Pendahuluan: Saat ini, Indonesia memiliki masalah kesehatan baik berupa penyakit menular maupun penyakit tidak menular (PTM). Salah satu faktor risiko terjadinya PTM adalah kadar kolesterol yang tinggi di dalam darah (hiperkolesterolemia). Meningkatnya kadar kolesterol dapat menimbulkan masalah kesehatan seperti batu empedu, hipertensi, stroke hingga serangan jantung. Di Indonesia, berdasarkan data Riset Kesehatan Dasar (Riskesdas), prevalensi penderita hiperkolesterol pada usia diatas 15 tahun di tahun 2013 sebesar 35,9% dan menurun prevalensinya di tahun 2018 sebesar 28,8%. Walaupun berdasarkan data Riskesdas hiperkolesterol mengalami penurunan, namun angka ini masih diatas angka prevalensi hiperkolesterol di Asia Tenggara pada tahun 2013 dan berada sedikit dibawah prevalensi asia tenggara pada tahun 2018 sehingga berdasarkan data-data tersebut, hiperkolesterol menjadi salah satu masalah kesehatan di Indonesia. Isi : Hiperkolesterol dapat diturunkan dengan menggunakan obat-obatan seperti golongan statin dan fibrat. Dalam penggunaan jangka panjang, obat-obatan tersebut memberikan berbagai efek samping. Sebagai alternatifnya digunakan makanan yang mengandung komponen bioaktif yang berguna untuk mengontrol kadar kolesterol. Salah satunya adalah buah alpukat. Alpukat sangat direkomendasikan oleh AHA dalam panduan pola hidup untuk menurunkan risiko penyakit kardiovaskular. Buah ini disebut juga buah yang bebas kolestrol karena banyak mengandung MUFA. Tidak hanya buahnya, berdasarkan beberapa studi pada tikus, bahkan telah membuktikan bahwa ekstrak daun alpukat dan bijinya memiliki efek antihiperlipidemia. Selain memberikan manfaat buah alpukat juga memiliki kekurangan, namun apabila dibandingkan manfaatnya, maka manfaat dari buah alpukat jauh lebih besar dibandingkan dengan kekuranganya. Kesimpulan: Konsumsi buah alpukat (Persea americana) dapat menurunkan kadar LDL dan trigliserid sehingga menurunkan hiperkolesterolemia.

The health of periodontal tissue or tooth support is strongly influenced by a person's hormonal condition. In women of childbearing age, hormonal contraception is often an option, either orally, injected, or implanted. This study aims to analyze the effect of hormonal contraception on periodontal tissue. The manuscript deals with the effect of hormonal contraception on periodontal health with several indicators including loss of gum attachment (LoA), gingival index (GI), and pocket depth (PD). The three reviewers conducted a systematic review following the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis) protocol to obtain 9 articles that met the criteria. Statistical analysis to obtain the effect size was carried out using a random effect model with the help of Revman 5.3 software. The results of the meta-analysis showed that hormonal contraception provided a large size effect on pocket depth (SMD=2.16; CI=0.79, 3.3; I2=98%) and on the gingival index (SMD=4.37; CI=0.75,7.99; I2=99%) . Likewise for loss of attachment (SMD = 1.25; CI = 0.42.2.08; I2 = 98%), It can be concluded in this study that the use of hormonal contraception has an influence on periodontal health.

Childrens with Autism have difficulty to clean their oral cavity because less of ability in motor skills. Case reports show that the average autistic child has dental caries and periodontal disease due to the inability to brush their teeth properly. Autistic children spend a lot of time with their families so that the role of families, especially parents, is very important in the development of children with autism. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of brush teeth video counseling to improve brushing teeth skill in parents of autistic children at SLB 2 Provinsi Jambi. Study design is a quasi experimental study. The independent variable was the video counsellling of brushing teeth and the dependent variable was the parent’s ability of brushing teeth. The Sample in this study were parents of autistic children who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The average age of the respondents was 41 years (CI: 38 - 44). Wilcoxon test showed p value 0, 0001 (0.05) means significant difference of brushing skills between treatment group and control group. Mann Whitney showed p value 0.0042 (0.05), means significant difference between before and after intervention in the treatment group. Providing education on brushing skills to children with autism cannot be done instantly, it is necessary for the role of parents in teaching tooth brushing skills to be carried out continuously until children can brush their teeth independently. There is an improvement in brushing skills in parents of autistic children through counseling using videos on how to brush teeth.
