Abstract

Background: VO2 Max (maximal oxygen uptake) is a capability of oxygen with maximal capacity that used to the body to perform maximal exercise. The factor that most influence of VO2 Max is a physical activity. Cardiorespiratory endurance can be enhanced objectively by doing exercises or sports regularly, structurally, and continuously performed. Pedicab driver does his job by pedaling a pedicab every day, whereas the taxi driver does his job by driving a taxi every day. The aims of this study are to determine the differences of VO2 Max scores between pedicab drivers and taxi drivers in Surakarta. Methods: This study was an observational analytic with cross-sectional approach. The selection of the samples from the population has been conducted with purposive sampling. This study was conducted in the base of Kosti Solo in Mojosongo and in Surakarta. Two groups of samples, 30 taxi drivers and 30 pedicab drivers with the inclusion criteria (man, age 40 - 50 years; BMI ranged from 18.5 kg/m2 – 25.0 kg/m2; diastolic blood pressure < 100 mmHg; willing to be responders and filling and approved informed-consent; pursue work at least 5 years) conducted a study using Multistage Fitness Test (MFT), which the test is to run back and forth 20 yards. This value can be converted into the equivalent VO2 Max score using prediction table of the VO2 Max. The data were analyzed using non paired t-test (α = 0.05). Results: The results showed the mean scores predicted of the VO2 Max in pedicab driver was 25.79, while the taxi driver was 20.87. The data were analyzed by using non paired t-test that showed significantly differences between the two study groups, p = 0.000 (p < 0.05). Conclusion: There are significant differences of VO2 Max between the pedicab drivers and taxi drivers in Surakarta. Keywords: VO2 Max, pedicab drivers, taxi drivers, cardiorespiratory endurance, MFT

Abstract

Background: : Lichen Amyloidosis (LA) is one of the most common forms of primary localized cutaneous amyloidosis, with clinical manifestations of itchy blackish brown hyperkeratotic papules. The most predilection site is the upper extensor of the legs. This case report aims to improve the clinician’s knowledge regarding clinical features and supporting examinations to the provision of appropriate therapy in LA. Case Report: A 57 years old farmer presented to dermatology and venereology outpatient clinic of Dr. Moewardi general hospital with itchy black spots on nearly all over his body since 2 years ago. Dermatology examination obtained generalized papules and scaly hyperpigmented patches. Dermoscopy revealed a scar-like center with a whitish color in the center. Histopathological examination showed an amorphous eosinophilic (amyloid) in the dermis. Congo red examination demonstrated a reddish-orange amyloid. We treated the patient with oral cetirizine 10 mg/day, desoximetasone 0.25% cream applied twice a day in the morning and in the evening, Carmed® cream 20% cream applied twice a day in the afternoon and night, phototherapy 350 MJ/cm2 twice a week. We observed for 14 weeks. The lesion and itching started improving in week 8. Result: Lichen amyloidosis is resulted from amyloid deposits in the papillary dermis which are derived from degradation of basal keratinocytes. The diagnosis is based on history taking, clinical examination, dermoscopy and skin biopsy. The combination of phototherapy and topical corticosteroid can be an option for LA therapy, especially for the symptom of pruritus. Conclusion: Lichen Amyloidosis is the most common type of primary localized cutaneous amyloidosis, presents as blackish brown hyperkeratotic papules. The combined therapy of topical corticosteroids and phototherapy can significantly improve pruritus and skin lesions.

Abstract

Background: Erythroderma, a dramatic and potentially life-threatening condition characterized by fiery redness engulfing over 90% of the skin's surface, presents a formidable diagnostic challenge due to its myriad underlying causes. Among these, pityriasis rubra pilaris (PRP), a rare inflammatory skin disorder, stands out with its distinctive features and often perplexing presentation. This case unveils the intricate diagnostic journey of a young man whose erythroderma masked an underlying PRP, further complicated by the subtle interplay of stress. Case presentation: An 18-year-old male presented with a one-month history of alarming erythroderma accompanied by distressing itching, fever, and sleep disturbances. Adding to the complexity, he exhibited characteristic 'nappes claires' – islands of normal skin amidst the erythrodermic sea – a hallmark of PRP. Palmoplantar keratoderma, alopecia areata, and ectropion further painted an intriguing clinical picture. Histopathological examination revealed the telltale 'checkboard' pattern, confirming PRP as the culprit. Notably, the patient's history revealed a compelling link between stress and disease exacerbation, adding a psychosomatic dimension to the case. Systemic corticosteroids and methotrexate, alongside topical emollients, brought about significant clinical improvement, underscoring the importance of early diagnosis and targeted treatment. Conclusion: This case underscores the critical need to consider PRP in the labyrinth of erythroderma diagnoses, particularly when 'nappes claires' and a history of stress are intertwined. By shining a light on the diagnostic subtleties and therapeutic nuances of PRP-associated erythroderma, this report empowers clinicians to navigate the complexities of this rare and challenging condition, ultimately improving patient outcomes and quality of life.

