Abstract: Oral and tooth problem that often occurs is caries worldwide. According to Riset Kesehatan Dasar (Baseline Health Research) in 2018, the largest proportion of oral and tooth problems in Indonesia is caries (45,3%). Caries could be caused inter alia by the presence of bacterial accumulation attached to plaque. One of the ways to control plaque is xylitol chewing gum which is proven to be quite effective in cleaning teeth from debris and plaque, preventing periodontal diseases, increasing salivary pH, and stimulating saliva excretion. This study was aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of xylitol chewing gum in reducing plaque. This was a literature review study using two databases, namely Google Scholar and Indonesia One Search. The results showed that samples used in the literatures were 10-24 years old. The xylitol doses used were 3.4 g/day, 4.05 g/day, 6 g/day, and 45 g/day. Xylitol dose below 3.4 g/day was not effective and dose above 10 g/day was less effective to reduce S. mutans. In conclusion, xylitol chewing gum at a dose of 3.4 g-10 g per day is quite effective in reducing plaque.Keywords: xylitol chewing gum; dental plaque Abstrak: Masalah kesehatan gigi dan mulut khususnya karies merupakan penyakit yang dialami oleh sebagian besar penduduk di dunia. Riset Kesehatan Dasar (RISKESDAS) pada tahun 2018 menyatakan bahwa proporsi terbesar masalah gigi dan mulut di Indonesia ialah karies (45,3%). Penyebab terjadinya karies ialah antara lain adanya kumpulan bakteri yang terikat dalam plak. Salah satu pengendalian plak ialah dengan tindakan mengunyah permen karet xylitol yang terbukti cukup efektif membersihkan gigi dari debris dan plak, mencegah terjadinya penyakit periodontal, meningkatkan pH saliva, dan merangsang pengeluaran saliva. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengulas efektivitas permen karet xylitol dalam menurunkan plak. Jenis penelitian ialah literature review dengan menggunakan dua database yaitu Google Scholar dan Indonesia One Search. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan bahwa kelompok eksperimen penelitian yang dikaji berkisar 10-24 tahun. Dosis xylitol yang dipakai dalam penelitian berkisar 3,4 gr/hari, 4,05 gr, 6 gr/hari, dan 45 gr per hari. Dosis xylitol di bawah 3,4 gr/hari tidak efektif dan dosis yang melebihi 10 gr/hari juga kurang efektif terhadap reduksi S. mutans. Simpulan penelitian ini ialah mengunyah permen karet xylitol dengan dosis 3,4 gr-10 gr per hari cukup efektif dalam menurunkan plak.Kata kunci: permen karet xylitol; plak

AbstractAsthma causes narrowing of the airways, which leads to various symptoms such as whezzing, coughing, and shortness of breath (dyspnea) in sufferers. Patients with asthma often complain of experiencing sudden shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, and pain when taking a breath. These conditions can causes the patient to become stressed, anxious and the breathing pattern in no longer effective. As a result, the prognosis of disease is poor. The purpose of this literature review study was to picture the frequency of breathing in asthma patients.This literature review highlighted five articles searched from 2011-2021 throught Garba Garuda and Google Scholar. The obtained articles were apprassied using the JBI (Joanna Briggs Institute) instrument before being analyzed. This study revealed that the respiratory rate in patients with asthma increases over 20x/minutes.The conclusion from this literature review is that patients with asthma have tachypnea. This literature review may be used as a reference for hospitals, educational institutions, and other researchers to determine appropriate nursing interventions for asthma patients.Keywords:Asthma; respiratoryrate. AbstrakPenyakit asma dapat menyebabkan penyempitan pada saluran napas dan hal ini dapat menimbulkan gejala seperti mengi, batuk, dan sesak napas (dyspnea) pada penderitanya.

This study aims to describe how primiparous mothers perform self-care during the postpartum period. The method used is a literature review study by searching for several articles and journals through a search process from Pubmed, Proquest, Scopus Ebsco, and Google scholar. The results showed that many primiparous mothers needed self-care education to take care of themselves and their babies during the postpartum period. Self-care for each primiparous mother during childbirth is very different, one of which is due to the knowledge and age of the mother. Primiparous mothers are more likely to learn to understand themselves in terms of self-care during the puerperium than are multiparous who have had previous experiences. In conclusion, most primiparous mothers are still less able to do self-care because primiparous mothers have no experience caring for themselves and their babies, so they still tend to learn and try harder to adjust to their conditions.   Keywords: Independence, Postpartum, Primipara

Background: The implementation of the self-cleaning practice is of fundamental importance for the maintenance of oral health and to remove the human dental biofilm which is considered the main etiological factor for the development of caries and periodontal diseases.                      Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the use of chewing gum, Rolly Brush® and apples as forms of mechanical control and removal of the dental biofilm in the absence of brushing. Materials and Methods: Eighteen volunteers were submitted to plaque index evaluation after a period of 24 hours of no oral hygiene. Then, they would use one of the methods: chewing gum, Rolly Brush®, apple or tooth brushing, chosen by a draw, for one minute, and then, plaque index was evaluated again. This stage was repeated until all participants were submitted to all selected methods, in periods of 24 hours each.   Results: Dental brushing was more effective when compared to each of the other methods applied and there was a statistically significant reduction of dental plaque index after apllying all methods of cleaning in all groups. Conclusion: Chewing gum, Rolly Brush® and apple may be used as auxiliary to dental brushing or when such method is impossible to be performed. Clinicaltrials.gov: number of protocol NCT 03.601.585.
