Abstract

Jaundice commonly occurs in severe malaria, seen in approximately 2,5% patients with falciparum malaria infection. Jaundice in malaria can be caused by intravascular hemolysis, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) or malaria-related liver disorders. Malaria hepatopathy is a term that is often used to describe hepatocytic dysfunction in severe malaria, although inflammation does not occur in the liver parenchyma.  Malaria hepatopathy also characterized by a rise in serum bilirubin along with the rise in serum glutamate pyruvate trasnaminase levels. This two condition are similar but must be distinguished because of different treatment required.

Abstract

Background: The knowledge of CRC and its screening methods of healthcare workers is the bedrock of CRC early detection particularly in countries lacking national screening programs. Unknown factors influencing colorectal cancer early detection program implementation. We aimed to evaluate the knowledge and attitudes of primary health care (PHC) provider regarding CRC screening and identify the barriers associated with the screening plan.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among PHC physicians and nurses in public primary health care centers in Bali, Indonesia. A 44-item self-administered questionnaire was used to assess the knowledge, attitude and practice of CRC screening. The questionnaire was spread using google form. Results: Two hundred and five respondents have participated in this study. The average duration of doing practice in PHC is 6.6 years. In knowledge of CRC, 50.2% of them have good knowledge, and there is no difference between PCPs vs nurses (51.9% vs 47.3%; p=0.53). In attitude toward CRC screening, 58.5% out of the have good attitude, and there is no difference between PCPs vs nurses (60.3% vs 55.4%; p=0.50). The barriers of the screening was divided into two areas, a barrier from the health care system and patients. There was no association between knowledge and attitude towards CRC screening (p=0.63).Conclusion: The majority of health workers' knowledge and attitudes toward CRC screening were in the "good" category. The patient's fear of being diagnosed with cancer, as well as the patient's fear and anxiety of screening tests, is the most significant barrier to colorectal cancer screening.

Abstract

Portal hypertension (PH) is still a big challenge in clinical practice, where the presence of esophageal varices (EV) is the most common complication found in liver cirrhosis (LC) patients. The progression of PH condition in LC patients would lead to decompensated stage with more complications, such as variceal bleeding, the presence of ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, and hepatorenal syndrome.[1,2] Bleeding of EV (BEV) is a critical clinical which carry high mortality. Therefore, not only early detection and how the PH condition can be diagnosed well, but also how we can manage to prevent its complication, especially for primary as well as secondary BEV prophylaxis.[3]

Abstract

Background: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is characterized with acid reflux, therefore may lead to esophagitis. Acid reflux may cause night symptom of GERD, therefore resulting in decreased sleep and life quality. Gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaire (GERDQ) is a simple and validated questionnaire for diagnosing GERD. This article aims to investigate association between esophagitis severity and GERDQ score, sleep, life quality among GERD patients at Prof. Dr. R.D. Kandou Hospital.Method: An analytic-cross-sectional study was conducted in gastroenterology clinic of Prof. Dr. R.D. Kandou Hospital between May–June 2021. We included all patients with reflux esophagitis that proven by esophagoduodenoscopy and the severity was graded using Los-Angeles criteria. The GERDQ score was calculated in all patients. The analysis of sleep and life quality was assessed using validated Indonesian version of Pittsburgh-Sleep-Quality-Index (PSQI) and WHO-quality-of-life-BREF (WHOQOLBREF) questionnaire. Independent T-test was used to compare GERDQ, PSQI, WHOQOLBREF score with esophagitis severity degree.Results: Among 30 patients with esophagitis, 70% was male. We found 22 patients with Los-Angeles-grade-A and 8 patients with Los-Angeles-grade-B. The analysis showed no significant different between GERDQ score with esophagitis grade (p = 0.753). There was no association between esophagitis grade with sleep quality (p = 0.125), physical health (p = 0.161), psychological health (p = 0.728), and environmental health (p = 0.133). But we found significant association between esophagitis grade with social relationship life quality (p = 0.028).Conclusion: Patients with higher esophagitis degree had lower social relationship, but not associated with another domain of WHOQOLBREF, sleep quality, and GERDQ score.

Abstract

Background: No drug with a liver antifibrotic effect for treating non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has been approved. Physalis angulata Linn., better known to Indonesian as ciplukan, has natural abilities in various metabolic and inflammatory diseases. This study aims to determine the effect of ethyl acetate fraction of P. angulata in the NAFLD rat model by examining alanine aminotransferase (ALT), cholesterol levels, and liver histopathological features, which are methods to evaluate the course of the disease and the potential antifibrotic effect.Method: This research is an in vivo study on male Wistar rats conducted at the Animal Laboratory, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Padjadjaran, from September to November 2020. Rats were grouped randomly into seven groups of 5 each. The NAFLD models were created by giving a diet containing 20% margarine for four weeks. The intervention groups were given vitamin E, ethyl acetate fraction of P. angulata, and both combinations. The statistical analysis examined differences in each group based on their histopathological features, ALT, and cholesterol levels.Results: Histopathological results in the group given P. angulata at a dose of 0.32 mg resembled normal liver, and the ALT level was similar to vitamin E. The administration of P. angulata at 0.16 mg dose improved cholesterol levels.Conclusions: P. angulata ethyl acetate fraction at a dose of 0.32 mg improved the histopathological and serum ALT levels in the NAFLD rat model, which could be the basis for the mechanism of P. angulata's antifibrotic ability in NAFLD conditions.

