Abstract

Type II diabetes mellitus (DMT II) is a major health threat, and DM is known to be associated with sensorineural deafness. Age, duration of DM, hypertension and hypertriglycerides are believed to influence this process. This study aims to determine the relationship between type II DM and the incidence of sensorineural hearing loss at Bali Royal General Hospital. The study used a case control design which was carried out on patients admitted between July-September 2021 at Bali Royal General Hospital. The sampling technique employed in the DMT II group with sensorineural deafness was total random sampling, while for comparison, simple random sampling was used. The analyses were carried out by descriptive analysis, chi square test for bivariate data, and logistic regression test for multivariate analysis. The p value is said to be meaningful if <0.05. The whole process of data analysis in this study used SPSS.sav 25. The number of samples was 8 patients with an average age of 49.62 ± 8.45. The mean of RBS (Random Blood Sugar) sugar was 152.25±60.92 mg/dL, and FBS (Fasting Blood Sugar) was 87.87±14.09 mg/dL. Patients with low FBS values ​​and diabetes duration of <5 years had more normal hearing conditions in the right ear (60%), while patients with high FBS and diabetes duration of ≥5 years had more SNHL (66.7%). However, the two conditions did not show a statistically significant relationship (p>0.05). The results of multivariate analysis found that there was no significant relationship between FBS levels and age with hearing conditions in the left ear (p> 0.05). In this study, there was no significant relationship between FBS, duration of DM, pattern of drug consumption, age, and hypertension status of DM patients with the incidence of SNHL in the right and left ears. Keywords: Type II diabetes mellitus, sensorineural deafness, hearing loss

Abstract

Abstract Indonesia is experiencing a decreased cure rate of malaria caused by the species Plasmodium falciparum. Alternative medicine, in this case, uses marine biota, namely lollyfish (Holothuria atra), which has a lot of active compound content; the purpose uses the biota because many reports that there is a failure of malaria treatment therapy due to Artemisinin-based Combination Therapy (ACT) resistance. The purpose of this study was to find out the antimalarial activity of Holothuria atra extract with ethyl acetate solvent at dose 0.01; 0.1; 1; 10; and 100 Ug/ml against Plasmodium falciparum in vitro. Extract lollyfish using the maceration method. The lollyfish powder will be dissolved with ethyl acetate solvent for 24 hours. Antimalarial activity testing is measured through 4 parameters, namely the measurement of parasitemia rates, % parasite growth, % inhibitory rate, and IC50. Antimalarial activity with ethyl acetate solvent belongs to a very active category with an IC50 value of 1.52 µg/mL. These results can kill the P. falciparum parasite with a percentage that reaches 0%. A decrease in the percentage of growth occurs when the dose given is too low so that the parasite can grow and survive. The result of higher concentrations of extracts will have a higher percentage of resistance to the growth of parasites. The potential for antimalarial activity in lollyfish extract is influenced by the presence of active content such as alkaloids, flavonoids, catechins, and pyrogallol owned by marine biota animals. This study suggests that lollyfish (H. atra) can be developed as an alternative treatment for malaria. Keywords: Holothuria atra, antimalarial, Plasmodium falciparum, in vitro

Abstract

TBM members require muscle endurance to implement their tasks, particularly while performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), which requires chest, shoulder, and upper arm muscle endurance. Push up is a type of muscle endurance training for the chest, shoulders, and upper arms that do not require any particular equipment or skills. Therefore, the Push Up Test is required for TBM members, and the results suggest that 62% of 2020 TBM members' abilities are below average. The study was conducted on members of the Warmadewa University FKIK Medical Assistance Team to compare the Push Up workout regiments with the same concentric and eccentric phase tempo (P1) and a slower eccentric phase tempo (P2). The two methods are compared to determine which method is more effective in increasing Push Up Test ability. A total of 46 TBM members were involved in this study. The data was analyzed using the paired t-test to compare muscle endurance before and after the exercise was performed. The push up test used during the screening revealed a decrease in muscle endurance fitness, with of students having normal abilities the previous year, but only 16.4 percent in 2021. The exercise intervention 38% had a significant effect on the push up score, which increased by 4.7 points for male after the intervention, while the push up scores for women increased by 5.6 points (95% CI, 3.32 - 8.01). The results revealed that P2 intervention had a greater influence on changes in push-up scores than P1 intervention (mean change was 5.7 for males and 7.3 for females; mean change was 3.8 for males and 4.0 for females; respectfully). This difference, however, was not statistically significant. It can be concluded that push up training improved push up test ability significantly, whereas the comparison of training methods between P1 and P2 was not significantly different.

