Journal ID : AMJ-20-12-2022-10943; Author : Dwi Astuti, Normah Awang, Mohd Sham Bin Othman, Nurul Farahana Binti Kamaludin, Chan Kok Meng, M. Mutalazimah,
Abstract : The liquid waste of the tanning industry contains chromium metal of a toxic nature. The heavy metal chromium has high solubility and toxicity and is toxic to living things with a concentration of more than 0.05 ppm. For this reason, it is necessary to conduct a toxicity test to determine the level of danger from wastewater if it is discharged into the environment. The purpose of this study was to determine the value of LC concentration of 50 96 hours from tanning liquid waste to tilapia mortality (Oreochromis niloticus). The method used in this study is an experimental method. The data used is in the form of primary data and secondary data. The measured wastewater parameters are temperature, pH, BOD, COD, TSS, Cr, oil and fat, ammonia, sulfide, and nitrogen. Data analysis using probit analysis. The results of this study show that LC 50 96 hours is 261,3 ppm, so tanning wastewater needs to be treated first before being discharged into the environment.

The dynamics of Tumour Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-α) in early phase of tuberculosis treatment: contribution of Nucleotide Binding Oligomerization Domain Containing 2 (NOD2) expression
Journal ID : AMJ-19-12-2022-10941; Author : Nurjannah Lihawa, Irawan Yusuf, Irawaty Djaharuddin, Najdah Hidayah, Mochammad Hatta, Muhammad Amin,
Abstract : Tuberculosis remains an old contagious disease that still has an impact on humanity. Despite the development of new diagnostic tools and drugs, the annual tuberculosis death rate remains high. It is known that, statistically, around 5–10% of people infected by MTB will actually develop active TB, due to the balance of immune system between host and the mycobacterium. Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 2 (NOD2) is part of the Pattern Recognition Receptors (PRR) which play the first role in recognizing invasion from MTB through NLRs (NOD-like Receptors). Specific role of NOD2 is the response to a fragment of the bacterial cell wall, muramyl dipeptide (MDP), and in turn activated NF-κB to release pro inflammatory cytokine e.g TNF-α. Several studies have reported on the activity of this NOD2 gene, but there are still not many that link it to the effect of treatment on pulmonary TB. This study was conducted to determine the expression of the NOD2 gene and the levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokine TNF-α in pulmonary TB patients before and after 2 months of treatment. This study was a cohort study that followed patients for two months of treatment. This study included 36 patients diagnosed as new cases of pulmonary tuberculosis, all of whom were over the age of 18 and willing to sign informed consent. TNF- levels were investigated using the ELISA method, and NOD2 gene expression was investigated using the PCR method. There was a tendency to decrease NOD2 gene expression and TNF-α levels after 2 months of treatment, although it was not statistically significant. NOD2 gene expression was found to be significantly higher after 2 months of treatment with TNF-α (p = 0.029). Changes in TNF-cytokine serum levels vary in this study, but tend to decrease after 2 months of ATT. This study also shows a decrease in NOD2 gene expression, and we discovered the possibility of TNF- against NOD2 gene regulation after 2 months of ATT.

Journal ID : AMJ-19-12-2022-10940; Author : Nur'atmi Gusti Dewi, Tina Christina L Tobing, Inke Nadia D Lubis, Juliandi Harahap, Pertin Sianturi, Ika Citra Dewi Tanjung,
Abstract : Atrial septal defect (ASD) is one of the three most common types of congenital heart disease (CHD) in children. With the development of transcatheter closure technology is widely used in clinical practice. It is necessary to assess the quality of life of CHD patients besides mortality and morbidity. The aim of this study is to determine the quality of life children with ASD before and after transcatheter closure of ASD. An one group pretest-posttest study in 36 childrens with ASD where the defect was closed by transcatheter at H. Adam Malik hospital Medan from March 2021 to December 2021 and assessed the quality of life of the subject before and after transcatheter closure of ASD. All components of quality of life showed a significant difference between before and after transcatheter closure of ASD (p<0.05). After transcatheter closure of ASD only two people (5.6%) still showed impaired quality of life. By using the Spearman correlation test, it was shown that the quality of life with the domain of school function had a significant correlation with the size of the septal defect diameter (p=0.006). The correlation value (r) obtained is -0.446, but not with other function domains. There is a strong correlation between the age of septal defect closure and quality of life. There was difference between the quality of life children with ASD before and after transcatheter closure of ASD.

