Abstract

Introduction: Cerebral infarction accompanied by brain edema is a life-threatening condition and requires decompression craniectomy to overcome increased intracranial pressure (ICP). Comprehensive post-operative management using non-invasive transcranial doppler (TCD) monitoring and Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) is a modality for conducting management in the intensive room (ICU). Case Report: We reported the case of a 56-year-old man diagnosed with cerebral edema due to stroke infarction of the right carotid system accompanied by comorbidities of coronary heart disease with a heart ejection fraction of 31.6% performed craniectomy decompression. The patient was treated for 12 days in intensive care and then transferred to a semi-intensive room Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of using TCD and NIRS in the intensive care unit as guiding therapies in maintaining patient blood pressure, administering blood components, and early detection of complications such as cerebral vasospasm.

Abstract

Introduction: Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is one of the most common autoimmune diseases affecting the peripheral nervous system in the world. This disease has manifestations of weakness, progressive muscle areflexia and can cause weakness in the respiratory muscles. This causes the patient to need mechanical ventilation assistance. Pneumonia is one of the most common complications of GBS. Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP) is one of the common nosocomial infections in 10-20% of patients on mechanical ventilators in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The crude mortality rate in patients who develop VAP ranges from 30-70%. In addition, VAP can significantly increase the duration of hospitalisation, as well as the cost of care. Increasing bacterial resistance in today's world makes it difficult to treat VAP with empirical antibiotic therapy. Case: A 44-year-old man came to the hospital with complaints of weakness in four limbs. The patient had previously been treated at another hospital with a diagnosis of GBS, because the patient's Erasmus GBS Respiratory Insufficiency Score (EGRIS) assessment was 5 and required further treatment in the ICU, the patient was referred to the main hospital. The complaint of being unable to move all four limbs was felt since 5 days before admission. The patient was admitted to the previous hospital for two days and received Mecobalamin, Gabapentin, and Ceftriaxone therapy. Conclusion: GBS is a post-infectious autoimmune disease that results in nerve cell destruction. Severe muscle weakness can lead to respiratory failure resulting in the need for mechanical ventilation therapy. Nosocomial pneumonia is a common complication in patients in critical condition and the leading cause of death from nosocomial infections, especially ventilator-associated pneumonia in intubated patients.

Abstract

Introduction: Coronary artery disease (CAD), results from reduced myocardial perfusion leading to angina, myocardial infarction (MI), and/or heart failure. It accounts for one third to one half of cardiovascular cases. A higher SYNTAX score indicates a more complex condition and poorer prognosis in patients undergoing coronary revascularization especially with PCI. This study aims to determine how the LDL/HDL ratio relates to the complexity of coronary lesions (Syntax Score) in coronary heart disease based on characteristics. Methods: The type of this study was observational analytic retrospective with a cross sectional design. The study was conducted using secondary data through medical record data of patients diagnosed with NSTEMI. Results: The subjects were 60 people with an average age of  58,1±8,629. It was found that the mean value of the LDL/HDL ratio was 3,95±3,837, in patients with an LDL/HDL ratio ≥ 2.517 it was found that there were 40 sample(66.7%) of whom had a lesion severity level of Syntax score ≥23 ,27 samples (45%), and in patients with an LDL/HDL ratio < 2.517, 20 samples (33.3%) were found to have a lesion severity level of Syntax score ≥ 23 with 4 samples (6.7%). Conclusion: There is a relationship between the LDL/HDL ratio and the severity of CAD based on the Syntax score with LDL/HDL ratio values being higher in patients with moderate-severe CAD than in patients with mild CAD.

Abstract

Introduction: Perforated peptic ulcer (PPU) is a life-threatening disease with historically reported high morbidity and mortality rates. The epidemiology of perforated peptic ulcer was appear to be stable in recent. The laparoscopy as primary operation has focused on safety to tread PPU. Case: A 75 years old man presented to our emergency center with generalized abdominal pain since 2 days before admision. Generalize abdominal pain develop suddenly and severe. Patient has history taking NSAID for 7 years to treat pain in the knee joint. He was complaining of chronic and recurrent upper abdominal for 5 year and relieved by food or antacids. He is smoker. After initial resuscitation by adequate administration intravenous lines of fluid and nasogastric tube, Patient underwent a laparocopik surgery, we perform prymari suture and a Graham patch.  We followed administration antibiotic and proton pump inhibitor. We perform the suturing to close the perforation site before peritoneal irrigation to avoid the accumulation of infected fluid and other debris. Once irrigation was complete, a large volume of omentum was reinforced above the primary suture site. Conclusion: We successfully managed perforated peptic ulcers with minimally invasive approach. Adequate resuscitation, hypotension in no longer be a significant prognostic indicator. In experienced hand laparoscopic is probably the most appropriate approach for perforated peptic ulcer. Because no upper abdominal incision is made, there I decreased post operative pain and decrease administration of post operative pain medication. The patient rapidly recovers with less complication.

