Abstract

Background: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (KNF) is a malignant tumor that grows in the Rossenmuller Fossa area and at the top of the nasopharynx. KNF is a tumor that originates from epithelial cells that cover the surface of the nasopharynx. Worldwide, the incidence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is rare, with less than 1 case per 100,000 population. However, in certain parts of the world, such as Indonesia, there are about 5-10 cases per 100,000 population. Therefore, this study aimed to correlate the knowledge of nasopharyngeal swab with the knowledge of nasopharyngeal cancer among university students in Mataram. Methods: This study is an analytic observational study with a cross sectional approach. The population in this study were students at the Faculty of Medicine, Mataram University. Results: In this study, the results for the greatest knowledge score were sufficient knowledge (score 12-15) of 107 people (53.5%), followed by poor knowledge (score <12) as many as 88 people (44%), and for good knowledge (score> 15) as many as 5 people (2.5%). The results of the spaerman test obtained a Sig. (2-tailed) of 0.003 (P < 0.005), and also obtained the correlation coefficient value for the variable knowledge of nasopharyngeal swabs is 0.206. Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between knowledge about nasopharyngeal swabs and knowledge about nasopharyngeal cancer in university students in Mataram.

Abstract

Guillain-Barré Syndrome or GBS is one of the emergency conditions of neurology. Currently, its incidence is relatively low and rare, with a rate of 0.81 to 1.89 of 100,000 people in a year. Guillain-Barré Syndrome or GBS, also known as acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy, is a collection of clinical symptoms caused by an acute inflammatory process that attacks the nervous system. The dominant pathogen that causes Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) is Campylobacter jejuni (C. jejuni). Infection with the pathogen Campylobacter jejuni can trigger an immune and humoral autoimmune response that results in nerve dysfunction and the emergence of GBS symptoms. The clinical course of GBS can be divided into several phases, including the progressive phase, plateau phase, and recovery phase. In cases of GBS, it is possible that these factors are involved in the onset of the disease. Some risk factors associated with GBS include viral infections such as Zika virus, influenza virus, and measles-rubella virus. The diagnosis of GBS includes the main symptoms, additional symptoms, cerebrospinal fluid examination, electrophysiological tests, and the exclusion of other diagnoses. The main symptoms include progressive weakness in the extremities accompanied by or without ataxia and areflexia or hyporeflexia in the tendons. The management that can be done includes supportive therapy through the respiratory system. Another treatment option is immunotherapy, with the goal of accelerating disease recovery and reducing the severity of GBS through the immune system.
