Identifikasi Polimorfisme Titik -1082 Promoter Gen IL-10 pada Penderita Kusta
No full textLeprosy is a chronic disease caused by Mycobacterium lepraeinfection, which affects skin and nerves, then can result in disability. Interleukin-10 have an important role in the pathogenesis of leprosy. Polymorphism in this gene promoter is thought to affect IL-10 production, which can then influence the process of microbial elimination in the development of leprosy. One of the most common polymorphisms associated with IL-10 is the polymorphism of the -1082 on the gene promoter. The purpose of this study was to identify the polymorphism of the -1082 interleukin-10 gene promoter in leprosy patients treated at RSUP dr. Mohammad Hoesin Palembang. This research is an observational descriptive study with cross sectional design. Polymorphism of -1082 interleukin-10 gene promoter was measured by PCR-RFLP method, electrophoresis, and visualized in UV light. From this study it was found that the frequency distribution of genotype AA was 80%, AG was 14%, and GG was 6%. The frequency distribution of allele A is 87% and allele G is 13%.

Perbandingan Efektivitas Antibakteri Moringa oleifera dan Ziziphus mauritiana dengan Ekstrak Etanol 96% terhadap Escherichia Coli
No full textEscherichia coli is a normal bacterium in the lower part of human digestion, but if the amount is above normal, E. coli will cause various diseases. Inappropriate use of antibiotics can cause resistance, so alternative treatments such as herbal medicines are needed. Herbal plants that have been explored as antibacterial compounds are Moringa oleifera leaves and Bidara leaves (Ziziphus mauritiana). This research was conducted to see the comparison of the antibacterial effectiveness of Moringa oleifera and Ziziphus mauritiana with 96% ethanol solvent against E.coli. The design of this study used an experimental study conducted in vitro. Moringa oleifera and Ziziphus mauritiana were extracted at 10 different concentrations. The test method used was disk diffusion on Mueller-Hinton agar. The treatment group is E. coli ATCC 25922, Ciproflxacin were used as positive controls and discs immersed in 96% ethanol were used as negative controls.The average zone of inhibition of Moringa oleifera leaf extract was 10 mm, while Ziziphus mauritiana leaf extract gave an average of inhibition zone of 14 mm. The average zone of inhibition from positive control is 33 mm. Negative control has no zone of inhibition. Moringa oleifera leaf extract can inhibit the growth of E. coli bacteria at a concentration of 30% with a zone of inhibition of 7 mm, and leaf extract of Ziziphus mauritiana can inhibit the growth of E. coli bacteria at a concentration of 20% with a 12 mm inhibition zone. This proves that Ziziphus mauritiana has more effective antibacterial ability than Moringa oleifera.Escherichia coli adalah bakteri normal pada pencernaan bagian bawah manusia, namun jika dalam jumlah di atas normal, E. coliakan menimbulkan berbagai penyakit. Penggunaan antibiotik yang tidak tepat dapat menyebabkan resistensi sehingga diperlukan pengobatan alternatif seperti obat-obatan herbal. Tanaman obat yang sudah banyak dieksplorasi sebagai senyawa antibakterial adalah daun kelor(Moringa oleifera)dan daun bidara (Ziziphus mauritiana). Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk melihat perbandingan efektivitas antibakteri Moringa oleifera dan Ziziphus mauritiana dengan pelarut etanol 96% terhadap E.coli.Desain penelitian ini menggunakan studi eksperimental in vitro. Moringa oleifera dan Ziziphus mauritiana diekstrak pada 10 konsentrasi yang berbeda. Metode uji yang digunakan adalah difusi cakram pada agar Mueller-Hinton. Kelompok perlakuan yaitu E. coliATCC 25922, Ciprofloksasin digunakan sebagai kontrol positif dan cakram yang direndam dalam etanol 96% digunakan sebagai kontrol negatif. Rata–rata zona inhibisi ekstrak daun Moringa oleifera adalah 10 mm,sedangkanekstrak daun Ziziphus mauritiana menimbulkan rata–rata zona inhibisi sebesar 14 mm.Rata–rata zona inhibisi dari kontrol positif adalah 33 mm. Kontrol negatif tidak memiliki zona inhibisi. Ekstrak daun Moringa oleifera dapat menginhibisi pertumbuhan bakteri E. coli pada konsentrasi 30% dengan zona inhibisi sebesar 7 mm, dan ekstrak daun Ziziphus mauritianadapat menginhibisi pertumbuhan bakteri E. coli pada konsentrasi 20% dengan zona inhibisi 12 mm. Hal ini membuktikan bahwa Ziziphus mauritiana memiliki kemampuan antibakteri yang lebih efektif daripada Moringa oleifera
