Abstract

Background: Oral candidiasis is an oral infection caused by Candida albicans. It is one of the most common opportunistic infections found in patients with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)/Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). Due to growing resistance and side effects to common antifungal drugs in recent years, there have been many studies on naturalsubstances as antifungal agents. In this study, Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) were examined for in vitro antifungal activity against Candida strains. Purpose: To compare the in vitro antifungal activity of EGCG and nystatin towards Candida sp. isolate in HIV/AIDS patients with oral candidiasis. Methods: This research was an experimental laboratory study conducted at the Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital, Surabaya. Forty isolates of Candida albicans and Candida non-albicans were included. The isolates were tested for antifungal activity using the well diffusion and microdilution method for nystatin 1000 IU and EGCG 1.25%. Result: Diffusion test results showed a greater inhibition zone for nystatin against all analyzed Candida strains with an average diameter for Candida albicans formed by EGCG of 2.15 mm and 7.4 mm for Candida non-albicans. Meanwhile, based on the microdilution test, EGCG was better than nystatin towards all analyzed Candida strains. This study showed EGCG Minimum Fungicidal Concentration (MFC) as high as 50% (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Nystatin antifungal activity was better than EGCG supported by a greater inhibition zone in the well diffusion method. However, the antifungal activity of EGCG was better than nystatin based on microdilution methods.

Abstract

Background: Fractional Carbon Dioxide (CO2) LASER has better efficacy compared to conventional LASER in treating scar tissue such as acne scars, keloids, and striae albae. However, a population with darker skin has a higher risk of side effects, especially in post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and side effects of fractional CO2 LASER in new patients with acne scars, keloids, and striae albae in the Dermatovenereology outpatient clinic. Methods: Retrospective analysis was done on 42 medical records of patients who met the inclusion criterion, which was those who have undergone fractional CO2 LASER treatments. The efficacy and side effects of the therapy were identified and analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 17 program. Result: A total of 42.9% of patients underwent fractional CO2 LASER treatments for acne scars, while 31% and 26.1% of patients received treatments for keloids and striae albae, respectively. There was a statistically significant decrease in the degree of acne scar (2.72 ± 0.83), keloid height (2.2 ± 0.405), and striae width (0.39 ± 0.02). The statistically significant side effects were hyperpigmentation (59.5%), crustae (26.2%), erythema ≥ for 4 days (19%), and new acne (19%). Conclusion: Fractional CO2 LASER was effective for treating scar tissue (acne scars, keloids, and striae albae) with a higher incidence of side effects in population with darker skin and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Abstract

Background: Leprosy is a chronic granulomatous infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae that affects peripheral nerves and skin. The interaction between M. leprae and Schwann cells causes irreversible damage to peripheral nervous tissue afterward disability occurs. Involvement of the major nervous trunks of the extremities can produce sensory-motor deficits. The risk factors are delay in diagnosis, gender, age, type of leprosy, duration of disease, number of affected nerves, leprosy reaction, type of treatment, socioeconomic factors, education, ethnicity, and occupation. Purpose: The aim was to study the profile of leprosy patients with disability who seek treatment in Leprosy Division Dermatovenerology Outpatient Clinic RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya. Methods: This was a descriptive retrospective study of leprosy patients with disability from January 2017 to December 2019. Result: The results of this study obtained a total of 275 leprosy patients with disabilities, which consisted of 76 patients (27.6%) with grade-1 disability and 199 patients (72.4%) with grade-2 disability. The majority were male (73.4%) and aged 25-44 years old (42.2%). Other dominant risk factors were MB type leprosy (92%), duration of disease more than 12 months (52.3%), no leprosy reaction (68%), and had received multidrug therapy (45.5%). Conclusion: Knowledge of disability risk factors can assist in improving management and education to prevent disability in leprosy patients.

Abstract

Provinsi Nusa Tenggara Timur (NTT) memiliki Total Fertility Rate (TFR) tertinggi (4,2 anak) dan yang terendah adalah Provinsi Yogyakarta (1,8 anak). Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengidentifikasi faktor-faktor yang berhubungan dengan angka fertilitas total di kedua provinsi tersebut. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif berdasarkan sumber data sekunder berbagai survei meliputi Survei Demografi Kesehatan Indonesia (1991-2007); Survei Kesehatan Nasional dan Survei Kesehatan Rumah Tangga tahun 2003; dan Mini Survei tahun 2007 dan 2008. Metode kualitatif dilakukan dengan diskusi kelompok terarah pada wanita pasangan usia subur (PUS) dan wawancara mendalam dengan pengelola program di kabupaten/ kota hingga ke desa/kelurahan. Ditemukan TFR di Yogyakarta sangat rendah dan sebaliknya di NTT sangat tinggi. Perbedaan TFR tersebut disebabkan oleh latar belakang demografi dan nondemografi seperti respons terhadap berbagai program penurunan fertilitas. Faktor budaya terhadap nilai anak berpengaruh besar terhadap jumlah anak yang ingin dimiliki. Tingkat pendidikan yang rendah berhubungan dengan faktor yang berpengaruh langsung terhadap pemakaian kontrasepsi, termasuk jenis kontrasepsi. Pelayanan Keluarga Berencana (KB) yang rendah memicu tingginya kebutuhan kontrasepsi yang tidak terpenuhi. Kesertaan ber-KB di NTT dan di Yogyakarta adalah 42,2% dan 66,9%. Wanita PUS yang keinginan ber-KB tidak terpenuhi masih tinggi di NTT (17,4%) dibandingkan dengan Yogyakarta (6,8%). Province of Nusa Tenggara Timur (NTT) have a total fertility rate (TFR) to the highest (4,2 children) and the lowest is the Province of Yogyakarta (1,8 children). This research is to identify factors that associated with total fertility rate in both provinces. This study uses qualitative method from the Indonesia Demography and Health Surveys (from 1991 to 2007), National Health Survey and Household Health Survey (2003), and Family Planning Mini Surveys (2007 and 2008). The qualitative method were collected using focus group discussions with fertile couple and in-depth interviews with family planning fieldworkers in district to village . The research reveals that TFR of Yogyakarta is very low and NTT is very high. The differentiation of the TFR is due to the demographic and nondemographic background as well as the respond againts the program to decrease the fertility. Cultural factor is the important one againts the value of children that will be influenced to the number of children desired in one family. Low education will be directly related to the use of contraceptive including mix contraceptive. Low family planning services which triggers the high unmet need oc contraceprive. Family Planning participation in NTT is 42,2% and 66,9% in Yogyakarta. Women on childbearing age who wishes to use contraceptive but unmet need in NTT were still high (17,4%) compared with Yogyakarta (6,8%).
