Abstract

Stroke is cerebrovascular disease, causing deterioration of brain function as a result of cerebral blood flow disruption. Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the world and is considered an important cause of long-term disability and cognitive impairment. Risk factors of stroke are further divided into unmodifiable risk factors and modifiable risk factors, with one of the most common modifiable risk factors of stroke, is cigarette smoking. Besides being one of the risk factors that cause stroke, cigarette smoking is believed to have a role in cognitive impairment. This study aims to obtain information regarding the association between cigarette smoking and cognitive function in stroke patients of Siloam Lippo Karawaci Hospital. This research is an unpaired comparative analytical study with a cross-sectional design. Data sampling was taken by consecutive sampling on 56 stroke patients of Siloam Lippo Karawaci Hospital. Cognitive function was made based on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment version Indonesia (MoCA-INA). All data were analyzed by Chi-Square test using SPSS version 25 and the result is considered significant if the p-value < 0,05. From the result of this study. There is a significant association between cigarette smoking and cognitive function (p-value 0,004 and OR 5,343).

Abstract

A primary headache is the most common neurological complaint and is experienced by almost everyone throughout life.  The most common type of primary headache is TTH (Tension-Type Headache) and Migraine. Quality of sleep is associated with life satisfaction and data shows that one-third of adults are affected by poor sleep. Many studies have mentioned that there is a relationship between quality of sleep and primary headache, but no study has ever been conducted in Siloam Hospital Karawaci. We did a case-control study in Siloam Hospital Karawaci using purposive sampling, with a total of 50 patients as the subjects. Data were collected using the PSQI questionnaire and DASS 42 between January 2019 - March 2019. It was found that there was a significant relationship between sleep quality and primary headache (p= <0,001).

Abstract

Background: The main feature of COVID-19 is symptoms of respiratory system disorder, however, there has been an increase in reports of neurological symptoms that appear in COVID-19 patients. Several previous studies have linked SARS-CoV-2 with nervous system damage. Research studying neurological complaints in  confirmed COVID-19 patients in Indonesia is still lackingAim: To identify neurological, laboratory, and imaging findings in COVID-19 patients with neurological symptoms.Methods: This study was a cross-sectional observational study conducted at Siloam Hospitals Mampang, a COVID-19 referral hospital in South Jakarta. We analyzed medical records of confirmed COVID-19 patients during the period of April - July 2020. The data collected included demographic data, comorbidities, neurological manifestations, laboratory examinations, and neuroimaging.Results: There were 22 confirmed COVID-19 patients with neurological complaints referred to a neurologist. The mean age of patients was 60.4 (SD 15.8) years. The most common neurological complaints were altered mental status (50%), hemiparesis (27.3%), and tremors (22.7%). More than half of the patients (81.8%) had a comorbid condition or past history related to neurological symptoms. Laboratory examination results showed increased NLR (neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio) (50%), anemia (45.5%), and leukocytosis (40.1%). The most common neuroimaging feature was infarct (50%) in the brain CT scan.Conclusion: The neurological complaints in COVID-19 patients are mostly associated with exacerbation of pre-existing comorbidities as a result of the severe inflammatory process triggered by COVID-19. Further research is needed to establish the mechanism of nervous system dysfunction in COVID-19.

Abstract

Vaginal discharge or fluor albus is a problem that is often found in women. Daily use of panty liner is a predisposing factor of pathological/abnormal vaginal discharge. This paper reviews the correlation between the use of panty liner and vaginal discharge. The aims of this study were to analyze the effect of daily panty liner use as a risk factor of vaginal discharge. This research is done by using the cross-sectional method. The study population is students of the University of Pelita Harapan in the Faculty of  Nursery. Sample size calculation was done using the categorical comparative analytical formula and a result of 46 samples were obtained for each population. A questionnaire was used in this research. Statistical analysis is done by using the SPSS 22.0 program with the Chi-Square method. Bivariate analysis on 92 respondents revealed that there is a significant association between the usage of a panty liner and abnormal vaginal discharge (p-value <0.05). Based on bivariate analysis panty liner material is not related to abnormal vaginal discharge (p-value >0.05).

Abstract

Introduction: Orbital complications secondary to acute rhinosinusitis can cause permanent vision loss and death if not treated promptly and appropriately. The prevalence of orbital complications due to rhinosinusitis is more common in children than adults, occurring in 3-4% of children with acute rhinosinusitis. Lamina papyracea in children has many dehiscences, the nasal cavity tends to be narrower and the mucosa is softer than in adults, therefore causing the spread of infection more easily from the sinuses to the eyes. Clinical presentation: a 4-year-old child presented with eye swelling and pus discharge in the right eye for 5 days before being admitted to the hospital, for which she was treated with medication and did not improve. On physical examination, there is a narrow nasal cavity, inferior turbinate edema, and hyperemia, mucopurulent discharge. CT scan and MRI revealed contrast enhancement in intraorbital with suspected intraorbital abscess with orbital cellulitis, right pansinusitis, and buccal abscess. Functional endoscopic orbital decompression was done immediately.Conclusion: Orbital complications due to acute rhinosinusitis are uncommon but potentially lead to more fatal complications. Early diagnosis and aggressive treatment of immediate functional endoscopic sinus surgery and antimicrobial therapy have a good outcome.
