Abstract

Background: Kirschner wire as internal fixation is a common instrument used in any small bone, including on Acromioclavicular Dislocation Surgical Treatment (ADST). Due to the characteristic of the wire, which is less rigid than any other instrument, the wire can sometimes migrate unexpectedly into various locations. Wire migration has been reported sporadically since 1943. However, spinal migration is still underreported. In addition, the mechanism of spinal migration and the evacuation method remains unclear. Objective: The purpose of this study was to report a case of K-wire spinal migration to cervical vertebrae C6-C7 following surgical treatment and discuss the case using the results of a scoping review. Case: A 51 years-old man with wire migration to cervical vertebrae C6-C7 complained of painful sensations around the left side of the neck and left shoulder, which aggravated with shoulder movement. He underwent left acra omioclavicular joint repair surgery three years ago after a motorcycle accident. No other abnormalities were found in either physical or neurological examinations. Discussion: In the last 10 years, six cases of spinal migration after ADST have been reported, with less than one case reported a year. The cases' gender was all male, with a mean age of 43.33 years old. The majority of them underwent acromioclavicular fixation in 50% of cases, and the average time from migration to surgery is 71 months. The most common migration is located in the cervical region (66.67%), and the penetrating points are equal in all cases. In the non-bent wire group, an entire migration has been reported. The evacuation technique used in all previous cases was direct access surgery by gently pulling out the wire along its axis under visual control. Various mechanisms contribute to spinal migration, but shoulder movement is arguably the most influential factor. Conclusion: Cervical migration post-ADST commonly occurs and may cause severe morbidity.

Abstract

Highlights The use of eucalyptus oil is natural and risk-free. It has a lengthy history of use as a traditional medicine in Asia, including Indonesia. It has been demonstrated that eucalyptus oil possesses antibacterial activity against MRSA, and this activity was controlled by the oil's concentration. Abstract Background: Eucalyptus (Melaleuca leucadendra) oil is used by Indonesians as an herbal medicine. Eucalyptus containing 1,8-cineol at 72.30% is expected to be used as an antibacterial.  Objective: The study aimed to assess the antibacterial activity of eucalyptus oil against Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria in vitro. Material and Method: The materials used were eucalyptus oil (M. leucadendra) in various concentrations with ethyl acetate as solvent. The research method used was the agar-well diffusion assay. The MRSA was suspended to 0.5 McFarland turbidity. The MRSA suspension was thoroughly swabbed onto the surface of the Mueller-Hinton agar plate. The wells were made with a diameter of 0.6 mm on Muller-Hinton agar aseptically and 100 µl of eucalyptus oil was put into the well using a micropipette and incubated for 24 hours at 37°C. The diameter of the inhibition zone was measured with a caliper. Statistical analysis using the SPSS software edition 23. Result: Eucalyptus oil solution starting from a concentration of 10% to 100% had an antibacterial response, which could be seen by the formation of a bacterial inhibition zone around the eucalyptus oil (M. leucadendra) wells. The inhibition ability of eucalyptus oil against MRSA bacteria was greatest at a concentration of 90% with an inhibition zone of 31.26 mm. It was found that the concentration of eucalyptus oil affected the diameter of the bacterial inhibition area. Conclusion: Eucalyptus oil has been shown to have antibacterial activity against MRSA and was influenced by the concentration of the oil.

