Abstract

Rhinophyma is the most severe and disfiguring manifestation of phymatous rosacea, characterized by progressive hypertrophy of sebaceous glands and connective tissue on the nasal skin. It often leads to both aesthetic and functional impairment. Various treatment options are available, with surgical excision considered the most definitive for advanced cases. This case report aims to highlight the clinical presentation, diagnostic approach, and the effectiveness of surgical excision combined with electrocautery as a treatment modality for rhinophyma. We report a case of a 49-year-old male presenting with progressive nasal enlargement, nodularity with sharply demarcated borders, an irregular surface, and a firm, slightly compressible consistency. Clinical and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of rhinophyma. The patient underwent surgical excision followed by electrocauterization. The procedure was well-tolerated without intraoperative or postoperative complications. Follow-up showed satisfactory cosmetic improvement and no signs of recurrence. The management of rhinophyma varies depending on disease severity. In advanced cases, surgical excision remains the treatment of choice. It provides immediate debulking of hypertrophic tissue and restoration of nasal contour. Combined with electrosurgical techniques, this method offers good cosmetic and functional outcomes, minimal scarring, and a low recurrence rate. It addresses both functional obstruction and cosmetic disfigurement, contributing to improved quality of life.

Abstract

Systemic sclerosis, or scleroderma, is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by fibrosis of the skin and internal organs, vasculopathy, and immune dysregulation. Raynaud’s phenomenon (RP), marked by episodic vasospasm of the digital arteries in response to cold exposure or emotional stress, is often one of the earliest and most common sign of SSc. Early diagnosis plays a crucial role in preventing and managing complications of RP, such as digital ulcers and tissue damage due to chronic circulatory impairment, as well as in reducing long-term disability. This case report aims to highlight pedal ulcers as a complication of RP scleroderma and to emphasize the importance of early intervention in preventing progressive tissue damage. The data was conducted through a comprehensive approach including history assessment, physical examinations, electronic medical record reviews, laboratory diagnostics, and imaging studies to ensure accurate diagnosis and effective interventions. We report a 26-year-old woman who presented with a six-month history of progressive skin thickening and hardening involving almost all of her body. The patient also experienced finger stiffness, flexion contractures, and limited mouth opening. Dermatological examination revealed sclerotic skin with hypopigmented and hyperpigmented patches forming a "salt-and-pepper" appearance across various body areas, along with microstomia and a beaked nose. The Modified Rodnan Skin Score (mRSS) was 34. A diagnosis of systemic sclerosis was established based on the American College of Rheumatology in collaboration with the European League Against Rheumatism (ACR/EULAR) criteria. The patient was lost to follow-up after the initial visit and later returned with toe necrosis and ulceration over the ankle area. Treatment included systemic corticosteroids combined with methotrexate, along with counseling to avoid cold exposure and manage stress. Raynaud’s phenomenon should be recognized as a critical early sign of scleroderma. Comprehensive early evaluation, including autoantibody testing, is essential for timely diagnosis and the prevention of severe vascular complications.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases worldwide, who are at a higher risk of developing psychological issues instead of physical complications. Objective to analyze the prevalence and determinant factors associated with mental health issues among diabetes patients. This cross-sectional study involving 71 diabetes mellitus patients in Lamongan Regency between May and August 2023. Data were analyzed using Spearman’s test and logistic regression (α ≤ 0.05). Among the participants, 71.8% were female, 47.9% were aged 55–65 years, and 83.1% were non-smokers. Spearman’s test results indicated no significant association between diabetes type, history of heart disease, history of hypertension, and health insurance status with mental health issues (p = 0.057, p = 0.693, p = 0.925, p = 0.544). However, a significant association was found between physical activity and mental health issues in diabetes patients (p = 0.045). Physical activity was identified as the dominant factor influencing the risk of mental health issues among diabetes patients (p = 0.028, 95% CI = 8.812 [1.267–61.317]). Diabetes patients who engage in strenuous physical activity are eight times more likely to experience mental health issues compared to those engaging in light physical activity.

