Introduction: Acne vulgaris (AV) is one of the most common skin disorders among youth. A cross-sectional study was conducted to analyze the association between bubble tea consumption and the prevalence of acne vulgaris among medical students. Method: Subjects were obtained from consecutive sampling. There were 91 eligible subjects meeting inclusion criteria. Data was collected using questionnaires. Examinations were through the observation of photographs of lesions. Chi-square analysis was conducted at a 95% confidence interval (p<0.05). Results: Data were collected from 91 medical students with a mean age of 19.62+0.98-year-old. The prevalence of acne was 58.2%, mainly at the age of 20 (37.7%). There is a significant association between consumption of bubble tea and the prevalence of AV (p<0.001). Conclusion: Bubble tea consumption is associated with the prevalence of acne vulgaris. Pendahuluan: Akne vulgaris merupakan salah satu penyakit kulit yang umum dialami pada dewasa muda. Metode: Penelitian observasional cross-sectional untuk mengetahui asosiasi konsumsi bubble tea dengan kejadian akne vulgaris. Sampel diambil dengan metode consecutive sampling menghasilkan 91 mahasiswa yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi. Pengambilan data primer dengan kuesioner. Pemeriksaan fisik observasi kulit responden dengan foto. Analisis data menggunakan uji Chi-Square dengan tingkat kemaknaan p<0,05. Hasil: Angka kejadian akne vulgaris adalah 58,2%, dengan rata-rata usia 19,62+0,98; usia terbanyak penderita adalah 20 tahun (37,7%). Terdapat asosiasi bermakna antara konsumsi bubble tea dan kejadian akne vulgaris (p<0,001). Simpulan: Penelitian ini menunjukkan hubungan bermakna antara konsumsi bubble tea dan kejadian akne vulgaris.

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a disease that is included in the group of metabolic diseases, characterized by hyperglycemia that occurs due to abnormal insulin secretion. Generally, treatment of diabetes mellitus uses insulin injection and Oral Hypoglycemic Drugs (OHD). In addition there are also animals are trusted by public in healing diabetes mellitus. Antlions (Myrmeleon sp)  is a useful animal to treat diabetes mellitus. The body of antlions contains sulfonylureas which is a substance that stimulates insulin secretion in pancreatic beta cells. Aim: The objective of this research was to analyze the effect of antlions extract on blood glucose level of male swiss mice induced by streptozotocin Methods: This research was a pure experimental laboratory study and the design used is the Pre Test and Post Test Control Group Design, which is done by comparing the results of observations in the control and treatment groups after the action was done. Sampling was done using the simple random sampling technique. The sample size used in this study amounted to 30 mice. The data obtained were analyzed using ANOVA test with a confidence level of 95%. Results: The administration of antlions extract could lower (p<0.05) blood glucose levels in male Swiss mice after 28 days of treatment. The administration of antlions extract with doses of 14 mg/kgBW and 56 mg/kgBW significantly lowered blood glucose levels in male Swiss mice as evidenced by p=<0.001 and p=0.034. Whereas the administration of antlions extract with a dose of 28 mg/kgBW was less significant in lowering blood glucose levels in male Swiss mice (p=0.210). Conclusion: The administration of antlions extract (Myrmeleon sp.) with a dose of 14 mg/kgBW had the best effect on lowering blood glucose levels in male Swiss mice after 28 days of treatment. Keywords: diabetes mellitus, blood glucose, antlions
