Prevalensi diabetes melitus berdasarkan hasil Riset Kesehatan Dasar yang tertinggi di Indonesia terdapat di provinsi DKI Jakarta. Ketidakpatuhan berobat pasien diabetes melitus tipe 2 merupakan salah satu faktor yang mengakibatkan rendahnya kontrol glukosa darah dan meningkatnya resiko komplikasi. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui profil tingkat kepatuhan penggunaan obat di Puskesmas Kecamatan Makasar  Jakarta Timur dan faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi kepatuhan penggunaan obat pada pasien diabetes melitus tipe 2. Penelitian ini berdesain cross sectional yang dilaksanakan pada April 2019 sampai Juni 2019 dengan total 175 responden diabetes melitus tipe 2. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan teknik wawancara terstruktur menggunakan kuesioner kepatuhan MMAS-8. Data diolah dengan menggunakan software statistik dan dianalisa menggunakan analisa distribusi frekuensi dan uji chi square. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa 71 responden (40,6%) memiliki tingkat kepatuhan sedang dalam menggunakan obat antidiabetes. Alasan utama ketidakpatuhan responden adalah bosan (43,6%). Ada hubungan bermakna antara tingkat kepatuhan dan hasil tes gula darah. Untuk mengetahui lebih dalam hubungan antara tingkat kepatuhan dengan hasil tes gula darah maka perlu adanya penelitian lanjutan tentang hubungan studi prospektif hasil tes gula darah dengan tingkat kepatuhan. &nbsp

Pemberian Informasi Obat Pasien Dengan Resep Antibiotik Dan Penyediaan Antibiotik Tanpa Resep Di Tangerang Selatan: Providing Drug Information to Patients with Prescribing Antibiotics and Provision of Antibiotics Without Prescription in South Tangerang

A pharmacy is a place where pharmacists do their pharmaceutical work, serving directly and responsibly for patients who need their professional services. One form of direct service is the provision of drug information and counseling. The purpose of this study was to describe the drug information services provided by pharmaceutical personnel in the South Tangerang area pharmacy for patients who redeemed prescriptions using antibiotics. Patient simulation method was used to collect data to 100 pharmacies that were randomly selected based on data in the city health office. Recommendations were obtained from the South Tangerang branch of the Indonesian Pharmacists Association while ethical clearance was obtained from the ethical committee of the Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia. The results of this study indicate that 85% percent of pharmaceutical personnel who provide drug information for simulated patients are non-pharmacists. The most widely conveyed drug information items were the frequency of drug use delivered by 82% of pharmacists, received by the intended use (61%) and time of use (44%). Not related to pharmacy officers who submit the following information: drug interactions and ways to prevent them, side effects of drugs and how to prevent them; food and drinks that must be avoided as well as how to store drugs. As many as 49% of pharmacists provide additional antibiotics requested by patients without a prescription. Drug information points provided by pharmacy staff specifically by pharmacist had not been maximally delivered

A Tale of Two Puppets, Two Avatars and Two Countries

Part 1: Long and Short Papers (Continued)International audienceWe describe observations from studies conducted with school children in Nepal and Portugal with the aim of exploring two questions: 1. Can we develop an interactive game that will continue to engage the child in gameplay when the electricity supply fails? 2. What are the discernable differences in the ways children in Nepal and Portugal interact with the game given the huge socio-economic and cultural differences between them? The studies highlight the potential of the design in fostering continued engagement in the game when the electricity supply fails. They also show surprising little difference between the children in Nepal and Portugal. The observations suggest game mechanism and basic interactions can be regarded as universal across cultures and levels of income and can thus be designed and tested in any location and be expected to work and be understood by children from any culture and background

Climate change on Twitter: topics, communities and conversations about the 2013 IPCC Working Group 1 report

In September 2013 the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change published its Working Group 1 report, the first comprehensive assessment of physical climate science in six years, constituting a critical event in the societal debate about climate change. This paper analyses the nature of this debate in one public forum: Twitter. Using statistical methods, tweets were analyzed to discover the hashtags used when people tweeted about the IPCC report, and how Twitter users formed communities around their conversational connections. In short, the paper presents the topics and tweeters at this particular moment in the climate debate. The most used hashtags related to themes of science, geographical location and social issues connected to climate change. Particularly noteworthy were tweets connected to Australian politics, US politics, geoengineering and fracking. Three communities of Twitter users were identified. Researcher coding of Twitter users showed how these varied according to geographical location and whether users were supportive, unsupportive or neutral in their tweets about the IPCC. Overall, users were most likely to converse with users holding similar views. However, qualitative analysis suggested the emergence of a community of Twitter users, predominantly based in the UK, where greater interaction between contrasting views took place. This analysis also illustrated the presence of a campaign by the non-governmental organization Avaaz, aimed at increasing media coverage of the IPCC report
