Background: Gestational hypertension is usually defined as high bloodpressure that develops after 20 weeks of gestation in the absence ofproteinuria. Beets and star fruit contain vitamins and minerals such as Bvitamins and calcium, potassium, phosphorus, and iron, which can safelylower blood pressure in pregnancy.Objective: Determine the effect ofbeetroot juice (Beta vulgaris L) and star fruit (Averrhoacarambola L) on reducing blood pressure in pregnant women in the second trimester with gestational hypertension.Method: This pre-experimental research was a one-group pretest-posttest design with 200 ml/day of beet and starfruit juiceintervention for two weeks. The samples taken were 15 second trimesterpregnant women with gestational hypertension.The data taken is bloodpressure before and after treatment—data analysis using paired t-test.Results: data onthe mean systolic blood pressure before treatment is 146.53mmHg and after treatment is 126.07 mmHg and the average diastolic blood pressure before treatment is 94.53 mmHg and after treatment is 91.13mmHg. There is an effect of beet and star fruit juice administration onsystolic and diastolic blood pressure in second-trimester pregnant womenwith gestational hypertension (p 0.05).Conclusion : pregnant women withgestational hypertension is to treat hypertension using beet and starfruit juice so that hypertension can be treated immediately.Keywords: Beetroot Juice, Beta vulgaris L , Star Fruit , Averrhoa carambola L, Gestational Hypertension
Objectives: The aim of this study was to discover the characteristics of uterine myoma patients at the inpatient rooms of dr. Soepraon 2nd Grade Military Hospital, Malang.Case Report: Women reproductive system is prone to health problems, one of them is uterine myoma which being detected through pathology anatomy examination and shows an increasing prevalence (70%) nowadays. In Indonesia, the cases of uterine myoma reach 2,39 – 11,7%, placing second right after cervical cancer. The aim of this study was to discover the characteristics of uterine myoma patients at the inpatient rooms of dr. Soepraon 2nd Grade Military Hospital, Malang. The research design used in this study was case report. Population of this study included uterine myoma patients who were being treated at the inpatient rooms of dr. Soepraon 2nd Grade Military Hospital, Malang in between the period of January – December 2017 with a total of 82 patients. The sampling method used was total sampling. Sample of this study was acquired through secondary data in the form of medical records. The result of this study showed that the highest number of case was in the 50 – 54 years old age group (53.3%), the most common education background was high school graduates (46%), the most common occupation group was the unemployed (59%), the most common surgical therapy done was myomectomy (89%), the most common myoma was submucous myoma (46,3%) and the most common parity status was multipara (44%).Conclusion: Women aged 45 and older with multipara history are advised to maintain their reproductive health through healthy eating pattern, regular exercise and regular check-ups to detect the possibility of developing uterine myomas early.
Anaemic caused by Iron deficiency can be affected by a lack of vitamin C. Vitamin C can reduce ferrous iron (Fe3+) to ferrous (Fe2+) in the small intestine so that it is easily absorbed. Kombucha tea is a functional drink known to the public for a long time and provides health benefits. The study aimed to determine the effectiveness of kombucha rosella tea against increasing haemoglobin levels in mice (Mus musculus) anaemic. The type of research is true experimental with a pre-post test randomized control group design. Treatment with four treatments and three repetitions. The sample from this study was mice (Mus musculus), female, 2-3 months, weighing 20-25 as many as 24 heads. Administration of kombucha rosella tea in anaemic mice at different doses (0.36 ml / 20 g BB, 0.55 ml / 20 g BB and 0.73 ml / 20 g BB) for 14 days. Giving kombucha rosella tea can increase haemoglobin levels in the blood of mice (Mus musculus) anaemic. The optimal dose of use of kombucha rosella tea against an increase in haemoglobin levels in the blood of anaemic mice is 0.73 ml / 20 g BB. It is necessary to conduct further research on using kombucha rosella tea in human subjects to obtain further substantiation of the benefits of kombucha rosella tea as a treatment therapy.
Anemia is one of the epidemic health problems in society and the most common nutritional problem. The Moringa oleifera is rich in excellent dietary content and can complement the body's needs. This study aims to determine Moringa oilefera leaf extract's effectiveness in increasing hemoglobin levels in pregnant rats (Ratus norvegicus) with anemia. This paper used a true experimental research design with a pre-post test randomized control group design. This study utilized female rats (Ratus norvegicus), pregnant 8-12 weeks, weighing 200 grams. Experimental procedures were four treatments with three repetitions. Types of treatment were negative control and positive control (administration of Moringa oilefera leaf extract) at a dose of 0.18 g / head, 0.36 g / head, and 0.72 g/head. Analysis using one way ANOVA with an error rate of 0.05. The results showed p<0.005, which means a significant increase in hemoglobin levels in the group given the treatment of moringa leaf extract at a dose of 0.72 g/head/day. The conclusion and suggestion from this research are public could get information about using natural materials as economically valuable drugs (back to nature)
Introduction: Immunocontraception of zone pellucide (ZP3) is known causing disturbance of gap junction which inhibits transport growth factor such as bone morphogenetic protein (BMP-15). Decreased BMP-15 generates disturbance of proliferation and differentiation of follicle, granulosa, and techa cells. Anti-Human ZP3 monoclonal antibody with high specificity is being developed to prevent such effects. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of MabhZP3 on the expression of BMP-15 and number of preantral and antral follicles in the ovary of mice.