Abstract

Introduction: Contrast induced acute renal injury is the third leading cause of hospital-acquired acute kidney injury, several protective treatments options have been developed among patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Our trial aimed to comparison between high dose rosuvastatin versus rosuvastatin plus N acetylcysteine to prevention of contrast induced acute kidney injury in patients undergoing elective PCI at Alshifa hospital in Gaza. Methods: Randomize control trial included 100 patients who undergoing elective PCI at Alshifa Hospital in Gaza, Group A (50 patients) patients received 40 mg rosuvastatin orally once daily for 3 days, on dose before undergoing PCI and two dose after PCI. Group B (50 patients) patients received 40 mg rosuvastatin orally once daily for 3 days, on dose before PCI and two dose after PCI plus N-acetylcysteine 1200 mg orally twice daily every 12 hours for two days, the first dose before PCI and other 3 doses after PCI. All patients were measuring serum creatinine level, creatinine clearance and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) before PCI and (2-3) days after procedure. Results: In Group A, nonsignificant reduction of serum creatinine level (P: 0.90), creatinine clearance (P: 40) but significant reduction BUN was seen after treatment (P: 0.017). In Group B, Significant reduction of serum creatinine level, and BUN (P< 0.001).  But creatinine clearance not significant changes were seen after treatment (P:0.72). On other hand comparison between two group was significant reduction of serum creatinine level (P: 0.046) in group B, but creatinine clearance and BUN were not significant (0.41, 0.34) respectively. Conclusion: High dose rosuvastatin plus N-acetylcysteine compared rosuvastatin had significant reduction only of creatinine level without reduction in BUN and creatinine clearance among patients undergoing PCI.

Abstract

Introduction: IMA-EST is still the main cause of morbidity and mortality in Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) and PPCI is still the main treatment method for IMA-EST patients. Even though PPCI has been undergone, patients are reported to still experience mortality and morbidity both in hospital and after discharged. The SYNTAX II score uses clinical, laboratory and anatomical parameters that are believed to be better than the GRACE score to predict mortality and morbidity. Method: This study is an observational analytic with a retrospective cohort design in STEMI patients who underwent PPCI at HAM General Hospital from January 2023 to June 2023. Patients who were diagnosed with STEMI and underwent with PPCI had their GRACE score and SYNTAX II score calculated and followed for 30 days. SYNTAX-II Score’s cut-off point, sensitivity and specificity as well as predictive possibilities in predicting adverse outcomes were determined. Then bivariate analysis was carried out on each SYNTAX-II Score and GRACE score. Results: The study subjects totaled 73 people with an average age of 56.05 ± 10.07 years. The incidence of MACE 30 days after treatment in our sample was 23.3%. It was found that the SYNTAX II score could well predict occurrence of MACE 30 days after treatment (cut off 33,75, AUC 0.861; 0.773 – 0.949; sensitivity 94.1%; specificity 69.6%, PPV 94.1% and NPV 67.6). The result of the bivariate analysis of the SYNTAX-II Score were: P < 0,0001; OR: 18,353; 95%; CI: 2,566 – 131,241and the results of the GRACE Score were: P < 0,006; OR 5,854; 95%; CI: 1,442 – 23,764. Conclusion: The SYNTAX II score is better to predict occurrence of MACE 30 days after treatment in STEMI patients who  undergoing PPCI compared to the GRACE score.

Abstract

Introduction: The MPV/Lymphocyte Ratio is a simple inflammatory parameter that can be obtained from a complete blood count. Hepatitis patients with liver cirrhosis have a higher MPV causing thrombopoietin to decrease so that the platelet count decreases. The inflammatory response can cause a decrease in the number of lymphocytes and is closely related to a poor prognosis in patients with hepatitis B virus. This study aims to examine the differences in the MPV/Lymphocyte ratio in chronic hepatitis B patients with and without liver cirrhosis. Methods: The samples for this study was chronic hepatitis B patients with and without liver cirrhosis who met he inclusion criteria. The research was carried out by taking blood samples from 94 patients treated in the internal medicine treatment room and Gastroenterohepatology polyclinic at Adam Malik Hospital, Medan. Samples were examined for MPV, absolute lymphocytes, then the MPV/lymphocyte ratio was calculated. Results: The total number of subjects in this study was 94 and there were 62 men and 32 women. The results of the analysis showed that there was a significant difference between the cirrhotic and non-cirrhotic groups (p = 0.001). Conclusion: There was a significant difference in the ratio of MPV/lymphocytes in the group of hepatitis B subjects with cirrhosis and in the group of hepatitis B subjects without liver cirrhosis. (p = 0.001).

