Abstract

Background: Brainstem stroke syndrome accounts for 10-15% of all types of strokes, which may result in relatively rare neuroophthalmological manifestations. The aim of this case report is to report findings of one and a half syndrome (OAHS) and internuclear ophthalmoplegia in a patient with brainstem stroke. Case presentation: First case, female, 56 years old, came with sudden weakness on the right side of the body. One and a half syndrome was found, namely when asked to glance to the left, conjugate gaze palsy was obtained horizontally, and when asked to glance to the right, there was adduction inability of the left eye (ipsilateral). Right eye abduction was normal with present nystagmus. Paresis of right central CN. VII, XII was present, along with hemiparesis dextra (contralateral). Head CT scan shows hemorrhage in pons and intraventricular. Second case, female, 65 years old, came with a protruding mouth, vertigo, and sudden double vision Internuclear ophthalmoplegia was present, namely an adduction inability of the left eye (ipsilateral) when asked to glance to the right. Right eye abduction was normal with present nystagmus. no abnormalities were seen in the primary position and when asked to glance to the left. Paresis of right peripheral CN. VII, hemiparesis and right (contralateral) hemihypesthesia was present. MRI shows multiple chronic infarcts as well as subacute infarcts in bilateral parietal and pons. Conclusion: Clinical knowledge is necessary for topic determination, rehabilitation process and evaluation.

Abstract

Background: Stunting, a prevalent form of chronic malnutrition, presents a significant public health challenge globally, particularly in low-income nations like Indonesia. This study investigates the prevalence and interaction of stunting and upper respiratory infections (URIs) among toddlers aged 12-59 months in Kronjo Health Center, a rural health center in West Java. Methods: Employing a cross-sectional design with total sampling, data were collected from October to November 2023. Height measurements were interpreted according to WHO child growth standards, and statistical analysis was performed using the Pearson chi-square 2x2 test. Results: The study involved 146 toddlers, with the majority being female (52.7%) and aged 12-23 months (34.9%). Most mothers had a high school education (39.7%), practiced breastfeeding (67.8%), and participated in basic pediatric immunization programs (61%). Additionally, 15 toddlers (10.3%) had a history of low birth weight, and a significant proportion were exposed to household smoking (n = 122; 83.6%) and lived in crowded households with six or more family members (n = 45; 30.8%). The study revealed a stunting prevalence of 46.6% and a URI prevalence of 63% among toddlers aged 12-59 months in Kronjo Health Center. Statistical analysis indicated a significant association between stunting and URIs (p-value = 0.035). Conclusion: This study highlights a significant association between stunting and URI among toddlers aged 12-59 months in Kronjo Health Center, emphasizing the importance of addressing both conditions in rural health settings.
