Abstract

Introduction : Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes are gram positive bacteria which can cause various diseases. The use of antiseptics is an effort that can be done in order to break the chain of transmission and reduce morbidity due to infection by microorganism. Alcohol as the main ingredients of antiseptics is probably the oldest and most widely used in various antiseptic products on the market. Despite their easy and practical use, reports of incidents of resistance to alcohol-based antiseptic agents to bacteria have been reported from several studies. Aim: Determine the inhibition of alcohol-based antiseptic solutions against Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes bacteria. Methods : Kirby-Bauer disc-diffusion assays as susceptibility test. Zone of inhibition of growth diameter was performed in mm, with criteria resistance if ≤ 6 mm and sensitive if > 6 mm. We used 4 solutions namely A) ethanol 70%, B) ethanol 70% + H2O2 0,15%, C) ethanol 80%, D) ethanol 80% + H2O2 0,15%. Result : The assay results on Staphylococcus aureus showed the zone of inhibition of growth for solution ethanol 70%, ethanol 70% + H2O2 0,15%, ethanol 80%, and ethanol 80% + H2O2 0,15% are less than 6 mm which indicated that the antiseptic solution do not inhibit bacterial growth, as well as for all solutions against Streptococcus pyogenes. Different results were obtained from solution D (ethanol 80% + H2O2 0.15%) on S. aureus which indicate the zone diameter is 21 mm and classified having the ability to inhibit bacterial growth (sensitive). Conclusion: Exposure of gram positive bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes to clinically relevant concentrations of ethanol based antiseptic with or without hydrogen peroxide addition is not effective in inhibiting bacteria. Only an 80% alcohol-based antiseptic solution with the addition of H2O2 is still effective in inhibiting S. aureus . Further research needs to be done to review the recommended antiseptic formula and the need to add other ingredients to make an effective antiseptic in order to prevent infection.

Abstract

Life expectancy increases along with improving health. A good healthy life as an impact that there are still many workers in old age who are still needed. The effect of age and work environment will affect the normal range of time-domain heart rate variability (HRV) in older worker. Heart rate variability test might detect autonomic nervous system influenced by blood pressure level, stress, and working environment. A low HRV value is considered an independent marker of risk of death. However, age-related decline in HRV may limit its predictive value, especially in older workers. It was found that the decrease in HRV decreased with age and length of service. The elevation of HRV at specific wavelengths was correlated with the blood pressure values of hypertension patients; however, in the uncontrolled hypertensive group, the values of SDNN, SDANN, ASDNN, VLF, LF (indicating sympathovagal balance), and HF were significantly lower.

Abstract

Hashimoto thyroiditis (AIT) is a common cause of hypothyroidism that can occur in childhood and adolescence (ages six to sixteen years) and often occurs in women. AIT can be determined by increases in TSH with normal thyroid hormone serum levels. The diagnosis of AIT based on clinical symptoms of hypothyroid, biochemical results, and ultrasound images. Treatment is carried out by administering levothyroxine at an initial dose of 1 – 2 g/weight/day. This case report aims to show that AIT can show a wide range of symptoms and effects from the treatment that given to patient.

