Abstract

Sezary syndrome (SS) is a rare and aggressive variant of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), characterized by clonal proliferation of malignant T lymphocytes with skin erythroderma. The incidence of CTCL in the United States from 2000 to 2010 reached 10 cases per million people per year, accounts for only 3% of all cases of cutaneous lymphoma. In Indonesia, lymphoma ranks sixth in terms of malignancies, alongside Hodgkin lymphoma and leukemia. We reported a case of 56 y.o. woman presented with blistering lesions that turned into wounds all over her body. Skin biopsy examination revealed characteristic histopathological features, including basket weave-type orthokeratosis, focal parakeratosis, focal acanthosis, and epidermotropism of atypical lymphoid cells with cerebriform nuclei (Sezary cells). Immunohistochemical examination using CD3, CD4, and CD8 showed positive staining in the membrane and cytoplasm of tumor cells within the dermis and epidermis. Sezary syndrome is characterized by clonal expansion of T-helper memory cells in the skin. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry could not differentiate SS from mycosis fungoides. However, histopathological examination could distinguish SS from other differential diagnoses. The diagnosis of SS can be established based on the triad of 1) generalized exfoliative dermatitis involving more than 80% of the body surface area, 2) lymphadenopathy, and 3) the presence of 5% or more malignant T-cells with cerebriform nuclei (Sezary or Lutzner cells) in peripheral blood lymphocytes. In conclusion, we present a case of SS, diagnosed based on the patient's history, physical examination, peripheral blood examination, histopathology, and immunohistochemistry.

Abstract

Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is an immune-mediated condition that targets the roots of the spinal cord and peripheral nerves. While most patients with GBS can achieve complete recovery with appropriate management, some may experience long-term sequelae that adversely impact their quality of life (QoL). Clinical outcomes are measured variables in research to evaluate the effects of interventions or exposures on a particular population’s health. Patients with GBS may experience suboptimal clinical outcomes due to post-GBS disabilities, which may result from complications or residual symptoms of the syndrome. These disabilities can impede daily functioning and significantly lower QoL, often requiring patients to alter their lifestyles, work, and social interactions. Quality of life is a subjective assessment of how individuals perceive their circumstances in relation to their goals, influenced by their cultural and value systems. Various tools are available to assess the quality of life for GBS patients. The clinical outcomes and QoL for post-GBS patients are diverse and shapedby various factors. Through the early identification of these factors, clinicians can enhance management strategies to improve both clinical outcomes and the overall QoL for individuals recovering from GBS.

Abstract

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a common pelvic disorder among women. Although it is not life-threatening, POP represents significant health concern because it can cause urinary incontinence, decrease sexual function, and impair quality of life. This systematically review was conducted to compare the effectiveness and safety of anterior colporrhaphy with vaginal mesh therapy in the management of POP. The data sources were selected for their reputation in publishing high-quality research in urology and women’s health, including PubMed, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, and the Cochrane Library, covering publications from 2014 to 2024. We included both randomized and non-randomized studies comparing anterior colporrhaphy with vaginal mesh therapy for stress urinary incontinence (SUI), ensuring a comprehensive review of the available evidence. Data were extracted on sample size, study location, surgical technique, patient satisfaction, reoperation rates, mesh erosion, pain, sexual function, operative time, length of hospital stay, and other complications. A total of 3,528 articles were collected. After removing 2,834 duplicates, 694 unique records remained. Following a quality assessment, six studies met the final inclusion criteria. Analysis of randomized controlled trials and cohort studies revealed no significant differences between the two procedures in terms of erosion rates, SUI incidence, reoperation rates, or patient satisfaction. These findings highlight the importance for urogynecologists to carefully consider patient identification, selection, comorbidities, and the choice of POP repair procedure.

Abstract

Recent insights reveal that liver diseases influence not only hepatic function but also disrupt gut microbial balance through the gut–liver axis. The gut–liver axis establishes a bidirectional relationship between the intestines and the liver, allowing microbial by-products such as short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) to influence liver function and health. Short-chain fatty acids are known to maintain intestinal epithelial integrity, reduce inflammation, and support liver function. Probiotic bacteria including Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, and Clostridium, are natural SCFA producers and may offer therapeutic potential for liver disease by targeting the gut-liver axis. This systematic review was conducted using the PRISMA 2020 methodology to identify and evaluate preclinical studies examining the impact of SCFA-producing probiotics on liver disease. We searched PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar from August to October 2023, using predefined inclusion criteria based on the PICO framework. The SYRCLE risk of bias tool was employed to evaluate potential biases. A total of 14 animal studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were incorporated into the final analysis. The included studies demonstrated that SCFA-producing probiotics improved liver function by reducing serum liver enzymes (ALT, AST), increasing tight junction proteins (occluding, ZO-1), modulating pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α,), and improving lipid metabolism. These outcomes were mediated by increases in SCFA levels and improved gut barrier integrity in models of NAFLD, ALD, NASH, and autoimmune hepatitis. These findings support the promising potential of SCFA-producing probiotics as adjunctive therapies for liver disease through modulation of the microbiota-gut-liver axis. Yet, continued research is needed to determine strain-specific efficacy, optimal dosage, long-term safety, and clinical applicability. Future research should also explore personalized probiotic strategies and the integration of probiotic therapy into standard liver disease management.
