Pengaruh Hipertensi Terhadap Disfungsi Ereksi

: Hypertension is a condition where a person experiences an increase in blood pressure above normal on examination of blood pressure.Research by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia in 2009, the prevalence of hypertension in Indonesia in 2007 reached 32.2 %, while 30.5 % occurred in the North of Sulawesi. Erectile dysfunction is the inability to maintain an erection that is experienced by men due to various factors. Uncontrolled hypertension can damage blood vessels, causing blood vessels lose their elasticity and the volume of blood that flows to the penis during erection. The purpose of the study to determine the effects and erectile dysfunction and treatment in hypertensive men. The method used is descriptive research method. The research took place in the Hypertension Clinic (Internal Medicine) Government General Hospital of Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Manado. Samples taken in the study were hypertensive men with the age group 40-65 years. The research is conducted by using the IIEF-5 questionnaire. The number of samples obtained 45 patients with hypertension, with the following results: 11 mild erectile dysfunction (24%), moderate-mild dysfunction 19 people (42%), moderate dysfunction 12 people (27%), severe dysfunction 3 people (7%).

Perbandingan Kualitas Spermatozoa Tikus Wistar (Rattus Norvegicus) Yang Diberi Ekstrak Buah Pare (Momordica Charantia L) Dengan Ekstrak Biji Pepaya (Carica Papaya L)

: Male participation in contraception is still lacking. Pare (Momordica charantia L) is known having an inhibitory effect spermatogenesis and seeds of papaya (Carica papaya L) contain the alkaloid compounds that are anti-fertility, both can be used as a male contraceptive. The purpose of this study was to determine sperm quality comparison Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) were given a fruit extract of pare (Momordica charantia L) with the seed extract of papaya (Carica papaya L). The research used a completely randomized experimental design. There are nine samples of Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) males were divided into three groups and one group consisting three Wistar rats. Over the past 50 days, extracts of pare (Momordica charantia L) is given to the group 1 at 70mg / kg/day, while in the group 2 given seed extract of papaya (Carica papaya L) of 70mg / kg/day and the control group was given no treatment. The results showed significant differences in sperm motility among the treatment groups 1 with extract of bitter melon fruit (Momordica charantia L) and 2 treatment groups with the extract of papaya seeds (Carica papaya L), namely a decrease in sperm motility (p = 0.002). Conclusion, the fruit extract of bitter melon (Momordica charantia L) and seed extract of papaya (Carica papaya L) affects the quality of spermatozoa

Pengaruh Pemberian Cap Tikus Terhadap Kualitas Spermatozoa Wistar Jantan (Rattus Norvegicus)

: Alcohol is an organic compound that is composed of the elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Usually, the term of alcohol is known as liquor. One of the local products of liquor in Manado is Cap Tikus. This study aims to determine the effect of alcohol 20% on the spermatozoa quality of male Wistar (Rattus norvegicus). The research design was a completely randomized experimental design. The samples were 10 male wistar rats which consisted of 5 rats as a control group and 5 rats as the experiment group. The rats in the experiment group were given Cap Tikus for 52 days, while rats in the control group were given tap water. The results showed that spermatozoa quality from experiment group which includes the concentration of spermatozoa is 24x106 spermatozoa/ml, normal motility of spermatozoa is 23,5% and normal morphology of spermatozoa is 11%. Whereas spermatozoa quality from control group which includes the concentration of spermatozoa is59x106 spermatozoa/ml, normal motility of spermatozoa is 89% and normal morphology of spermatozoa is 97%. Conclusion: Cap Tikus decreased the spermatozoa quality which includes concentration, motility and morphology of spermatozoa. This was due to alcohol interfered the hypothalamus, the anterior pituitary gland and the testes that played an important role in the process of spermatogenesis

The Effect of Varied Concentration Tamarind (Tamarindus Indica L) Extract and the Soaking TIME on the Reduction Level of Heavy Metals Plumbum (Pb) and Cadmium (Cd) in the Clam (Anadara Granosa) Blood

This research aimed to determine the optimum concentration of tamarind extract and soaking time to reduce the heavy metals Pb and Cd in the blood of clam (Anadara granosa). The research was used the experimental method and designed as Factorial Completely Randomized Design. The clam was soaked into the solution of tamarind extract at 4 level concentrations, namely: without extract tamarind (K0), 10% tamarind (K10), 15% tamarind (K15), and 20% tamarind (K20), combined to 3 varied soaking time, namely: 60 minutes (W60), 90 minutes (W90), and 120 minutes (W120). All samples were assessed for their organoleptic characteristics and their metal Pb and Cd levels. The results showed that the treatment of soaking the clam into the 20% tamarind extract for 90 minutes was indicated the best treatment. It showed that the reduction of heavy metal up to the lowest level, those were Pb at 66,33% and Cd at 76,63%. Soaked clam blood soaked into the tamarind extract was affecting to their organoleptic characteristic, included to their consistence, taste and texture. The higher concentration of tamarind and the longer soaking time, the more little blackish brown and pale their consistance and the more acid tasted and quite clay of their texture
