Abstract

Introduction: Ameloblastoma is a benign odontogenic tumor that appears in the mandible and maxilla. Ameloblastoma has slow growth that takes several years for symptoms to appear, but ameloblastoma in the maxilla has a more aggressive clinical course compared to the mandible. The lack of initial symptoms leading to diagnosis at an advanced disease when the tumour has already extended beyond maxilla. The cancellous structure of the maxillary bone makes it easier for tumors to spread to the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, orbitals, parapharyngeal tissue and skull base. This article reports a case of resection of maxillary ameloblastoma. Case Report: A 63 year old female patient came with complaints of a lump on her right cheek since 2 years back that gradually increased in size. Since 2 months ago, pus and blood have been coming out of the lump. Extra oral examination revealed a well-defined mass with a solid and hard consistency, there were no ulcers or fistulas. Intraorally, a mass measuring 5x5x3cm was found in the region of teeth 12 to 15 which extended to the buccal-palatal area. History of allergies and weight loss was denied. Supporting examinations including panoramic radiography, PA chest radiography, CT-Scan, FNAB, and biopsy resulted in a diagnosis of ameloblastoma. Treatment was carried out by resection of the right maxillary tumor mass under general anesthesia. Discussion: In this case, the patient's clinical examination showed a hard and large palpable swelling in the right maxilla area which extended from the region of tooth 12 to tooth 15 which caused facial asymmetry and no tooth mobility was found. This hard and painless swelling takes about 2 years before the patient experiences symptoms of pus and blood discharge. The post-maxillectomy defect in this case was covered with an intraoral prosthesis in the form of a post-surgical obturator made of acrylic resin. The obturator functions to hold the surgical packing, and prevent food or dirt contamination in the defect area which can cause infection and slow healing. The use of a prosthesis also helps restore swallowing and speech function to the patient. Conlussion: In principle, the treatment for ameloblastoma is resection of the involved bone, as in this case the action taken is a maxillectomy. Maxillectomy can result in facial and oral cavity deformities characterised by facial disfigurement and alterations in oral functionality.Therefore, maxillary reconstruction is needed to treat maxillary defects after surgical procedures involving the loss of part or all of the maxilla.

Abstract

Introduction: Biliary atresia is the most frequent cause of obstructive jaundice leading to liver fibrosis, end-stage liver disease, and death. Kasai surgery offers a bridge to attenuate liver fibrosis progression through reconstruction of the biliary system. The success of the Kasai procedure depends on the presence of jaundice, age at the time of surgery, clay-colored stool, and bilirubin counts. Aim: This study aimed to investigate and predict the death incidence of Biliary atresia patients following Kasai Surgery in our institution. Method: We conducted a case-control study from March 2020 to January 2022 at Kariadi General Hospital, Semarang, Indonesia. We collected data related to gender, age at surgery, albumin level pre and post-surgery, total and direct bilirubin before and after surgery, and the presence of ascites. Bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square test with OR (95% CI) was performed to analyze the risk factors in BA patients following the Kasai procedure. Results: 19 patients with biliary atresia underwent the Kasai procedure with a survival rate of 68.4%. Bilirubin levels ≥10 mg/dL before (p=0.033, OR 11.25) and after (p=0.025, OR 11.00) the Kasai procedure, and the presence of ascites (p=0.005) were significant factors associated with mortality cases. However, a combined multivariate analysis of these factors did not show any significant relationship with outcomes. Conclusion: Bilirubin exceeding 10 mg/dL before and after the Kasai procedure and the presence of Ascites was a marker for poor outcomes for biliary atresia patients following the Kasai procedure

