Authors: S Mishra Siddharth , Dhotre Vibha 
Published: March 2021

Objective: Study aims to compare Auditory, Visual and Postural RT among middle aged type 2 diabetics and healthy individuals.
Materials and Methods: A Cross-Sectional Study which included 200 Participants that met inclusion and exclusion criteria, were divided into 2 groups. Diabetic group included 100 participants who were clinically diagnosed with type 2 Diabetes and healthy group insldued 100 healthy participants. Both the groups performed Auditory Reaction Time test (ART) and Visual reaction time test (VRT) using Inquisit 4.0 computer software, Ruler drop test (RDT), Wobble Board (WB) Test and Timed up and go test (TUGT) was performed.
Results: Statistical analysis (independent sample T-test) revealed a significant delay in VRT (P-value= 0.001), ART (P-value= 0.001), Wobble Board Test (P-value= 0.001) and TUGT (P value= 0.001) among diabetic group compared to healthy group. There is no significant difference in Ruler drop test (P-value= 0.919) among both the groups.
Conclusion: There was is a significant delay in RT among middle aged type 2 diabetic participants when compared to healthy participants. This is associated with reduced sensory stimuli from various systems and resulting in late response in diabetic group.

Published: March 2021

Nurses must have a Certificate of Registration and a Certificate of Competency in order to carry out nursing practices in Indonesia. One of the ways to measure nurse competency standards and obtain the Certificate of Competency is through the National Competency Exam. Identifying obstacles is one method used to evaluate the high number of alumni failures in the National Competency Exam. One obstacle that affects students is motivation. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between students motivation and their success when taking the National Competency Exam. The student subjects were alumni from batch 28 of the Nurse Profesion Program of Immanuel School of Health Sciences Bandung. 72 people were selected using the accidental sampling method. The instrument in this study was a student motivation questionnaire and the results of the National Competency Exam in October 2018 which had been tested for validity and reliability. Bivariate analysis was performed using the Chi Square statistical test with p ≤ 0.05. The results showed p-value of 0.561> 0.05, this suggests that there is no significant relationship between student motivation and the exam results. It is therefore suggested that nursing educators explore other factors which could produce poor scores when taking the National Competency Exam.

Authors: Clara Hertuida , Irawaty Dewi , Dahlia Debie 
Published: March 2021

Diabetes mellitus is a major health challenge associated with morbidity and mortality. Self-management behaviors are a critical part of diabetes disease management. Empowered or activated patients are more likely to practice better implementation of self-management behaviors. However, self-management behavior practice has not always been applied effectively among these populations. Further investigations are necessary to evaluate the status and factors that influence the practice of selfmanagement behaviors among patients with diabetes. The purpose of this research is to identify the relationship between self-efficacy and self-management behaviors of people with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. A cross-sectional research design was used in this study; 112 eligible people with type 2 Diabetes were recruited. Several questionnaires were used in this study including demographic and patient characteristics, Diabetes Management Self Efficacy Scale (DMSES), Summary Diabetes Self Care Activity (SDSCA), and Diabetes Knowledge (DKN) Scale. Data analysis was performed through univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analyzes. Most of the respondents studied were women, aged 34-74 years and the highest educational background was secondary education, 33.9% of respondents have a good level of knowledge, and 59.8% have good self-efficacy. The results show the significant relationship between self-efficacy and self-management behaviors (p-value < 0.001). The results of multivariate analysis showed that there was a relationship between self-efficacy and self-management behavior after being controlled by the knowledge and the duration of diabetes. Therefore, nurses need to improve the self-efficacy of people with type 2 Diabetes by providing education about the management of Diabetes, as well as supporting and motivating them.

