Abstract

Aspiration pneumonia is one of the diseases that is often hidden and under-recognized. This disease contributes to a higher mortality rate compared to other types of pneumonia. This study aims to analyze the pathophysiology, diagnosis and management of aspiration pneumonia. The method used is a literature study by searching for literature published in PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Researchgate with the keywords "aspiration pneumonia", "aspiration pneumonia pathophysiology", "aspiration pneumonia diagnosis and treatment". Aspiration pneumonia can occur due to micro mechanisms or macro mechanisms. Micro mechanisms are mechanisms that cannot be observed while macro mechanisms often occur due to impaired swallowing. Aspiration experienced by pneumonia patients causes inflammation and disruption of the epithelium. The diagnosis of aspiration pneumonia can be established based on clinical symptoms and supporting examinations such as radiology and laboratory examinations. Management that can be carried out on aspiration pneumonia can be done with pharmacological and non-pharmacological management.

Abstract

Hyperthyroidism is a condition characterized by excessive thyroid gland activity, leading to an overproduction of thyroid hormones, namely thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). These hormones play a crucial role in regulating the body's metabolism, and their overproduction can affect various bodily functions. The aim of this article is to provide a comprehensive review of the epidemiology, etiology, clinical manifestations, and management options for hyperthyroidism. The review method involves a thorough analysis of relevant literature, including observational studies, clinical trials, and other related articles, to assess various aspects of the condition. This review identifies that hyperthyroidism is more prevalent in women, particularly with increasing age, with key risk factors including autoimmune diseases, genetic disorders, and environmental exposures. Clinical manifestations vary widely, from metabolic symptoms to systemic disorders, necessitating a proper diagnostic approach. Management strategies include the use of antithyroid medications, radioactive iodine therapy, and thyroid surgery. A deep understanding of hyperthyroidism is critical for effective diagnosis and treatment, as timely and appropriate interventions can improve patient outcomes and minimize long-term complications.
