Introduction: According to medical check up results of the hand-rolled cigarette factory PT. X in 2018, a hemorrhoid prevalence of 33% was found. Several studies have tried to show an association between individual factors such as age, family history, constipation, obesity, pregnancy, fiber consumption, and defecation position in research subjects in clinics and hospitals. Nevertheless, the effects of sitting work position and sitting time on the risk of hemorrhoid is yet to be revealed. This study aims to prove the effect of these factors on the increased risk of hemorrhoids. Methods: An observational study with a 1:1 unmatched case control design with 300 female workers as subjects. The risk factors related with hemorrhoids were obtained from primary and secondary data. Cases were workers diagnosed with hemorrhoids and controls were workers who were not diagnosed with hemorrhoids during a medical check-up 2018. Data analysis was performed using univariate and bivariate analysis. Results: The mean ages of the subjects were 42.49±3.05 years old (cases) and 42.83±3.02 years old (controls), with most education level was a junior high school in both groups. Bivariate analysis pointed out that sitting work position and sitting time did not have a significant relationship with the incidence of hemorrhoids. Meanwhile, consumption of less fruit (OR=3.84;95%CI 1.87-7.91) and less vegetable (OR=2.41;95%CI 1.36-4.28) increased the risk of hemorrhoid compared to sufficient vegetables and fruit consumption. Conclusion: Sitting work position and sitting time were not associated with an increased risk of hemorrhoids. Meanwhile, consumption of less vegetable and fruit increased the risk of hemorrhoids.

AbstractBackground:This study aimed to investigate the relationship between daily sitting time and the risk of metabolic syndrome in Korean adolescents.Methods:Data from 486 adolescents aged 12–18 years were obtained from national surveys. Daily sitting time was measured using questionnaires and divided into three intervals: <8 h; 8–12 h; and ≥12 h.Results:The mean daily sitting time and prevalence of positive metabolic components were 620.9±9.9 min/day and 45.5±2.7%, respectively. In a multivariate logistic regression analysis, adolescents who sat longer were more likely to have metabolic components (p<0.05), independent of age, sex, area of residence, sleeping time and body mass index.Conclusions:Longer daily sitting time appears to be associated with an increased risk of metabolic syndrome in adolescents. These findings highlight the need to focus on reducing sitting time for all adolescents, not just for those at risk of obesity.

Abstract: To date, obesity incidence is increasing globally in developing and developed countries. Increased prevalence of obesity suggests that there is an increased risk of obesity-related illnesses. Metabolic and lipid transport disorders can lead to hypercholesterolemia. This can happen especially among people with less physical activity, such as teacher. This study was aimed to assess the comparison of cholesterol levels in obese and non-obese teachers. This was an analytical descriptive study with a cross-sectional design. Respondents were 35 teachers at SMP Negeri I and II (junior high school) Kauditan Kabupaten Minahasa Utara consisting of 26 females and 9 males. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated and fasting cholesterol levels were checked from peripheral blood using autocheck tool. The results showed that there were 16 (45.7%) non-obese respondents and 19 (54.3%) obese respondents. Of the 35 respondents, 24 (68.6%) had normal cholesterol levels and 11 (31.4%) had hypercholesterolemia. The bivariate analysis using Mann Whitney test revealed that there was no significant difference in cholesterol levels between obese and non-obese teachers (P = 0.537). Conclusion: There was no significant difference in cholesterol levels between obese and non-obese teachers at SMP Negeri I and II Kauditan Kabupaten Minahasa Utara.Keywords: cholesterol level, BMl, teachers Abstrak: Insiden obesitas dilaporkan tetap mengalami peningkatan secara global, baik di negara berkembang maupun negara maju.