Journal ID : AMJ-19-12-2022-10939; Author : Rocky Wilar, Johnny Rompis, Shekina Rondonuwu, David Kaunang, Fima Langi, Irene Mutiara Tandra,
Abstract : Ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) is pneumonia in mechanically ventilated patients that develops at 48 hours or later after the patient on mechanical ventilation. Ventilator associated pneumonia is the second most common cause of nosocomial infections (20% of nosocomial infections) in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). To investigate risk factors, causative bacteria, and outcome of VAP in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). The research was conducted from March 2022 to June 2022 with a cross-sectional design in the NICU of Prof. RSUP. R. D. Kandou Manado. Causative bacteria were isolated from endotracheal tube (ETT) Data were analyzed using logistic regression with significance of p<0.05. Of the 50 subjects, 34 neonates (68.0%) were diagnosed with VAP. The mortality rate in the VAP group was 36.4% and the non-VAP group was 35.3%. There was no relationship between sex, duration of mechanical ventilation and duration of stay in the NICU on the incidence of VAP in neonates. Whereas, age, gestational age and birth weight associated with the incidence of VAP in neonates. The median (IQR) of age in the VAP group was 5(1.7-7.2) and 2(0-3) in the non-VAP group with a p of 0.003. The median (IQR) of gestational age in the VAP group was 35.5 (32-38) and 38(37-38) in the nno-VAP group with a p of 0.05. Birth weight <2500 gr was associated with the incidence of VAP in neonates with a p of 0.001. The most common type of bacteria found was Klebsiella Pneumoniae sp. with a proportion of 26.4% and Acinetobacter Baumannii with a proportion of 23.5%. VAP causes a high rate of neonatal mortality. Age, gestational age, and birth weight are associated with the incidence of VAP in neonates. The most common bacteria that cause VAP are Klebsiella Pneumoniae sp and Acinetobacter Baumannii.

Abstract : Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) are the leading cause of death for 36 million (63%) of all deaths worldwide. About 29 million (80%) occur in developing countries. The increasing prevalence of Non-Communicable Diseases cannot be separated from the risk factors that are not avoided by the Indonesian people which began to occur during adolescence. Jika teenagers never do physical activity and regulate diet, they will be at risk of developing Non-Communicable Diseases such as Obesity and diabetes mellitus. The purpose of this study was to identify behavioral factors to prevent the risk of non-communicable diseases of DKI Jakarta High School students. The type of quantitative research used is using a quasi-experimental method with a non-equivalent control group pretest and posttest design. The total sample of 220 students in four DKI Jakarta schools. Sampling carried out by Purposive Sampling. The test used is chi Square with univariate, bivariate and multivariate data analysis. The intervention carried out by providing modules and Application, School-based PTM Posbindu can improve Student PTM Risk Prevention Behavior. School-based PTM Posbindu Application improves Student Non-Communicable Disease Risk Prevention Behavior. Dietary attitudes, physical activity attitudes and student self-efficacy influence the prevention behavior of the risk of Non-Communicable Diseases. The most dominant variable influencing Non-Communicable Disease risk prevention behavior is the student's dietary attitude. It is necessary to further develop the Posbindu model that already exists in the school setting to improve the Risk Prevention Behavior of PTM student.

