Abstract

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease that attacks the skin and can occur at any age with various clinical variations. The diagnosis is generally made clinically, but in atypical cases a biopsy is required for confirmation. The combination of clinical and histopathological examination provides more accurate diagnosis results. This study aims to assess the suitability of clinical diagnosis and histopathological examination results in psoriasis vulgaris in Semarang Regency. This cross-sectional observational study was conducted by the department of dermatology, venereology and aesthetics at Diponegoro University. A total of 10 samples were clinically diagnosed as psoriasis vulgaris or other morphological types of psoriasis vulgaris at a Dermatology Polyclinic in Semarang Regency, over a period of 2 years. The clinical manifestations of 10 cases with a clinical diagnosis of psoriasis vulgaris assessed from the typical predilection and the presence of scaly plaques tended to be consistent with the histopathological diagnosis but were not statistically significant. Concordance between clinical diagnosis and histopathological diagnosis was observed in 8 (80%) cases and discordance in 2 (20%) cases. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that there is a high level of agreement (80%) between clinical diagnosis and histopathological features in cases of psoriasis vulgaris.

Abstract

Repairing the skin barrier with moisturizers is one of the five main pillars of treating atopic dermatitis. Petrolatum is considered the gold standard, but its consistency is too thick and oily making it less comfortable to use. Moisturizers containing pomegranate extract (Punica granatum) can be an alternative choice that is more comfortable to use. The effectiveness of this pomegranate extract can be eval__uated using TEWL and pH examinations which are considered accurate indicators for changes in skin barrier conditions. Effectiveness of topical administration of 0.1% pomegranate extract in reducing TEWL and skin pH in sufferers with a history of AD.Single blind randomized clinical trial with two parallel group pre and post design. 34 sufferers with a history of AD were randomly divided into treatment groups (topical 0.1% pomegranate extract, 17 subjects) and control group (topical 100% petrolatum, 17 subjects). Moisturizer was applied twice daily to the volar area of ​​the forearm for 4 weeks. Both groups showed a significant decrease in TEWL after 4 weeks with a TEWL delta of -5.2±2.31g/m2/hour (p<0.001) in the pomegranate extract group and-7.0±7.95g/m2/hour(p=0.003) in the petrolatum group. There was no significant difference in TEWL reduction between the two study groups.The pomegranate extract group showed a significant decrease in pH after 4 weeks with a pH delta of -0.5±0.10(p<0.001), while the petrolatum group actually showed a slight increase with a pH delta of0.0±0.59 (p=0.6). The pomegranate extract group showed a significantly greater decrease in pH (p<0.001).Topical 0.1% pomegranate extract is as effective as 100% petrolatum in reducing TEWL, but more effective in lowering skin pH.

Abstract

Background: Acne vulgaris is common in adolescents and young adults and can decrease quality of life. Self-medication with creams containing topical corticosteroids is still prevalent and has the potential to trigger inflammatory acne. Objective: This study assessed the relationship between exposure to steroid-containing creams and the appearance of inflammatory acne. Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted among adolescents and young adults aged 15–41 years with acne complaints, recruited via an online questionnaire using consecutive sampling (n = 110). Topical steroid exposure (yes/no) and inflammatory acne occurrence (yes/no, assessed using reference lesion images) over the past 3 months were the primary independent and outcome variables, respectively. The association was evaluated using the Pearson chi-square test, with prevalence ratio (PR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Results: Of 110 subjects (mean age, 22.95 years; 54.5% female), 28.2% reported topical steroid exposure and 69.1% had inflammatory acne. The proportion of inflammatory acne was significantly higher in the exposed group (90.3%) than in the unexposed group (55.7%), with a PR of 1.62 (95% CI, 1.28–2.06; p = 0.001). The dominant symptoms in the inflammatory acne subgroup were a burning/heat sensation (56.6%) and pain (50.0%). Conclusion: Topical steroid exposure was significantly associated with inflammatory acne in this population. These findings underscore the need to avoid unsupervised use of steroid-containing anti-acne creams. The cross-sectional design limits causal inference; therefore, prospective studies with clinical confirmation and control of confounding factors are warranted.

Abstract

Background: Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are a reproductive health problem closely associated with socioeconomic conditions. Economic downturns can hinder access to timely sexual health services, condoms, and treatment, potentially increasing vulnerability to STIs. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the association between perceived socioeconomic decline and self-reported STI diagnosis among sexually active adults. Methods: This study used an analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach. The subjects were sexually active adults who met the eligibility criteria. Data were collected using structured questionnaires assessing perceived economic decline, sexual history, and STI diagnosis status. The association between economic decline and STI occurrence was analyzed using the chi-square test, and the prevalence ratio (PR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI) was reported. Results: This study involved 92 subjects, with a mean age of 30.49 ± 6.00 years. The proportion of STIs in the group experiencing economic decline was 31.3%, whereas the proportion in the group without economic decline was 10.7%. Perceived economic decline was associated with STI prevalence (PR = 2.917; 95% CI: 0.943–9.023; p = 0.036), although the CI crossing 1.0 warrants cautious interpretation. Conclusion: Economic downturn was associated with the incidence of STIs. Further research is recommended using a prospective design with multivariate analysis and clinically confirmed STI diagnoses. These findings have implications for public health practice, particularly in designing STI prevention programs that integrate economic support components and address socioeconomic vulnerabilities. Health policymakers should consider incorporating STI screening and education into social protection programs targeting economically distressed populations.

