Abstract

Background: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a pathological condition of esophagus caused by reflux of gastric content or gastric juice with multifactorial etiologies. Some complications may occur such as: ulcer, bleeding, stricture, Barret’s esophagus and esophageal adenocarcinoma. One of risk factors that currently taken into concern is obesity. Our study aimed to identify obesity and abdominal obesity as the risk factor in the development of erosive GERD and to recognize that abdominal obesity is more important factor compared to obesity itself as the risk factor on the incidence of erosive GERD.. Method: Our study was a cross-sectional study. Data was obtained from eligible patients at Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Internal Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia between June and September 2009 Results: Samples were 74 patients with mean age of 48.61 ± 8.64 years. The proportion of female patients was larger than male (60.81% vs. 39.19%). The endoscopic assessment of upper gastrointestinal tract based on Los Angeles Classification included: Grade A esophagitis: 27.03%, Grade B: 16.21%, Grade C: 4.05%, Grade D: 1.35%. Obesity (odds ratio (OR) 17.160; 95% confidence interval (CI) 5.219 – 56.418, p = 0.000) and abdominal obesity (OR 10.371, 95% CI 3.260 – 32.915; p = 0.000) has been proven as risk factors in the development of erosive GERD. Conclusion: There is a correlation between obesity and abdominal obesity as risk factors on the development of erosive GERD. Obesity becomes a more important factor compared to abdominal obesity as the risk factor on the development of erosive GERD. Keywords: erosive gastroesophageal reflux disease, obesity, abdominal obesity, risk factor

Abstract

Incidence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) has been significantly increased, and nearly 25% of the population has experienced GERD. It appears to be correlated to an increasing number of obesity in the population (BMI 30 kg/m2). Mechanism of the GERD is affected by multifactor. Increased intra-abdominal pressure is considered as one of risk factors for GERD. The development of GERD is virtually associated with a down turning of lower esophageal sphincter tonus, increased transient lower esophagus sphincter relaxation (TLESR), and decreased capacity of esophageal clearance. Management of GERD in obesity includes weight loss treatment, pharmacotherapy by using prokinetics, H2 -receptor antagonists, proton pump inhibitor and surgical approach including fundoplication, gastric banding and vertical banded gastroplasty. Keywords: GERD, obesity, BMI, TLESR, weight loss, abdominal pressure

Abstract

People are capable of ingesting, inserting, or injecting themselves or others with all manner of foreign objects. Ingested or inserted foreign bodies may cause bowel obstruction or perforation; which lead to severe hemorrhage, abscess formation, or septicemia; or distant embolization. Fortunately, once a foreign body has reached the stomach, it has an 80-90% chance of passage. All sharp foreign bodies should be removed before they pass from the stomach because 15-35% of these will cause intestinal perforation, usually in the area of the ileocecal valve. The abdominal radiograph should be made and repeated to confirm the location of foreign bodies. If a sharp foreign body does not progress for three consecutive days, surgical intervention should be considered and, if the patient becomes symptomatic, surgical intervention will be necessary. In this case, the patient had accidentally swallowed needle 2 days prior to admission, with no complaint any symptoms of abdominal discomfort, and no bloody stools. Observation is the treatment of choice for this case, since needle had passed stomach and reached colon, and it is hoped that the needle pass through without any complication. Keywords: sharp foreign bodies, needle, swallowing

Abstract

Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is an inherited kidney disorder characterized by the formation of multiple fluid-filled cysts in the kidneys, frequently involving other organs such as the liver. It is a progressive condition that can lead to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). This case report aims to explore the clinical course and management approach of a PKD patient with poor follow-up adherence since diagnosis. A 55-year-old female with a diagnosis of PKD since 2009 presented with abdominal enlargement, fatigue, and right upper quadrant discomfort. Despite a positive family history, the patient did not receive regular monitoring and relied on herbal remedies. Over 16 years, disease progression was marked by significant increases in serum urea and creatinine, development of multiple renal and hepatic cysts, and progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 4–5. The patient currently suffers from hepatic cyst complications and ESRD. This case highlights the accelerated progression of PKD in the absence of consistent clinical monitoring and early therapeutic intervention. It underscores the importance of early detection, regular renal function evaluation, patient and family education, and supportive care. Planning for renal replacement therapy and genetic screening of offspring are crucial to mitigate disease progression and improve outcomes in PKD patients.
