Abstract

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a worldwide respiratory disease that causes significant morbidity and mortality. The primary emphasis in managing COPD is on symptom control and preventing exacerbations. However, there has been ongoing discussion surrounding the safety of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS). This narrative review aimed to examine ICS influence on pneumonia in patients with COPD by consolidating findings from randomized controlled trials and observational studies. The data indicated that the utilization of ICS may be linked to a heightened susceptibility to pneumonia, with varying levels of risk reported across different ICS drugs. Regimens containing fluticasone were found to exhibit an increased susceptibility to pneumonia. The presence of a dose-dependent correlation between ICS and the incidence of pneumonia is apparent. Further investigation is necessary to clarify the fundamental principles and enhance treatment recommendations to maximize the management of COPD while minimizing the incidences of pneumonia associated with ICS.

Abstract

Schizophrenia is a severe and chronic mental disorder, where antipsychotics are used as the main therapy. Antipsychotics are commonly used in combination, especially in refractory patients. Clozapine is one of antipsychotics that is often used in combination with other antipsychotic to achieve more effective treatment. However, the effectiveness and safety of the clozapine combination are still inconclusive. This review aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety evidence of clozapine combination therapy with different other antipsychotics. Relevant articles were collected from Google Scholar, Scopus, and PubMed, and published in 2000-2020. Five studies concerning the effectiveness and safety of clozapine in combination with different other antipsychotics were evaluated. No significant difference in the effectiveness of clozapine in combination with other antipsychotics was observed in 4 studies. No significant difference in the safety of all clozapine combinations was observed in 3 studies. Only 2 studies reported that the clozapine-atypical antipsychotic combination (clozapine-aripiprazole) is more tolerable compared to the clozapine-typical antipsychotic. In conclusion, the efficacy and safety of clozapine in combination with different other antipsychotics have not been definitively conclusive, yet.

Abstract

Streptomyces sennicomposti GMY01 is a bacterium with huge biotechnological potential that revealed by genome mining analysis. This research aimed to investigate the potential compounds as antiplasmodial and the antiSARS-CoV-2 from the S. sennicomposti GMY01 using targeted metabolomic and in silico molecular docking. The crude extract was obtained by extraction of supernatant from fermentation product of the S. sennicomposti GMY01. The secondary metabolite profiling was obtained by using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) coupled to targeted high-performance mass spectrometry (HRMS) based on genome mining data of whole genome sequence (WGS). In silico molecular docking was performed on important target protein of P. falciparum i.e. glutathione reductase (PfGR), lactate dehydrogenase (PfLDH), phosphoethanolamine methyltransferase (Pfpmt), erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1) and glutathione-S-transferase (PfGST); and of SARS-CoV-2 proteins i.e. protease domain, spike glycoprotein, receptor-binding domain angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (RBD-ACE2), 3-chymotrypsin-like protease (3CLpro), and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). One compound from S. sennicomposti GMY01 extract, albaflavenone was confirmed by targeted LC-HRMS. On molecular docking analysis, albaflavenone showed higher affinity than chloroquine as antiplasmodial drug and exhibited same affinity to remdesivir as antiSARS-CoV-2. Stertomyces sennicomposti GMY01 has promising biotechnological potential for drug development as antiplasmodial and anti-SARS-CoV-2 agent. Further study is needed, especially regarding in vitro testing of albaflavenone as antiplasmodial and antiSARS-CoV2.

Abstract

Irrational antibiotic prescriptions on pneumonia patients is common in hospitals. This study aimed to evaluate the rationality of antibiotics prescription on pneumonia patients at the Indonesia Air Force Center Hospital (RSPAU) Dr. Suhardi Hardjolukito, Yogyakarta. It was a cross-sectional study using prescriptions for inpatients and outpatients suspected of community acquired pneumonia (CAP) submitted to the Medical Record Installation. All prescribed drugs, including their dosage, duration, route of administration, and demographic information of patients were extracted. The rationality of antibiotic use was then evaluated using the Gyssens and PCNE methods by assessing the antibiotic use with standard treatments based on the Clinical Pathway of RSPAU Dr. Suhardi Hardjolukito, Yogyakarta and the Guideline for the Use of Antibiotics of the Ministry of Health, Republic of Indonesia number 28 in 2021. A total of 124 pneumonia patient prescriptions were evaluated. The rationality of antibiotic prescriptions based on the Gyssens and PCNE criteria were 65.7% and 65.26%, respectively. The irrational of antibiotics based on the Gyssens method consisted of incomplete antibiotic prescription (2.90%), antibiotics not indicated (2.23%), medications prescribed cost more than substitute medications (8.20%), and less duration of medications (19.40%). Furthermore, the irrationality of antibiotics based on the PCNE method consisted of untreated symptoms or indications (8.33%), treatment issues related to cost-effectiveness (1.39%), too short duration of medications (23.61%), and incorrect medication administration or dosage interval timing (1.39%). In conclusion, in general, the antibiotics prescription on pneumonia patients at the RSPAU Dr. Suhardi Hardjolukito was rational. However, this rationality can still be improved.

