Adam Hibatullahrahayu.md5059@gmail.comValidation of culture results based on direct gram stain plays a vital role in differentiating pathogens' cause of infection or colonization in pneumonia cases. Our study aims to evaluate the validation of diagnostic microbiology based on gram stain and culture compared to chest radiography in critically ill patients with suspected pneumonia. This was a single-center retrospective data analysis in the Intensive Care Unit at Secondary Care Hospital in Central Java. The quality of sputum was determined by using a Modification Criteria of Bartlett and a Semi-Quantitative Score. The results of sputum culture with neutrophils count > 10 and bacterial count > 2 per field in Gram stain were considered the presumptive pathogen. Seventy sputum specimens were collected; however, only 58 were selected for further analysis in this study. In sputum specimens with Bartlett score +2 and Semi-Quantitave score 3 or 4, the chest x-ray results of all patients had positive infiltrates (100%). Diagnostics accuracy of the results of clinical microbiologist examination with chest X-ray had a sensitivity of 90%, specificity of 60.71 %, accuracy of 65.5%, a positive predictive value of 61.36%, a negative predictive value of 78.6%. It was concluded that validation of diagnostic microbiology based on gram stain and culture had susceptible and adequately specific results to differentiate between presumptive pathogens from colonization in pneumonia cases.2023-12-31T00:00:00+08:00Copyright (c) 2023 Sains Medika : Jurnal Kedokteran dan Kesehatanhttps://jurnal.unissula.ac.id/index.php/sainsmedika/article/view/32939Self-efficacy to stop using drugs in adolescent boys at child development institute (LPKA) Palembang city2024-02-10T11:45:13+08:00Nadia Rahma Safiranadiarahma2702@gmail.comFenny Etrawatifenny_etrawati@fkm.unsri.ac.idNabila Eka Putrinabilaekaputri00@gmail.comAdolescent drug misuse self-efficacy pertains to an individual's ideas regarding their capacity and potential to conquer drug addiction and prevent relapse. The objective of the study was to examine the self-efficacy of male adolescent convicts at Child Development Institute<em> (LPKA</em><em>) </em>Palembang City in their ability to cease drug use. This study employed a quantitative methodology utilizing a cross-sectional research design. The sample comprised 111 adolescents aged 15-24 who engaged in drug addiction at <em>(LPKA) </em>Palembang City. The independent variables include age, education, knowledge, emotional state, and social modeling, whereas the dependent variable is self-efficacy. The analysis employed univariate, bivariate, and multivariate methods. The findings indicate that 45.9% of the respondents had high self-efficacy, while 54.1% had low self-efficacy. Additionally, there is a significant correlation between the age of the respondents (p=0.004, PR=3.360, 95% CI (1.523-7.413)), their knowledge (p=0.000, PR=8.017, 95%CI (2.976-21.597)), emotional state (p=0.004, PR=3.334, 95%CI (1.515-7.339)), and social modeling (p=0.011, PR =3.333, 95% CI (1.377-8.070)) with their self-efficacy. However, the education level variable (p=0.700, PR=0.790) showed no correlation with self-efficacy. Knowledge emerged as the primary factor influencing self-efficacy (p=0.000, PR=7.153, 95% CI (2.375-21.549)) after accounting for age, social modelling and emotional state. The formation of self-efficacy to cease drug abuse is influenced by a deep understanding of the perils associated with drugs Intensive education from health workers together with <em>LPKA </em>administrators is needed to improve the self-efficacy of adolescent boys who abuse drugs so that they can stop using drugs.2023-12-27T00:00:00+08:00Copyright (c) 2023 Sains Medika : Jurnal Kedokteran dan Kesehatanhttps://jurnal.unissula.ac.id/index.php/sainsmedika/article/view/34029Probiotic Lactobacillus Acidophilus, Streptococcus Thermophilus, and Bifidobacterium Longum Effect on Bilirubin Levels of Neonates With Hyperbilirubinemia2024-02-10T11:27:48+08:00Pujiati Abbaspujiatiabbas@unissula.ac.idCitra Primavita Mayangsaricitraprimavita@gmail.comRobby Gunawanrobbygunawan9903@gmail.com<p><strong>ABSTRACT </strong></p><p><strong>Introduction: </strong>Hyperbilirubinemia, a prevalent condition in neonates, is associated with the potential for hospital readmission. Recent research has spotlighted probiotics as a promising alternative for mitigating bilirubin levels. This study aims to scrutinize the impact of probiotics, specifically <em>Lactobacillus acidophilus, Streptococcus thermophilus,</em> and<em> Bifidobacterium longum</em>, on bilirubin levels in neonates grappling with hyperbilirubinemia.