In the future, the need for the caregiver will increase. Only few studies about the expectations of the elderly towards the sociodemographics status of the caregiver found. Unfulfilled expectations of the elderly towards their caregivers may cause both health and non-health issues. The purpose of this study was to explore the elderly expectations of the caregiver’s sociodemographic preferences. A qualitative study was carried out to 7 elderly aged 64–77 years old from July to August 2018 in Bandung city. These elderly selected from 7 integrated care posts (pos pembinaan terpadu/posbindu) that met the inclusion criteria: aged 60 years old and above; male or female; capable of communicating adeptly, and no dementia by undergoing the mini-mental state examination (MMSE). A one-on-one interview was conducted at the residence of the elderly using an interview guide consisted of several opened questions related to the caregiver’s sociodemographic preferences. A content analysis was carried out. This study discovered that the elderly preferred their family members or relatives whom they can trust to become their caregivers (their children and grandchildren). Most of these elderly also preferred daughters who live with them and has a decent income. If the family members could not become their caregiver then their neighbor or a community volunteer/cadre, they knew well, and trust to be their caregiver. It concluded that the elderly prefer their daughters who live with them and has a decent income to be their caregivers. EKSPEKTASI USIA LANJUT TERHADAP STATUS SOSIODEMOGRAFI CAREGIVER: SUATU PENDEKATAN KUALITATIFPrevalensi penyakit kronis dan disablilitas akan meningkat dengan pertambahan usia. Hal ini berdampak pada kebutuhan terhadap caregiver akan meningkat pula. Penelitian tentang ekspektasi usia lanjut terhadap status sosiodemografi caregiver belum banyak dilakukan. Ekspektasi usia lanjut merupakan faktor penting karena bila ekspektasi tersebut tidak terpenuhi maka akan berisiko timbul masalah kesehatan dan nonkesehatan. Tujuan penelitian ini mengeksplorasi ekspektasi usia lanjut terhadap status sosiodemografi caregiver. Studi kualitatif dilakukan terhadap 7 orang usia lanjut berusia 64–77 tahun pada Juli hingga Agustus 2018 di Kota Bandung. Para usia lanjut berasal dari 7 pos pembinaan terpadu (posbindu) yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi, yaitu usia ≥60 tahun, laki-laki atau perempuan, dapat berkomunikasi dengan baik, dan tidak demensia dengan dilakukan mini-mental state examination (MMSE). Wawancara dilakukan di kediaman informan masing-masing menggunakan panduan wawancara terkait pertanyaan dengan preferensi sosiodemografi caregiver. Analisis konten dilakukan.

Replacing animal milk into soymilk as raw material is one approach. Yogurt has a good effect on human health. Probiotic and bioactive compounds in yogurt can inhibit cell proliferation and stimulate apoptosis on the cancer cell line. However, there is no report about the effect of yogurt on a normal cell. This research was conducted to examine the impact of soyghurt supernatant intervention toward the viability of mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) cell. The is an in vitro study using MEF cell isolated from 10 th days gestational age mice embryo conducted at Microbiology Laboratorium and Cell Culture and Cytogenetic Laboratory, Universitas Padjadjaran, Bandung in November 2018–January 2019. Soyghurt made from soymilk fermented by Lactobacillus bulgaricus ATCC 11842. The number of the bacterial colony calculated by total plate count (TPC) method and pH calculated by pH meter. Soyghurt supernatant was made from soyghurt and then intervened into MEF cells by 1–20% concentration. The cell viability showed in the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC 50 ) analysis. The intervention of soyghurt supernatant at 1–20% concentration showed there was no proliferation inhibition until 50% population (IC 50 ). However, from the morphology analysis, there was MEF cell morphology alteration on the group given soyghurt supernatant with >12.5% concentration. Counter mechanism effect from soymilk fermentation by probiotic could be the driver for this result. In conclusion, soyghurt supernatant intervention at 1–20% concentration did not have a cytotoxic effect on MEF cell, but enhancement of soyghurt supernatant concentration can increase cytotoxic potential.

