Abstract

Hypothyroidism is a condition characterized by decreased thyroid hormone production due to impaired thyroid or hypothalamic-pituitary gland function. Hypothyroidism is more common in women due to iodine deficiency. This condition can also be caused by autoimmune disorders. Symptoms of hypothyroidism vary, from mild, with few or no symptoms, to severe. Most symptoms are variable, vague, and delayed in onset. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the diagnosis and management of hypothyroidism complicated by myxedema coma. The writing method used in this literature review is references from various Indonesian and English-language literature. The literature search was conducted during November 2024, with 10 articles obtained. The review results showed that severe and uncontrolled hypothyroidism can lead to myxedema coma. Myxedema coma is a condition characterized by decreased consciousness accompanied by generalized edema. This condition frequently associated with hypothermia and hyponatremia. Myxedema coma can be diagnosed using a scoring system. Therefore, an understanding of how to diagnose and properly manage hypothyroidism with complications of myxedema coma is needed for early detection so as not to worsen the patient's prognosis.

Abstract

Sunlight contains ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Low awareness of the importance of skin protection, as well as the perception that sunscreen use is incompatible with masculine image, is due to a lack of education. This paper aims to discuss the importance of sunscreen use as a preventive measure in maintaining skin health, especially in areas with high UV exposure such as NTB. The results of a literature study found that ultraviolet light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum originating from the sun. UVA, UVB, and UVC rays are the three types of these rays that may be distinguished by their wavelength. One of the major risk factors for developing skin cancer is exposure to UVA and UVB radiation. Sunscreen is one way to chemically protect the skin from the sun. Active ingredients in sunscreen have the ability to absorb, disperse, and reflect sunlight to provide the best possible protection for the skin. The chemical structure known as aromatic molecules conjugated with carbonyl groups is the mechanism of action of chemical sunscreens. The degree of hyperpigmentation is greatly impacted by proper sunscreen use. In conclusion, the public should be taught about the importance of wearing sunscreen in order to avoid the acute and long-term consequences of excessive UV exposure.

Abstract

Alga merah termasuk salah satu jenis tumbuhan tingkat rendah yang memilki banyak kandungan vitamin dan mineral. Asam lemak omega-3 dan omega-6 dapat ditemukan dalam alga merah dan penting untuk kesehatan otak dan jantung. Penyakit jantung menjadi penyebab kematian utama di dunia dan dipicu oleh banyak faktor salah satunya faktor nutrisi yang tidak sehat dan pola makan. Penulisan ini mengkaji bagaimana peran Omega-3 yang terkandung dalam alga merah untuk kesehatan jantung. Metode yang digunakan adalah Literature review dari berbagai sumber dengan kata kunci “Cardiovascular disease”, “Red Algae”, “Rhodophyta”, “Omega-3”. Hasil yang diperoleh adalah beberapa spesies alga merah yang ditemukan di Indonesia mengandung Asam Eikosapentaenoat (EPA). Omega-3 diketahui memiiki manfaat bagi jantung dengan efek antiinflamasi, antiaritmia, antitrombotik, dan memelihara fungsi endotel. Uji klinis membuktikan omega-3 signifikan mengurangi kejadian penyakit jantung sebesar 25% dan direkomendasikan untuk mengonsumsi DHA dan EPA dalam kisaran 300-600 mg per hari untuk mencegah penyakit jantung

Abstract

Fraktur merupakan kondisi medis akibat patahnya tulang akibat trauma seperti kecelakaan lalu lintas, jatuh, atau cedera olahraga. Indonesia termasuk negara dengan jumlah kasus fraktur tertinggi di Asia Tenggara. Penanganan fraktur yang tidak tepat dapat menimbulkan komplikasi serius. Salah satu metode tatalaksana definitif yang digunakan adalah traksi skeletal, yakni teknik invasif yang menggunakan pin yang ditanamkan langsung ke tulang untuk menciptakan gaya tarik yang stabil. Tulisan ini bertujuan memberikan pemahaman menyeluruh mengenai indikasi, teknik, dan peran traksi skeletal dalam manajemen fraktur. Metode penulisan berbentuk tinjauan pustaka berdasarkan artikel jurnal nasional dan internasional yang relevan. Hasil pembahasan menunjukkan bahwa skeletal traksi memiliki banyak manfaat seperti stabilisasi fraktur, mengurangi nyeri akibat spasme otot, hingga memfasilitasi tindakan pembedahan lebih lanjut. Tindakan ini memerlukan teknik yang tepat dan perawatan khusus untuk mencegah komplikasi seperti infeksi dan kerusakan neurovaskular. Oleh karena itu, pemahaman terhadap teknik pemasangan, indikasi, kontraindikasi, dan pelepasan sangat penting untuk meningkatkan hasil klinis pasien dengan fraktur.

Abstract

Sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) is a neurological complication often found on sepsis patients and is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. It arises from systemic inflammation, blood-brain barrier disruption, microglial and astrocytic activation, and oxidative stress which collectively contribute to neuronal injury and long-term cognitive impairment. This literature review aims to analyze the impact of coma duration on functional outcomes at discharge and long-term survival among patients with SAE. Literatures were searched through PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar with a 10-year publication limit and selected based on topic relevance, study design, and data completeness and were analyzed using a narrative synthesis approach. Findings indicate that prolonged coma duration is strongly associated with poor neurological recovery, increased risk of disability, and early mortality. Conversely, early recovery of consciousness tends to correlate with better short-term functional outcomes. However, among survivors discharged from intensive care, coma duration doesn’t consistently predict long-term survival, although cognitive and quality of life impairments often persist. In conclusion, coma duration serves as an important prognostic factor in SAE, but it should be interpreted alongside other factors such as age, comorbidity, and the severity of sepsis itself. The scientific implications highlight the need for , infection control, and rehabilitative strategies to shorten periods of altered consciousness and improve neurological outcomes in the long term.
