Latar Belakang: lalat salah satu vektor mekanik karena menyebabkan penyakit secara tidak langsung. Semua bagian lalat berperan sebagai alat penular penyakit, dari badan, bulu tangan dan kaki, feses, serta muntahannya. Fly Grilladakah salah satu teknik pengendalian lalat dengan melihat kepadatan lalat disuatu tempat. Alat ini dapat diberikan variasi warna karena serangga memiliki ketertarikan kepada gelombang warna yang berbeda. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui perbedaan kepadatan lalat pada variasi warna pada Fly Grill.Metode: Penelitian ini adalah kuasi eksperimen. Perlakuan denganFly Grillyang berbeda warna (kuning, biru, hijau, putih) dan kontrol (bambu tanpa diberi cat).Pengukuran pada tiga titik ukur (0, 1, 2 m dari tempat pemotongan). Data yang diperoleh dianalisis menggunkan uji ANOVA dengan derajat kesalahan α 0,05.dilanjutkan dengan  uji Post hoc Benferroni.Hasil: Hasil penelitian menunjukkanada perbedaan signifikan rata rata jumlah lalat yang terperangkap pada Fly Grillyang berbeda warna. Antara Fly Grillwarna kuning- biru diperoleh nilai p value 0,030<α (0,05) artinya terdapat perbedaan yang bermakna antara Fly Grillwarna kuning dan biru. Sedangkan  antara Fly Grillwarna biru- putih diperoleh nilai p value 0,037<α (0,05) artinya terdapat perbedaan yang bermakna antara Fly Grillwarna biru dan putih.Simpulan: Ada perbedaan nyara kepadatan lalat pada Fly Grill warna Putih, Kuning, Biru, Hijau, dan Kontrol. Terdapat perbedaan yang bermakna pada kepatan lalat pada Fly Grill warna kuning-biru dan Fly Grill warna biru-putih. Warna Kuning paling tinggi kepadatan lalatnya sedangkanwarna biru warna yang paling rendah kepadatan lalatnya ABSTRACT Title : The effects of colour variation on fly grill toward the density of flies: a case study in the chicken abattoir of Terban traditional market,  Yogyakarta Background: Fly is one mechanic vector because it causes disease indirectly. All parts of fly play role in transferring disease, from body, feathers of hands and feet, feces, and vomiting. One technique to understand fly density in one location is to use Fly Grill. This tool can be given varying colors because this insect has attraction to different color waves. A research was done to understand difference of fly densities in various colors of Fly Grill.Method: The research in this study was quasi experimental. The data were collected by using five Fly Grills with different colors (yellow, blue, green, white and control), conducted in three measuring points (0, 1, and 2m) from Chicken slaughterhouse. The collected data were analyzed by using ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) with error degree α=0.05followed by the Post hoc Benferroni test.Results: The result was a significant difference in the average number of flies trapped on different colored Fly Grills. Between yellow and blue Fly Grills indicated that p value 0.30 < α(0.05), that means had significant difference between the yellow and blue Fly Grills, and blue and white Fly Grills indicated that p value 0.037 < α(0.05) that means had significant difference between blue and white Fly Grills.Conclusions: There was a difference in the density of flies on the Fly Grill colors White, Yellow, Blue, Green, and Control There was difference of fly densities in yellow-blue Fly Grills and blue-white Fly Grills in the Chicken slaughterhouse (RPA) in Terban Market, Yogyakarta City.

Abstract Background Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), such as C. difficile colitis, pose a significant health risk. C. difficile is a spore-forming gram-positive anaerobic bacillus capable of surviving on various surfaces. While a strong emphasis has been placed on hand-washing and environmental cleaning with bleach products to limit the spread of C. difficile, stethoscope contamination has been poorly addressed. Studies have demonstrated that the stethoscope diaphragm harbors similar levels and type of contamination to one’s hands. While a non-alcohol-based solution is recommended for stethoscope hygiene in settings at risk for C. difficile, the use of an aseptic stethoscope diaphragm barrier has not been evaluated. Our purpose is to evaluate whether C. difficile-contaminated stethoscope diaphragms remain aseptic by the placement of an aseptic diaphragm barrier. Methods Fresh cultures of C. difficile were diluted to 107 CFU/mL. After inoculating 16 stethoscope diaphragms with C. difficile, 8 had an aseptic diaphragm barrier applied, and 8 served as non-barrier controls. Contaminated stethoscopes were placed in an anaerobic incubator, then swabbed at 15 and 30 minutes, 2 and 4 hours, and 1, 2, 3, and 7 days after inoculation, and subsequently plated onto blood, chocolate, and cycloserine-cefoxitin fructose agar. These plates were incubated for 48 hours, and resulting colonies were manually counted. Statistical analysis was performed (RStudio version 1.0.153) by ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) with post-hoc Tukey HSD (Honestly Significant Difference). Results Overall, mean colony count was 33 CFU on the 8 stethoscope diaphragms without barriers, vs zero on those with barriers (p≤ 0.05). Growth rates were greatest at 48 hours, with colony counts as high as 160. While stethoscope diaphragms without barriers had increasing rates of C. difficile culture growth, the presence of the barrier resulted in no growth in 100% of stethoscope diaphragms for up to 1 week after contamination (Figure 1). C. difficile colony counts from stethoscope diaphragms at time-points up to 1 week. Conclusion Aseptic barriers allow C. difficile-contaminated stethoscope diaphragms to remain without bacterial growth for up to a week. Disposable aseptic diaphragm barriers may be effective in preventing the spread of C. difficile. Disclosures William F. Peacock, MD, AseptiScope Inc. (Board Member)

