Abstract

Scabies is a skin condition caused by Sarcoptes scabiei variant hominis infestation. Scabies risk factors include a person's education and attitude toward personal and environmental hygiene. This study aims to investigate the relationship between attitudes and knowledge of the behavior of scabies patients at PKU Muhammadiyah Delanggu Hospital. This is a cross-sectional analytic study. The participants in this study were scabies patients who examined themselves at PKU Muhammadiyah Delanggu Klaten Hospital between January and September 2023. The sequential sampling method was used to obtain a sample of 135 subjects. The Fisher exact test is used to analyze univariate and bivariate data. The majority of scabies patients were aged 10-19 years (30.4%), whereas the minority were aged 30-39 years (3.0%). Men 57.8% are more than women 42.2%. The majority of scabies diagnoses (68.1%) were obtained through auto anamnesis, and approximately half of the patients (50.4%) possessed three of the four cardinal symptoms used for scabies diagnosis. With a p-value of 0.546 (p>0.05), the Fisher exact test demonstrates that knowledge is not related to a patient's behavior. However, the attitude factors test showed a p-value of less than 0.001, indicating that attitudes affect how scabies patients behave at the PKU Muhammadiyah Delanggu Hospital's Dermatology and Venereology clinic in Klaten. The results of the research show that there was a significant relationship between attitudes, rather than knowledge, significantly predicting how scabies patients behave in the Dermatology & Venereology clinic of PKU Muhammadiyah Delanggu Hospital, Klaten.

Abstract

Febrile seizure is a seizure that occur when the body temperature increases and is caused by an extracranial process. There are several risk factors of febrile seizure, including hemoglobin level,-age,-and family history of febrile seizure. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between hemoglobin level, age, and family history of febrile seizure with the incidence of febrile seizure in 6-60 months children in Fatimah-Hospital-of Mother-and-Child-Lamongan. This study used a case-control design through retrospective approach based on data of children’s medical records in Fatimah-Hospital Lamongan from January-November 2021. The sample was selected by consecutive sampling method. Data analysis were using the chi-square test and continued with multiple logistic regression tests. The sample of this study was 80 children, consist of each 40 children as case and control group. Most of the febrile seizure occured in children with a low hemoglobin level (85%), in age of 6-24 months (82,4%), and have a family history of febrile seizure (65%). The result of the bivariate analysis showed that there was significant correlation between hemoglobin level (p = 0,022), age (p = 0,015),  and family history of febrile seizure (p = 0,000) with the incidence of febrile seizure. The result of the multivariate analysis showed that the most influential variable is family history of febrile seizure (OR=13,670). There was significant correlation between hemoglobin level,-age,-and family history of febrile seizure with the incidence of febrile seizure. Family history was the most influences factor for the incidence of febrile seizure.
Too “Big-Headed”, to Exit, a Massive Fetal Hydricephalus Causing Maternal Uterine Rupture. : Uterine Rupture After Delivery of Fetal Hydrocephalus Jihwaprani, Muhammad Candragupta; Ismirahmadani , Tiara Dinar; Kurniawan, Hendro

Abstract

Uterine rupture is an obstetric emergency, defined as a complete tear of all three layers of the uterus. It carries catastrophic maternal and fetal outcomes. While most commonly associated with previous cesarean deliveries or surgical obstetric-related procedures, it may very rarely be associated with abnormally high intrauterine pressure secondary to obstructed labor. Our center experienced a referred case of a spontaneous uterine rupture occurring after augmentation of labor and instrumental delivery of a hydrocephalic intrauterine fetal demise in an unbooked 29-year-old G4P3002 woman at 33 weeks’ gestation. She presented with acute hypotension and severe postpartum hemorrhage. Uterine rupture was diagnosed on clinical grounds. Early stabilization by maternal resuscitation and bleeding control was followed by an emergency total hysterectomy due to refractory hemorrhage. Our case depicted obstructed labor as a potential cause of uterine rupture and underpins the importance of routine antenatal care awareness which is still frequently overlooked in developing countries

