Abstract

Intellectual disability (ID) brings challenges to the affected individuals, their families, and the community at large. It is a multifactorial condition with many contributing factors, namely genetics. This review aims to briefly provide several related genetic conditions for ID in the Indonesian population. Literature studies search relevant articles using PubMed and Google Scholar using the terms ‘intellectual disability’, ‘genetics', ‘Indonesian population’. In Indonesia, the prevalence of children with ID is 1–3%, with 62,011 school-aged children affected with Intellectual Disability. Genetics plays a role in around 25–50% of cases. ID in the Indonesian population is associated with several genetic disorders, namely Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), fragile X syndrome (FXS), Down syndrome (DS), Apert syndrome, and subtelomeric chromosomal rearrangements. There is limited research on genetics related to intellectual disability in Indonesia, implying further research is needed.

Abstract

Diabetes is one of the most rapidly growing global health emergencies of the 21st century, it is estimated that 537 million (10.3%) people have diabetes, and this number is expected to reach 643 million (11.3%) in 2030, and 783 million (12.2%) %) in 2045. Vitamin D plays a role in insulin secretion by stimulating beta-cell secretion or facilitating the conversion of pro-insulin to insulin. Therefore, vitamin D deficiency may be involved in the pathogenesis of DM type 2. This study aims to analyze the characteristics, HbA1c level status, and vitamin D level status in DM type 2 patients in primary care. The research was conducted in September 2022 with DM type 2 patients who came to the Plaju Palembang Health Center as research subjects. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between age and HbA1c levels in DM type 2 patients (p=0.020) and there was no relationship between gender, occupation, education level, BMI, abdominal circumference, family history, duration of diabetes, and vitamin D levels with HbA1c levels in DM type 2 patients (p>0.05)

Abstract

Dysmenorrhea is a common occurrence in most women. The pain arising from dysmenorrhea ranges from mild to moderate and can disrupt daily activities and performance. Many women practice self-medication to alleviate this pain. This self-medication practice is influenced by several factors, one of which is the level of knowledge. This study aims to explore the relationship between the level of knowledge among female students and self-medication behavior in dysmenorrhea. This study used a cross-sectional design with a random sampling of female students from SMK Negeri 2 Palembang. The total sample involved 41 students. Data were collected and analyzed using chi-square and Mann-Whitney U tests. The majority of students experienced dysmenorrhea (87.8%) with an average Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score of 4.6. The duration of pain varied, with most experiencing pain for 2-3 days after menstruation. Almost all students (97.6%) had good or sufficient knowledge about dysmenorrhea. However, only a few students practiced self-medication (11.1%), with paracetamol being the most commonly used medication. The analysis showed a significant relationship between knowledge level and self-medication behavior (p=0.002, OR: 12.681). The level of knowledge among female students is significantly associated with self-medication behavior in dysmenorrhea. Better health education on dysmenorrhea management and the use of safe medication needs to be strengthened to reduce the risk of side effects and improve the well-being of students.

Abstract

Disorders of Sex Development (DSD) encompass rare congenital conditions involving atypical development of chromosomes, gonads, or sex anatomy. The 2006 global consensus led to a shift in the approach to handling DSD cases, emphasizing integrated treatment involving various scientific disciplines. DSD diagnosis involves a structured and multimodality approach, including history, pedigree analysis, physical examination, imaging, hormone and chromosome analysis, and genetic testing. An in-depth anamnesis and detailed pedigree analysis help trace family history and inheritance patterns of Mendelian traits in DSD cases. Thorough physical examination, including general and specific assessments, helps screen for abnormalities in sexual development. Karyotyping, hormone level investigation, and imaging examinations are crucial for supporting the diagnosis of DSD. However, genetic or molecular examination remains the modality for definitively confirming the genetic disorder underlying DSD, subsequently leading to a better understanding and management of the condition. Considering the limited resources available in the field in efforts to establish a molecular diagnosis of DSD, it is recommended to explore the role of anamnesis, pedigree analysis, physical examination, imaging examination, hormonal laboratory examination, and chromosome analysis in efforts to approach the diagnosis of DSD.