Abstract The onset and exacerbation of obesity involves the overproduction of the adipocyte-derived hormone leptin, a key mediator of homeostatic appetite regulation and a signal for satiety. Although leptin’s hypothalamic regulation of food intake has been extensively investigated, its role in tandem with the anorectic neurotransmitter serotonin (5-HT) has been less characterized. 5-HT is synthesized in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) where anatomical projections to many hypothalamic nuclei have previously been identified. Preliminary studies in our lab have: (1) identified serotonergic neurons responsive to leptin in the DRN that project to the arcuate nucleus (ARC) of the hypothalamus and (2) demonstrated leptin injected into the DRN significantly decreases food intake. The objective of the current study was to identify the role of 5-HT in leptin’s regulation of food intake first within the DRN, then between the DRN and the ARC. Adult male Sprague Dawley rats underwent stereotaxic surgery for guide cannula implantation in the DRN. After recovery, animals were administered 100 µg of p-chlorophenylalanine (PCPA), an inhibitor of 5-HT synthesis, in the DRN each day for four days. On the fourth day, leptin was also administered in the DRN (5 µg/rat) and food intake was measured over a 24-hour time course. ANOVA analysis revealed a significant difference in 24-hour food intake [F (3, 18) = 3.972; P = 0.0246] and post-hoc analysis showed that animals treated with leptin significantly decreased food intake (17.2 ± 2.0 g) compared to control rats (25.4 ± 0.9 g), whereas PCPA-treated rats did not differ from the control rats, suggesting that depletion of 5-HT attenuated leptin’s ability to regulate food intake within the DRN. To examine the role of 5-HT on leptin’s hypothalamic action, a subsequent experiment was conducted by implanting an additional cannula into the ARC for the administration of leptin or vehicle on the fourth day of treatment. ANOVA analysis revealed a significant difference in 24-hour food intake [F (3, 16) = 5.998; P = 0.0061] and post-hoc analysis showed that only rats treated with leptin in the ARC significantly decreased food intake (14.0 ± 1.5 g) compared to controls (21.8 ± 0.5 g). 5-HT depletion was assessed post-mortem using immunohistochemistry and was later quantified. Collectively, these results demonstrate that leptin’s ability to regulate food intake is dependent on 5-HT, regardless of the area of regulation (i.e. DRN or the hypothalamus).

The aim was to assess the influence of moderate cigarette-smoking on the clinical (bleeding on probing [BoP] and probing depth [PD]) and radiographic (crestal bone resorption [CBR]) around cement- and screw-retained dental implants at 5 years’ follow-up. A questionnaire was used to collect information about age, gender, smoking history, duration of implants in function, jaw location of the implant, and daily toothbrushing and flossing. Peri-implant BoP, PD and CBR were measured in all groups. Group comparisons were performed using one-way analysis of variance and for multiple comparisons, the Bonferroni Post hoc adjustment test was performed. Level of significance was set at P&lt;0.05. Forty-eight patients (25 smokers and 23 non-smokers) had cement-retained dental implants; and 48 (24 smokers and 24 non-smokers) had screw-retained dental implants. Among patients with cement and screw-retained dental implants, PD (P&lt;0.05) and CBR (P&lt;0.05) were significantly higher among smokers than non-smokers. The peri-implant sites that demonstrated BoP were statistically significantly higher among non-smokers (P&lt;0.05) than smokers among patients with cement- and screw-retained dental implants. There was no statistically significant difference in peri-implant PD and CBR among smokers with cement- and screw-retained dental implants. Among non-smokers with cement and screw-retained dental implants, there was no statistically significant difference in BoP, PD and CBR. Cigarette-smoking is associated with an increased PD and CBR around cement- and screw-retained dental implants. Cigarette-smoking increases peri-implant soft tissue inflammation as well as loss of crestal bone and this relationship is independent of the type of implant retention protocol used.The author recommends that cement- and screw-retained dental implants are suitable for prosthesis restoration in non-smokers. Further studies on dual-smokers (individuals smoking cigarettes and other forms of tobacco products) are needed related to the clinicoradiographic inflammatory parameters around cement- and screw-retained dental implants
