Abstract

In most emerging markets, small and medium enterprises, (SMEs), lack access to thecredit and liquiditythey require for their dailyworkingcapital needs. Supply chain finance is a broad category of financing with multiple products,and it contributes significantly to global trade finance. This paper utilized several variables, such as changes in liquidity level (quick ratio), changes in debt bias, changes in the cost of goods sold, changes in earnings, and changes in stock returns through the supply chain finance. Employing binary logistic regression, the test results showed that accounts, such as current assets, current debt, long-term debt, net income, cost of goods sold, gross margins, were connected to the agent's opportunistic behavior when the financial health of the company has decreased. In the end, it concluded that SEMs in the management of these accounts was proven by supply chain finance in the preparation of financial statements and good distribution when the financial health of the company has achieved.

Abstract

Introduction:Vaginismus is a recurrent or persistent spasm of the muscles of the outer third of the vagina that interferes with coitus. The diagnosis of vaginismus is challenging since it requires the exclusion of possible organic comorbidities. Vaginismus needs to be differentiated from dyspareunia. This article comprehensively discusses the approach to diagnosis and management of vaginismus and highlights its differences from dyspareunia.Methods: A literature search was conducted in PubMed®, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar databases on February 7–8, 2024, using Boolean combinations of the specified keywords. No specific timeframe was used. Editorials, commentaries, and articles other than written in English and Indonesian were excluded.Results: The review found that vaginismus is characterized by involuntary pelvic floor muscle contractions and significant anxiety towards penetration, which is diagnosed mainly through patient history and physical examination. In contrast, dyspareunia encompasses a wider range of pain, which may be superficial or deep and can result from various physiological or psychological factors. Differentiating between the two conditions requires a detailed clinical interview, physical examination, and possibly additional tests to identify the specific cause.Conclusion: Treatment for vaginismus focuses on reducing fear and pelvic muscle spasms, while dyspareunia focuses on addressing the underlying cause and pain management.Pendekatan Diagnosis pada Vaginismus dan Cara Membedakannya dengan DispareuniaAbstrakPendahuluan: Vaginismus adalah spasme otot-otot sepertiga bagian luar vagina yang berulang atau terus-menerus dan mengganggu koitus. Diagnosis vaginismus menantang dan memerlukan eksklusi kemungkinan komorbiditas organik. Vaginismus perlu dibedakan dengan dispareunia. Artikel ini membahas pendekatan diagnosis dan penatalaksanaan vaginismus secara komprehensif dan menyoroti perbedaannya dengan dispareunia.Metode: Pencarian literatur dilakukan di basis data PubMed®, ScienceDirect, dan Google Scholar pada tanggal 7 – 8 Februari 2024 dengan menggunakan kombinasi Boolean dari kata kunci yang ditentukan. Tidak ada jangka waktu tertentu yang digunakan dalam pencarian artikel untuk tinjauan literatur ini. Editorial, komentar, dan artikel yang tidak berbahasa Inggris dan Indonesia tidak disertakan.Hasil: Tinjauan menunjukkan bahwa vaginismus ditandai oleh kontraksi involunter otot dasar panggul serta kecemasan signifikan terhadap penetrasi. Diagnosis utama didasarkan pada riwayat pasien dan pemeriksaan fisik. Sebaliknya, dispareunia mencakup spektrum nyeri, baik superfisial maupun dalam, yang dapat dipicu oleh berbagai faktor fisiologis atau psikologis. Untuk membedakan kedua kondisi tersebut, diperlukan wawancara klinis yang mendetail, pemeriksaan fisik, dan tes tambahan guna mengidentifikasi penyebab spesifik.Kesimpulan: Terapi untuk vaginismus berfokus pada pengurangan rasa takut dan spasme otot panggul, sedangkan dispareunia berfokus pada penanganan penyebab yang mendasari dan manajemen nyeri.Kata kunci: Diagnosis, dyspareunia, tatalaksana, vaginismus

