Abstract

Background: Food allergy prevalence worldwide has been increase. Skin is secondary most often target organ in food allergy reaction. Food allergy affects 35% atopic dermatitis (AD) patients. Diagnosis of food allergy  is still challenge because signs are not specific. Previous researches showed eosinophil and eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) role in food allergy reaction on gastrointestinal tract, but none on dermatitis due to food. Purpose: To evaluate eosinophil and serum ECP in dermatitis due to food. Method: This is a descriptive observational cross sectional study, with dermatitis due to food patients in Dermatovenereology Outpatient Clinic Dr. Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya as subjects. Subjects has been collected trough consecutive sampling during 3 months, then data were analysized descriptively Results: Serum ECP level of dermatitis due to food patients were above normal range in all subjects, with mean level 108.5 µg/L, lowest level 33.011 µg/L and higher level 284.849 µg/L. Mean eosinophil of dermatitis due to food patients just arise above normal limit (0.413µg/L). AD patients were 48.4% among all subjects. Mean serum ECP level of AD patients was higher (121.703 µg/L) than non-AD (96.123 µg/L). Conclusions: Eosinophil and ECP seems have role in dermatitis due to food pathogenesis. Serum ECP examination can be benefits to monitor dermatitis due to food severity.Key words: dermatitis due to food, eosinophil, serum eosinophil cationic protein.

Abstract

Background: Pustular psoriasis and Acute Generalized Exanthematous Pustulosis (AGEP) are grouped under pustular diseases, in which their clinical manifestations are similar. Those diseases can lead to exfoliative dermatitis. Purpose:To evaluate a specific histopathological examination in differentiating Pustular Psoriasis and AGEP. Case: A 55-year-old woman presented with sudden redness and diffused scaly skin with multiple pustules and also fever. She had taken Cefadroxil 2 days before the scales and pustules appeared. Leukocytosis and histopathological examination results from biopsy supported the diagnosis of AGEP. The patient was then hospitalized and received steroid therapy. Within the first week of tapering off, the scales disappeared but the pustules increased. After such clinical findings, the histopathological examination results were revisited and reassessed. Thus, we considered changing the diagnosis to Pustular Psoriasis, and the therapy was switched to Methotrexate. The patient had a better outcome, and the pustules slowly disappeared entirely. Discussion: It is often difficult to differentiate between the pustules in pustular psoriasis and AGEP unless by thorough history-taking and physical examinations. AGEP is characterized by a widespread of pustules with an acute febrile onset; while pustular psoriasis is an acute variant of psoriasis where pustules are spread over erythematous skin and accompanied by high fever and leukocytosis. Conclusion: Histopathological examination is the gold standard for the establishment of pustular psoriasis diagnosis. The histopathological characteristics of pustular psoriasis and AGEP are difficult to differentiate. Therefore, we need detailed history-taking and physical examination to establish the diagnosis.

Abstract

Background: Fractional Carbon Dioxide (CO2) LASER has better efficacy compared to conventional LASER in treating scar tissue such as acne scars, keloids, and striae albae. However, a population with darker skin has a higher risk of side effects, especially in post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and side effects of fractional CO2 LASER in new patients with acne scars, keloids, and striae albae in the Dermatovenereology outpatient clinic. Methods: Retrospective analysis was done on 42 medical records of patients who met the inclusion criterion, which was those who have undergone fractional CO2 LASER treatments. The efficacy and side effects of the therapy were identified and analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 17 program. Result: A total of 42.9% of patients underwent fractional CO2 LASER treatments for acne scars, while 31% and 26.1% of patients received treatments for keloids and striae albae, respectively. There was a statistically significant decrease in the degree of acne scar (2.72 ± 0.83), keloid height (2.2 ± 0.405), and striae width (0.39 ± 0.02). The statistically significant side effects were hyperpigmentation (59.5%), crustae (26.2%), erythema ≥ for 4 days (19%), and new acne (19%). Conclusion: Fractional CO2 LASER was effective for treating scar tissue (acne scars, keloids, and striae albae) with a higher incidence of side effects in population with darker skin and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Abstract

Background: Psoriasis is a skin disease that occurs due to proliferation and differentiation disturbances of the epidermis. This chronic condition often reduces the human quality of life. There have been studies investigating psoriatic patient profiles and treatments, but few are conducted in Surabaya. Hence, those studies cannot fully represent the population demographic in Surabaya. Purpose: To investigate the prevalence of psoriasis vulgaris and the sociodemographic profile of the patients in Dr Soetomo General Academic Hospital. Methods: This was a Retrospective study psoriasis vulgaris patients in January 2016–December 2018. The data were collected by retrieving Electronic Medical Records (EMR) as secondary data. Result: The psoriasis vulgaris prevalence of outpatients was 0.46% and 4.59% in inpatients. Most study subjects were adults aged 18 and above (98.1%), most of the patients were obese (46.3%), the most common provoking factor was focal tooth infection (33.8%) and stress (28.8%), and none reported family history of psoriasis. Conclusion: Some results are similar to other studies conducted in Surabaya, which were the obesity and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM) being strong a factor to psoriasis development. However, the result on psoriasis family history was not in line with other studies.

