Abstract

Acute respiratory tract infections (ARI), including pharyngitis and laryngitis, remain a highly prevalent disease in Indonesia and even globally. These respiratory infections are caused by the bacterium Streptococcus pyogenes, also known as Streptococcus beta hemolyticus group A. The purpose of this literature review was to identify acute respiratory tract infections (pharyngitis and laryngitis). Pharyngitis is more common in children and adolescents, while laryngitis is more common in infants and children. The review concluded that Streptococcus pyogenes is the main cause of bacterial pharyngitis, while laryngitis is an inflammation of the larynx that can be caused by a variety of factors, including bacterial or viral infections as well as non-infectious factors like irritation or trauma. In conclusion, a thorough understanding of acute pharyngitis and laryngitis, including causative factors, clinical manifestations, management, and prevention, is essential for both medical personnel and the general public in an effort to reduce the burden of these diseases and improve overall upper respiratory health.

Abstract

Leukemia is a cancer that originates from cells that initially develop into blood cells. Leukemia can be classified as acute or chronic, depending on how quickly the disease appears and how it progresses in the body. This literature review aims to determine the treatment for patients with AML depending on the subtype. This literature review used journal review methods and data searches through various sources. The results of the literature study found that Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is divided into six subtypes. AML is caused by clonal transformation of hematopoietic cells through chromosomal abnormalities and gene mutations, with risk factors including exposure to radiation, benzene, smoking, chemotherapy therapy, the development of chronic myeloid neoplasms, aging, and predisposing diseases. Diagnosis of AML involves peripheral blood and bone marrow analysis, immunophenotyping, cytogenetics, molecular cytogenetics, and imaging to detect the presence and characteristics of leukemic cells. Treatment of AML includes induction therapy, consolidation therapy, and response monitoring, with special considerations for the selection of chemotherapy regimens, stem cell transplantation, and transfusion support to manage associated complications. In conclusion, Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is a condition in which myeloblasts undergo excessive proliferation and fail to differentiate into granulocytes. This condition causes the bone marrow to fill with myeloblasts.
