Abstract

Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become more common as the cause of cirrhosis and liver cancer. The liver disease is highly prevalent in people with type-2 diabetes. Indonesia is not spared from the global epidemic of type-2 diabetes. The ultrasound examination is clinically easy-to-use, economical and non-invasive as a tool to detect NAFLD, compared to the gold standard, liver biopsy. To date, there has been no study in Indonesia to link risk factors and ultrasound-based severity grading of NAFLD. Aim: To understand the association between risk factors and ultrasound-based grades of NAFLD in patients with type-2 diabetes. Method: The present study was an observational study with a cross-sectional design (May-October 2018) that involved 82 type-2 diabetes outpatients of the internal medicine clinic in the Gotong Royong Hospital (Surabaya, Indonesia). The risk factors assessed were gender, age, diabetes duration, obesity (anthropometric measurement: body mass index/ BMI, waist circumference and waist-to-hip ratio), glycemic control (hemoglobin A1c/ HbA1c level) and dyslipidemia (lipid profile: total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein/ LDL, high-density lipoprotein/ HDL and triglyceride). The ultrasound-based grades of NAFLD consisted of grade 0 (no NAFLD), grade 1 (increased liver echogenicity with normal images of intrahepatic vessel lines and diaphragm), grade 2 (blurred image of intrahepatic vessel lines) and grade 3 (blurred images of intrahepatic vessel lines and diaphragm). Statistical p-value was significant at ≤ 0.05. Results: Seventy-eight subjects (95,1%) had NAFLD. The ultrasound-based NAFLD grades were significantly different across age groups (Kruskal-Wallis) but the Spearman’s rank correlation test result was not significant. Body mass index and total cholesterol were positively correlated (r = 0.390 and 0.237, respectively) with the NAFLD grades. Conclusion: Higher BMI and total cholesterol are associated with increased ultrasound-based NAFLD grades.

Abstract

Introduction: Posterior tibial tendon dysfunction is one of the most common, problems of the foot and ankle. Tenosynovitis of the posterior tibial tendon (PTT) is an often unrecognized form of PTT dysfunction. Case: A 54-year-old woman presented with left ankle pain that began while morning walk three days prior. She noted that the left ankle hurt with even light touch and the pain was unrelieved with sodium diclofenac. She denied any history of trauma. She was seen in the outpatient clinic for this condition. On examination, a three centimeter area of pain was found posterior to the medial malleolus and parallel to the PTT. She also had a stage I flat foot and mild soft tissue swelling around medial malleolus region on her radiograph examination. Ultrasound examination was done with the result of anechoic fluid visible in the peritendinous space around the PTT. The patient received diagnosis of PTT tenosynovitis, with the foot and ankle disability index (FADI) score was 58.7. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) injection was done twice with an interlude of two weeks. The pain subsided and the following FADI score was 84.6. Outcome: Patient showed improvement in her left ankle PTT tenosynovitis after two PRP injection. Conclusion: This case report highlights the efficacy of PRP as a modality in managing PTT tenosynovitis.

Abstract

Introduction: Exposure and instrumentation of the spine must be meticulous and thorough regardless the techniques and approach selected. Management of the whole surgery process should be decided based on the best available evidence whenever possible. ROSE (Rapid Onsite Evaluation) cytology wrap up the surgical decision. Case Description: Fifteen cases comprise of lytic lesions and/or single pathological fractures of the corpus vertebrae will be presented and discuss as to how the surgical techniques and approaches are assisted by ROSE. ROSE cytology was performed in the operating theater during the surgery. Samples were taken after exposure of the minimal lesion using (18–21) G trocar needle or under fluoroscopy guided. Direct smear, air dried fixation, and Diff Quik staining would take about 10 minutes. Pathologist evaluated the specimen and provided the result in about 20 minutes. The overall 30 minutes allowed surgeon to prepare the further steps. Results would be malignant or benign without pursuing further detail diagnostic. Benign results should be categorized as infection, suspicious of granulomatic tuberculosis, or normal host population cells. The cases outcome were 8 normal host population cells advanced for vertebroplasty to fill the porotic bone. Three spondylitis tuberculosis were debrided without unnecessary instrumentation, and four malignant processes were assured to have enough samples for immunohistochemistry evaluation afterward. All ROSE cytology was confirmed accordingly by the histopathology result afterward. Conclusion: ROSE is easy and offers accurate sampling from the lesion itself. It is quick, therefore during surgery surgeon could decide the best management for the patient.

