Abstract

Introduction: Lower extremity ulcers often create diagnostic challenges and influence patient morbidity and mortality. The most common causes are venous insufficiency, arterial insufficiency, and neuropathic. Ulcers associated with systemic condition often face diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. We report a necrotic lower extremity ulcer caused by calciphylaxis in a patient with chronic renal failure. Case: We reported a 48-year-old Javanese woman, complained of painful lower extremities ulcers since 1.5 months ago. The patient had a history of renal failure and hypertension, undergone routine hemodialysis since 13 years ago, and used Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD) since one year ago. Dermatology status on dorsum pedis sinister as well as cruris dexter and sinister showed multiple ulcers on livid skin covered by black eschar, accompanied by tenderness. Laboratory results showed anemia (Hb 7.6), hypoalbuminemia (2.7), increased serum urea level (170.4 mg/dl), increased serum creatinine (11.23 mg/dl), increased calcium (10.4 mg/dl), high inorganic phosphorus (8.5 mg/dl) and high parathyroid hormone (2,164). BOF examination showed abdominal calcification, while radiographic examination on cruris dexter et sinister showed soft tissue calcification and osteoporosis. Histopathology result supported the presence of calciphylaxis. The patient was diagnosed with stage V chronic renal failure, hypertension, and calciphylaxis caused by secondary hyperparathyroidism. She was managed by low calcium and phosphate diet, lanthanum, paracetamol, folic acid, adalat oros, captopril and wound debridement. Conclusion: Calciphylaxis is a rare phenomenon of cutaneous necrosis associated with end-stage renal disease. Control of end-stage renal disease may be an important factor for treatment of calciphylaxis and patient with calciphylaxis usually had a poor prognosis.Keywords: necrotic lower extremity ulcer, chronic renal failure, calciphylaxis

Abstract

Introduction: Leprosy and Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infections still count as major health issues worldwide. Starting with the HIV pandemic back in the eighties, leprosy was feared to re-emerge as the HIV cases arose. Co-infections between leprosy and HIV were worried to cause an increase in leprosy cases, with worse clinical manifestation, predominantly toward the lepromatous spectrum, decrease in therapy response, and prolonged therapy period. Unlike its interaction with tuberculosis, HIV infection was turned out to not increasing nor deteriorating the manifestation of leprosy infection. All clinical spectrum of leprosy was found in HIV infection patients without predomination of lepromatous type. Responses to leprosy Multi-Drug Therapy (MDT) regimen were also found similar between leprosy patients with or without HIV.Conclusion: It is recommended to treat co-infective patients both with leprosy MDT and antiretroviral therapy. Manifestation of leprosy as a part of immune reconstitution syndrome need more attention and investigation.Keywords: HIV infection, leprosy, interaction

Abstract

Background: Acne vulgaris (AV) is a common chronic skin disease involving blockage and or inflammation of pilosebaceous glands which usually affects teenagers and young adults. Elevated sebaceous gland secretion, Propionibacterium acne colonization and inflammation, high androgen effects, and follicular hyperproliferation are the main pathogenic factors of AV. IGF-1 and insulin were studied to stimulate sebaceous lipogenesis. In the skin, besides inducing lipid production in human sebocytes IGF-1 also induces keratinocyte proliferation in vitro and in vivo. HOMA-IR is an examination to determine insulin activity in the basal state.Objective: To prove that high HOMA-IR value is a risk factor for the occurrence of acne vulgaris.Methods: This study is a case control analytic study by comparing HOMA-IR in subjects with AV (case group) and non AV (control group). AV is diagnosed based on clinical predilection. Insulin testing was carried out by the immulite 2000 device through the immunochemiluminescent method.Results: Mean HOMA-IR of case group is 2.63 ± 0.29 meanwhile in the control group was 1.71 ± 0.26 (p <0.001). Subjects with high HOMA-IR had 4.8 times higher risk to experience AV compared to patients with normal HOMA-IR values (p <0.001; 95% IK 2,765-8,332). Conclusion: HOMA-IR values in acne patients were higher than controls. A high HOMA-IR value is an AV risk factor.

Abstract

Introduction: Psoriasis is a skin abnormality based on chronic inflammation immune mediated. Inflammatory mediator roles (Th-1, TNF-α, IL-6,IL-7, IL-8, IL-17, and IL-23) in its pathogenesis proven to inhibit insulin receptor and glucose uptake from fat tissue and causing insulin resistance, then blood glucose level increased. Mean blood glucose level within 3 months can be represented by HbA1c (glycosylated haemoglobin) level. HbA1c is a bond between glucose and hemoglobin.           Objective: The aim of this study is to understanding correlation between psoriasis vulgaris severity degree with HbA1c.Material and methods: This study is using cross sectional method. HbA1c level examination done by drawing venous blood, then analyzed with chromatography method. Samples were selected by using inclusion and exclusion criteria and consecutive sampling method.Result: Study result shows subject consist of total 51 subjects consists of 33 subjects with psoriasis vulgaris (22 males and 11 females with youngest age of 15 and oldest age of 65 years old), and 18 subjects without psoriasis vulgaris. Psoriasis vulgaris severity degree measured with Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI), then grouped to 3 categories: mild PASI score <6, moderate PASI score  6 – 12, and severe PASI score> 12. Mostly  (15 subjects) including mild category. HbA1c level on this study subjects resulted minimum level of 4.6%, maximum 12.1 %, and median 5.4%.  Based on Perkeni consensus, normal HbA1c level is <5,7%, prediabetes 5,7-6,4%, and diabetes >6,5%. HbA1c level of psoriasis vulgaris subjects are higher than non psoriasis vulgaris subjects significantly (p=0,019). Psoriasis vulgaris causing increase of HbA1c level with Prevalence Ratio (PR) 6,55. Thus, Psoriasis vulgaris subjects have increased risk 6,5 times to increase HbA1c level compared with non psoriasis vulgaris subjects. Correlation between severity degree and HbA1c level found in positive course significantly with moderate strength of correlation (Spearman correlation; r = 0.580, p<0,001).Conclusion: HbA1c level on psoriasis vulgaris subjects are higher than non psoriasis vulgaris, and psoriasis vulgaris severity degree positively correlated with HbA1c increasing level. Every increase of  psoriasis vulgaris severity degree will cause increase level of  HbA1c.

Abstract

Introduction: The pathogenesis of PPROM is complex and not fully understood. Recent studies showed that such role of genital tract infection as bacterial vaginosis in the pathogenesis of PPROM turned out to be present. They produce lipase enzymes in which they can form compounds with the fibrous tissue of amniotic membrane resulting in increased risk of rupture of the membrane.Objective This study aims to prove that bacterial vaginosis is a risk factor for preterm premature rupture of membrane.Material and methods: This research used case control method. Sampling was using the consecutive sampling method and had fulfilled inclusion and exclusion criteria with age-based matching, then vaginal swab sampling was conducted, painted with gram staining in the Dermalotogy and Venereology Laboratory of Sanglah Hospital, and Nugent score.Result: Total of 76 pregnant women with 24-36 weeks of gestation were investigated, 38 mothers with PPROM and 38 mothers with normal pregnancy. Average score of Nugent at preterm PROM was 7.18 and in normal pregnancy was 2.37. Bacterial vaginosis risking for PPROM 7 times (OR= 7.0, 95% CI= 1.21-17.68, p= 0.001).Conclusion: Bacterial vaginosis as a risk factor for the occurrence of PPROM.
