Abstract

Background: Hearing tolerance is impaired in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), which can affect social and academic functioning. This study aims to describe the clinical profile of hearing impairments in children with ASD and determine the prevalence of such impairments. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Academic Hospital UGM on pediatric ASD patients aged 18 months to 12 years who underwent hearing exams like BERA (brain-evoked response auditory) and/or audiometry. ASD severity was assessed using the Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS) and a questionnaire on demographics and comorbidities, followed by BERA tests. Results:  A total of 41 ASD children were obtained, with 31 children (76%) being boys and an average diagnosis age of 3.3 years (±1.3 SD). Hearing loss was suffered by 4 children (10%) and 37 children (90%) did not experience hearing loss. Sound sensitivity and degree of ASD correlated with head banging (p=0.01), and male gender correlated with hearing loss (P=0.006). CARS score was statistically associated with sound sensitivity (p=0.041) and degree of ASD (<0.001). Conclusion: Children diagnosed with ASD face an increased susceptibility to communication impairments which can be attributed to hearing impairments. This issue warrants particular attention in the context of ASD, highlighting the necessity for thorough screening of hearing capabilities.

Abstract

Background: One of the main ways to treat lung cancer is through chemotherapy regimens. Due to the complexity of lung cancer pathophysiology, the variability of chemotherapy given tends to cause drug interactions and toxicity in patients.Objective: Based on this, this study aims to determine the characteristics of lung cancer patients and identify chemotherapy administration patterns based on the NCCN therapy guidelines, identify interactions and side effects of chemotherapy that occur in patients diagnosed with lung cancer who are undergoing outpatient therapy at the Universitas Gadjah Mada Academic Hospital.Method: This research was carried out with a case-series design, namely by conducting a study using descriptive methods that provide an overview of patient characteristics, chemotherapy regimen patterns and their conformity to NCCN guidelines, potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs), and the incidence of side effects experienced by patients. Data was collected retrospectively through medical records of lung cancer patients undergoing outpatient treatment in the period April 2022 – April 2023 who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria.Result: There were a total of 27 patients in this study with patient characteristics predominantly in the elderly age range (> 60 years), 18 patients (66.7%), with exon 19 mutation NSCLC lung cancer type (n = 13; 92.6%), stage IV (n = 25 ; 92.6%), as well as non-smoking patients (n = 15 ; 55.6%). Chemotherapy regimen patterns at Gadjah Mada University Academic Hospital for lung cancer patients included afatinib (n = 14; 51.9%), gefitinib (n = 12; 44.4%), and cisplatin pemetrexed (n = 1; 3.7 %) with conformity reaching 100% in the accuracy of indications, dosage and usage information. In this study, it was identified that there were 2 Potential DDIs that occurred in 1 patient (3.7%) with respective risks, namely C and B which included cisplatin-furosemide and cisplatin-ondansetron interactions. Side effects were known to occur in almost all patients (n = 23; 85.2%) where side effects in the form of skin toxicity and diarrhoea were the two most frequently identified types of side effects with a percentage of 59.3% (n = 16). and 40.7% (n = 11).Conclusion: More than 90% of NSCLC showed exon 19 mutation. The most chemotherapy given to the patients was afatinib. There were a potential interaction between cisplatin and either furosemide or ondansetron.

Abstract

Background : Peritumoral brain edema (PTBE) of meningioma causes morbidity, poor clinical outcomes and complicates surgery. Tumor size correlates with the incidence of PTBE. However, the threshold value for tumor size that cause PTBE in meningioma has not been widely studied. Objective: To determine the threshold value for meningioma size that can predict the incidence of peritumoral edema in general and based on specific intracranial locations on pre-operative head MRI.Methods: This is a cross sectional study on patients with intracranial meningioma who had undergone head MRI imaging at Dr.Sardjito Hospital in the period of 2018-2022 retrospectively. An analysis was carried out to find the threshold value for meningioma size and the prevalence ratio to predict the incidence of PTBE. Results: The cut-off volume for intracranial meningioma was >44 cm3 with RP of 3.61 (p=0.01) in general. Simultaneously, large tumor volume (≥44 cm3) has the strongest correlation to the incidence of peritumoral edema (p=0.01). The cut-off volume for meningioma in supratentorial non-skull base was >22 cm3 with RP of 2.54, while in supratentorial skull base was >54 cm3 with RP of 23.33 (p=0.01). The cut off volume for meningioma in infratentorial region was >19.75 cm3 with RP 3.0 (p=0.52). Conclusion: The cut-off value for intracranial meningioma volume to predict the incidence of peritumoral edema is 44 cm3. There are differences in the cut-off values of meningioma volume and prevalence ratios based on specific intracranial locations to predict the incidence of PTBE in meningioma.

Abstract

AbstractBackground: Pharmacists are health workers who play an important role in dealing with COVID-19 pandemic problems. This study explored the hospital pharmacist's perception of their roles and behaviours and the influence factors during the COVID-19 pandemic period.Material and Methods: The research was conducted using phenomenological qualitative methods through in-depth online interviews using an online meetings platform. Informants were taken until the data was saturated. Credibility tests by member checking, dependability, and confirmability tests were performed to ensure data validity. The results of the interviews then were analyzed by thematic analysis.Results: Eight informants were included with 5 emerging themes revealed from this study. The theme consists of the pharmacist's high commitment to his important role as a team member of the healthcare provider in providing the best service by adapting their services, ensuring rational therapy for COVID-19 patients, and maintaining the availability of medicines, medical devices, and consumable medical materials. Furthermore, pharmacists described some innovation strategies, like drug delivery for outpatients and telepharmacy services. The supporting factors for pharmacists in their services were interprofessional collaboration between pharmacists and other healthcare providers. Support from colleagues, hospital management, government, donations and technology were also revealed as positive factors. The barrier factors included uncertain pandemic conditions, pharmacists who were exposed to the virus and the mental health condition of healthcare professionals during the pandemic.Conclusion: Pharmacists have a strong commitment to playing a crucial part in the healthcare team in offering the most treatment possible and providing management work. They created some innovative initiatives to tackle the COVID-19 burden. Supportive and barrier factors that affect pharmacist performance during pandemics were also disclosed and examined in this paper.Keywords:

Abstract

Background: Surgery in the prone position has been associated with various complications such as facial edema, pressure ulcers, and eye problems.  It is important to prevent complications during prone position with head support. Modification of water cushions made from gloves to protect the facial area is often done, but needs to be considered between the benefits and risks to patient safety.Case: A 29 year old woman with a tumor of the occipital region. The patient underwent tumor removal surgery in a prone position for +/- 9 hours. During the operation, the patient uses water cushions from the glove that are placed on the forehead and two sides of the eye. The cushion burst during positioning and in the middle of the operation a water cushion fell. After surgery, the patient complained of blurred vision and facial swelling for 2-3 days.Conclusion: The cushion modification of gloves has the benefit of protecting the bony prominences of the face. Apart from that, the risks of using this modification need to be taken into account, such as the risk of contamination, risk of injury if the placement is uncorrect, and injury also can arise if the cushions shifts or falls due to poor fixation. The modifications can be improved by replacing the gloves used, the water used, and the level of elasticity of the cushion. They can also use head supports that have been proven effective and improve intraoperative monitoring.