Abstract

Introduction: Mandibular reconstruction is complex as there are multiple goals for the final outcome, with a main focus of returning form and function as close to baseline as possible. It may be challenging for ameloblastoma treatment which is focused on surgical resection with a wide margin of normal tissue because of its high propensity for regional invasion. Free vascularized bone flaps are widely recognized as the optimal reconstruction for this case and have been widely developed from the iliaca, scapula, or fibula. Methods: Using the PubMed and Google Scholar databases, we searched for reported cases of ameloblastoma published in the English-language literature. Results: We were able to retrieve 47 acceptable literatures and perform a comprehensive literature review, particularly those using microvascular composite free flaps, then compared iliaca, scapula, and fibula free flaps to identify optimal flap choice for mandibular reconstruction. In addition, we present an additional case of ameloblastoma affecting the anterior mandible in a 26-year-old male patient. Conclusion: Microsurgical techniques are now considered safe and reliable in reconstruction of the jaws by reestablishing the continuity and normal anatomy, aiding to restore the normal function of swallowing, mastication, and speech production. In our experience, free osteocutaneous fibula flap technique is a further confirmation of its potential in the reconstruction of hard and soft tissue in maxillofacial surgery.

Abstract

Introduction: Melasma is the most common pigmentation condition on the face due to excessive melanin production and release. The main predisposing factor for melasma is UV exposure. Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor (AhR) is a ligand-dependent transcription factor that regulates the expression of a very large number of target genes in humans. Facial hyperpigmentation is increased in people living in air-polluted areas with particulate matter2.5  (PM2.5) concentrations. Dioxin compounds contained in PM2.5  can activate AhR signaling. This study aims to determine the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) level based on age and clinical type of melasma. Methods: This study was an observational study with a cross-sectional design of 30 women with melasma at Prof. CPL Hospital. This study was conducted after obtaining ethical clearance from the Research Ethics Commission of the University of North Sumatra and has obtained permission from the research field of Prof. Chairuddin Panusunan Lubis Hospital. All subjects underwent history taking, physical examination, dermatological examination, and blood sampling to assess AhR levels by ELISA test. Data were analyzed with Chi square test to assess AhR levels based on age, and to assess AhR levels based on clinical type of melasma with Kruskal Wallis test. Results: This study shows that the majority of melasma age is 41-50 years with the highest mean AhR level is 882,61 ng/mL, while the lowest AhR level is in the age range of 20-30 years with a mean of 271,5 ng/mL. Chi square test showed that there was a significant relationship between AhR levels and age (p < 0,001). The highest mean AhR levels in melasma subjects were centrofacial type with a mean of 795,50 ng/mL, while the lowest mean AhR levels were found in melasma subjects with malar type with a mean of 623,36 ng/mL. The Kruskal Wallis test showed that there was no significant difference in AhR levels based on the clinical type of melasma (p = 0,930). Conclusion: That increased the age, the highest AhR levels. The highest average AhR level was centrofacial type of melasma. There was no significant difference in AhR levels based on the clinical type of melasma.

Abstract

Introduction: During acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), blood eosinophil count has the potential to predict treatment response. Nevertheless, there hasn't been enough research done to determine whether blood eosinophil numbers in a stable state can forecast an eosinophilic exacerbation. Methods: This study was a retrospective cohort analysis performed July-August 2022 to July-August 2023. Subject were 44 COPD patients who were treated at the outpatient clinic. Blood samples measured blood eosinophil levels. We determined an absolute cut-off point for blood eosinophil count at stable COPD in order to identify the rate of exacerbation. Results: Based on the Kruskal-Walli’s test, there was a significant relationship between blood eosinophils and the level of exacerbations in COPD patients (p value = 0.003). Conclusion: We established a relationship between the rate of exacerbation and blood eosinophil counts during stable COPD. The rate of exacerbation and eosinophil counts showed a strong positive relationship. Our findings should be confirmed by prospective and further research in different populations.
