Abstract

Hypertension in the pediatric population is a serious health problem that needs attention. Although the incidence is not as high as in adults, pediatric hypertension can increase the risk of cardiovascular and kidney disease later in life. This article aims to review the definition, epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and management of pediatric hypertension. The causes of hypertension in the pediatric population can be divided into primary hypertension, which is generally associated with obesity and metabolic syndrome, and secondary hypertension, which is most often caused by kidney disorders. The diagnosis of pediatric hypertension is established through history taking, physical examination, and investigations. Management of pediatric hypertension includes lifestyle modifications and administration of antihypertensive drugs, depending on the severity and presence of target organ damage. Regular blood pressure checks after the age of 3 years are important so that pediatric hypertension can be detected and treated early to prevent long-term complications.

Abstract

Plant extracts have become an intriguing subject of research in the search for effectiveantimicrobial agents against Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA), which is a global health issue due to its resistance to various antibiotics. Several studies have shown that compounds such as alkaloids and polyphenols in plants are responsible for their antimicrobial properties. Extracts from plants such as Azadirachta indica, Psidium guajava, and Rhamnus californica have demonstrated antibacterial activity against MRSA. Other research indicates that compounds like Psorothatin C from Psorothamnus fremontii are also effective against MRSA. The main challenge in managing MRSA infections is resistance to conventional antibiotics like vancomycin. Therefore, further research on plant extracts and synthetic compounds with antimicrobial activity against MRSA could provide significant contributions to the development of new therapies. Approaches involving the combination of plant extracts with conventional antibiotics also show potential in enhancing treatment effectiveness. A deep understanding of the mechanisms of action of these plant extracts is crucial for developing effective treatment strategies, and with further research, plant extracts could become an important alternative in addressing MRSA infections that are resistant to antibiotics.

Abstract

Death is the cessation of function of the circulatory system and respiratory system, or brain stem death has occurred. Decomposition is natural process that occur shortly after death. The main bacteria involved in the decomposition process is Clostridium perfringens. The process of decomposition sometimes need to be inhibited by the preservation bodies. Preserving the corpse is a medical procedure for the provision of certain chemicals such as formalin or can used a broad spectrum antibiotic chloramphenicol and erytromicine. This study aims to test the effectiveness of various doses of chloramphenicol, erytromicine and formaline in inhibiting the growth of Clostridium perfringens. This was an experimental study with post test only and contol group design. The treatment of various doses of chloramphenicol 0,25 µg/ml, 0,5 µg/ml, 1 µg/ml, 2 µg/ml, and 4 µg/ml; Erythromycin doses were 0,2 µg/mL, 0,4 µg/mL, 0,8 µg/mL, 1,6 µg/mL, and 3,2 µg/mL and formalin was given at 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, and 10% in liquid medium Nutrient Broth. Incubated for 24 hours at 37 ° C, and then planted in agar plate wiith spread plate method to determine the growth of bacteria. Bacterial growth was calculated by colony counter, then the percentage inhibition was determined. Data were analyzed using parametric tests One Way Annova and Post Hoc Test. The effective concentration was determined by Minimum Inhibitory Concentration 50 (MIC50). Data were analyzed using One Way Annova test, showed p value=0,009 (p<0,05) which meant that there were significant difference between the number of colony inhibition with number of doses given to C. perfringens, and the results of Post Hoc Test concentration of formaldehyde 10% and 8% had the lowest number of colonies or has the ability to inhibit the growth of c. perfringens bacteria most of 80% and 63%, so it can be said to be effective concentration (MIC50) at 8% formalin treatment with inhibition of growth of 63%.

Abstract

Angiosarcoma is a type of soft tissue cancer originating from blood vessel endothelial cells that is rare and very aggressive. Angiosarcoma has a poor prognosis with low survival rates. There is no standard management that can be used as a guide for treatment, making it a challenge for the treating team. This case report aims to examine further the clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment of pyloric angiosarcoma. We report a case of a 55 year old woman with complaints of black stools, accompanied by hard and difficult bowel movements, upper left abdominal pain and heartburn that felt all the way to the back, a bloated stomach, weight loss, and appetite. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy examination showed a mass in the gastric antrum. Abdominal CT scan with contrast shows a mass with centripetal filling enhancement that is attached and difficult to separate from the pyloric structures of the stomach. Laparotomy, excision of the tumor mass and pyloric resection, duodenal gastric anastomosis were performed in this patient. Anatomical pathology examination gave results of angiosarcoma.

Abstract

Malaria is one of the deadliest infectious diseases in the world. It is caused by the parasite Plasmodium spp. and transmitted through the bites of female Anopheles mosquitoes. This disease remains a significant global health problem, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions. Approximately 41% of the world's population is at risk of malaria infection. Artemisinin-based Combination Therapy (ACT) remains the gold standard for malaria treatment, but resistance is beginning to develop, necessitating alternative treatments from natural sources found in plants. Parijoto (M. speciosa) is an exotic fruit native to Indonesia that grows abundantly in mountainous areas. The fruit has been widely used by local communities to treat various ailments, including mouth ulcers, inflammation, and diarrhea. Numerous studies have been conducted to prove the effectiveness of this plant's fruit as an alternative natural remedy. This study aims to investigate the potential of parijoto fruit (M. speciosa) as an antimalarial agent. The method used is a literature review with a Systematic Literature Review design. Articles were sourced from the Google Scholar database, including both national and international journal articles. Based on the research findings, parijoto fruit has been proven to contain bioactive compounds, including phenolics, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, alkaloids, cardenolides, and glycosides. These secondary metabolite compounds in the plant have been shown to possess antioxidant, antidiabetic, antimicrobial, anticancer, and other beneficial activities. It is hoped that the secondary metabolite compounds contained in parijoto fruit (M. speciosa) have the potential to serve as antimalarial agents.
