Stunting is a significant public health concern in Indonesia, particularly in rural areas like Pangandaran Regency. This study investigates the role of Community Health Cadres (CHCs) in reducing stunting in Ciliang Village, Pangandaran Regency, West Java Province. Employing a qualitative case study approach, the research involved in-depth interviews with 50 CHCs and data collection from 200 households with children under five. The study found that CHCs played a crucial role in improving nutritional knowledge among parents, promoting balanced dietary practices, and ultimately reducing stunting prevalence. CHC-led interventions led to a significant increase in parental awareness of essential nutrients and a marked improvement in dietary diversity. Consequently, stunting rates among children under five decreased from 25% to 18% within a year. However, CHCs face cultural barriers, resource limitations, and sustainability issues. The study underscores the importance of comprehensive training programs, adequate resources, and consistent funding to support CHC activities. Integrating CHC programs into broader health and nutrition policies is recommended to ensure these successful interventions' long-term sustainability and scalability. This research contributes valuable insights into the effectiveness of community-based approaches in addressing stunting and improving child health outcomes in rural Indonesia.

The consumption of tomatoes has been associated with diminishing the risk of several lethal diseases, e.g., heart attack and cancer. This is because tomato contains high antioxidants that have been shown to protect against oxidative damage in numerous empirical and epidemiological studies. Considering the health benefits, more emphasis should be given to produce organic tomatoes. Tomatoes have been ranked as the most important fruit and vegetable in Western diets as essential source of antioxidants such as lycopene, β-carotene, phenols, vitamin E, and vitamin C. Environmental conditions and agricultural practices are key factors that affect the quantities of these compounds available in tomato. Therefore, controlling the environmental conditions, such as water availability, temperature, light, saline soil, and agricultural practices (fertilization practices, harvesting, and food storage) are valuable tools to enhance the nutritional value of tomato fruits organically. Although, the quantitative and qualitative contents of health-promoting compounds in vegetables and fruits depend on their genetic predispositions. Agricultural practices and different environmental condition have broad effects on the nutraceutical compounds. Thus, this present study emphasizes on enhancing tomato nutrition through improved agricultural practices and optimized farming, especially in saline and water-deficit conditions. This organic-oriented strategy may counteract the scepticism caused by genetically modiﬁed tomatoes (GMOs) and will prompt further exploration in future studies.Keywords: Organic grown tomato; Antioxidants; Nutritional values; Salinity; Water deficit; Temperature; Agricultural practices; Fertilization

Published: February 2025

Background: Ginseng (Panax ginseng) has garnered considerable attention due to its medicinal properties. This study aimed to assess the protective effects of ginseng ethanolic extract against chlorine-induced toxicity in female rabbits. .Methods: Thirty-two female rabbits were randomly divided into four groups: a negative control group receiving chlorine-free water, a positive control group receiving tap water with chlorine (0.05 ppm/L), a group exposed to chlorine (5 ppm/L) in water, and a group exposed to chlorine (5 ppm/L) along with ethanolic ginseng extract (200 mg/kg body weight). Treatment lasted for four weeks.Results: revealed that oral exposure to chlorine led to oxidative stress, evidenced by elevated levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and liver enzymes (AST & ALT), as well as suppressed blood parameters (PCV, HB, and RBC count), and histological liver alterations compared to the normal control group. Conversely, administration of ginseng extracts alongside chlorine for four weeks reduced MDA levels and liver enzyme activity while enhancing blood parameters, accompanied by decreased inflammatory histological changes.Conclusion: These findings suggest that ginseng extract possesses potent antioxidant activity, mitigating chlorine-induced toxicity and its associated pathophysiological consequences. Keywords: Ginseng; Chlorine; MDA; Liver enzymes; Blood parameters

Published: February 2025

Background: Organophosphorus pesticides (OP) are a diverse group of compounds. Extensive application of these chemicals in Sudan increases the risk of food and water contamination. We aimed to identify the occupational hazard on sellers and consumers resulting from exposure to organophosphorus through measurement of blood (AChE) enzyme activity.Methods: This is a community-based study conducted at the Khartoum vegetable market, where 219 sellers and consumers were consented and recruited consequently. Data on demographics and pesticides exposure was collected and blood for acetylcholinesterase enzyme (AChE) activity was withdrawn and tested in a Lovibond machine.Results: 139 (63.5%) of the participants were males with a mean age of 41.6 ± 12.9 years. Educational levels: 83 (37.9%) elementary school, 52 (23.8%) middle and high school, 54 (24.6%) college and above, and 30 (13.7%) were illiterate. More than half 129 (58.9%) were consumers and the remaining 90 (41.1%) were sellers. Univariate analysis revealed sellers having a significantly more proportion of impaired acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity compared to consumers, [33 (36.6%) versus 9 (7%), p-value 0.001]. Moreover, the mean (AChE) activity for whole respondents was lower than the physiologic mean of unexposed people (82.3% versus 87.5%). Independent t-test revealed significantly impaired (AChE) activity among sellers (74.9% versus 87.5%), (P-value = 0.001).Conclusion: People exposed to agricultural chemical pesticide residues in vegetables and fruits have impaired (AChE), with a significantly lower rate of the enzyme among products’ sellers in reference to consumers and to the physiological values of unexposed. A larger community-based study evaluating exposures to pesticides is highly recommended.Keywords: Agricultural Chemicals; Organophosphorus Pesticides; Chemical Residues; Chemical Contamination; Acetylcholinesterase Enzyme; Sudan