Abstract

Background: Orbital involvement is the most common complication in rhinosinusitis presenting about 60-75%. The manifestation of orbital complications such as eyelid edema, proptosis, eye movement disorder and loss of vision. The potential risk factors for developing complications are described in several studies. Purpose: To examine the risk factors for orbital complication in odontogenic rhinosinusitis. Methods: A retrospective case control study of 34 patients from July 2022 to July 2023 based on medical records. The subjects were classified into two groups, the case group involving odontogenic rhinosinusitis patients with orbital complication and the control group involving patients without orbital complications. Risk factors were sex, onset of odontogenic sinusitis, sinonasal symptoms, diabetes, histopathological findings, laboratory findings and CT scan images of sinus. The characteristics of orbital complications and the types of pathogenic bacteria cultivated were recorded. Results: There number of patients in each group were 17, with the female to male ratio of 2,4:1, aged 8 to 81 years were enrolled in this study. The most common orbital complication was sub periosteal abscess (41%). We found 64% positive bacterial growth from tissue culture dominated by Staphylococcus sp. (54.5%). Histopathological examination showed the main inflammatory cell of the sinus mucosal epithelium was neutrophil in both groups. The logistic regression test showed that the risk factors for orbital complication were absolute neutrophil count p 0.008, OR 81.062, mucopurulent discharge p 0.009, OR 0.006 and sinus involvement p 0.027, OR 0.152. Conclusion: Orbital complications were associated with sinus involvement with main symptom involving mucopurulent discharge and higher absolute neutrophil count.

Abstract

BACKGROUND : Atherosclerosis is associated with hypercholesterolemia and inflammation. Edamame, a high-genistein soybean variant, is believed to have protective effects against atherosclerosis. AIMS : This study aimed to determine the influence of edamame extract rich in genistein on the eosinophil-lymphocyte ratio (ELR) levels in rats induced with atherosclerosis. METHOD : This research utilized a true experimental design with a post-test only control group. Thirty male rats were divided into five groups: negative control, positive control, treatment 1 with edamame extract supplementation, treatment 2 with edamame extract rich in genistein supplementation, and treatment 3 receiving atorvastatin. After 28 days, the ELR levels were examined from rat blood. Data were analyzed using One-Way ANOVA - Bonferroni, Kruskal-Wallis – Mann-Whitney, and Pearson correlation tests. RESULT : There were no significant differences in ELR levels (p>0.05) among all treatment groups compared to the negative and positive control groups. T-tests between the negative control and positive control groups, as well as between the positive control and the three treatment groups successively, showed non-significant results (p: 0.376; 0.856; 0.169; 0.066). CONCLUSION : The administration of edamame extract rich in genistein did not significantly reduce inflammation levels in blood vessels compared to edamame extract alone, as indicated by non-significant results in the ELR difference analysis.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: The incidence of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is increasing every year, characterized by inflammation of the nasal and paranasal sinuses mucoperiosteum for more than 12 weeks. The inflammatory process of CRS sometimes spreads to the surrounding bone tissue resulting in osteitis. Computerized tomography scan (CT scan) can assess the degree of mucosal inflammation using the Lund-Mackay score (LMS) while the degree of bone thickening and remodelling are assessed with Global osteitis score (GOS) and Kennedy osteitis score (KOS). AIMS: To evaluate the correlation between CRS severity assessment using LMS and osteitis severity assessment using GOS and KOS METHODS: A retrospective analysis using a cross-sectional design was conducted that included 63 CT scans of the paranasal sinus of CRS patients. The spearman rank test was used to analyze data. RESULTS: Assessment using LMS showed 44% patients were classified as severe, while 29% and 27% patients were classified as moderate and mild respectively. Global osteitis score showed 2% patients were categorized as severe, while 22% and 46% patients were categorized as moderate and mild respectively, and 30% patients were not significant. Based on KOS assessment, it was found that 3% patients were classified as severe, while 38% and 59% patients were classified as moderate mild respectively. There was a significant correlation between CRS severity using LMS and GOS (p 0.000) with rho= 0.951. There was a significant correlation between CRS severity using LMS and KOS (p 0.000) with rho value= 0.452. CONCLUSION: This study shows a significant correlation between CRS severity assessment using LMS and bone thickening and remodelling assessment using GOS and KOS. In comparison with KOS, GOS has stronger relationship with LMS.

Abstract

Background: Burns are a global public health issue, with many studies on topical medications that are effective in second-degree burns. Hydrolyzed VCO (hVCO) contains lauric acid, polyferol and alpha tocopherol which are beneficial in wound healing. This study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of hVCO cream macrophage formation for second degree burn wound healing in Wistar rats. Methods: A parallel group study was conducted on thirty wistar rats randomly divided into six groups induced second degree burns. Basic cream was applied to two control groups on the 6th and 12th day, 70% hVCO was applied to two groups on the 6th and 12th day, and 100% hVCO was applied to two groups on the 6th and 12th day. Histopathological examination of macrophage formation was conducted in each treatment. Result: The groups with hydrolyzed VCO cream on day 12 (p=0,089) had higher macrophage formation than the same hVCO group on day 6 (p=0,354). The macrophage count of hVCO in each group showed an increase. Conclusion: 100% hVCO is effective in accelerating second degree burn wound healing in terms of macrophage count.

