Abstract

Human immunodefiiency virus (HIV) infection and aquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)cause a progressive depletion of CD4+ T cell populations accompanied by progressive impairmentof cellular immunity and increasing susceptibility to opportunistic infections. Seborrheic dermatitisis one of the most common skin opportunistic infections on HIV/AIDS patients. Malasseziaspecies is bilieved as the causative of seborrheic dermatitis. The aim of the study was to evaluatelow CD4+ T cell counts as risk factor for Malassezia sp. infection in HIV/AIDS patients. This wasan observational study with cross-sectional design conducted on HIV/AIDS patients who attendedin Department of Dermatology and Venereology, Faculty of Medicine Universitas Gadjah Mada/Dr Sardjito General Hospital, Yogyakarta and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Culture ofMalassezia sp. was conducted in Department of Microbiology and classified as high (>100 CFU/tape) and low (<100 CFU/tape) density colonies. CD4+ T cell counts were measured in Departmentof Clinical Pathology and classified as high (>200 cells/mm3) and low (<200 cells/mm3) CD4+ Tcell counts. A total of 83 subjects with HIV/AIDS comprising 54 (65.1%) males and 29 (34.9%)females aged 20 - >60 years were involved in the study. The number of Malassezia sp. colonyon subjects with high and low CD4+ T cell counts were 31.55 ± 26.21 and 25.2 ± 33.89 CFU/tape, respectively. No significantly relationship between between CD4+ T cell count and Malasseziasp. colony number was observed in the study (p=0.607; 95%CI=0.04-5.19; RP=0.452). Inconclusion, low CD4+ T cell counts is not risk factor for Malassezia sp. infection in HIV/AIDSpatients.

Abstract

Background: Pure neural leprosy (PNL) is an infection by Mycobacterium leprae with clinical manifestation as nerve thickening, sensory nerve impairment, with or without motoric nerve involvement, and without skin lesion. Pure neural leprosy causes progressive degeneration of nerve function. Diagnosis establishement of PNL is difficult. Purpose: To discuss about PNL especifically in aspects of the diagnosis and therapy. Reviews: Gold standard in diagnosis of PNL is histopathological examination from nerve biopsy but this procedure is still difficult for various reasons. Some investigations can be done for PNL such as cytological fine needle aspiration, Mitsuda test, serology test for antibody anti-PGL1, electroneuromyography (ENMG), and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Pure neural leprosy classification is based on findings of abnormality in neurological, immunological, and histopathological. Pure neural leprosy therapy is based on the classification of paucibacillary or multibacillary. Conclusions: The clinical and epidemiological findings plus with the electroneuromyography alteration were finally accepted as sufficient criteria to diagnose PNL. Pure neural leprosy therapy follows WHO regiment in accordance with the paucibacillary or multibacillary classification.Key words: pure neural leprosy, Mycobacterium leprae, nerve biopsy, anti-PGL-1, electroneuromyography.

Abstract

Akne vulgaris adalah gangguan pada unit pilosebaseus yang sering terjadi pada dewasa muda. Propionibacterium acnes adalah bakteri anaerob yang merupakan flora folikel dan berperan penting dalam patogenesis akne. Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (SAP) merupakan bentuk phosphate ester ascorbic acid yang mudah diserap oleh kulit, sehingga sering digunakan dalam produk kosmetik baik sebagai senyawa tunggal maupun campuran. Apabila senyawa ini terbukti mempunyai pengaruh terhadap jumlah koloni P. acnes, maka SAP dapat digunakan sebagai salah satu obat alternatif antiakne. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk mengetahui kadar minimal SAP yang dapat menghambat pertumbuhan P. acnes invitro. Penelitian dilakukan secara eksperimental lab dengan bahan uji SAP yang dibuat dalam konsentrasi 0,5%, 1%, 1,5%, 2%, 2,5 %, 3%, 3,5%, 4%, 4,5 % kadar hambat minimal SAP terhadap P. acnes dengan metode dilusi cair. Penelitian ini dilakukan pengulangan sebanyak 3 kali. P. acnes cair di dapatkan dari Laboratorium Mikrobiologi FK UGM. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kadar hambat minimal SAP terhadap Propionibacterium acnes adalah 2,5 % b/v. Dari penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa SAP memiliki potensi antibakteri terhadap Propionibacterium acnes.

