Abstract

Introduction: Miscarriage is a reflection of the low quality of health in pregnant women. The incidence of miscarriage in the world accounts for 23 million (15%) of the 130 million births per year and up to 80% of miscarriages occur in the first trimester of pregnancy. Miscarriage will affect a woman's social, physical, and psychological. The complexity of the negative impact of miscarriage makes it necessary to pay special attention. Biomarker examination is needed to more accurately identify pregnancies at risk of miscarriage before the appearance of clinical symptoms. The use of fetal fibronectin (fFN) levels have been used as a marker of unexpected labor and as evidence of premature rupture of the fetal membranes. Normally fFN can be detected in cervical and vaginal secretions at <20 weeks gestation. The presence of fFN at >22 weeks gestation indicates disruption of the uteroplacental surface. Therefore, if screening for fibronectin levels using the Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) test can be carried out in the first trimester of pregnancy, there is a high possibility that miscarriage can be prevented.Method: The type of research is analytical observational research with a cross-sectional research design. The stored samples were examined for fibronectin levels using the ELISA test, which included 21 blood serum samples from normal pregnancy patients in the first trimester and 21 miscarriage samples.Results: The results of the ELISA test produced an average first-trimester normal pregnancy fibronectin level of 118.8 ± 18.4 ng/mL while the miscarriage fibronectin level was 208.2 ± 152.0 ng/mL. Data analysis using the Mann-Whitney test obtained a p-value = 0.138, which means there was no significant difference in fibronectin levels between normal pregnancy in the first trimester and miscarriage.Conclusion: This study concludes that fibronectin levels are not specific biomarkers in detecting miscarriage in the first trimester of pregnancy.

Abstract

Zinc is an essential micronutrient in the human body as a cofactor of about 300 enzymes. Zinc is very instrumental in the growth process, including maintaining the thymus so that atrophy is not fast. Zinc deficiency can affect the immune system. Zinc deficiency can be caused due to a lack of zinc intake. In theory, many factors affect zinc intake, among others, community knowledge, education, economy, diet, habits, and customs. Lambung Bukit Village is a fostered village of Andalas University. Most people in this village are classified as economically deficient because the community generally farms. The level of public knowledge about zinc is still lacking. This service aims to increase public knowledge of the importance of zinc on body health and the provision of zinc supplements to prevent zinc deficiency and is expected to reduce morbidity and mortality due to infection in children. This activity has been carried out at Bustanul Ulum Elementary School in Batu Busuk Village, Lambung Bukit Village, Pauh District, Padang City. Counseling conducted to 48 people (parents of students and teachers). Almost all parents' knowledge is lacking about zinc, the role, source of zinc, and its relation to several diseases. We hope this counseling can increase public knowledge about the importance of zinc on the body, mainly to prevent susceptibility to infections and any food sources that contain zinc. The results of a health examination by pediatricians found two students suffering from Congenital Heart Disease (CHD), poor oral hygiene, and many teeth carious students. Giving zinc syrup to children aged 7-10 years is expected to prevent zinc deficiency in children.

Abstract

Background: A rare genetic disorder characterized by the development of multiple benign bone tumors called osteochondromas. This condition is primarily hereditary and follows an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance, with mutations in the EXT1 and EXT2 genes being the most common genetic. Case report: This case report describes an 12-year-old boy with lumps in all four extremities accompanied by intermittent pain. Femur x-rays concluded MHE of the femur, tibia, and bilateral fibula. Histopathological examination shows that the cartilage tissue contains chondrocyte cells that form the cartilage cap. There is a transition of cartilage to bone trabeculae through endochondral ossification and bone marrow between the bone trabeculae. Discussion and Conclusion: MHE is a rare condition, with an incidence of approximately 1 in 50,000 to 100,000 live births. MHE is closely related to genetic mutations that occur in the EXT1, EXT2, and EXT3 genes. These genes code for enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of heparan sulfate, which is necessary for normal bone growth. Mutations in any of these genes disrupt the regulation of bone growth and lead to osteochondroma formation. Symptoms of MHE can range from mild to severe, and they tend to appear in childhood or adolescence. The main clinical manifestations include the formation of a hard lump on the bone, which can cause deformity, pain, and limitation of movement. Osteochondroma can also compress nerves or blood vessels, causing complications such as circulatory disorders or paralysis. We report a rare case emphasizing the typical morphology of multiple hereditary exostosis of the long bones to establish the final diagnosis without immunohistochemistry and molecular examination. In low-resource settings where molecular analysis is not available, histopathological examination are key tools to establish a correct diagnosis.

Abstract

Pendahuluan: Diffuse sclerosing Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma (DS-PTC) adalah subtipe PTC yang jarang terjadi dengan perilaku klinis yang agresif. Adanya ciri-ciri papiler membuat ahli patologi salah mendiagnosis tumor ini sebagai PTC konvensional. Namun, adanya keterlibatan kelenjar getah bening yang menyebar di kelenjar getah bening harus diwaspadai oleh ahli patologi. Laporan Kasus: dilaporkan kasus seorang pria berusia 35 tahun dengan benjolan di lehernya yang semakin membesar dalam 3 tahun, mengeluh sesak napas dan suara serak. Benjolan tersebut memiliki konsistensi padat, berukuran 12x7x5 cm dan 10x6x4 cm, dan mengikuti gerakan menelan. Nilai FSH dan T4 berada dalam batas normal. CT scan leher menunjukkan tumor tiroid kistik (sugestif ganas) dengan limfadenopati koli bilateral. Tiroidektomi bilateral dilakukan. Kelenjar getah bening (KGB) dan jaringan dikirim ke laboratorium anatomi patologis untuk diperiksa. Jaringan tiroid tampak berwarna putih kecoklatan pada penampang melintang dengan beberapa kista. Secara mikroskopis, terdapat proliferasi sel tumor yang membentuk struktur papiler dengan inti yang besar dalam mode tumpang tindih dengan gambaran groove dan ground glass. Ditemukan juga sklerosis stroma, psamoma bodies, dan metaplasia skuamosa, serta infiltrasi limfovaskular dan penyebaran sel tumor ke 26 kelenjar getah bening. Temuan ini konsisten dengan diagnosa DS-PTC stadium minimal pT3aN1bMx. Pasien ditangani dengan radioterapi setelah operasi. Kesimpulan: DS-PTC memiliki insiden metastasis kelenjar getah bening dan metastasis jauh yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan classic PTC.Temuan ini harus diperhatikan oleh ahli patologi saat mendiagnosis tumor.

