Abstract

Introduction: Visual Inspection with Acetic Acid (VIA) is an early detection method for cervical precancerous lesions. VIA coverage in Indonesia remains low. This study aimed to analyze the association of sociodemographic factors, information sources, and husband’s support with VIA test acceptance among women of reproductive age at Padang Pasir Health Center, Padang City. Method: An analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted in December 2023. The population consisted of women of reproductive age in the working area of Padang Pasir Health Center. A total of 100 respondents were selected using consecutive sampling. Data were collected through structured interviews with questionnaires and analyzed statistically. Result: The analysis revealed no significant association between age, education, occupation, or socioeconomic status and VIA acceptance. In contrast, information sources and husband’s support were significantly associated with acceptance. No significant relationship was found between acceptance and actual participation in VIA screening. Conclusion: Sociodemographic factors did not influence VIA acceptance. Information access and husband’s support were key determinants of willingness to undergo VIA testing. Strengthening health promotion and involving husbands in cervical cancer prevention programs are recommended strategies to increase VIA coverage.

Abstract

Introduction: Polycystic ovary syndrome involves the endocrine system, metabolic system, as well as the reproductive system contributing to anovulatory infertility. Polycystic ovary syndrome affects 5-20% of reproductive age and 6-12% of adolescents. Oxidative stress is known to play an important role in the pathogenesis of PCOS resulting in excessive formation of ROS (malondialdehyde). ROS can be controlled by the antioxidant inositol and has minimal side effects.  To determine the effectivity of inositol antioxidant on malondialdehyde serum levels in female students Medical faculty, Andalas University with clinical PCOS. Methods: This study is a clinical trial research with a pure experimental study design (true experimental design). There were 23 samples for the experimental group and 23 samples for the control group selected by probability sampling. Normality test using Shapiro-Wilk test. Data analysis using Independent T test and Mann Whitney Test. Results: There was a significant decrease in malondialdehyde serum levels in PCOS students who consumed inositol therapy for 3 months. Conclusion: There is an effect of inositol antioxidant consumption on malondialdehyde serum levels in female students Medical faculty, Andalas University with clinical polycystic ovary syndrome.

Abstract

Introduction: There is an increase in caesarean sections trend globally. Caesarean section is generally performed to assist deliveries that cannot be carried out normally, but this also has a significant impact on both maternal and child health, as well as the economic burden so it is necessary to evaluate the factors that influence decision for caesarean section, to determine the relationship between parity, antenatal care Method: This study is an analytical observational study with a case control design conducted in July 2024 using medical record data of pregnant women who underwent caesarean section or vaginal delivery at the Pariaman City Regional General Hospital in the urban area and Sungai Dareh Regional Hospital at Dharmasraya in rural areas. The sample for this study were pregnant women who chose caesarean section and women after vaginal delivery who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria Results: In this study there were 354 pregnant women who underwent CS (n=177) and vaginal delivery (n=177). Bivariate analysis showed a relationship between parity (OR: 1.64 [95% CI: 1.07-2.52]; p=0.023), history of ANC (OR: 1.64 [95% CI: 1.06-2, 55]; p=0.026), pregnancy complications (OR:3.16 [95% CI: 1.98-5.03]; p=0.000), fetal presentation (OR: 2.02 [95% CI: 1.26-3.24]; p=0.003) and estimated fetal weight (OR: 1.98 [95% CI: 1.19-3.30]; p= 0.008) with the decision making of caesarean section. Multivariate analysis showed that the most influencing factors on the decision making of  caesarean section were pregnancy complications (OR 4.35 [95% CI: 2.58 – 7.34]; p= 0.000), fetal presentation (OR 3.21 [95% CI : 1.85 – 5.55]; p=0.000) and parity (OR 1.59 [95% CI: 1.01 – 2.52]; p=0.044). Conclusion: The factors that most influence the decision making of  caesarean section are pregnancy complications, fetal presentation, and parity.

Abstract

Introduction: Ovarian cancer is the primary cause of cancer-related mortality in women, with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) ranking as the second greatest cause of death among gynaecological malignancies.  The rising use of plastics has resulted in increased microplastic exposure among the population.  This exposure aligns with recognised risk factors for ovarian cancer, including genetic, hormonal, and lifestyle elements. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between microplastics in blood samples and the stage of epithelial ovarian cancer at Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital, Padang. Methods: Between August 2024 and January 2025, a cross-sectional analytical correlational investigation was carried out.  Forty individuals with histopathologically verified epithelial ovarian carcinoma were consecutively recruited.  Blood samples were examined for di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) microplastics utilizing Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry (LCMS).  Data were evaluated utilizing descriptive statistics and the Chi-square test, with p < 0.05 being significant. Results: The average age of patients was 49.1±10.59 years, with the majority being multiparous, married, and of normal weight.  The histological subtypes comprised mucinous (37.5%), serous (30%), endometrioid (20%), and clear cell (12.5%).  Microplastics were identified in 30% of blood samples, with the greatest prevalence observed in mucinous (40%) and endometrioid (37.5%) subtypes. Statistical study indicated no significant correlation between microplastic occurrence and the stage of epithelial ovarian cancer (p = 0.869). Conclusion: Microplastics were identified in the blood of around one-third of patients with epithelial ovarian cancer, present across all histological subtypes. However, no substantial link was identified between the presence of microplastics and the cancer stage.

