Abstract: Stainless steel bracket, a popular fixed orthodontic appliance containing chromium and nickel, is used most frequently in fixed orthodontic treatment. Stainless steel bracket interacts with oral cavity environment and causes metal corrosion process. The released chromium and nickel due to the corrosion process can get into the body and cause hypersensitivity reactions. This study aimed to determine the release of chromium and nickel from stainless steel bracket in artificial saliva. This was an experimental laboratory study with a quasy experimental and nonequivalent control group design. Samples were analyzed by using spectrophotometry ultraviolet visible (UV-Vis) to determine the releasing of chromium and nickel. There were 4 kinds of stainless steel bracket immersed and stored in artifisial saliva at 37oC for 30 days. The result showed that each sample varied in the release of chromium and nickel from stainless steel brackets in the artificial saliva. Sample A had 0.025 ppm chromium and 0.689 ppm nickel; sample B had 0.002 ppm chromium and 1.012 ppm nickel; sample C had 0.008 ppm chromium and 1.130 ppm nickel; and sample D had 0.027 ppm chromium and 1.176 ppm nickel. The release of nickel of each sample was higher than of chromium. There was no specific pattern of the release of chromium and nickel due to the different composition of stainless steel brackets which depend on the manufacturers.Keywords: stainless steel bracket, chromium, nickel, spectrophotometry UV-Vis, artificial salivaAbstrak: Braket stainless steel sering digunakan dalam perawatan ortodonti cekat yang umumnya mengandung kromium dan nikel.

Triglycerides are source of energy in the body, but triglyceride deposits that exceed the threshold will cause health problems, so triglycerides should be lowered to normal. The reduction of triglycerides can be done through physical activity, therefore this study aims to reveal the effect of regular swimming exercises and irregular exercises against triglyceride levels. This research is an experimental research using The Post Test Only Control Group Design design. Subjects of the study were male of Rattus Norvegicus Wistar, 39 subjects was divided into 3 groups with Matched Subject Design technique, which consisted of 2 groups of treatment that is regular and irregular group, and control group. The exercise program was given a swimming with a 3% weight of body weight and was tied 5 cm from the tip of the tail which was performed 3 times per week consistently for regular exercise and 0 to 5 times per week inconsistently for irregular exercise for 12 weeks, While the control group was not given training. In the last week before the blood was taken, the first three groups were given swimming treatment exercises. Based on the results of the anava test, there was a significant difference in the reduction of triglyceride levels among white mice who were given regular exercise with irregular exercise. These results suggest that regular exercise has a better impact on triglyceride reduction than irregular exercise, due to the higher adaptation process of regular exercise.

ABSTRACT Background: Emesis gravidarum can get worse into hyperemesis gravidarum which causes the body to become weaker, paler, and the frequency of urination decreases. As a result, decreased body fluids and hemoconcentration of blood can cause tissue damage. Non pharmacological treatment is very important because it reduces the pharmacological effects that appear in pregnant women. The herbal therapy that has been proven to be beneficial is the administration of peppermint, but research on the effects of Pamelo fruit related to nausea and vomiting in pregnant women is still rare.Objective: To determine the comparison of the effectiveness of peppermint and Pomelo orange on the intensity of nausea and vomiting in pregnant womenMethods: The research design was a quasi experimental study with a pretest posttest control group design approach. The number of samples was 24 pregnant women who were grouped into 3 groups.Results: The average intensity of nausea and vomiting in the peppermint group at pretest was 2.38 and decreased at posttest to 1 with P-value 0.004. The intensity of nausea and vomiting in the Pomelo group at pretest was 6.38, falling to 1.75 at posttest with P-value 0.000. The result of further test showed that there was no significant difference in the intensity of nausea and vomiting between the two groups with Sig. 0.428.Conclusion: Peppermint and pomelo are effective in reducing the intensity of nausea and vomiting in trimester I pregnant women.Suggestion : This research needs to be refined by enlarging the research sample and measuring the intensity of nausea and vomiting can be done every day during the study considering that this study only measured twice the number of 24 respondents. Keywords : Nausea, Vomiting, Pregnancy, Peppermint, Pomelo ABSTRAK Latar Belakang : Emesis gravidarum dapat bertambah berat menjadi hiperemesis gravidarum yang mengakibatkan tubuh semakin lemah, pucat, dan frekuensi buang air kecil menurun. Akibatnya cairan tubuh berkurang dan hemokonsentrasi darah yang dapat menimbulkan kerusakan jaringan. Pengobatan non farmakolgis sangat penting karena mengurangi efek farmakologis yang muncul pada ibu hamil. Terapi herbal yang sudah terbukti bermanfaat adalah pemberian peppermint, namun penelitian efek buah Pamelo yang berkaitan dengan mual muntah pada ibu hamil masih jarang.Tujuan Penelitian : Untuk mengetahui  perbandingan efektifitas pemberian peppermint dan Jeruk Pomelo terhadap intensitas  mual dan  muntah pada ibu hamilMetode Penelitian : Rancangan penelitian ini adalah quasi experimental dengan pendekatan pretest posttest control group design. Jumlah sampel  adalah sebanyak 24 orang ibu hamil yang dikelompokkan kedalam 3 kelompok.Hasil Penelitian : Rata-rata intensitas mual muntah pada kelompok peppermint saat pretest adalah 2,38 dan menurun pada saat posttest menjadi 1 dengan P-value 0,004. Intensitas mual muntah kelompok Pomelo pada pretest adalah 6.38 turun menjadi 1,75 pada saat posttest dengan P-value 0,000. Hasil uji lanjut didapatkan tidak ada perbedaan bermakna intensitas mual muntah antara kedua kelompok dengan Sig. 0,428.Kesimpulan : Pemberian Peppermint dan pomelo efektif dalam menurunkan intensitas mual dan muntah pada ibu hamil trimester I.Saran : Penelitian ini perlu disempurnakan dengan memperbesar sampel penelitian dan pengukuran intensitas mual muntah dapat dilakukan setiap hari selama penelitian mengingat penelitian ini hanya mengukur sebanyak dua kali pada 24 responden. Kata kunci : Mual, Muntah, Kehamilan, Peppermint, Pomelo
