Abstract : Complications of diabetes are commonly found including the decreased sexual ability for diabetic patients. A plant that is efficacious as an aphrodisiac and is known by people in South Sulawesi is the sanrego plant (Lunacia amara). The aim of this study is to determine the aphrodisiac effect of the ethanol extract of sanrego stems on diabetic rats induced by a high-fat diet. The research method was the post-test method by extracting sanrego stems with ethanol solvent, Wistar rats were fed a high-fat diet for 24 weeks, then HbA1C levels were measured. Rats that experienced insulin resistance continued to the research stage of the aphrodisiac effects of Sanrego which employed four male rats and 16 female rats for animal testing which were divided into four treatment groups. Each group consisted of one male rat and four female rats. Group I was given 1% Na-CMC (negative control), group II was given sildenafil citrate suspension (positive control), group III was given 100 mg/kg BW sanrego stem extract suspension, and group IV was given 150 mg/kg BW sanrego stem extract suspension. It was given orally for seven days and observations were conducted to see how many times the male rats had coitus after 4 hours of treatment. The results of statistical analysis using ANOVA with Duncan's advanced test showed that the administration of ethanol extract of sanrego stem at a dose of 100 mg/kg and 150 mg/kg BW had an aphrodisiac effect compared to Na-CMC as a negative control. Meanwhile, the ethanol extract of sanrego stem at a dose of 100 mg/kg BW and 150 mg /kg BW showed that there was a highly significant difference with sildenafil citrate.

Journal ID : AMJ-16-11-2022-10799; Author : Dr.Krishna Prakash Joshi,
Abstract : Having an open line of communication between doctors and their patients is crucial to provide excellent care. The importance of include lessons on how to effectively communicate as part of a student's undergraduate medical education cannot be overstated. As part of its mission to improve the quality of medical education in India, MCI/NMC planned to include the AETCOM module to the UG curriculum in 2019. This study's goals were to create, test, and refine the CS module by using ADDIE instructional framework for teaching first-year MBBS students effective communication skills. The current educational interventional study, which used a mixed-method design, was carried out among 100 first-year MBBS students. In order to design, validate, and implement the CS training module based on the AETCOM module, the ADDIE model was used. The CSAS Scale was used to evaluate students' mental preparedness to study CS, while Kirkpatrick's Levels 1 and 2 were used to determine their degree of competence & Visual Anthropac programme analysed qualitative data. Both the positive (4.19 1.03) and negative (2.42 1.24) CSAS component mean scores were statistically significant. The pre- and post-test mean scores for the knowledge component were 4.19 1.03 and 11.64 2.80, respectively (P .05), and cognitive maps were created to establish a causal connection between the key elements of the evaluations' feedback. While students' mean knowledge and skill ratings improved dramatically in the CS category after the first year of MBBS, they still have room for growth in areas like communication and leadership. The students' collective outlook on the importance of communication training improved.

COMPARISON OF TWO DIFFERENT NUTRITION SCREENING TOOLS TO IDENTIFY THE RISK OF HOSPITAL MALNUTRITION AMONG HOSPITALIZED CHILDREN IN INDONESIA
Journal ID : AMJ-16-11-2022-10798; Author : Rake Andara, Winra Pratita, Gema Nazri Yanni,
Abstract : Malnutrition among hospitalized children is often misdiagnosed and untreated. This study aimed to compare STRONGkids and PYMS screening tools for determining the risk of malnutrition in hospitalized children. This cross-sectional study was conducted among patients aged 2-to-18 years in tertiary-care hospitals in Indonesia. Demographic data, illnesses, and nutritional assessment based on STRONGkids and PYMS methods were measured within 24-48 hours of admission. The sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values of STRONGkids and PYMS for detecting hospital malnutrition were evaluated, with the percentage of weight loss between admission and discharge standing as the gold standard. Out of 48 patients, 54.2% were male with a median age of 11 years. Hematological disease comprised 52.1% of the study’s participants with hospital stays ranging from 3 to 22 days. The prevalence of hospital malnutrition was 25%. The accuracy level of STRONGkids was 70.8% in detecting hospital malnutrition, whereas PYMS was 52%. The sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values (PPV and NPV) of STRONGkids for detecting hospital malnutrition were 41.7%, 80.6%, 41.7%, and 80.6%, respectively, whereas PYMS had 83.3% sensitivity, 41.7% specificity, 32.3% PPV, and 88.2% NPV. STRONGkids performed better than PYMS in predicting the probability of hospital malnutrition. Our findings support the use of STRONGkids as a nutritional risk screening tool in hospitalized children in Indonesia.

The Potent of Radical Scavenging, Toxicity, and Apoptosis of Various Fractions of Marine Sponge Axinella aruensis from Kangean Islands
Journal ID : AMJ-16-11-2022-10797; Author : Mohammad Farid Rahman, Aulanni’am, Masruri, Akhmad Sabarudin, Siti Mariyah Ulfa, Edwin Setiawan,
Abstract : A sponge of the family Axinellidae is a marine invertebrate with plenty of medical potential applications. The present study aimed to investigate the antioxidative, toxicity, and apoptotic effects of Axinella aruensis extracts and fractions, particularly from the Indonesian Kangean Islands. The sponge was extracted with methanol, then partitioned with hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol, and water. Each fraction was observed for its free radical scavenging properties to DPPH, toxicity, and apoptosis to HeLa and MCF-7 cell lines. Experimental results show that the ethyl acetate fraction provides the highest activity than the methanolic extract and other fractions. The ethyl acetate fraction gives a strong DPPH radical scavenging with an IC50 value of 27.724 ± 0.029 g/mL and is toxic to Artemia salina with an LC50 value of 24.711 ± 0.478 g/mL. Cytotoxic activity of ethyl acetate fraction against HeLa and MCF-7 cells provide IC50 values of 89.990 ± 2.133 g/mL and 94.143 ± 0.720 g/mL, and induced apoptosis in both cells with IC50 values of 96.659 ± 0.023 g/mL and 93.474 ± 0.013 g/mL. The butanol fraction also showed intense activity, which was relatively comparable to the methanolic extract, although both activities were lower than that of the ethyl acetate fraction. Based on the metabolites fingerprinting analysis results, the ethyl acetate fraction consists of brominated compounds suspected of strongly influencing its anti-cancer properties. The sponge A. aruensis is undergoing further analysis to isolate and characterize the active constituents in each fraction, and thus can be developed for potential anticancer treatment.

Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) Metabolite as a Potential Cell Therapy for Pseudomonas aeruginosa Keratitis
Journal ID : AMJ-16-11-2022-10796; Author : Dimas Budiharto, Ismi Zuhria, Nurwasis,
Abstract : Pseudomonas aeruginosa keratitis is the most common eye infection, that develops very rapidly and can lead to endophthalmitis and corneal perforation. Corneal wound healing process is determined by the balance of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines. Interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1α) and Transforming Growth Factor-β (TGF-β) as “master regulator” cytokines. Mesenchymal stem cells can maintain the equilibrium of these two inflammatory cytokines. The study was to analyze the effect of MSC metabolite to the expression of IL-1α and TGF-β. This study was an animal experimental study. The mice were randomly divided into 3 groups (no treatment, antibiotic and antibiotic-MSC metabolite group). Each group consisted of 6 mice. Keratitis was induced by 5 µl Pseudomonas aeruginosa suspension containing 104 CFU/ml. Isolation of limbus mesenchymal stem cells and cell culture were conducted. The Immunoreactive Score (IRS) and immunohistochemical staining were used to assess IL-1α and TGF- β expression. The mean expression of IL-1α in the antibiotic group with Immunoreactive Score (IRS) was 5.03 ± 3.03, while in the antibiotic + MSC metabolite group it was 4.5 ± 2.51. TGF-β expression in the antibiotic group obtained a mean score of 4.26 ± 2.31, while in the combination group of antibiotics and MSC metabolites the mean score was 2.8 ± 1.30. There was a decrease of the IL-1α and TGF- β expression in the group that was added to the MSC metabolite. The Independent T-Test showed that there was no significant difference between the antibiotic group and the antibiotic + MSC metabolite group p>0.05 (p=0.673 in IL-1α and p = 0.143 in TGF-β expression). Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) metabolite is a potential cell therapy for corneal wound healing of Pseudomonas aeruginosa keratitis, but further studies are still needed with more sample.

Journal ID : AMJ-15-11-2022-10792; Author : Mohammad Abdulmohsin Jebur,
Abstract : Glandula thyreoidea (Thyroid gland), incidentalomas in the community are common, mostly in females and old peoples. In most instances the finding of nodularity is accidental and insignificant because only part of them is of abnormal outgrowth. In spite of negligible chance of abnormality, it is important to isolate and discriminate this probability. The purpose of this study is to discover the presence of nodularity in a randomized sample of causalities referred to the Medico-Legal Directorate at Baghdad, associated with many features in the community such as age, gender, race. etc, and the samples were examined by gross and microscopic analyses respectively. Specimens were gathered from 50 necropsies in the Medico-Legal Directorate at Baghdad. The specimens were underwent routine histopathological approach. The study declared that 50% of the samples with nodularity findings were dormant in the patients' lives without diagnosis, with predominance in the women 14 (66.66%) with average age 65 years compared with men 11 (37.93%) and average age 60 years. Three (12%) of the samples showed carcinomatous features.

Journal ID : AMJ-15-11-2022-10791; Author : Haerani Rasyid, Agussalim Bukhari, Nur Alim, Natsir Djide, Sartini, Rusman Hasanuddin,
Abstract : The use of plants as a source of natural antioxidants has been widely studied. One of the plants that have the potential as natural antioxidants is beligo (Benincasa hispida (Thunb.) Cogn.). The part of the beligo fruit that is commonly used is the seeds. Empirically beligo has been widely used by Indonesian people as a medicinal plant. Indonesian people use beligo as a fever reducer, pain and typhoid treatment, presumably based on its phenolic content. Phenolics have a role in antioxidant activity. Ethanol 70% is a solvent that has been proven to be widely used to extract total plant phenolic compounds. This study aims to determine the phytochemical content, phenolic content and antioxidant potential of ethanol 70% extract of beligo (Benincasa hispida (Thunb.) Cogn.) seeds. Samples were extracted by maceration using ethanol 70%. Qualitative analysis of phytochemical compounds using specific reagents, analysis of total phenolic content using the Folin–Ciocalteu method at a wavelength of 764 and an antioxidant activity test using the DPPH method at a wavelength of 515 nm. Ethanol extract of Beligo (Benincasa hispida (Thunb.) Cogn. seeds positive contains alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolics and saponins. The results of the analysis of total phenolic content and antioxidant activity test showed that ethanol 70% extract had a total phenolic content of 56.8 mg GAE/g extract with an IC50 value of 46,037 ppm. Ethanol 70% extract has a very strong category of antioxidant activity so it has the potential to be used in the treatment of antibacterial, cardiovascular and anti-inflammatory diseases.
