Abstract

Introduction: Overseas studies have shown various distributions of breast cancer primary tumor locations based on stages and histopathologic types. Based on them, breast cancer was consistently reported to be found on theleft breast more than the right. Breast cancer laterality was estimated to be one of the determinant factors in prognosis. In Indonesia, there are only a few studies on the laterality of breast cancer, as well as the characteristics that accompany it. The aim of this study is to know the distributions of primary breast cancer tumor locations in Indonesian patients.Material and Methods: A cross-sectional design study was done and the data was collected from Siloam Hospital Lippo Village radiology and pathology anatomy department within the 2014-2018 period. The results were presented using descriptive statistics.Results: A total of 74 breast cancer patients from various ages and stages were enrolled in this study. Based on the histopathological types, 84.2% patients left breast tumors and 72.2% patients with right breast tumors had invasive ductal carcinoma of no special type. Based on quadrants, 50% tumors on the left breast are in the superolateral quadrant, followed by 31.6% in superomedial, 13.2% in inferomedial, and the rest in inferolateral. Conclusion: Most tumors are located in the superolateral quadrant and the most histopathological types are non-specific invasive carcinomas.

Abstract

Introduction: As a result of today's technology advancements, many people, including youngsters, are spending more time watching television, playing video games, or using social media on computers or phones. Sedentary lifestyle refers to behaviors like these. Students' activities became passive as a result of studying online at home. As a result, the chance of acquiring more weight and eventually being obese increases. That is the basic issue addressed in the study. The majority of youngsters spend their time on video games, television, or social networking. One of the signs of a sedentary lifestyle is a lack of physical activity. In youngsters, a lack of physical activity might raise the chance of being overweight or obese.Objective: The purpose of this study is to look into the link between a sedentary lifestyle and a high BMI among Jayapura Christian School Junior High School students.Methods: This is a cross-sectional study including Jayapura Christian School Junior High School students. Purposive sampling is a strategy for collecting data. The Adolescent Sedentary Activity Questionnaire (ASAQ) was used to collect data and determine Sedentary Lifestyle. In addition, BMI categories were utilized to determine whether someone was normal, overweight, or obese.Results: The majority of the respondents have an overweight or obese BMI (n=35; 67.3 percent) and a normal BMI (n=17; 32.7 percent), as well as a heavy sedentary lifestyle (n=45; 86.5 percent) and a moderate or light (n=7; 13.5 percent) lifestyle. Using the chi-square statistical test, the results of the two variables analysis, sedentary lifestyle and body mass index category, yielded a p-value of 0.003 and an odds ratio of 17.37 (95 percent CI:2.262-440.1). When compared to students who have a mild or moderate sedentary lifestyle, students with a severe sedentary lifestyle have odds 17.37 times higher chance of having a BMI above normal.Conclusions: There is a substantial link between a sedentary lifestyle and a BMI over the usual limit among Jayapura Christian School Junior High School students.

Abstract

The pathophysiology behind neuropsychiatric SLE (NPSLE) remains poorly understood and its clinical and radiological manifestations are highly varied. In this report, we present a complex case of an adolescent female patient with a three-week history of systemic symptoms (fever, nausea, vomiting, weight-loss, polyarticular joint pain), progressive motor weakness, tremor, and altered mental status. Physical examination was significant for oromandibular and cervical dystonia rigidity, and general weakness with imposed right-sided hemiparesis. A head MRI demonstrated bilateral hyperintense lesions of the basal ganglia and brainstem, SS without restricted diffusion. The patient was diagnosed with NPSLE, lupus nephritis, electrolyte imbalance, severe hypoalbuminemia, lupus cardiomyopathy, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, pulmonary tuberculosis, and sepsis. The patient was given treatment in the ICU with pulse dose corticosteroids, intravenous antibiotics, intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIg), and supportive treatment with correction of hematologic and electrolyte abnormalities. Her condition improved rapidly. Full alertness was regained, and symptoms of oromandibular dystonia, tremor, and weakness diminished significantly. A follow-up MRI three weeks later revealed complete disappearance of lesions, which we attribute to resolution of the inflammatory process in the brain.
