Introduction. Pelvic organ prolapse is a condition where the pelvic organs descend from their original position and protrude into the vagina. This condition causes several complaints in the patients that can interfere with their daily activities and have an impact on their quality of life. One of the treatments that can be given to patients with POP is operative therapy, which one of the goals is to improve patient's quality of life. This study aims to determine the quality of life of pelvic organ prolapse patients with operative therapy at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin Hospital Palembang. Methods. This study used an observational analytical method with a cross-sectional study design. This study consisted of 17 respondents. This study used primary data from interviews using the P-QOL questionnaire guidelines and secondary data from medical records. Results. This study showed an improvement in the quality of life of pelvic organ prolapse patients in all P-QOL quality of life domains (p<0.05) after receiving operative therapy compared to before receiving operative therapy. Analysis of the effect of confounding factors on the total quality of life score showed that age (p=0.138), BMI (p=0.999), parity (p=0.468), degree of POP (p=0.439), and type of surgery (p=0.814) did not have a significant influence on the quality of life of postoperative POP patients. Conclusion. There was a significant improvement in the quality of life in pelvic organ prolapse patients after receiving operative therapy, and there is no significant relationship between age, BMI, parity, degree of POP, also type of surgery on the quality of life in postoperative POP patients.

Introduction. Stroke is the number one cause of death and disability in Indonesia. It was found that the incidents of stroke were higher at ages over 45 years. The use of pulse oximeter is an efficient step in monitoring oxygenation in stroke patients. Decreased oxygen levels can cause neurological deficits such as cognitive impairment, causing patients to have problems in attention and executive functions. This study aims to determine the relationship between the type of acute stroke and oxygen saturation in early hospitalization period. Methods. This research was carried out from November to December 2023 at the National Brain Center Hospital, Jakarta, using a cross sectional approach. Information on diagnosis and oxygen saturation values were obtained through medical records, with a total of 70 patients as subjects. Subjects selected through simple random sampling with patients age over 45 years. Statistical analysis used the Mann Whitney test with a significantly different p value <0.05. Results. A total of 68.6% of the subjects were male with ages of 45-59 dominated the subjects at 51.4%. Statistical tests on the type of acute stroke with oxygen saturation values produced a value of p = 0.044 (p < 0.05) on the 3rd day of hospitalization. These results indicate a significant relationship between the type of acute stroke and the oxygen saturation value on the 3rd day of hospitalization. Conclusion. There is a significant correlation between the type of acute stroke and oxygen saturation in the 3rd day of hospitalization.

Introduction. Thalassemia is inherited anemia in an autosomal recessive manner with a disruption in hemoglobin synthesis that causes a decreased amount of hemoglobin and anemia. Routine blood transfusions carried out by sufferers and parents' sociodemographic factors can cause an increased psychological burden on the patient's parents. This study investigated the relationship between the incidence of blood transfusions in pediatric patients and parents' sociodemographics with the anxiety level of parents in pediatric thalassemia major patients at RSMH Palembang. This study used an observational analytical method with a cross-sectional study design. Methods. This study used an observational analytical method with a cross-sectional study design. This study consisted of 42 respondents. This study used primary data from interviews and filling out the Z-SAS questionnaire and secondary data from medical records. Results. The distribution of blood transfusion found in thalassemia major children who had transfusions £1 time/month was 40.5%. Based on sociodemographics, 81% of respondents were women, 26.2% had a low level of education, 28.6% were in early adulthood, 61.9% had less income, 81% had 1 child, and 14.3% had thalassemia Major children diagnosed £1 year. The level of anxiety that dominated the results was normal/not anxious (72.8%) and mild anxiety (26.2%). (P Value= 0.305; 0.174; 1.00; 0.095; 0.158; 0.657; 0.644). Conclusion. There was no relation between blood transfusion incidence in children with thalassemia major and sociodemographic of parents with anxiety levels of children with thalassemia major parents in RSMH Palembang.

Introduction. Cherry leaf extract has been found to have the potentiality to impede the xanthine oxidase enzyme. It is believed that cherry mistletoe leaves also possess similar properties as they are hemiparasites of their host. This study aims to determine the inhibition effect of N-Hexane extract of mistletoe cherry leaves on the xanthine oxidase. Methods. This research was conducted as an experimental in-vitro study. Cherry mistletoe leaves were extracted by N-Hexane solvent. The extract was divided into five doses, i.e. 40 mg/L, 20 mg/L, 10 mg/L, 5 mg/L, and 2.5 mg/L. Phytochemical screening was conducted to identify secondary metabolites. The impact of xanthine oxidase inhibition was quantified using a UV-vis spectrophotometer at wavelength of 400 nm. Results. N-Hexane extract of cherry mistletoe leaves contains alkaloids and triterpenoids. N-Hexane extract of mistletoe cherry leaves at a dose of 40 mg/L, 20 mg/L, 10 mg/L, 5 mg/L, and 2.5 mg/L was able to inhibit the xanthine oxidase enzyme with the line equation y = -0.2543x+ 91.305. The IC50 value for the N-Hexane extract of cherry mistletoe leaves is 162 mg/L Conclusion. N-Hexane extract of cherry mistletoe leaves has the potency to inhibit the xanthine oxidase enzyme in the medium category.