In vivo studies will show significant results, but it is difficult to do and time-consuming. Primary hippocampal cell culture widely has used in neurobiological studies such as identifying the cellular mechanism of proteins, neuronal activity, and characteristics. The results of studies conducted on this cell culture will be very useful in discovering pathogenesis of a disease, the effect of a substance on the neuron, and neural basis of memory and learning. However, currently in Indonesia, primary hippocampal cell culture is still rare and difficult to do. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that primary hippocampal cell culture can be done and developed in Indonesia and to review the application of it in medical researches. The study was an experimental study by obtaining neurons from animal’s hippocampus was conducted in 2015–2018 at Department of Cell Biology, Graduate School of Medicine Osaka University and Faculty of Medicine Universitas Padjadjaran. The experimental animal was mice embryo gathered 17.5-days postcoitus. Enzymatic and mechanical methods collected primary hippocampal cells. The cells counted and cultured, which later were observed to see neuron differentiation. The average number of culture cells from 3 embryonic’s hippocampus were 2.39×106. Neuron differentiation observed on the first day and more visible and numerous on the third day after plating. In conclusion, primary hippocampal cell culture using hippocampus from one hemisphere of embryonic mice brain showed a sufficient number of cells to carry out research and showed neuron differentiation. KULTUR SEL PRIMER HIPOKAMPUS DAN PENGGUNAANNYA DALAM RISET KEDOKTERANPenelitian dalam neurobiologi dapat dilakukan secara in vitro dan in vivo.

This treatment has a hepatoprotective effect as it increases heme oxygenase-1, an essential enzyme in heme catabolism. In hepatitis B, heme oxygenase-1 plays a vital role to fight oxidative stress. Hence the damage on liver cells can be reduced or even prevented. Damaged cells indicate by the production of aspartate aminotransferase (AST/SGOT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT/SGPT) enzymes that accumulated in the bloodstream. This study aimed to investigate the effect of kerokan to liver function by analyzing SGOT and SGPT levels in hepatitis B patients. These were an experimental study with a pre-test post-test control group design conducted in the public health center in Palembang in October 2016. Statistical analysis used the unpaired t test and paired. The research subjects were 30 patients with inactive carrier and chronic hepatitis B. The levels of SGOT and SGPT were determined using the IFCC method. The levels of SGOT in control (19.53±3.44 U/L) and treatment group (20.46±4.53 U/L, Δ=0.93) after 24–48 hours were not statistically different (p=0.53). Also, the levels of SGPT in control (18.66±5.40 U/L) and treatment group (19.80±9.25 U/L, Δ=1.13) after 24–48 hours were also not statistically different (p=0.68) as well. In conclusion, the liver cells of inactive carrier and chronic hepatitis B patients were not damaged (necrosis) after kerokan therapy, and the levels of SGOT and SGPT were still in the normal range. EFEK KEROKAN TERHADAP FUNGSI HEPAR PASIEN HEPATITIS BKerokan merupakan terapi alternatif yang dilakukan dengan menggosok dan menekan permukaan kulit menggunakan minyak dan benda tumpul. Pengobatan ini bersifat hepatoprotektif, yaitu meningkatkan produksi enzim heme oxygenase-1 dalam katabolisme heme. Pada hepatitis B, heme oxygenase-1 berperan penting dalam menangkal radikal bebas sehingga dapat mengurangi atau mencegah kerusakan sel hepar. Kerusakan sel hepar diindikasikan oleh produksi enzim aspartate aminotransferase (AST/SGOT) dan alanine aminotransferase (ALT/SGPT) yang terakumulasi dalam pembuluh darah. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui pengaruh kerokan pada fungsi hepar dengan menganalisis kadar SGOT dan SGPT pada pasien hepatitis B. Penelitian eksperimental ini menggunakan desain pre-test post-test control group yang dilakukan di puskesmas di Palembang pada Oktober 2016.

