Abstract

Microbiological procedures for V. cholerae isolation from clinical specimens are important factors in clinical and epidemiological management of cholera. The standard preservation medium for enteric pathogenic bacteria, including V. cholerae, is Cary-Blair medium (CB), a semisolid medium for preservation and transport of specimens containing intestinal bacteria. A special medium for Vibrio organisms is alkaline peptone water (APW), which is both a transport and an enrichment medium. The purpose of this study was to ascertain the suitability of APW supplemented with 0.5% agar (APW-0.5) as a sensititive preservation-transport medium for rectal swab specimens for isolation of V. cholerae. A total of 144 paired rectal swab specimens were collected from children and adults with acute diarrhea. Of each specimen pair, one was placed in CB and the other in APW-0.5, from which they were plated out to thiosulfate citrate bile sucrose (TCBS) agar. Altogether, from both CB and APW-0.5 transported specimens, V. cholerae non-O1 was present in 29 (20.1%) specimens, while only 2 (1.4%) specimens were positive in CB and 9 (6.3%) positive in APW-0.5 transported specimens. The number of V. cholerae non-O1 isolates from APW-0.5 transported specimens was significantly higher (p=0.000) as compared to that from Cary-Blair transported specimens. It may be concluded that for isolation of V. cholerae, specimen transport in APW-0.5 medium was more effective than transport in Cary-Blair medium.

Abstract

Migraine is one of the most prevalent disorders seen in clinical practice today and also a major cause of disability in the workplace. The prevalence of migraine is highest during the years of peak productivity, ie, between the ages of 25 and 55 years. The triptans are a group of selective 5-hydroxtriptamine (HT)1 serotonin receptor agonists that activate the 5-HT1B/1D receptor and possibly also the 5-HT1A dan 5-HT1F receptors. To date 7 subclasses of serotonin receptors have been identified, namely subclasses 5-HT1 to 5-HT7. Triptan causes cranial vasoconstriction, inhibits peripheral trigeminal activity and the trigeminal afferents. With its triple action, triptans can control acute attacks of migraine. Triptan is contraindicated in patients with previous ischemic or coronary artery disease, cerebral or peripheral vascular disease and other cardiovascular disorders. Triptans should be given immediately after an acute attack of migraine. The triptans are useful in the management of an acute migraine, but are not indicated for preventive therapy of migraine. Several new advances in migraine management have been made in regard to the recognition of the disease, the pathogenesis of migraine, and the phenomenon of central sensitization. More treatment options become available to patients and prescribers, the impact of such therapy on worker productivity will become more important in determining the value of such interventions.

Abstract

Tuberkulosis masih menjadi masalah kesehatan di dunia demikian juga tuberkulosis pada kehamilan. Insidens tuberkulosis pada kehamilan makin meningkat. Tuberkulosis pada kehamilan mempunyai gejala klinis yang serupa dengan tuberkulosis pada wanita tidak hamil. Diagnosis mungkin ditegakkan terlambat karena gejala awal yang tidak khas. Tuberkulosis tidak mempengaruhi kehamilan dan kehamilan tidak mempengaruhi manifestasi klinis dan progesivitas penyakit bila diterapi dengan regimen kemoterapi yang tepat dan adekuat. Pemberian regimen yang tepat dan adekuat ini akan memperbaiki kualitas hidup ibu, mengurangi efek samping obat-obat tuberkulosis terhadap janin dan mencegah infeksi yang terjadi pada bayi yang baru lahir. Obat anti tuberkulosis yang diberikan dibagi dalam 2 golongan yaitu obat lini pertama dan lini kedua. Obat lini pertama, kecuali Streptomisin dapat digunakan pada tuberkulosis pada kehamilan. Penggunaan streptomisin dan obat lini kedua (kanamisin, etionamid, kapreomisin) sebaiknya dihindari pada wanita hamil karena efek samping yang akan terjadi pada janin, kecuali dalam keadaan resistensi beberapa obat.

Abstract

Aeromonas species are gram-negative, motile, facultative anaerobic, rod shaped, oxidase positive bacteria of the recently assigned family Aeromonadaceae. The significance of Aeromonas species as causative agent of human diarrhoea has recently been established. The aim of the present study was to investigate the distribution, and antibiotic sensitivity of Aeromonas in nonhospitalized children with diarrhea.One hundred and seventeen rectal swabs from children with diarhhea were cultured for isolation of Aeromonas organisms as the etiological agents. In addition to Aeromonas, other enteric pathogens were also isolated. Overall, the isolates of enteric pathogens amounted to 36.8%, consisting of Salmonella, Shigella, Aeromonas, and Vibrio. Aeromonas was only found in 5.1% of cultures, with a ratio of A. caviae and A. hydrophila of 2:1, while Salmonella made up the majority of causative organisms with an isolation frequency of 18.8%, followed by Shigella with 11.1%. In this study no isolates of Vibrio cholerae O1 were found as etiological agents of diarrhea; however, V. cholerae non-O1 and V. parahaemolyticus were found in small numbers (<1%). All isolates of Aeromonas were resistant to ampicillin and tetracycline, but sensitive to ciprofloxacin and ceftriaxone, as were the other enteric pathogens. Although the frequency of isolation of these enteric pathogens was higher than for Vibrio spp., their role in infective diarrhea was less clearcut in comparison with Salmonella and Shigella.

Abstract

Anemia is a very common disorder both in clinical practice and in the community. The recent rise in the population of the elderly has become the focus of attention in developing countries, because of the increasing longevity of the elderly, whilst the prevalence of anemia increases with age. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of anemia and its association with the quality of life in the elderly. A cross-sectional study was conducted from April to June 2008, located in the Mampang Prapatan district, South Jakarta. A total of 298 elderly persons participated in this study, comprising 109 (36.6%) males and 189 (63.4%) females. Anemia was measured by the parameters of hemoglobin and quality of life was assessed by the WHOQOL-BREF instrument, a short version of the WHOQOL-100 instrument. The results of the study showed the prevalence of anemia to be 26.2%, with a higher prevalence rate in females compared with males. The quality of life in the physical, psychological, social and environmental domains differed significantly with decreasing hemoglobin levels, whereas the physical and mental quality of life declined significantly with age. Anemia is thus indicative of a reduction in the quality of life of the elderly.

Abstract

Osteoporosis is a disorder having the characteristic features of low bone mass and structural degeneration. There are several factors affecting the prevalence of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women, such as age, age at menarche, duration of menopause, dietary or nutritional intakes, life style and level formal education. In connection with the increasing global prevalence of osteoporotic fractures, the purpose of the present study was to determine the prevalence and the influencing factors of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. A cross-sectional study, involving 203 postmenopausal women aged 47-60 years, was conducted in 4 villages of Mampang Prapatan subdistrict, from February to April 2010. Bone mineral density (BMD) of lumbar spine 1-4, femoral neck, and left radius was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (Lunar DPX Bravo Nomusa densitometer, GE Medical Systems) at Budi Jaya Hospital, Jakarta. The T-score threshold, defined as £ -2.5 was used to identify subjects with osteoporosis The results of the study showed that the highest prevalence of osteopenia of 45.8% was found in the femoral neck, while the highest prevalence of osteoporosis of 30% was found in the distal radius. Age, duration of menopause, and number of pregnancies yielded a significant correlation with BMD of the lumbar vertebrae and the distal radius. Body mass index (BMI) was also significantly correlated with BMD of lumbar vertebrae, femoral neck and distal radius. Effective strategies for the prevention and management of osteopenia and osteoporosis are needed.
