Abstract

Thyroid nodules are uneven and lumpy enlargements of the thyroid gland, with a prevalence of approximately 8% in the adult population and occurring more frequently in women. This case report aims to describe the evaluation and management of patients with multiple nodular thyroid. A case of a 36-year-old female patient who presented with a complaint of a neck lump that had been slowly enlarging for several months—from the size of a marble to that of a ping pong ball—is reported. The lump was palpable, solid, and painless, without symptoms of hyperthyroidism or obstruction. Physical examination revealed thyroid gland enlargement with a solid consistency. Complete blood count and HBsAg laboratory results were within normal limits. The patient was diagnosed with multiple nodular thyroid and underwent total thyroidectomy. The surgery was performed successfully without complications. Multiple nodular thyroid is generally benign but requires careful evaluation to rule out the possibility of malignancy. Definitive management through total thyroidectomy provided good outcomes in this case.

Abstract

Axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) and sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) are widely used surgical procedures for breast cancer management. Previous studies have reported a lower incidence of range of motion (ROM) limitations and lymphedema following SLNB. However, no systematic review has been conducted to consolidate these findings. This research aims to systematically compare the incidence of ROM limitations and lymphedema in breast cancer patients undergoing ALND versus SLNB. The methods follow PRISMA 2020 guidelines, with a literature search conducted using PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane databases. The population included early-stage invasive breast cancer patients who underwent either SLNB or ALND. A qualitative analysis was performed to assess postoperative ROM limitations and lymphedema. Ten studies involving 8,523 patients were included. Both procedures were applied to patients with operable, early-stage invasive breast cancer. Qualitative analysis indicated that SLNB was generally associated with fewer postoperative complications, particularly in terms of ROM limitation and lymphedema. Some studies reported similar outcomes for both techniques regarding ROM limitation and lymphedema, but SLNB showed better outcomes in terms of postoperative complications such as lymphedema and ROM limitation. However, heterogeneity in definitions, assessment methods, lymph node involvement, and surgical techniques was noted across studies. This systematic review suggests that SLNB is associated with a lower incidence of ROM limitations and lymphedema compared to ALND, supporting its use as a less morbid surgical approach in early-stage breast cancer.

Abstract

Scattered radiation exposure during radiology procedures can reach the head and eye lenses of personnel, requiring eye protection with good radiation attenuation capabilities without compromising comfort. Conventional lead-based radiation protection materials have high density, making them heavy and less ergonomic for long-term use. This study aims to evaluate the X-ray attenuation capability of a transparent epoxy resin–bismuth oxide (Bi₂O₃) composite as a candidate optical shielding material for radiation glasses based on the Half Value Layer (HVL) parameter. The composite was made using epoxy resin as a matrix and Bi₂O₃ as a high atomic number filler, with a mass ratio of 5:1 and a thickness of 0.5 mm and 1.0 mm. Measurements were performed using a diagnostic X-ray machine at voltages of 40 kV and 45 kV with an ionization dosimeter detector. The HVL value was calculated based on the linear attenuation coefficient (μ), and the data were analyzed using the Shapiro–Wilk normality test and Spearman's correlation. The results showed that an increase in composite thickness resulted in an increase in the HVL value, and there was a significant positive correlation between thickness and HVL (r = 0.681; p < 0.01). The epoxy resin–Bi₂O₃ composite showed effective attenuation at thin thicknesses with optical transparency characteristics, making it a potential lead-free optical shielding material for radiation glasses. These findings demonstrate that Bi₂O₃--epoxy resin composites are promising candidates for developing lightweight, transparent, and effective radiation protective eyewear.

Abstract

Traumatic oral mucosal ulcers are common lesions that require effective inflammatory regulation for optimal healing, in which macrophages play a crucial role. Long-term use of topical corticosteroids is associated with adverse effects, encouraging the exploration of safer herbal-based alternatives. Impatiens balsamina L. has demonstrated anti-inflammatory and wound-healing properties; however, evidence regarding its effect on macrophage responses in traumatic oral ulcers remains limited. This research aimed to evaluate the effect of topical Impatiens balsamina L. extract gel on macrophage cell counts during the healing of traumatic oral mucosal ulcers. An in vivo experimental study with a post-test only control group design was conducted using 27 male Wistar rats. Traumatic ulcers were induced on the inferior labial vestibular mucosa and treated topically for three days with either 15% extract gel, 10% extract gel, or gel base (n= 9 per group). Macrophage counts were assessed histologically using Hematoxylin and Eosin staining. Data were analyzed using Welch’s one-way ANOVA followed by the Games–Howell post hoc test. Mean macrophage counts were highest in the 15% extract gel group (111.78 ±15.68), followed by the 10% group (45.00 ±10.56) and the control group (22.22±3.35). Significant differences were observed among all groups (P<0.001). Topical Impatiens balsamina L. extract gel significantly increased macrophage presence during traumatic oral ulcer healing, with the 15% concentration showing superior effectiveness. These findings confirm that Impatiens balsamina L. extract gel accelerates the inflammatory phase of wound healing by enhancing macrophage recruitment, supporting its potential as a natural alternative for oral ulcer management.

