Abstract

Baricitinib is an approved selective JAK1/JAK2 inhibitor that can potentially inhibit IL-6 as the primary driver of COVID-19-related cytokine storm syndrome. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the effectiveness and safety of baricitinib therapy in COVID-19 patients. It was reported following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The search for eligible articles reporting the efficacy and safety of baricitinib on COVID-19 patients, published up to May 2021, was conducted using PubMed and Embase. The research protocol was registered at PROSPERO (CDR42021235282), and data were presented in a metasynthetic (descriptive) manner. Out of 878 identified articles, seven were eligible and consisted of three randomized clinical trials, one quasi-experimental study, two before-after (pre-post) studies, and one cross-sectional study. The articles suggested that baricitinib could improve the clinical conditions of COVID-19 patients indicated by negative PCR test results, improve breathing quality, and decrease: ICU requirements, length of hospital stay, as well as the risk of death. The trial studies showed that this inhibitor works better with a loading dose of 8 mg, continued with 4 mg daily. Baricitinib could also produce synergistic effects with standard therapy such as corticosteroid and remdesivir. Therefore, it is a promising candidate therapy for COVID-19 patients, but since the number and methodological quality of the studies are low, further and better research is needed to ascertain its potential use on COVID-19. Keywords: Baricitinib, COVID-19, JAK1/2 inhibitor Efektivitas dan Keamanan Baricitinib sebagai Kandidat Obat Covid-19: Tinjauan SistematisAbstrakBaricitinib adalah inhibitor selektif JAK1 JAK2 yang dapat menghambat IL-6 sebagai pemicu utama terjadinya sindrom badai sitokin terkait COVID-19. Tinjauan sistematis ini dilakukan untuk menilai efektivitas dan keamanan terapi baricitinib pada pasien COVID-19. Kami melaporkan penelitian ini dengan mengikuti pedoman Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). Kami menggunakan mesin pencari PubMed dan Embase untuk mencari artikel yang melaporkan efektivitas dan keamanan baricitinib pada pasien COVID-19, yang diterbitkan hingga Mei 2021. Protokol penelitian ini telah terdaftar di PROSPERO (CDR42021235282). Data disajikan secara metasintetik (deskriptif). Di antara 878 artikel yang teridentifikasi, ada tujuh artikel yang memenuhi syarat yang terdiri dari tiga artikel uji klinis acak terkendali, satu studi kuasi-eksperimental, dua studi sebelum-sesudah (pra-pasca) dan satu studi cross-sectional. Semua artikel menyatakan bahwa baricitinib dapat memperbaiki kondisi klinis pasien COVID-19 yang ditunjukkan dengan hasil tes PCR negatif, meningkatkan kualitas pernapasan, dan menurunkan: kebutuhan ICU, lama rawat inap, dan resiko kematian. Baricitinib tidak menyebabkan efek samping yang serius. Hasil uji klinis menunjukkan bahwa baricitinib bekerja lebih baik dengan pemberian loading dose 8 mg lalu dilanjutkan dengan baricitinib 4 mg setiap hari dibandingkan tanpa loading dose baricitinib. Baricitinib juga menghasilkan efek sinergistik jika dikombinasikan dengan terapi standar seperti kortikosteroid dan remdesivir. Oleh karena itu, dapat disimpulkan bahwa baricitinib adalah kandidat terapi yang menjanjikan untuk pasien COVID-19. Namun, karena jumlah dan kualitas metodologi penelitiannya rendah, penelitian lebih lanjut dan lebih baik secara metodologi masih dibutuhkan untuk memastikan potensi penggunaan baricitinib pada COVID-19.Kata kunci: Baricitinib, COVID-19, inhibitor JAK1/2

