Abstract

Introduction: Glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX1) is an important intracellular antioxidant that protects vascular tissue by reducing hydrogen peroxide and lipid hydroperoxides. Impaired GPX1 regulation may contribute to oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, and hypertension. Objective: This study evaluated peripheral blood GPX1 mRNA expression in hypertensive subjects compared with normotensive controls aged 50–60 years. Methods: A cross-sectional study included 60 participants, consisting of 30 hypertensive and 30 normotensive subjects selected purposively according to JNC VIII criteria. GPX1 mRNA expression was measured from venous blood using two-step RT-qPCR with GAPDH as the reference gene. Relative expression was calculated using the Livak method and compared using the Mann–Whitney test. Results and Discussion: PX1 expression was approximately 2.65-fold lower in hypertensive subjects, although the difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.165). Conclusion: Although GPX1 mRNA expression exhibited a marked decline in hypertensive subjects, establishing its diagnostic utility warrants further investigations quantifying total protein abundance and functional enzymatic activity.

Abstract

Introduction: Tuberculous meningitis in children may cause hydrocephalus and neurological disability despite treatment, while evidence on rehabilitation after ventriculoperitoneal shunting remains limited. Objective: To describe functional recovery following multidisciplinary neurorehabilitation in a child with tuberculous meningitis-associated hydrocephalus after ventriculoperitoneal shunting. Case Report: A case report was conducted in a 9-year-old boy with grade II tuberculous meningitis, communicating hydrocephalus, bilateral lower-limb weakness, and urinary retention. The rehabilitation program included progressive resistance exercise, transfer and mobility training, gait training, dressing training, and bladder management. Results and Discussion: Initially, lower-limb muscle strength was approximately 3/5, and the patient required wheelchair mobility and intermittent catheterization. Following rehabilitation, strength improved to 4/5, with progression to standing, walker-assisted ambulation, independent transfers, and spontaneous urination, allowing discontinuation of catheterization. Conclusions: Multidisciplinary, goal-directed neurorehabilitation combined with bladder management may support recovery of mobility, self-care, and urinary function in children with tuberculous meningitis-associated hydrocephalus after ventriculoperitoneal shunting

Abstract

Introduction: Low Back Pain (LBP) is a major global musculoskeletal condition that significantly impairs daily physical function and productivity. Assessing functional disability in clinical settings is essential for designing targeted rehabilitation strategies. Objective: To evaluate the functional disability profile and examine the clinical and physical characteristics of patients with Mechanical LBP. Methods: An observational cross-sectional study was conducted among 42 Mechanical LBP patients at the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinic of Sanjiwani General Hospital Gianyar. Demographic, anthropometric, and occupational data were collected. Functional disability was evaluated using the Indonesian version of the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). Data were analyzed using univariate descriptors, Pearson correlation, Spearman rank correlation, independent t-test, and Chi-square test. Results and Discussion: The mean ODI score was 19.81 ± 8.60, with the majority experiencing severe (40.5%) and moderate (35.7%) disability. A statistically significant moderate positive correlation was found between age and ODI score (r = 0.416, p = 0.006). No significant associations were observed between ODI scores and Body Mass Index (rs = -0.017, p = 0.914), gender (t = -1.437, p = 0.158), or occupation (p = 0.306). However, linear-by-linear association revealed a significant trend toward higher disability in heavy physical laborers (p = 0.021). Conclusion: Patients with LBP predominantly present with moderate-to-severe functional disability. Advanced age and heavy physical workload are key contributors to functional impairment, underscoring the need for age-tailored active rehabilitation and ergonomic intervention.

Abstract

Introduction: Pseudoephedrine is a sympathomimetic decongestant that may affect urinary function by increasing bladder outlet resistance. Objective: To synthesize clinical evidence on the effects of pseudoephedrine on urinary and voiding function in adults. Method: This systematic review was prospectively registered in PROSPERO (CRD420261485354). PubMed, Scopus, and ScienceDirect were searched on 19 August 2026. Eligible studies were original human studies of adults receiving systemic pseudoephedrine and reporting urinary or voiding outcomes. Findings were synthesized narratively because of clinical and methodological heterogeneity. Result and Discussion: Three prospective studies involving 387 participants were included. Overall, pseudoephedrine produced minimal changes in urinary function. In men, urinary symptom scores generally increased without significant overall deterioration. Men aged 50 years or older showed significant increases in total symptom scores, while higher baseline symptom severity was associated with greater deterioration and increased residual urine volume. In premenopausal women without urinary symptoms, short-term use did not significantly impair urodynamic or urethral neuromuscular parameters. Conclusions: Pseudoephedrine appears to have limited urinary effects in most adults, but older men and individuals with greater baseline urinary symptoms may require greater caution. Further studies are warranted

Abstract

Introduction: Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem characterized by impaired linear growth in children. Birth weight and breastfeeding history are important factors during the first 1,000 days of life and may influence subsequent child growth. Objective: This study aimed to describe birth weight and breastfeeding history among stunted children at Kramat Jati Regional General Hospital. Method: This descriptive retrospective study used medical record data from children aged 0–59 months treated between July 2024 and November 2025. A total of 55 children who met the inclusion criteria were selected using total sampling. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis to determine frequency and percentage distributions. Result and Discussion: Most stunted children had normal birth weight, accounting for 41 children (74.5%), while 14 children (25.5%) had low birth weight. Exclusive breastfeeding was reported in 37 children (67.3%), whereas 18 children (32.7%) did not receive exclusive breastfeeding. These findings indicate that stunting may occur despite normal birth weight and exclusive breastfeeding, suggesting that postnatal nutrition, recurrent infections, caregiving practices, and access to health services may also contribute to growth impairment. Conclusions: Stunting is multifactorial and requires comprehensive nutritional and health interventions throughout early childhood

Abstract

Introduction: Dysmenorrhea is menstrual pain commonly experienced by women of reproductive age and may interfere with daily activities, including the learning process. Menstrual pain can reduce concentration, comfort, motivation, and participation in academic activities, potentially affecting learning quality. Objective: This study aimed to determine the relationship between dysmenorrhea severity and learning quality among female medical students from the 2024 class at the Faculty of Medicine, Christian University of Indonesia. Method: This study employed a quantitative descriptive correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 105 female students were selected using the Slovin formula. Dysmenorrhea severity was measured using the Work Ability, Location, Intensity, Days of Pain, and Dysmenorrhea Score, while learning quality was assessed using a Guttman-scale questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the Spearman rank correlation test. Result and Discussion: Most respondents experienced moderate dysmenorrhea (58.1%) and impaired learning quality (83.8%). A statistically significant relationship was found between dysmenorrhea severity and learning quality (p = 0.042), with a weak negative correlation (r = -0.199), indicating that greater dysmenorrhea severity was associated with poorer learning quality. Conclusions: Dysmenorrhea severity is significantly associated with learning quality among female medical students from the 2024 class at the Faculty of Medicine, Christian University of Indonesia.