Abstract

Background: The pathogenesis of Henoch-Schonlein Purpura (HSP), a multisystem organ-involved small vessel vasculitis, is unknown. HSP is more common in youngsters than in adults. HSP is associated with a history of malignancies, medications, vaccinations, and upper respiratory tract infections. Painful purpura, arthritis, stomach discomfort, and renal involvement are symptoms that may be seen in HSP patients. Adult patients had a much higher rate of renal involvement than children. Purpose: To report a case of HSP in an adult with gastrointestinal and renal involvement. Case: A 45-year-old man complained of an arm, leg, and waist rash for two weeks before admission to the hospital. He also has stomach pains, nausea, and vomiting to deal with. His symptoms have just appeared now for the first time. During a renal function test, blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatine serum levels rose. On a urinalysis, proteinuria and microscopic hematuria were found. Leucocytoclastic vasculitis was discovered during the histopathology investigation. HSP diagnosis was based on the ACR and ICC criteria. The patient was given 3x2 tablets of 0.5 mg dexamethasone, 3x2 tablets of cetirizine, 2x10 mg lisinopril, 2x50 mg ranitidine injection, and 2 grams ceftriaxone. Discussion: The clinical symptoms of HSP are used to make the diagnosis. In the vast majority of instances, the treatment is only supportive therapy. Corticosteroid usually are usually used for HSP with multisystem organ involvement to reduce pain severity and faster resolution of renal manifestation. Conclusion: Follow up on renal function is needed to monitor the worsening of renal disease.

Abstract

Background: After a history of exposure to the suspected material and a thorough physical examination, the diagnosis of occupational contact dermatitis (OCD) is commonly suspected. During the initial consultation, essential information involving the above is frequently neglected. Purpose: To evaluate the clinical manifestations of OCD cases in health workers and analyze the factors that influence OCD cases in health workers at the isolation ward of Dr. Soetomo Surabaya Hospital during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: The sample selection was done through purposive sampling. Accessible population that met the inclusion criteria and did not have exclusion criteria were included as research samples. The target population was healthcare workers in the Special Isolation Ward of Dr. Soetomo Hospital Surabaya. The accessible population was healthcare workers who performed hand hygiene activities and used Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in the Special Isolation Ward of Dr. Soetomo Hospital Surabaya. The research subjects were healthcare workers who worked in the Special Isolation Ward. Result: The research results showed a strong and significant correlation between atopic history and the occurrence of contact dermatitis due to poor skin barrier function and decreased tolerance. The study also found that there was no significant correlation between atopic history and the severity level of OCD. There was a significant difference in transepidermal water loss (TEWL) values in the lesion and non-lesion areas, both on the palmar and dorsal aspects of the hand. Moisturizer is an important component in managing hand dermatitis as it can repair and maintain the skin's protective barrier. Conclusion:

Abstract

Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder that typically manifests in childhood and has a diverse etiology. In the United States, the prevalence of AD among adults was 4.9%, while in Japan it was 2.1%. The majority of people with AD have dry skin. Hanifin-Rajka criteria were the first to be established and are frequently used as diagnostic standards in research. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine the Hanifin-Rajka criteria and skin hydration in adult patients with mild-moderate atopic dermatitis at Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital, Surabaya March-May 2022.  Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study included adult patients with mild to moderate AD according to Hanifin-Rajka aged 18-64 years who visited the Dermatology and Venereology Outpatient Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital Surabaya between March and May 2022. Skin hydration was measured using a corneometer on the volar side of the left forearm in the skin area.  Result: Based on the major criteria, all participants had pruritus, typical morphology and distribution, and chronic or chronically recurrent dermatitis. As for the minor criteria, more varied results were obtained, one of which was xerosis, which was experienced by all participants. The skin hydration shows that the mean value for skin hydration was 39.8 ± 12.1. The lowest skin hydration was 21.4 and the highest was 87.4, both found in subjects with mild AD. Conclusion: ..
