Published: February 2017

Background: The renal parenchymal diseases were common pathological conditions that involved the renal parenchyma. They cause damage to interstitia and glomerula and result in renal failure if left undiagnosed and untreated. The objective of the study was to assess the kidneys in renal parenchymal diseases in Sudanese patients.Methods: This cross-sectional study involved two hundred and six patients confirmed with renal parenchymal diseases. All the patients were scanned using ultrasonography. The echogenicity, kidney size, surface and thickness of renal cortex were assessed and the related abdominal findings.Results: A total of 206 patients diagnosed and confirmed renal parenchymal diseases had been selected for the study. The kidneys were normal in size in 47.10% the cases, 30.58% were small and 19.42% were large. The echogenicity of the kidneys was increased in 93.69% and normal echogenicity observed in 5.34% of the cases. The renal cortical thickness was normal in 65.05% and thin in 33.50% of the cases. There were no obstructive changes in the renal pelvicalyceal system in 86.41%, while dilatation observed only in 7.28% of the cases. Abdominal findings were observed in 65.05% of the cases. The most common abdominal findings were 26 cases of ascites, 10 with pleural effusion, 6 with benign prostatic hypertrophy and 4 with liver cirrhosis.Conclusions: Sonographic evaluation of kidneys in renal parenchymal diseases is very important in diagnosis and management. Pleural effusion, ascites and liver cirrhosis were the most common systematic findings accompanied with renal parenchymal diseases.

Published: February 2017

Background: The leaves of Lawsonia inermis (henna) is widely used as cosmetic agent for body art to colour the hair, skin and nails, and hence is considered as a candidate stain for tissues. Lawsonia inermis leaves contain a pigment which is the source of red-brown dye. The application of natural dyes for staining biological tissues will reduce cost and is more environmentally friendly.Methods: The natural dye Lawson (2-hydroxy-1,4-napthaquinone) was extracted from the dry leave of Henna using two solvents (distilled water and ethanol). The two extracts were formulated into various staining solutions at different concentrations. The staining solutions were modified with potassium alum and phenol. Liver sections were stained using haematoxylin and eosin method alongside various modifications of the plant extract as counterstain at different timing and temperature conditions.Results: The solutions were found to be acidic in nature and stained the cytoplasm golden brown with a well-defined cytoplasmic boundary of hepatocytes. The best staining effect was obtained with 1% concentration at room temperature for 10 minutes. This provides a measure of contrast between the nuclei, cytoplasm and connective tissue that is adequate for diagnosis. Phenol used as an accentuator has been found to improve the staining but caused swelling of cell. Mordanting with potassium alum did not cause swelling but did not give the kind of resolution as obtained with Phenol. Use of the henna extract at 60oC gave the poorest result which showed that high temperature adversely affect the staining reaction by presenting almost the same color to the structures irrespective of the solvent or concentration.Conclusions: This findings suggest that Henna leave extract can be used as a suitable cytoplasmic connective tissue stain.

Introduction: The maternal mortality remains high in developing countries such as Indonesia. Three most common reasons for this incidence are hemorrhage, infection, and eclampsia. Some of these conditions can be infl uenced by Iron Defi ciency Anemia (IDA). A lot of programs for nutrition have been provided by Indonesian government, but the nutritional condition of pregnant women still be big problem in Indonesia. This study explored the nutritional status of pregnant village women in Banten Province, Indonesia and assessed interventions in dealing with nutrition problems among pregnant women especially in the rural area. Method: The design was a longitudinal descriptive study with operational study by empowering village midwives and cadre to intervene pregnant women nutrition in rural area. The measurements were focused on the rate of anemia, body mass index (BMI), and weight. Three stages were applied in this study with community development as intervention. Result: This study reported some changes in the midwife practises after Intervertion, while cadres more talkative when explaining about nutrition after intervention. However, the intervention did not affect the overall nutritional status of the pregnant women and the intervention was not able to influence the community’s health in the medium term in the intervention villages. Analysis and discussion: This study recommend the government and educational institutions to improve the competencies of health care providers especially in communication skill. Keywords: Community development, Indonesia, nutritional status, pregnant women, rural nursing.

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) was a degenerative disease which often found in the community. Diabetes was caused by unhealthy habits, such as overeating, lack of exercise, and stress. The purpose of this study was to identify selfmanagement as one of the interventions that can improve treatment compliance in patients with diabetes.Methods: This study was used quasy experiments non randomized pretest-posttest design. Samples were 20 families who lived with type 2 diabetes patient. Variable independent was self management intervention and variable dependent was patient complience. Data were collected by using interview, food recall, and observation on behavioral change. Data then analyzed by using paired t-test with α≤0.05.Results: The results had showed that before intervention only 3 (15 %) respondents who obey diabetes diet, then increase to 19 (95 %) respondents after intervention with p value=0.000. Patient’s medication compliance also increased, from 6 (30 % ) respondents before intervention to 20 (100%) respondents after intervention, with p value= 0.000. Patient compliance on exercise also increase from 2 (10%) respondents before intervention, become 19 (95%) respondents after intervention, with p value=0.000.Concluison: Self management intervention could improve patient’s knowledge, problem-solving skills, and self-effi cacy. Self management should be done after the patient had understand their disease and realized the importance of self-care. Community health nurses were expected to implement self management as one of nursing intervention, so that patient compliance on their treatment can be increased.

Published: February 2017

The technological utility of enzymes for delignification can be increased by using ionic liquid to open more accessible surface area for biomass transformation into bio-based products. The present paper demonstrates application of ionic liquid (IL) [emim][DEP] 1-ethyl-3 methyllimidazolium-diethyl phospate for empty fruit bunch (EFB) pretreatment process followed by enzymatic delignification by using Laccase. It was found that [emim][DEP] increased the performance of the enzyme laccase and henced higher cellulose rich materials, whereas also reduced the lignin content in the EFB. The lowest lignin content obtained from IL-laccase treated EFB was approximately 17.92%, lower than the lignin content in the untreated EFB. Both treated and untreated EFB were characterized in chemical and physical properties by using scanning electron microscope (SEM), fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA/DTG) to observe the changes resulted from the pretreatment.

Published: February 2017

Telah dilakukan penelitian tentang hidrolisa bagas tebu menggunakan asam asetat sebagai katalis. Sebanyak 30 gram dihidrolisa dalam 300ml air yang mengandung katalis asam menggunakan asetat sebesar 7 sampai 9% v/v dengan variabel waktu dan temperatur hidrolisa selama 1 sampai 4 jam dan 80oC sampai 103oC pada kondisi atmosferik menggunakan reaktor tipe batch. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh temperatur dan waktu hidrolisa, serta konsentrasi katalis asam asetat terhadap perolehan furfural. Kemudian untuk menemukan kondisi paling efisien untuk memproduksi furfural menggunakan Response Surface Methodology (RSM) dengan Software Design Expert 7.0.0. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dengan penambahan waktu dan temperatur hidrolisa akan meningkatkan perolehan furfural. Perolehan asam asetat juga meningkat rata-rata hingga 2 kali dari konsentrasi asam asetat awal. Hal ini terjadi karena pemutusan gugus acetyl dari fraksi hemiselulosa pada bagas tebu. Perolehan kondisi optimum yakni pada waktu dan temperatur hidrolisa 2 jam dan 103oC, konsentrasi katalis 9%, dengan konsentrasi furfural 4,10 mg/ml dan konsentrasi asam asetat 2,62 mmol/ml.
