Abstract

During the COVID-19 pandemic, online learning became an unavoidable impact. To adapt, students are increasingly using Personal Listening Devices (PLD) for their online learning needs. However, intensifying and frequent use of PLDs can increase the risk of noise-induced hearing loss, which happens due to noise causing a person's hearing threshold to increase by disrupting the hearing cells in their inner ear's organ of Corti. The objective of this research was to examine whether there exists a correlation between the PLD usage by medical students and their average high-frequency threshold and hearing loss incidence while they study online. A cross-sectional analytic observational design was employed in this study. The dataset was analyzed using Chi-square test. The results showed that the significance value (p value) of the student behavior with hearing threshold average was and hearing loss incidence as follows: the PLD usage (p=0.160, p=0.498); the length of PLD usage (p=0.452, p=0.071); the duration of PLD usage per day before the pandemic (p=0.895, p=0.309); the duration of PLD usage per day during the pandemic (p=0.957, p=0.428); the duration of PLD usage per week before the pandemic (p=0.764, p=0.796); the duration of PLD usage per week during the pandemic (p=0.811, p=0.942); the PLD volume (p=0.731, p=0.731); the time of PLD usage (p=0.812, p=0.092); the increased intensity of PLD usage (p=0.291, p=0.887); the PLD type (p=0.879, p=0.476); and PLD's noise reduction facilities (p=0.879, p=0.353). This study concludes that there is no influence of the PLD usage behavior among the medical students on high-frequency thresholds and hearing loss incidence during pandemic online learning. Abstrak Pada masa COVID-19, pembelajaran daring menjadi salah satu dampak yang tidak bisa dihindari. Salah satu bentuk adaptasi di kalangan mahasiswa adalah peningkatan penggunaan Personal Listening Device (PLD) untuk kebutuhan pembelajaran daring. Peningkatan   intensitas   dan   frekuensi   penggunaan PLD dapat   meningkatkan   risiko terjadinya noise induced hearing loss, yaitu gangguan pendengaran akibat bising dimana terjadi kenaikan ambang dengar seseorang akibat terganggunya sel-sel pendengaran pada organ Corti telinga dalam. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk membuktikan apakah terdapat pengaruh antara perilaku mahasiswa pendidikan dokter dalam menggunakan PLD dengan rata-rata ambang dengar frekuensi tinggi dan angka kejadian gangguan pendengaran selama pembelajaran daring. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah desain observasional analitik dengan pendekatan cross sectional. Analisis data dilakukan dengan uji Chi-square. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai signifikansi antara perilaku mahasiswa dengan rata-rata ambang dengar dan angka kejadian gangguan pendengaran adalah sebagai berikut : pemakaian PLD (p=0.160, p=0.498); lama penggunaan PLD (p=0.452, p=0.071); durasi penggunaan PLD per hari sebelum pandemi (p=0.895, p=0.309); durasi penggunaan PLD per hari saat pandemi (p=0.957, p=0.428); durasi penggunaan PLD per minggu sebelum pandemi (p=0.764, p=0.796); durasi penggunaan PLD per minggu saat pandemi (p=0.811, p=0.942); volume PLD (p=0.731, p=0.731); waktu penggunaan PLD (p=0.812, p=0.092); peningkatan intensitas penggunaan PLD (p=0.291, p=0.887); jenis PLD (p=0.879, p=0.476); dan fasilitas noise reduction pada PLD (p=0,879, p=0.353). Kesimpulan pada penelitian ini adalah perilaku mahasiswa kedokteran dalam memakai PLD tidak berpengaruh terhadap ambang dengar frekuensi tinggi dan angka kejadian gangguan pendengaran selama pembelajaran daring di masa pandemi. Kata Kunci: Perilaku penggunaan PLD, rata-rata ambang dengar frekuensi tinggi, noise induce hearing loss

Abstract

Breast cancer is a major global public health problem and the most common type of cancer. The incidence of cases in Indonesia was about 42.1 per 100.000 population in 2019. Multiple risk factors underlie breast cancer malignancy. However, breast volume has not yet been included as a risk factor for breast cancer. This study aims to analyze the association between breast volume and breast malignancy. This cross-sectional study obtains breast volume and BI-RADS score by performing a mammography assessment at Dr. Saiful Anwar General Hospital, Malang. The inclusion criteria were women aged > 40 years and excluded those who have mammography contraindications such as pregnancy and breastfeeding. The parameters for calculating breast volume were the width, height, and compression thickness. The malignancy determination was use the BI-RADS category. There was no significant association using the Kruskal-Wallis test (p = 0.273, p > 0.05). The conclusion is there was no association between breast volume and the risk of malignancy based on BI-RADS mammography.

