Abstract

As one of the major complication of liver cirrhosis, portal hypertensive gastropathy (PHG) should be an interesting topic to study. Until now the exact mechanism on how this phenomenon happened is yet, not clear.1 The occurrence of PHG is quite high in patient liver cirrhosis and some relationship occurred between PHG and portal hypertension. In liver cirrhosis patients, PHG may be closely associated with hepatic vein pressure gradient(HVPG).2 However, PHG may not be directly associated with portal pressure because the mucosal damage not linearly correlated with portal hypertension, hence other mechanism involved in the etiopathogenesis of PHG. In this regards, the most important factor related to PHG is the pressure in the splanchnic vasculature. Based on histopathology study in PHG, vascular congestion resulted from increased portal pressure reduced oxygen for gastric mucosa, hence exposed mucosal layer to irritants.2 Moreover, the congestion somehow increased the production of nitric oxide, either through the shearstress locally or as the result of increase production of splanchnic vasculature due to portal hypertension.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB), one of the oldest diseases known to affect humans, is a major cause of death worldwide. TB is still a major problem in Indonesia. This disease, which is caused by bacteria of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis, usually affects the lungs, although other organs are involved in up to one- third of cases. Approximately 95% cases of TB and 98% death because of TB occur in developing country. Gastrointestinal tuberculosis is uncommon, making up 3.5% of extrapulmonary cases in the United States. This kind of TB may involve gastrointestinal tract, peritoneal, lymph nodes, or solid intraabdominal organs (viscera). A 17 years old male admitted to hospital with TB peritonitis presenting unusual clinical manifestation. At the first admission patients was diagnosed with acute pancreatitis based on elevation of amylase and lipase level up to 285 and 2,046 U/L and after finishing further examination, patients suffered from tuberculous peritonitis which based on literature manifested some gastrointestinal disorders. Diagnostic confirmation was accomplished by conducting serum-ascites albumin gradient (SAAG) of 1.1 g/dL, peritoneal thickening and the presence of ascites with fine mobile septations on ultrasound, positive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) TB from ascitic fluid. Patients received conventional antitubercular therapy for 12 months of rifampicin, isoniazid, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol. The addition of corticosteroids for the first two or three months of treatment may reduce the incidence of late complications arising from adhesive disease, such as small bowel obstruction.

Abstract

Peptic esophageal stricture secondary to gastroesophageal reflux is an important cause of esophageal stenosis and dysphagia. Symptoms of peptic strictures are usually insidious but progressive beginning with dysphagia to solids followed by dysphagia to liquids. It was estimated to occur in up to 20% of untreated patients, which has decreased significantly since the era of proton pump inhibitor therapy. The presence of esophageal reflux stricture is typically diagnosed by means of a barium esophagogram, although endoscopy may have both diagnostic and therapeutic value. Treatment usually involves dilation combined with acid- suppressive therapy. We reported a 43-year-old patient with complicated benign peptic stricture of the esophagus that finally underwent esophageal resection, a rarely therapeutic option.   Keywords: gastroesophageal reflux disease, benign peptic esophageal stricture, dysphagia, esophageal dilatation, surgical treatment

Abstract

ABSTRACTBackground: Studies on the characteristics CD4+ and CD8+ in hepatitis C and their correlation with the severity of the disease have been rarely conducted. This study was aimed to obtain the mean difference between CD4+ and CD8+ count in liver to evaluate their correlation with fibrosis and necroinflammatory grades in chronic hepatitis C. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted between March and July 2010 with 30 liver biopsies obtained from patients with non-B and non-HIV chronic hepatitis C who visited the Outpatient Clinic of Hepatology Unit at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital in January 2008–February 2010. Fibrosis and necroinflammatory grades were determined using METAVIR methods on liver biopsies. The mean values of CD4+ and CD8+ in portal tracts and hepatic lobules in liver biopsy specimens were evaluated. Statistical analysis was performed by using independent T-test and Spearman test. Results: There was a difference in mean CD4+ counts between portal tracts and the lobules (95% CI = 4.3-17.9; p = 0.002) and also differences in mean CD8+ counts in portal tracts and hepatic lobules (95% CI = 15.4-35.6; p 0.001). There was no correlation between CD4+ and CD8+ counts, either in portal tracts or the lobules, and inflammatory grades as well as the liver fibrosis. Conclusion: CD4+ and CD8+ counts are greater in portal area compared to the hepatic lobules, with greater CD8+ counts than CD4+. However, both CD4+ and CD8+ counts are not correlated to the severity of liver damage.  Keywords: CD4+, CD8+, intrahepatic, chronic hepatitis C, METAVIR

