Introduction:Dental caries is a disease of hard dental tissue, namely enamel, dentin, and cementume caused by a microorganism in a carbohydrate that can be shared. Stimulus secretion of saliva consists of mechanical stimulation including talking, chewing, and gargling, while chemical stimulation in the form of the impression of taste. Chocolate biscuits and jelly candies are sweet, sticky, and chewy cariogenic foods that greatly affect changes in salivary pH. Children aged 9-10 years are more susceptible to dental disease because it is a critical age group, at that age there is a transition of tooth growth from baby teeth to permanen teeth. Purpose:This study aims to determine the differences in salivary pH between consuming chocolate biscuits and jelly candies in students aged 9-10 years. Materials and Methods: The research design used was a pre-experimental study with a pretest and posttest control group design. The number of subjects required was 32 respondents, by taking a Simple Random Sampling, which was divided into 2 groups, each group consisting of 16 people. Data analysis used the Wilcoxon test and One Way ANOVA. Result and Discussion: The result showed that, the mean value of saliva pH before chewing chocolate biscuits was 8.09, in minute to five was 3.96, in minute to ten was 6.50, then in minute to fifteen was 7.33. While the mean salivary pH before chewing jelly candy was 7.66, in minute to five was 5.17, in in minute to ten was 6.81, and in minute to fifteen was 7.50. Conclusion: The conclusion of this study was that chewing chocolate biscuits was more influential in lowering salivary pH than chewing jelly candies after 5 (five) minutes of mastication and there was no difference in mean increase in salivary pH between groups after 10-15 (ten-fifteen) minutes of chewing chocolate biscuits and jelly candies.

Background: The incidence of burns in Indonesia progressively increases with the increase in its population and industries. From January to September 2000, 158 patients were treated in the burn unit of Dr Soetomo Hospital with a mortality rate reaching 5,8%. Burns have a direct effect in causing both local and systemic changes in the body, not occurring in other injuries. In severe burns, a hypermetabolic state can occur, which increases cardiac workload and causes muscle atrophy and other morbidities. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of propranolol on the hypermetabolic state in severely burned patients by measuring various clinical & laboratory parameters.Methods : This is an experimental study using pre and post test control group design with the objective of assessing the treatment outcome with oral propranolol given in 15 consecutive days for burn patients involving 25%- 60% TBSA. Measurements were taken three times, on day 0, 7 and 14.Results : Obtained 16 samples divided into 2 groups. In the treatment group, there was a significant decrease in CRP levels on days 0, 7 and 14 (p <0.05). The Mid Arm Circumference variable did not obtain a significant decreasing on days 0, 7 and 14. The albumin level studied showed a significant decreasing on day 0 & 7 days with a value of p = 0.045. From the comparison between the two groups, there were significant differences in CRP levels on days 0 & 14, with the mean value of the treatment group -5.12 + 2.88 and the mean value of the control group 2.86 + 7.37, and the value of p = 0.019.Conclusions: This study successfully proved that the administration of propranolol can overcome the effects of hypermetabolism which is characterized by decreasing in CRP levels.
