Abstract

Introduction: People with tuberculosis (TB) have an increased risk of pulmonary cancer. They are also disproportionately affected by risk factors like immune suppression, smoking, and alcohol misuse. A lung tumor is reported to have occurred after an episode of TB, but we reported a patient with a lung tumor with co-infection TB and lung abscess at the same time. Case: A 73-year-old man was hospitalized at Arifin Achmad General Hospital, Pekanbaru, with a 3-day history of bloody cough 2-3 times a day, 1-2 tablespoons estimated by the patient for blood from the cough. The patient had a cough with white phlegm in the last 4 months before the bloody cough. The patient also had a fever, night sweats, a limp body, decreased appetite for 6 months, and decreased body weight by 15 kg in the last year. Heterogenic consolidation on the superior lobe of the lung with prominence compression and irregular boundaries in the apex was found. We found an air bronchogram and multiple cavities with air-fluid levels inside the lesion. We also found a satellite nodule in the inferior lung and a mass connected with the chest wall. GeneXpert showed low detection for Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The patient was diagnosed with a left lung abscess, pulmonary TB, left lung tumor T4N2M1a, unspecified type of tumor stage IVA PS2, and osteoporosis. Conclusion: Lung tumors could also be diagnosed with co-infection TB. Proper diagnosis to make sure cancer and TB are co-infected is necessary. Therefore, it will not be just a single disease that is treated.

Abstract

Introduction: Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is a type of tuberculosis (TB) that is resistant to at least two of the most effective first-line anti-TB drugs, isoniazid (H) and rifampicin (R). Cycloserine (Cs) and levofloxacin (Lfx) are second-line anti-TB drugs used in MDR-TB therapy. Even though they are considered to have high effectiveness, both drugs have the potential to cause side effects. One important side effect is neurotoxicity. Seizures have been reported as a common complication of some drugs. Case: A 39-year-old man was diagnosed with MDR-TB and was treated with individual regimens consisting of Lfx, bedaquiline (Bdq), linezolid (Lzd), clofazimine (Cfz), and Cs. After consuming anti-TB drugs for 27 days, the patient had seizures several times. The patient experienced full-body seizures and loss of consciousness during the seizures. Cs and Lfx were discontinued and replaced by other regimens. Serial electroencephalogram (EEG) showed normal results. After Cs and Lfx were discontinued, the patient never had another seizure. Conclusion: Management of MDR-TB is sometimes complicated because of severe drug side effects. Patients taking Cs and fluoroquinolones (FQs) should be advised to report any sign of seizure or changes in mental status to their healthcare provider.

Abstract

Introduction: One of the main ingredients in cigarettes is nicotine, which has a significant impact on a person's dependence on cigarettes. Nicotine can be detected in a smoker's urine as a sign that his body is processing nicotine. The important enzyme CYP2A6 is involved in nicotine metabolism. This study aimed to determine the relationship between CYP2A6 genetic polymorphisms and nicotine metabolism among male smokers in Indonesia. Methods: This study included 100 male smokers who met the inclusion criteria in a cross-sectional design using a consecutive sampling between the ages of 20 and 65 years old. Restrictions fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was applied to examine the genetic polymorphism of CYP2A6, and nicotine metabolite levels in urine were examined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) examination. Results: This study involved one hundred smokers, and 78 tested positive for the CYP2A6 polymorphism. The CYP2A6 genetic polymorphism and nicotine metabolism were not significantly correlated (p-value > 0.05). Allele *1A and genotype 1B/1B were more common in this study population. The majority of study participants had fast metabolic rates. Conclusion: No correlation was seen between the genetic polymorphisms of CYP2A6 and nicotine metabolism in Indonesian male smokers. Consequently, it is crucial to conduct future research in diverse populations with larger samples.

