Prediksi Risiko Malnutrisi Berdasarkan Nutritional Risk Score (Nrs) Pada Anak Thalasemia Di Kota Semarang

Malnutrisi pada anak thalassemia menyebabkan meningkatnya angka kesakitan dan kematian, meningkatkan risiko terjadinya komplikasi, dan memperpanjang masa rawat inap di rumah sakit serta juga memengaruhi pertumbuhan dan perkembangan anak, terutama Balita (Secker, 2012). Pasien dengan thalasemia sangat penting untuk dilakukan pengkajian nutrisi (Fung, 2010). Nutrisi yang optimal sangat penting untuk kasus thalasemia sebagai modalitas dalam pengobatan jangka panjang dan untukmencegah gangguan nutrisi, gangguan perkembangan, pubertas, dan defisiensi imun. Responden dalam penelitian ini adalah anak penderita thalassemia di sebuah rumah sakit di Kota Semarang dengan jumlah 40 anak. Metode penelitian yang dilakukan adalah deskriptif. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan wawancara, observasi langsung, data rekam medis yang berbasis instrumen Nutritional Risk Score (NRS). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar status nutrisi responden berada dalam kategori normal yaitu 30 responden (75%) dan sebagian besar risiko malnutrisi berdasarkan NRS padaresponden berada dalam kategori risiko tinggi malnutrisi yaitu 22 responden (55%). Penelitian selanjutnya perlu mengembangkan penelitian lebih lanjut tentang korelasi prediksi risiko malnutrisi terhadap pemenuhan kebutuhan nutrisi anak thalassemia

Efikasi Herbisida Campuran Atrazin Dan Mesotrion Untuk Mengendalikan Gulma Pada Budidaya Tanaman Jagung ( Zea Mays L.)

Maize (Zea mays L ) is the most important food crops in the world beside rice and wheat. Weeds are one factor cause decrease productivity of maize. The objectives of this research were to know of dose combination atrazine and mesotrione herbicide to control the weed in maize field and how was the atrazine and mesotrione effect to maize. The research was conducted in Natar, South Lampung and Weeds Laboratory Faculty of Agriculture, University of Lampung, from December 2014 to April 2015. The experiment was arranged in Completely Randomized Block Design (CRBD) with six treatments and four replications. The treatments are combination atrazine and mesotrion herbicide rates at 500+50; 750+75; 1000+100; 1250+125; and 1500+150 g ha-1, mechanical weeding, and control. Homogenity of variance was tested by Bartlett test and additivitty tested by Tukey's test, the comparison of mean were tested by Least Significant Difference (LSD) test at 5% level. The result showed that (1) Atrazine and mesotrione herbicide at 500+50 until 1500+150 g ha-could suppress total, sedges, Cyperus rotundus and Celosia argenthea weed at 3 Weeks After Treatment (WAT), whereas at 6 WAT couldn't suppress weeds. (2) Atrazine and mesotrione herbicide at 500+50 until 1500+150 g ha-could suppress broadleaves, Richardia Brasiliensis and Commelina benghalensis weeds until 6 WAT. (3) Atrazine and mesotrione herbicide at 500+50 until 1500+150 g ha-couldn't suppress grasses and Rottboellia exaltata weed until 6 WAT (4) Atrazine and mesotrione herbicide does not affect the growth and production of maize

Perancangan Buku Ilustrasi Aksi Kamisan Untuk Pemula

Aksi Kamisan merupakan salah satu pergerakan dalam menegakan HAM, aksi ini sudah berlangsung selama hampir 10 tahun. Sayangnya Aksi Kamisan ini masih belum mendapatkan jawaban apapun dari pemerintah. Oleh karena itu diperlukannya banyak dukungan untuk aksi ini terutama pada generasi muda untuk ikut berperan. Dalam situasi ini diperlukanya solusi yang dapat memotivasi dan menarik perhatian generasi muda agar berperan. Dipilihlah media Buku Ilustrasi dikarenakan media ini bersifat menghibur dan tidak terlalu berat oleh target audience. Alur cerita pada buku ini dibuat seperti puisi agar pembaca tidak berpikir terlalu berat dan bisa dibawa dengan santai namun tetap menyampaikan pesan kemanusiaan. Dengan perancangan Buku Ilustrasi ini diharapkan anak muda lebih peduli dengan HAM dan Masyarakat pinggir

Cathepsin Z as a novel potential biomarker for osteoporosis

Osteoporosis, one of the most prevalent chronic ageing-related bone diseases, often goes undetected until the first fragility fracture occurs, causing patient suffering and cost to health/social care services. Osteoporosis arises from imbalanced activity of osteoclasts and osteoblasts. Since these cell lineages produce the protease, cathepsin Z, the aim of this study was to investigate whether altered cathepsin Z mRNA levels are associated with osteoporosis in clinical samples. Cathepsin Z mRNA in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells was significantly differentially-expressed among non-osteoporotic controls, osteopenia and osteoporosis patients (p < 0.0001) and in female osteoporosis patients over the age of 50 years (P = 0.0016). Cathepsin Z mRNA level strongly correlated with low bone mineral density (BMD) (g/cm2), lumbar spine L2-L4 and femoral neck (T-scores) (P = 0.0149, 0.0002 and 0.0139, respectively). Importantly, cathepsin Z mRNA was significantly associated with fragility fracture in osteoporosis patients (P = 0.0018). The levels of cathepsin Z mRNA were not significantly higher in patients with chronic inflammatory disorders in these two groups compared to those without (P = 0.774 and 0.666, respectively). ROC analysis showed that cathepsin Z mRNA has strong diagnostic value for osteoporosis and osteoporotic fracture. The results show for the first time that cathepsin Z could be a future diagnostic biomarker for osteoporosis including female osteoporosis patients over the age of 50 years

Spin transition of Fe 3+ in Al-bearing phase D: An alternative explanation for small-scale seismic scatterers in the mid-lower mantle

. An equation of state over the entire pressure range was calculated using the observed variation in low-spin fraction with pressure and a low-spin bulk modulus of K T0 = 253(30) GPa, derived from the data above 65 GPa. Pronounced softening in the bulk modulus occurs during the spin transition, reaching a minimum at 50 GPa (∼1500 km) where the bulk modulus of Fe-Al phase D is about 35% lower than Fe-Al-bearing silicate perovskite. Recovery of the bulk modulus at 50-65 GPa results in a structure that has a similar incompressibility as silicate perovskite above 65 GPa. Similarly, the bulk sound velocity of Fe-Al phase D reaches a minimum at ∼50 GPa, being about 10% slower than silicate perovskite. The potential association of Fe-Al phase D with subducted slabs entering the lower mantle, along with its elastic properties through the Fe 3+ spin transition predicted at 1200-1800 km, suggests that phase D may provide an alternative explanation for small-scale mid-lower mantle seismic scatterers and supports the presence of deeply recycled sediments in the lower mantle
