National HIV patient participation in receiving antiretroviral (ARV) therapy is 33%. HIV patients undergoing ARV therapy complain of the emergence of therapeutic toxicity. The purpose of this study was to determine the immunodeficiency stage (CD4 cell count) and degree of toxicity (hematological and clinical chemistry values). This type of research is descriptive research. Data collection was carried out using the cross-sectional method. Data collection involved 32 HIV patients who received ARV therapy services in KRT Setjonegoro Regional Hospital. The study subjects were determined non-randomly with the criteria: having undergone controlled therapy >6 months and aged ≥15 years. The exclusion criteria for this study were patients referred out of care during the study. This research activity has received approval (ethical clearance) Research Ethics Commission of the Faculty of Medicine, Gajah Mada University. The results of this study for the characteristics of patients as many as 19 people (59.40%) are male and 13 people (40.60%) are female. Age of HIV patients 18-44 years as many as 29 people (90.60%) and 45-59 years as many as 3 people (9.40%). Education of elementary school patients as many as 13 people (40.60%), secondary schools 14 people (43.80%) and colleges 5 people (15.60%). Clinical stage of the patient, stadium 1 were 14 people (43.80%), stage 2 were 4 people (12.50%), stage 3 were 2 people (37.50%) and stage 4 were 2 people (6.30%). The efficacy of patients with CD4 parameters showed 17 patients (53.00%) patients did not experience immunodeficiency and mild toxicity experienced by 2 patients (6.30%) HIV who received antiretroviral therapy
This research aimed to identify, to compare, and to analyse the correlation of the taxonomic structure of 4th grade elementary student’s electronic textbooks which referred to the 2013 curriculum. The object of this research was the text books published in 2014 and 2017, focusing on the test section. Taxonomic identification was carried out based on Bloom taxonomy, including six levels of operational words, such as remembering (C1), understanding (C2), application (C3), analysis (C4), evaluation (C5), and creation (C6). Identification was carried out for all taxonomic groups. Data analysis was carried out descriptively. Comparison between text books was analysed statistically using chi-square test, while correlation analysis was carried out by Pearson’s correlation. The result showed that the 2014 text book had more question items than the 2017 text book with 1061 items and 688 items respectively. There were total of 3260 and 1756 taxonomic content respectively, resulting in average number of 3.1 and 2.6 taxonomic items in each question. Both text books showed similar trend in numbers of taxonomic items as the increase of taxonomic levels. Statistical data analysis showed that there was significant difference of taxonomic structure between the 2014 and 2017 text books. Significant differences were obtained from the C1 and C3 levels, whereas the proportion of C1 in the 2017 text book was significantly lower while the proportion of C3 was significantly higher. However, correlation analysis showed that the taxonomic structure of both text books was strongly correlated
The ethyl acetate extract of Musa paradisiaca L. leaves contains quercetin. The main problem of quercetin associated with oral administration is its poor aqueous solubility. Nano emulsion is drug delivery system that it was prove to enhancement the solubility and permeation of lipophilic drugs. The research aimed to investigate nano emulsion as carrier of extract to improve the activity of antioxidant and antibacterial. The nano emulsion of extract was formulated by various concentration of Tween-80 and PEG-400, and it was optimized by Factorial Design on Design Expert®7 software based on desirability value. Design using response droplet size, zeta potential, and pH. The optimum formula selected was tested for physical stability and activity. Physical stability was tested by centrifugation and cyling test methods. The antioxidant and antibacterial activity of fo and extract were determined by DPPH and Kirby Bauer methods, respectively, and its analyzed by independent T-test. The optimum formula was obtained by 15% Tween-80 and 10% PEG-400 with desirability value 82,4%. It has pH 6.4, droplet size 15.3 nm, a polydisperse index (PI) 0.012, a zeta potential -23.3 mV. Physical stability test shows the formula does not experience syneresis, separation, creaming or cracking. The independent T-test showed that nano emulsion significantly improved antioxidant and antibacterial activities against S. Aureus and E. Coli with p value 0.001, 0.003, and 0.000 respectively. The results prove that Nano emulsion is potential for improving lipophilic drugs
Hypertension is a silent killer disease, the incidence of hypertension is increasing, especially in menopause women. Hypnosis and acupressure are non-pharmaceutical techniques to treat hypertension, but the combination of the two therapies has never been done. The aim of this research is to develop a digital hypnopressure device and its effect on hypertension in menopause women. The research used an experimental study with the stages of developing digital hypnopressure devices and the application on menopause women. The sample size was 40 people with purposive, 20 people as the intervention group and 20 people as the control group. The intervention is carried out for 30 minutes. Analysis of data with Mann Whitney U test. The results show that the creation of a digital hypnopressure device which is a combination of five-finger hypnosis and acupressure therapy. There were differences in systolic and diastolic blood pressure between the intervention group and the control group. Therefore, digital hypnopressure devices are effective for lowering blood pressure
In this study, a human face recognition technique based on statistical features using a neural network technique is presented. In the pre-processing stage image edges have been detected. Subsequently, a new technique for two-dimension gray image to one-dimension vector is proposed. Then, seven features have been extracted depending on statistical analysis. This work describes is based on four statistical characteristics (mean, standard deviation, skewness, kurtosis) for feature extraction. These features can address image capture problems because it is main tasks are not affected by the rotation, zoom, and transfer of images taken from before the control cameras. After that, the image details have been extracted using wavelet transformations. Elman Neural Network (ENN) is used in this study for face identification. Finally, the proposed study has been implemented using MATLAB R2013a and Microsoft Excel database to preserve the information of the required people, this can be achieved by utilizing the principle of distance between facial points
