Abstract

One significant subset of curable neuropathies brought on by Mycobacterium leprae is leprous neuropathy. Millions of people in most underdeveloped nations suffer from leprous neuropathy, which can lead to debilitating motor deficiencies, sensory loss, and skin deterioration. The peripheral nerve system and skin are the primary organs affected by leprosy. The clinical characteristics, cutaneous histology, and bacteriology may all be used to conclude the diagnosis. Leprosy neuropathy diagnosis also requires a nerve biopsy. Needles electromyography and nerve conduction investigations are two examples of electrophysiologic nerve examinations. Both studies offer details on the degree of nerve involvement, the location of lesions, and the underlying mechanism of injury. For patients with leprosy neuropathy, multiple medication therapies are recommended. Aside from standard medical care, acute neuropathy may sometimes require surgical intervention. In reversal reactions, corticosteroids can prevent or lessen nerve damage.

Abstract

Background: Leprosy has been known as the greatest imitator disease that can mimic a disease condition, including autoimmune disease. This case report aims to demonstrate and remind healthcare providers that leprosy infection may manifest with various autoimmune phenomena reminiscent of classic autoimmune disease, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and to prevent delayed treatment and further complications. Case report: A 28-year-old female patient with ulcers all over her body and amputation of her fingers and toes. Based on the positive antinuclear antibodies (ANA) test results, weak positive ANA profile band, anticardiolipin antibodies immunoglobulin M (ACA IgM), and complement C4 test, the patient has been diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) since eleven years ago. There was no improvement during SLE therapy as the years passed. The patient developed leprosy symptoms such as madarosis, saddle nose, and facies leonine. Slit skin smear for leprosy acid-fast bacilli (AFB) from forehead and chin showed bacterial index +6, skin biopsy examination concluded lepromatous leprosy with bacterial index +5, and IgM anti-PGL-1 serological test examination 3185 u/ml. She was treated with steroids at the hospital and multidrug therapy for multibacillary leprosy (MDT MB) for one year. She had significant improvement after receiving medication. Conclusion: The diagnosis of leprosy is delayed because of the clinical similarities between the disease and SLE. The clinicians should know leprosy-specific symptoms to avoid inaccurate diagnoses and treatment delays.

Abstract

Introduction: Treponema pallidum is the sexually transmitted pathogen that causes syphilis. Congenital or acquired syphilis are the two categories. In 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) anticipates 7 million additional cases of syphilis. 76,923 new patients were reported in 2020 by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia. There is still inadequate information about Bali's incidence or prevalence of syphilis. This study aims to describe the characteristics of syphilis patients seeking treatment at Bali Mandara Hospital's Dermato-Venereology Department between 1st January 2020 to 31st December 2022. Methods: In this descriptive cross-sectional retrospective study from 1st January 2020 to 31st December 2022, we used 56 samples from secondary data collected from the patient register book and medical records of the dermatovenereology outpatient clinic at Bali Mandara General Hospital. Data were analyzed descriptively using SPSS version 26. Results: According to the study, there were 56 syphilis patients, including 32 men (57.1%) and 24 women (42.9%). The most common age group was 25 to 44 years old, with 36 patients (64.3%), while the most common clinical stage of syphilis was early latent syphilis, with 20 patients (35.7%). Venereal Disease Research Laboratory (VDRL) titer of 1:2 was the most frequent finding, with 16 patients (28.6%). Conclusion: It may be concluded that syphilis cases at Bali Mandara General Hospital have a different description that varies according to each variable. Future studies on syphilis cases are anticipated to build on the findings of this study.

Abstract

Background: Skin aging leads to dyspigmentation, wrinkles, and lentigines. Photorejuvenation, especially Q-switched Nd:YAG laser therapy, is commonly used to address these concerns. We present a case series evaluating the effectiveness of combining Q-switched Nd:YAG laser with Polynucleotides (PN) Salmon DNA for facial photorejuvenation. Case series: Five healthy adults underwent four sessions of full-face laser toning with a QS 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser followed by Polynucleotide (PN) Salmon DNA 2% injections every two weeks. We recorded subjective assessments and pain levels during treatment and captured photographic images for analysis. The treatment significantly improved skin brightness and pigmentation, with some subjects achieving mild or no pigmentation. Skin elasticity improvements varied among subjects. Some experienced significant enhancement, while others showed minor changes or none at all. Skin redness responses varied. Objective measurements revealed pore size, skin elasticity, moisture, skin tone, wrinkles, and skin age improvements. Conclusion: Combining Q-switched Nd:YAG laser with PN Salmon DNA shows promise for enhancing skin health and appearance.

Abstract

Background: Pruritic papular eruption (PPE) is one of the most common skin manifestations in HIV/AIDS patients. Pruritic papular eruptions are due to immune dysregulation, causing dominance of interleukin-4, which causes a decrease in ceramide synthesis (CER) and impaired skin barrier function. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of CER over non-CER moisturizing cream in HIV/AIDS patients with PPE. Methods: Double-blind experimental design. The research subjects are PPE patients at Dr. Sardjito General Hospital. CER and non-CER moisturizing cream are applied for three weeks, respectively. Analysis of the trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL), skin hydration, and itching were analyzed using an unpaired T-test or the Mann-Whitney test with a significance of p<0.05. Results: Ceramide synthesis moisturizing cream decreased the TEWL value by 3.56 ± 2.38 g/m2/hour; increased the value of skin hydration by 16.39±7.19 a.u.; decreased skin lesions by 0.79 ± 4.95; reduced itching by 1.54 ± 0.78 and without causing side effects. Non-CER moisturizing cream decreased the TEWL value by 1.57 ± 2.00 g/m2/hour; increased the value of skin hydration by 12.03 ± 6.88 a.u.; decreased skin lesions by 1.42 ± 3.00; reduced itching by 1.17 ± 0.70 and also without causing side effects. Conclusion: Ceramide cream is more effective than non-CER moisturizing cream in reducing TEWL and increasing skin hydration. Ceramide and non-CER moisturizing creams have the same effectiveness in reducing the number of lesions and reducing itching. Ceramide and non-CER moisturizing creams do not cause side effects.
