ARE PROBIOTICS HELPFUL FOR ALLERGIES?
Get PDFAbstracts: A hypersensitive reaction brought on by the body's immune system reacting to a particular antigen is called an allergy. Over the past few decades, allergy illness prevalence has significantly increased, particularly in Western countries. According to the hygiene hypothesis, a child's vulnerability to allergies may rise if they have less early exposure to microorganisms and/or parasites. Efforts to balance immune function using probiotics have been driven by the important function that the microbiota plays in the interaction between the human immune system and its environment. Research on the advantages of using probiotics to prevent or lessen allergy symptoms has significantly increased in the last few years. This paper discusses the safety of using probiotics as well as their potential to prevent or lessen allergy illnesses

THE RELATIONSHIP OF SMOKING HABITS WITH HBA1C LEVELS IN TYPE TWO DM PATIENTS AT GOTONG ROYONG HOSPITAL
Get PDFBackground: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a disease whose prevalence continues to increase every year. In 2019, Indonesia was ranked number 7 with the highest number of DM sufferers, namely 10.7 million. Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by increased blood glucose levels, this occurs because there is not enough insulin produced by the pancreas or a condition where the body cannot use the insulin produced effectively. One examination that can be used to assess a patient's glycemic control is the Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) examination. Smoking habit is known to be a risk factor for diabetes mellitus. Even though there are many disadvantages, the number of smokers in Indonesia is still difficult to reduce due to the lack of education and control regulations that suppress smoking behavior in society. This causes smoking to become a risk factor for many uncontrolled diseases in the world of health.Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between smoking habits and HbA1c levels in male patients with type two DM at the Gotong Royong Hospital.Research method: This research uses observational analytical research with a case control study approach. In the research sample, namely type two Diabetes Mellitus patients who had their HbA1c levels checked at the Gotong Royong Hospital, a questionnaire was completed regarding the patient's smoking habits. From the results of the questionnaire, patients will be classified into non-smokers, light smokers, moderate smokers, and heavy smokers.Result: There is no significant relationship between smoking habits and HbA1c levels in type two diabetes mellitus patients at Gotong Royong Hospital with a P-value = 0.681
DIFFERENCES IN SCORING OF THORACIC PHOTOGRAPHS BETWEEN MDR-TB AND DS-TB PATIENTS WITH PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS
Get PDFBackground: Tuberculosis (TB) is ranked as the second deadliest infectious disease in the world. There is a drastic increase in TB cases by 2023 with 92% of these cases being pulmonary TB infections. Thoracic photography is a standard examination performed to determine the development of tuberculosis disease through reviewing populations with TB risk factors, one of which is patients with MDR-TB (Multi-Drug Resistance) can result in increased opacity in the lower lung lobes with pulmonary, cavity, and parenchymal lesions. Thoracic photo scoring was performed to determine the severity of lesions in the thoracic photo images of TB patients with MDR (Multi-Drug Resistance) and DS (Drug-Sensitive).Objective: to compare the scoring of thoracic photographs between of TB patients with MDR-TB and DS-TB.Method: using observational analytic method with cross-sectional research design. The sampling technique used purposive sampling method through medical records with analysis using two tests, namely Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney comparative test. Radiologic findings that we analyzed were infiltrate, consolidation, cavity, ground glass opacity, fibrosis, bronchiectasis, calcification, node, atelectasis, bullae, emphysema, and other nonlung parenchymal findings.Results: The samples to be analyzed were 55 samples had completed anti-tuberculosis therapy in the 6th month and had thoracic photographs. The Wilcoxon Comparative Test on two paired groups showed a significant difference between the TB group with MDR (p=0.008) and DS (p=0.000). In the Mann-Whitney comparative test on two unpaired groups, there were no significant results either TB groups with MDR and DS (p=0.282). Scoring results in MDR-TB patients after therapy showed mild (3.70%), moderate (44.44%), severe (51.85%) categories. In DS-TB patients, showed mild (37.03%), moderate (48.15%), severe (14.81%) categories.Conclusion: There is a significant difference between the severity of thoracic photographs in TB patients with MDR and without MDR (Drug-Sensitive)
