Abstract

Drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) remains a major public health challenge in Indonesia, necessitating rapid and accurate detection of resistance to key anti-tuberculosis drugs. This quantitative descriptive analytic cross-sectional study evaluated the concordance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistance detection between phenotypic Middlebrook 7H9 liquid culture and genotypic TCM XDR in 44 DR-TB patients, focusing on isoniazid (H) and fluoroquinolone/levofloxacin (FQ/Lfx) resistance. Data were analyzed using the McNemar test methode. High-concentration H resistance was detected in 68.2% by culture and 65.9% by TCM XDR, while FQ/Lfx resistance was identified in 18.2% and 15.9%, respectively. No significant differences were observed between methods for high-concentration H and FQ/Lfx resistance detection (P=1.000), indicating high concordance with cappa values 0,74 isoniazid for and 0,86 for FQ/Lfx resistance. In contrast, a significant discrepancy was found for low-concentration H resistance (P=0.001), with a discordance rate of 25%, potentially attributable to HA promoter mutations not included in the TCM XDR panel or non-genetic adaptive mechanisms.

Abstract

Pseudocyesis is a rare psychosomatic phenomenon where women experience physical signs of pregnancy without a fetus, often triggered by infertility pressure, pronatalist culture, and loss trauma. This study aims to analyze the psychosomatic etiology, socio-cultural influences, and comprehensive obstetric management strategies. Using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method guided by PRISMA 2020, literature searches were conducted on five electronic databases within the range of 2015–2014, resulting in 15 inclusion articles from a total of 187 findingsUsing a systematic literature review approach guided by PRISMA 2020, a systematic search was conducted across four electronic databasesScopus, PubMed/MEDLINE, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar for studies published between 2015 and 2024. Of 187 records initially identified, 15 studies met the eligibility criteria and were included in the final synthesis. The findings indicate that pseudocyesis is based on neuroendocrine dysregulation due to stress that suppresses dopamine and increases prolactin, triggering symptoms such as amenorrhea and galactorrhea. Psychologically, this condition acts as a defense mechanism against grief and the stigma of infertility, reinforced by cultural factors that demand proof of a woman's social status. In conclusion, obstetric management requires a holistic approach. Proof thru Ultrasonography (USG) must always be accompanied by psychological support (psychotherapy) and pharmacotherapy to prevent further mental trauma. Midwives play a crucial role in early detection and proper collaboration for psychiatric referrals.
