Abstract

Penyakit Tidak Menular (PTM) merupakan penyebab kematian terbesar di dunia yang memberikan beban sosial ekonomi yang berat. PTM merupakan penyakit yang dapat dicegah dengan mengendalikan faktor risiko sejak dini. Generasi muda dapat berkontribusi dalam pencegahan PTM dengan cara membagikan pesan-pesan bermanfaat tersebut ke lingkungan keluarga, sekolah, maupun masyarakat. Kegiatan ini merupakan kegiatan persembahan alumni untuk memberikan pelatihan pencegahan PTM yang dilakukan secara daring. Kegiatan ini diikuti oleh anggota PMR SMA Negeri 1 Surakarta. Organisasi ini merupakan organisasi yang cukup aktif, tetapi selama ini belum pernah mengangkat tema PTM dalam kegiatannya. Pengetahuan anggotanya tentang PTM masih kurang. SMA Negeri 1 Surakarta merupakan salah satu sekolah favorit di Surakarta dan menjadi percontohan dan tolak ukur prestasi bagi sekolah lainnya. Kegiatan ini dibagi 2 sesi yaitu pencegahan dan penatalaksanaan awal PTM dan adaptasi kebiasaan baru pada era tatanan baru. Pelatihan ini diikuti oleh 34 orang anggota PMR SMA Negeri 1 Surakarta. Didapatkan kenaikan signifikan rerata nilai postest (nilai rerata 10) dibandingkan pretest (nilai rerata 6,24+2,26; (p 0,001). 68% peserta sangat setuju pelatihan ini menarik, 56% peserta sangat setuju bahwa materi pelatihan ini mudah dipahami, dan 84% peserta sangat setuju materi pelatihan ini relevan dengan kondisi saat ini. Pelatihan ini menambah pengetahuan tentang pencegahan PTM pada anggota PMR. Adanya pandemi COVID-19 menyebabkan adanya kebiasaan baru. Apabila tidak dikelola dengan baik, kondisi ini dapat menyebabkan timbulnya faktor risiko PTM atau memperburuk faktor risiko yang ada. Kami menyarankan dilakukannya skrining dini faktor risiko PTM pada semua siswa.

Abstract

Background: Indonesia has reported more than 4 million confirmed COVID-19 cases as of November 2021. This has led to an increase in the use of personal protective equipment (PPE), for example, surgical masks in hospitals, especially referral hospitals for COVID-19 patients. The Potential Hydrogen (pH) or level of acidity plays an important role in the body's physiological functions and regulates the formation of an epidermal barrier (stratum corneum). Thus, the use of surgical masks is able to influence the pH of human skin. This study aimed to determine the difference in facial skin acidity (pH) levels of nurses at Sebelas Maret University Hospital before and after surgical mask use. Methods: The study utilized a cross-sectional observational method and was conducted at the Sebelas Maret University Hospital, Surakarta. A total of 55 subjects were involved in this study, and each subject’s facial skin Potential Hydrogen (pH) was measured before and after surgical mask use. Subsequently, all data were analyzed with a T-test using SPSS 21.00, and a p-value <0.05 indicated statistical significance. Results: The results showed facial skin pH increased after surgical mask use for nurses at the Sebelas Maret University Hospital (p = 0.000). Conclusion: An increase in the physiological value of skin pH was observed in the nurses of Sebelas Maret University Hospital after surgical mask use.

Abstract

Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCLs) are clinically heterogeneous T-cell lymphomas that arise in the skin and are characterized by their clinical and pathological features. The pathogenesis of CTCL is not fully understood. The incidence of CTCL increases significantly with age, with a median age at diagnosis at about 55 years of age and a four-fold increase in incidence appreciated in patients over 70. A 53 year old woman presented with complaints of reddish spots and lumps on her left forearm and back which spread to her chest, stomach and legs. On examination, a lump the size of a golf ball was found on the left forearm and back as well as reddish spots that felt itchy and painful. Histopathological examination with HE staining showed proliferation of lymphoid follicles without a germinal center and monotonous cells of small to medium size partially surrounding the tubular glands in the dermis layer. Immunohistochemical examination revealed positive for CD 45 as well as CD 3 and negative for CD 20. A case of CTCL has been reported in a 53-year-old woman. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemistry are important to diagnose this disease.