Abstract

Highlights: Rheumatic diseases, like many others, are often misdiagnosed and treated late in life, resulting in the increase of rheumatic diseases incidence. Gender, age, level of education, and occupation all play crucial roles in the onset of rheumatic disorders. Abstract Background: The epidemiology of rheumatic diseases plays an important role in the spread of rheumatic diseases worldwide. Epidemiology data of rheumatology diseases in Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital remains unclear as there are some problems such as rheumatic drug depletion and imperfect medical recording.  Objective: This study aimed to analyze the pattern of rheumatic diseases at the Division of Rheumatology, Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia.  Material and Method: This prospective descriptive study used secondary data from medical records between November 2021 and March 2022 at the Division of Rheumatology, Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital. The variables of this study were gender, age, occupation, education level, disease duration, and clinical manifestations. Results: Secondary data was provided by 109 patients in this study. Gender was dominated by women as much as 96 (88%), age was dominated by age groups 26-35 years and 46-55 years, each as much as 26 (23.8%), educational level was dominated by senior high school as much as 24 (22%), and employment was dominated by housewives as much as 39 (35.7%) in the Divison of Rheumatology, Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia. Based on disease incidence, 42 patients (38.5%) had systemic lupus erythematosus, and 38 patients (34.8%) had ankylosing spondylitis. Conclusion: Rheumatology patients at Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital Surabaya are predominantly female, aged 26-55, with senior high school education. The diseases mostly affect housewives and have a higher frequency of systemic lupus erythematosus and ankylosing spondylitis.

Abstract

Highlights Biodentine has undergone thorough research as a bone grafting substance due to its ability to promote bone regeneration and effectively treat root or tooth fractures. PRF and Biodentine can stimulate osteogenesis, affecting bone repair, particularly in mandibular fractures.   Abstract Background:  Mandibular fracture is one of the most common fractures. The most common treatment for mandibular fractures is fixation. Therefore, xenogeneic agents such as platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and Biodentine accelerate the reparative process. Biodentine is an interesting active ingredient that can induce bone regeneration. PRF and Biodentine can promote bone healing, but no literature discusses the differences between PRF and Biodentine osteoinduction mechanisms in treating mandibular fractures. Objective:  This article aimed to compare the effect of osteoinductive PRF with Biodentine for mandibular fractures. Material and Method: The research was conducted as a scoping review by performing a thorough search of the PubMed, Scopus, Science Direct, Elsevier, and Google Scholar databases. The study was obtained based on literature studies in the form of journals and textbooks in the last ten years (2013-2023). Result: The osteoinductive effect and mechanism of Biodentine in enhancing bone repair are likely correlated with releasing biologically active ions from calcium silicate cement and stimulating gene expression Runx-2. PRF has an osteoinductive role, causing the mechanism of releasing growth factors such as PDGF, VEGF, TGF-β, and IGF that promote the osteogenic process. Conclusion: There was no significant difference in the osteoinduction effect of PRF and Biodentine because these materials have different mechanisms of action for bone repair.

Abstract

Highlights Smoking is a notable and extensively debated risk factor for problems following tooth extraction, but research on electronic cigarettes remains scarce. Electronic cigarettes contain various components comparable with those in conventional cigarettes, potentially resulting in similar chemical composition and effects on alveolar osteitis.   Abstract Background: Tooth extraction is one of the minor dental surgical procedures involving the hard and soft tissues of the oral cavity and has several possible complications. One potential risk is alveolar osteitis, also known as dry socket, which is an inflammation marked by intense pain and the dislodging of the blood clot. Smoking behavior is a significant risk factor for alveolar osteitis. Objective: This article aimed to analyze the effect of smoking and electronic cigarette ingredients on the incidence of alveolar osteitis after tooth extraction. Material and Methods: This research was conducted as a scoping review by performing thorough search of the PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar databases. Research published between 2013 and August 2023 in English language were assessed in this review. Result: A total of ten papers have been included in the analysis. Comparative studies consistently demonstrated that individuals who engage in smoking are at a significantly elevated risk of developing alveolar osteitis following tooth extraction. Discussion: Both conventional and electronic cigarettes can dislodge the blood clot that forms at the tooth socket after tooth extraction as a result of the sucking movement involved in smoking. Electronic cigarette components reduce oxygen delivery to healing tissues, hence accelerating fibrinolysis. Conclusion: Electronic cigarettes affect the occurrence of alveolar osteitis by the act of smoke inhaling and the presence of substances like carbon monoxide and nicotine.

