Abstract

Based on WHO data, Indonesia has the third largest leprosy burden in the world, afterIndia and Brazil. Although leprosy was declared to be eliminated in severalprovinces, there are still several leprosy settlements spread in Indonesia. Oneof these settlements is Neglasari village in Tangerang City, West Java, whereleprosy patients have been living since 1981. There is a scarcity ofinformation regarding the features of leprosy in Indonesia, especially aboutthe description of the patients’ posttreatment condition in terms of bothclinical sequelae and health services provided. A collaboration betweenmultiple departments of Ophthalmology, Dermatovenereology, and MedicalRehabilitation from the Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital/Universitas Indonesia,Jakarta, was established in the form of a health service program to determinethe number and features of disabilities of ex-leprosy patients. We providehealth services, including physical examinations, extend free medication andeye glasses, and impart knowledge about the chronic complications to patientsand local cadres. A nonroutine health service program for leprosy patients wasconducted in Neglasari village, which performed four primary activities ofpromotive, preventive, curative, and rehabilitative. The program included atotal of 260 patients, with a mean age of 50.45 ± 10.15 years and most of thembeing males (60.4%). A duration of >5 years of leprosy was found in 47% ofsubjects, and 96% of them have been released from treatment. Disabilitiescomprised 52.5% in the eye, 87.7% in the hand, and 92% in the foot. In total,65% of the patients had an uncorrected visual acuity of normal to mildimpairment, whereas 5.8% were blind. Eye abnormalities included madarosis(43.9%), entropion (41%), cataract (26%), corneal hypoesthesia (20.6%),trichiasis (17.8%), and lagophthalmos (15.1%), and examination of theextremities revealed that 16% of the subjects had an amputated foot. Spectacleswere successfully distributed to 100% of patients who were visually correctable.This proposed model for leprosy health care program involving multidisciplinaryexpertise is effective for screening numerous disabilities in leprosy patientsat one time. This enables caretakers to determine a holistic management that atthe end is intended to improve the quality of life of patients.

Abstract

Slip migration must be controlled to maintain the performance and quality of flexible packaging. Inorganic based anti-block materials can be used to control the slip migration. This paper reported the effect of anti-block type on the inhibition of slip migration on polyethylene monolayer film. A series of formulations were made with three different anti-block additives, namely talc, natural silica, and synthetic silica, along with erucamide. The optical properties (haze) and friction properties (COF) were measured to assess the film characteristics as the development of slip migration in the presence of anti-block additives. Characterization of the anti-block material was conducted by SEM-EDX, slip additive type was examined by GC-MS, while the slip content on the surface was analysed by FTIR. The result showed that after seven days, synthetic silica anti-block gives COF up to 0.095, with the trace erucamide content on the film surface of 394 ppm, the lowest amongst other types of the anti-block used. The smaller particle size and higher silica content on synthetic silica anti-block resulted in better friction properties which act as a good barrier to limit a migration of erucamide onto the film surface.

Abstract

Purpose: Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a vaso-proliferative disease of the retina associated with prematurity and is well known to be the leading cause of childhood blindness worldwide. Given the prevalence of ROP and the increasing demand for efficient screening solutions, this systematic review aims to update the current development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies for ROP diagnosis and screening, considering the appropriate AI types that align with the specific needs and workloads of ROP screening programs. Methods: We performed a systematic literature review of the English online literature databases by applying a general search strategy on April 20, 2024. Search phrases included multiple variants of terms including "ROP", "retinopathy of prematurity", "artificial intelligence", "diagnosis", "sensitivity analysis", "specificity", "area under the curve". Findings: A total of 12 studies were identified from varied countries. Summary: Review of the published literature demonstrate high sensitivity across different studies, indicating their strong potential for early detection of ROP but demonstrating variability in specificity. The review also underscores the importance of domain adaptation and validation across diverse populations to ensure generalizability. AI integration in clinical practice, especially in telemedicine, can enhance early detection, standardize diagnoses, and alleviate the burden on healthcare professionals, particularly in low-resource settings.