Published: March 2021

Although mental health issues are not considered as a disorder that causes immediate death, this disorder can lead to an individual’s inability to work. Stress is experienced by everyone. Mental pressure if not managed properly can lead to mental disorders and despair (suicide). For this reason, management of stress is an important thing in human life. A total of 30 community members agreed to participate in this program. Most (80%) were women with a mean age of 32.54 (SD = 2.76). The most frequently used sources of information were mostly (86.7%) via the internet. Based on the results of the paired t-test, it was found that this program was effective in increasing knowledge, attitudes, and behavior about COVID-19 and stress (p value <0.001), with a difference value of 7.13 for knowledge, 5.02 for attitudes, and 4.24. for behavior, 3.45 for stress. This program is an approach based on the empowerment of health workers by utilizing existing applications for communication, namely social media and reminder systems. A subsequent program needs to be developed to increase the sustainability of this iniative, such as through integrated development and using technology as a medium of delivery and promotion.

Stress is a mode of adaptive response towards external demands, and prolonged exposure to stress is known to promote aging and neurodegeneration. Several therapies promote neuroprotection but are usually accompanied by adverse consequences. Traditional medicine has been proven as an effective alternative for promoting pharmacological health benefits such as wound healing, boosting memory function and reducing oxidative stress. Centella asiatica (CeA) has also gaining attention as an alternative option in promoting neuroprotective activities against neurodegenerative disorders and neuronal injuries. In this study, the neurodegenerative condition of rats was achieved using chronic stress through movement restraint and forced swimming for 21 consecutive days. Here, the neuroprotective properties of three different dosage of CeA (200 mg/kg/day, 400 mg/kg/day and 800 mg/kg/day) was evaluated using metabolomics approach. The administration of CeA shown distinction between untreated group and treated group; and reducing the effect of chronic stress in rats. The extract also demonstrated a significant elevation in several metabolites (lactate, isoleucine, proline, methionine, valine, leucine and glutamine) in rats treated with CeA, particularly in rats administered with 800 mg/kg of CeA. These significant metabolites play important roles in variety of biochemical function of the brain such as the synthesis of protein, energy metabolism, synthesis of neurotransmitter, protection against oxidative stress and compartmentalisation of glutamate. The results of this study may contribute towards greater understanding of molecular mechanism of CeA in promoting neuroprotective properties against neurodegeneration from exposure to chronic stress.

Published: March 2021

Abstract

Background: Changes in the full blood count of patients with tuberculosis have been studied previously, but the effect of co-infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) remains to be explored.

Objective: To evaluate the changes in full blood count in patients with tuberculosis in an evolving HIV era.

Methods: Prospective study of consecutively recruited patients (N = 125) with microbiologically or histologically proven tuberculosis admitted at Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital between October 2017 and July 2018.

Results: Anaemia was found in 60.7% of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) and in 61.1% of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis (ETB) patients. ETB patients had lower white cell counts (WCCs) and lower neutrophil counts than PTB patients, (5.59 (3.6–8.1) vs 7.96 (5.27–10.34), p = 0.002) and (4.2 (2.1–7.0) vs 5.5 (3.3–8.4), p = 0.079), respectively. Compared to the HIV-seronegative patients, HIV co-infected PTB patients had lower WCC, lymphocyte counts and neutrophil counts, (6.9 (4.8–9.7) vs 9.4 (8.6–11.4), p = 0.0037), (0.7 (0.46–1.31) vs 1.51 (1.13–2.05), p = 0.0051), and (4.7 (2.8–7.7) vs 8.5 (5.9–10.1), p = 0.0106), respectively. Patients co-infected with HIV on combination antiretroviral therapy and tuberculosis had higher levels of WCC, (7.9 (4.6–10.9) vs 5.8 (4.3–8.3), p = 0.0465).

Conclusion: Anaemia is the most common manifestation of tuberculosis. This study highlighted the reactive nature of PTB haematological abnormalities compared to ETB with higher WCCs in both HIV-seropositive and HIV-seronegative patients. Co-infection with HIV was associated with blunting of some of the previously described haematological manifestations among patients with PTB.
