Based on data from the Global Tuberculosis Report in 2022, Indonesia ranks as the second highest TB case after India. This study aims to evaluate the suitability of OAT use in pulmonary tuberculosis patients at the Sidomulyo pekanbaru Health Center from January-December 2022 based on the 2014 Tuberculosis Prevention guidelines by the Ministry of health of the Republic of Indonesia, as well as the relationship between age, duration of treatment,gender, and chronic comorbidities to patient treatment outcomes,and analysis of the level of adherence of pulmonary TB patients. This study is a non-experimental descriptive research with retrospective data retrieval. The results showed that the type of OAT given is OAT type KDT (fixed dose combination) of 99% with a cure rate of 80%. Suitability of indications, dosage and selection of OAT combination has been in accordance with the standards of the National TB guidelines in 2014. Analysis of the relationship between several factors on the results of treatment of patients obtained from the statistical analysis of chi-square test concluded that the age factor (p=0.00001;p&lt;0.05) has a significant relationship while gender (p=0.064;p&gt;0.05), duration of treatment (p=0.860;p&gt;0.05) and chronic comorbidities (p=0.826;p&gt;0.05) had no significant relationship to the patient's treatment outcomes. The level of patient compliance obtained from the results of filling out questionnaires for pulmonary TB patients at the Sidomulyo Health Center has a high compliance of 49%.</p> Denia Pratiwi Maisarah Maisarah Deri Islami ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 2024-01-03 2024-01-03 1 4 38 44 Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Turmeric Infused and Antifungal Activity Against Malassezia furfur ATCC 14521 http://jurnal.univrab.ac.id/index.php/jika/article/view/4217 <p><em>Malassezia furfur</em> is a lipophilic fungus and part of the normal flora of the skin. Under certain conditions, Malassezia furfur can cause Pityriasis versicolor (Tinea versicolor). Pityriasis versicolor can generally be treated with azole antifungals. However, recently it has been widely known that <em>Malassezia furfur </em>has experienced resistance. Therefore, a nanoparticle approach was sought. This research aims to synthesize and characterize turmeric infused silver nanoparticles, as well as test the antifungal activity of silver nanoparticles against <em>Malassezia furfur</em>. This research method begins with preparation of turmeric infusion, synthesis of silver nanoparticles using turmeric infusion and characterization using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer, and testing the antifungal activity of silver nanoparticles with ratios of 1:2, 1:4, and 1:6 at a stirring time of 3 hours, 6 hours, and 24 hours using the well method. The results showed that the color of the solution changed from yellow to yellowish brown. Characterization of silver nanoparticles using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer obtained the highest absorbance value at a ratio of 1:6 with a stirring time of 24 hours with a wavelength of 393nm. The antifungal activity test showed that the highest inhibition zone was at a ratio of 1:6 with a stirring time of 6 hours with an average diameter of the inhibition zone of 8.17mm and the lowest was at a ratio of 1:6 with a stirring time of 24 hours with an average diameter of the inhibition zone of 2.78mm. Turmeric infusion can be used as a bioreduction in the synthesis of silver nanoparticles.</p> Eliya Mursyida Olvaria Misfa Santi Widiasari Bellanera Alifia Safitri Sabrina Hayati ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 2024-01-03 2024-01-03 1 4 45 52 Verbal Violance: The Phenomenon Among School Age http://jurnal.univrab.ac.id/index.php/jika/article/view/4228 <p style="font-weight: 400;"><strong><em>Background</em></strong><em>: A time when children are often selfish, show stubbornness, do not want to follow the rules&nbsp; set by parents&nbsp; , rebel which&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; is the case It is&nbsp; done by&nbsp;&nbsp; children to gain freedom and satisfy their curiosity, this period&nbsp; is called the&nbsp;&nbsp; period of school-age&nbsp; children.
