Abstract

Bakground. Beta major thalassemia is the most common inherited blood disorder worldwide. It can lead to various neurological complications such as peripheral neuropathy. Toronto Clinical Neuropathy Score (TCNS) is helpful for peripheral neuropathy screening especially in diabetes mellitus. Objective. To investigate the prevalence of peripheral neuropathy in beta major thalassemia patient using Toronto Clinical Neuropathy Score (TCNS). Method. A descriptive study on beta major thalassemia patients aged more than 14 years who regularly underwent blood transfusions in Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung, from July to August 2017. Normal TCNS values was < 4, mild neuropathy 5-7, moderate neuropathy 8-10 and severe neuropathy > 10. Results. Sixty subjects met the inclusion criteria, 48,3% were male with the mean (SD) age of 20,7 ± 7,6 years. Mean hemoglobin value was 6,7 ± 0,9 g/dL and median (IQR) blood ferritin serum was 2873 (1900-3859) μg/L. Thirty-two subjects had neuropathy; 19 (31,7%) with mild neuropathy and 13 (21,6%) with moderate neuropathy.Conclusion. The incidence of peripheral neuropathy in patients with thalassemia according to TCNS score is fairly high.Latar Belakang.

Abstract

Background: Stroke is a leading cause of disability and the second leading cause of death worldwide. Ischemic stroke occurs due to vascular occlusion that restricts blood supply to the brain. Apolipoprotein B (ApoB) is the main component of atherogenic lipoprotein particles, which plays a role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. The NIHSS is recommended as a valid and accessible tool for assessing the severity of acute stroke. Although ApoB has been studied as a lipid biomarker, evidence regarding its association with the severity of ischemic stroke remains limited. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 72 ischemic stroke patients with onset <72 hours who were admitted to Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital, Padang, from February 2025 to July 2025. Data were collected through interviews, physical examinations, supporting investigations, and laboratory tests. ApoB levels were measured using the ELISA method, and stroke severity was assessed using the NIHSS. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 30.0, with statistical significance set at p < 0.05. Results: The mean Apolipoprotein B level was 105.25 mg/dL. Based on NIHSS assessment, patients with moderate stroke severity accounted for 43.1%, followed by mild stroke (37.5%) and severe stroke (19.4%). Statistical analysis showed no significant association between Apolipoprotein B levels and ischemic stroke severity (p = 0.614). Conclusion: There was no association between Apolipoprotein B levels and ischemic stroke severity.

Abstract

Acute ischemic stroke is a leading cause of mortality worldwide. Thrombolysis is the main treatment in the acute phase; however, clinical outcomes remain variable. Inflammatory markers such as the NLR and TGF-β1 may reflect inflammatory activity and tissue repair, yet their relationship with stroke severity is not fully established. This study aimed to evaluate the association of NLR and TGF-β1 with acute ischemic stroke severity in patients with and without thrombolysis. A cross-sectional study was conducted in the neurology ward of Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital, Padang. Patients with acute ischemic stroke, either treated with thrombolysis or not, were included. NLR and TGF-β1 were measured at 24 hours after onset, while stroke severity was assessed using the NIHSS at 24 hours. A total of 25 thrombolyzed and 25 non-thrombolyzed patients were enrolled. The results showed no significant association between NLR and stroke severity in either the thrombolysis (p=0.123) or non-thrombolysis group (p=0.257). In contrast, TGF-β1 was significantly associated with stroke severity in both groups (p<0.001 and p=0.002, respectively). In conclusion, TGF-β1 correlates with acute ischemic stroke severity regardless of thrombolysis, while NLR shows no significant association.

Abstract

Background: Acute ischemic stroke is a serious medical condition with potentially life-threatening consequences. It occurs when cerebral blood flow is obstructed by vascular occlusion, resulting in brain tissue injury. Neuron Specific Enolase (NSE) is a biomarker used to assess the extent of neuronal damage in patients with ischemic stroke. This study aims to evaluate the association between serum NSE levels, stroke subtypes, and stroke severity in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods: This observational study employed a cross-sectional design and included 67 patients with acute ischemic stroke. Serum NSE levels were measured using the ELISA method. Stroke subtypes were determined according to the TOAST classification, and stroke severity was assessed using the NIHSS score. Statistical analysis was performed to evaluate the association between serum NSE levels, stroke subtypes, and severity. Results: The mean serum NSE level was 14.038 ng/ml. Large artery atherosclerosis (LAA) was the most prevalent subtype with a moderate severity level. Statistical analysis showed a significant association between serum NSE levels and stroke subtype (p = 0.021) and severity (p = 0.034) in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Conclusion: Serum NSE levels are significantly associated with both stroke subtype and severity in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Abstract

Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) is the most severe form of extrapulmonary TB, causing high morbidity and mortality. The Global TB 2022 report estimates that there are at least 100,000 people with MTB each year. In 2021, there were at least 13,400 MTB cases in Indonesia, or about 8% of the global estimate. To determine the characteristics of tuberculous meningitis patients at M. Djamil Padang Hospital in 2024. A descriptive study with cross-sectional method. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling by collecting medical record data of TBM patients at Dr. M. Djamil Padang Hospital in 2024. The number of samples that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria was 45 sample. Data were analyzed using SPSS. Univariate analysis was used to assess the characteristics of patient and presented in the form of a frequency distribution table. The average age of TBM patients in this study was 31 years, dominated by male gender (55.6%). Most of the TBM patients had normal nutritional status (64.4%) and only 17.8% of patients were underweight. Only 13.3% of TBM patients had a history of TB and 6.7% of patients had positive HIV status. Around 4.76% and 11.1% of patients had comorbid DM and hypertension. Most patients were in stage II BMRC (71.1%). Hydrocephalus was the most common CT Scan finding, which was 46.7%. Only 26.7% of patients died during treatment. Tuberculous meningitis is more common in men, with stage II BMRC, has hydrocephalus, and more than a quarter of MTB patients died during treatment.

Abstract

Alzheimer’s disease is the leading cause of dementia, marked by progressive cognitive decline and neuropsychiatric disturbances collectively known as behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD). Plasma phosphorylated tau at threonine-181 (pTau181) has emerged as a minimally invasive biomarker of tau-related neurodegeneration, but its association with BPSD remains uncertain. This study investigated the relationship between plasma pTau181 levels and BPSD in Alzheimer’s dementia. An analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted in patients clinically diagnosed with predefined eligibility criteria. Plasma pTau181 concentrations were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), while BPSD was assessed using the Neuropsychiatric Inventory Questionnaire (NPI-Q). Statistical analyses were performed to examine associations between plasma pTau181 and BPSD status. Plasma pTau181 levels ranged from 4.32 to 97.23 pg/mL, with a median plasma pTau181 level of 19.29 pg/mL (IQR: 11.81-25.05) in patients without BPSD and 20.67 pg/mL (IQR: 11.81-43.41) in those with BPSD. No significant differences in pTau181 levels were observed between patients with and without BPSD (p = 0.310). These findings suggest that plasma pTau181 may not be directly related to the presence of BPSD in Alzheimer’s dementia. While plasma pTau181 remains a promising biomarker of tau pathology, its predictive value for neuropsychiatric symptoms appears limited. Longitudinal studies are needed to explore its role in BPSD pathophysiology further.