Comparison of Time and Sequence of Permanent Tooth Eruptions in Chinese and Arabic Ethnic Groups
No full textIntroduction. Tooth eruption is a process of moving teeth into the oral cavity through the soft tissue and mucosa that lines the jaw until it comes into contact with the antagonistic teeth and functions in mastication. The timing and sequence of tooth eruptions for each individual varies, which is influenced by several factors, one of which is race and ethnicity. Indonesia is known as a multi-ethnic country, including Chinese and Arabic ethnic groups. The purpose of the study was to compare the timing and sequence of eruption of permanent teeth in ethnic Chinese and Arabs
Methods. This type of research is an observational study with a cross sectional design. The sample of this study were 327 children consisting of 201 ethnic Chinese and 126 Arab ethnicities with an age range of 6-13 years. . The eruption of all permanent teeth was examined except for the third molar. The mean time to eruption of permanent teeth was calculated using the Karber method. The data were analyzed statistically using the Mann-Whitney test.
Results. The first permanent teeth erupted in the two ethnic groups were the mandibular central incisors around the age of 7 years and the last eruption was the maxillary second molar around the age of 11 years. Significant differences in the eruption time of the permanent teeth between ethnicities were shown in the maxillary central and second molars and lateral incisors and mandibular first molars (p <0.05). The eruption sequence pattern in both ethnicities was almost the same except for the canines and second premolars in the upper and lower jaws.
Conclusion. There are differences in the timing and sequence of eruption of permanent teeth between ethnic Chinese and Arabs
PERAN HEPCIDIN DAN VITAMIN D DALAM PATOFISIOLOGI ANEMIA PADA ANAK DENGAN PENYAKIT GINJAL KRONIK
No full textIn patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), renal function in maintaining the homeostasis of various metabolic systems of the body is impaired, one of which is the production of erythropoietin hormones. Anemia is a frequent complication of the CKD and contributes to the increasing morbidity and mortality of the patients. Diagnosis or treatment of anemia in PGK is still a challenge due to multifacorial.
Hepcidin, a peptide that has been known as an acute phase protein, plays an important role in the regulation of iron metabolism. Hepcidin is known to have a correlation with ferritin, a parameter of anemia screening which is commonly examined during this time. In addition to the role of pathophysiology anemia in CKD, hepcidin is currently widely researched because it is suspected to contribute also to the pathophysiology of bone mineral disorders in PGK. Current research shows that the concentration of vitamin D is inversely proportional to the concentration of hepcidin and is positively associated with the concentration of hemoglobin and iron. The latest report invitro and invivo support the existence of the interaction between vitamin D and anemia in patients with PGK through the role of Hepcidin.
Keywords: chronic kidney disease, anemia, hepcidin, vitamin DPada penderita penyakit ginjal kronis (PGK), fungsi ginjal dalam mempertahankan homeostasis berbagai sistem metabolisme tubuh terganggu, salah satunya adalah memproduksi hormon eritropoietin. Anemia merupakan komplikasi yang sering terjadi pada PGK dan turut berperan dalam meningkatkan morbiditas dan mortalitas penderita. Diagnosis maupun tatalaksana anemia pada PGK masih merupakan tantangan karena multifaktorial.
Hepcidin, suatu peptida yang telah dikenal sebagai protein fase akut yang berperan pada regulasi metabolisme besi. Hepcidin diketahui memiliki korelasi dengan ferritin, suatu parameter pemeriksaan anemia yang lazim diperiksa selama ini. Selain berperan pada patofisiologi anemia pada PGK, hepcidin saat ini banyak diteliti karena diduga turut berperan pada patofisiologi gangguan mineral tulang pada PGK. Penelitian saat ini menunjukkan bahwa konsentrasi vitamin D berbanding terbalik dengan konsentrasi hepcidin dan berhubungan positif dengan konsentrasi hemoglobin dan besi. Laporan terbaru secara invitro dan invivo mendukung adanya hubungan antara vitamin D dan anemia pada pasien dengan PGK melalui peran hepcidin.
