Abstract

Abstract: Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is a chronic inflammation of the middle ear and mastoid cavity marked by tympanic membrane perforation and persistent or recurrent otorrhea for more than two months. This study aimed to determine the characteristics of the safe and unsafe types of CSOM at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou General Hospital in years 2022-2024. This was a retrospective and descriptive study using the total sampling technique. The results obtained 103 patients of safe type (64.4%) and 57 patients of unsafe type (35.6%). The most frequent age group for both types was 20-59 years, with a predominance of females (53.4%) in safe type and males in unsafe type (54.4%). Most of the patients had a middle level of education. The most common symptom in both types was otorrhea (100%) with central perforation was frequently found in safe type of CSOM (45.6%) and attic perforation was most common in unsafe type of CSOM (22.5%). The most frequent treatment was conservative in safe type (51.5%), while conservative and surgery were more frequent in unsafe type (54.4%). In conclusion, the safe type of CSOM was more commonly found. The majority of patients were adults with a middle level of education. Female predominated in safe type, whereas male predominated in unsafe type. The most frequent symptom was otorrhea. Central perforation was most commonly found in safe type and attic perforation in unsafe type. The safe type was treated conservatively, whereas the unsafe type was commonly treated with a combination of conservative and surgery.   Keywords: chronic suppurative otitis media; safe type; unsafe type   Abstrak: Otitis media supuratif kronik (OMSK) adalah inflamasi kronik telinga tengah dan rongga mastoid yang ditandai dengan temuan perforasi membran timpani dan otore secara menetap atau berulang selama lebih dari dua bulan.

Abstract

Abstract: High total cholesterol is one of the major risk factors for atherosclerosis, which can cause thickening of the carotid arterial intima-media layer. Non-invasive carotid intima-media thickness/CIMT measurement serves as an early indicator for detecting vascular structural changes. This study aimed to determine the correlation between total cholesterol levels and CIMT among medical students at Universitas Sam Ratulangi, Manado. This was a quantitative and analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design. Total cholesterol levels were measured using the Autocheck device, while CIMT was assessed using the B-Mode Ultrasonography. The correlation between variables was analyzed using the Spearman test. The results obtained 79 students as subjects selected through purposive sampling. The results showed no significant correlation between total cholesterol level and CIMT (p=0.157; r=–0.161). In conclusion, there was no significant relationship between total cholesterol and carotid intima-media thickness among medical students at Universitas Sam Ratulangi. Future studies are recommended to include subjects with a wider age range and to analyze specific lipid fractions such as low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and triglycerides for a more comprehensive understanding. Keywords: total cholesterol; carotid intima-media thickness; atherosclerosis    Abstrak: Kadar kolesterol total yang tinggi merupakan salah satu faktor risiko utama terjadinya aterosklerosis yang dapat menyebabkan penebalan tunika intima-media arteri karotis (carotid intima-media thickness/CIMT). Pemeriksaan CIMT secara non-invasif dapat digunakan untuk mendeteksi dini perubahan struktur pembuluh darah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui korelasi antara kadar kolesterol total dengan CIMT pada mahasiswa Pendidikan Dokter Universitas Sam Ratulangi Manado. Jenis penelitian ialah kuantitatif dengan metode observasional analitik menggunakan desain potong lintang. Kadar kolesterol total diukur menggunakan alat Autocheck, sedangkan CIMT diukur menggunakan Ultrasonography B-Mode. Analisis hubungan antara kedua variabel dilakukan menggunakan uji korelasi Spearman. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan 79 mahasiswa sebagai subjek penelitian, dipilih dengan metode purposive sampling. Uji korelasi Spearman menunjukkan tidak terdapat korelasi bermakna antara kadar kolesterol total dengan CIMT (p=0,157; r=–0,161). Simpulan penelitian ini ialah tidak terdapat hubungan bermakna antara kadar kolesterol total dan ketebalan tunika intima-media arteri karotis pada mahasiswa Pendidikan Dokter Universitas Sam Ratulangi Manado. Penelitian selanjutnya disarankan untuk melibatkan subjek dengan rentang usia lebih luas serta memasukkan variabel fraksi lipid yang lebih spesifik seperti low-density lippopritein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), dan trigliserida untuk mendapatkan hasil yang lebih komprehensif. Kata kunci: kolesterol total; ketebalan tunika intima-media arteri karotis; aterosklerosis

