Dysmenorrhea is a condition of a woman who experiences pain during menstruation which has a bad effect and causes disturbances in carrying out daily activities because of the pain. The pain arises due to the presence of the hormone prostaglandin which makes the uterine muscle (womb) contract. If not handled properly, it can reduce the quality of life of women. Treatment of dysmenorrhea can be by giving carrot juice. The content of beta-carotene and vitamin E in carrots can provide analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects that can help block the formation of prostaglandins and overcome the increase in the hormone prostaglandin, which is a hormone that affects dysmenorrhea. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of giving carrot juice to the intensity of dysmenorrhea in midwifery students at Pasir Pengaraian University, Rambah Hilir District, Rokan Hulu Regency. This research method is quantitative analytic with pre-experimental research design with one group pre-test and post-test design. Collecting data using a checklist while data analysis using the T- Dependent test. The sample in this study amounted to 20 female respondents who experienced dysmenorrhea. The results of the data analysis of the average decrease in the intensity of dysmenorrhea before being given carrot juice was 3.65 with a standard deviation of 0.93 and a standard error of 0.20. In the measurement after giving carrot juice, the average pain intensity was 0.30 with a standard deviation of 0.47 and a standard error of 0.10. In conclusion, there was an effect of giving carrot juice to decrease the intensity of dysmenorrhea in midwifery students at Pasir Pengaraian University, Rambah Hilir District, Rokan Hulu Regency with (p value = 0.001). Suggestions for women who experience dysmenorrhea to be able to consume carrot juice. Because the administration of carrot juice can reduce the intensity of dysmenorrhea in women and can be used as an alternative therapy.

Mineralization of various degrees was found in the brains of 79 (59%) of 134 cynomolgus monkeys ( Macaca fascicularis). There was no age dependency in the incidence or severity, nor were there any abnormalities in growth, weight gain, or neurologic signs, although a slight sex difference was observed. The lesions, which were basophilic and intensely positive for periodic acid-Schiff or von Kossa stain, occurred in the vascular walls of the globus pallidus in two types: globoid bodies with prominent concentric lamellar structures in and around the arteriolar and venular wall (type A) and fine granules in the media of small or medium-sized arteries (type B). Electron microscopic examination revealed dense deposits in the degenerated media of small or medium-sized arteries or the thickened walls of the arterioles. X-ray microanalysis demonstrated the presence of calcium, phosphorus, iron, zine, magnesium, and aluminum.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the utility of a redesigned course assessment in a required, introductory Master of Public Health (MPH) course to demonstrate competency achievement through practical application. School of public health curricula are informed by competency-based education (CBE) to prepare students for the field. This is a challenge in introductory courses as traditional assessments do not translate into practical application of knowledge. Design/methodology/approach – This retrospective post-test-only evaluation examined a practice-based, multi-disciplinary assessment utilized in Fall 2014 (n = 63 students). Web-based surveys were administered three months after the course to participating students (n = 33), the teaching team or teaching teams (n = 7) and organization representatives (n = 3) to evaluate the utility of the assessment. Questions were analyzed descriptively using chi-square tests, where applicable responses were compared across groups. Findings – Results indicate that a practice-based assessment in an introductory MPH course may enhance student learning by fostering deeper appreciation and application of course content while more closely reflecting the collaborative, multi-disciplinary and problem-solving nature of practice. The assessment may also increase the depth of competency achievement and career preparedness. Practical implications – Institutions that are guided by CBE, train students for multi-disciplinary practice and are impacted by the changing landscape of the field may want to consider course assessments that mimic practice to best prepare students. Originality/value – Course assessments should be evaluated to ensure they appropriately measure competency achievement. This evaluation provides multiple perspectives on the process and outcome of a practice-based course assessment.