Background: Wound healing through second intention was prone to issues. As a result, there is a high need in veterinary medicine for medicines that hasten the healing of secondary wounds. These studies demonstrate the effect of autogenic, allogenic and heterogenic PRP on healing of wounds.Methods: Six rabbits weighing (1.8-2.5 kg), blood samples were collected from the rabbits and goats. Skin markings of 1cm in diameter were made on dorsal midlines. These wounds were allocated into four groups, control, autogenic, allogenic and heterogenic PRP treated groups. Planimetric monitoring to determine the diameter (mm) and histologically were performed at 3,7,15, and 21 days after injury.Results: Clinically, on day fifteen there were improvements in wound contraction in Auto and Allo PRP groups, better than control. There was slight improvement in the heteroPRP group. After 21 days of wounding, the Auto and AlloPRP group’s wounds were completely closed. Histopathologically, after 1 week, the AutoPRP and AlloPRP groups revealed scab formation. However, in the XenoPRP and control groups the thick scab covers the incision line. After 2nd week of post wounding, the two treated groups were nearly similar compared with the XenoPRP and control group including scab detachment. At the end of the 3rd week, The NS group revealed scab formation partially detached. While all treated showed a complete regeneration of the epidermis layer, newly formed hair follicles beneath the regenerated epidermis layer.Conclusion: For the promotion of wound repair processes, autogenic additionally allogenicPRP therapy may be a straightforward, affordable, and successful option.Keywords: Platelet rich plasma; Rabbit; Skin; Wound

Published: February 2025

Background: The pandemic caused by novel coronavirus has caused disaster worldwide and impacted the clinical settings with huge burden. The virus presented with diverse patterns of severity and the gold standard testing for corona virus was real-time PCR.Methods: This study aimed to understand the impact of the coronavirus healthcare crisis by examining SARS-CoV-2 prevalence and viral load patterns. A substantial population sample from Lahore's diagnostic center was analyzed. A total of 17,260 samples were received out of which 1548 samples were meticulously analyzed to study the distribution of SARS-CoV-2 patients by age group and gender between October 2021 and December 2022. CT ranges in positive cases were examined across various age groups. Descriptive statistics for viral load, factoring in gender, age, and vaccination status, were reported. To comprehensively assess the influence of gender and age on viral load, a multivariate analysis employing two-way ANOVA was conducted, yielding valuable insights.Results: Among the sampled individuals, the positive patients (n=1250, 80.7%) were predominantly male (mean age 36.08 years), while females (n=298, 19.3%) had a mean age of 37.69. The positivity prevalence was 8.96% with CT values spanning 12 to 35. Mainly, cases occurred in CT ranges 26-30 (29.97%) and 31-35 (28.43%). Males showed higher mean viral load (25.88 ± 5.75) than females (23.25 ± 4.94). Age groups didn't significantly alter viral load; vaccination showed no significant viral load association. Gender and age collectively influenced viral load dynamics per multiple logistic regression.Conclusion: The study emphasizes the significant SARS-CoV-2 burden and the necessity for sustained surveillance and prevention. Gender and age impacted viral load dynamics, while vaccination's direct influence was inconclusive. Investigating the intricate relationship between gender, age, viral load, and outcomes is warranted for improved epidemiological comprehension and effective prevention strategies.Keywords: SARS-CoV-2; Viral load; Prevalence; Vaccination; Public health; Infection dynamic

Published: February 2025

Background: Cisplatin (Cis) is the primary and most effective chemotherapy drug for treating head and neck cancer. The side effect of cisplatin therapy is toxicity in the cochlea. The most active chemical in Nigella sativa (habbatussauda) is thymoquinone (TQ). The protective effects of thymoquinone antioxidants against oxidative stress caused by cisplatin in the cochlea of Wistar rats still need to be better understood. The purpose of this study is to ascertain if thymoquinone antioxidants may protect Wistar rat cochlea from oxidative damage caused by cisplatin.Methods: We divided 24 healthy male rats into four groups for this experimental animal study (Rattus norvegicus). The researchers named the group that received cisplatin alone the Cis group. The group given cisplatin and thymoquinone at 25 mg/kg/day was called the Cis+TQ25 group. The group given cisplatin and thymoquinone at 50 mg/kg/day was called the Cis+TQ50 group. The group that gets nothing is called the control group. On day 10, we will test the expression of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in rat cochlear tissue using an immunohistochemistry examination.Results: The Cis group significantly decreased the expression of SOD in cochlear tissue (26.64±5.02) compared to the control group (64.18±5.93) with a p = 0.000. The Cis+TQ25 group (51.95±2.98) and the Cis+TQ50 group (56.19±5.43) significantly increase SOD expression in cochlear tissue compared to the Cis group (26.64±5.02) with a p = 0.009 and a p = 0.002.Conclusion: Thymoquinone decreases oxidative stress caused by cisplatin by upregulating SOD expression in Wistar rat cochlea.Keywords: Antioxidants; Cisplatin; Cochlea; Oxidative stress; Rats; Thymoquinone
