Abstract

Nummular dermatitis (ND) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder characterized by round, coin-shaped lesions accompanied by itching and inflammation. Although more commonly affecting men aged 55–65 years, it can also occur in other age groups. Several risk factors contribute to its development, including dry skin, irritant exposure, infections, and environmental conditions. Family physicians play a vital role in promotive, preventive, curative, and rehabilitative efforts to improve patients’ quality of life. This study aimed to implement a comprehensive family medicine approach by identifying both internal and external risk factors and providing management based on Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM), emphasizing patient-centered, family-focused, and community-oriented care. This case report involved primary data collection through direct interviews, family anamnesis, physical examinations, and home visits to assess environmental, social, and family aspects. Secondary data were obtained from medical records. A holistic assessment using qualitative and quantitative methods was conducted throughout the management process. A 50-year-old woman presented with complaints of sudden-onset itching on the dorsal feet, knees, and arms persisting for one week, which progressively worsened and was accompanied by skin lesions. Interventions included patient and family education, family conference, pharmacological therapy, and supportive non-pharmacological management. Triggering factors identified in this case were dry skin, repeated trauma, limited health literacy, and occupational exposure. A holistic family medicine approach proved effective in reducing symptoms, enhancing patient knowledge, and preventing recurrence.

Abstract

One of the most common non-communicable diseases is dyspepsia syndrome. A collection of symptoms in the upper gastrointestinal tract known as dyspepsia syndrome includes pain or discomfort in the upper abdominal area, a burning sensation in the chest, a feeling of fullness and early satiety, nausea, and vomiting. Indonesia ranks third after the United States as the country with the highest prevalence of dyspepsia syndrome, reaching 40–50%. Various risk factors, such as age, gender, dietary patterns, breakfast habits, consumption of spicy and sour foods, fast food, irritative beverages (soda, coffee, alcohol), exercise habits, smoking, nutritional status, and socioeconomic factors, can lead to the occurrence of dyspepsia syndrome. Adolescence is one of the risk factors that influence the occurrence of dyspepsia syndrome. Adolescents who are at higher risk of developing dyspepsia syndrome are those of the female gender. Teenage girls are more likely to pay attention to body shape and have a desire to emulate their online idols, which can lead them to adopt strict diets and irregular eating habits. Excessive physical activity contributes to the poor eating habits and breakfast habits of teenagers. The consumption of unhealthy foods, such as spicy and sharp-flavoured dishes, will increase stomach acid production. Stress in adolescents can be one of the triggers for dyspepsia syndrome. Prolonged stress can disrupt the digestive system and cause symptoms in healthy individuals. Every teenager with a busy schedule must be able to manage their time and schedule to avoid dyspepsia syndrome by bringing a packed lunch during activities.

Abstract

Clitoria ternatea, commonly known as butterfly pea flower, is a tropical plant with high historical and cultural value, particularly in traditional medicine in Indonesia and Asia. This plant is rich in bioactive compounds such as phenols, terpenoids, and alkaloids, which contribute to its various pharmacological activities, including antioxidant, antidiabetic, antihyperlipidemic, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, hepatoprotective, and neuroprotective effects. The phenolic compounds in the flower function as natural antioxidants, while terpenoids and alkaloids support antidiabetic and anticancer effects. This review aims to evaluate the pharmacological potential of C. ternatea based on literature published in the last decade (2014–2024), sourced from PubMed, Google Scholar, Science Direct, and ResearchGate. Inclusion criteria were articles in English and Indonesian, while exclusion criteria included incomplete access articles, secondary reviews, and studies with weak methodologies. Based on this review, C. ternatea shows great potential as an alternative modern therapy, with consistent research demonstrating significant therapeutic activity and low side effects. Its bioactive compounds work through mechanisms such as enzyme inhibition, glucose regulation, inflammation modulation, and protection from oxidative stress, making it a promising candidate for innovative therapeutic development.

Abstract

As the world's largest palm oil producer, Indonesia bears a significant responsibility for the well-being of its farmers, including mental health aspects, which remain a pressing issue. Farmers face various occupational pressures that have the potential to trigger psychological disorders, particularly anxiety. Poorly managed anxiety can lead to decreased concentration and productivity. This study aims to describe the anxiety levels experienced by palm oil farmers in Simpang Pematang District, Mesuji Regency, Lampung. A cross-sectional design was employed in this study, utilizing purposive sampling for sample selection. A total of 109 palm oil farmers participated as respondents, and the collected data were analyzed using frequency distribution. The results indicate that 14.7% of farmers exhibited symptoms of anxiety, with 11.9% experiencing mild anxiety and 2.8% experiencing moderate anxiety. No cases of severe anxiety were found among the respondents. Although the overall anxiety level identified in this study was lower than in previous research, it remains a matter of concern. These findings highlight the necessity of continuous efforts to enhance the mental well-being of farmers. Therefore, a more intensive mental health promotion program is required to improve farmers' understanding of stress management strategies. By doing so, farmers are expected to maintain their psychological well-being, ultimately contributing to increased productivity in Indonesia's palm oil agricultural sector.