Abstract

Highlights LAH might effectively increase pregnancy outcomes for frozen-thawed embryo transfer. Zona pellucida drilling might help increase pregnancy outcomes in FET.   Abstract Background:  Zona Pellucida (ZP)  thickness of less than 16 mm is better for embryo implantation inside the endometrium. Laser Assisted Hatching (LAH) is commonly used, especially in non-contact mode, using a 1.48-um infrared diode laser beam because of its short exposure time, accurate positioning, simple operation, indirect contact, safety, and effectiveness. Objective:  This paper describes the potential of laser-assisted hatching in biochemical pregnancy outcomes in Frozen Embryo Thawed transfers. Material and Method: The total number of patients enrolled in this study was 141. Patients were prospectively treated during embryo transfers at Pusat Fertilitas Bocah Indonesia, Primaya Hospital at Tangerang, Indonesia, from December 2020 until December 2021. Result:  There were no significant differences between the LAH and no-LAH groups regarding average age, infertility duration, infertility type, and etiology of infertility (p>0.05). In the same line, the blastocyst (0.76 ± 0.87; 1.25 ± 1.08) compared with cleavage (0.72 ± 0.84; 0.67 ± 0.98) (p<0.534 and p< .032). There was no significant difference, even though clinically, the proportions of live births, multiple pregnancies, biochemical pregnancies, and ongoing pregnancies in the LAH group were not exceptions to the outcomes of failures and miscarriages. Conclusion:  LAH did not appear to increase the pregnancy rate in this study. However, the methodology seems to reduce bias in this study by considering methodology for selecting FET embryos based on the cryopreserved condition, embryo quality, and precise LAH.

Abstract

Highlights: Budesonide-Formoterol was the most commonly prescribed medication for controlling and relieving symptoms in most individuals with bronchial asthma. Most patients reported good control of their asthma, and most also reported no subjective problems.   Abstract Background: Bronchial asthma is a common disease affecting the patient's quality of life and impacting daily life. The incidence of asthma is increasing in many countries around the world, although hospitalization and death rates due to asthma have decreased. Objective: This study aimed to explain the sociodemographic (age, sex, body mass index, smoking status) and clinical (comorbidities, subjective complaints, asthma control status, pharmacological therapy, and pharmaceutical step therapy) characteristics of bronchial asthma patients at the Pulmonary Outpatient Clinic the Universitas Airlangga Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia. Material and Method: An analytic observational study with retrospective cross-sectional research was conducted from December 2021 to January 2023 using secondary data in medical records with total sampling as the sampling technique. Result: From 70 cases, 35 patients made the three-times visits. The majority of these patients who met the inclusion criteria were female (78.6%), 50 to 59 years old (27.1%), had class 1 obese (38.6%), non-smokers (77.1%), and had no comorbidities (28.6%). On the first, second, and third visits, the patients had no subjective complaints, had well-maintained asthma status control, used controllers and relievers in the form of Budesonide-Formoterol, and did not receive additional therapy. They had step therapy in the category of preferred controllers and relievers, steps 1–2. Conclusion: The majority of bronchial asthma patients at Universitas Airlangga Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia, were female, aged 50–59 years, non-smokers, obese class 1, had no subjective complaints, well-controlled asthma, preferred controllers and relievers steps 1–2, using Budesonide-Formoterol as controller and reliever therapy, and did not receive additional therapy.

