Abstract

Cholangiocarcinoma is a disease caused by the differentiation of cells in the bile epithelium or liver parenchyma into malignant cells called cholangiocytes. This literature review presents the current risk factors, diagnostic tools, and treatment choices of cholangiocarcinoma. Publication about the current risk factors, diagnostic tools, and treatment choices of cholangiocarcinoma were collected from the Pubmed database until August 25, 2022. The keywords of the research were “cholangiocarcinoma”, “risk factor”, “diagnostic”, and “treatment”. Cholangiocarcinoma has many risk factors, from choledochal cysts, and primary sclerosing cholangitis, to asbestos exposure. The diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma is difficult and requires the combined interpretation of different diagnostic modalities. Examinations that can be done for the diagnosis and staging of cholangiocarcinoma are MRI and CT. However, if the diagnosis remains uncertain, endoscopic examination and tissue sampling may be performed. After the diagnosis, there are several treatments, namely surgical therapy (surgical excision of bile duct tumors), endoscopic therapy (endoscopic biliary dilatation), radiological therapy (percutaneous transhepatic palliative biliary dilatation), chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and photodynamic therapy.

Abstract

Chikungunya based on the literature is classified as one of the many diseases that become a differential diagnosis of acute undifferentiated fever. Finally, patients with this condition are treated with empirical therapy so that often the management does not meet the standards / undertreatment. In an effort to reduce morbidity and improve the quality of care with limited modalities, history taking and physical examination as well as effective risk factor analysis are necessary in the current situation in Indonesia. Therefore, the authors raise this topic to help improve diagnostic acuity and the importance of the role of laboratory modalities in the diagnosis of chikungunya in Indonesia. Google Scholar by using the search keywords "Chikungunya" and "In Indonesia" with a time span of 2013-2023. Through a search that has been carried out using these 2 keywords, we get 10,300 publications. Based on the inclusion and exclusion results, 30 publications were obtained that could be used in compiling our literature review. Indonesia is an archipelago and is one of the countries in the world with a tropical climate, so it is certainly an ideal place for various tropical infectious diseases such as chikungunya. Although Indonesia has suppressed chikungunya incidence, Indonesia still facing some problem on diagnostic and case reporting system. This situation effect the performance of incidence validity and quality of treatment.  Chikungunya virus infection in Indonesia still requires diagnostic development efforts to anticipate future outbreaks.

Abstract

The use of pineapple fruit extract as an immunostimulant in aquaculture has become the focus of significant research in efforts to improve the immune systems of aquatic organisms, especially farmed fish. Pineapple fruit extract, which contains bromelain, has attracted attention as a potential natural solution to improve the immune response of fish against pathogens and disease. The main aim of this review is to evaluate the extent to which the use of pineapple as an immunostimulant is effective in improving the immune system of fish or other aquatic organisms in an aquaculture context. This article uses literature study methods from several national, accredited national journals and reputable international journals. Literature study is the process of searching, collecting and analyzing various sources of information relevant to a particular topic. Pineapple extract contains bromelain, which has immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties. It can improve the fish's immune response and reduce inflammation, helping to improve fish health. The use of pineapple fruit extract can reduce dependence on antibiotics in the treatment of sick fish, which is in line with global efforts to overcome antibiotic resistance and environmental impacts. With the right efforts, the use of pineapple fruit extract as an immunostimulant in aquaculture has the potential to increase the productivity and sustainability of the aquaculture industry, as well as reduce dependence on antibiotics and synthetic chemicals. Therefore, further research and development of best practices in the use of pineapple fruit extract in aquaculture are necessary steps to realize its potential as a more environmentally friendly and sustainable alternative.

Abstract

Hepatocellular carcinoma, also known as hepatocarcinoma, is the most frequent type of primary liver cancer and the world's second leading cause of death, with a mortality rate of 700.000 per year. Due to the difficulty in diagnosing hepatocarcinoma because there are no obvious symptoms, the survival rate of hepatocarcinoma patients is still very low, particularly in Southeast Asian countries. Hepatocarcinoma is still a major health issue in Indonesia, with a very low median survival rate. The number of risk factors that cause hepatocarcinoma is what causes differences in hepatocarcinoma incidence across countries. This literature review aims to determine risk factors and to confirm the diagnosis of hepatocarcinoma. This literature review was conducted using the keywords “Hepatocellular Carcinoma AND risk factors AND diagnosis” from PubMed, Google Scholar, and non-peer-reviewed literature. This article uses 16 articles that were used as references in its preparation. In conclusion, hepatitis B and C virus, liver cirrhosis, fatty liver disease, diabetes, alcohol use, aflatoxin exposure, aristolochic acid exposure, smoking, and HIV are risk factors for hepatocarcinoma. On all individuals with hepatocarcinoma risk factors, screening procedures with US and AFP were carried out. An abdominal CT scan or an MRI with contrast can both be used to provide a firm diagnosis of hepatocarcinoma. A liver biopsy is used to confirm the diagnosis of space-occupying lesions that lack typical imaging characteristics.

