Abstract

Parkinson's disease is a neurological disorder that can be a major source of disability throughout the world. Changes in conditions in the body, such as α-Syn mutations can increase the risk of developing Parkinson's disease. α-Syn mutations will cause the loss of large and selective dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) thereby triggering the early symptoms of Parkinson's disease. The high risk of side effects in the use of modern pharmacological therapy, indicates that a new breakthrough in the form of herbal-based ethnomedicine therapy for patients with Parkinson's disease is urgently needed. Ginkgo leaf, from the Ginkgo biloba plant, has long been known as a popular herbal supplement in Europe, Asia and America. The content of active compounds in ginkgo leaves was found to have the potential to provide therapeutic effects in patients with Parkinson's disease. This article will discuss the potency, mechanism of action, extraction process, and comparison of the potency of the two compounds with previous therapies. The development of the potential of ginkgo leaves is expected to reduce the increasing number of cases and provide a better quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease.

Abstract

Reye syndrome (RS) is a rare metabolic disorder which primarily affects children. The disease is generally characterized by acute encephalopathy and fatty degeneration of several parenchymes, especially the liver. Aspirin or acetylsalicylic acid is an over-the-counter drug as a solution to viral infection that would be the trigger for developing this syndrome. Reye syndrome is most commonly caused by viral pathogens like influenza A and B and varicella. Reye syndrome presents signs and symptoms of continued vomiting with or without dehydration, encephalopathy and, in 50% of patients, hepatomegaly. According to the clinical stage developed and modified by Hurwitz, the clinical stage of Reye syndrome is divided in 0-5, including the non-clinical stage (stage 0). The pathophysiological profile of Reye syndrome is unknown. However, it appears to be associated with mitochondrial dysfunction caused by the use of aspirin resulting in impaired fatty acid metabolism, reduced excretion, and impaired hepatic metabolism. A case-control study suggested a strong association between aspirin-taking behavior and the development of Reye's syndrome. A case-control study suggested a strong association between aspirin-taking behavior and the development of Reye's syndrome. This literature will present a discussion of the relationship of aspirin as a trigger for Reye syndrome based on the etiology, pathophysiology, and pharmacodynamics of aspirin.

Abstract

Penyakit jantung koroner merupakan salah satu penyakit kardiovaskular yang memiliki angka kecacatan dan kematian yang tinggi di dunia. Penyebab paling umum yang mendasari penyakit ini adalah tersumbatnya arteri koroner yang menyuplai darah ke jantung akibat adanya penumpukan plak atau yang sering dikenal sebagai aterosklerosis. Saat ini, pilihan terapi konvensional yang tersedia memiliki banyak efek samping yang parah, seperti salah satunya statin yang memiliki efek samping terhadap liver. Banyaknya efek samping yang ditimbulkan memberikan celah untuk ditemukannya obat baru salah satunya yang berasal dari bahan alam laut. Bahan alam laut memiliki fungsi sebagai reservoir dalam metabolit bioaktif baru dengan berbagai aktivitas farmakologis di dalamnya seperti xyloketal B dan asperlin. Ulasan ini merangkum pemahaman kami mengenai manfaat xyloketal B dan asperlin dalam proses aterosklerosis pada penyakit jantung koroner.

Abstract

Abstract: Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia is pneumonia that appears in patients after at least 48 hours using a mechanical ventilator. Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP) often occurs in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and is the second leading cause of infection in the ICU. Several researches in Indonesia shown a high prevalence and mortality rate in this type of Hospital Acquired Infections in ICU. Known risk factor of VAP are duration of ventilator, primary diagnosis, and comorbid such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. Pathogens also determined the severity of VAP and it was mostly caused by multi-drug resistant organism (MDRO) such as Acinetobacter baumanni, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Specimen culture needed to identify the causative pathogens and to determine the most effective antibiotic therapy, as the prognosis of VAP depend on the use of definite antibiotics and a quick treatment.

Abstract

Multidrug-Resistant Tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is a TB disease that is resistant to rifampicin and isoniazid with or without other first-line Anti-Tuberculosis Drugs (OAT). Accurate MDR-TB diagnosis and treatment methods are very important to minimize the impact of the disease. The aim of this literature review is to increase understanding of MDR-TB, with a focus on discussing methods of diagnosing and treating MDR-TB. Diagnosis in MDR-TB patients can be done using TCM and sensitivity testing using the Line-2 LPA (Line Probe Assay) method or conventional methods. Treatment is in the form of the use of bedaquiline, prothionamide, linezolid, and moxifloxacin regimens for 6 months; all-oral regimen for 9 months; and long-term regimens for MDR-TB patients

Abstract

Vascular trauma is an injury involving the circulatory system, particularly blood vessels, disrupting the body's balance and being a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. The extremities are the most common locations for vascular trauma, especially the femoral artery, popliteal artery, and brachial artery. Signs and symptoms of vascular trauma in body limbs are described as hard and soft signs. Hard signs found in patients indicate the need for surgical intervention, while patients with soft signs require further diagnostic imaging for confirmation. Management should consider the golden period (6 to 8 hours) by controlling bleeding with resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusions (REBOA), minimizing ischemic events in the distal part of the trauma, and preventing compartment syndrome. Surgical intervention is performed to achieve functional recovery and salvage the affected vascular area. Surgical procedures that can be performed in cases of vascular trauma include vascular grafting, vascular ligation, and temporary intravascular shunt (TIVS).

Abstract

Spatial intelligence, especially in a visual context, is the ability to construct, design, or arrange the structure of an object in space that includes various directions and positions. Spatial intelligence, especially spatial memory, develops throughout childhood along with the functional maturation of specific areas in the cerebral white matter tracts. Based on this, efforts to improve spatial intelligence are important to do in childhood, one of which is through the traditional game engklek. Children's spatial memory intelligence increases through the process of playing engklek. The engklek game can train the use of spatial memory through movement within spatial boundaries and cognitive mapping of the brain which represents images of the environment and objects in space. The method used in this literature review is by searching and reviewing various literature sourced from online databases such as PubMed as well, Google Scholar, and textbook.

Abstract

Decompression sickness merupakan salah satu penyakit yang ditemukan dalam penyelaman dengan insiden 1 kasus/10.000 penyelam. Data di NTB menyebutkan nelayan di Pulau Bungin, 57, 5% mengalami penyakit ini dengan gejala nyeri sendi dan 11,3 % dengan gangguan pendengaran ringan sampai tuli Penyakit ini terjadi akibat perubahan tekanan yang terjadi secara cepat saat naik ke permukaan pada saat menyelam menimbulkan pelepasan gelembung gas nitrogen yang berdifusi ke dalam darah saat menyelam ke jaringan tubuh. Gejala penyakit ini bisa ringan pada kulit dan sendi sampai berat mengenai sistem respirasi. Terapi yang dilakukan berupa oksigenasi dengan oksigen 100% nasal, rehidrasi dengan cairan infus isotonis dan terapi rekompresi.