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to investigate the risk factors associated with the lower IGF-1 protein expression in the uterosacral ligament in relation to the incidence of uterine prolapse. By identifying the relationship between IGF-1 protein expression in the uterosacral ligament and the incidence of uterine prolapse, it is anticipated that this study will provide a basis for the early identification of uterine prolapse.Method: This study utilized a cross-sectional immunohistochemistry method for IGF-1 protein on 34 pelvic organ prolapse (POP) subjects and 34 controls at RSUP Dr. Hasan Sadikin, Bandung, in 2024. A sample is taken from the distal portion of the uterosacral ligament, prepared into paraffin blocks and underwent immunochemistry staining. It was then reviewed and IGF-1 protein expression graded by a consultant pathologist. Results: IGF-1 protein expression in the uterosacral ligament was found to be lower in uterine prolapse patients (168.2 + 3.1) compared to those without uterine prolapse (181.2 + 13.3) (p=0.002).Conclusion: IGF-1 levels in uterine prolapse are lower than those without uterine prolapse.Perbandingan Ekspresi Protein IGF-1 sebagai Penanda Produksi Kolagen Tipe I pada Ligamentum Sakrouterina Penderita Prolaps Uterus dan Tanpa Prolaps Uterus untuk Pencegahan Prolaps UterusAbstrakTujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meneliti faktor risiko rendahnya ekspresi protein IGF-1 pada ligamentum sakrouterina terhadap kejadian prolaps uterus. Dengan diketahui adanya hubungan antara ekspresi protein IGF-1 pada ligamentum sakrouterina dengan terjadinya prolaps uterus, diharapkan penelitian ini dapat berguna sebagai acuan untuk identifikasi prolaps uterus lebih dini.Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan metode potong lintang imunohistokimia protein IGF-1 pada 34 subjek prolaps organ panggul (POP) dan 34 kontrol di RS Dr. Hasan Sadikin Bandung tahun 2024. Sampel diambil dari bagian distal ligamentum sakrouterina, dibuat blok paraffin, dan dilakukan pewarnaan histokimia. Ekspresi protein IGF-1 kemudian diperiksa dan dinilai oleh ahli patologi. Hasil: Ekspresi protein IGF-1 di ligamentum sakrouterina pada penderita prolaps uterus lebih rendah (168,2 + 3,1) dibandingkan dengan tanpa prolaps uterus (181,2 + 13,3) (p=0,002).Kesimpulan: Kandungan IGF-1 pada prolaps uterus lebih rendah dibandingkan dengan tanpa prolaps uterus.Kata kunci: IGF-1, kolagen tipe I, ligamentum sakrouterina, prolaps uterus