Recently, natural substances have been much developed for antimycotic medicine, such as neem tree that can be found in Indonesia. Oilfrom the neem seed has been proved to have antimycotic effect on non-dermatophytic fungi. The aim of this research was to determine antimycotic effects of neem oil on T. mentagrophytes, E. floccusum and M. gypseum by means of dilution method.This research utilized a simple experimental method. One ml of water and 1 ml of casein yeast glucose were placed into 10 tubes. One ml of pure neem oil was introduced into tube I and the liquids were mixed. Afterwards, 1 ml of solution from tube I was added into tube II. One ml of the solution from tube II was then added into tube III, and so forth up to tube X. Subsequently, 1 ml of dermatophytic suspension (106 cell/ml) was introduced into each tube. The growth of dermatophyte colony was examined on day 5 to 7, after being incubated at room temperature.Results of this research showed that on day 5, T. mentagrophytes began to appear in tube IV (neem oil concentration of 3,12%), while E. floccusum and M. gypseum appeared in tube III (6,25%). On day 7, all colonies began to appear in tube II; therefore, the minimal inhibitory concentration was 12,5%). Neem oil started to have antimycotic effect on T. mentagrophytes, E. floccusum and M. gypseum at a concentration of 6,25%.Akhir-akhir ini banyak dikembangkan bahan alami sebagai antimikotik, antara lain pohon mimba yang banyak terdapat di Indonesia Minyak dari bij i mimba terbukti mempunyai efek antimikotik terhadap berbagai jamur non dermatofita. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui efek antimikotik minyak mimba terhadap T. mentagrophytes, E. floccusum dan M. gypseum dengan metode dilusi.Penelitian menggunakan metode eksperimental sederhana. Pada 10 tabung dimasukkan 1 ml aqua dan lml casein yeast glucose. Pada tabung I ditambahkan 1 ml minyak mimba murni dan dicampur. Pada tabung ke II ditambahkan 1 ml larutan dari tabung I, begitu seterusnya sampai tabung ke X. Selanjutnya pada masing-masing tabung ditambahkan 1 ml suspensi dermatofita 106 sel/ml.

Abstract

The use of technology-based light therapies such as intense pulsed light and heat energy(IPL) provides an alternative therapy for patients with acne. However, clinical evidenceis required to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the IPL. This study aimed to evaluate theefficacy of IPL compared to benzoyl peroxide (BP) as standard therapies in patients withacne vulgaris. The study was conducted with randomized controlled trial parallel designinvolving patients with mild and moderate acne vulgaris. Acne severity was determined bythe method of Combined Acne Severity Classification (CASC). Statistical analysis usingrepeated measurement analysis of variance was conducted to assess the reduction inlesions and number of P. acnes in each group followed by independent t-test to compareof both groups. A p value <0.05 was considered significant. Sixty-two patients withmild and moderate acne vulgaris were enrolled in this study and treated with IPL (32patients) and with BP gel 2.5% (30 patients). Two patients from the IPL were droppedout. All subjects showed improvement in acne lesions. Reduction of the number ofnon-inflammatory lesions at IPL therapy group was not significantly different than theBP gel 2.5% at week 2 (p=0.705) and 4 (p=0.186). Reduction in the numberof inflammatory lesions in the IPL treatment group was not significantly different than BPgel 2.5% at week 2 (p=0.604) but significantly higher at week 4 (p=0.003). Thereduction of P. acnes colonization in the IPL group was significantly higher than BP gel2.5% group at week 2 (p=0.000) and 4 (p=0.000). In conclusion, the efficacy of IPLin the reduction of the number of inflammatory lesions and the P. acnes colonization isbetter than BP on patients with acne vulgaris.

Abstract

Dandruff is a common symptom in adolescence, which possibly due to increasing ofMalassezia sp. colonization, sebum level as well as skin hydration. Wearing hijab ispredicted to increase the humidity and sebum level lead to increase the number ofMalassezia sp. and dandruff severity. A case-control study was conducted on 19 femalewith dandruff who wear hijab and 19 female with dandruff who do not wear hijab, agebetween 18 and 27 years old. The dandruff severity was defined clinically using ascoring system (0-100), only subjects with minimum score of 28 will be included in thisstudy. The sebum and trans epidermal water loss (TEWL) levels were measured withSebumeter and Tewameter from Courage Khazaka. The Malassezia sp. was examinedusing microscopic examination of the squama and culture in the Saboraud medium.There were no significant differences found between hijab and non-hijab groups fordandruff severity. No difference found between two groups for sebum level, Malasseziasp. number microscopically, and Malassezia sp. colonization. Only TEWL level in hijabgroup that was found to be higher than non-hijab group. Wearing hijab does not increasethe dandruff severity, sebum level and colonization number of Malassezia sp. Wearinghijab is found to increase the TEWL level.