Abstract

Background: Acne vulgaris (AV) is a common inflammatory skin disorder among young adults. The use of over-the-counter (OTC) facial soap is a common practice for managing AV, but the impact of its frequency on acne severity remains unclear. Purpose: This study aims to determine the relationship between the frequency of OTC facial soap usage and the severity of acne vulgaris among medical students at Sebelas Maret University. Methods: This observational analytical study utilized a cross-sectional approach and involved 57 medical students at Sebelas Maret University. The questionnaire focused on the frequency of OTC face wash usage among participants. Data were analyzed using Chi-square tests and Spearman-Pearson correlation methods. Result: There is a significant relationship (p = 0.089) between the frequency of OTC face wash usage and the risk of acne vulgaris, with a weak negative correlation (r = -0.226, p = 0.092). This study set a significance level of 0.1, higher than the conventional 0.05, which limits the generalizability of the results. This decision was made to balance the accuracy of the findings with the available resource constraints. Conclusion: There’s a significant correlation between OTC facial soap usage and acne risk in Sebelas Maret University medical students, with more frequent use linked to reduced acne severity.

Abstract

Background: The elderly population has been growing rapidly in recent decades. Research has shown that the prevalence of itching (pruritus) increases with age, with 20.8% of individuals aged 60-69 years experiencing it, 22.9% for those aged 70-79 years, and 26% for those aged 75 years and above. Assessing the skin's barrier function by measuring transepidermal water loss (TEWL) using a tool called a Tewameter is important for objectively evaluating dry skin, which is the most common cause of itching in the elderly. It's important to understand how itching affects the quality of life of the elderly, particularly in nursing homes. Objective: This study aims to determine how itching affects the quality of life of the elderly in nursing homes in Surakarta City, especially at PMI Peduli and Aisyiyah Nursing Homes. Methods: This research used an observational, cross-sectional design. Data was collected through interviews using the 5D itch scale questionnaire, and the quality of life was measured using the DLQI (Dermatology Life Quality Index) questionnaire. TEWL levels were also measured using a Tewameter. Results: 29 subjects participated in the interviews, with 69% being women and 31% being men. Most subjects were aged 60-69 years (41%), and the most common comorbidity was hypertension (41%). The 5D Itch Scale questionnaire revealed that itching affected the subjects for less than 6 hours daily (66%), and during the last 2 weeks, itching did not significantly impact the subjects' activities, including sleep, hobbies, housework, and work (51%-69%). The most common location of itching was the back (14%). The DLQI data showed that itching had a severe impact on the subjects (65.5%), followed by a moderate impact (24.1%), and a very severe impact (10.3%). TEWL data indicated that all subjects had an increase of >10 g/h/m2. Conclusion: The study found that itching had a mild impact on the lives and activities of the subjects in general, lasting for less than 6 hours a day. The statistical results showed a positive and significant relationship between the intensity of itching and the quality of life of the elderly with pruritus.

Abstract

Background: The elderly population has been rapidly increasing over the past few decades. In Indonesia, the percentage of elderly residents is 8.75% of the total population. Aging is an unavoidable process, but it requires care to ensure a good quality of life for the elderly. One of the issues affecting the quality of life in the elderly is skin aging. Skin aging causes various complaints, especially itching or pruritus, which can reduce the quality of life for the elderly. Knowledge of the pathophysiology of skin diseases and skin aging, as well as the factors that affect them, particularly skin hydration, is necessary. This research is expected to be beneficial for medical professionals as well as family members of the elderly. The elderly residents at Wreda Griya PMI Peduli and Aisyiyah Nursing Home come from various regions and economic backgrounds. Therefore, the researchers consider the nursing home to be an appropriate place to conduct this study, as it can represent the elderly population from diverse backgrounds across Indonesia.Objective: This study aims to analyze the various skin disease profiles at the Griya PMI Peduli and Aisyiyah nursing homes in the city of Surakarta. Methods: This type of research is a survey using an observational study method with a descriptive design. Results: There were a total of 45 subjects at the Wreda PMI Peduli and Aisyiyah Nursing Home in Surakarta. Among them, 34 subjects had skin complaints, while 11 subjects were excluded because they did not have any skin complaints (7 subjects) or were uncooperative (4 subjects). The most common diagnosis was xerosis cutis (53%). The majority of patients did not have comorbidities (65%), with the most common comorbidity being hypertension (26%). Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that all the main skin complaints among the elderly at Panti Wreda in Kota Surakarta were dominated by itching or pruritus, with xerosis cutis being the primary etiology of pruritus in the elderly subjects of the study, accounting for 53%.