Abstract

Senyawa antioksidan diketahui dapat meningkatkan indeks aterosklerosis dan sekresi insulin. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui peran asam askorbat sebagai pengatur aterosklerosis dan kadar gula darah pada kondisi diabetes  (DM). Rancangan penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian  eksperimental dengan menggunakan 20 ekor tikus putih jantan (Rattus norvegicus L.) dengan berat badan 180-300 g, umur 23 bulan, sebagai hewan percobaan. Setelah aklimatisasi selama satu minggu, tikus tidak diberi makan semalaman dan keesokan harinya diinduksi aloksan dengan dosis 145 mg/kg berat badan (BB). Tiga hari kemudian, darah diambil melalui vena ekor tikus untuk menguji gula darah. Indeks arteriosklerosis (AI) ditentukan dengan rumus (kolesterol HDL total)/HDL. Sebagai hewan percobaan, tikus dengan kadar glukosa darah 200 mg/dl atau lebih dipilih dan dibagi menjadi 4 kelompok yang masing-masing terdiri dari 5 ekor tikus. kelompok I pakan standar; Kelompok II mendapat diet standar majemuk dan metformin; Kelompok III diberi diet standar dan asam askorbat dan kelompok IV diberi diet standar dan kombinasi metformin dan asam askorbat. Pada awal diabetes, berat  tikus dikurangi dari 240 g menjadi 220 g. Namun, setelah 2 minggu terapi asam askorbat, berat badan stabil, gula darah turun 65,57 dan 324,94 mg/dl menjadi 111,88 mg/dl, dan indeks arteriosklerosis menurun dari 0,324 menjadi 0,320.Antioxidant compounds are known to increase atherosclerosis index and insulin secretion. This study aims to determine the role of ascorbic acid as a regulator of atherosclerosis and blood sugar levels in diabetes (DM). The research design used was an experimental study using 20 male white rats (Rattus norvegicus L.) with a body weight of 180-300 g and 23 months of ageas experimental animals. After acclimatization for one week, the rats were not fed overnight and the next day the rats were induced with alloxan at a dose of 145 mg/kg body weight (BW). Three days later, the blood was drawn through the tail vein of the rats to test for blood sugar. The arteriosclerosis index (AI) was determined by the formula (total HDL cholesterol)/HDL. As experimental animals, rats with blood glucose levels of 200 mg/dl or more were selected and divided into 4 groups of 5 rats each. group I standard feed; Group II received a standard compound diet and metformin; Group III was given a standard diet and ascorbic acid and group IV was given a standard diet and a combination of metformin and ascorbic acid. At the onset of diabetes, the weight of the rats was reduced from 240 g to 220 g. However, after 2 weeks of ascorbic acid therapy, body weight was stable, blood sugar decreased from 65.57 and 324.94 mg/dl to 111.88 mg/dl, and the arteriosclerosis index decreased from 0.324 to 0.320.

Abstract

Enteropathy is a gastrointestinal disorder characterized by inflammation in the small intestine and one of the causes of enteropathy is the side effects of certain drugs, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The mechanism of NSAIDs, such as indomethacin, could inhibit prostaglandin synthesis, leading to a decrease in mucus production and small intestine integrity. To test the effects of a drug, it is necessary to undergo preclinical testing using animal models. Commonly used animal models such as mice and rats have several drawbacks including high cost, ethical issues, and long lifespan. Therefore, alternatives such as using invertebrate animals like Drosophila melanogaster as a more economical in vivo platform with genetic similarity to mammals and devoid of ethical concerns are needed. The aim of this study was to evaluate Drosophila melanogaster as an in vivo model organism in testing the side effects of pharmaceuticals that cause enteropathy. In this study, flies aged 3–5 days were starved and then placed into treatment vials comprising untreated control and indomethacin-treated (3.75 mM, 7.5 mM, and 15 mM). Survival analysis was conducted during the treatment period, followed by a Smurf assay test after seven days of treatment. Subsequently, the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine-related genes (drs and totA), mitochondria stability-related genes (tom40), and endogenous antioxidant-related genes (sod1, sod2, and cat) was performed using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Our data indicated that indomethacin did not impact lifespan or cause intestinal damage. However, we observed increased expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine-related genes, including drs, and a twofold increase in totA gene expression. Furthermore, there was a significant upregulation of mitochondrial stability gene tom40, endogenous antioxidant genes sod1 and cat, and a threefold increase in sod2 at 15 mM indomethacin. Although no phenotypical changes in gut integrity were detected, the increased expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine genes suggests the occurrence of inflammation in the indomethacin-treated flies.

Abstract

Background: Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC) is a malignant tumor that grows from epithelial cells that line the surface of the nasopharynx and has a tumor position close to the base of the skull, vital structures, and anatomical locations that are difficult to reach and various symptoms are the cause of increased patient mortality and morbidity rates. This research aims to identify the most effective chemotherapy effect on reducing tumor mass in nasopharyngeal cancer patients. Material and Methods: This study was conducted retrospectively based on patient medical record data from January 2019 to December 2021 at Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo General Hospital. Inclusion criteria included NPC patients who received cisplatin, carboplatin, paclitaxel, and docetaxel chemotherapy and had complete data on tumor mass size before and after receiving chemotherapy from Series I to Series VI. The resulting assessment of tumor mass size was further categorized using RECIST. Results: A total of 166 NPC patients met the inclusion criteria. The results of the study obtained that NPC patients suffered more in men than women, most NPC patients were aged (41-50), Stage IVA had the highest percentage found in NPC patients, Histopathology based on WHO type III was most commonly found in 109 patients, 70 patients used the Cisplatin+Paclitaxel chemotherapy regimen, 55 patients used the Cisplatin+Paclitaxel chemotherapy regimen had a partial tumor mass response. Conclusions: The combination of Cisplatin + Paclitaxel has the most partial response to the tumor mass of NPC patients at Wahidin Sudirohusodo General Hospital, Makassar.