Abstract Objectives: to analyze the lethality and clinical characteristics in Pernambuco women with neoplasia that were infected by SARS-CoV-2. Methods: a cross-sectional, retrospective study with female patients with neoplasm sin the state of Pernambuco registered and made available by the Secretariat of Planning and Management of the State of Pernambuco (SEPLAG PE). Secondary data from public domain notifications and the independent factors associated with death were analyzed through logistic regression. The value ofp<0.25 was considered significant in the bivariate analysis and for a multivariate analysis, the value ofp<0.05 was considered significant. Results: forty-nine women died. The mean age and standard deviation were 58.75 ± 20.93 years. 55.86% of the patients were 60 years old or more. The overall lethality rate was 72.06% (CI95%=59.8 - 82.2). The most prevalent symptoms were fever (70.59%), cough (58.82%), dyspnea (57.35%) and O2 saturation less than 95% (48.53%). Conclusions: female patients, with cancer and infected by SARS-CoV-2 are particularly susceptible to death, regardless of the presence of comorbidities or age, with peripheral O2 saturation <95% being the only independent factor associated with death in this group.

Abstract. Background: The invasive management of varicose veins has a known risk of post-operative deep venous thrombosis and subsequent pulmonary embolism. The aim of this study was to evaluate absolute and relative risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) following commonly used varicose vein procedures. Patients and methods: A retrospective analysis of secondary data using Hospital Episode Statistics database was performed for all varicose vein procedures performed between 2003 and 2013 and all readmissions for VTE in the same patients within 30 days, 90 days, and one year. Comparison of the incidence of VTEs between procedures was performed using a Pearson’s Chi-squared test. Results: In total, 261,169 varicose vein procedures were performed during the period studied. There were 686 VTEs recorded at 30 days (0.26 % incidence), 884 at 90 days (0.34 % incidence), and 1,246 at one year (0.48 % incidence). The VTE incidence for different procedures was between 0.15–0.35 % at 30 days, 0.26–0.50 % at 90 days, and 0.46–0.58 % at one year. At 30 days there was a significantly lower incidence of VTEs for foam sclerotherapy compared to other procedures (p = 0.01). There was no difference in VTE incidence between procedures at 90 days (p = 0.13) or one year (p = 0.16). Conclusions: Patients undergoing varicose vein procedures have a small but appreciable increased risk of VTE compared to the general population, with the effect persisting at one year. Foam sclerotherapy had a lower incidence of VTE compared to other procedures at 30 days, but this effect did not persist at 90 days or at one year. There was no other significant difference in the incidence of VTE between open, endovenous, and foam sclerotherapy treatments.

Objective Patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) have increased risk of pressure injury (PI) development due to critical illness. This study compared two silicone dressings used in the Australian ICU setting for sacral PI prevention. Design A cluster-controlled clinical trial of two sacral dressings with four alternating periods of three months' duration. Setting A 10-bed general adult ICU in outer-metropolitan Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Participants Adult participants who did not have a sacral PI present on ICU admission and were able to have a dressing applied for more than 24 hours without repeated dislodgement or soiling in a 24-hour period (>3 times). Interventions Dressing 1 (Allevyn Gentle Border Sacrum™, Smith & Nephew) and Dressing 2 (Mepilex Border Sacrum™, Mölnlycke). Main outcomes measures The primary outcome was the incidence of a new sacral PI (stage 1 or greater) per 100 dressing days in the ICU. Secondary outcomes were the mean number of dressings per patient, the cost difference of dressings to prevent a sacral PI and product integrity. Results There was no difference in the incidence of a new sacral PI (0.44 per 100 dressing days for both products, p = 1.00), the mean number of dressings per patient per day (0.50 for both products, p = 0.51) and product integrity (85% for Dressing 1 and 84% for Dressing 2, p = 0.69). There was a dressing cost difference per patient (A$10.29 for Dressing 1 and A$28.84 for Dressing 2, p < 0.001). Conclusions Similar efficacy, product use and product integrity, but differential cost, were observed for two prophylactic silicone dressings in the prevention of PIs in the intensive care patient. We recommend the use of sacral prophylactic dressings for at-risk patients, with the choice of product based on ease of application, clinician preference and overall cost-effectiveness of the dressing.

