Abstract

The smoking rate continues to rise yearly, with significant increasesobserved among men across children, adolescents, and adults. Alcoholconsumption caused 2.6 million deaths in 2019, with 2 million casesamong men and 0.6 million among women. This study aimed to evaluatethe influence of smoking status and alcohol consumption on cognitivefunction. Cognitive impairments (difficulties in thinking andunderstanding) are increasing health concerns, particularly in developingcountries. This research was an analytic observational design with across-sectional approach, utilizing secondary data from 3,000 samplescovering various health and lifestyle factors. The synthetic dataset mimicsreal-world conditions, offering a controlled environment to examineassociations and minimize confounding biases—statistical analysis to assess the relationship and differences in cognitive function based onsmoking status and alcohol consumption. The results showed a significantcorrelation between smoking habits and cognitive function, with nonsmokers exhibiting better cognitive performance compared to active andformer smokers. Alcohol consumption did not demonstrate significant differences in cognitive function, suggesting that factors such as consumption patterns and quantity may have a more substantial impact.Public health campaigns should leverage these insights to promotesmoking cessation and address broader lifestyle factors influencingcognitive function.

Abstract

Introduction: Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a genetic, non-familial skeletal disorder, where in medullary bone is replaced by fibro-osseus tissue. Ninety percent of FD instances involve the craniofacial region, which usually involves one or more bones. The ethmoid, sphenoid, frontal, maxillary, and temporal bones are the most affected, but the maxilla is most affected. Misdiagnosis and inappropriate diversity in investigations and therapies are frequently caused by the disease’s rarity and varying presentation to other specialties. This study aims to analyze the signs, symptoms, and laboratory-radiology examinations of suspected FD patients at Dr. Kariadi General Hospital Semarang so that it can increase the sensitivity of medical personnel in establishing this diagnosis based on the symptoms and signs complained of by the patient.Case Presentation: A case series study assessing three patients diagnosed with FD of the maxillae between January and December 2021 at Dr. Kariadi General Hospital, Semarang. The study found 3 patients diagnosed with FD of the maxillae consisting of 2 males and 1 female. The initial complaints reported in all patients were progressive facial pain, thick sensation in the cheek area, and asymmetrical facial shape due to abnormal protrusions. Physical examination found an increase in facial volume with a hard consistency. CT scan evaluation obtained a sclerotic image with ground glass opacity in two patients and hyperostosis in one patient. Surgery with the Weber Ferguson technique was undergone by two patients, while one patient underwent the Weber Ferguson Technique + Zoledronic Acid for 6 cycles. Both patients who underwent Weber Ferguson technique surgery experienced recurrence related to symptoms in the form of pain and increased volume in the facial area within 2–4 weeks after surgery.Conclusions: Patients with complaints of progressive pain and asymmetrical shape in the facial area and physical examination found an increase in facial volume with hard consistency should be able to increase the suspicion of medical personnel regarding the diagnosis of FD. Further radiological examination with tissue histopathology should be performed to rule out or confirm the diagnosis of FD.

Abstract

Tingginya angka kasus kanker serviks di kalangan wanita, yang dapat dicegah melalui vaksinasi HPV (Human Papillomavirus). Sayangnya, kesadaran tentang pentingnya vaksin HPV masih rendah, terutama di kalangan wanita muda. Oleh karena itu, talkshow bertema “Urgensi Vaksin HPV bagi Kesehatan Wanita” ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pemahaman dan kesadaran masyarakat, khususnya wanita, mengenai manfaat vaksin HPV sebagai langkah pencegahan kanker serviks. Talkshow ini dilakukan secara interaktif dengan menghadirkan para ahli kesehatan, termasuk dokter spesialis kandungan dan ahli onkologi, yang menyampaikan informasi tentang HPV, kanker serviks, serta manfaat dan keamanan vaksinasi. Setelah presentasi, sesi diskusi dan tanya jawab diadakan agar peserta dapat bertanya lebih mendalam, disertai pembagian brosur dan panduan digital sebagai materi tambahan. Hasil dari kegiatan ini menunjukkan peningkatan pemahaman dan kesadaran peserta mengenai pentingnya vaksin HPV, dengan sekitar 90% peserta merasa lebih paham dan termotivasi untuk melakukan vaksinasi setelah mendapatkan informasi yang disampaikan. Beberapa peserta bahkan berencana menyebarluaskan informasi ini kepada orang terdekat, memperluas dampak edukasi. Kesimpulannya, Bincang Medika 2023 berhasil memberikan pemahaman mendalam mengenai pentingnya vaksinasi HPV untuk kesehatan wanita dan menjadi langkah awal yang efektif dalam meningkatkan kesadaran publik untuk pencegahan kanker serviks. Kegiatan ini diharapkan dapat dilaksanakan secara berkelanjutan agar semakin banyak wanita memahami pentingnya vaksinasi HPV