Abstract

Local anesthesia is commonly used in a variety of dermatological procedures to reduce pain and improve patient comfort. However, some side effects can occur, including burning sensations, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, blurred vision, and even impaired consciousness. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of local anesthesia on patient comfort during dermatological procedures. The study was conducted at an aesthetic clinic in Semarang from 7 to 9 February, involving 20 patients (2 men and 18 women). This study uses a quantitative descriptive study with a cross-sectional approach to assess patient comfort and side effects after local anesthesia in dermatologic procedures. Patients aged 18 and older who consent will be recruited consecutively. Researchers will using observation checklist and vital sign chart to collect demographic and clinical data, observe and record specific side effects such as feeling hot/sore, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, blurred vision, impaired consciousness, and fainting during and up to 30 minutes after the procedure, and monitor vital signs before and after the procedure. The results showed that 16 out of 20 patients reported no complaints after the procedure. Three patients experienced a burning sensation, while one patient experienced nausea and vomiting. None of the patients reported dizziness, blurred vision, loss of consciousness, or fainting. In conclusion, local anesthesia provides a high level of comfort for patients with minimal side effects. Therefore, it remains a safe and effective option for dermatological procedures, although monitoring individual responses remains important.

Abstract

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) remain a major public health concern, particularly among young individuals of reproductive age. Educational attainment influences health behaviors, knowledge, and access to preventive services related to STIs. This study aims to analyze the influence of educational level on the incidence of STIs among individuals of reproductive age. A literature review method was employed using databases such as PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar to identify relevant observational studies. The selected studies included cross-sectional and other observational designs that examined the relationship between educational level and STI incidence. Data were synthesized narratively, and key findings from the included studies were reported. The results of five studies included in the review consistently demonstrated that individuals with lower educational attainment had a higher risk of STIs. The prevalence was approximately 18% among those with lower education compared to 11% among those with higher education (p < 0.001), and as high as 60% versus 40% in hospital-based populations (p < 0.05). Higher educational attainment was associated with better knowledge, safer sexual behaviors, and improved preventive practices. These findings suggest that educational level plays a significant role in shaping health literacy, risk perception, and access to STI prevention services. Individuals with higher levels of education are more likely to engage in preventive behaviors, thereby reducing the incidence of STIs. In conclusion, higher educational attainment is associated with a lower risk of STIs among individuals of reproductive age, indicating that education is an important factor in STI prevention. Further large-scale longitudinal studies are needed to strengthen causal evidence and inform public health interventions.

Abstract

Aesthetic procedures are increasingly performed worldwide and are associated with improved appearance satisfaction and quality of life. The success of aesthetic procedures is no longer measured solely by objective clinical outcomes but is increasingly evaluated using patient-reported outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate changes in quality of life before and after facial aesthetic surgery and non-surgical cosmetic procedures. This online survey-based pre-post analytical observational study used a structured questionnaire administered to adults aged 18 years or older who had undergone surgical or non-surgical facial cosmetic procedures within the previous 3–12 months. Quality of life was assessed using three FACE-Q domains: Appearance (23 items), Health-Related Quality of Life (10 items), and Adverse Effects (6 items), with each domain scored on a scale ranging from 0 to 100. Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 25.0. A total of 180 patients were included in the analysis (mean age, 30.26 ± 8.24 years; 53.9% underwent non-surgical procedures, and 46.1% underwent surgical procedures). Appearance scores improved from 52.48 ± 7.97 to 83.89 ± 8.02, Health-Related Quality of Life scores improved from 51.22 ± 8.74 to 84.12 ± 7.62, and Adverse Effects scores improved from 47.73 ± 8.79 to 80.92 ± 8.74 (all p < 0.001). Improvements in the non-surgical group were +32.23, +33.75, and +32.81 points, respectively, whereas the surgical group demonstrated improvements of +30.46, +31.90, and +33.61 points, respectively (all p < 0.001). Post-treatment scores were comparable between the non-surgical and surgical groups for Appearance (84.81 vs. 82.81; p = 0.094), Health-Related Quality of Life (85.08 vs. 82.99; p = 0.066), and Adverse Effects (80.49 vs. 81.41; p = 0.485). Overall, both surgical and non-surgical facial cosmetic procedures resulted in substantial and comparable improvements in appearance satisfaction and quality of life, supporting patient-reported outcomes as a key indicator of successful aesthetic treatment.
