Food additives are materials added to food to affect the nature or shape of the food. These condiments can cause adverse effects on health if being consumed every day more than the amount in mg/Kg body weight. In addition, there are food additives that are prohibited, such as boric acid, formalin, salicylic acid, and others. The lack of understanding of junior high school (SMP) students regarding food additives that are allowed and prohibited cause students to be more likely exposed to foods that contain harmful substances that will accumulate or cause negative effects in the long term. This Community Service Activity aims to improve the understanding of School Health Unit (UKS) cadre students regarding food additives and balanced nutrition. This activity was attended by students from SMPN 1 Singosari, SMP 4 Muhammadiyah Singosari, and SMP Islam Bani Hasyim Singosari. Before and after the counseling material regarding food additives and balanced nutrition, the level of understanding was measured using pre and post-tests. The test results were then analyzed using independent T-test statistics with a confidence level of 95. The results of this activity indicate that there is an increase in participants' knowledge (40%) about food additives and balanced nutrition. Counseling is one of the ways to increase students' understanding of food additives as food safety and balanced nutrition is important to support growth and development.

e12550 Background: BC is still one of the main causes of death in women due to the tumor recurrence and/or resistance to anticancer therapy. The criteria to assess the effectiveness of BC treatment are important. The purpose of the study was to analyze blood levels of steroid and pituitary hormones in BC patients after two chemotherapy cycles. Methods: The study included 42 patients with various biological BC subtypes: luminal A, luminal B and triple-negative BC (TNBC). Levels of estradiol, testosterone, progesterone, prolactin, LH, FSH and cortisol were measured by RIA in the blood of all patients before and after two neoadjuvant chemotherapy cycles. Significance of differences was evaluated by the Student’s t-test. Results: Levels of many hormones were high before the treatment in patients with all BC subtypes. After two chemotherapy cycles, unidirectional changes in the values were found in patients with subsequent remission for more than three years. Levels of estradiol decreased in luminal A BC by 1.7 times (p˂0.05), in luminal B BC – by 11.6 times (p˂0.05), cortisol decreased by 2.4 and 1.7 times (p˂0.05) respectively, and prolactin – on average by three times (p˂0.05). LH levels increased in luminal A and luminal B BC by 1.65 times (p˂0.05). In patients with TNBC, levels of estradiol decreased by 1.8 times, and cortisol – by two times (p˂0.05). Patients with subsequent remission regardless of BC subtypes had unchanged levels of testosterone, progesterone and FSH. Patients with luminal B and TNBC subtypes with progression in 6-12 months did not show significant changes in prolactin and cortisol levels after two chemotherapy cycles, compared with the values before treatment. Conclusions: A decrease in blood levels of prolactin and cortisol after two chemotherapy cycles is an indicator of a long-term remission in patients with breast cancer.

The definition of hypertension or high blood pressure is a condition when blood pressure reaches a value of ≥ 140/90 mmHg. If not treated immediately, hypertension can cause serious life-threatening diseases, such as heart failure, kidney disease, and stroke. During the Covid-19 pandemic which has been going on since the beginning of 2020, most government health facilities have become centers for handling Covid 19 patients. So it is difficult for patients other than Covid 19 to come for treatment. Depok has a fairly high number of hypertensive patients and is currently having problems with regular check-ups at the puskesmas. This can make it difficult to control the condition of hypertension patients, apart from the puskesmas being the first service center for Covid-19 patients, the risk of contracting Covid-19 is also high if the patient comes to the puskesmas for control. Various studies on family empowerment in treating hypertensive patients have become one of the basics for our community service team to educate respondents who have family members with hypertension. This community service activity aims to increase knowledge about hypertension and how to control it in respondents so that family empowerment in treating hypertension patients can be improved. To determine the level of understanding of respondents on educational materials, questionnaires were filled out before and after education. The results achieved in this activity is an increase in respondents' knowledge about hypertension and how to control it with family participation. Hipertensi (tekanan darah tinggi) adalah kondisi tekanan darah mencapai nilai ≥ 140/90 mmHg. Hipertensi dapat mengakibatkan beberapa penyakit yang mengancam nyawa, seperti gagal jantung, penyakit ginjal, dan stroke, jika tidak segera ditangani. Pandemi Covid-19 yang sudah berlangsung sejak awal tahun 2020 memaksa sebagian besar fasilitas kesehatan milik pemerintah menjadi pusat penanganan pasien Covid-19. Sehingga menjadi masalah bagi pasien selain Covid-19 untuk datang berobat. Depok memiliki angka pasien hipertensi yang cukup tinggi dan saat ini terkendala untuk kontrol rutin ke puskesmas. Hal ini dapat mengakibatkan sulitnya mengontrol kondisi pasien hipertensi selain puskesmas menjadi pusat layanan pertama untuk pasien Covid-19, risiko tertular Covid-19 juga tinggi apabila pasien datang ke puskesmas untuk kontrol. Berbagai penelitian mengenai pemberdayaan keluarga dalam merawat pasien hipertensi menjadi salah satu dasar tim pengabdi untuk melakukan edukasi kepada responden yang mempunyai anggota keluarga penderita hipertensi. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini mempunyai tujuan meningkatkan pengetahuan tentang penyakit hipertensi dan cara mengendalikannya pada responden sehingga pemberdayaan keluarga dalam merawat pasien hipertensi dapat ditingkatkan. Untuk mengetahui tingkat pemahaman responden atas materi edukasi dilakukan pengisian kuesioner sebelum dan sesudah edukasi. Hasil yang dicapai pada kegiatan ini adalah peningkatan pengetahuan responden tentang penyakit hipertensi dan cara pengendaliannya dengan peran serta keluarga.

