Abstract

Introduction: Distal Symmetric Polyneuropathy (DSPN) is the most common neuropathy subtype found in Diabetes Mellitus (DM) patients. Early screening is important to prevent complications. Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI) was created in 1994 as an alternative screening tool for diabetic neuropathy. This instrument has not been validated in Indonesia. Aim: Assess validity and reliability of Indonesian version of MNSI in detecting diabetic DSPN. Methods: This cross-sectional study was done in Wahidin Sudirohusodo hospital, Makassar in December 2021-June 2022. Indonesian version of MNSI and Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS) was applied to subjects. Statistics were performed with Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25. Study protocol was approved by Health Research Ethics Committee, Faculty of Medicine, Hasanuddin University. Results: 102 subjects were eligible and divided into DM with DSPN (n=60) and DM without DSPN (n=42). Significant differences were found in age, body mass index, duration of DM diagnosis, treatment, HbA1c, Indonesian version of MNSI part B, and all NCS parameters (p<0,05). Area Under Curve (AUC) of part B was bigger than A (0,942 vs 0,606). Cut-off >=2,5 of part B had sensitivity, specificity, Positive Predictive Value (PPV), and Negative Predictive Value (NPV) of 95,0%, 90,5%, 93,4%, and 92,7%, respectively. Discussion: Cut-off >=2,5 for Indonesian version of MNSI part B was considered optimal. EMNG was recommended for DM patients with part B score >=2,5. Conclusion: Indonesian version of MNSI is a valid and reliable instrument to detect DSPN in Indonesian population. Keywords: diabetic neuropathy, DSPN, Indonesia, MNSI

Abstract

Introduction: Carotid cavernous fistula (CCF) is a rare abnormal connection between the carotid artery and the cavernous sinus. Based on its etiology, CCF is divided into traumatic and spontaneous types. CCF presents with varied clinical findings and neuroimaging features. Diagnosis is established based on clinical findings and neuroimaging characteristics. Objective: This study aims to provide a descriptive overview of clinical profile and neuroimaging of CCF patients at Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital, Makassar. Method: This descriptive study retrospectively collected data from medical records of Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital, Makassar, from January 2023 to March 2024, using total sampling method. Results: A total of 25 subjects meeting the criteria were obtained. The mean age was 33.08±15.37 years, predominantly male (76%). The duration of symptoms was mostly >1 month (88%). Trauma was the most common etiology (76%). Unilateral lateralization was most frequent (84%). The most common symptoms and signs were proptosis (80%), conjunctival injection (60%), and headache (52%). Cranial nerve VI involvement was most frequent (52%). All subjects had direct CCF anatomical characteristics. Imaging features included dilated superior ophthalmic vein (92%), proptosis (76%), and cavernous sinus enlargement (36%). Discussion: Traumatic etiology was more common than spontaneous in CCF, consistent with other studies finding traumatic etiology most prevalent in direct CCF patients. Symptoms and signs such as proptosis, conjunctival injection, headache, and imaging features like dilated superior ophthalmic vein, proptosis, and cavernous sinus enlargement on CT scan or MRI suggest CCF.

Abstract

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of neuromuscular taping decompression technique (NMT) on modifying pain scale in diabetic patients with painful distal symmetrical polyneuropathy (DSPN) at Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital, Makassar, Indonesia. Using a pure experimental design with a pre-test and post-test control group method, 30 patients were included: 15 in the treatment group and 15 in the control group. The treatment group received decompression NMT on the dorsal and plantar aspects of the foot twice a week for four weeks, along with vitamin B complex supplementation. The control group received only vitamin B complex. Result: The Mann-Whitney test showed significant improvement (p <0.05) in the pain scale of the treatment group on day 28, with the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) score being lower than that of the control group. Conclusion: This study demonstrated the significant pain-reducing effect of NMT in DSPN patients. The combination of vitamin B1, B6, and B12 supplementation with 8 NMT sessions over 28 days reduced pain to 0 on the NPRS scale. Treatment twice a week for 4 weeks, alongside vitamin B, led to near-zero pain, with pain-free results expected after 5 treatments over 17 days. NMT combined with vitamin B reduced pain approximately 2 times faster than vitamin B alone.
