<p>One of the current health problems is hypertension, this involves an increase in blood pressure above normal. Blood pressure above 140/90 mmHg indicates that the systolic pressure when the heart pumps blood throughout the body is 140 mmHg and the diastolic pressure when the heart relaxes is 90 mmHg. This research uses a secondary data collection method for patients with hypertension seeking treatment at the Paradise Clinic in Surabaya in 2023, with a total sampling of 49 hypertensive patients. Data were analyzed using bivariate analysis tests, and then chi-square tests. The results of the research on age and hypertension obtained a P-value of 0.008, there was a relationship between the variables tested and based on gender and hypertension, the P-value of 0.075 was greater than 0.05, so there was no relationship. The research conclusion is that there is an influence of age risk factors on hypertension, and there are more men aged under 45 to 55 years than women and gender risk factors have no effect on the incidence of hypertension.</p> <p> </p>Elsa SalsabilaSri Lestari UtamiSukma Sahadewa

2024-06-302024-06-3021364110.30742/cmj.v2i1.30Analysis of Adverse Drug Reactions and Risk Factors in Multi-Drug Resistant Tuberculosis Patients: Literature Review
http://calvaria.fk.uwks.ac.id/index.php/calvaria/article/view/35
<p><strong>Introduction</strong>: Tuberculosis patients must adhere to a six-month uninterrupted course of medication. The DOTS method is crucial in preventing resistance to anti-TB drugs, which can lead to stronger MDR-TB strains resistant to rifampicin and isoniazid. ADRs from these drugs include gastrointestinal disturbances, hepatotoxicity, dermatological and serious neurological disorders, prompting patients to discontinue treatment. Non-adherence can hinder tuberculosis recovery as patients tend to stop treatment. Patient compliance is pivotal in their decision to continue treatment. Therefore, further research is needed to explore the relationship between ADRs to anti-TB drugs and risk factors in active MDR-TB patients. <strong>Method</strong>: This qualitative study conducted a literature review using databases from 2014 to 2023 and keywords relevant to the study's title. Fifteen relevant journals were identified, comprising 11 international and 4 national journals. <strong>Results</strong>: The literature review found that the most influential factors in adverse drug reactions to OAT in outpatient MDR-TB patients were treatment history and medication adherence. Regarding individual factors such as age and gender, most journals indicated they are not significant risk factors for MDR-TB. <strong>Conclusion</strong>: Based on the literature review, it can be concluded that the most dominant factors affecting adverse drug reactions to OAT in outpatient MDR-TB patients are treatment history and medication adherence. As for individual factors like age and gender, nearly all journals indicate they are not significant risk factors for MDR-TB.<br /><br /></p>Agshal Almachzumi AndiliBudhi SetiawanFuad AmaBudiono Raharjo
