Abstract

Background: Children with Down syndrome tend to have accompanying comorbidities, such as hypothyroidism, and late detection of this ailment leads to reduced growth of the child. This study aimed to assess the growth patterns in children with Down Syndrome and hypothyroidism at diagnosis.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted from September to December 2020 with 56 subjects at the Pediatric Endocrine Outpatient Clinic of Dr. Soetomo Hospital. Diagnosis of Down Syndrome was confirmed by karyotyping, while the weights and heights were assessed using a standardized curve for children with Down Syndrome and then calculated using Peditools. Fifty-six children with Down Syndrome and hypothyroidism were included, comprising 32 boys and 24 girls (mean age, 37.75 ± 34.26 months). Majority of the subjects had normal weight, height, and Body Mass Index (36/56 [mean z-score, −1.62 ± 2.36], 33/56 [mean height-z-score, −0.43 ± 2.74], and 30/56 [mean z-score, −2.00 ± 2.06], respectively). Furthermore, the mean onset of diagnosis was 17.07 ± 32.23 months, where 23 out of the 56 children had short stature and had gotten diagnosed at over 12 months of age.Conclusion: From the results obtained, hypothyroidism can be said to be associated with reduced growth in children with DS.

Abstract

Background  The  association between  Mycobacterium  tuberculosisinfection  and  atopy remains controversial. Reaction to tuberculosisinfection  is  mediated  by  Th-1  immune responses whereas allergicreactions are mediated  by  Th- 2 immune response. In patients withatopic syndrome who also suffer from tuberculosis infection,  theTh-2  response will be suppressed  and  allergy manifestations willdecrease. Therefore, it  is  important to determine the appropriateallergy test and to predict outcome after completing tuberculosistreatment.Objective  To  evaluate the influence  of  a positive tuberculin teston  skin test results in diagnosing atopic disease.Methods  A cross sectional study was  conducted  in  the  pediatricallergy  outpatient  clinic, Soetomo Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesiabetween 2004  and  2007. Eighty-five patients were enrolled inthis study.  The  tuberculin test was performed  on  all patientswith allergy.  The  allergy test was carried  out  by  performing a skinscratch test.Results  There  was a weak inverse correlation between positivetuberculin tests and positive allergy skin tests in children (housedust  mite, food  and  pet  allergies).  The  correlation between apositive  tuberculin  test  and  house  dust  mite allergy test wasr:  -0.364  (P=O.OOl;  a=O.Ol).  The  correlation  between  thetuberculin  test  and  food allergies was  r:  -0.420  (P=O.OOl;a=O.Ol).  The  correlation between the tuberculin test  and  petallergies was  r:  -0.344  (P=  0.001;  a=O.Ol).Conclusions  A positive tuberculin test  is  weakly correlated withpositive allergy skin test results, suggesting  that  it  is  appropriate  todo allergy skin testing even in children with a positive tuberculintest.

Abstract

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is an autosomal recessive disorder commonly caused by mutation of the CYP21A2 gene, resulting in deficiency of an enzyme required for cortisol synthesis in the adrenal cortex. In 90-95% of cases, the deficient enzyme is 21-hydroxylase (21-OH), with an incidence ranging from 1 in 5,000 to 15,000 live births across various ethnic and racial backgrounds. In classical 21-OH deficiency (21-OHD) CAH, excessive androgen exposure in the fetus results in virilization at birth.1 The management of ambiguous genitalia in children with CAH presents a unique and ethically challenging decision-making dilemma for the medical team. Insensitive and poorly informed statements made in the delivery room may cause long-term psychological problems for the families. It is important to refrain from assigning gender until sufficient diagnostic information can be gathered. Parents, as guardians, and the supporting medical team must make decisions on behalf of the child, with the goal of enabling the child to grow into a healthy and happy adult with his or her assigned gender.2,3 We report a case of a child with CAH, focusing on the ethical challenges in management of ambiguous genitalia.

Abstract

Introduction: Hyperglycemia is a well-known adverse effect of the corticosteroids and asparaginase given during induction chemotherapy for pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). ALL is a type of hematologic malignancy with high incidence in the childhood. The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of hyperglycemia during induction chemotherapy in childhood ALL. Methods: This prospective study was done in Dr. Soetomo hospital from January to April 2018. The subject was newly diagnosed as ALL under the age of 18 years, treated with Indonesian childhood ALL 2013 protocol (standard risk (SR) group and high risk (HR) group). Hyperglycemia was defined as at least two separate random plasma glucose levels >200 mg/dL, which was evaluated before and during induction chemotherapy. Statistical analysis using Paired T-test for parametric and Wilcoxon test for nonparametric. Results: Thirty-three children were enrolled, 18/33 boys with mean age 5.8 (SD 3.78) years, compromised as ALL-L1 30/33. They were treated with ALL-HR 19/33 and ALL-SR 14/33. In overall groups, the mean random blood glucose level significantly increased from 108 (SD 21.3) mg/dl to 147 (SD 48.1) mg/dl, (mean difference 38.67 mg/dl; 95% CI 18.08 to 59.26 mg/dl, p=0.008). In SR group, there was a significant increase of mean random blood glucose level from 102 (SD 13.5) mg/dl to 133 (SD 37.3) mg/dl, (mean difference 31.8 mg/dl; 95% CI 8.78 to 54.8 mg/dl; p=0.01). In HR group, the mean random blood glucose level increased from 113 (SD 51.9) mg/dl to 165 (SD 25.4) mg/dl, (mean difference 51.9 mg/dl; 95% CI 18.6 to 85.2 mg/dl, p=0.004). Conclusion: Blood glucose level is significantly increase during induction chemotherapy in both SR and HR Indonesian childhood ALL 2013 protocol.

Abstract

Currently, the development of acne drugs (antiacne) use  many natural materials because the natural materials can minimize the side effect if compared with synthetic chemicals drugs. Acne can caused by propionibacterium acnes, staphylococcus epidermis and staphylococcus aureu. One of plants that can be used for acne treatment is leaves of Avocado (Persea americana Mill). The aim of this study was to know whether the ethanol extract of leaves of avocado (Persea americana Mill.) can be made into an ointment preparations that fulfill the requirements. Sample in this research was extract of avocado leaves which used maceration method. The ointment formulations were made into some variation concentrations of PEG 400 and PEG 4000: Formula I (30%:70%); Formula II (50%:50%) and Formula III (70%:30%). The results show that the ointment of avocado leaves which fulfilled the requirements of physical properties is formula III with concentration of PEG 400 70 % and PEG 4000 30 %