Abstract

Class XII adolescents are usually preoccupied with learning in preparation for their graduation exams and college entrance exams. These hectic activities can cause aggravation if adolescents cannot deal with them well. Deep aggravation can lead to emotions. Emotional maturity is very important for adolescents in dealing with a problem. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the factors that influence the emotional maturity of adolescents at SMU N 2 Tegal Regency. This research was an observational analytic study with cross sectional design. The study population was class XII MIPA students totaling 178 and a sample of 51 students was taken by cluster sampling. Data were collected using a questionnaire to measure emotional maturity and its causative factors including self-acceptance, interaction with peers, environmental assessment of adolescents and adolescent parenting. Data were analyzed univariately and bivariately. The results showed that there was a relationship between self-acceptance attitude and emotional maturity with a pvalue: 0.038 and OR: 8.7. The percentage of students with an attitude of accepting themselves has a good emotional maturity that is more than the percentage of students who have an attitude of not accepting themselves. But there is no relationship between interaction with peers (pvalue: 0.276), assessment of the adolescent environment (pvalue: 0.657) and adolescent parenting (pvalue: 0.352) to emotional maturity. It can be concluded that the attitude of acceptance in adolescents affects the emotional maturity of adolescents so that efforts need to be made by schools and parents to improve the attitude of adolescent acceptance.

Abstract

Communication is a critical component in providing safe and high-quality nursing care. Various adverse events that occur in hospitals are mostly caused by communication errors between health workers. This literature review aims to analyze a systematic comparison of the effectiveness of the SBAR and I-PASS communication methods. Literature search methodology includes major electronic databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar with a publication time range of 2013-2023. A total of 1,008 articles were obtained from the initial search, after the screening process using the PRISMA flow diagram, 10 journals were obtained that met the criteria. Research results: Both SBAR and I-PASS methods were proven to be effective in increasing patient safety, with I-PASS showing slightly superior performance in reducing the risk of medical errors. Although both methods have a structural framework for information transfer, I-PASS shows better consistency and depth of information than SBAR. I-PASS shows superiority in handover process efficiency, with a more significant time reduction and increased communication completeness compared to SBAR. Conclusion: The I-PASS communication method is more recommended than SBAR in nursing handover practice because it has higher effectiveness in reducing the risk of medical errors and improving the quality of information transfer.

Abstract

Post Operative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV) is a common complication after surgery with spinal anesthesia, with an incidence reaching 20–30%. PONV can prolong hospitalization, increase treatment costs, and reduce patient comfort. Peppermint aromatherapy is an effective, easy, and patient-accepted alternative to reduce PONV symptoms. Peppermint contains menthol which is carminative and antispasmodic, and can provide a relaxing effect through stimulation of the central nervous system. Objective to determine the effect of peppermint aromatherapy on the incidence of PONV in patients after spinal anesthesia. Method: This study was a quasi-experiment with a pre and post test design without control. Thirty post-spinal anesthesia patients were given peppermint aromatherapy, then PONV incidence was measured before and after the intervention using the Gordon scale. Data analysis used the Wilcoxon test. Results: Peppermint aromatherapy has been proven to be effective in reducing the incidence of PONV in patients after spinal anesthesia. Of the 30 respondents, the majority experienced nausea (73.3%) and vomiting (26.7%) before the intervention. After aromatherapy, 36.7% did not experience symptoms, and only 6.7% still vomited. The Wilcoxon test showed a significant difference (p = 0.000), indicating that peppermint aromatherapy was statistically effective in reducing PONV. Conclusions: Peppermint aromatherapy is effective in reducing the incidence of PONV in post-spinal anesthesia patients, as indicated by a decrease in nausea and vomiting symptoms after the intervention.

Abstract

Postpartum anemia is a condition characterized by reduced hemoglobin levels in the blood, which diminishes the blood’s ability to optimally transport oxygen to meet the body’s physiological needs. Although a global health issue, this condition remains frequently overlooked and under-researched. This study aims to explore the perceptions, meanings, and values associated with cultural practices, such as food taboos, and their relationship to the occurrence of postpartum anemia in the Karo ethnic community. Using a qualitative approach, data were gathered through in-depth interviews with three postpartum mothers. The interviews were conducted over multiple sessions with each participant until responses became consistent. The findings revealed that specific food taboos are practiced during the postpartum period, which are culturally significant but may affect iron intake and risk worsening anemia. Postpartum mothers in the Karo ethnic community avoid consuming seafood and leafy vegetables with hairy surfaces. These foods are restricted due to the belief that they may cause itching. Food taboos among postpartum mothers in the Karo ethnic community can lead to micronutrient deficiencies, contributing to anemia. This highlights the need for health interventions that integrate cultural context and local wisdom.