Abstract

Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer suffered by women worldwide. The development and incidence of breast cancer is influenced by various risk factors, one of which is breast volume. The amount of breast volume is influenced by several factors such as genetics, demographics, reproduction, lifestyle, and Body Mass Index (BMI). This study aims to determine the relationship between Body Mass Index and breast volume of research subjects at RSUD Dr. Saiful Anwar Malang, East Java. This type of research is observational analytic with a cross-sectional study approach and analysis using Kruskal Wallis test, the Mann Whitney test, and Spearman correlation test. Based on the Kruskal Wallis test BMI-left breast volume, the sig value obtained was 0.020 (sig < 0.05) while in the analysis of BMI-right breast volume the sig value obtained was 0.083 (sig > 0.05). Follow-up analysis using the Mann-Whitney BMI test-left breast volume showed significant results in the normal-overweight (p=0.050) and normal-obese (p=0.007) BMI groups. While the BMI-volume analysis of the right breast showed significant results only in the normal-obese BMI group (p = 0.044). Spearman correlation test of BMI-left breast volume obtained sig = 0.000 and r = 0.603. While the Spearman test of BMI-right breast volume obtained sig = 0.004 and r = 0.511. This study concludes that there is a significant relationship between BMI and breast volume which is positive with a fairly strong correlation strength.

Abstract

Background: On December 31, 2019, a pneumonia outbreak in Wuhan, Hubei, China, was caused by a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARSCoV-2) or Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Severely ill COVID-19 patients must be either hospitalized or self-isolated, leading to physical stress from limited space for activities, less social engagement, and anxiety due to the illness. Sleep disorders are widespread among those in self-isolation, with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) being the most prevalent. External stressors contribute to the development of sleep and mental disorders in people with COVID-19. Objective: To assess the correlation between Obstructive Sleep Apnea and mental problems in COVID-19. Method: Utilized a case-control design with COVID-19 patients hospitalized as cases and persons without confirmed COVID-19 or hospitalization as controls. Result: 70 data points were utilized in this research. There was a significant difference in the risk of Obstructive Sleep Apnea across the groups (p=0.04, r= 5.176). On the other hand, there was no statistically significant difference in mental problems between the groups (p=0.22). Conclusion: A notable disparity among the groups was observed in Obstructive Sleep Apnea, but no significant variance was found in mental problems.

Abstract

Background: Cellulitis is a bacterial skin infection that can progress to serious complications, particularly in patients with multiple comorbidities. This case report discusses a 60-year-old male with cellulitis of the left cruris, accompanied by type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and obesity. Case Presentation: The patient presented with redness, swelling, warmth, and pain in the left lower limb, along with systemic symptoms such as fever and fatigue. His medical history revealed poorly controlled diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, exacerbated by obesity. Further assessment indicated inadequate health knowledge and unhealthy lifestyle habits, including poor dietary choices and a lack of physical activity. Laboratory findings showed elevated blood glucose levels, dyslipidemia, and markers of inflammation. The patient was treated with intravenous antibiotics, glycemic control therapy, antihypertensive medication, and supportive care. The role of the family is essential in supporting the success of long-term therapy. Discussion: Cellulitis in patients with multiple metabolic disorders poses a higher risk of complications, including recurrent infections, delayed wound healing, and sepsis. Poor health literacy and unhealthy lifestyle habits further contribute to disease progression. Comprehensive management involving antibiotic therapy, metabolic control, patient education, and lifestyle modifications is essential for improving clinical outcomes. Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of early diagnosis and a multidisciplinary approach to managing cellulitis in patients with multiple comorbidities. Addressing underlying risk factors, including inadequate health knowledge and unhealthy lifestyles, is crucial to preventing recurrence and complications.
