Abstract

Background: Developmental anomalies in congenital anomalies cause malformation, such as Anterior Segment Dysgenesis (ASD). Disorder in maturation of anterior segment of the eye occurs in ASD, associated with increased risk of glaucoma. This relation is not supported with enough data about characteristics pediatric patients with ASD in Indonesia. The aim of the study was to describe characteristics ASD in pediatric patient Cicendo Eye Hospital based on patients’ identity, clinical profile and obstetrics profile.Methods: This study used a descriptive method and conducted retrospectively. Data were collected from medical records of patient with ASD in Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus Unit at Cicendo Eye Hospital, from January 2012 to December 2014. This study was conducted from July to November 2015. Total sampling based on inclusion criteria were used in this study. Statistic software was used to analyze data. Results: This study used a descriptive method and conducted retrospectively. Data were collected from medical records of patient with ASD in Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus Unit at Cicendo Eye Hospital, from January 2012 to December 2014. This study was conducted from July to November 2015. Total sampling based on inclusion criteria were used in this study. Statistic software was used to analyze data. Conclusions: Characteristics pediatric patients with ASD at Cicendo Eye Hospital based on patients identity are mostly patients diagnosed in infant age group, from outside Bandung, and mostly boys. Based on clinical profile most diagnosis is congenital glaucoma, bilateral dominantly, and without complication. Based on obstetric profile most patients with ASD were born at term without difficulties. [AMJ.2016;3(4):616–70] DOI: 10.15850/amj.v3n4.948

Abstract

Background: Alpha-tocopheryl acetate (Vitamin E) and metformin hydrochloride have been tested as anti-aging compounds at various concentrations. This study aimed to identify the most effective concentrations of alpha-tocopheryl acetate and metformin hydrochloride in promoting the viability of human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs), a primary cell type in skin aging research.Methods: HDFs were isolated using a mechanical isolation method and cultured under standard conditions. Cells were treated with varying concentrations of alpha-tocopheryl acetate and metformin hydrochloride as independents agents. After 48 hours of incubation, cell viability was measured using the MTT assay.Results: Alpha-tocopheryl acetate had the highest HDF cell viability (107%) at a concentration of 50 μM. Metformin hydrochloride had the maximum HDF cell viability (158%) at 5 μM. However, the viability response varied across different concentrations for both agents, indicating that optimal dosing was essential for maximizing their effectiveness.Conclusions: Alpha-tocopheryl acetate at 50 μM and metformin hydrochloride at 50 μM yield the highest viability of HDFs in vitro. These findings suggest potential roles for both agents in anti-aging skin therapies. Further research is recommended to explore their mechanisms of action and to optimize dosing strategies for clinical applications.
