Abstract

Henoch-Schonlein Purpura (HSP) is systemic vasculitis in children, hallmark by inflammatory infiltration of polymonuclear leukocytes in small blood vessels, followed by IgA1 immune deposits. HSP prevalence is approximately 3-27 cases per 100,000 children. The inflammatory process in HSP causes an ischemia and hemorrhagic process characterized by non-thrombocytopenia purpura, arthralgia, gastrointestinal problems, and kidney impairment. This process is called leukocytoclastic vasculitis. A 10-year-old boy came to ER of Dr. Sayidiman Magetan Hospital presenting with diffuse abdominal pain and purpura skin lesions in body. The complaint started with a red rash on both legs, then progressively extended to both hands, thighs, and buttocks, and continued with severe abdominal discomfort, nausea, dizziness, fever, and the patient also experienced a brownish-black stool. The patient was diagnosed with Henoch-Schonlein purpura with gastrointestinal manifestations based on medical examination. The patient stayed for six days at the hospital, and the condition improved.

Abstract

Background: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is one of the infectious diseases that exist in Indonesia. Not only infects the lungs, but this virus can also infect other organs such as the kidneys. In addition, the process of viral infection causes cell hypermetabolism, which can increase the workload of the kidneys in excreting metabolic waste. In the end, the damage caused by the virus can cause Acute Kidney Injury (AKI). It is necessary to know the prevalence and characteristics of this event. Purposes: This study aims to provide an overview of AKI's prevalence and clinical features in COVID-19 patients. Methods: This was a descriptive study that used patient medical records for the period April-September 2021. The univariate analysis data showed a characteristic frequency distribution of age, gender, comorbidity, hospitalization duration, and urea creatinine rate. Results: The incoming samples based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria were 44 samples. In COVID-19 patients, complications of AKI were found in adults, as much as 68.2% of both men and women had a percentage of 50%, the most common comorbid was hypertension 30.8% with a hospitalization duration of 1-10 days 43.2% and an average increase in urea 79.68 mg/dL and creatinine average 2,859 mg/dL. Conclusion: Based on patient characteristics, the results showed that more COVID-19 patients with acute kidney injury complications occurred in adult patients, with no difference in prevalence between males and females, with comorbid hypertension and length of hospitalization less than ten days.

Abstract

Background: During pregnancy, there is an increase in maternal metabolism, which affects the growth of the fetus and fetal organs. Pregnant women who cannot meet nutritional needs can risk experiencing problems with poor nutritional status. This adversely affects the baby and the mother. One of the anthropometric measurements commonly used to assess pregnant women's nutritional status is measuring the Mid Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC). Pregnant women with MUAC interpretation less than 23.5 cm are said to be at risk of chronic energy deficiency (CED). Purposes: This study aimed to determine the relationship between the MUAC of pregnant women and the baby's body weight. Methods: The research methodology used analytical observational with a cross-sectional approach to the medical records of 104 mothers at the Taman Baca Health Center, Pembina Health Center, and Plaju Palembang Health Center. Data were collected by purposive sampling. Result: The results of this study showed that MUAC for pregnant women was more than equal to 23.5 cm as many as 86 (82,7%) respondents, while pregnant women of MUAC were less than 23.5 cm as many as 18 (17,3%) respondents. Analysis with Fisher's Exact Test with p-value=1,000. Conclusion: there was no meaningful relationship between the MUAC of pregnant women and the body weight of babies.

Abstract

Background: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an acute airway infection caused by coronavirus, and one of the comorbid diseases that can increase the severity and mortality of COVID-19 is diabetes mellitus. Purposes: To compare mortality rates in COVID-19 patients with type 2 DM and those without type 2 DM at Bunda Margonda General Hospital, Depok Jawa Barat. Methods: This study is a comparative study with a cross-sectional design obtained from secondary data in the form of medical record data at Bunda Margonda Depok Hospital in January-December 2021. The collection was carried out using the total sampling technique. Data were tested using the Cross Tabulation (crosstab) test. Results: Of the 144 COVID-19 patients, 56.9% of COVID-19 patients died with type 2 DM, while 43.1% died without type 2 DM comorbidity. Based on the comparison results of the mortality rate of COVID-19 patients accompanied by Type 2 DM and those not accompanied by Type 2 DM, the P value is 0.127, which means there was no relationship between mortality rate and Type 2 DM status. The mortality rate male gender is more likely to die in COVID-19 cases with an incidence of (53.5%), while in women (46.5%). Conclusion: Patients with comorbidities are more susceptible to Covid-19, and their symptoms are divided into mild, moderate, and severe. In patients with comorbid diabetes mellitus, there will be an increased occurrence of Covid-19 disease due to decreased immune function, resulting in a longer healing time in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Abstract

Background: Dermatophytosis is a superficial fungal infection caused by filamentous fungi that attack the keratinized tissue of the skin, nails, and hair. The clinical manifestations of dermatophytosis, in addition to depending on the source host factors, such as age, sex, and race, are significant epidemiological factors. However, the relationship of infection susceptibility remains unclear. Purposes: This study aimed to determine the relationship between age and sex and dermatophytosis incidence in Gianyar Regency. Methods: This study was observational with a cross-sectional design using 200 samples divided into 100 dermatophytosis patients and 100 non-dermatophytosis patients. Statistical analysis of the data used was a chi-square test with 95%CI. Results: The majority of patients with dermatophyte infections were 19 years old (74%), female (57%), and tinea corporis (36%). The chi-square test showed that there was a significant relationship between age and sex with the incidence of dermatophytosis (p = 0.025; OR = 1.978; 95% CI = 1.087-3.599 and p = 0.003; OR = 2.357; 95% CI = 1.334-4.162). Conclusion: It can be concluded that older age and female tend to suffer dermatophytosis.

Abstract

Background: Patients with diabetes mellitus have a higher risk of urinary tract infection (UTI) incidence than those without. One of the first-line therapy for UTI is nitrofurantoin. The emergence of drug-resistant UTIs is increasing both in community and healthcare setups. Purposes: Determine the nitrofurantoin susceptibility profile to bacteria causing UTI in diabetic patients. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Microscopic Laboratory, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Tanjungpura, Pontianak, from February to November 2019. The antibiotic susceptibility testing was performed by the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method on 22 bacterial isolates. The samples were collected on a sterile urine pot, cultured on agar, and identified by biochemistry test, and bacterial isolates were stored at 2-8oC. The bacterial isolates were sub-cultured 24h before the susceptibility test. The susceptibility testing used a 300 µg nitrofurantoin disk. The diameter of zone inhibition was measured and classified based on Clinical and Laboratory Standard Institute guidelines. Result: The results showed that Escherichia coli was 41.67% susceptible (5/12), Shigella sp. was 100% intermediate (1/1), and Enterobacter aerogenes (3/3), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (1/1), Klebsiella sp (1/1) were 100% resistant. Conclusion: The majority of the causative bacteria for UTI in diabetic patients are resistant to nitrofurantoin, suggesting the use of nitrofurantoin should be reconsidered as an empirical antibiotic in Pontianak. Further study using a larger population should be conducted to describe a more extensive antibiotic susceptibility profile of diabetic patients with UTI in Pontianak.