Abstract

Menarche, the onset of menstruation, is a significant event in a woman’s life, yet it often becomes a source of anxiety for adolescent girls, especially those lacking adequate knowledge and support. This study aimed to analyze the influence of menstrual knowledge and mother-child communication on anxiety levels in fourth to sixth grades female students at Ash-Shodiq Islamic Elementary School Bululawang. This study employing a cross-sectional design with a descriptive analytical quantitative approach, with involved 55 selected through purposive sampling. The results revealed that majority of students experienced severe anxiety related to menstruation. Ordinal logistic regression analysis revealed poor menstrual knowledge and poor effective mother-child communication significantly contributed to elevated anxiety levels in partially. However, through simultaneously analysis, it was found that only menstrual knowledge had a significant effect on anxiety after controlling for the mother-child communication variable. These findings underscore the importance of sound menstrual knowledge in mitigating anxiety in students facing menarche, while effective mother-child communication also plays a crucial role, albeit one that needs to be complemented by adequate knowledge.

Abstract

Systemic lupus erythematous is often accompanied by complications in the cardiovascular system such as pericarditis, valvular disease, coronary artery disease, but complications in the conduction pathway are rare condition. Conduction system disorders such as complete heart block can cause life-threatening conditions and require immediate treatment. This case report describes a 43-year-old woman who presented with syncope and complete heart block. The patient received high-dose corticosteroid therapy but the complete heart block did not improve so a permanent pacemaker was implanted. This case showed that SLE complications in the cardiovascular system including the cardiac conduction system must be watched out for because it is a life-threatening condition.

Abstract

In clinical practice, the Agatston Score can be calculated manually or automatically using post-processing software such as Syngo.Via; However, the difference in absolute values between these methods can affect clinical interpretation. The study aimed to compare measurements of the Agatston Score obtained using the Syngo.Via automated method and manual calculations on non-contrast cardiac CT, with an emphasis on measurement differences, suitability, and reliability. A quantitative observational analytical study was conducted using retrospective no-contrast cardiac CT data from 20 subjects. The Agatston score is calculated automatically using Syngo.Via and manually using the Weasis software on the same image dataset. The difference in measurement was analyzed descriptively and tested for normality. Statistical differences were evaluated using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test, suitability was evaluated using Bland–Altman analysis, and reliability was evaluated using the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) with a two-way mixed effect model and absolute suitability. Results showed that a difference between the method was not normally distributed and a statistically significant difference in the Agatston score was observed (p < 0.05). The Bland–Altman analysis showed that most of the differences were distributed around the zero line with a few outliers, while the ICC analysis revealed a very high reliability between the two methods (ICC = 1,000). In conclusion, the automatic and manual measurement of the Agatston Score showed excellent reliability and good agreement despite the statistically significant differences in absolute values, suggesting that the two methods could be compared.

Abstract

Penile trauma in pediatric patients is a rare but clinically significant condition. While most cases result from accidental mechanisms such as falls or sports injuries, clinicians must maintain a high index of suspicion for non-accidental injury (NAI), particularly when the presenting history is inconsistent with the injury pattern or when the mechanism involves interpersonal violence. This case report aims to describe the clinical presentation, diagnostic evaluation, surgical management, and outcome of an 8-year-old boy who sustained penile trauma following suspected physical abuse. A descriptive observational design in the form of a case report was employed. Data were collected retrospectively from the patient's medical records, encompassing demographic information, clinical history, physical examination findings, imaging studies (ultrasonography with Doppler), treatment interventions, and postoperative outcomes. The patient presented with progressive penile swelling and pain. Imaging revealed intact corpora cavernosa and corpus spongiosum, with soft tissue oedema and fluid collection at the distal glans. Initial conservative management was insufficient, necessitating surgical intervention comprising debridement, penile reconstruction, and defect closure using a complex local flap technique combined with circumcision. Postoperatively, the patient demonstrated gradual wound healing with no signs of surgical site infection or early postoperative complications. The possibility of non-accidental injury should always be considered in pediatric penile trauma, particularly in cases with an inconsistent history or delayed presentation. Ultrasonography with Doppler is a valuable non-invasive imaging modality for the assessment of penile injuries. When conservative management is inadequate or presentation is delayed, timely surgical reconstruction using local flap techniques can achieve favorable functional and cosmetic outcomes while minimizing long-term morbidity.
