Background: The most prevalent joint condition and leading contributor to disability is osteoarthritis (OA), resulting in a significant socio-economic impact. It occurs due to an imbalance of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory mediators, influencing anabolic and catabolic activities. This study aims to determine the effect of activated growth factor (AGF) on alpha-SMA levels. Methods: This research is an in vivo post-test-only control group experimental study conducted at the Eureka Research Laboratory. Thirty male Wistar rats were divided into five treatment groups: normal control group, negative control group, AGF I group (TGF-β 100 pg/mL), AGF II group (TGF-β 1000 pg/mL), and AGF III group (TGF-β 10,000 pg/mL). AGF was obtained from rat blood intravenously and centrifuged at a predetermined speed. Growth factor activation was performed by adding 10% CaCl2, and then TGF-β levels were measured. All groups of rats were acclimatized for 7 days. After that, osteoarthritis was induced with intra-articular injection of monoiodoacetate (MIA) 4.8 mg/60μL in all groups of rats except the normal control group. Next, rats were given treatment according to the group for 21 days. On the 21st day, rats were euthanized, and alpha-SMA levels were measured using the sandwich method ELISA kit. Results: Sequentially, the mean Alpha-SMA levels for each group in pg/mL were: 91.495 ± 2.36; 10.682 ± 1.09; 30.502 ± 2.00; 52.892 ± 1.29; and 76.180 ± 2.65. In the AGF group, there was an increase in alpha-SMA levels directly proportional to the dose of TGF-β injected. Conclusion: AGF has an effect on increasing alpha-SMA levels in the joints of rats with a model of osteoarthritis.

Background: Gout is the most prevalent type of inflammatory arthritis, which can lead to inflammation in the joints. However, septic arthritis is unusual in gout. Case presentation: A 34-year-old male presented with lumps on the right ankle with cloudy white fluid discharge for 5 days prior to admission. The patient also has lumps observed on the left pedis, and manus bilateral. The patient regularly takes Allopurinol daily and Piroxicam prior to admission. The physical examination had a limited range of movement. Laboratory examinations found elevated uric acid, impaired renal function, elevated white blood cells, and elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate. The patient was then referred for surgical debridement. Conclusion: Chronic gout marked by persistent polyarticular engagement and the formation of tophi. In individuals left untreated, septic arthritis and gout may manifest, followed by deformities of joints, which need further diagnosis and management.

Background: Intraocular pressure (IOP) assessment involves evaluating the force exerted by aqueous humor on the internal surface of the anterior eye. Elevated IOP poses a substantial risk for glaucomatous optic neuropathy and is a key modifiable clinical risk factor. This study aims to explore cases of ocular hypertension coupled with optic nerve cupping, suspected to be glaucoma, providing comprehensive details of examination results, diagnosis, and subsequent management. Case presentation: A 23-year-old Asian male underwent an ocular examination, revealing average IOP levels measured using non-contact tonometry. Despite no complaints, consecutive measurements noted 28 mmHg for the right eye and 26 mmHg for the left eye. Initial assessments by a glaucoma specialist indicated open-angle anterior chambers. Optical coherence tomography revealed cup disc ratios of 0.7 to 0.8 for both eyes. Medication (Timol) was prescribed, adjusting with oral citicoline and brinzolamide. The diagnosis evolved to juvenile open-angle glaucoma (JOAG). Visual field testing showed normal results. Discontinuation of treatment led to reclassifying the diagnosis as ocular hypertension and scheduling follow-up OCT examinations for five years. Conclusion: The patient exhibited corneal thickness ≥610 μm, CDR ≥0.7 μm, IOP >25 mmHg, and maintained good visual field conditions. Additional research is essential to understand the correlation between corneal thickness and other eye conditions. Recognizing potential overdiagnosis due to high IOP and large CDR emphasizes the need for meticulous clinical assessment and advanced diagnostic examinations to distinguish physiological and pathological conditions.

Bronchoscopy is a medical procedure that provides tracheobronchial visualization by placing a bronchoscope and is carried out by a competent doctor. Bronchoscopy is the main interventional procedure used in determining the diagnosis and staging of cancer patients and plays a role in interstitial lung disease and infections. The basic principle of bronchoscopy sampling is carried out with a combination of rinsing, brushing, needle aspiration and biopsy. Cryobiopsy has advantages over conventional forceps biopsy and electrocautery because it can produce tissue without artifacts. Navigated bronchoscopy techniques have facilitated peripheral lung tumor biopsies that have better diagnostic yield than conventional transbronchial biopsies. The combination of navigation bronchoscopy with an ultrathin bronchoscope for peripheral lesions is more effective than either modality.

