Background: The antibacterial potential of Binahong leaf extract has been known but has not been studied further, especially against disease-causing bacteria in the Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) field. The antibacterial activity is made possible by the presence of flavonoid compounds, saponins and alkaloids. This study aims to test the acute toxicity in determining the LD50 value and the subchronic toxicity test in the phytopathological examination of liver and kidney function in female Balb/C mice. Methods: Experimental research was conducted on acute and subchronic toxicity of binahong leaf extract in mice. An acute toxicity test was carried out by giving a single dose of Binahong leaf extract, starting at a dose of 5 mg/kgBW and increasing until 2 mice died or 1 mouse showed symptoms of toxicity. After 28 days of offering Binahong leaf extract, blood serum was taken to check kidney and liver function, while the kidneys and then histopathological examinations were carried out. Data were analyzed with SPSS version 20 for Windows. Results: There was a significant difference in SGPT levels in the group that received binahong extract treatment at a dose of 250 mg/kgBW (24.08±3.08/L), 500 mg/kgBW (26.84±1.47/L), and 1000 mg/kgBW (30.38±0.68/L) compared to the control group (18.18±0.46/L) (p<0.05). Significant differences were also found in BUN and SC levels measurement compared to the control group (p<0.05). However, significant differences in SGOT levels were only found in the binahong extract group at a dose of 500 mg/kgBW (44.88±2.88/L) and 1000 mg/kgBW (58.18±2.56/L) compared to the control (37 ,48±0.44 /L) (p<0.05). Conclusion: There were significant differences in the levels of SGPT, SGOT, BUN, and SC after the administration of various doses of binahong leaf extract in female Balb/C mice. Latar Belakang: Potensi antibakteri ekstrak daun Binahong telah diketahui namun belum diteliti lebih jauh terutama terhadap bakteri penyebab penyakit di bidang Telinga Hidung dan Tenggorok (THT). Aktivitas antibakteri tersebut dimungkinkan oleh adanya kandungan senyawa flavonoid, saponin dan alkaloid. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji toksisitas akut dalam menentukan nilai LD50 dan uji toksisitas subkronik berupa pemeriksaan fungsi hepar dan ginjal secara biokimia dan histopatologi pada mencit Balb/C betina. Metode: Penelitian eksperimental dilakukan terhadap toksisitas akut dan subkronik ekstrak daun Binahong pada mencit. Uji toksisitas akut dilakukan dengan memberikan ekstrak daun Binahong dosis tunggal mulai dari dosis 5 mg/kgBB dan ditingkatkan sampai didapatkan ≥ 2 ekor mencit yang mati atau ≥ 1 ekor mencit menunjukkan gejala toksisitas. Setelah 28 hari pemberian ekstrak daun Binahong, dilakukan pengambilan serum darah untuk diperiksa fungsi ginjal dan hepar, sedangkan organ ginjal dan hepar selanjutnya akan dilakukan pemeriksaan histopatologi. Data dianalisis dengan SPSS versi 20 untuk Windows. Hasil: Terdapat perbedaan yang bermakna kadar SGPT pada kelompok yang mendapatkan perlakuan ekstrak binahong dengan dosis 250 mg/kgBB (24,08±3,08 µ/L), 500 mg/kgBB (26,84±1,47 µ/L), dan 1000 mg/kgBB (30,38±0,68 µ/L) dibandingkan dengan kelompok kontrol (18,18±0,46 µ/L) (p<0,05). Perbedaan yang bermakna juga ditemukan pada pengukuran kadar BUN dan SC dibandingkan dengan kelompok kontrol (p<0,05). Akan tetapi perbedaan bermakna kadar SGOT hanya ditemukan pada kelompok ekstrak binahong dengan dosis 500 mg/kgBB (44,88±2,88 µ/L) dan 1000 mg/kgBB (58,18 ± 2,56 µ/L) dibandingkan dengan kontrol (37,48±0,44 µ/L) (p<0,05). Simpulan: Terdapat perbedaan yang bermakna pada kadar SGPT, SGOT, BUN, dan SC pasca pemberian berbagai dosis ekstrak daun binahong pada mencit Balb/C betina.
