Abstract

Introduction: Dandy Walker malformation (DWM) is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by cerebellar vermis hypoplasia, posterior fossa expansion, and fourth ventricle enlargement, often associated with hydrocephalus and chromosomal abnormalities like Trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome). This case report describes the prenatal diagnosis and postnatal outcome of DWM in a multigravida patient. Case: A 43-year-old multigravida woman at 29–30 weeks’ gestation presented to Dr. Zainoel Abidin General Hospital with suspected fetal anomalies. Obstetric examination revealed a transverse fundal height of 23 cm, estimated fetal weight of 1,500 grams, fetal heart rate of 140 beats/min, and maternal hypertension (160/90 mmHg). Ultrasound identified DWM (absent cerebellar vermis, enlarged fourth ventricle), bilateral hydronephrosis, and undescended testes. The patient had a history of poorly controlled hypertension and reported owning a cat for one year but denied alcohol or smoking. Following counseling, pregnancy termination was performed, resulting in the delivery of a 1,400-gram male infant (length: 36 cm, Apgar score: 4–5). Postnatal phenotypic examination revealed undescended testes, low-set ears, overlapping digits, respiratory distress, small stature, and hypotonia. Karyotyping confirmed Trisomy 18. Conclusion: This case underscores the importance of prenatal ultrasound in detecting DWM and associated anomalies, enabling informed decision-making. The coexistence of DWM and Trisomy 18 highlights the need for genetic testing in such cases. Despite termination, the poor postnatal outcome reflects the severe prognosis of Trisomy 18. This report contributes to the limited literature on DWM in multigravida patients.

Abstract

Introduction: Wound healing involves complex interactions between cells and mediators that occur immediately after the wound occurs and depends on nutritional factors and wound closure. Snakehead murrel fish (Channa striata) extract has been extensively researched to speed up the wound healing process because of its high amino acid content. Patch tests were carried out to assess the allergen potential of the Channa striata extract biopolymer in the form of wound dressings. Methods: Experimental study of 40 subjects who had admit patch test with various consentration of Channa striata extract biopolymer. The patch test materials divided of 5 grups. They were aquadest solution, Eucheuma cottonii biopolymer, Channa striata extract biopolymer concentrations of 5.4 g/mL, 10.8 g/mL, and 21.6 g/mL. All subjects had been assessed for skin reactions that occured after 48 hours, 72 hours, and 96 hours. Results: A total of 40 subjects met the inclusion criteria and completed informed consent.  There was minimum allergen reaction (+) in slight subject in all grups except aquadest grup after 48 hours. The allergic reaction dissolve in 72 and 96 hours. An irritant reaction (IR) occurred in among all grups but indicated to the  hypafix plaster. Conclusion: Patch test containing biopolymer Channa striata extract showed a minimal allergic reaction

Abstract

Introduction: This study examines the correlation between Systemic Immune Inflammation Index (SII) and coronary lesion severity in Chronic Coronary Syndrome (CCS) patients using the SYNTAX score. Inflammatory markers, including neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), are associated with atherosclerosis and CAD. Methods: This retrospective observational study analyzed correlation between SII values and coronary lesion severity in CCS patients who underwent coronary angiography. Data were collected between June and August 2024. Patients were categorized based on the SYNTAX score, which evaluates coronary lesion severity. The study used statistical tests including mean tests, multivariate logistic regression, Spearman correlation, and ROC curve analysis to assess SII's sensitivity and specificity in predicting lesion severity. A p-value <0.05 was considered significant. Results: The study subjects were 115 samples with an average age of 59.41 ± 9.45, with 78 male samples (67,8%). It was found that the SII value has a strong correlation with the SYNTAX score, specifically with a mild SYNTAX score of 365.7 (183.45 - 853.91), a moderate SYNTAX score of 695.52 (534.83 - 1838.57), and a severe SYNTAX score of 1026.7 (413.57 - 3813.83; p value <0.001). Conclusion: The study found a significant relationship between SII value and coronary lesion severity, measured by SYNTAX score. Higher SII values were associated with more severe coronary lesions, suggesting SII can serve as an effective predictor of lesion severity in CCS patients.

Abstract

Introduction: Kidney transplantation is the standard treatment for end-stage renal disease (ESRD), significantly improving survival rates and quality of life. However, pulmonary complications are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality post-transplant. Case Report: This case report presents a 50-year-old male with chronic kidney disease (CKD), diagnosed five months prior and undergoing regular hemodialysis. He had a history of hypertension and diabetes mellitus. The patient underwent a 9-hour kidney transplant surgery without complications. Post-operatively, urine output was minimal (5 mL), prompting vasopressor support to elevate the mean arterial pressure above 150 mmHg, which improved renal function. On days one and two post-surgery, the patient developed respiratory distress, with a chest X-ray revealing pulmonary edema. Continuous furosemide infusion was initiated to manage fluid overload, leading to improvement in the patient’s respiratory status. By day four, the patient was stable and transferred from the ICU to a regular room. Pulmonary complications, including pulmonary edema, affect up to 80% of kidney transplant recipients in the first year post-transplant and contribute to high morbidity and mortality. Conclusion: This case emphasizes the importance of early recognition and management of pulmonary edema through fluid management and vasopressors. Timely intervention, including diuretic therapy, is crucial for stabilizing kidney transplant recipients and improving patient outcomes. The report highlights the need for further research to establish evidence-based guidelines for fluid management in kidney transplant patients. Effective management is essential for enhancing post-operative recovery and quality of life in transplant recipients.

Abstract

Introduction: Coronary artery calcium score (CACS) is a specific indicator of coronary atherosclerosis that plays a role in assessing the degree of calcification in atherosclerosis. Diastolic function is the first aspect of cardiac function to be impaired in ischemic heart disease. This study aims to determine the relationship between calcium scoring and diastolic dysfunction. Methods: This analytical observational study with cross-sectional design evaluated the relationship between coronary artery calcium score (CACS) and left ventricular diastolic function in patients with stable CAD. Data were collected retrospectively from medical records at RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan during Nov 2023-Nov 2024. CACS was assessed using coronary CT scan, while left ventricular diastolic function was measured by echocardiography. Data analysis used chi-square test, Mann-Whitney U test, and ROC curve analysis to evaluate CACS threshold in predicting diastolic dysfunction. Results: Among 158 analyzed samples, 113 patients had diastolic dysfunction. A calcium score ≥100 was found in 46.2% of patients, showing 1.318 times higher risk of diastolic dysfunction versus those with scores <100 (p = 0.006; 95% CI 1.083–1.605). ROC analysis showed CACS had moderate predictive ability for diastolic dysfunction with AUC of 0.647 (p = 0.004). A calcium score threshold of 45 had 65.5% sensitivity and 62.2% specificity in detecting diastolic dysfunction. Type 2 diabetes mellitus, urea, and creatinine levels were also significantly associated with diastolic dysfunction (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Calcium score shows a significant relationship with diastolic dysfunction in stable CAD patients and can predict diastolic dysfunction in patients undergoing coronary CT scan.