ABSTRACT:Anti-dumping on tinplate products aim to protect domestic industries. Still, some industries want tinplate products not to be subject to anti-dumping because domestic production is not sufficient. This research examines the application of anti-dumping import duties on tinplate products from China, Taiwan, and Korea from 2014 to 2018, to know whether there are differences in the value of imports before and during the anti-dumping import duty. Use secondary data sourced from UN-Comtrade. Samples are selected by countries that have continuously sent tinplate products to Indonesia from 2010 to 2018, namely China, Taiwan, Korea, Japan, Germany, India, and Malaysia. Using the Mean Equality Test, it is known that there are differences in the import value before and during the anti-dumping import duty, with a p-value of 0.0114 less than α (0.05), so it is concluded that there is a difference in the import value of the tinplate product before and during anti-dumping duty. Descriptive analysis results illustrate imports from China and Taiwan tend to decrease. In contrast, imports from Korea tend to increase despite being subjected to anti-dumping duties because they can compete by using preferential tariffs based on free trade schemes.Keywords: Antidumping, Import duty, TinplateABSTRAK:Anti-dumping terhadap produk tinplate bertujuan melindungi industri dalam negeri, akan tetapi terdapat ìndustri yang menginginkan produk tinplate tidak dikenakan anti-dumping karena produksi dalam negeri belum mencukupi. Penelitian ini menguji penerapan bea masuk anti-dumping terhadap produk tinplate dari China, Taiwan dan Korea selama tahun 2014 s.d. 2018, dengan tujuan mengetahui apakah ada perbedaan nilai importasi sebelum dan selama dikenakan bea masuk anti-dumping. Menggunakan data sekunder yang bersumber dari UNComtrade. Sampel dipilih negara yang secara kontinyu mengirim produk tinplate ke Indonesia sejak 2010 s.d. 2018, yaitu China, Taiwan, Korea, Jepang, Jerman, India dan Malaysia. Menggunakan Mean Equality Test, diketahui terdapat perbedaan nilai importasi sebelum dengan selama dikenakan bea masuk anti-dumping. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai-P (p-value) adalah 0,0114 lebih kecil dari alpha (α=0,05), sehingga disimpulkan terdapat perbedaan pada nilai importasi produk tinplate sebelum dengan selama dikenakan bea masuk anti-dumping. Hasil analisis deskriptif menggambarkan importasi dari China dan Taiwan cenderung menurun sedangkan importasi dari Korea cenderung naik walaupun dikenakan bea masuk anti-dumping karena mampu bersaing dengan menggunakan tarif preferensi berdasarkan skema perdagangan bebas.Kata Kunci: Anti-dumping, Bea Masuk, tinplate

Background: Inguinal hernia is one of the most common conditions presented for surgical repair in children and laparoscopic approaches are increasingly performed. Previous studies have shown safety and efficacy in the use of supraglottic devices (SGD) as an alternative to tracheal intubation, which fits particularly well with outpatient anesthesia. Methodology: we conduct a retrospective observational study, collecting data from the electronic anesthetic form, from all patients aged 0 to 17 y who underwent ambulatory laparoscopic percutaneous internal ring suturing between February 2015 and August 2019, if I-gelTM was used to airway management. Results: We found 230 patients meeting the inclusion criteria. The mean age was 5.2 y old, mean weight 20.1 kg. All patients were ASA I (n=203) or ASA II (n=27). The mean surgery duration was 38 minutes. We found 4 respiratory adverse events, three bronchospasms, and one laryngospasm, managed in the operating room. Ninety percent of the surgeries were performed without neuromuscular blockade. Conclusion: I-gelTM was a safe, effective, and convenient alternative to airway management to laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair in the ambulatory setting. According to available literature, our practice did not represent an increased risk for the studied respiratory events. SGD obviates the need for neuromuscular blockade.