Abstract

Introduction: The management of tuberculosis-associated secondary spontaneous pneumothorax mostly requires chest tube insertion for complete drainage and resolution. We reported a case of tuberculosis-associated secondary spontaneous pneumothorax that improved with needle aspiration. Case: A 29-year-old female with pulmonary tuberculosis presented with sudden onset shortness of breath. Chest examination revealed asymmetry, decreased vocal fremitus, hypersonor, and decreased vesicular sound in the right lung field. Chest radiograph showed right pneumothorax with a 2 cm intrapleural distance. Needle aspiration was performed because the patient refused chest tube insertion. The first needle aspiration evacuated approximately 615 cc of air. The second needle aspiration was repeated 24 hours later due to clinical deterioration, and 610 cc of air was evacuated. Chest radiograph evaluation on the 6th day of treatment showed no pneumothorax. During hospitalization, the patient received oxygen therapy, anti-tuberculosis drugs, chest physiotherapy, and other symptomatic therapies such as mucolytics. The patient's condition improved, and she was discharged on the 9th day of hospitalization. Tuberculosis-associated secondary pneumothorax occurs in 1-3% of cases. Conclusion: Needle aspiration is a therapeutic modality for tuberculosis-associated secondary spontaneous pneumothorax. This modality has several advantages, including shorter length of stay, less cost and pain, and fewer complications. Needle aspiration combined with oxygen therapy, anti-tuberculosis drugs, and chest physiotherapy should be the modality of treatment for tuberculosis-associated secondary pneumothorax.

Abstract

Pneumoascariasis is an infestation from one of the most common worms or helminths found on earth in the respiratory system. The worm is called Ascaris lumbricoides, which penetrates and infests the human body through the fecal-oral process. The fertilized Ascaris ova, or simply egg, would develop into larvae, which then move to the liver and lungs through the portal vein system. These larvae will soon develop into mature worms in the human respiratory system, inside the lungs, particularly in the bronchioles. These Ascaris larvae trigger common symptoms such as persistent cough, shortness of breath, and wheezing. To diagnose this condition, supplementary examinations are necessary since it is difficult to diagnose only by history taking and some physical exams. Additional exams include chest X-rays that, at one point, display lung infiltration. The chest computed tomography (CT) scan shows ground-glass opacity and a classic inflammation marker called Charcot-Leyden crystals that are most likely present. Pneumoascariasis is often misinterpreted and misdiagnosed. Therefore, this literature review was made to further understand about pneumoascariasis.

Abstract

Introduction: Giant cell carcinoma (GCC) of the lung is a subtype of lung cancer, undifferentiated non-small cell carcinoma, in which there are no features of small cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, or squamous cell carcinoma. Due to its aggressive clinical manifestations and peculiar pathological features, GCC of the lung is a highly anaplastic variant of bronchogenic carcinoma. Case: A 45-year-old woman was clinically suspected of having a lung malignancy, and a biopsy of the right lower lobe pleura and parietal pleura was performed. The histopathology showed hypercellular tumor cell clusters, forming a syncytia-like sheet pattern. Tumor cells were pleomorphic and contained many giant cells that confirmed the diagnosis of GCC. The patient was diagnosed with GCC of the lung, stage IVB, Karnofsky scores 50-60% with malignant pleural effusion, peritoneal metastases, bone metastases, and grade 3 malignant ascites with bacterial peritonitis. The patient passed away due to septic shock caused by bacterial peritonitis. GCC of the lung is one of the aggressive types of lung cancer. GCC has an unusual tendency to metastasize to the gastrointestinal tract. In this case, the patient had an enlarged abdomen since it was known that she had a malignancy that had continued to grow. From the ascitic fluid analysis, a carcinoma was found to be seeding. Conclusion: The prognosis of GCC of the lung is generally poor. Our case was diagnosed with GCC of the lung that had already spread to the bone, peritoneal, and had grade ascites. The patient's survival rate was generally poor, and she passed away due to bacterial peritonitis without having received any therapy for her cancer.

