One of the proteins used as anti-cholesterol is an HMG-CoA-Reductase. Hesperidin in orange peel can reduce cholesterol levels by interacting with HMG-CoA-Reductase. To prove this, an in silico method was used by using swissdock.ch (http://swissdock.ch/docking#). The receptor protein in dyslipidemia was obtained from the RCSB Protein Data Bank (https://www.rcsb.org) namely HMG-CoA-reductase receptor with code PDB: 1HW9. The natural ligand, hesperidin, was obtained from PubChem with code: 10621 (https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/). Protein was prepared by omitting the natural ligand residues present in the protein. Ligand and protein preparations were used by the chimera 1.15. The result of this study indicated that the interaction of hesperidin with several amino acid recidues was predicted to provide inhibitory activity on HMG-CoA reductase as the protein target. Inhibition of HMG-CoA reductase will reduce mevalonate synthesis so that cholesterol levels will decrease.

Children as disaster victims who are prone to PTSD, they need to get serious treatment so that the consequences are not prolonged and hamper their development. One form of intervention that can be applied to restore the psychological condition of children affected by disasters is counseling through play therapy. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Play Therapy as a Trauma Healing Method in Children With PTSD Flood Disaster Victims. The research design used a quasi-experimental one pre-post test group research design. The research subjects were 35 children with mild to moderate PTSD based on the PLC C version of the PTSD questionnaire, aged 4-6 years. The study was conducted for 5 weeks with various play therapy media and the intervention was carried out for 3 weeks. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the scores of the pretest and posttest scores on the PTSD questionnaire (p = 0.000) with the Wilcoxon test after trauma healing with the play method was performed.
