Chronic Kidney Disease is evident if the blood urea level is more than 200 mg/dl. Uremia causes a malfunction in almost all organ systems such as; fluid and electrolyte disorders, metabolic endocrine, neuromuscular, cardiovascular and pulmonary, skin, gastrointestinal, hematological, and immunological. Hemodialysis is an attempt to reduce the symptoms of uremia so that the patient's clinical condition can also improve. The purpose of this study was to determine the description of Ureum and Creatinine in CKD Patients undergoing Hemodialysis. This type of research is observational descriptive. The sample included all CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis at the Ir Sukarno Sukoharjo Regional Hospital in 2019 who met the inclusion criteria, so as many as 83 samples were obtained. The type of data is secondary data obtained from medical records. The results showed that most patients were in the 40-60 years age group of 72% and the majority of the male sex were 51 patients (61%). Urea and creatinine appearance in patients undergoing hemodialysis has increased very high. In 83 patients with CKD increased serum creatinine levels ( 100%) with a mean creatinine level in men of 11.80 mg / dL and women of 9.73 mg / dL and an increase in ureum levels with a mean of 167 men, 09 mg / dL and women of 164.39 mg / dL. This study concludes that all patients with CKD have increased levels of urea and creatinine by more than 100%.
Honey and cinnamon are plant products that have many properties, one of which is used as an antibacterial agent for various diseases. The effectiveness of the two active substances against bacteria in the Enterobacteriaeae family is unclear. The study was conducted to determine the differences in the effectiveness of forest honey and cinnamon in inhibiting the growth of bacteria in the Enterobacteriaceae family. This research method is an experimental study with a combination method of diffusion and wells using samples of the bacteria Klebsiella pneumoniae, Esherichia coli, Salmonella typhi, Serratia marcescens, and Enterobacter cloacae. Forest pure honey and cinnamon were prepared as test solutions with concentrations of 25%, 40%, 55%, 70%, 85% and 100%. The results obtained were the inhibition zone formed on Nutrient Agar Plate (NAP) media, in forest pure honey the inhibition zone formed in S. typhi, E. coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Serratia marcescens, and Enterobacter cloacae was greater at 100% concentration, namely 30.5mm, 32.5mm, 38mm, 29.5mm, 26mm, while the 100% concentration of cinnamon showed results, namely 12mm, 10mm, 8.5mm, 11mm, and 11mm. Conclusion is Forest pure honey was more effective at inhibiting bacteria from the Enterobacteriaceae family than cinnamon.
The body's form of defense or natural immune response against intracellular bacteria is phagocytosis. Cells capable of phagocytosing macrophages in natural responses play a role in presenting antigens to lymphocytes in specific immune responses. The number of lymphocytes associated with the incidence of death in TB patients in hospitals. This study aims to determine the lymphocyte profile in pulmonary TB patients with new cases in the city of Semarang in 2020. This study uses a descriptive-analytic research design. The population in this study were new cases of pulmonary TB patients at the Semarang Health Center in 2020. The sample in this study was new cases of pulmonary TB patients at the Semarang Health Center from September to October 2020. The results showed that the newest cases of pulmonary TB were male (59%), and based on age the most were productive age (87.8%), and the lymphocyte profile of 78% of respondents had relative lymphopenia, 19.5% of respondents were normal and 2.4% of respondents experienced relative lymphocytosis. Overall, it can be said that the profile of patients with lymphopenia is 14.63%, and relative lymphopenia is 78%.
Bilirubin is a substance formed from the normal breakdown of erythrocytes in the body so that it gives a yellow color to the stool and urine. The test of bilirubin in the laboratory must avoid exposure to light, which can cause decreased serum bilirubin levels by up to 50% in 1 hour due to disruption of the bilirubin's stability. This study is a cross-sectional analytic study of primary data using 30 samples of jaundice baby serum and direct and total bilirubin test. Data collection was conducted from the primary data by a direct test using 40 samples of infant jaundice and test of direct bilirubin and total bilirubin using methods Dichlorophenyl Diazonium. The results of the tests of 40 samples can result in the mean levels of total bilirubin were exposed to the light of 8.58 mg/dl and were not exposed to light 12,67mg /dl. Direct bilirubin levels mean that exposure to light is 3.98 mg/dl. In contrast, the unexposed light of 8.71 mg/dl, so that it can be concluded that the levels of total and direct bilirubin in serum jaundice infants exposed to lower light compared with those not exposed to light.
An Escherichia coli bacterium is normal flora bacteria in human body. The excess of bacteria can cause diseases. Garlic has allicin compound, which known as antimicrobial compound.. The research a purpose to determine the antibacterial activity of garlic against the bacteria Escherichia coli at a concentration of garlic and what was the most powerful (effective) hinders the growth of the bacterium Escherichia coli. The research was a laboratory experiment with antimicrobial testing using paper disc diffusion method. Garlic extract was made by the process of maceration. Maceration process conducted over 5 days. Garlic extracted and then tested on the growth of Escherichia coli with three repetitions. Observation was made after 1x24 hours. Then observed a clear zone was formed, the zone was measured by using a ruler. Results of the research noted that garlic extract has the ability to inhibit the growth of bacteria Escherichia coli and seen a proportional relation-ship in each other, concentration of garlic extract become greater as inhibiting the growth of the bacterium Escherichia coli does so. The most effective concentration to inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli bacteria was garlic extract concentration of 75 % with an average diameter of 10.66 mm zone of inhibition and concentration of 100% with an average inhibition zone diameter of 13.33 mm. Garlic can be used as medicine of natural materials dan consume garlic regularly can prevent the growth of escherichia coli bacteria that can not controlled in the body.