Abstract

Introduction: Tuberculous pleurisy (TP) is the pleural inflammation caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) and a rare manifestation of childhood tuberculosis (TB). It is characterized by a large amount of fibrin, sticky adhesion, and even calcification. Pleural adhesion can significantly affect respiratory function and quality of life. Therefore, early detection, prompt therapy, and drainage of pleural effusion are crucial for preventing pleural adhesion. This case report is intended to enhance clinician awareness regarding avoiding and managing pleural thickening in TP. Case: A 14-year-old child had shortness of breath, fever for 2 weeks, cough, loss of appetite, and no smoking history. The laboratory results showed anemia and non-reactive human immunodeficiency viruses (HIV), analyzed pleural fluid monocyte showed 72%, and glucose 58%. Adenosine deaminase (ADA) analysis showed a rise above 61 U/L. The tuberculin skin test was negative. The chest X-ray showed right pleural effusion, the chest ultrasonography revealed a right hemithorax echo-free plane, and the computed tomography (CT) scan showed right pleural effusion and pulmonary fibrosis. The thoracoscopy view showed fibrinous adhesion-producing tenting and vascularization in the base without multiple nodules. Water-sealed drainage was performed and produced approximately 3,450 ml with serous xanthochromia. Then the patient was diagnosed with TP and treated with anti-TB drugs and steroids. Conclusion: Typical TP with fibrinous adhesions is an infrequent condition. This case report highlighted the importance of extensive screening using a thoracoscopy view and ADA analysis in patients with TP, especially in countries with a high TB burden.

Abstract

Introduction: Despite the effective global mass vaccination programs, which included booster shots, the emergence of new SARS-CoV-2 strains threatens to undo the enormous success achieved thus far in stopping its spread. This study aimed to assess the demographics of COVID-19 patients from February to May 2021. Methods: Data were collected using secondary data from the medical records of Klungkung Regional General Hospital, Klungkung, at the time range according to the study period. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25.0 for Windows and Microsoft Excel 2016 were used for the statistical analysis. All quantitative data, such as age, length of stay, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), were estimated using central location measures (mean range). Proportions were used to describe qualitative or category variables. Results: The demographic description of COVID-19 patients at Klungkung Regional General Hospital, Klungkung, found an average age of 51.94 years old. More patients were found to be male (55.4%) and did not have comorbidities (55.3%). Fourteen patients (14.4%) were gravid, and 37 patients (17.8%) were treated in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). A total of 61 patients (29.3%) had desaturase with an NLR (mean) of 6.97 (51% increase). The average length of stay was 10.16 days, with the result of 24 patients dying (11.5%). Conclusion: Patients with COVID-19 were found to have milder symptoms with less use of the ICU, not all of them experienced decreased saturation, and the case fatality rate was 11.5%.

Abstract

Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD) is the third-leading cause of death worldwide. COPD treatment is essential to manage and attenuate the progression of symptoms. Home-based telemonitoring interventions showed several promises in increasing COPD patients' quality of life (QoL) and outcomes. However, various results were obtained in recent studies, making a secondary research presence needed to establish clear risks and benefits. This study aimed to analyze the effect of telemonitoring on QoL among COPD patients. Methods: This study used the Preferred Reporting Items of Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) reporting guidelines on several databases from February until April 2023. We performed screening and selection, followed by data extraction and quantitative analysis with Review Manager 5.4 Software. The risk of bias assessment was performed using the RoB 2.0 Cochrane tool. Results: Ten randomized controlled trials (RCTs), mostly low-risk of bias, were included. We found a reduction in Saint George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) score (mean difference (MD) -1.13 [95% CI -4.23, 1.97; p = 0.47]) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) for anxiety (MD-0.16 [95% Cl -0.96, 0.63; p = 0.69]). There was no significant effect of HADS on depression and EuroQol-5 Dimension (EQ-5D). Conclusion: This study suggests that telemonitoring improves QoL in COPD patients, especially for SGRQ and HADS anxiety scores. We suggest a larger number of studies to evaluate the effect of telemonitoring on depression and anxiety. We also encourage the integration of telemedicine with the present care system to achieve the best beneficial outcome for patients.
