Periodontitis adalah penyakit inflamasi yang menyebabkan kerusakanjaringan periodontal dan menyebabkan kehilangan gigi. Periodontitismerupakan penyebab utama terjadinya resorpsi tulang alveolar. Asamusnat yang berasal dari kandungan kayu angin diketahui mengandungantibakteri, antiinflamasi, dan antijamur yang dapat digunakan sebagaibahan obat-obatan. Asam usnat adalah antibiotik spektrum luas dankandungannya dapat diperoleh dari lichen dan dapat menghambatbakteri patogen. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahuipengaruh pemberian asam usnat terhadap jumlah sel osteoblas padatikus periodontitis. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalaheksperimental laboratorium dengan rancangan control group post testonly design. Penelitian ini menggunakan tikus putih jantan (Rattusnorvegicus) sebanyak 24 ekor. Tikus dikelompokan menjadi 4kelompok yang masing-masingnya terdiri dari 6 ekor dan dibagi dalamdua priode hari untuk dekapitasi pada hari ke-7 dan hari ke-14 sehinggadidapatkan sampel tiap kelompok menjadi 3 ekor. Tikus diinduksiperiodontitis dengan benang silk ligature 3,0 kemudian diberikan asamusnat gel dengan konsentrasi 2,04% dan 6,06%. Hasil penelitian inimenunjukan rerata jumlah sel osteoblas berbeda bermakna (p<0,05)pada setiap kelompok penelitian. Pemberian asam usnat 6,06%menunjukan rerata sehat (kelompok kontrol negatif). Hal inidisebabkan karna adanya kandungan antiinflamasi dan antibakteri dariasam usnat. Disimpulkan bahwa terdapat pengaruh pemberian asamusnat terhadap jumlah sel osteoblas pada tikus periodontitis dimanaasam usnat dengan konsentrasi 6,06% lebih efektif dibandingkan asamusnat dengan konsentrasi 2,04%.

Short-term Christian overseas volunteer trips, also known as short-term mission trips (STMs), have become increasingly prevalent (Howell & Dorr, 2007). However, research on these programs has been limited. This quasi-experimental study adds to the literature by quantitatively measuring the effects of an STM from Singapore to Thailand. STM recipients’ ( n = 44) self-esteem and readiness for self-directed learning (RSDL) were compared across timepoints – pre-test, post-test, follow-up – and with a control group ( n = 50). It was hypothesized that recipients would experience an increase in self-esteem and RSDL such that their scores would be higher than the control group post-STM. Results provide partial support for the hypotheses; while improvements among recipients were either not significant (for self-esteem) or not long-lasting (for RSDL), recipients had higher scores than the control group post-STM. This suggests that STMs have some, albeit limited, positive effects. Recommendations for promoting greater and longer-lasting effects are offered.

Recovery of lower extremity (LE) function in chronic stroke patients is considered a barrier to community reintegration. An adequate training program is required to improve neural and functional performance of the affected LE in chronic stroke patients. The current study aimed to evaluate the effect of somatosensory rehabilitation on neural and functional recovery of LE in stroke patients. Thirty male and female patients were recruited and randomized to equal groups: control group (GI) and intervention group (GII). All patients were matched for age, duration of stroke, and degree of motor impairment of the affected LE. Both groups received standard program of physical therapy in addition to somatosensory rehabilitation for GII. The duration of treatment for both groups was eight consecutive weeks. Outcome measures used were Functional Independent Measure (FIM) and Quantitative Electroencephalography (QEEG), obtained pre- and post-treatment. A significant improvement was found in the FIM scores of the intervention group (GII), as compared to the control group (GI) (p < 0.001). Additionally, QEEG scores improved within the intervention group post-treatment. QEEG scores did not improve within the control group post-treatment, except for “Cz-AR”, compared to pretreatment, with no significant difference between groups. Adding somatosensory training to standard physical therapy program results in better improvement of neuromuscular control of LE function in chronic stroke patients.