The effects of the vitamins dl-alpha-tocopherol, ascorbic acid and beta-carotene, free radical scavengers and lipid peroxidation inhibitors, were analyzed in male Wistar rats made goitrous by feeding a low iodine diet (< 20 micrograms iodine/kg) and perchlorate (1% in drinking water) for 4, 8, 16, and 32 days. Groups of control or goitrous rats received for at least 16 days before killing a diet containing 0.6% vitamin E (as dl-alpha-tocopherol acetate), 1.2% vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and 0.48% beta-carotene, either simultaneously (vitamin cocktail) or separately. This treatment led to a 5-fold increase of vitamin E in the thyroid gland, a 24-fold increase in the liver and a 3-fold increase in the plasma. In control rats, vitamin cocktail administration increased slightly the thyroid weight with little changes in thyroid function parameters. During iodine deficiency, administration of the vitamin cocktail or vitamin E alone reduced significantly the rate of increase in thyroid weight, and DNA and protein contents, as well as the proportion of [3H]thymidine labeled thyroid follicular cells, but not that of labeled endothelial cells. Plasma tri-iodothyronine, thyroxine, TSH levels, thyroid iodine content and concentration as well as relative volumes of glandular compartments were not modified. The proportion of necrotic cells rose from 0.5% in normal animals to about 2% after 16 days of goiter development. No significant protective effect of the vitamins was observed. These results suggest that these vitamins, particularly vitamin E, modulate one of the regulatory cascades involved in the control of thyroid follicular cell growth, without interfering with the proliferation of endothelial cells.

AbstractThe objective of the present study was to evaluate intakes and serum levels of vitamin A, vitamin E, and related compounds in a cohort of maternal–infant pairs in the Midwestern USA in relation to measures of health disparities. Concentrations of carotenoids and tocopherols in maternal serum were measured using HPLC and measures of socio-economic status, including food security and food desert residence, were obtained in 180 mothers upon admission to a Midwestern Academic Medical Center labour and delivery unit. The Kruskal–Wallis and independent-samples t tests were used to compare measures between groups; logistic regression models were used to adjust for relevant confounders. P < 0·05 was considered statistically significant. The odds of vitamin A insufficiency/deficiency were 2·17 times higher for non-whites when compared with whites (95 % CI 1·16, 4·05; P = 0·01) after adjustment for relevant confounders. Similarly, the odds of being vitamin E deficient were 3·52 times higher for non-whites (95 % CI 1·51, 8·10; P = 0·003). Those with public health insurance had lower serum lutein concentrations compared with those with private health insurance (P = 0·05), and living in a food desert was associated with lower serum concentrations of β-carotene (P = 0·02), after adjustment for confounders. Subjects with low/marginal food security had higher serum levels of lutein and β-cryptoxanthin compared with those with high food security (P = 0·004 and 0·02 for lutein and β-cryptoxanthin). Diet quality may be a public health concern in economically disadvantaged populations of industrialised societies leading to nutritional disadvantages as well.

Infant Mortality in Bengkulu Province is still high, this can be prevented through breastfeeding as a staple food in infants 0-6 months without other complementary foods because breast milk boosts immune status for infants and thus can reduce mobility and mortality rates but exclusive ASI coverage still low, this is influenced by pralactal feeding in infants 0-3 days of birth. Research Objective to increase knowledge and attitude of cadre through training as promotion effort of prevention of pralactal food in 0-3 days old baby. Quasi pre and post test experiments with comparison groups. The study population were all cadres in Talang Tinggi Public Health Center, which were 50 people in Talang Tinggi Public Health Center, Seluma District with experimental group samples were cadres who were given training by using module and control group were cadres who were trained by using lecture and question and answer method. There is an average difference of attitude and knowledge before and after intervention in the cadres given training on prevention of pralactal food in infants 0-3 days. There is an effect of training on prevention efforts of pralactal feeding using modules with cadre attitude. Puskesmas should increase the promotion of prevention of pralactal food to change cadre attitude to support program exclusive breastfeeding.