Abstract

Abstract: Frozen shoulder is characterized by a gradual increase in pain with spontaneous onset and limited range of motion in the glenohumeral joint. Arthroscopic capsular release is a most well-known technique with favorable outcomes for frozen shoulder. This was a single-center retrospective study examining the clinical outcomes of frozen shoulder cases undergoing arthroscopy at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou General Hospital in Manado from February 2025 to October 2025. The results showed that a total of 26 patients were included in this study. At preoperative assessment, pain levels averaged 4.96 ± 0.96 (median 5.00 [5.00–5.75]; range 3–6). Initial range of motion (ROM) showed significant limitations. At follow-up, an improvement in ROM was clearly observed. In conclusion, shoulder arthroscopy in patients with frozen shoulder results in a significant improvement in ROM from the first month and persisted until the third month after surgery indicating that arthroscopic capsular release is an effective surgical treatment option. Keywords: frozen shoulder; shoulder arthroscopy; range of motion    Abstrak: Frozen shoulder ditandai dengan peningkatan nyeri secara bertahap dengan onset spontan dan keterbatasan dalam range of motion (ROM) sendi glenohumeral. Pelepasan kapsul artroskopi merupakan teknik yang paling terkenal dengan hasil yang baik untuk frozen shoulder.

Abstract

Abstract: Traumatic diaphragmatic rupture is an uncommon but potentially life-threatening injury, typically caused by blunt or penetrating thoraco-abdominal trauma. While most cases are identified in the acute phase, delayed presentations may occur years after the initial injury, often with nonspecific symptoms. Recognition requires a high index of suspicion to avoid morbidity associated with late diagnosis. We reported a 33-year-old male with a history of blunt chest trauma sustained eight years prior, who presented with incidental findings of a left diaphragmatic hernia. The patient was asymptomatic aside from decreased breath sounds on auscultation. Chest computed tomography revealed herniation of abdominal viscera, including the stomach, colon, omentum, and spleen, into the left thoracic cavity. Surgical management consisted of left posterolateral thoracotomy with reduction of herniated contents, adhesiolysis via laparotomy, and primary repair of a 10 × 5 cm diaphragmatic defect using interrupted non-absorbable sutures. Postoperatively, the patient recovered well with resolution of lung expansion and no evidence of recurrence on follow-up imaging. In conclusion, delayed diaphragmatic hernia following blunt trauma is a rare clinical entity that may remain silent for years before diagnosis. Thorough history-taking, clinical suspicion, and advanced imaging are critical in identifying such cases. Early surgical intervention remains the cornerstone of management, aiming to restore diaphragmatic integrity, prevent visceral complications, and optimize respiratory function. Keywords: delayed diaphragmatic hernia; blunt trauma; thoracotomy; diaphragmatic rupture

Abstract

Abstract: Female inmates in correctional institutions are vulnerable to psychological distress, including depression, anxiety, and stress. High levels of distress are associated with an increased incidence of early-onset dementia (EOD), which refers to dementia occurring before the age of 65. This study aimed to determine the correlation between distress levels and EOD among female inmates. This was an analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design, conducted at the Manado Class IIB Women’s Correctional Institution from August to November 2025. Sampling was carried out using the stratified random sampling technique, with DASS-21 and MoCA-Ina questionnaires as research instruments. The results obtained a total of 59 female inmates participated in this study. Most inmates had normal distress levels, including normal depression (59,3%), anxiety (49,2%), and stress (59,3%). Based on EOD assessment, the majority (62.7%) showed cognitive impairment. The Spearman’s correlation test indicated a significant relationship between distress levels and early-onset dementia (p=0.000). In conclusion, there is a significant correlation between distress levels and early-onset dementia among female inmates at the Manado Class IIB Women’s Correctional Institution. Keywords: distress levels; early-onset dementia   Abstrak: Narapidana perempuan di lembaga pemasyarakatan rentan mengalami distres, seperti depresi, kecemasan, maupun stres.