Background: Peripheral neuropathy is a common side effect of paclitaxel chemotherapy that can cause tingling, numbness, and pain in the hands and feet. Metformin, an antidiabetic drug, shows potential in preventing and managing paclitaxel chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. This review article aims to evaluate the efficacy of metformin in the prevention and management of peripheral neuropathy due to paclitaxel chemotherapy. Methods: Electronic literature (PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science) was reviewed to find clinical studies examining the efficacy of metformin in the prevention and management of paclitaxel chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. Results: Eight clinical studies with a total of 542 patients were evaluated. Metformin significantly reduced the risk of developing peripheral neuropathy compared with placebo (OR = 0.54; 95% CI: 0.32-0.91). Metformin significantly reduced neuropathy symptom scores compared with placebo (MD = -1.52; 95% CI: -2.43 to -0.61). Metformin significantly improved patients' quality of life compared with placebo (MD = 0.48; 95% CI: 0.17-0.79). Conclusion: Metformin shows promising efficacy in the prevention and management of paclitaxel chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.

Background: Parathyroid adenoma is a benign neoplasm of the parathyroid glands and can result in hypercalcemia due to excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH). This elevated PTH can have various manifestations, including bone fractures. Case presentation: We report the case of Tn. AB is a 41-year-old man with a series of recurrent bone fractures following minor traumas. Within a span of three years, he suffered from fractures in the right femur, left femur, and left humerus, which led to multiple surgeries, including total hip replacements. Further assessments showed an increased level of PTH and a suspicious lesion in the neck region. A CT scan revealed a potential parathyroid adenoma in the peritracheal region of the right side. Moreover, a Sestamibi scan confirmed an adenoma in the postero-inferior lobe of the right thyroid, consistent with Perrier type C, alongside osteoblastic processes and brown tumours. A subsequent parathyroidectomy confirmed a 2 cm diameter adenoma in the right lower parathyroid lobe. Histopathology from the excised tissue confirmed the diagnosis of parathyroid adenoma. Conclusion: Parathyroid adenomas can have significant clinical manifestations, including recurrent bone fractures, due to their metabolic effects on bone integrity. Early detection and surgical intervention can prevent complications and improve the quality of life for these patients.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic autoimmune inflammatory disease that can affect many organs in the body with very diverse clinical appearances. The prevalence of SLE in each country varies. The Lupus Foundation of America estimates that around 1.5 million cases occur in America and at least 5 million cases occur worldwide. The pathophysiology of SLE is very complex. The involvement of innate and adaptive immunity in the initiation and pathophysiology of SLE disease shows that there are interactions between leukocytes, cytokines, chemokines and tissue cells. T cells are the main component of the adaptive immune system which can kill infected host cells, activate other immune cells, produce cytokines and regulate immune responses. T cell dysfunction in SLE includes triggering inflammation through the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, helping B cells produce autoantibodies and the accumulation of autoreactive T cells. Aberrations in T cells could be a therapeutic target for development and a potential SLE therapy.

Background: Erythema dyschromicum perstans (EDP), also known as ashy dermatosis, is an uncommon, acquired, and persistent skin condition identified by development of hyperpigmented macules of varying sizes on the trunk, face, and extremities. It exact cause is unknown, and there is ongoing debate surrounding its treatment. Dermoscopic assessments may prove beneficial in evaluating the effectiveness of therapeutic interventions. Case presentation: We present a case of a 20-year-old woman with numerous hyperpigmented macules of brown to slate-grey on her upper trunk, stomach, back, and extremities over the past three years. The patient reported no symptoms such as itching, numbness, or pain. Upon physical examination, mild anemia but otherwise healthy. On physical examination there are multiple brown-grey patches with reddish borders of varying sizes distributed across the body, with unaffected mucosa, scalp, palms, soles, and nails. Dermoscopic examination unveiled a widespread distribution of brown to grey backgrounds with a pinkish homogeneous appearance. Histopathological examination suitable for erythema dyschromicum perstans. The patient received a diagnosis of erythema dyschromicum perstans and underwent treatment involving a combination of topical steroids and Nb-UVB administered three times weekly for a duration of 8 weeks. Conclusion: This condition presents a cosmetic concern throughout the patient's lifetime and significantly affects their quality of life. After 8 weeks of the combination of topical steroids and Nb-UVB, there was a improvement of erythema and lesion appear lighter. This observation suggests that a treatment with a consistently favorable outcome has not been identified and necessitates further investigation.
