Abstract

Hypogonadism is a clinical syndrome condition caused by disturbances in secretion at the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal level. In fact, regarding the results of examinations and decisions about hypogonadism treatment are still difficult to make. So, analysis of the diagnosis and management of hypogonadism in men and women needs to be studied. This research analyzes studies using the Google Scholar, Pubmed and Proquest databases. After searching, 995 articles were found. There were 14 articles containing the diagnosis and management of hypogonadism. Based on the search results, examining hormone levels is the gold standard for diagnosing hypogonadism in men and women. Treatment for primary and secondary hypogonadism for men and women can include sex steroid replacement, gonadotropin or GnRH replacement if the patient wants to increase fertility, surgical therapy and radiation therapy.

Abstract

Thyroid carcinoma is a type of cancer that originates from the cells of the thyroid gland, and its incidence has been steadily increasing in the last decade. It is the 7th most common type of malignancy among women, after ovarian carcinoma, with nearly 80% of diagnosed cases being the papillary type. Triggering factors that contribute to the development of thyroid carcinoma include genetic influences, iodine deficiency, history of overexposure to radiation, and history of goiter. Various clinical guidelines have been developed for the diagnosis, therapy and follow-up of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC). This article aims to analyze the risk factors, clinical characteristics, and different treatment approaches for thyroid carcinoma, as well as explore new factors contributing to the increasing incidence of this disease. By doing so, the reader is expected to gain a deeper understanding of thyroid carcinoma. This article discusses important aspects such as epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and prevention related to thyroid carcinoma, so that the selection of management can be made more appropriately, and help reduce the rate of increase in the incidence of this disease.

Abstract

Soil-transmitted helminths (STH) remain highly prevalent in Indonesia and continue to pose a major public health concern, particularly in areas with limited diagnostic capacity. Reliable and cost-effective detection methods are crucial for accurate surveillance and the success of national deworming programs. This study aims to compare three commonly used microscopic techniques (wet mount, Kato-Katz, and sedimentation) to evaluate their diagnostic performance and suitability for use in resource-limited settings through a literature review. Wet mount is rapid and inexpensive but limited by low sensitivity in light infections. The Kato-Katz method, endorsed by the World Health Organization as the gold standard, offers higher sensitivity and enables egg quantification, though its performance decreases when only a single sample is examined. Sedimentation is useful for detecting heavier trematode eggs and is relatively simple to perform, but sensitivity remains a challenge. Overall, while all three techniques are feasible in resource-limited settings, their effectiveness depends on infection intensity, sample handling, and examiner skill. Training and quality control are therefore essential to improve diagnostic accuracy and support ongoing STH control programs in Indonesia.