<strong></strong></p><p><strong>Objective: </strong>The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effects of the combination 0f phototeraphy with probiotic of Lactobacillus acidophilus, Streptococcus thermophilus, and Bifidobacterium longum on bilirubin levels in neonates with hyperbilirubinemia.<strong></strong></p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>The study at RSI Sultan Agung Semarang used a prospective observational design with pre-post-test groups. Neonates hospitalized from August to November 2022 for hyperbilirubinemia were consecutively sampled. Licensing, ethical clearance, and data collection focused on hyperbilirubinemia status, routine blood tests, and mean bilirubin reduction. The control group received phototherapy, while the treatment group had phototherapy and probiotics (Lactobacillus acidophilus, Streptococcus thermophilus, and Bifidobacterium longum) for 7 days. SPSS software analyzed the data, using Paired T-Test or Wilcoxon test based on normality, with Mann Whitney test for group comparison (p<0.05)</p><p>.<strong>Results: </strong>The study assessed bilirubin levels in neonates with hyperbilirubinemia using the Shapiro-Wilk test for normality. While some variables showed non-normal distribution, the Wilcoxon non-parametric test revealed significant differences (p<0.05) in Total and Indirect Bilirubin within both control and treatment groups post-treatment. Direct Bilirubin did not exhibit a significant difference (p>0.05). The Mann-Whitney test demonstrated no significant difference (p>0.05) in mean values between the treatment group (receiving phototherapy and probiotics) and the control group. However in this study, it was found that there was a lower average decrease of total bilirubin and indirect bilirubin in the intervention group (6,50 mg/dl) ; (7,20 mg/dl) during the intervention period compared to the control group (6,70 mg/dl); (7,48 mg/dl). Although Furthermore, the use of probiotics was identified as safe and well-tolerated among the study participants.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>In conclusion, the findings suggest that the administration of probiotics, specifically <em>Lactobacillus acidophilus, Streptococcus thermophilus, </em>and<em> Bifidobacterium longum</em>, could serve as an adjuvant and safe alternative therapy for neonates grappling with hyperbilirubinemia. Although there is no significant difference compared to therapy using phototherapy alone, a faster average decrease was observed with phototherapy combined with <em>Lactobacillus acidophilus, Streptococcus thermophilus, </em>and<em> Bifidobacterium longum</em> . This has implications for the management and treatment of hyperbilirubinemia, potentially reducing the need for hospital readmissions.<strong></strong></p><p><strong><em>Keywords: </em></strong>hyperbilirubinemia, neonates, probiotics, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Streptococcus thermophilus, Bifidobacterium longum.<strong><em></em></strong></p><p><em> </em></p>2023-12-29T00:00:00+08:00Copyright (c) 2024 Sains Medika : Jurnal Kedokteran dan Kesehatanhttps://jurnal.unissula.ac.id/index.php/sainsmedika/article/view/23678Traditional herbal medicine for hyperuricemia: A review of randomized clinical trials2024-02-10T11:27:49+08:00Arief Gunawan Darmantoarief.gunawan@ciputra.ac.idFlorence Pribadiflorence.pribadi@ciputra.ac.idYoselyn Sucahyoynatasya@student.ciputra.ac.idArini Wiraputriawiraputri@student.ciputra.ac.idDella Mardhikadmardhika@student.ciputra.ac.idChrist Tambuangctambuang@student.ciputra.ac.idAdinda Setiawanazharifah@student.ciputra.ac.idUmmu Habibahuhabibah@student.ciputra.ac.idKevin Lukekevinluke19@gmail.com<p>In the last decades, traditional herbal medicine for gout has been rapidly advanced. Numerous herbs have been identified for their hypouricidal effect. This review aims to explain the potential and mechanisms of traditional herbal medicine in reducing serum uric acid (sUA). This review included five RCTs and four traditional herbal medicine formulas from a previous systematic review. Articles published in non-English language were excluded for further analysis. Despite limited RCTs design, the formula of Chuanhu; Tufu, and ZinutriK<sup>® </sup>were beneficial for hyperuricemic individuals. While Yellow-dragon Wonderful-seed mixture showed limited hypouricemic feature. Based on these findings, traditional herbal medicine holds promising potential in treating hyperuricemia and gout. However, further studies are required.</p>2023-12-11T00:00:00+08:00Copyright (c) 2023 Sains Medika
