 0.05. But, there was no relationship between sex and knowledge with anti tuberculosis drug resistance with p value 0.56 and 0.566 (p value > α = 0.05). It is recommended to health worker to give health education for patient and their family, so they can do their treatment until the patients are cured. It can prevent the patient to be anti tuberculosis drug resistance patient.

Abstract

Onychomycosis is the most common nail disease and contributes to 50% of all cause of onychodystropy. Onychomycosis cases due to Cryptoccus laurentii and Trychophyton spp. are quite rare. The most common cause of onychomycosis reported in Indonesia is Candida sp. Risk factors for onychomycosis include moisture, occlusion, nail trauma, decreased immunity, slow nail growth, wide nail surface, and genetic factors. Old age, cancer, psoriasis, dermatophyte infection at other sites is also a risk factor. A 54 year-old woman, with brittle nails and cracked palms since 6 months before came to outpatient clinic. She is a farmer and work in the rice fields without gloves daily; she also rarely wash her hands after work. Dermatologic examination of all right and left finger nail is revealed yellow, white, and some blackish discoloration, subungual hyperkeratotic, onycholysis, and onychodystrophy. In the right and left palm, revealed multiple erythematous and yellow-white hyperkeratotic plaques, with fissures and rough scales. From nail clippings, a 20% KOH examination revealed long branching hyphae, periodic Acid-Schiff (PAS) staining revealed spores, and fungal culture revealed growth of Criptococcus laurentii and Trichophyton spp. colonies. We gave itraconazole pulse dose: 2 x 200 mg tablet orally per day for a week every month. Other treatment was using 20% urea cream. Follow up at 8 weeks after therapy is showed clinical and mycologic improvement. The incidence of onychomycosis due to Cryptoccus laurentii and Trychophyton spp. is still rare. Thepredisposing factor of infection in these case is suspected due to old age and her habitual contact with the paddy fields without gloves and rarely wash her hand after work.

Abstract

It has been successfully found new herbal mosquito coils called “Morizena” made from Passiflora foetida leaf extract (40%), Chrysantemum cinerariaefolium flowers seed extract (40%), essential oils of  leaves-stems of Cymbopogon nardus (20%). The herbal mosquito coils are more effective to kill Aedes aegypti compared to commercial synthetic mosquito coils made from Transfluthrin. Treatment of exposure to herbal mosquito coils “Morizena” on Aedes aegypti for 8 hours/day with concentration 500 ppm (P1), 1000 ppm (P2), 2000 ppm (P3), 3000 ppm (P4), 4000 ppm (P5) and treatment of exposure to synthetic mosquito coils Transfluthrin 2500 ppm (K1) as a positive control, and without treatment of exposure to mosquito coils (K0) as a negative control. Experimental animals used were adult Ae. aegypti mosquito with 25 mosquitoes in each treatment. Experimental design used is one-way Anova test with linear regression to calculate its LC50 and LC90. The results of test to herbal mosquito coils “Morizena” given for 8 hours/day obtained mortality of Ae. aegypti by 92% to a concentration of 3000 ppm (P4) and 100% to a concentration of 4000 ppm (P5) and 100% for test to synthetic mosquito coils transfluthrin 2500 ppm (K1). Ae. aegypti LC50 and LC90 value for treatment of exposure to herbal mosquito coils “Morizena” are 999 ppm and 2977 ppm. Treatment of herbal mosquito coils “Morizena” with graded doses up to 4000 ppm and synthetic mosquito coils Transfluthrin 2500 ppm causing an increase in the enzyme acetylcholinesterase activity of Ae. aegypti. The conclusion is based on the Ae. aegypti  LC90 value is 2977 ppm, which means the effective dose of herbal mosquito coils “Morizena” to kill Ae. aegypti is 2977 ppm.

Abstract

Soil-Transmitted Helminth (STH) has infected more than one billion people worldwide. Waste collectors are at risk for STH infection because their work mostly in contact with soil and waste. Eosinophilia is a sign of human immune response to STH infection in addition to increased IgE and cytokine production. This cross sectional study aims to examine the association between STH infection and eosinophil levels among waste collectors in Banda Aceh. The study sample were 60 waste collectors working for the Sanitation department of Banda Aceh. Examination of stool samples using Kato-Katz technique revealed the prevalence of STH infection among waste collectors was 23.3% (14/60), consisting of T.trichiura infection (21.7%) and mixed infection (1.6%). There were no single infections of A. lumbricoides nor the hookworm infection was found. Blood tests to count eosinophil showed the prevalence of eosinophilia at 21.7%. There was no significant correlation between the intensity of STH infection and eosinophil levels (p value = 1.00). This study does not recommend the use of eosinophilia to indicate STH infection.

Abstract

Escherichia coli (E. coli) can be isolated from the environment both inside and outside the hospes body. There were 89 serotypes in which showed 21% resistance to various antibiotics, such as enterotoxigenic E.coli. Alternative efforts are needed to overcome this, one of them through the use of medicinal plants, such as meniran (Phyllanthus niruri Linn). Meniran plant is an immunomodulator that serves to repair the immune system of the body. The aim of research is the research was done through several stages: isolation and identification of enterotoxigenic E. coli from several broiler farms in East Java using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method, E. coli resistance test against some antibiotics, making meniran extract and activation test against enterotoxigenic E. coli n The study was divided into five treatments: T0+ (group of chickens were infected by enterotoxigenic E. coli T0- (control group, not infected), T1 (infected by enteroxigenic E. coli + 20% meniran extract), T2 (infected by enterotoxigenic E. coli + 25% extract meniran), T3 (infected by enterotoxigenic E. coli + 30% extract meniran). Data were analyzed by ANOVA (Analysis of Variance). The results show that all of E. coli DNA isolates which tested by the PCR method show positive reactions at 600 bp. The next stage, the enterotoxigenic E. coli are resistant to some antibiotics, such as amoxicillin, ampicillin, erythromycin, cephalosporins, tetracycline, cloxacillin and gentamicin. Furthermore, the 30% Phyllanthus niruri Linn extract is effective as an antibacterial for antibiotic resistance enterotoxigenic E. coli. next necessary to write that: The 30% meniran extract is potential for kill of enterotoxigenic E. coli