Based on the results of the Dunn test, the most significant difference found in the solution of wood shavings with the vegetable waste solution and the solution of wood shavings with corn straw (p<0.05). In conclusion, there is a difference in the effectiveness of the mosquito repellent solutions and the most attractive solution for mosquitoes to oviposit is the corn straw solution. EFEKTIVITAS BERBAGAI LARUTAN PENARIK NYAMUK UNTUK MENGONTROL POPULASI NYAMUK Penyakit tular vektor adalah penyakit yang disebabkan oleh organisme yang dapat mentransmisikan penyakit antarmanusia atau hewan ke manusia. Di Indonesia, terdapat beberapa penyakit tular vektor yang masih menjadi beban pemerintah, di antaranya demam berdarah, chikungunya , penyakit kaki gajah, dan malaria. Attractive baited lethal ovitrap (ALOT) merupakan strategi baru untuk menurunkan populasi nyamuk dalam tiga aksi utama, yaitu attraction , adulticide , dan larvacide . Penelitian terkait larutan dari tanaman yang dapat menarik nyamuk sangat diperlukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan membandingkan efektivitas larutan penarik nyamuk dengan menggunakan bahan dari limbah organik yang ada di Kota Bandung. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian analitik kuantitatif dengan desain quasi-eksperimental yang dilakukan di lingkungan Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Padjadjaran pada bulan Oktober 2016–Juli 2017. Subjek penelitian merupakan telur nyamuk yang ada pada larutan yang diletakkan pada 25 titik untuk setiap larutan. Analisis dengan Uji Kruskal-Wallis yang dilanjutkan dengan Uji Dunn. Hasil penelitian dengan Uji Kruskal-Wallis menunjukkan perbedaan efektivitas tiap-tiap larutan (p<0,05). Berdasar atas hasil Uji Dunn, perbedaan yang paling signifikan terdapat pada larutan serutan kayu dengan larutan sampah sayur dan larutan serutan kayu dengan jerami jagung (p<0,05). Simpulan, terdapat perbedaan efektivitas larutan penarik nyamuk dan la","PeriodicalId":312900,"journal":{"name":"Global Medical & Health Communication (GMHC)","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131760528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proper prescription will contribute to speedy recovery or healing process for the patient. Clinical clerkship must have an excellent competency to choose the right medication and prescribe the appropriate drugs or therapy. This study aims to analyze the common error in prescription's writing in clinical clerkship among medical students at their final examination to be a medical doctor. This study used the analytic method to 609 sheets of prescription from 180 clerkship students in their last try out on objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) at the Faculty of Medicine Universitas Islam Bandung in March 2018. Analyzed the component that every prescription should have, which consists of patient identity, superscription, inscription, subscription, and signatures. The result showed that more than half of the clerkship students made an error in subscription (50.25%) and signatures items (55.83%), while most of them had written down properly the patient identity (77.5%), superscription (83.74%), and inscription (78.98%). As a result, with more than half error in a prescription written in subscription and signature item, the failure of giving adequate therapy will cause a low recovery or healing process to the patients. Moreover, it may harm or cause death to the patients. In conclusion, more than half of medical students made common errors in prescription's writing. KESALAHAN PENULISAN RESEP PADA MAHASISWA KOASISTENSI FAKULTAS KEDOKTERANResep merupakan instruksi yang ditulis oleh tenaga medis untuk memberikan obat atau seperangkat alat kepada pasien. Peresepan yang tepat akan membawa proses pemulihan dan penyembuhan terhadap pasien. Mahasiswa kedokteran yang menjalankan masa koasisten harus memiliki kompetensi yang baik untuk memilih dan menuliskan terapi yang sesuai. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis kesalahan umum dalam penulisan resep pada mahasiswa kedokteran yang akan menghadapi ujian akhir untuk menjadi seorang dokter. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode analitik terhadap 609 lembar resep dari 180 mahasiswa kedokteran yang sedang melaksanakan try out akhir objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) di Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Islam Bandung pada Maret 2018. Dianalisis setiap komponen yang harus ada dalam penulisan resep, yaitu identitas pasien, superskripsi, inskripsi, subskripsi, dan signature. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa lebih dari setengah mahasiswa melakukan kesalahan pada item subskripsi (50,25%) dan signature (55,83%), sedangkan sebagian besar sudah menulis dengan baik pada item identitas pasien (77,5%), superskripsi (83,74%), dan inskripsi (78,98%). Akibatnya, dengan lebih dari setengah jumlah kesalahan dalam penulisan item subskripsi dan signature maka kegagalan dalam memberikan terapi yang adekuat dapat menyebabkan angka kesembuhan yang rendah, terlebih lagi dapat menimbulkan bahaya bahkan kematian te","PeriodicalId":312900,"journal":{"name":"Global Medical & Health Communication (GMHC)","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121861341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