Abstract

Background: Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is generally indolent, yet specific histological subtypes defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) are linked to aggressive behavior and poor prognosis. The loss of the cell-adhesion protein E-cadherin is a hallmark of the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a process implicated in tumor aggression. However, its role in stratifying PTC subtypes versus its correlation with tumor stage remains a significant controversy in the literature. This study aimed to disentangle these two parameters by clarifying the relationship between E-cadherin expression and both histological phenotype and tumor stage. Methods: This was an observational, cross-sectional pilot study on 40 randomly selected, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) PTC cases from a 2024 cohort (N=74) at a tertiary hospital in Indonesia. All cases were re-evaluated and classified according to the WHO 5th Edition (2022) criteria as non-aggressive (n=34) or aggressive (n=6). E-cadherin expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) using a standardized semi-quantitative scoring system (product of intensity and proportion) adapted from previous studies, with inter-rater reliability assessed (Cohen’s Kappa = 0.88). Scores were dichotomized as 'High' (n=25) or 'Low' (n=15). The association between E-cadherin expression and both histological subtype and AJCC 8th Edition tumor stage (Early: I/II [n=32] vs. Advanced: III/IV [n=8]) was analyzed using Fisher's Exact Test, with Odds Ratios (OR) and 95% Confidence Intervals (CI) calculated. Results: High E-cadherin expression was observed in 62.5% of cases. A statistically significant and strong association was found between E-cadherin expression and histological subtype (p=0.021; OR 12.0; 95% CI 1.2–118.9). Low E-cadherin expression was present in 83.3% (5 of 6) of aggressive-subtype tumors, versus only 29.4% (10 of 34) of non-aggressive subtypes. In contrast, no significant correlation was found between E-cadherin expression and advanced tumor stage (p=0.126; OR 3.67; 95% CI 0.7–18.6). Conclusion: Loss of E-cadherin expression is a significant biomarker associated with high-risk, aggressive histological phenotypes in PTC. Its lack of correlation with tumor stage, confirmed by an uncertain OR, suggests E-cadherin's role is indicative of an inherent tumor biological phenotype (aggressiveness) rather than a linear marker of tumor progression (stage). This dichotomy, likely reflecting EMT/MET plasticity, positions E-cadherin IHC as a powerful ancillary tool for pathological risk stratification.

Abstract

Background: Uterine smooth muscle tumor of uncertain malignant potential (STUMP) presents a diagnostic dilemma, especially in Southeast Asian populations, where delayed presentation often leads to advanced tumor burden. This study aimed to characterize the clinicopathological profile of STUMP in Indonesia using the 2021 WHO Classification and modified Stanford parameters. Methods: A descriptive study analyzed 37 STUMP cases diagnosed between 2023 and 2025 at a tertiary referral center in West Sumatra. A panel of pathologists re-evaluated archival slides for atypia, mitotic activity, necrosis, and growth patterns, establishing inter-observer reliability. Fisher’s Exact Test was employed to correlate tumor size with morphological markers of aggression. Results: The cohort demonstrated a distinct large-mass phenotype, with 54.1% of tumors exceeding 10 cm and a median diameter of 14.5 cm. Pathological review classified 56.8% of cases into WHO Group 4 (atypia with ambiguous mitosis). A statistically significant correlation was identified between tumor size >10 cm and the presence of infiltrative growth margins (81.1%; p=0.034). Conclusion: Indonesian STUMP cases are distinctively characterized by massive size and high rates of infiltrative growth, likely driven by prolonged natural history. The prevalence of ambiguous mitotic figures underscores the utility of the WHO Group 4 category in resource-limited settings. These findings advocate for aggressive surgical management and wider resection margins in large-mass variants to mitigate local recurrence risk.

Abstract

Histopathological tissue examination with routine staining sometimes cannot provide a clear morphology of certain cells or tissues, therefore special staining techniques based on histochemical reactions are needed. Periodic Acid-Schiff's (PAS) is a histochemical staining method specifically used to detect the presence of polysaccharide carbohydrates, neutral mucins and other glycoproteins. This article was written with the aim of increasing knowledge for practitionersor clinicians regarding the PAS technique procedure and how it is used in diagnosis. The method of writing scientific papers is a literature review sourced from various journals, books and scientific articles that are relevant and in accordance with the topics discussed. The PAS technique procedure begins with fixation in 10% neutral buffer formalin, preparation of materials and reagents, PAS staining with counterstain and interpretation. The addition of diastase was performed before PAS stain for PAS/D, and Alcian Blue staining was performed before PAS stain for the AB/PAS technique. Errors at each stage will affect the results of PAS staining. The use of combined PAS and PAS techniques in pathological diagnosis is to exclude the differential diagnosis of various tumors containing glycogen and mucin, examine the thickness of the basement membrane in various diseases, and identify Jamur and amoeba in tissue infections.