Abstract

Background of the Problem: In 2000, deaths caused by air pollution in the world reached 57,000 people per year and it is estimated that over the next 20 years this figure will increase to close to 14% or 0.7 per year.  According to Calvin, 2020, in Gold Mining, incidents of Silica exposure among workers aged 45-55 years out of 2255 people, it was found that 1592 (71%) people died. From the number above, there were 1296 people (81%) suffering from silicosis and pulmonary Tuberculosis (TB). Chemical dust (Silica) causes lung disorders, which is one of the Occupational Lung Diseases. The above process has a danger to the environment and workers. According to BPJS Employment 2022, the number of cases of KK (working accidents) and PAK (occupational diseases) in 2021 is 234,370 cases.Method of Research:       Population of 100 workers aged 20 – 61 years, Natural Stone Processors located in Tulungagung, East Java, Indonesia. Workers inspection: (1) Interview and physical examination of workers, (2) Supporting examination: Spirometry and Thorax photos, (3) Work Environment Testing consisting of: Work climate, dust, gas (NO2, CO2).Results: Worker habits: smoking as much as 55%, PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) used by the majority of cloth masks 71%, chemical dust (Silica) highest 4.6995 mg/m3, Climate in the workplace (temperature >32°C). These conditions can influence the occurrence of occupational lung disorders. Lung examination of Natural Stone processing workers in Tulungagung showed lung function disorders in 61 people (61%) and thorax photo examination showed abnormalities in 11 people (11%). WorkingPeriod has an influence on Occupational Lung Disease with a significance value of 0.03 (p-value < 0.05), with a confidence level of 95%.Conclussion: Working Period influences Occupational Lung Disease in workers in the production department of the Natural Stone Processing Company, in Tulungagung (1). Other factors that are suspected to influence the health of workers include: Occupational Lung Disease, namely smoking habits, not using the correct PPE, a dusty work environment (chemical substances) and a workplace climate with temperatures above the recommended values (2).Keywords: PAK, KK, APD, Silica, Working Period, Lung Disease due to work

Abstract

Glaucoma is a crucial ocular health issue that warrants meticulous attention according to its status as the leading cause of irreversible visual impairment on a global scale. The incidence of this illness has been on a steady rise, notably within the Asian region. Blood pressure impacts both intraocular pressure (IOP) and ocular perfusion pressure (OPP), which is the pressure responsible for facilitating blood flow to the eyeball. Hypertension is considered a contributing factor in the development of glaucoma. The Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS) plays a crucial role in the pathophysiology of hypertension and also contributes to the pathogenesis of glaucoma. The presence of Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors medications, such as angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE-I) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) have demonstrated efficacy in reducing intraocular pressure (IOP) and reducing ganglion cell apoptosis. Consequently, these pharmacological agents present a viable therapeutic approach to patients afflicted with hypertension and glaucoma.

Abstract

When the availability of iron is insufficient to meet the needs of the body with or without anemia, it is classified as iron deficiency characterized by a serum ferritin concentration of less than 100 ng/ml or a 100-299 ng/mL with a transferrin saturation (TSAT) less than 20% in patients with heart failure. Reduced intake, low iron absorption due to increased hepcidin secretion, iron secretion in the reticuloendothelial system as a result of inflammation, and blood loss from the gastrointestinal system are mechanisms believed to cause iron deficiency (ID). With 25–42% of Heart Failure (HF) patients having ID when anaemia is absent, ID is frequent regardless of the presence of anaemia in HF. ID management in HF requires a shift in the therapeutic focus from dealing with anemia to iron supplementation, both oral and intravenous (IV). Current guidelines also support the use of IV iron. New drugs also focus on iron metabolism, which these drugs are still in development.

Abstract

Syndactyly is interdigiti soft tissue and/or osseous fusion or adhesion and may affect hand and/or foot. Syndactyly is caused by congenital or acquired. Acquired syndactyly is a rare disease that may caused by trauma, inflammation, or infection around the finger. This abnormality may affect aesthetic and functional impairment, so that surgery procedure is needed to syndactyly release. The aim of this paper is to report a rare case of simple incomplete acquired syndactyly post-operative in a man aged 53 year old. Patient came to surgery clinic because adhesion of his third and fourth left hand fingers since 21 years ago. The abnormality was disturbing his work as a baker currently. He had trauma 21 years ago when he worked as construction labour that cause swelling in his left palm, so he went to hospital and got needle aspiration. After needle aspiration, he experienced worse symptoms like recurrency swelling, rednesss, itchy, and pain then got surgery procedure that did not affect the fingers area directly. After surgery, the symptoms got improved, but he found adhesion between his third and fourth fingers days later after surgery. From currently physical examination, there was left hand interdigiti adhesion between 1/3 proximal thirth and forth fingers and from palpation there was no adhesion between the finger bone. He was diagnosed simple incomplete acquired syndactyly third and fourth digiti manus sinistra. The patient got surgery procedure with z-plasty technique to syndactyly release and hospitalized for 3 days. He got Cefixime, Ketoprofen, and Mefenamic Acid when he went home.
