Abstract

Thyroglossal duct cyst is the most common congenital neck abnormality, resulting from failure of the thyroglossal duct to obliterate during the embryogenesis of the thyroid gland. A 13-year-old female patient complaining of a lump under her chin for approximately 5 years prior to admission. Initially, the lump was painless, but two weeks before admission, it enlarged and was accompanied by throbbing pain and signs of local inflammation. Physical examination revealed a mass in the submental region with tenderness and erythema, without cervical lymph node enlargement. FNAB Examination result showed a thyroglossal duct cyst without signs of malignancy. Based on the anamnesis, physical examination, and supporting examination results, the patient was diagnosed with a thyroglossal duct cyst. The patient underwent a Sistrunk procedure under general anesthesia. The operation approximately 40 minutes and involved excision of the cyst and duct tract, resection of the middle part of hyoid bone, and placement of a handscoon drain. Postoperative wound care proceeded well, improvement in pain, stable condition, and no complications of bleeding or surgical wound infection. On the fourth postoperative day, the patient's condition was stable and she was allowed to go home with oral therapy.

Abstract

Tuberculosis, a highly infectious ailment, is triggered by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, primarily affecting the lung's functional tissue. Transmission occurs when a person inhales airborne saliva droplets containing the bacteria expelled by a tuberculosis patient through coughing, thus spreading the disease. This investigation sought to determine the attributes of tuberculosis patients receiving outpatient care, along with the pattern of anti-tuberculosis drug prescriptions at X Hospital Medan between July and December 2023. Metode; The study utilized a non-experimental approach because of its design and structure, which involved collecting survey data from the hospital's historical records. Ninety-six tuberculosis drug prescriptions issued during July–December 2023 were selected through random sampling. The study's findings revealed that, among 96 patients, the 46–55 age group comprised 22 individuals (22.9%), with females accounting for 55 patients (57.3%), and 94 patients (95.8%) utilized BPJS as their payment guarantor. The research indicated that Category I anti-tuberculosis drugs were prescribed more frequently than Category II anti-tuberculosis drugs for 92 patients (95.8%), and 59 patients (61.5%) at X Hospital received OAT-FDC, a commonly employed tuberculosis treatment. This study proposed that future research should outline the anti-tuberculosis medication prescription profile, using patients’ health information.

Abstract

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder with substantial psychophysiological components. Integrated therapeutic approaches combining physical exercise and mindfulness practices may address both glycemic and psychological aspects, yet comprehensive evidence remains limited. This systematic review evaluated the effectiveness of combined physical exercise and mindfulness interventions on glycemic regulation and psychophysiological outcomes in patients with T2DM. A systematic search of PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar identified experimental and quasi-experimental studies published between 2021 and 2025. Eligible studies included adult patients with T2DM who received combined physical exercise and mindfulness interventions. Outcomes assessed included glycemic control (HbA1c, fasting blood glucose) and psychophysiological parameters (stress, depression, quality of life). Narrative synthesis and comparison tables were used for qualitative analysis, and risk of bias was evaluated using the Cochrane RoB 2 tool and the Newcastle–Ottawa Scale. Five studies met the inclusion criteria (n = 386 participants). Combined interventions produced greater improvements than single-component or control conditions. Mean HbA1c reduction ranged from 0.7% to 1.1%, fasting blood glucose decreased by 12.5 to 23.07 mg/dL, and depression or stress scores declined by 20% to 45%. Additional benefits included better nerve conduction velocity, self-efficacy, medication adherence, and quality of life. Proposed mechanisms involved modulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, enhanced insulin sensitivity, and increased neuroplasticity. In conclusion, combined physical exercise and mindfulness interventions demonstrate superior effectiveness over single-modality or standard care approaches in improving glycemic control and psychophysiological well-being in T2DM. This integrated strategy represents a promising adjunct for T2DM management. Further randomized controlled trials with larger cohorts and extended follow-up are needed to substantiate clinical recommendations.

Abstract

Sleep quality matters most for mental health among social media users—more than screen time, stress, or any demographic factor. We analyzed data from 477 social media users to identify which behavioral and psychosocial factors best predict mental well-being, as measured by a happiness index. Three factors showed significant associations: daily screen time, sleep quality, and stress levels. Respondents who spent more time on screens, slept poorly, and experienced high stress reported worse mental health. But sleep quality dominated. People with good sleep were 5.6 times more likely to report healthy mental wellbeing than those sleeping poorly (OR = 5.559; 95% CI: 2.841-10.878; p < 0.001), even after accounting for screen time and stress. Surprisingly, age, gender, physical activity, and platform choice showed no relationship with mental health. These findings challenge the assumption that simply reducing social media use improves wellbeing. Instead, public health interventions should prioritize sleep hygiene alongside, not instead of, managing screen time and stress. In our increasingly digital world, how we rest may matter more than how much we scroll