Abstract

Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) is a neurological disorder with an high mortality rate among schizophrenia patients who receive antipsychotics as the primary long-term therapy. Appropriate selection of antipsychotics in NMS should be carefully considered to obtain maximal effectiveness with minimal side effects. An evaluation of the safety profile of the antipsychotics is important due to their different treatment patterns and rapid onset of symptoms. This review article aimed to compare the safety profile of antipsychotics in relation to NMS in schizophrenia patients. It was a narrative review using multiple search engines included PubMed, Google Scholar, and Springer to collect publications from 2007 to 2023. Of the total 14 articles reviewed, 7 articles explained the role of antipsychotics in NMS, 5 articles about the onset of NMS, and 7 articles about mortality rate. The incidence of NMS was less then 0.11%, typical antipsychotics were the most common cause of NMS, especially high-potency antipsychotics compared with atypical antipsychotics. Meanwhile, the onset of NMS consistently occured within 30 d of antipsychotic initiation with a symptom duration of 1 to 30 d, and the mortality rate was also higher for typical antipsychotics. In conclusion, the choice of antipsychotics must be carefully considered and its use must be monitored due to the rapid onset and high mortality. The use of antipsychotics is not free from the risk of NMS. The heterogeneous symptoms of NMS require earlier detection to reduce disease progression.

Abstract

Hantap (Sterculia oblongata Mast) leaves has been traditionally used in Palu, Central Sulawesi to treat breast cancer. However, its scientific evidence is limited. This study aimed to investigate the cytotoxicity of hantap leaf extracts against T47D breast cancer cells. The apoptotic activity of the extracts and its effect on caspase expression were also evaluated. The extracts were prepared by multilevel maceration using n-hexane, methanol, and water. Cytotoxic activity was evaluated by MTT assay. The apoptotic activity was observed by using a fluorescence microscope after acridine orange-propidium iodide (AO/PI) staining, whereas the caspase-3 mRNA expression was examined by using RT-PCR. Among the 3 tested extracts, the methanol extract exhibited the highest cytotoxicity with an IC50 value of 85 μg/mL. The methanol extract at concentrations of 42.5 μg/mL (½IC50), 85 μg/mL (IC50), and 170 μg/mL (2IC50) induced 127.25, 85.50, 479.5% of cell apoptosis, respectively. Furthermore, the methanol extract at concentrations of ½IC50, IC50, and 2IC50 increased 1.04, 1.43 and 1.69 time higher of caspase-3 mRNA expression. In conclusion, the methanolic extract of hantap leaf exhibits cytotoxicity against T47D breast cancer cells, by inducing apoptosis and increasing caspase-3 mRNA expression.

Abstract

The 2020 Indonesian Health Profile states that diarrhea is an endemic disease that has the potential to cause extraordinary events. Diarrhea is still one of the contributors to death in Indonesia, especially in children under 5 years old. This study aimed to evaluate the use of zinc and probiotic supplementation on the length of stay (LoS) of patients under 5 years old with diarrhea. It was an observational study using medical records of patients under 5 years old with diarrhea at the Academic Hospital, UGM Yogyakarta in the period of 2021 to 2022. Patient characteristics, including use and medications such as zinc supplementation and probiotics, as well as clinical outcomes including LoS were obtained from 100 medical records. Data were analyzed using chi square from Microsoft Excel 365 & Statistical Program for Social Science (SPSS) with a 95% confidence level (p<0.05). The majority of patients were male (61%) with age range 12-23 mo (47%), 3-4 times frequency of diarrhea (69%), dehydration mild-moderate (89%), and acute diarrhea (96%). The treatment of diarrhea was antidiarrheal (44.81%), fluid rehydration (32.55%), and antibiotics (22.64%). Most patients left the hospital in an improved condition and were allowed to go home (92%). There is a significant relationship between the use of zinc, probiotics, and a combination of zinc and probiotics on LoS.

Abstract

According to the 2018 Indonesian Basic Health Research data, the prevalence of hypertension in the Yogyakarta Special Region (11.0%) is higher than the national average of 8.8%. Hypertension with chronic kidney failure is currently a prevalent and increasing issue. This study aimed to investigate the pattern and rationality of antihypertensive use in hypertension patients with chronic kidney failure (CKF) participating in the National Health Insurance (Jaminan Kesehatan Nasional/JKN) program at Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) Academic Hospital period of 2020 to 2022. The study was conducted using quantitative descriptive non-experimental methods. Data collection was carried out retrospectively through medical records of patients diagnosed with hypertension with CKF (ICD I12.0). Samples were selected using purposive techniques and analyzed by comparing the suitability of drug selection with standard hypertension therapy with CKF based on JNC 8 and NKF-K/DOQI, including the rationality of their use. A total of 68 patients over the age of 18 were used as samples. The The majority of drug groupsresults showed that a combination of 2 drugs is more dominant (52.9%) compared to monotherapy (29.4%) and a combination of 3 drugs (17.6%). The majority of drug groups used were angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), especially candesartan (45%). ARB and calcium channel blockers (CCB), especially candesartan+amlodipin (50%), and ARB +CCB+diuretic, especially andesartan +amlodipine + furosemide (33%).. The rationality of drug use showed that 66.2% in the right indications, 89.7% the right drugs, 100% in the right patients and 85% the right doses. Therefore, health workers still need to make efforts to encourage rational drug use.

Abstract

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a pathogen that become a public health problem due to its ability to be resistant to more than three classes of antibiotics. Evaluation of the effectiveness of antibiotic use in patients with MRSA is important to optimize antibiotic use and to control antibiotic resistance. This article review attempted to evaluate the effectiveness of antibiotics in patients with MRSA. This review explored the results of previous research from PubMed as a literature source and the PRISMA flow diagram as a protocol for the article selection process. Eight studies reviewed the evaluation of the effectiveness of antibiotic use in MRSA patients with various clinical conditions, such as uncomplicated wound infections, cellulitis and no wound, purulent drainage or abscess, cSSSI infections caused by MRSA, infections caused by MRSA bacteremia and nosocomial infections caused by MRSA. In conclusion, the effectiveness of antibiotics in patients with MRSA infection depends on the clinical condition of each patient. Therefore, the use of antibiotics is adjusted based on the type of infection and the efficacy of the antibiotics. Combination therapy is recommended for MRSA patients considering its life-threatening ability.