Abstract

Background: The inflammatory process of ulcerative colitis (UC) involves eosinophils. Eosinophils are not only related to the severity of UC but also to clinical improvement. The role of eosinophils in colonic mucosa has not been fully understood. This study aims to determine the correlation between the density of eosinophils in the colonic mucosa and the severity of ulcerative colitis.Method: This is a prospective cross-sectional study with consecutive sampling between August 2020 and July 2021. The subjects were UC inpatients/outpatients at Dr. Sardjito Hospital who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The number and location of the biopsies are determined based on a colonoscopy performed by a Gastroenterology-Hepatology Consultant. An Anatomic Pathology Specialist examined the eosinophil colonic tissue. The severity of UC was classified using the Truelove Witts score. Data analysis using a computer program with a p-value 0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results: There are 3 UC severity categories according to the Truelove Witts score: 22 mild (45.8%), 9 moderate (18.8%), and 17 severe (35.4%). Seven participants (14.6%) had eosinophilia, with a median eosinophilia score of 203.33 cells/microL (0–1470 cells/microL). Five participants (10.4%) with colonic mucosal eosinophilia, with a median value of 14.13 cells/HPF (0–172 cells/HPF). The density of colonic mucosal eosinophils and the severity of UC had a moderate connection (r = 0.396; p = 0.005).Conclusion: There is a significant correlation between the density of eosinophils in the colonic mucosa and the severity of UC.

Abstract

Gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) is an uncommon but serious problem caused by benign causes. The incidence of GOO caused by peptic ulcer disease (PUD) is decreasing due to successful Helicobacter pylori treatment. Hence, these aggressive cases are rare. We present a case of a man who experienced intermittent abdominal pain and constipation for a week but acutely worsened in the last five days. He complained of intractable nausea and vomiting, leading to intolerable oral intake. Physical examination revealed abdominal distention, tenderness in epigastrium and right hypochondrium, and hypoactive bowel sounds. Laboratory results revealed leukocytosis with neutrophilia. Gastroscopy showed erosive esophagitis, pangastritis, and large duodenal ulcer causing stricture of duodenum pars I. An open distal gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y reconstruction, and fundoplication was then performed. The patient’s general condition improved after ninth day of care and was discharge on the eleventh day of care. PUD is a major cause of GOO, but incidence has decreased to 5% with the use of proton pump inhibitors. If the distal stomach or duodenum is significantly obstructed, GOO should be considered. The gold standard for diagnosis is endoscopy. Initially, conservative and supportive therapy should be done followed by endoscopic treatment in appropriate cases. If there is no improvement, surgical interventions should be done. This case demonstrated the need for definitive invasive procedures in the intervention of GOO caused by PUD. When conservative measures fail, this case also adds support to the direct anatomic treatment of duodenal strictures.

Abstract

Background: Several studies showed contrasting associations between Helicobacter pylori infection and organic gastric disorders. We aim to determine the association between H. pylori infection and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), gastric polyp, and gastric cancer in an Indonesian national referral hospital.Method: Data collected from patients referred to Cipto Mangunkusumo General National Hospital, Jakarta, Indonesia, from 2010 to 2021, with complete H. pylori test and endoscopy from electronic medical record. Chi-square analysis and logistic regression were performed to determine the association with a significant p-value of 0.05.Results: Three hundred and fourteen consecutive patients were enrolled, with a median age of 51.0 (16‒85), and 131 (41.7%) of them were males. The prevalence of H. pylori infection in organic gastric disease was 7.6% (n = 24) with 0.3% (n = 1) of them has gastric cancer, 3.2% gastric polyp (n = 10), and 4.1% (n = 13) GERD. A proven association between H. pylori infection and GERD was observed (RR = 26.42; 95% CI: 76.12‒114.05; p = 0.000) and esophagitis (RR = 2.44; 95% CI: 1.71‒3.49; p = 0.000). However, no significant association was found between H. pylori infection and gastric cancer (RR = 4.07; 95% CI: 0.26‒64.09; p = 0.28), and gastric polyp (RR = 1.16; 95% CI: 0.61‒2.22; p = 0.65).Conclusion: Our study suggested association of H. pylori infection in GERD and oesophagitis patients. Insignificant association was observed between H. pylori infection and gastric cancer, and gastric polyp.Keywords: Helicobacter pylori, esophagitis, GERD, gastric polyps, gastric cancer

Abstract

Aim: This evidence-based case report aims to determine whether the surgical shunt is better than the trans-jugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) to prevent re-bleeding in patients with portal hypertension due to liver cirrhosis.  Method: Literature searching was performed in 4 online databases, Cochrane, PubMed, Embase, and SCOPUS. Three meta-analyses were appraised critically.Results: Of all meta-analyses included, the internal validities were poor and only included a small number of trials. However, the results show that surgical shunt is better for preventing variceal re-bleeding with varied heterogeneities.Conclusion: Surgical shunts may have benefits over TIPS in preventing variceal re-bleeding.

Abstract

Gastrointestinal dysmotility in systemic sclerosis occurs as the end result of extensive fibrosis of the gastrointestinal tract. The entire length of the tract from the esophagus to the anorectum could be affected, exerting various gastrointestinal symptoms. Clinical manifestations attributed to gastrointestinal dysmotility are associated with significant distress and an increased risk of nutritional impairment, reducing the the quality of life of systemic sclerosis patients. One of the most commonly overlooked gastrointestinal implications in systemic sclerosis is malnutrition. Once malnutrition ensues in the course of systemic sclerosis, the detrimental effects attributed to nutritional decline are difficult to reverse and pose an increased risk of mortality. Adequate management through timely diagnosis of gastrointestinal dysmotility and utilization of malnutrition screening tools for systemic sclerosis patients could prevent the progression to malnutrition and its negative impacts.
