Abstract

Remdesivir and Favipiravir have been widely used as antiviral agents in treating COVID-19. However, studies providing head on comparison of treatment outcomes between the two antiviruses are rare. The aim of this study is to compare the treatment outcome of Remdesivir and Favipiravir in moderate symptoms COVID-19. Subjects were divided into two groups based on received antivirus during COVID-19 treatment in the hospital, Remdesivir group and Favipiravir group. Post-treatment outcome was measured with three indicators: symptom improvement, negative conversion of RT-PCR, and radiological improvement. Outcomes of both groups were compared with chi square test with Remdesivir serves as a risk factor and Favipiravir as control. Out of a total of 130 subjects, 65 received Remdesivir, and 65 received Favipiravir. Post-treatment RT-PCR and radiologic examination were performed on a median of Day-10 hospitalization. RT-PCR conversion to negative was significantly more likely in Remdesivir group (RR: 1,917, 95% Cl 1,044 – 3,518, p = 0.047, chi square test). There was no significant difference between Remdesivir group and Favipiravir group in symptom improvement on Day-5 (RR 0.941, 95% Cl 0.776 – 1,141), nor Day-7 (RR 1.020, 95% Cl 0.855 – 1.216). There was also no significant difference in radiological improvement (RR 0.855, 95% Cl 0.712 – 1.026). Administering remdesivir to COVID-19 patients significantly increased the occurrence of negative RT-PCR conversion after therapy compared to standard favipiravir therapy.

Abstract

Background: The prevalence of uterine anomalies is estimated from 3% to 5% in the general population. This report would like to discuss a case of successful pregnancy outcome at term delivery in patient with bicornuate uterus in district area of Indonesia Soe, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia.Case Report: A 30-year-old first gravida with 39 weeks of gestation coming for elective cesarean section due to primipara in breech pregnancy. There was baby girl born in 2,500 grams of birthweight. During exploration of uterus, both tubes and ovaries, there was found bicornuate uterus with a single common cervix. We found both kidneys in normal size, bicornuate uterus with thickening of endometrial line in left side and normal endometrial line in right side. We measured that the septum was 38 mm. Both mother and baby were healthy at discharge.Result: Bicornuate uterus is usually asymptomatic and diagnosed due to obstetrical complication or accidentally. Uterine abnormalities are increased risk of first and second-trimester loss of pregnancy, preterm delivery <28 weeks, low birth weight babies, and malpresentation at delivery. Imaging plays an essential role in diagnosis and management of bicornuate uterus. It is fundamental to educate a woman with this anomaly. Malpresentation with breech presentation is caused by uterine abnormality of bicornuate uterus.

Abstract

Background: Bipolar affective disorder is a mental disorder that is influenced by many factors, namely neurobiological factors and psychosocial factors. Due to these various factors, the outcome of bipolar affective disorder is different for each patient.Case report: One of the psychosocial factors that influence bipolar affective disorder is the presence of trauma in childhood and neglect. Trauma in childhood can be a precipitating factor in genetically predisposed individuals, triggering episodes of bipolar affective disorder as well as borderline personality disorder, also influencing the severity of symptoms and onset when the disorder first appearsResults:. The severity of bipolar symptoms is also greater in patients with a history of childhood trauma and neglect. This severity includes frequent suicidal ideation and the appearance of psychotic symptoms. Therefore, childhood trauma and neglect may be predictors of poor outcome in patients with bipolar affective disorder and the development of borderline personality disorder.

Abstract

Background: Retinal disorders are the fourth most common cause of blindness in Indonesia and one of them is retinal detachment. Vitrectomy with silicone oil (SO) tamponade is a popular technique for treating it. As a complication of using SO, intraocular pressure (IOP) can increase and usually returns to normal after evacuation of SO. However, in some conditions, such as emulsifying SO, can cause IOP to remain high even after SO evacuation has been carried out.Objective: To determine the comparison of intraocular pressure before and after evacuation of silicone oil in patients with a history of retinal detachment.Method: This study is a cross sectional with analytical reasearch. Secondary data was taken from the medical records of patients with a history of retinal detachment who underwent silicone oil evacuation performed at KMJA Jakarta Hospital.Result: 39 Respondents aged 23-69 years and 82% are male. The average length of use of SO is 9 months. It was found that the IOP decreased which was not significant in weeks 1-2 after evacuation of SO (p value 0.098) and also the increase in IOP was not significant in weeks 3-4 after evacuation of SO (p value 0.184).Conclusion: There is no significant difference in intraocular pressure before and after evacuation of silicone oil in patients with a history of retinal detachment

Abstract

Introduction: Drugs prescribing is the most important skill for physicians and is strictly regulated by the government. However, factors that contribute to the drug prescribing are not determined yet. The aim of this study is to identify the possible role of physician character in drug prescribing at primary health centers (PHC).Method: A cross-sectional study was purposely done over fourteen-days at PHCs of Tangerang Districts. All prescriptions (n=2410) registered in the PHC drug-alert system (CIDIA Database) were analyzed descriptively.Result: From 2410 prescriptions registered in the PHC drug alert system, 15% prescriptions were prescribed by male physicians and 85% by the females. During the study, there were 964 drugs prescribed by 6 male physicians, 161 drugs per physician in average. There were 5584 drugs prescribed by 12 female physicians, 465 drugs per physician on average. Female physicians tended to prescribe 4 or more drugs compared to its male counterpart at 14% (p=0.006). However, there was no significant difference of drug interactions observed in the prescriptions prescribed by male or female physicians (p>0.05).Discussion: We identified that physician characteristics including gender played a significant role in the drug prescribing process especially the number of drugs prescribed. Therefore, considering gender differences in prescribing drugs may help the PHCs to improve a better management in drug safety and to comply with the government prescribing regulation.