Factors influencing the Smile analysis
Journal ID : AMJ-18-12-2022-10936; Author : Sana Jumi Ali, Sahar Hamdan Abdulghafoor, Luma Musa Ibrahim, Hala A. Alwan,
Abstract : Smile design refers to the many scientific and artistic principles that considered collectively can create a beautiful smile. These principles are established through data collected from patients, diagnostic models, dental research, scientific measurements, and basic artistic concepts of beauty. From the patient’s perspective, beauty measures that individual’s perception of beauty as noted in the saying: ‘‘Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.’’ That perception of beauty may also be influenced by cultural, ethnic, or racial concepts of beauty and may vary from the standards established in the North American dental community. When planning treatment for esthetic cases, smile design cannot be isolated from a comprehensive approach to patient care. Achieving a successful, healthy, and functional result requires an understanding of the interrelationship among all the supporting oral structures, including the muscles, bones, joints, gingival tissues, and occlusion. Gaining this understanding requires collecting all the data necessary to properly evaluate all the structures of the oral complex. The face, lips, gingival tissues, and teeth must all be examined, evaluated, and their overall appearance must be taken into consideration in order to create the perfect smile. The symmetry and harmony of the facial and dental characteristics are necessary for such a perfect smile. The teeth's location, color, and form all play a role in the equation. The importance of understanding that the anterior teeth play a crucial part in the patient's dental health and that form always follows function cannot be overstated. When assessing and arranging esthetic situations, a thorough approach may help patients have the smile that best complements their entire facial look and offers the added advantage of improved dental health. The objective of this article is to review and discuss criterion adopted by dental literature to technically analyze the smile, such as dental midline, smile line, dental exposure, negative space, dental proportion, and symmetry.

Journal ID : AMJ-17-12-2022-10935; Author : Sarah Gracia Manurung, Elizabeth Kangga, I Nyoman Ehrich Lister, Evelyn Angie,
Abstract : The skin is the largest organ of the body and is responsible for the protection of other tissue beneath it from environmental exposure, which made skin exposed to most environmental agents. UV light is one of the environmental agents that commonly damaged the skin, from causing dry skin to triggering the development of cancer. Torbangun (Coleus amboinicus Lour) leaves, which are commonly used as lactagogue agents in Bataknese society, are rich in flavonoid and phenolic contents. Both of these phytochemicals are strong anti-oxidant agents, which help maintain the skin's moisture level, and in turn, the skin's pH. This study aims to explore the potency of torbangun leaf extract cream as a skin moisturizer and pH controller. This study was an experimental study with a randomized pretest-posttest with a control group design. The experiment in this study involved 28 male rats (Rattus norvegicus) which were grouped into seven different groups with different interventions and the same induction of UVA and UVB exposure. Data of this study found that torbangun leaves extract cream with a concentration as low as 5% performed as well as Vaseline® Healthy White at maintaining skin moisture level (p<0.05), but show no difference in controlling the skin pH level compared to the base cream (p>0.05). It can be concluded that torbangun leaves extract cream can be utilized as a moisturizer or to prevent dry skin due to UVA and UVB exposure.

Journal ID : AMJ-17-12-2022-10934; Author : Zahra Rahimi, Mehrdad Masoudifar, Behzad Nazemroaya, Zahra Mirelahi Boldaji,
Abstract : Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is one of the most effective treatments for many psychiatric disorders. Despite being a well-established as a safe method, ECT has many side effects such as cardiovascular complications. This condition may need special intervention or management during ECT, especially in patients with known cardiovascular disease. Esmolol and Labetalol are two beta blockers that could apply to keep patients off these complications. The present study aimed to compare the effect of prophylactic administration of Esmolol and Labetalol on heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) in ECT. In this double-blind clinical trial study, 83 ECT candidate patients were divided into three groups randomly. Labetalol, Esmolol, and normal saline (as a placebo) were administered to groups first, second and third respectively. Collected data from HR and BP that had been recorded before, during, and after ECT were analyzed and interpreted. There were no significant different between three groups in mean of SBP, DBP and MBP. Mean of HR in Labetalol group and mean of SPO2 in Esmolol group were the lowest. Patients who were given normal saline had shorter recovery time with more tachycardia alternatively hypotension was observed in Labetalol and Esmolol groups further. Lower heart rate and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in Esmolol and Labetalol groups respectively, suggested taking advantage of these medicines, especially in cardiovascular patients who are candidates for ECT.
