Abstract

There is strong evidence indicating that excess adiposity in obesity impacts immune function and host defence. However, almost no known mechanism of how the immune and host defence are affected by the low-grade inflammatory response of the obese has been established. The significance of altered immune response in obesity was presumed to be an independent risk factor for increased morbidity and mortality following the influenza pandemic back in 2009. Similarly, obesity is linked with a higher risk of severity and a worse clinical outcome of severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2) infection.This case reports a complete recovery of a severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection despite having morbid obesity aggravated by metabolic syndrome.

Abstract

A 37 y.o. Asian male presented with frequent hypoglycaemia in both fasting and post-prandial state. He had elevated blood insulin levels during the hypoglycaemic episodes with normal pancreatic morphology and no extra-pancreatic tumor. Through systematic symptom assessment and the use of simple laboratory examination, non-insulinoma pancreatogenous hypoglycaemia syndrome presented as the most likely diagnosis. Conclusive aetiological diagnosis could not be reached due to the limited availability of diagnostic modalities. Nevertheless, modest symptom control and frequency reduction of hypoglycaemia were achieved with empirical dietary modification and α-glucosidase inhibitor treatment.

Abstract

Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) and now represents a significant global health concern, with an estimated 10 million people infected with TB in 2022, equivalent to 133 incident cases per 100,000 population. Indonesia faces a substantial burden. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates 969,000 TB cases, with 717,941 confirmed cases reported. Extrapulmonary TB, contributing to 15% of TB cases, affects various areas such as bones, pleura, lymph nodes, genitourinary system, peritoneum, and meninges. Tuberculous epididymo-orchitis, a rare type of extrapulmonary TB, is characterized by MTB infection in the epididymis or testis. Case: A 31-year-old male was presented to the Emergency Department of Budi Rahayu General Hospital, Pekalongan, with a fever, bitter taste, body aches, and cough. Initially hospitalized for five days and discharged upon improvement of symptoms, the patient returned with fatigue, cough, and black stools. After being admitted under internist and pulmonary specialist care due to a suspected left lung TB apical lesion, biomolecular testing (GeneXpert) was performed. Consultation with a urologist revealed scrotal pain, prompting further tests including urine acid-fast bacilli (AFB) examination, testicular ultrasound, and aspiration culture. The patient was diagnosed with TB epididymo-orchitis and treated with a Category 1 TB regimen. Conclusion: TB epididymo-orchitis is a rare case requiring thorough diagnostic evaluation encompassing anamnesis, physical examination, and diagnostic procedures. Early detection and appropriate management are vital in combating this challenging disease.