Abstract

Highlights Dengue fever, caused by mosquitoes known as Aedes aegypti, can be avoided by applying larvicides while the insects are still in their larval stage. The extract from soursop leaves at a concentration of 3% is the most effective for Aedes aegypti larvae, resulting in 100% mortality.   Abstract Background: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is an infectious disease caused by one of the four serotypes of dengue virus transmitted through mosquitoes, especially Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. As the Aedes aegypti mosquito-borne DHF illness is still in its larval stage, it can be prevented by utilizing larvicides. A more secure and efficient method to eliminate mosquitoes is by using natural larvicides. Underutilized soursop leaves contain secondary metabolite components that can potentially be larvicides, such as annonins, saponins, flavonoids, and tannins. Objective: This study was to determine the effectiveness of soursop leaf extract as a larvicide in controlling Aedes aegypti vectors and to determine the most effective concentration of soursop leaf extract as an Aedes aegypti larvicide. Material and Method: The study was an analytic observational study utilizing a cross-sectional methodology. This study was carried out from March to May 2022. Soursop leaves were extracted using the percolation method, employing a solvent of 96% ethanol with alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, and tannins. Results: The soursop leaves extract yielded in this study was as much as 131.22 grams (13.12%). The most effective concentration of soursop (Annona muricata L.) leaves was 3%, with a mortality value of 100%, not much different from the value resulting from 1% temephos. The LC50 results obtained a value of 0.163%. Conclusion: Soursop leaf extract was effective as a larvicide against Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae.

Abstract

Highlights Autoimmune optic neuropathy (AON) is one of the diseases that involve the central nervous system (CNS) and can result in disability if not treated quickly and appropriately. The autoimmune optic neuropathy (AON) patient's profile, including disease etiology and therapy, is essential to minimize the incidence of AON.   Abstract Background: Autoimmune optic neuropathy (AON) is a kind of optic neuritis that causes progressive and severe vision loss. The presence of an autoimmune disease usually characterizes the diagnosis of this disease. Several autoimmune processes that can cause AON are Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD), Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Immunoglobulin (MOG-IgG), and other disorders, specifically systemic autoimmune disease, such as Systemic Lupus Erythematous (SLE), Sjogren's Syndrome, and Sarcoidosis. Risk factors for AON involve young adults and women. Most of the patients received therapy according to the ONTT protocol and underwent outpatient treatment with oral methylprednisolone or prednisone. Objective: The study aimed to obtain the autoimmune optic neuropathy (AON) profile in patients at the Ophthalmology Outpatient Installation of Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital Surabaya, Indonesia, in the 2017-2022 Period. Material and Method: This retrospective descriptive study used medical records; 70 subjects were included. Result: Most subjects suffered from SLE (55.7%) as the cause of AON and received therapy according to the ONTT protocol, namely oral methylprednisolone or prednisone (67.1%) with outpatient therapy. Some patients were given other therapies (25.7%), such as mecobalamin and other B complex vitamins. Conclusion: AON is an uncommon condition. However, if not treated promptly and effectively, it can result in handicaps. This study may serve as a reference for future relevant research and as an attempt to prevent the disease.

Abstract

Highlights Hyperspermia is often ignored, but it can affect fecundability by diluting sperm and reducing sperm concentration. Hyperspermia might be associated with genetic causes and male accessory gland infections, but no specific treatment is mentioned to treat this condition.   Abstract Background: Hyperspermia is defined as a seminal volume greater than 6.3 ml. This definition is often ignored by physicians, while it may affect fecundability. Objective: To report a case of an adult with hyperspermia that affects his fecundability and to discuss it with the scoping review's result. Case: A 30-year-old man came desiring to have a child. He had regular sexual intercourse with his wife for the last 3 months, after living in different cities before. Based on the semen analysis, it was found that he had hyperspermia (volume 8.2 ml) and oligozoospermia (sperm concentration 4.25 million/ml). After taking antioxidants, the seminal volume was lowered, and the couple got pregnant. Method: A scoping review was conducted by using guidelines of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for scoping reviews (PRISMA-ScR). After a comprehensive search based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, only 3 original research were retrieved due to the rarity of articles regarding this topic. Discussion: According to previous studies, hyperspermia can affect fecund-ability by diluting the sperm, causing sperm concentration to be decreased as in this case. Genetic mutation and male accessory gland infection may be contributing factors to hyperspermia. No consensus and studies about the treatment are available. Conclusion: Hyperspermia is a semen parameter alteration that needs to be taken care of to increase fecundability.