Abstract

Introduction: Prostate cancer is a well-recognized medical problem accounting for the most diagnosed type of cancer in men. The importance of early detection and its improved survival rate have motivated research on the best cancer detection method. Consequently, computer-aided diagnosis was introduced; however, more datasets are needed, and more testing and trials are required to reach a feasible and reliable diagnostic method. In this study, we use MRI T2 WI and ADC-map sequences to build a classifier to differentiate between clinically significant and insignificant prostate lesions. Material and Methods: Haralick’s first and second order statistical features were extracted from pathologically proven prostate lesions found in The Cancer Imaging Archive open data source. We used the WEKA platform for data analysis, including 152 lesions divided into 70% training set and 30% testing set. Results: The proposed classifier showed sensitivity, specificity, F-measure, and AUROC of 82.6%, 87%, 84.4%, and 92.6%, respectively. Conclusions: The proposed classifier does not require a high-end computer, outperforms many previous classifiers, and has the potential to discriminate clinically significant from insignificant prostate lesions.

Abstract

Background: Hajj is wukuf at Arafah, which distinguishes it from Umrah.. The Indonesian government as the hajj organizer is obliged to facilitate wukuf safaris for pilgrims who have physical limitations or suffer from illness with assistive devices. Meanwhile, study on Hajj Health during Wukuf at Arafat and its relation to the condition of the pilgrims who carry out Safari Wukuf is still very limited. Therefore, this study aims to describe the disease and sociodemographic factors in Wukuf safari pilgrims during the 1443H/2022M Hajj period.Method : This study was carried out as a descriptive study using secondary data from 1443H/2022M Hajj pilgrims in the SISKOHATKES application. This research includes  138 pilgrims who participated in wukuf safari. The data is processed using descriptive analysis. The ethical clearance was obtained from the UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta Ethical Committee (Number No.B-022/F12/KEPK/TL.00/04/2023).Result : This study included 138 pilgrims from 12 embarkation points, with the majority coming from East Java (27 respondents) and West Java (25 respondents). The elderly (60-70 years) made up 59.4% of respondents, and those from the first batch (arrived in Medina to Mecca) made up 65.2%. All respondents have comorbidities, with cardiovascular illness (77.5%) and endocrine diseases (73.2%) being the most common. Cardiovascular illnesses are found to be the most prevalent among pilgrims in this study.Conclusion : The pilgrims who undergo Safari Wukuf are those who have a comorbid. Most diseases are caused by cardiovascular and endocrine disorders in the elderly congregation (60-70 years) and on the departure of the first wave.

Abstract

Background: Musculoskeletal pain is a common complaint in men and women with a wide age range and in all sociocultural groups. Low back pain significantly contributes to the overall burden of musculoskeletal conditions. In 2020, low back pain (LBP) affected 619 million people globally and it is estimated that the number of cases will increase to 843 million cases by 2050, driven largely by population expansion and ageing.1 Hajj is a series of worship with high demands on physical strength, and musculoskeletal pain experienced by the pilgrims will significantly affect the worship and the pilgrims' classification of health, known as health istithaah. Objective: This study aims to determine the prevalence of low back pain incidence based on the age and gender of Indonesian pilgrims in periods 1438-1443 H. Methods: This descriptive study with a cross-sectional design used secondary data from Health Information System for Indonesian Hajj Pilgrims (SISKOHATKES) with a period of Hajj from 1438 H until 1443 H. Results: This study showed that the prevalence of Indonesian pilgrims in 1438-1443 H diagnosed with low back pain in Saudi Arabia based on age group was highest at 46 years and over each year. However, the prevalence of female sex was not consistently higher than male in 1438-1443 H. The percentage of the male sex (0.020%) was higher than the female sex (0.016%) in 1438 H, and the female sex was consistently higher than the male sex in 1439 – 1440 H, while in 1443 H, the male and female sexes had the same proportion. Conclusion: Indonesian pilgrims aged 46 years and over with a diagnosis of low back pain have a higher prevalence in each year of examination, and female and male pilgrims do not consistently have a higher prevalence value in the period 1439 - 1443 H

Abstract

Indonesia with the largest Muslim population causes the number of Muslims who registered to leave for the holy land to increase, including the number of elderly pilgrims in 1444 H/2023 M as many as 10,166 people from a total quota of 221,000 pilgrims.  The Indonesian Ministry of Religious Affairs issued several special policies related to elderly pilgrims. The program is outlined in the "Elderly Friendly Hajj Guide" which consists of several important things in providing services to elderly pilgrims both at the time of departure, while in the holy land, and when returning to the homeland. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach and secondary data, in the form of normative research through literature studies consisting of laws and regulations, books, journals, and presentation papers. Regulations related to elderly pilgrims have been stated in Law No. 8 of 2019 on the Implementation of Hajj and Umrah. However, existing laws and regulations have not specifically regulated services for elderly pilgrims, so special regulations are needed that regulate elderly pilgrims including elderly Hajj health services. The Indonesian Ministry of Health in supporting the Elderly Friendly Hajj policy seeks to improve health services to pilgrims, especially to elderly pilgrims. Policy changes related to health istithaah are needed to reduce the risk of morbidity and mortality of elderly pilgrims along with the increasing number of elderly pilgrims in the coming year.
