Abstract

Background : Lumbar radiculopathy may arise from the compression oflumbosacral nerve roots, leading to pain and disability. We report a caseof chronic lumbar radiculopathy that was successfully treated withperipheral blood stem cells over 24 weeks.Case Presentation : A 62-year-old woman with sharp pain in the back,radiating to both lower legs. Her pain became intense when she waswalking about 200 meters, and has been happening for 2 years. She felland hit her back 7 years ago, and refused to undergo spine surgery in ahospital. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed facet joint hypertrophyand thickening of the ligamentum flavum at L3/L4, L4/L5, and narrowingof the spinal canal. The pretreatment numerical pain rating (NPR) scorewas 7 (out of 10), and the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) for low backpain was 19 or 38% (19/50 x100%). She was administered a 5-day courseof granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF, 5mg/kg/day)subcutaneously, followed by leukapheresis on the fifth day. Circulatingand intravenous infusion of autologous peripheral blood stem cells wereanalyzed using flow cytometry. She also received transforaminal injectionsof 3 ml of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) at each affected lumbarlevel. Peripheral blood CD34+ cells increased fro-treatment, the percentage reductions in pain and ODI were 100% and79.0%, respectively. There were no serious adverse effects from theprocedure.Conclusion: Autologous peripheral blood stem cells are an effectivetreatment for chronic lumbar radiculopathy.Keywords : lumbar radiculopathy, peripheral blood stem cells, spinalstenosis, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, leukapheresis

Abstract

Sudden death due to cardiac arrest and respiratory failure frequently occurs in the community, including in public places and houses of worship. Basic Life Support (BLS) is a simple yet crucial initial action to preserve life before advanced medical care is available. This community service activity was part of the HKBP Gotilon Festival 2025, organized in collaboration between the HKBP Church Jl. Uskup Agung Sugiopranoto Medan, Medical Faculty of Universitas Methodist Indonesia, Medical Faculty of Universitas HKBP Nommensen, and supported by the Indonesian Cardiovascular Specialist Association (PERKI) as experts. The program aimed to improve the knowledge and skills of the congregation of the HKBP Church in performing BLS. The methods included health education on the basic concepts of BLS, demonstration of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and hands-on practice using mannequins. The results showed an increase in participants understanding of emergency response steps as well as their ability to perform CPR correctly. This activity is expected to raise community awareness of the importance of BLS skills and to equip them with the capability to provide initial assistance in emergency situations.

Abstract

The Background: Cholesterol is an essential structural component that forms the cell membrane and the external layer of plasma lipoproteins. The increase of total cholesterol is always accompanied by the increase in LDL cholesterol especially in hypertensive patients. The present study was conducted to find the correlation between total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol of the patients with hypertension Method: It is an observational analytic using cross sectional study in which the data were collected by clinical laboratory examination of Prodia Jl. S.Parman no. 17/223G Medan, North Sumatra Indonesia. The population included all patients with hypertension in which the samples were taken by consecutive sampling method so the total were 19 samples. Results: Majority of samples had normal total cholesterol of 8 persons (42.1%) and the majority of the study samples had high LDL cholesterol of 8 persons (42.1%). Conclusion: There is a significant correlation between total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol. It is indicated by the sig-p value = 0.004 (p <0.05). There is a significant correlation between total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol of the patients with hypertension. It is indicated by the correlation coefficient value r-count = 0.635 which is between 0.6 - 0.79

Abstract

Background : Hypertension is the risk factor for cardiovascular disease and it is related with endothelial dysfunction. The disease is marked by microalbuminuria. Microalbuminuria is related with the damage of endothelial glomerulus and predictor of chronic renal failure. Microalbuminuria increases albuminuria. This will manifest as endothelial damage of the glomerulus. This study is to assess the relation between hypertension and microalbuminuria in people over 40 years of age Methods : in 13 subjects of essential hypertension in Medan, basic data down and their blood pressure and microalbumin checked in Clinical Laboratory of Prodia on Jl. S. Parman No. 17/223 G Medan. This research use cross section study. Shapiro-Wilk test conducted to find out normal distribution data and Pearson correlation test conducted to find out the relation between the variables. The significant score is P<0.05. Results : 6 subjects in this research were in category of A2 (moderate): 3-30 mg/mmol creatinine.7 subject in this study were in category A3(Severe): >30 mg/mmol creatinine. There was correlation (r = 0.898, p = 0.000) between systolic hypertension and microalbuminuria and the correlation between diastolic and microalbuminuria was (r = 0.574, p = 0.040).

Abstract

Background Recurrent Bell’s palsy is a rare condition that can affect the ipsilateral or contralateral to the affected side of the primary attack. There is still no consensus on treatment guidelines for recurrent Bell’s palsy. Therefore, we report a case of idiopathic recurrent contralateral facial palsy treated with autologous peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplantation. Case Presentation A 72-year-old man presented with the sudden onset of right facial weakness, which was contralateral to the affected side of the first episode of facial palsy. The weakness had progressed with difficulty in closing the right eye, drooling the water from the right side of the mouth, and chewing impairment which was consistent with House Brackmann grade IV or moderately severe facial nerve grading system. He had exposure to cold stimulation, and a history of hypertension. He was given G-CSF 10 ug/kg/day for 5 days to mobilize stem cells, followed by apheresis on the 5th day. He did not receive acupuncture treatment. He had a complete recovery in 3 weeks with House Brackmann grade I or normal function of facial nerve. Conclusion Peripheral blood stem cell transplantation had a beneficial effect on the complete recovery of this recurrent Bell’s palsy and provides a treatment strategy in patients with unilateral facial palsy.

Abstract

Background: The global increase in aging population poses major public health challenges. Green tea, especially its bioactive compound epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), has shown promising effects on healthspan and age-related diseases. Recent studies have explored its potential role in epigenetic regulation and antiaging mechanisms. Discussion: Green tea is rich in polyphenols, especially catechins like EGCG, which act as powerful antioxidants. EGCG modulates epigenetic mechanisms by inhibiting histone deacetylases (HDAC), altering DNA methylation, and regulating non-coding RNAs. These modifications support the expression of genes involved in cellular protection, stress resistance, and longevity. In addition to systemic benefits, green tea also demonstrates topical antiaging effects by reducing oxidative stress and improving collagen synthesis in the skin. Experimental models reveal EGCG’s capacity to delay aging through activation of key signaling pathways (e.g., AMPK, SIRT1, FOXO) and modulation of inflammatory and apoptotic mediators. Clinical studies further confirm that consistent green tea intake is associated with reduced epigenetic age and improved biological markers of aging Conclusion: Green tea, through its epigenetic influence and antioxidant properties, presents itself as a natural and effective antiaging agent. Regular consumption may contribute to the prevention of age- related diseases and the promotion of healthy aging.