Abstract

Allergic contact cheilitis (ACC) from lipsticks is a frequent diagnostic challenge, often mimicking irritant contact cheilitis (ICC). The patch test is the diagnostic standard, but its accuracy relies heavily on the interpretation of reaction dynamics over time. This report illustrates the pivotal role of the crescendo reaction pattern in confirming an allergic etiology. A 21-year-old female presented with a six-month history of debilitating pruritus, papules, and subsequent xerosis with severe post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation on her lips. The symptoms were directly correlated with the daily use of several popular commercial matte and long-lasting lipsticks. Patch testing was performed with the European Standard Series and the patient’s own cosmetic products. While standard allergens were negative, three specific lipsticks elicited a classic crescendo reaction: a weak positive (+) erythema at 48 hours that intensified to a strong positive (++) reaction with papules and palpable infiltration at the 72- and 96-hour readings. This dynamic confirmed a Type IV hypersensitivity reaction and a diagnosis of ACC. Management focused on strict allergen avoidance and barrier repair, resulting in complete resolution of symptoms and significant improvement in her quality of life. In conclusion, the crescendo pattern observed in patch testing is a compelling in vivo marker of an allergic, memory T-cell-driven immune response. Its presence provides conclusive evidence for ACC, reliably distinguishing it from the decrescendo pattern characteristic of irritation. Meticulous observation of the temporal evolution of patch test reactions is paramount for accurate diagnosis and effective patient management in cheilitis.

Abstract

Donovanosis (Granuloma Inguinale), caused by Klebsiella granulomatis, is a rare sexually transmitted infection that can follow a devastating course in severely immunocompromised individuals. Its clinical progression in the context of advanced acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is not extensively documented. We present a case of fulminant donovanosis to illustrate its potential for rapid systemic deterioration and mortality. A 20-year-old Indonesian man, with a recent diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) for which he was treatment-naïve, presented with a two-month history of extensive, painful perianal ulcerations. Clinical examination revealed large, coalescing, "beefy-red" ulcers in the perianal and gluteal regions. Laboratory investigations confirmed profound immunosuppression (CD4+ T-cell count: 3 cells/µL; HIV viral load: >750,000 copies/mL). The diagnosis of donovanosis was definitively established by the microscopic identification of pathognomonic intracellular Donovan bodies on a Giemsa-stained tissue smear, with findings corroborated by histopathological analysis of a skin biopsy. Despite the initiation of appropriate antibiotic and supportive therapy, the patient's condition rapidly progressed to septic shock and multi-organ dysfunction syndrome, leading to his death within six days of hospital admission. In conclusion, this case highlights the aggressive, life-threatening nature of donovanosis in the setting of advanced AIDS. The profound collapse of cell-mediated immunity likely facilitated uncontrolled bacterial replication and systemic dissemination, rendering standard antibiotic therapy ineffective. This report serves as a critical clinical reminder to maintain a high index of suspicion for donovanosis in immunocompromised patients presenting with atypical anogenital ulcers, as early diagnosis and aggressive multimodal management are paramount.

Abstract

Visible skin diseases like psoriasis vulgaris and vitiligo impose a significant psychosocial burden. However, the comparative impact on real-world functioning and the interplay of clinical, social, and psychiatric factors remain poorly understood, particularly in non-Western populations. This study aimed to quantitatively compare participation restriction between these two conditions and to identify its key biopsychosocial predictors. This comparative cross-sectional study, conducted in a tertiary Indonesian hospital, enrolled 50 patients (25 with psoriasis vulgaris, 25 with non-segmental vitiligo). The primary outcome was participation restriction, measured by the 18-item Participation Scale (P-Scale). Clinical severity was assessed using the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) and Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (VASI). Crucially, depressive and anxiety symptoms were screened using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) scale, respectively. A hierarchical multiple linear regression analysis was performed to identify predictors of participation restriction. Patients with psoriasis reported profoundly higher mean P-Scale scores (43.16 ± 5.01) compared to those with vitiligo (25.72 ± 4.21; p < 0.001), indicating more severe restrictions. Psoriasis patients also exhibited significantly higher scores for depressive symptoms (PHQ-9: 11.52 ± 3.18 vs. 5.68 ± 2.29; p < 0.001) and anxiety symptoms (GAD-7: 10.24 ± 2.95 vs. 5.12 ± 2.15; p < 0.001). The hierarchical regression model was highly significant (F(7, 42) = 28.14, p < 0.001), explaining 82.4% of the variance in P-Scale scores. After controlling for demographic and clinical factors, a diagnosis of psoriasis (β = 0.45, p < 0.001), higher clinical severity (β = 0.28, p = 0.002), and higher depressive symptom severity (PHQ-9 score; β = 0.39, p < 0.001) were significant independent predictors of greater participation restriction. In conclusion, psoriasis vulgaris is associated with a dramatically greater burden of participation restriction than vitiligo. This burden is driven by a complex interplay of the disease's clinical severity, its inherent diagnosis-specific factors, and, critically, comorbid depressive symptoms. These findings underscore the necessity of a biopsychosocial approach in dermatology, advocating for routine mental health screening and integrated care models to address the multifaceted drivers of disability in patients with chronic inflammatory skin disease.