Background: Mucociliary clearance is a significant element of the defence system of the entire respiratory tract. Impairment of the mucociliary clearance serves as a medium for sinonasal infections. Saline nasal irrigation is believed to alleviated rhinosinusitis symptoms by clearing excess mucus, reducing congestion and remove infectious materials from the inspired air. This study aimed to determine the efficacy of mucociliary transport time of isotonic saline nasal solutions in patients with acute rhinosinusitis.Methods: An experimental study using pre- and post-test with control group design was conducted in this study. Mucociliary transport time was measured by the saccharine test on 20 acute rhinosinusitis patients before and after 7 days’ treatment with intranasal isotonic saline solutions and standard therapy (ciprofloxacin, pseudoephedrine/ triprolidine, ambroxol) for the case group and standard treatment for the control group. Data were analysed using SPSS version 20 for Windows.Result: The average mucociliary transport time before therapy was 35.5±10.7 minutes and 29.2±7.7 minutes for the case group and control group, respectively. The average mucociliary transport time after therapy was 22.9±8.7 minutes and 18.0 ± 5.6 minutes for case group and control group, respectively. The mean difference mucociliary transport time before and after therapy was 11.0±7.5 minutes and 9.4±5.3 minutes for the case and control group, respectively (p=0.499).Conclusions: The addition of intranasal isotonic saline solutions in acute rhinosinusitis patients has the same effect of mucociliary transport time with oral medication with the antibiotic, decongestant, and mucolytic without intranasal isotonic saline solutions. Latar Belakang: Transpor mukosilia merupakan salah satu mekanisme pertahanan saluran pernapasan. Adanya gangguan pada sistem tersebut menjadi predisposisi terjadinya infeksi sinonasal. Larutan pencuci hidung dengan salin isotonis dipercaya dapat mengurangi gejala akibat rinosinusitis dengan cara membersihkan sekret, mengurangi odema dan mengeluarkan bahan-bahan berbahaya yang masuk bersama udara pernapasan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menilai efektivitas waktu transpor mukosilia larutan pencuci hidung salin isotonis pada pasien rinosinusitis akut.Metode: Uji eksperimental dengan desai pre-post test dengan kontrol dilakukan pada penelitian ini. Waktu transpor mukosilia diukur menggunakan uji sakarin terhadap 20 pasien rinosinusitis akut sebelum dan 7 hari sesudah pemberian larutan pencuci hidung salin isotonis dan terapi standar (ciprofloxacine, pseudoephedrine/triprolidine, ambroxol) pada Kelompok Perlakuan dan terapi standar pada Kelompok Kontrol. Data dianalisis menggunakan SPSS versi 20 untuk Windows.Hasil: Rerata waktu transpor mukosilia sebelum perlakuan pada Kelompok Perlakuan adalah 35,5 ± 10,7 menit dan 29,2 ± 7,7 menit pada Kelompok Kontrol. Rerata waktu transpor mukosilia sesudah terapi adalah 22,9 ± 8,7 menit dan 18,0±5,6 menit berturut-turut pada Kelompok Perlakuan dan Kelompok Kontrol. Median selisih waktu transpor mukosilia sebelum dan sesudah terapi adalah 11,0±7,5 menit pada Kelompok Perlakuan dan 9,4 ± 5,3 menit pada Kelompok Kontrol (p=0,499).Kesimpulan: Penambahan larutan cuci hidung salin isotonis pada rinosinusitis akut memiliki efek waktu transpor mukosilia yang sama dengan pemberian antibiotika, dekongestan dan mukolitik tanpa larutan cuci hidung salin isotonis.
Background: Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media (CSOM) is a chronic inflammation of the middle ear and mastoid mucosa characterized by perforation of the tympanic membrane and persistent discharge from the middle ear. The high resistance rate to CSOM pathogen brings hope for the development of natural-based drugs. The Binahong plant (Anredera cordifolia) has been known for a long time and is widely used as a traditional herb by Indonesian people. Flavonoid, saponins and alkaloids compounds from Binahong leaf extracts in several studies reveal its antibacterial activity. This study aims to determine the antibacterial activity of Binahong leaf extract ear drops against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, CSOM pathogen in-vitro. Methods: This is an experimental study with a post-test only control group design by testing antibacterial activity of binahong leaf extract at 1%, 3% and 5% concentrations into Pseudomonas aeruginosa American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) 9027. Chloramphenicol 1% was used as a positive control and ethanol 96% as a negative control. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20 for Windows. Results: The minimum Inhibitory Zone Diameter (IZD) in the treatment groups A1, A2, A3 and A4 was the same, namely 0.00 mm and the maximum IZD in the treatment groups A1, A2, A3, A4 was also the same, which was 0.00 mm, so that the average IZD of the treatment groups A1, A2, A3, A4 was 0.00 mm. Meanwhile, in the A4 treatment group, the minimum IZD was 11.00 mm and the maximum IZD was 12.00 mm, so the average IZD was 11.20 mm. Conclusion: Antibacterial activity of the Binahong (Anredera cordifolia) leaf extract ear drops at 1%, 3% and 5% concentrations showed weak inhibitory response to Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria. Latar Belakang: Otitis media supuratif kronis (OMSK) adalah inflamasi kronis mukosa telinga tengah dan mastoid ditandai perforasi membran timpani dan keluarnya cairan dari telinga tengah yang menetap. Tingginya angka resistensi terhadap bakteri penyebab OMSK membawa harapan bagi pengembangan obat yang berbahan dasar alam. Tanaman Binahong (Anredera cordifolia) telah dikenal sejak dahulu dan banyak digunakan sebagai tanaman obat oleh masyarakat di Indonesia. Senyawa flavonoid, saponin dan alkaloid yang terkandung pada daun Binohong diketahui memiliki aktifitas antibakteri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui aktivitas antibakteri tetes telinga ekstrak daun Binahong terhadap Pseudomonas aeruginosa penyebab OMSK secara in-vitro. Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian eksperimental dengan rancangan post-test only control group design yaitu menguji aktivitas antibakteri berupa diameter daerah hambat (DDH) sediaan tetes telinga ekstrak daun Binahong konsentrasi 1%, 3% dan 5% terhadap Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC-9027. Sebagai kontrol positif digunakan Chloramphenicol 1% dan sebagai kontrol negatif digunakan ethanol 96% Data dianalisis menggunakan SPSS versi 20 untuk Windows. Hasil: Diameter daerah hambat (DDH) minimal pada kelompok perlakuan A1, A2, A3 dan A4 adalah sama, yaitu 0,00 mm dan DDH maksimal pada kelompok perlakuan A1, A2, A3, A4 juga sama, yaitu sebesar 0,00 mm, sehingga rerata diameter daerah hambat kelompok perlakuan A1, A2, A3, A4 adalah 0,00 mm. Sedangkan pada kelompok perlakuan A4, DDH minimal adalah 11,00 mm dan DDH maksimal sebesar 12,00 mm, sehingga rerata DDH adalah 11,20 mm. Kesimpulan: Aktivitas antibakteri sediaan tetes telinga ekstrak daun Binahong (Anredera cordifolia) pada konsentrasi 1%, 3% dan 5% menunjukkan respon hambat lemah terhadap pertumbuhan bakteri Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