Abstract

Body dissatisfaction and social media addiction are two psychological problems that are often experienced by teenagers. Body dissatisfaction is a psychological concept that refers to an individual's negative feelings towards his body. Several studies have shown that the higher level of body dissatisfaction, the higher the tendency of social media addiction in adolescents. Individuals tend to compare themselves with others through their appearance on social media, thereby reducing their appreciation of their own body shape and becoming more insecure. These conditions can affect a person's overall mental and physical health. This literature review aims to examine the relationship between body dissatisfaction and social media addiction among teenagers in Indonesia. This literature review was conducted using the keywords “body dissatisfaction AND social media addiction AND teenagers”. This article uses 28 articles that were used as references in its preparation. In conclusion, based on research conducted in various countries, including Indonesia, there is a significant relationship between body dissatisfaction and social media addiction among teenagers. Teenagers who are dissatisfied with their physical appearance tend to use social media more frequently, and excessive use of social media can increase the risk of both body dissatisfaction and social media addiction.

Abstract

Malrotation is a congenital abnormal position of the intestine within the peritoneal cavity and usually involves the small intestine and large intestine. Intestinal malrotation occurs at a rate of 1 in 500 live births. Male predominance was present in neonates with a male-to-female ratio of 2:1. Up to 40% of patients with malrotation present within the first week of life, 50% up to one month of age and 75% by one year of age. Purpose: To determine the etiology and risk factors for gastrointestinal tract malrotation. Conclusion: Malrotation is a congenital abnormal position of the intestine within the peritoneal cavity and usually involves the small intestine and large intestine. Gastrointestinal (GI) malrotation, sometimes referred to as incomplete rotation or non- rotation of the bowel, is any deviation from the physiological rotation and/or fixation of the GI tract during embryonic development. During the development of the GI tract, the 3 parts of the tract, namely the foregut, middle, and hindgut, usually protrude from the abdominal cavity and undergo a counterclockwise rotation of 270 degrees. Basically, rotational and fixation anomalies are caused by failure of various embryological stages. Clinical manifestations are divided into 4, namely Midgu Volvulus, Intestinal Obstruction, Gasroschisis, and Omphalocele. The main management of intestinal malrotation is a surgical procedure. Other therapies are given to stabilize the patient and are supportive.

Abstract

Liver disease is still a concern in world health and liver cirrhosis is the eleventh leading cause of death in the world. Cirrhosis caused 1.32 million deaths in 2017. Liver cirrhosis is a fibrosis or nodule formation in the liver. The study was conducted on databases, such as PubMed, google scholar and gray literature. With inclusion criteria, that are free full text publications published in 2015-2022 and having relevant discussions. Fibrosis in cirrhosis of liver begins with the activation of Stellate and Kupffer cells, damaged hepatocytes and activated platelets are also invoved. Inflammatory cells will appear as a result of the damage and cause fibrosis due to the secretion of cytokines. In addition, there are pathological features, namely nodule regeneration and loss of normal lobular architecture within the nodule. The patient's diagnosis start from anamnesis to gather information related to risk factors, physical examination, laboratory tests, imaging, liver biopsy if necessary. Management can be carried out according from etiology of the cause of liver cirrhosis. Complications of liver cirrhosis are portal hypertension, ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, hepatocellular carcinoma, hyponatremia, and acute kidney injury. Liver cirrhosis is a liver fibrosis caused by Stellate, Kupffer cells, damaged hepatocytes, and activated platelets. Inflammatory cells cause fibrosis, leading to regenerating nodules and decreased blood flow. Diagnosis involves anamnesis, physical examination, laboratory tests, imaging, and liver biopsy if needed. Treatment is based on the etiology of liver cirrhosis, with complications including portal hypertension, ascites, and hepatic encephalopathy.