Abstract

Introduction: Acute bacterial rhinosinusitis in children can cause orbital complications, either directly through fissures or indirectly through veins. Proper treatment can reduce morbidity due to orbital complications. Case: Two cases of orbital complications in pediatric acute bacterial rhinosinusitis caused by adenoid hypertrophy and dental infection. The first case of acute bacterial rhinosinusitis with periorbital cellulitis and left premaxillary abscess accompanied by adenoid hypertrophy and multiple pulp gangrene. The second case of acute bacterial rhinosinusitis with subperiosteal abscess accompanied by adenoid hypertrophy and multiple dental caries. Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS), abscess drainage, adenoidectomy and odontectomy were performed. The culture results of the first patient were Streptococcus anginosus, and it was resistant to tetracycline. Meanwhile, the culture results of the second patient, Staphylococcus epidermidis, were resistant to amoxiclav, ampicillin, cefoxitin, oxacillin, penicillin G, and tetracyclin. Conclusion: Acute rhinosinusitis with orbital complications can caused by adenoid hypertrophy and dental infection. Medical treatment with adequate antibiotic followed by FESS, abscess drainage, adenoidectomy and odontectomy give an optimal result.

Abstract

Background. Protein energy wasting (PEW) is one of several markers of the quality of hemodialysis (HD) services in Indonesia, however not many studies conducted PEW assessement with quality of life (QoL) domain of regular HD patients. Aim: To determine comparison of PEW assessment with QoL domains in regular HD patients. Method: A Cross-sectional study with total sampling of 105 regular HD patients at Sanjiwani Gianyar General Hospital, on June to July 2022, The PEW assessments: body mass index (BMI), serum albumin, subjective global assessment (SGA), malnutrition inflammation score (MIS), and the International Society of Renal Nutrition and Malnutrition (ISRNM) with QoL domains by KDQOL-SF (Kidney Disease Quality of Life Short Form). Results.  Most of the subjects were men (54.2%), the mean age was51.66 years and mean duration of HD was 50.28 months. The mean of BMI, serum creatinine, and serum albumin were 23.46 kg/m2, 9.70 mg/dL, and 3.86 mg/dL respectively, and median MIS 5. This study obtained significant correlation of BMI and QoL domains: work status, physical functioning, role of physics, energy/fatigue, and SF 12 physical composite. The MIS also significantly correlated with emotional well-being, sleep, and burden of disease. And ISRNM significantly correlated with energy/fatigue, and sexual function, On logistic regression analysis, this study obtained that albumin was significantly related to general health, emotional well-being, and energy/fatigue, Conclusion: Assessment of PEW (BMI, serum albumin, MIS, SGA, and ISRNM ) were related to several domains of QoL.

Abstract

BACKGROUND : The upper respiratory tract is susceptible to inflammation caused by exposure to airborne contaminants, particularly chemical irritants. Inhaled irritant gases can lead to various symptoms and adverse reactions in the respiratory tract. Laboratory workers are at a high risk of respiratory tract inflammation due to exposure to volatile chemicals. The use of personal protective equipment (PPE), such as masks, is essential to prevent inflammation and protect the respiratory tract. Lung function tests using spirometry, including Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1.0), and Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF), can help identify abnormalities in lung function. AIMS :  The primary objective of this investigation is to juxtapose the pulmonary conditions of laboratory workers before and after the utilization of KN95® masks and Acchadana® masks. METHOD : The study design was a Randomized Control Trial, and the subjects were divided into two groups: the control group wearing KN95 masks and the treatment group wearing Acchadana® herbal masks. Spirometry measurements were taken before and after using the masks, and statistical analysis was conducted to compare the results. RESULT :  The results showed that both mask groups experienced improvements in lung function parameters after using the masks. However, the KN95 mask group showed better lung conditions compared to the Acchadana® mask group. CONCLUSION : Spirometry tests conducted on lab workers revealed improved lung function metrics (including FVC, FEV1.0, and PEF) following the usage of KN95 masks and Acchadana® herbal masks. The KN95 mask users exhibited superior respiratory health compared to the other group in this investigation.