Background: The role of the learning methods is changing from teacher centered learning to student centered learning (SCL). One of the SCL methods is collaborative and cooperative learning. The past twenty years have seen an increase in collaborative and cooperative learning based pedagogies in colleges, but not in community based health education. The aim of this study is to identify the efectivity of collaborative and cooperative learning in community based health educationMethod: This research used quasi experimental non-randomized control group post test design. Respondent of the research are 111 geriatric cadres of Kecamatan Kepanjen and 72 geriatric cadres of Kecamatan Singosari.Results: Data shows that cadre’s knowledge in first training, 30 and 90 days after first training increased in both groups (p<0,001). There is no relationship between individual characteristic (age, education, occupation, time to work as a cadre, training) and increase of knowledge (p>0,05).Conclusion: Collaborative and cooperative method can increase cadre’s knowledge of stroke effectively and maintain memory retention longer than conventional method.

Background: The consumption of Fe tablets needs to be the attention of midwives as one of the spearheads in providing antenatal care services. Due to the low level of compliance of pregnant women to consume Fe tablets, it is necessary to provide appropriate counseling as an effort to increase compliance with Fe tablets. Objective: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the application model (Sumiferos) for preventing anemia with pregnant women compliance in consuming Fe tablets at Putri Ayu Health Center in Jambi city. Materials and methods: This study used a quasi-experimental research design with a post-test design by involving an intervention group and a control group (post-test), two group designs. With the total of 70 subjects;the intervention group, 35 respondents were given a website application (sumiferos), and a control group 35 respondents were given a leflet. After a month, the number of Fe tablets that have been consumed was monitored. Compliance of pregnant women in consuming Fe tablets required a monitoring or supervisioncarried out by health workers. Therefore, an intervention was given by using a website-based application (sumiferos) for pregnant women as a communication tool that has been created and designed previously by researchers. Results: Posttest statistical analysis showed that pregnant women who were given a website application (sumiferos) in the intervention group showed better compliance than pregnant women in the control group given lefket. Conclusion: Based on the results,a website application (sumiferos) is more effective than leaflets in improving maternal compliance to consume Fe tablets given by health workers.

The Interior Design courses emphasizing accuracy requires high learning motivation. One stimulus to grow motivation is by applying teaching methods that are in accordance with the characteristics of the course, namely cyber learning methods that also facilitate accuracy and efficiency. The purpose of this research is to improve learning motivation in interior design courses through cyber learning methods employing steps of project-based learning (PjBL). The study included quasiexperiments using two-group post test design. The instrument of learning motivation was adapted from McClelland’s motivational theory. The number of participants was 60 students divided in two groups. The first students group learned by using conventional methods (control group), while the second students group learned by using cyber methods (experimental group). The number of learning was 10 meetings. After completing the meetings, the two groups were measured based on the learning motivation. The results of the study indicate that cyber learning methods can increase student’s learning motivation in interior design courses. Result shows that the experimental group of students has higher learning motivation than students in control group who were leaved uninterfered with the conventional method—the lectures.

Objective To determine the effectiveness of a cognitive behaviour language therapy (CBLT) programme to reduce speech anxiety among stuttering school adolescents. Methods This was a group randomized clinical trial that enrolled stuttering school adolescents who had severe speech anxiety. The participants were randomized to either the treatment group or the control group. The Speech Anxiety Thoughts Inventory (SATI) score was recorded before and after a 12-week CBLT programme was delivered in 24 group sessions to the treatment group. The control group did not receive any therapy. Results A total of 92 stuttering school adolescents who met the inclusion criteria were randomized to the treatment group ( n = 46; 22 males, 24 females; mean ± SD age, 16.36 ± 2.20 years) or the control group ( n = 46; 28 males, 18 females; mean ± SD age, 15.45 ± 2.10 years). Results showed that the CBLT intervention significantly reduced speech anxiety among stuttering school adolescents compared with the control group (post-test SATI assessment, mean ± SD 26.52 ± 1.67 versus 89.92 ± 3.17, respectively). Conclusion These findings suggest that speech educators and therapists in educational institutions and hospitals should follow the principles of CBLT when treating speech anxiety.