Abstract

Introduction: Surgical site infection (SSI) is the most likely complication following a Cesarean section (CS). SSI is considered a contributing factor to the occurrence of surgical wound dehiscence (SWD). This condition is often associated with various risk factors, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity. Understanding the risk factors and management of SWD in high-risk populations is essential for improving clinical outcomes.Case Report: A 27-year-old woman, G2P2A0, was referred due to SWD. The patient underwent a CS at a secondary-level hospital due to oxytocin drip failure 20 days prior to referral. She was diagnosed with SSI six days post-surgery, and had received antibiotics and undergone re-hecting 11 days after the CS. The surgical wound reopened two days after the re-hecting procedure, prompting referral. The patient had uncontrolled T2DM and morbid obesity as comorbidities. Physical examination revealed an open CS wound measuring 15x5x3 cm with exposed fascia and discharge of pus and blood. Wound care was performed using gauze coated with antibiotics changed every 12 hours. Antibiotic administration was based on culture, sensitivity, and resistance testing before another re-hecting procedure was performed.Conclusion: Obesity and diabetes mellitus were risk factors for SWD in this case. The use of antibiotics guided by culture sensitivity and resistance testing, effective SSI management, and early detection and management of comorbid conditions are necessary to prevent and treat SWD complications.Laporan Kasus: Recurrent Surgical Wound Dehiscence pada Pasien Infeksi Daerah Operasi yang Memiliki Komorbid Diabetes Tipe 2 dan ObesitasAbstrakLatar belakang: Infeksi Daerah Operasi (IDO) merupakan komplikasi yang paling mungkin terjadi setelah operasi Caesar (SC). IDO dianggap sebagai faktor terjadinya Surgical Wound Dehiscence (SWD). Kondisi ini sering dikaitkan dengan berbagai faktor risiko seperti diabetes melitus tipe 2 (DMT2) dan obesitas. Pemahaman mengenai faktor risiko dan penanganan SWD pada populasi berisiko tinggi menjadi penting untuk meningkatkan luaran klinis.Laporan Kasus: Wanita 27 tahun, P2A0, dirujuk karena SWD. Pasien menjalani SC di RS PPK tingkat II karena gagal drip oksitosin 20 hari sebelum dirujuk. Pasien didiagnosis IDO 6 hari setelah operasi dan telah mendapatkan antibiotik dan dilakukan re-hecting 11 hari setelah SC. Luka operasi terbuka kembali dua hari setelah re-hecting, sehingga pasien dirujuk. Pasien memiliki komorbid DMT2 tidak terkontrol dan obesitas morbid. Pemeriksaan fisik menunjukkan tampak luka bekas SC terbuka berukuran 15x5x3 cm dengan dasar fasia dengan nanah dan darah. Perawatan luka dilakukan dengan kasa dilapisi antibiotik dan diganti setiap 12 jam. Antibiotik diberikan berdasarkan hasil tes kultur, sensitivitas, dan resistensi, sebelum dilakukan re-hecting kembali. Kesimpulan: Obesitas dan diabetes melitus menjadi faktor risiko terjadinya SWD pada kasus ini. Penggunaan antibiotik sesuai hasil kultur sensitivitas dan resistensi, perawatan IDO, serta deteksi dan manajemen faktor komorbid diperlukan untuk mencegah dan mengobati komplikasi SWD.Kata kunci: Diabetes mellitus tipe 2, infeksi daerah operasi, luka operasi terbuka, rekurensi

Abstract

Perineal rupture is a common complication during vaginal delivery and can lead to long-term health consequences for the mother. This study aims to identify the risk factors associated with perineal rupture in normal vaginal delivery. A scoping review was conducted by analyzing relevant literature from 2020 to 2024. The results indicate that major risk factors for perineal rupture include birth weight, parity, duration of the second stage of labor, and the use of obstetric instruments. Additionally, pregnancy exercise and perineal massage were found to be effective in reducing the incidence of perineal rupture, particularly in primiparous women. Proper management of labor, including monitoring fetal weight and employing appropriate medical techniques, plays a significant role in minimizing the risk of perineal rupture. This study recommends the implementation of evidence-based preventive measures to reduce the prevalence of perineal rupture and its long-term impacts on maternal health.

Abstract

Introduction: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is the abnormal descent of pelvic organs that can cause various symptoms, including sexual dysfunction, especially in menopausal women. With increasing life expectancy, the prevalence of POP-related female sexual dysfunction is also rising. Sexual discomfort can result from vaginal wall thinning, stiffness, fatigue, and inability to achieve orgasm, affecting overall well-being and quality of life. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the improvement in female sexual function using the Indonesian version of the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) one week after pessary insertion in both sexually active (SA) and non-sexually active (NSA) women with POP. Methods: A descriptive before-and-after study was conducted on 20 women aged 50–65 years with POP grades II–IV at Al-Ihsan Hospital, Bandung, between November 2023 and January 2024. All subjects received ring pessary treatment. The FSFI questionnaire was administered before and one week after pessary insertion to assess sexual function. Results: Among 20 participants (mean age: 57 years), 16 (80%) reported sexual dysfunction before pessary insertion. After one week, 14 women (70%) were categorized as not having sexual dysfunction, while 6 (30%) remained in the dysfunction group. Of the 16 women initially affected, 11 (68%) experienced improved sexual function. The ring pessary proved effective without negatively affecting sexual activity. Conclusions: Pessary use in women with POP can improve sexual function without adverse effects on sexual intercourse. However, limitations include the small sample size, short follow-up, and use of only one pessary type. Additionally, multiple unmeasured factors, such as biological, cultural, and social factors, can influence outcomes.
