Pemberian Kombinasi Vitamin B1, B6 dan B12 sebagai Faktor Determinan Penurunan Nilai Total Gejala pada Pasien Neuropati Perifer Diabetik
Diabetic neuropathy is defined as symptoms of peripheral nerve dysfunction in people with diabetes after the exclusion of other causes. According to the earlier studies symptoms of neuropathy such as pain, burning, paresthesia/tingling and numbness can be reduced with neurotropic supplementation. The aim of the research is to determine vitamin B1, ÂB6 and B12 as a determinant factor in the reduce total symptom score in patient with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. This research used case series studies and choose 43 sample with consecutive sampling method. We observed symptoms of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (pain, burning, tingling and numbness) measured as total symptoms score, among the patients treated with vitamin B1 (100mg), ÂB6 (100mg) and B12 (5000mcg) for a month. Measurement of total symptoms score performed at first meeting, the second week later (day-14) and the fourth week later (day-30). The data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate statistics. The patients (n=43) consisted of 20 male (46.5 %) and 23 female (53.5 %). The symptoms of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (pain, burning, tingling and numbness) that measured by total symptoms score compared with first visit (4.70 ± 1.83), second visit (2.99 ± 1.61) and third (2:37 ± 1.62). Bivariate analysis, showed a correlation between a reduction in total symptoms score after giving therapy of vitamin B1 (100mg), ÂB6 (100mg) and B12 (5000mcg) with p = 0.00. Vitamin B1, ÂB6 and B12 proved to be a determinant factor to reduce total symptoms score (pain, burning, tingling, and numbness) in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy

Changes in Life Quality of Chronic Kidney Disease Patients with Hemodialysis Who Are Given Vitamin B1, B6, and B12 Parenterally
Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a disease that causes a progressive decrease in kidney function, which can end in kidney failure disease and will have an impact on decreasing quality of life. Previous research has shown that by giving vitamins B1, B6, and B12 can improve quality of life.
Aim: To measure changes in quality of life in patients with chronic kidney disease who were given vitamins B1, B6, and B12 parenterally.
Material and Methods: This study used quasi experimental (one group pre and post test) in 117 patients who were selected in Bethesda Hospital and Panti Rapih Hospital Yogyakarta hemodialysis unit. Patients were given vitamins B Combination injections twice a week in each hemodialysis for 4 weeks. Quality of life was measured by SF-8 questionnaire on the first day of hemodialysis before given vitamins (pre-test) and on the 30th day, after eight injection of vitamins B1, B6, and B12 (post test).
Results: The mean age of observed patients were 51.58 ± 12.51 years. From 117 patients, 73 patients (62,4%) were male and 44 patients (37.6%) were female. The improvement in overall quality of life in patients was not significant (p= 0.055). Quality of life improvement was only significant in the male group (p = 0.016).
Conclusion: There was no significant difference after 4-weeks-injections of vitamins B Combination to the overall quality of life in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis. But there was found a significant improvement in quality of life in the male patients with chronic kidney disease who had hemodialysis.

Perbedaan Antara Asupan Vitamin B1, B6 Dan B12 Dengan Kejadian Dysmenorrhea Pada Remaja Putri Di Sman 8 Kota Malang Dan Ma Nurul Ulum Munjungan Kabupaten Trenggalek
Dysmenorrhea merupakan salah satu masalah menstruasi yang paling sering dialami oleh
remaja putri. Dysmenorrhea dibagi menjadi dysmenorrhe primer dan sekunder. Dysmenorrhea
terjadi tanpa disertai patologi organ pelvik. Kekurangan mikronutrien yakni vitamin B1, B6 dan B12
merupakan salah satu faktor penyebab dari dysmenorrhe primer. Konsumsi seimbang dari ketiga
vitamin pada menu harian dapat mencegah terjadinya dysmenorrhe primer karena ketiga vitamin
ini mampu menghambat sintesa prostaglandin. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui
perbedaan antara asupan vitamin B1, B6 dan B12 dengan kejadian dysmenorrhea pada remaja di
SMAN 8 Kota Malang dan MA Nurul Ulum Munjungan, Trenggalek. Desain penelitian yang
digunakan adalah observasional analitik menggunakan metode cross sectional. Sampel dalam
penelitian ini berjumlah 84 orang yang dipilih dengan menggunakan teknik proportional stratified
random sampling. Uji analisis hubungan asupan Vitamin B1, B6 dan B12 dengan kejadian
dysmenorrhea menggunakan uji Spearman Rank dan Regresi Linier. Hasil uji Spearman diperoleh
nilai p<0,05 untuk hubungan asupan Vitamin B1, B6 dan B12 dengan kejadian dysmenorrhea.
Hasil analisis Regresi Linier diperoleh p<0,05. Uji beda dilakukan untuk melihat adanya perbedaan
antara asupan vitamin B1, B6 dan B12 dari kedua sekolah dilakukan menggunakan uji MannWhitney. Hasil uji menunjukkan p>0,05. Sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa tidak ada perbedaan
asupan vitamin B1, B6 dan B12 dari SMAN 8 Kota Malang dan MA Nurul Ulum Munjungan, akan
tetapi zat mikronutrien yang paling berpengaruh dari kedua sekolah berbeda. Vitamin B12
merupakan vitamin yang paling berpengaruh di SMAN 8 Kota Malang, sedangkan di MA Nurul
Ulum Munjungan Vitamin B1 yang paling berpengaruh