Survey Review

Abstract Aim We assessed patient perceptions of hand trauma management through a plastic surgery trauma clinic. We also assessed effects of educating patients about outcomes of their condition on their desire to have prompt surgery. Method A prospective survey review was conducted at our plastic surgery trauma clinic. Patients included were those referred due to simple hand trauma. Any patients needing urgent admissions were excluded. An anonymous survey assessing patient perceptions before and after education about delay in surgery was distributed. Results Of 100 patients, there were mixed expectations regarding trauma clinic; 38% (n = 38) expect an operation, 32% (n = 32) expect no operation and 30% (n = 30) expect either option. 90% (n = 90) expect surgery within a week (50% n = 50) or within a day (40% n = 40); 10% expect it (n = 10) within a few weeks. After educating patients about no negative effects on their condition from surgical delay, 43% (n = 17) fewer patients desired surgery within a day, and 8% (n = 3) fewer patients desired surgery within a week. 190% (n = 19) more patients were willing to have surgery within a few weeks. 79% (n = 79) would rather come back at a guaranteed surgical slot than stay in hospital until a slot is available. 72% (n = 72) considered knowledge about long-term outcomes associated with surgical delay to influence their decision more than anaesthetic type (12% n = 12) and personal circumstances (16% n = 16). Conclusions If appropriate patients are assured that their condition will not be affected by surgical delay, fewer patients may stay in hospital with financial benefits of reduced bed occupancy and reduced covid risks.

Abstract Borax is one of food additives that has been prohibited from being used by the Indonesian Government because it is dangerous to health. However, the fact is that borax has been widely added to several food products, such as skewered meatballs, school children’s snacks, bread, meatballs, tofu and crackers. Crackers containing borax is easily found in traditional markets. Short-term consumption of borax can cause various symptoms such as headache, fever, malaise, nausea or vomiting, pain in the upper abdomen and diarrhea. While long-term exposure to borax will have a more dangerous effect, which can cause stomach disorders, seizures to acute kidney failure which can lead to death. This paper reports a simple, easy and inexpensive test of borax content using a home-made turmeric paper on ten types of crackers purchased randomly in traditional market. The aim is that the borax content test can be carried out by anyone only by buying a few ingredients from the local market and pharmacy, and without the need to involve laboratory tests, but with accurate results when compared to laboratory tests. As a comparison, a flame test and a colour test on the borax content carried out in the laboratorium using the AOAC 18 ed. 2005 Official Method Boric Acid & Borates in Food 970.33 and the FI ed. V of 2014 General Identification Test <291> Borat method A on Page 1423 was also completed. Among the 10 crackers tested, six of them were detected to contain borax. These results are very consistent with the laboratory test results. The performance of the home made turmeric paper is therefore reliable.

This research was designed to find out the effects of vocabulary analogy to reading comprehension of seventh grade students of State Junior High School 9, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Specifically it sought to answer the following questions: 1) How is the effects in reading comprehension of the students taught with  Vocabulary  Analogy  or  without  vocabulary  analogy?  2)  Is  there  a significant difference in the reading comprehension between the control and experimental groups based on the pre-test and post-test results? A test was conducted for control and experimental groups before and after the treatment process. T-test was computed to reveal whether there was a significant  difference in  the pre-test  and post-test results of the control and experimental groups. Findings of the research were: 1) The use of vocabulary analogy improved students’ reading comprehension 2) The computed T value based from the results of pre-test in the control and experimental groups is 0.130,  lower  than  T  tabular  value  of  1.996.  This  result  accepts  the  null hypothesis that there is no significant difference in the results of pre-test of control and experimental groups. Moreover, treatments were given to control and experimental groups after the pre-test, control group was taught without vocabulary analogy and experimental group was taught with vocabulary analogy before the post-test for each group. The computed T value in the post-test of the control and experimental groups is 11.15, higher than T tabular value of 1.996 at5% level significance. This result rejects the null hypothesis that there is no significant difference in the results of pre-test and post-test of control and experimental groups. Based on findings, the following conclusions were drawn: 1) The use of vocabulary  analogy  had  significantly  influenced  students’  reading comprehension particularly of the experimental group 2) There is significant difference in the post-test results of the control and experimental groups. Null hypothesis was rejected since the computed T value was higher than the T tabular value.
