Topicality. Recently, more and more works on the hepatotoxicity of NSAIDs have appeared in the literature. Presumably, all NSAIDs have hepatotoxicity, but the degree of adverse effects on the liver in different drugs is variable. Aim. To study the effect of different generations of NSAIDs on the functional state of the liver of the experimental animals. Materials and methods. Diclofenac sodium, piroxicam, indomethacin, meloxicam and celecocosib were selected for the comparative study. Changes in the functional state of the liver of intact rats during subchronic administration of the drugs selected, as well as their impact on the course of the model hepatitis were determined. The state of the liver was determined by the following indicators: the mass coefficient of the liver, the activity of alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, the content of total protein, urea, cholesterol in the blood serum, the level of TBA-active products, diene conjugates, reduced glutathione, catalase and glycogen in the liver homogenate. Results and discussion. It was found that diclofenac, piroxicam, indomethacin in the doses of ED50 by the antiexudative activity when used for 14 days adversely affected the liver of intact animals, as well as worsened the course of the model hepatitis, i.e. had a pronounced hepatotoxic effect. Meloxicam and celecoxib did not show a pronounced adverse effect in the carbon tetrachloride hepatitis, but contributed to the deterioration of the functional state of the liver of intact rats, i.e. had a moderate hepatotoxic effect. Conclusions. By the level of hepatotoxicity the drugs studied can be arranged as follows: diclofenac > indomethacin > piroxicam > meloxicam > celecoxib.

The Comparative Study

Abstract: This research is a comparative literary study that uses Malay and Javanese versions of Mahabarata text sources. The research objects used were the text edition of Pandhawa Gubah (PG) by Sudibjo Z. Hadisutjipto and the text of Cheritera Pandawa Lima (CPL) by Khalid Hussain. The research method used is descriptive-analysis method. In the comparative study used a comparative literary theory proposed by Endraswara (2011). The results of the text comparison reveal the similarities and differences in the image of Bima figures in the Javanese and Malay versions. The equation as a whole is that both texts contain the same heroic storyline and heroic character, Bima. In addition, Indian influence is still evident in the two texts seen from the nuances of Hinduism that exist in both texts. While the difference is seen in the events that accompany Bima's struggle in achieving his victory. Based on these similarities and differences, it can be seen that the authors attempt to represent the concept of metaphysical interactions vertically and horizontally expressed through PG text. --- Abstrak: Penelitian ini adalah satu kajian sastra bandingan yang menggunakan sumber teks Mahabarata versi Melayu dan Jawa. Objek penelitian yang digunakan adalah edisi teks Pandhawa Gubah (PG) karya Sudibjo Z. Hadisutjipto dan teks Cheritera Pandawa Lima (CPL) karya Khalid Hussain. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode deskriptif-analisis. Dalam telaah perbandingan digunakan teori sastra bandingan yang dikemukakan Endraswara (2011). Hasil perbandingan teks mengungkapkan adanya persamaan dan perbedaan citra tokoh Bima dalam versi Jawa maupun versi Melayu. Persamaan secara keseluruhan adalah kedua teks tersebut mengandung alur cerita kepahlawanan dan tokoh pahlawan yang sama yaitu Bima. Selain itu, pengaruh India masih tampak dalam kedua teks tersebut dilihat dari nuansa Hinduisme yang ada dalam kedua teks. Sementara perbedaannya tampak pada peristiwa-peristiwa yang menyertai perjuangan Bima dalam mencapai kemenangannya. Berdasarkan persamaan dan perbedaan tersebut tampak adanya upaya penulis untuk merepresentasikan konsep interaksi metafisik secara vertikal dan horizontal yang diungkapkan melalui teks PG.

The research would look further at the representation of the human body in both Balinese and Javanese traditional houses and compared the function and meaning of each part. To achieve the research aim, which was to evaluate and compare the representation of the human body in Javanese and Balinese traditional houses, a qualitative method through literature and descriptive analysis study was conducted. A comparative study approach would be used with an in-depth comparative study. It would revealed not only the similarities but also the differences between both subjects. The research shows that both traditional houses represent the human body in their way. From the architectural drawing top to bottom, both houses show the same structure that is identical to the human body; head at the top, followed by the body, and feet at the bottom. However, the comparative study shows that each area represents a different meaning. The circulation of the house is also different, while the Balinese house is started with feet and continued to body and head area. Simultaneously, the Javanese house is started with the head, then continued to body, and feet area.