Abstract

Long-term COVID-19 could occur in COVID-19 patients, affecting the patient's quality of life, and becoming a problem for public health. However, information is rarely on factors associated with the occurrence of long COVID-19 cases. This study analyzed factors associated with long-term COVID-19. The study was an observational cross-sectional, conducted in August 2021. The data were collected through a Google form questionnaire distributed to COVID-19 survivors in Indonesian. They must be aged more than 17 years to meet the inclusion criteria, while those with incomplete data were excluded. The data were processed by using SPSS 21 with an ordinal regression test in which an alpha level was 5%. As many as 101 from 16 men (15.8%) and 85 women (84.2%) were obtained. Comorbid status (p-value = 0.001) and duration of treatment (p-value = 0.034 and 0.015) had a significant association with the occurrence of long-term COVID-19. Meanwhile, age, gender, occupation, type of care, and vaccination status were not likely associated with long-term COVID-19. COVID-19 patients with comorbidity and a long duration of treatment are more likely to experience long-term COVID-19. Keywords: COVID-19, long-term COVID-19, factor, public health

Abstract

Uterine Leiomyoma or fibroid is the most common gynecologic benign neoplasm which arising from monoclonal proliferation of smooth muscle cells in uterine wall. Some specific types of uterine leiomyoma, such ascellular leiomyoma, symplastic leiomyoma, mitotically active leiomyoma andmyxoid leiomyomahave different histomorphology from usual type leiomyoma. It also have wide variety of tumors size, but this study found that no correlation between type of leiomyoma and its size. Additional non-invasive therapy that predominantly developed in leiomyoma include many antagonist agents of estrogenic receptor. So, important to determine of estrogen receptor activity before that hormonal therapy prescription.Histopathology parameter that predict estrogen receptor activity in leiomyoma was not well understood. This study also try to correlate between specific histologic type of leiomyoma and estrogen receptor activity. This study was a retrospective crossectional study which analized by pearson chi-square test with p value < 0.05 and CI 95%. Result: There was significant correlation between specific histologic type of leiomyoma and estrogen receptor expression (p=0.007; p<0.05). Key Words: Leiomyoma, Estrogen Receptor

Abstract

Abstract Antibiotic resistance is closely related to the inappropriate use of antibiotics, namely the indication, dose, frequency, and duration of use. Permenkes No. 5 of 2014 states that acute pharyngitis is given antibiotic therapy if it meets the diagnostic criteria using the center criteria, but this criterion is difficult to apply because doctors take longer to diagnose. Previous research at the Klungkung I Primary Health Center used diagnosis utilizing a swab test. It was found that 100% of bacterial pharyngitis patients were negative. The strategy of delaying antibiotics for 3 days can prevent antibiotic resistance, but in therapy, without antibiotics, it is important to increase the effectiveness of therapy, it is deemed necessary by the researchers to conduct a study to analyze the factors that affect the recovery of patients with acute pharyngitis, which are mainly caused by viruses. Analyzing the factors that affect the recovery of viral pharyngitis patients. The design of the cross-sectional study was through observation of the medical record data of patients who came to the Klungkung Primary Health Center I for 3 months and got diagnostic facilities using the swab test. Patients who got a negative swab test were analyzed for the factors that influenced their recovery. Anti-inflammatory variables, rest, and paracetamol significantly affected the recovery of acute pharyngitis patients (p <0.05), and the importance index in CART analysis found that paracetamol was the most influential, followed by rest, administration of vitamins, and anti-inflammatory. Antibiotics, anti-allergies, and cough medicines do not affect the recovery of patients with acute pharyngitis viral. Paracetamol has the most effect on patient recovery, followed by rest and administration of vitamins, anti-inflammatory has very little effect on the recovery in patients of acute pharyngitis viral. Keywords: acute pharyngitis, cure, CART.

Abstract

Abstract Nigella sativa (N. sativa) has been used in traditional medicine, and several studies have been performed in the last decades to reveal its effects of it on different medical disorders such as diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and obesity. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of Nigella sativa extract in an alloxan-induced mice model. This research was a true experimental post-test-only control group design. Eight-weeks old male Mus musculus were treated with alloxan (150 mg/ kg) by a single intraperitoneal injection to induce diabetes mellitus. At three days of injection, N. sativa extract (150 and 300 mg/kg) was administered via gavage for two weeks. The result of this study showed that N. sativa seed extract had a significant (P<0.05) nephroprotective effect on the kidneys based on the degree of kidney damage in alloxan-induced mice. This effect may be due to Nigella sativa’s antioxidant properties. Keywords: Nigella sativa, histology kidney, oxidative stress

Abstract

Abstract Mesenteric ischemia is a rare etiology of abdominal pain caused by impaired blood flow to the mesenteric circulation. This condition has acute and chronic variations and is associated with high mortality and morbidity. Early diagnosis is needed to determine management and prevention efforts towards a worse prognosis. The main principles of management of mesenteric ischemia are the restoration of bowel perfusion and resection of the necrotic bowel. This review will discuss the basic materials, diagnosis, and patient management strategies based on the conditions and causes of mesenteric ischemia. Keywords: mesenteric ischemia, necrosis, thrombosis, embolism