Introduction. The need for Vitamin D can be fulfilled through direct synthesis from Vitamin D stores in the skin with the help of ultraviolet B rays. Therefore, sufficient Vitamin D intake and sun exposure are needed. Most of the activities of medical students on campus are indoors from morning to evening, so it is suspected that there is a risk of Vitamin D deficiency. The purpose of this study was to identify the risk of Vitamin D deficiency based on the characteristics of Vitamin D from food intake and sun exposure in Faculty of Medicine students, Universitas Sriwijaya. Methods. This research was a descriptive study using a questionnaire and observation. Age, sex, BMI and use of related drugs were recorded. The food survey method used was the repeated food recall which was then analyzed using Nutrisurvey 2007. Subjects filled out a questionnaire to obtain data on exposure scores and sun protection scores. The research subjects were students of the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Sriwijaya who were willing to sign informed consent and were present at the time of sampling. Results. The results from the data of 259 subjects showed that 98.8% of the subjects did not meet their vitamin D intake needs, with an average consumption of 123 ± 142 IU. Types of food that contribute the most Vitamin D are catfish (40%) and eggs (20%). None of the subjects took supplements containing Vitamin D. Sun exposure was sufficient for most subjects (62.9%), but most subjects were at risk of deficiency due to the use of sun protection (62.2%) Conclusion. There is a risk of deficiency in most medical students due to a lack of Vitamin D intake and the use of sun protection.
介绍。人体对维生素 D 的需求可通过皮肤中储存的维生素 D 在紫外线 B 的帮助下直接合成。因此，需要摄入足够的维生素 D 和接受阳光照射。医学生在校园里的活动大多从早到晚都在室内进行，因此怀疑存在维生素 D 缺乏的风险。本研究的目的是根据斯里维加亚大学医学系学生从食物摄入和阳光照射中获取维生素 D 的特点，确定维生素 D 缺乏的风险。研究方法本研究是一项描述性研究，采用问卷调查和观察法。对年龄、性别、体重指数和相关药物的使用情况进行了记录。采用的食物调查方法是重复食物回忆，然后使用 Nutrisurvey 2007 进行分析。研究对象填写了一份调查问卷，以获得有关暴露得分和防晒得分的数据。研究对象为斯里维加亚大学医学院的学生，他们愿意签署知情同意书，并在抽样时在场。研究结果259名受试者的数据结果显示，98.8%的受试者没有满足维生素D的摄入需求，平均摄入量为123 ± 142 IU。摄入维生素 D 最多的食物是鲶鱼（40%）和鸡蛋（20%）。大多数受试者（62.9%）晒太阳的时间足够，但大多数受试者由于使用防晒措施而面临缺乏维生素 D 的风险（62.2%）。由于缺乏维生素 D 摄入量和使用防晒措施，大多数医学生都有缺乏维生素 D 的风险。

Stress urinary incontinence is one of the urinary incontinence that is often found due to increased intra-abdominal pressure. Urinary incontinence can have a negative effect on the quality of life of the elderly. This study aims to provide an overview of the quality of life in elderly women with stress urinary incontinence. Method. This study is observational descriptive research. The data was obtained from interviews with elderly women at the Elderly Posyandu Dempo Health Center Palembang in the period October – November 2022, who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results. The samples in this study have more demographic characteristics of the elderly group at the age 60-69 years (70%), last education level in elementary school (47.5%), married (57.5%), and normal BMI (53.8%). This study found elderly women with a history of parity ≥ 2 (81.3%), and vaginal delivery (75%). It was found that elderly women with stress urinary incontinence had a moderate quality of life (82.5%) and moderate results in all domains of quality of life, namely physical health (46.3%), psychology (62.5%), social relations (53.7%), and the environment (62.5%). Conclusion. Elderly women with stress urinary incontinence at the Elderly Posyandu of the Dempo Palembang Health Center have a moderate quality of life and moderate impact on the domains of physical health, psychology, social relations, and the environment.","PeriodicalId":52711,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical Journal of Indonesia","volume":"5 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135974348","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}
Rhesus hemolytic disease of the newborn (RHDN) occurs due to alloimmunization of maternal red blood cells. Complications of RHDN in infants can lead to hyperbilirubinemia, kernicterus, and anemia. In Indonesia, RHDN prevention has not been a common activity so it is very important for pediatricians to recognize early signs of an infant with severe anemia and severe hyperbilirubinemia, to prevent long-term mortality and morbidity. A case with longitudinal observation of long-term growth and development of a child with a history of RHDN has been reported. Throughout the monitoring carried out, the child did not experience serious problems in the medical field but showed disorders or developmental delays that did not improve over time with various therapeutic efforts. Based on a serial monitoring and treatment data that has been carried out on the child, we assumed there has been permanent brain damage caused by hyperbilirubinemia conditions accompanied by co-morbid sepsis. Brain damage is characterized by low DQ values from the beginning, progressive head circumference leads to microcephaly conditions and the presence of brain defects in the form of arachnoid cysts. The management of child development disorders with RHDN to date has not shown encouraging results. Therefore, experts have shifted their focus towards preventive measures, such as intra-uterine fetal transfusion, which has been shown to significantly decrease the occurrence of RHDN-related child development disorders over the past decade.

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common entrapment neuropathy of the peripheral nerves in the upper extremities that is often found in workers. Nerve conduction disorders occur due to compression of the carpal tunnel, resulting in motor and sensory symptoms in the hands and wrists. This causes clinical symptoms and characteristic neurophysiological examinations. Vitamin D is an intrinsic factor that causes CTS which is now widely studied and is expected to play a role in the choice of CTS management. Vitamin D is important for maintaining health and has been found to have neuroprotective function. Several studies have proven the association between vitamin D deficiency and the incidence of CTS. Supplementation can improve clinical symptoms and neurophysiological features of mild to moderate CTS patients.