Abstract

Laboratory tests play a crucial role in the diagnosis and etiology of tonsillitis, especially in children. Tonsillitis, an inflammation of the palatine tonsils, commonly affects children aged 5–15 years and is a significant cause of morbidity associated with upper respiratory tract infections. The disease can be classified into acute and chronic tonsillitis based on duration, with causes varying from viral to bacterial infections. Laboratory parameters such as leukocyte, neutrophil, lymphocyte, platelet counts, and C-reactive protein are used to differentiate the etiology of tonsillitis. Bacterial tonsillitis generally shows an increase in leukocytes and neutrophils, while viral infections are more commonly associated with lymphocytosis. Complete blood count, throat culture, and rapid antigen detection test (RADT) are the mainstays of diagnostic testing. Throat culture is considered the gold standard for pathogen identification, although it is more time-consuming. RADT offers a faster alternative with high sensitivity and specificity. Anti-Streptolysin O (ASO) titer is also important to detect Group A β-hemolytic Streptococcus infection, which is often associated with chronic tonsillitis. Recent studies have shown a correlation between laboratory results and the severity of tonsillitis. For example, a study in Sudan found that 64% of patients with tonsillitis had neutrophilia, 54% showed an elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and 50% were ASO positive. These findings confirm the association between bacterial infection and chronic tonsillitis. However, interpretation of laboratory results must be done with caution, considering factors such as the time of sampling, examination technique, patient age, and the skill of the health care provider. Appropriate clinical decision-making requires the integration of laboratory results with the patient's clinical history. Further research is needed to explore the correlation between laboratory parameters, the severity of tonsillitis, and their impact on optimal therapy choices. A better understanding of these relationships will help improve the accuracy of diagnosis and the effectiveness of tonsillitis treatment.

Abstract

Adolescence is a critical phase of rapid growth characterized by the maturation of reproductive organs, known as puberty. In females, puberty is marked by the onset of menstruation, with menarche being the first occurrence of menstruation, typically between the ages of 12 and 14 years. However, the average age of menarche in Indonesia has declined over the years, leading to an increase in early menarche cases. Early menarche occurs at an age of < 11 years (9-10 years) that is primarily driven by elevated estrogen levels in the female body. Factors influencing early menarche include genetics, nutritional status, lifestyle, dietary intake, physical activity, stress management, socioeconomic conditions, sexual behavior, and media exposure. This literature review aims to examine the correlation between these factors and the decreasing age of menarche among adolescent girls in Indonesia. Nutritional status and imbalanced dietary patterns are external factors strongly associated with early menarche. Genetic factors, particularly maternal menarche age, significantly influence the likelihood of early menarche in daughters. Low levels of physical activity contribute to increased ovarian activity and elevated estrogen levels, thereby raising the risk of early menarche. Furthermore, insufficient physical activity is directly linked to early menarche. External influences such as media exposure shape sexual behaviors, which may accelerate menarche onset. Poor stress management also disrupts estrogen regulation, further contributing to early menarche.

Abstract

Abnormal uterine bleeding (PUA) is a gynecological disorder that often occurs in women of reproductive age characterized by menstrual disturbances both in number and duration. The prevalence of PUA worldwide ranges from 3-30% with a higher incidence during menarche and perimenopause. In Indonesia, PUA is estimated to occur in 20% of adolescents and 50% of women aged 40-50 years. Management of PUA requires a holistic approach that includes biomedical, psychosocial and behavioral aspects. The family medicine approach is an effective strategy by considering risk factors, lifestyle, and psychosocial conditions of patients. This study used a qualitative descriptive design with a case study. Data were collected through history taking, physical examination, supporting examination, and in-depth interviews. Interventions included medical therapy, health education, lifestyle modification, and psychosocial support. Patient Mrs. F, 35 years old, had complaints of abnormal bleeding outside the menstrual phase since one month ago. Internal risk factors include lack of knowledge related to PUA, inappropriate diet, and low awareness of routine control. While the patient's external factors include lack of family knowledge about PUA, appropriate contraceptive recommendations for patients and lack of family support. After the intervention, there was an increase in patient and family knowledge, improvement in the patient's diet and physical activity, and increased family attention and support for the patient.
