PENGARUH TERAPI SULIH HORMON ESTROGEN, PREPARAT KALSIUM DAN KOMBINASINYA PADA TULANG MANDIBULA (Studi eksperimental laboratorik pada tikus Wistar setelah ovariektomi)

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of ovariectomy, the influences of estrogen replacement therapy and/or suppelment CavitD3 on mandible's calcium contents of animal's models. Forty-five female rats were used in this research. Five rates were sacrificed for unoperated basal controls and the others were bilaterally ovariectomized. The ovariectomized animals were divided into 8 groups and two of these groups were only ovariectomized, the others were treated by estrogen replacement therapy. CavitD3 and combination of both per oral for 2 and 4 weeks and then were sacrificed. Mandible's calcium contents were analyzed by Ion Selective Electrode after demineralized with 10% phosphoric acid for 24 hours. Result : there were significant increased of mandible's calcium content at 2 weeks post-ovariectomy, but the results decreased at 4 weeks post-ovariectomy. Estrogen replacement therapy and treated with CavitD3 for 2 and 4 weeks or combination of both for 2 weeks increased the mandible's calcium contents of ovariectomized rats, but therapy combination with estrogen and CavitD3 for 4 weeks had a protective effect to mandible's calcium contents of ovariectomized rats

Efficacy of Essential Oil Strips Containing Thymol, Eucalyptol, Menthol, Methyl Salicylate, and Peppermint Against Dental Caries

Background: Strips containing essential oils are commonly used as an alternative treatment for dental caries prevention. However, their efficacy is unknown. This study aimed to test the efficacy of oral strips containing essential oils on caries prevention. Methods: This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study with 15 subjects divided into two groups: A and B. In the first week, group A (N = 8) was given strips containing thymol, eucalyptol, menthol, methyl salicylate, and peppermint (TEMMP) three times in 24 hours while group B (N = 7) was given placebo strips. In the second week, after a one-week washout period, each group was given the other product. Pre- and post-treatment evaluation was performed by measuring plaque acidity using a pH plaque indicator and determining the number of S.mutans colonies using a hand counter. Results: There was no significant difference between plaque pH and S.mutans count in subjects given TEMMP strips compared to placebo. Conclusions: The use of TEMMP essential oil strips does not significantly inhibit the growth of S.mutans or the production of plaque

Studi Evaluasi Tugas dan Fungsi Kandepkes Kabupaten/kota Madya dalam Pengelolaan Program Kesehatan di Daerah Tingkat II

A study to evaluate the performance of the District Office of Ministry of Health (DO-MOH) was carried out during the fiscal year of 1991/1992. Specific objectives of this study were to evaluate the organization of the DO-MOH as stated in the policy of MOH and to look at the implementation of coordination, integration and synchronization of the DO-MOH with the local related health agencies and local administrator. "Mail survey" in 301 DO-MOH throughout Indonesia, modified focus group discussion (MFGD) and indepth interview in 9 DO-MOH samples in South Kalimantan, Yogyakarta and South Sulawesi Provinces were carried out to achieve the objectives of this evaluative study. Descriptive and qualitative methods were used for data analysis. It was found that facilities, manpower, budget, management including coordination, integration and synchronization as well as other performances of most of the DO-MOH were still far beyond expected e.g 60.9% of DO-MOH were still using other building to carry out the daily routine jobs, 96,4% did not have stencil machines, 50,4% did not have calculators, 81.5% DO-MOH had 1-5 personnels who were still partimers, 51% did not carry out the managerial functions of DO-MOH. In the context of solving the problems faced by the DO-MOH there have been 5 proposed alternatives for structural and functional communications with the health units at provincial, regency, and district levels. There may be beneficial as well as unbeneficial aspects of these 5 alternatives, depending on the present existing conditions and the future expected health trends

Impact of Undergraduate Research as a Compulsory Course in the Dentistry Study Program Universitas Indonesia

Undergraduate (UG) research is regarded as a fundamental component in dental education. The present study was designed to examine the perception of the clinical students and the graduates of dentistry profession programs in the past 10 years on UG research as a compulsory course at the Faculty of Dentistry Universitas Indonesia. A total of 310 respondents, consisting of clinical students (64.8%) and alumni (35.2%), participated in this study. The majority of respondents (81.3%) agreed to UG research as part of compulsory courses in the curriculum of dentistry study programs. The positive impact of UG research on their professional careers was perceived by 78.3% of participants. Only 11.6% of participants responded that UG research experiments were not important in dental education, and 18.7% preferred UG research as an elective course. UG research as a compulsory course in the dental curriculum was well received by the majority of participants. Recommendations included student autonomy to select research topics of interest, longer duration to complete UG research, and more opportunities to present the research results in scientific conferences and to publish in scientific journals. Dental schools and their faculties play essential roles in improving the research environment for undergraduate dental students