Abstract

Background: Obesity had become a global problem today. Obesity is a significant risk factor of cardiovascular and other metabolic diseases such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). It remains unclear if the increased mean platelet volume (MPV) at the steatosis state is practicable as early detection of the occurrence of fatty liver in individuals with central obesity. This study aims to determine the association of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and MPV levels in central obesity with or without NAFLD.Method: This study was descriptive-analytic with a cross-sectional approach conducted in Prof. dr. R. D. Kandou Manado general hospital from May to July 2018. Consecutive sampling was performed based on inclusion criteria, then IL-6, MPV, and abdominal ultrasound examinations were performed.Results: This study included 40 samples of men with central obesity, 28 people (70%) among them were diagnosed with NAFLD. The Fisher exact test showed an association between NAFLD and an increase in IL-6 (p = 0.039), also between MPV and NAFLD (p=0.015). Pearson correlation test showed there was no significant correlation between IL-6 and MPV in the NAFLD sample group (p = 0.084; r -0.332) and in the non-NAFLD sample group (p = 0.564; r -0.186).Conclusion: Elevated MPV and IL-6 values may be used as marker for NAFLD presence among central obesity patients.

Abstract

Helicobacter pylori colonizes the stomach of man, especially during childhood. However, H. pylori strains are not created equal, with major differences in virulence factors such as the vacuolating cytotoxin A and the cytotoxic-associated gene A, probably accounting for different clinical symptoms. The majority of infected subjects remain asymptomatic. Symptoms are aspecific. Helicobacter pylori infection is correlated with socioeconomic conditions and hygienic circumstances, resulting in an extremely high prevalence in children in developing countries. The golden standard technique to diagnose Helicobacter infection is culture of gastric biopsies; specificity and sensitivity of serology are low during childhood. Carbon-13 urea breath tests are a useful in the diagnosis but especially during follow-up. Recommended treatment consists of proton pump inhibitors in combination with two antibiotics out of amoxycillin, clarithromycin and metronidazole. The importance or clinical relevance of Helicobacter infection in asymptomatic individuals remains to be determined.Key words: Helicobacter pylori, gastritis

Abstract

Infants react sensible to dietary changes because the gut physiology and functionality is not fully mature. The first few months of life is the 'window of opportunity' for optimal physical growth and development, cognitivedevelopment, and emotional and social development. Exclusive breastfeeding is recommended for the first 6 months of life. Breast milk is important for the maturation of the infant’s digestive system. Potentially protectivefactors are present in higher amounts in feces from breast-fed infant than from formula-fed infants. The amount of intestinal bifidobacteria in breastfed infants is higher than in formula-fed babies. Mother's milk protects againstinfection because it contains different factors with immologic properties. The differences in protein fractions between human and cow milk are impressive. The human milk oligosaccharides are the third most important nutritional component are fermented in the colon, making the environment in the colon suitable for the growth of bifidobacteria and lactobacillus.

Abstract

Background: Amebiasis affects more than 50 million people each year, resulting in 100,000 deaths. Entamoeba histolytica (E. histolytica) is clearly pathogenic causing intestinal infection that varies from asymptomatic to fulminant colitis. Appropriate diagnosis and treatment of amebiasis in children is important to avoid serious complication, such as hepatic abscesses. Bloody diarrhea is a classic symptom, which is often used as screening for intestinal amebiasis. This study aimed to know the prevalence of intestinal amebiasis and other clinical and laboratory characteristics in children with bloody diarrhea who visited Harapan Kita Women and Children Hospital, Jakarta. Method: This was a retrospective descriptive study. Data was obtained by evaluating medical records at Harapan Kita Women and Children Hospital Jakarta, from January 2009 to December 2010. The data included age, sex, morphology of E. histolytica, blood hemoglobin level and leukocyte count, as well as fecal leukocytes and erythrocytes. Diagnosis was confirmed by finding trophozoites in 3 consecutive stool specimens. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS program. Results: Trophozoite forms were found in 58/889 (6.5%) children with bloody diarrhea. There were 40 (58.8%) boys, and 27 (39.7%) children were ≤ 1 years old. Fourteen (20.6%) children had anemia, 49 (72.1%) children had fecal leukocytes 10 and 51 (75%) children had fecal erythrocytes 5; however, only 21 (30.9%) children with blood leukocytes count 14,000 u/L. Conclusion: Intestinal amebiasis is common in children with bloody diarrhea, especially infants. Increased fecal leukocytes and erythrocytes are often found in intestinal amebiasis; however, blood leukocyte count may not increase. Keywords: children, intestinal tract, amebiasis