Abstract

Sodium imbalance consists of hyponatremia and hypernatremia. Acute and severe hyponatremia and hypernatremia are life-threatening conditions. Rapid and slow correction should be considered for optimal outcomes, as aggressive management is often associated with the danger of demyelination and cerebral edema. This review aims to determine the safe management of sodium imbalance so that it is hoped that in overcoming critical conditions it does not transfer to other critical conditions that are equally fatal. The data search strategy uses the PubMed and Google Scholar databases between 2010 and 2022 with free full text that can be downloaded. The findings emphasize that acute and severe hyponatremia and hypernatremia are often life-threatening conditions. Management of these conditions requires caution, as aggressive correction in hyponatremia can result in osmotic demyelination, while hypernatremia can lead to cerebral edema. Despite theoretical risks, the study found no significant difference in 30-day mortality, seizures, cerebral edema, or decreased consciousness between fast and slow correction methods. The conclusion underscores the importance of tailored and cautious management strategies to mitigate the risks associated with sodium imbalance corrections.

Abstract

Covid-19 is an acute infection of the respiratory tract with a variety of clinical manifestations and severity. Lymphocyte count correlates to the severity of Covid-19. This study aims to find the relationship between lymphocyte count, mortality, and length of stay in COVID-19 patients. A retrospective cohort observational studies were conducted using medical records of confirmed COVID-19 patients in RSUP Dr. Sardjito Hospital between 1st January 2021 to 31st December 2021. The lymphocyte count cut-off point as a mortality factor was determined with the ROC curve and Youden’s index. Survival analysis was done using Kaplan Meier to investigate the relation of lymphocyte count to mortality and length of stay. The correlation between lymphocyte count and other factors affecting mortality and length of stay was analyzed with Cox regression. There were 217 subjects who fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The cut-off point of lymphocyte count was set at 1.06,103 cells/μL. A total of 121 subjects have a lymphocyte count of <1.06,103 cells/μl. Higher lymphocyte counts (≥1.06,103 cells/μl) showed a reduced risk of mortality (HR 0.570; 95% CI 0.403 – 0.807, p=0.002). The duration of hospitalization was shorter in the group of patients with lymphocyte count <1.06,103 cells/μL OR 0.802, 95% CI 1.032-2.646; p=0.110) with a median of 128.77 hours (12.84 – 983.99 hours), which might be explained by higher mortality (p = 0.000) in the low lymphocyte patients’ group (64.8%). Low lymphocytes <1.06,103 cells/μL in COVID-19 patients is independently and significantly associated with increased risk of mortality and insignificantly associated with shorter length of stay.

Abstract

Acute ear canal inflammation, or otitis externa, is brought on by bacterial, fungal, or viral infections. One of factor that cause inflammation of the outer ear is a change in the pH in the ear canal, which is usually normal or acidic. When the pH becomes alkaline, protection against infection decreases. Edema of the squamous epithelium can result from the picking habit's reduction of the protective layer. It can cause local trauma which causes bacteria to enter through the skin, inflate and cause exudate. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between ear picking habits and the incidence of otitis externa at Roemani Muhammadiyah Hospital. This study uses a cross-sectional design and observational analysis. Using a purposive sampling technique, samples of all ENT polyclinic patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria between January 2019 and December 2020 at Roemani Muhammadiyah Hospital in Semarang City, Central Java Province totaled roughly 36 individuals. The responders were asked to fill out a questionnaire. It has several questions that were utilized as study guidelines to gather research data and as note-taking tools. According to the findings, ear plucking and otitis externa were significantly correlated with a prevalence value of 0.000 <0.05. There is a significant relationship between the habit of picking the ears and otitis externa in ENT polyclinic patients, Roemani Muhammadiyah Hospital, Semarang.