Abstract

Introduction: Early menarche is associated with long-term health problems. Currently, adolescent girls are increasingly experience the change of menarche age. Short chain fatty acids (SCFA) are known to play a role in the early release of GnRH which induces an earlier onset of menarche. However, so far there have been no human studies assessing SCFA levels in individuals with early menarche. Method: This is a case-control study in elementary school students in Padang which conducted from July 2024 to November 2024. The sample was all elementary school students in Padang who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The data collected were demographic data and SCFA levels measured in faecal samples using the ELISA method. Bivariate analysis was performed using the unpaired T-test. Result: In this study, there were 25 students with early menarche and 25 normal students. Students with early menarche experienced the earliest age of menarche in 9 years old, 56% had excessive BMI, 20% had mother history of early menarche, 20% were born prematurely, 52% had  high-fat diet, 100% lived with their parents and had no history of pornography exposure. This study found the differences in fecal SCFA levels based on age of menarche with the mean SCFA levels found to be higher in the early menarche group compared to normal menarche (39.09 ±  6.64 vs 26.91±5.01 μmol/gram; p=0.000) Conclusion: This study found the differences in fecal SCFA levels based on age of menarche

Abstract

Introduction: Legal protection for healthcare professionals is a critical issue, particularly concerning pregnancy termination procedures involving medical emergencies. This study focuses on how Indonesian law regulates pregnancy termination in cases involving anencephalic fetuses, especially when the gestational age exceeds 14 weeks, and examines the protection afforded to doctors and the practical challenges they face. The research aims to analyze the legal framework provided under Law Number 17 of 2023 on Health and assess its implementation in the field. Method: Using a juridical-normative and empirical-juridical approach with a descriptive-analytical method, this study utilizes primary data from interviews with doctors, legal scholars, and religious figures, and secondary data from relevant laws and academic literature. Result: The findings reveal that while the law allows pregnancy termination under 14 weeks for medical emergencies or pregnancies from sexual violence, it lacks clear provisions for cases exceeding 14 weeks, such as anencephaly. Although anencephaly poses a serious medical risk, legal uncertainty persists for healthcare workers who perform terminations after this threshold. Conclussion: Terminations conducted following medical standards and with consent should not be criminalized. Therefore, legal reforms and clearer regulatory guidelines are essential to ensure adequate protection for medical personnel handling such exceptional cases.

Abstract

Introduction: Cervicovaginal agenesis is rare female congenital anomalies. The patients usually present with primary amenorrhoea, cyclical abdominal pain, or primary infertility. A conservative surgical approach has been proposed to alleviate obstructive symptoms, construct, and maintain the patency of the genital tract, while still preserving fertility. Case Report:  A Ms. 14 year old was referred with primary amenorrhea and cyclical abdominal pain for 5 months. Physical examination and ultrasound revealed cervical dysgenesis with proximal vaginal dygenesis. Cervical canalization using double approach (laparotomy and trasnvaginally) was done to restore the normal anatomical integrity, maintain the functional cervical canal with a theoretical advantage of protection from ascending infection, and preservation of fertility. Discussion: Obstructed menstrual blood, causing symptoms such as primary amenorrhea, could be a sign of female congenital anomalies. Hysterectomy has been the mainstay treatment for many decades, due to the risk of reoperation. Advances in surgical technique of conservative treatment marked the overall success rate up to 60% with few cases are reported to have pregnancy. Conclusions: Double approach technique could be a feasible option for conservative surgery in cervicovaginal agenesis.

Abstract

Introduction: Pseudomyxoma Peritonei (PMP), also known as "jelly-belly," is a rare condition characterized by the accumulation of mucinous ascites in the peritoneal cavity. It often originates from mucinous neoplasms of the appendix and presents with non-specific symptoms like abdominal bloating and discomfort. Diagnosis is often incidental through imaging, surgery, or histopathology. Objective: To report the diagnosis and management of PMP in a 53-year-old woman presenting with abdominal enlargement. Case Report: A 53-year-old woman was referred with a two-month history of abdominal enlargement. Initial ultrasound findings suggested ascites due to cirrhosis or ovarian carcinoma. However, further evaluation with abdominal CT revealed ascites and cholelithiasis without signs of cirrhosis or ovarian carcinoma. Diagnostic laparoscopy showed peritoneal carcinomatosis, and 8000 ml of hemorrhagic ascites was drained. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of PMP, and tissue resection was performed. Conclusion: The management of PMP requires a comprehensive diagnostic approach, incorporating clinical history, physical examination, imaging, and histopathological evaluation. This systematic approach is crucial for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment of PMP.
