Abstract

Background: Magnetic Resonance Venography (MRV) is a non-invasive method that evaluates the venous system without exposure to the radiation in the procedure compared to cerebral angiography and CT Venography. Nowadays, the use of MRV cerebral started to increase even though there are still many nonvisualized (not visualized vein image) on MRV led to divergent interpretations or noncompliance to the findings of cerebral angiography, which is the gold standard to evaluate venous system. There has been few research comparing MRV findings with cerebral angiography so far. Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the findings of non-visualized on MRV compare to cerebral angiography as the gold standard in helping the interpretation of examinations to avoid misdiagnosis. Methods: Observational retrospective analytic study was used in this study that conducted at Husada Utama Surabaya Hospital from October 2013 to February 2014. 39 out of 49 patients selected as samples for fulfilling the inclusion criteria. The observation on the results of MRV and cerebral angiography procedures performed by two specialists of radiology, then the data were analyzed using SPSS. Results: Based on the findings of abnormalities location from 39 samples, we found 35.45% abnormalities in the transverse sinus, 32.91% in the sigmoid sinus, 27.84% in the jugular vein, 2.53% in the straight sinus, and 1.27% in the superior sagittal sinus.The results of comparison between MRV test and cerebral angiography showed compliance at 21% hypoplasia with 88.9% of thrombus. MRV test results with the cause of hypoplasia have100% sensitivity, 67.4% specificity, and 70% accuracy.Meanwhile, we found that 41% sensitivity, 82% specificity, and 50% accuracy because of thrombus. Conclusion: There was significant compliance between 3D-TOF MRV cerebral findings along with cerebral angiography, especially at thrombus.

Abstract

In many situations like car accidents, troubles and crime scenes we need to know if someone is drunk. This research includes rapid test to detect the alcohol drinking for those that not exhibit any signs of drunk like ataxia and vomiting, and to detect the beverage containing alcohols. The study included 30 volunteers of alcoholics and five types of beverages (Whisky, vodka, beer, wine and barbican). The sampling includes random quantity of sputum and 2 ml of blood from the volunteers. The sputum and beverages are examined by qualitative method depending on the change of dichromate solution color which is saturated and dried up on a filter paper piece in polyethylene container ready for use. If the color changes from yellow to blue-green this means that the sample contains alcohol and the result is positive, and if the color of dichromate dose not changed the result is negative and the sample dose not contains alcohol. The blood samples were examined by the measuring of GGT enzyme to confirm alcohol drinking. All of the sputum samples showed positive results by changing the color of dichromate. All of the beverages except barbican showed positive results this means that these beverages contain alcohol while barbican not. The values of GGT for volunteers were higher than the normal values which confirm the test of sputum.

Abstract

Photoaging is skin aging, caused by chronic exposure of ultraviolet radiation. Photoaging decreases patients’ quality of life because the skin was the outer organ seen by others. Ultraviolet radiation causes oxidative stress, that activated inhibitory kappa B kinase (IKK), increased nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB), matrix metalloproteinase (MMP), and degradation of collagen. Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) was the main green tea polyphenol and the main source of biologic activity of green tea. This study was an in silico study, aimed to obtain the effectiveness of EGCG component through molecular docking on IKK receptor (PDB ID: 5EBZ). The bioinformatics tools based on reverse docking used in this study, were Protein Data Bank, ChemDraw, Chem3D, and Molegro Virtual Docker software. Docking and binding site analysis showed, that EGCG was able to interact with IKK receptor. Rerank score of interaction between EGCG and IKK receptor was higher than that of arbutin and 5TL_701[A]. It showed that EGCG has higher potential in photoaging prevention than arbutin, as one of the agents in photoaging prevention. Pharmacokinetics and toxicity (ADMET) prediction in this in silico study were conducted using pkCSM On Line tool. The pkCSM results showed EGCG was predicted having good pharmacokinetics profile without toxicity effect.
