Abstract

The use of corticosteroid eye drops is one of the post-cataract surgery treatments aimed at reducing inflammation and preventing complications. This literature aims to review the effectiveness and safety of topical corticosteroid use in patients after cataract surgery. Reviewing several recent studies on this topic, this literature finds that topical corticosteroids effectively reduce inflammation and speed up post-operative healing. However, there are risks of side effects, such as increased intraocular pressure (IOP), that need to be considered. The literature also discusses comparisons between corticosteroids and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), showing that while NSAIDs are also effective, corticosteroids provide better results in controlling inflammation. In conclusion, corticosteroid eye drops are recommended as the standard treatment after cataract surgery with close monitoring of IOP.

Abstract

Hyperimmunoglobulin-M Syndrome (HIGM) is a set of symptomps  due to primary immunodeficiency characterized by low levels of immunoglobulin G (IgG), immunoglobulin A (IgA), immunoglobulin E (IgE), and normal or increased levels of immunoglobulin M (IgM) or recurrent infections. HIGM syndrome was initially thought to be caused by genetic defects related to the X chromosome only, but along with advances in molecular technology in detecting genetic abnormalities, other autosomal-type defects were found. Genetic defects in HIGM Syndrome cause disruption of the maturation process of humoral immunity, especially diversity through CSR, and increased affinity through SHM. Clinical manifestation of HIGM patients varies greatly and depends on the defect in the CD40L or CD40 signal pathway. Current therapy given for HIGM patients aim to resolve those clinical manifestation and fix the production of high-affinity antibody. Life expectancy of patients without a bone marrow transplant is estimated to be less than 30 years.

Abstract

Patients with diabetes mellitus have a 2-3 times higher risk of experiencing depression compared to the general population, which can potentially exacerbate their overall health condition. This literature review aimed to investigate the prevalence of depression among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients and to identify its associated risk factors. This literature review was conducted by searching electronic databases including Google Scholar, PubMed, and ProQuest. Twelve studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in the analysis. The results revealed that the prevalence of depression among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients varied from 23.20% to 83.80%, with a majority of cases classified as mild to moderate. To identify risk factors contributing to the high prevalence of depression in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients, additional studies were explored. Based on this literature review, it can be concluded that the prevalence of depression among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients is quite high. Several consistently identified risk factors include advanced age, female gender, low education level, unstable or unemployed work status, low income, marital status, and longer duration of diabetes. Early detection and appropriate management of depression in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus are essential for enhancing quality of life and optimizing treatment outcomes.

Abstract

Color vision deficiency is the inability of the eye to distinguish colors, this can occur both congenitally and acquired. Color vision deficiency can affect a person's quality of life performance and the selection of advanced study programs in children. This study aims to determine the prevalence and characteristics of color vision deficiency in detail in elementary school-age children. This study used a total sampling technique with a cross sectional method with 366 respondents. Data collection was carried out from September to October. In this study, 5.2% (10 people) of respondents experienced color vision deficiency. As many as 2.2% (8 people) of respondents had partial color vision deficiency and 0.5% (2 people) of respondents had color blindness (monochromat). Of the 195 male respondents, 4.6% of them suffered from color vision deficiency while of the 171 female respondents, 0.6% of them suffered from color vision deficiency. Color vision is related to cone cell photoreceptors. Each type of cone cell plays a role in color vision. The prevalence of students with color vision deficiency is 2.7%. In this study it was found that students had partial and total color vision deficiency (monochromat). The most common type of red-green color vision deficiency. The highest prevalence is in male students. It is recommended to the government and schools to carry out a complete eye examination including a color vision examination so that it can support the learning process and the selection of advanced study programs according to the child's condition.

Abstract

Asthenopia, or what is usually called tired eyes, is the occurrence of tension in the ciliary muscles in the eyes caused by intensive visual activity. The symptoms of asthenopia that are felt are subjective visual discomfort, which causes decreased concentration, academic performance, and work ability. This study aims to determine the correlation between the degree of asthenopia in corrected and uncorrected refractive errors in FKIK Ukrida students in the class of 2020. This study used a total sampling technique with a cross-sectional method with 159 respondents. Data collection was carried out in December. In this study, the number of respondents who had corrected refractive errors consisted of 30 (21.3%) people who did not experience asthenopia, 56 (39.7%) experienced mild asthenopia, 15 (10.6%) people experienced moderate asthenopia, and 1 (0.7%) experienced severe asthenopia. Respondents who had uncorrected refractive errors consisted of 10 (7.1%) people who did not have asthenopia, 13 (9.2%) had mild asthenopia, 14 (9.9%) people, and 2 people did not have severe asthenopia. The degree of asthenopia and the corrected refractive error are correlated, according to the Spearman test findings, with a p-value of 0.032. Symptoms of asthenopia can cause a decrease in visual quality and work ability. The results of this research found that FKIK students experienced more corrected refractive errors. Symptoms of asthenopia are many. Asthenopia is often found in corrected refractive errors. So, education is needed to prevent asthenopia in FKIK students.
