This research was conducted to describe the behavior of a trader regarding waste management in the Wonodri Market because there are still many traders who do not care about environmental hygiene related to the management of waste produced, such as disposing of trash leftover from the merchandise in an arbitrary manner and indifference from a trader to waste management. Therefore, an analysis of the behavior of traders is needed, one of which is related to independent waste management carried out by market traders. The method used is field survey, observation of market conditions, and literature study. The results showed that the behavior analysis of traders related to waste management in Wonodri Market was still not perfect, it was shown by the presence of piles of garbage in the kiosk/kiosk aisle, and the behavior of traders who still collected garbage mixed with each other in various compositions. This shows that traders care about waste management is still lacking. The level of education and environment of a trader greatly influences the knowledge and perceptions of traders in waste management in the Wonodri Market. The behavior of traders greatly influences the maintenance of a clean, comfortable and safe market environment, so that it does not hinder the buying and selling process between sellers and buyers and does not break the economic chain that occurs.
Typhoid fever is a problem in the developing country. Phyllanthus niruri L (meniran) is a traditional plant that can be used as an immunomodulator on cellular or humeral immunity. By giving Phyllanthus niruri L extract to patient who suffers typhoid fever can increase cellular immunity responses in intracellular bacteria infection (S.typhimurium).This research was an experimental study using the post test-only control group design to proof of the effects of Phyllanthus niruri L on cellular immunity balb/c infected by salmonella typhimurium. The samples were taken from thirty male Balb/c mice which were divided into five groups including P1 (infected by S.typhimurium and PnL extract 125 g), P2 (infected by S.typhimurium and PnL extract 250 g), P3 (infected by S.typhimurium and PnL extract 500 g), K1 (infected by S.typhimurium) and K2 (healthy mice). In this study was applied parametric test of one way ANOVA and post hoc test Bonfferoni. It was known that phyllanthus niruri L increased the number of activated lymphocytes and phagocyte ability of macrophage (p=0.003 and p=0.001, respectively). By Bonfferoni post hoc test resulted that no significantly difference between the treated groups (increased of dose). There were no significant difference between the number of leukocyte, the difference count of lymphocyte and the nitrite oxide produced among the treatment groups and controls. Phyllanthus niruri L dose 250 μg increased the activated lymphocyte and index phagocytes. To find out the effects of Phyllanthus niruri L compare to antibiotic and Phyllanthus niruri L combination, continuing/advancing studies are needed
The incidence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) is significantly increasing. The elevated serum uric acid (SUA) level is correlated with the metabolic risk of cardiovascular. The relationship between SUA levels and components of MetS has been inconsistent. The aim of this study was to know the correlation between SUA level and component of MetS by analyzng. This study was a cross-sectional design conducted on healthy people at the Medical Check Up (MCU) Clinic, Dr. Moewardi Hospital, Surakarta from June 2012 until February 2013. MetS was defined according to the 2005 International Diabetes Federation (IDF) criteria. The statistical analysis was done by Student’s T test, Pearson or Spearman correlation coefficients. The researchers considered p<0.05 as statistically significant with a 95% confidence interval. A total of 80 healthy subjects, (range 19–57 years) were enrolled into this study. MetS was diagnosed in 40 persons where men (62.5%) were more than women and the non-MetS in women (62.5%) were more than men. In this study, a positive correlation was found between SUA and systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and waist circumference (Pearson r=0.354, 0.495, 0.399, respectively, p<0.05) in women, but not in men. The SUA was positively correlated with systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and waist circumference, particularly in women. A long term study is needed to investigate the consequence of increasing the SUA level in metabolic disorders and hormonal influences as well.
Thalassemia major is one of the types of thalassemia that need a routine blood transfusion. If not treated immediately, the patient will only last for 1-8 months. Blood transfusions performed at least or more than 10 times causes iron overload. Excess levels of Fe ions in the body will be stored in the form of ferritin. If the ferritin level is high, cell damage will occur in the presence of a fat peroxidation reaction or Malondialdehyde (MDA). Cell damage can trigger proinflammation, which increases neutrophil counts and decreases lymphocyte counts. The Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR), which measures the ratio between Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) divided by Absolute Lymphocyte Count (ALC) with a manual peripheral blood picture. This study aimed to determine the correlation of ferritin levels with MDA and NLR in iron overload. This study used an analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach, with samples were thalassemia patients who received repeated blood transfusions at the General Hospital Dr. R Soetrasno, Rembang City and Regional General Hospital Dr. R Soedjati, Grobogan Purwodadi. Inclusion criteria were age 10-18 years, transfusion 10-20 times, normal body temperature. Exclusion criteria were Fe therapy orally, leukocytosis, chronic kidney disease. In the MDA levels, there was no significant difference where p=0.25 by Spearman test. In the NLR there was no significant difference where p=0.91 by Spearman test. There is no correlation between ferritin levels with MDA and NLR in iron overload.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
