Abstract

Introduction : Atrophic glossitis is a disease of the tongue that causes inflammation or inflammation, then gives the appearance of a red tongue color with a smooth dorsum accompanied by pain and burning. Atrophic glossitis occurs when the fungiform and filiform papillae on the dorsum of the tongue are lost by as much as 50%. This is due to sufferers who have nutritional deficiencies, such as deficiency of B12, iron, folic acid, riboflavin, and niacin. This article aims to determine the general and specific management of atrophic glossitis. Method : The writing of this article includes various sources originating from scientific journals and government guidelines and related agencies. Source searches were conducted on online journal publication portals such as MedScape, Google Scholar (scholar.google.com) and the National Center for Biotechnology Information (ncbi.nlm.nih.gov), with the keyword "Myasthenia Gravis". Discussion : Management of glossitis can be given with mouthwash containing corticosteroids and lidocaine to relieve inflammation. Then eat foods that contain vitamin B12. Conclusion : Atrophic glossitis can heal on its own and does not require treatment, but this should not be left alone, and requires good management/treatment, namely by maintaining good oral hygiene, then providing iron and vitamin B12 supplementation. Keywords: Glossitis Atrophy, Deficiency of vitamin B12

Abstract

Guillain-Barré Syndrome or GBS is one of the emergency conditions of neurology. Currently, its incidence is relatively low and rare, with a rate of 0.81 to 1.89 of 100,000 people in a year. Guillain-Barré Syndrome or GBS, also known as acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy, is a collection of clinical symptoms caused by an acute inflammatory process that attacks the nervous system. The dominant pathogen that causes Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) is Campylobacter jejuni (C. jejuni). Infection with the pathogen Campylobacter jejuni can trigger an immune and humoral autoimmune response that results in nerve dysfunction and the emergence of GBS symptoms. The clinical course of GBS can be divided into several phases, including the progressive phase, plateau phase, and recovery phase. In cases of GBS, it is possible that these factors are involved in the onset of the disease. Some risk factors associated with GBS include viral infections such as Zika virus, influenza virus, and measles-rubella virus. The diagnosis of GBS includes the main symptoms, additional symptoms, cerebrospinal fluid examination, electrophysiological tests, and the exclusion of other diagnoses. The main symptoms include progressive weakness in the extremities accompanied by or without ataxia and areflexia or hyporeflexia in the tendons. The management that can be done includes supportive therapy through the respiratory system. Another treatment option is immunotherapy, with the goal of accelerating disease recovery and reducing the severity of GBS through the immune system.

Abstract

Thyroiditis is an inflammation that occurs in the thyroid gland and can affect the functioning of the thyroid gland. Based on its etiology, thyroiditis is distinguished into 2, namely thyroiditis which in its clinical manifestations causes pain and does not cause pain in the neck. De Quervain's thyroiditis is the most frequent cause of neck pain. Based on research, this disease is more common in women, which is about 3-4 times more than men. The clinical manifestations that arise vary, ranging from neck pain, symptoms such as hyperthyroidism, to symptoms of thyrotoxicosis. The diagnosis of De Quervain’s thyroiditis can be clinically established based on the results of physical examination and laboratory findings. The findings of laboratory examination results generally occurred an increase in LEDs, CRP, FT3, FT4, and a decrease in TSH levels. The management of this disease is divided into 3, namely supportive therapy, pharmacological, and monitoring.

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. According to data from the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2019, hypertension affects more than 22% of the global population. The results from Riskesdas indicate an increasing prevalence of hypertension in Indonesia, from 25.8% to 34.1%. Body Mass Index (BMI) has a significant impact on the occurrence of hypertension, where individuals with excess BMI and obesity have a higher risk of developing hypertension. The increase in hypertension cases is also caused by dyslipidemia. LDL-C ratio is a strong predictor of atherosclerosis plaque formation, which can lead to increased blood vessel resistance and elevated blood pressure. This study aims to analyze the relationship between Body Mass Index (BMI) and Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) with Blood Pressure. The design of this study was correlational research design with a cross sectional approach. The population in this study were all patients of polyclinic cardiology RSUD Provinsi NTB (November 2022-January 2023), with the sampling technique used was consecutive sampling, where size of sample is 28 peoples. Obtained data are analyzed using Spearman method. Overall there were 28 subjects. There were 4 (14.3%) subjects with underwight range, 7 (25%) with healthy weight range, 16 (57.2%) with overweight range, and obesity range. While for LDL-C levels, there were 8 (28.5%) with optimal, Fairly good, Borderline high, High, and very high. 5 (18%) out of 28 respondents have optimal BP, 7 (25%) with normal BP whereas in high BP were 57%. Stastistical analysis shows that there was no relationship between the value of BMI with blood pressure with p-value 0,765 (p>0,05; r = 0,059). there was no relationship between LDL-C with blood pressure (r = 0,044; p = 0,823).

Abstract

The brain is a complex, delicate neural organ protected by the skull, meninges and cerebrospinal fluid. This protection can be damaged by disease, such as bacterial meningitis. Its high morbidity and mortality results in the need for prompt diagnosis and treatment. This literature review uses a literature study method from various references and focuses on the incidence of bacterial meningitis with search engines, namely PubMed, ProQuest, and Google Scholar. Nineteen articles were found to be suitable for reference in this literature review. Bacterial meningitis is an inflammation of the meninges due to infection with the bacteria Streptococcus pneumoniae, Neisseria meningitidis, and Haemophilus influenzae type B. The incidence of bacterial meningitis worldwide reached 8.7 million cases with 379,000 deaths. In Indonesia, there were 78,018 cases with 4313 deaths. Symptoms of bacterial meningitis include fever, neck stiffness, and altered mental status with complications of focal neurologic deficits, hearing and cognitive impairment, seizures, and hydrocephalus. Treatment for bacterial meningitis includes antibiotics ceftriaxone, cephalosporin, penicillin, or ampicillin in combination with corticosteroids which should be given as soon as possible to minimize symptoms, complications, and mortality.

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.