Abstract

Stunting resulting from undernutrition is a significant global health challenge, particularly in developing countries, yet its underlying mechanisms and consequences remain inadequately understood. This study utilizes Drosophila melanogaster as an in vivo model to investigate the molecular basis of stunting. Due to the conserved nature of signaling pathways between Drosophila and vertebrates, this organism serves as an effective model for studying growth disorders. The aim of this study was to establish a Drosophila model exhibiting a stunting-like phenotype and to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying this condition. The stunting phenotype was induced through dietary manipulation, involving a standard nutrient-rich diet (100%) and treatment diets with reduced concentrations of sucrose, glucose, yeast, and cornmeal at 50%, 25%, and 12.5%. Phenotypic assessments included measurements of larval body size, fecundity, survival rates, and locomotor activity, alongside molecular analyses of gene expression related to metabolism, cell proliferation, and survival, using RT-qPCR. Results demonstrated that undernutrition profoundly affected D. melanogaster, causing growth retardation, reduced larval body size, diminished fecundity, and lower survival rates, though locomotor function remained unaffected. Molecular analysis revealed a significant decrease in the expression of the totA gene and notable increases in the expression of dilp5, srl, and indy genes, with no significant changes observed in the expression of the pepck gene. These findings indicate that undernutrition induces a stunting-like phenotype, likely driven by alterations in the expression of genes associated with metabolism, cell proliferation, and survival. Overall, this study establishes D. melanogaster as a valuable in vivo model for studying stunting-like phenotypes resulting from nutritional deficiencies and provides insights into the molecular pathways involved in growth impairment.

Abstract

Interprofessional collaboration is crucial for addressing the complexity of health problems, requiring contributions from various professions to enhance healthcare quality, improve patient satisfaction, and achieve better clinical outcomes. The aim of this study was to develop and validate the physicians and pharmacists collaborative practice instrument, known as KOMPAK (Kolaborasi Medis Persepsi Apoteker dan Dokter/Medical Collaboration: Perceptions of Pharmacists and Physicians) for use in Indonesia. A cross-sectional study was conducted across the western, central, and eastern rigors of Indonesia, targeting physicians and pharmacists. The study included translation (forward and backward), cross-cultural adaptation (with 30 participants), and validation using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) among 315 physicians and 315 pharmacists. The present study found no significant changes emerged during the translation and adaptation phases. In the validation phase, the CFA results for the physician instrument indicated a Comparative Fit Index (CFI) of 0.94 (>0.92), Tucker-Lewis Index (TLI) of 0.93 (>0.92), Root Mean Squared Error of Approximation (RMSEA) of 0.055 (<0.07), Standardized Root Mean Residual (SRMR) of 0.07 (<0.08), and Cronbach’s Alpha reliability of 0.88. The pharmacist instrument yielded similar results with a CFI of 0.94 (>0.92), TLI of 0.93 (>0.92), RMSEA of 0.06 (<0.07), SRMR of 0.05 (<0.08), and Cronbach’s Alpha reliability of 0.83. The final instrument consists of 24 items. In conclusion, the KOMPAK instrument demonstrated validity and reliability, supporting its use for measuring interprofessional collaboration between physicians and pharmacists in Indonesia.

Abstract

Glochidion philippicum has been suggested to exhibit considerable pharmacological potential, yet its chemical composition and bioactivity remain inadequately explored. The aim of this study was to investigate the chemical fingerprint and antioxidant properties of G. philippicum leaf extracts using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) with chemometric analyses, and in vitro and in vivo evaluations. Four extraction methods (maceration, reflux, ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE), and microwave-assisted extraction (MAE)) were optimized with water, 70% ethanol, ethyl acetate, and n-hexane as solvents. FTIR profiles were analyzed with principal component analysis (PCA), hierarchical cluster analysis, and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis. An in vitro study assessing the free radical scavenging capacity was conducted using the 2,2'-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), and ferric-reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) methods, while in vivo evaluations were conducted using Drosophila melanogaster to measure antioxidant enzyme activity and expression of endogenous antioxidant-related genes. FTIR profiles identified functional groups contributing to antioxidant activity. In vitro assays using ABTS and FRAP methods revealed that extracts obtained with 70% ethanol and water exhibited the highest antioxidant activity, attributed to key functional groups such as C=C (aromatic), O−H (acidic), N=O (nitro), and C−O (ester). In vivo studies showed that ethanol-based MAE extracts (MAEEO) significantly improved the survival of autoinflammatory PGRP-LBΔ mutant larvae exposed to heat-killed Escherichia coli. Real-time quantitative PCR analysis indicated this effect was dependent on endogenous antioxidant gene activation. The study highlights that G. philippicum leaf extracts as a natural source of bioactive compounds with exogenous antioxidant properties, offering potential for therapeutic applications.