Abstract

Heatstroke is the most severe heat illness which homeostatic thermoregulatory mechanism is failed, characterized by an elevation of the core body temperature above 40 oC, central nervous system dysfunction, and possible multi-organ failure. Heatstroke is the third leading cause of death among athletes. Exertional heatstroke (EHS) is exercise-induced; usually affects young healthy people during strenuous physical activity and have not acclimatized to environmental heat stress. Frequently encountered complications include encephalopathy, acute respiratory distress syndrome, myocardial injury, acute kidney injury, hypoglycemia, intestinal ishemia or infarction, pancreatic injury, rhabdomyolysis, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), hypocalcemia, lactic acidosis, and hepatic failure. Immediate cooling is the cornerstone of treatment which evaporative cooling is preferred. Aspiration and seizure are common; airway management, oxygenation, and ventilation have to be adequately maintained. Crystalloid-fluid resuscitation is essential, averaging 1200 mL in first 4 hours. Systemic complications of heatstroke should be well-managed to prevent worse outcome. A case of 32-years-old man with no significant medical history was brought to emergency department after collapsing while running into the 20-kilometres marathon. He was unresponsive (GCS E1V2M1), had serial generalized seizure and hematemesis-melena. On primary survey, the patient was shocked (BP 67/24 mmHg, HR 165 bpm, cold extremity), tachypnea (41/min), hyperthermia (40.5oC rectally), SpO2 95% on simple mask 10 L/min. His laboratory results showed full-blown complications of heatstroke. Immediate rehydration therapy using saline solution and colloid solution intravenously was started, followed with blood or blood component transfusion. Tracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation were performed. During the intensive treatment, he became fully conscious and was extubated on hospital day 7. He was hemodynamically stable without any support, but developed multi-organ failure. Unfortunately, on twentieth day, he was cardiac arrest during hemodialysis and died four days later.

Abstract

Pleural sac is an enclosed sac covering the lung that consist of two membranes, i.e. parietal and visceral pleura. It has a cavity filled with small amount fluid that plays important role to provide smooth sliding of lung during respiration. Change or disturbance in the pleural cavity and or the pleura itself may result in restriction of lung expansion causing ventilation compromise. Pathology of pleura may result from varying etiology. It may present as inflammatory pleural effusion, non-inflammatory pleural effusion, pneumothorax, hematothorax, fibrothorax, pleural tumors, and cylothorax. Diagnostic tool for pleural diseases may be made from the simplest chest x-ray, ultrasound, computed tomography, MRI and histopathological studies. There are several treatment options for managing pleural diseases. It consist non operatif treatment, pleural drainage, decortication or pleurectomy, pleurodesis, and/ or resection of pleural tumor through procedure VATS, or open thoracotomy. Indications for surgery are traumatic or spontaneous pneumothorax, hematothorax, cylothorax, failure of non operatif treatment, fibrothorax or schwarte limiting lung expansion, mesothelioma, and recurrent pneumothorax or malignant pleural effusion. Decision for surgery need appropriate timing and planning regarding different pathology and different etiology.

Abstract

Mediastinum is defined as the area demarcated by the thoracic inlet superiorly, the diphragm inferiorly, and the pleural cavities laterally. The mediastinum is a division of the thoracic cavity that contains thymus gland, the heart, trachea and portions of the seophagus, and other structures. Mediastinum divided into 3 region, anterior, posterior, superior, and middle regions. Pneumomediastinum or emphysematous mediastinum is existence of free air in the mediastinum due to spontaneous or secondary reasons. That can be confirmed with thorax X-Ray or CT- Scan thorax. The symptomps are severe central chest pain, shortness of breath, subcutaneous emphysema, laboured breathing and voice distortion. In physical diagnosis, especially on auscultation, there is spesific sign called “Hamman’s Crunch” (crunching sound corresponding with the cardiac cycle (Hamman’s Crunch). Pneumomediastinum can leadto pneumopericardium, pneumotoraks, penumoretroperitonium or penumoperitonium. Air in the mediastinal cavity can be absorbed by itself slowly, so penumomediastinum can treated non-operatively.

Abstract

Indonesia is the second highest tuberculosis (TB)-burden country in the world. TB affects men and women in productive ages. Early and accurate diagnosis of TB is crucial in TB management because it allows prompt treatment with appropriate regimen. Sputum smear microscopy is the most common method used in resource-limited laboratories. The aim of this study is to assess whether adult learning method with student-centered approach can improve knowledge in laboratory techniques in microscopic TB diagnosis. It was a quasi experimental research with one group pretest and posttest design. Pretest was conducted before the training started. During the training, participants attended lectures, discussion sessions, and hands-on laboratory activities. After training, participants were asked to respond to posttest. There were 33 participants of this training (n=33). Paired t-test analysis showed significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (p=6.5x10-9). Variance between pretest scores was 4.00 and variance between posttest scores were 1.34. Pearson correlation coefficient was 0.45. Regardless their level of knowledge before training, participants could achieve relatively equivalent results after training. Significant difference between pre- and post-training test scores indicated that the learning method was effective and the training could improve participants knowledge in laboratory techniques in microscopic TB diagnosis.

Abstract

Background: The urgency generated by drug-resistant strains of malaria parasites has accelerated the need to find a new anti-malarial drug. Recent studies have shown that 80% ethanol extract Acmena acuminatissima has suitable antimalarial activities. Aim: To analyze the inhibitory effect of A. acuminatissima extract at the developmental stage of P. falciparum in infected erythrocytes in vitro. Methods: the synchronized culture of P. falciparum was incubated along with A. acuminatissima extract, and compared with negative controls. The effect on parasite growth was determined by observing the level of parasitemia and accumulation of various infective stages seen on thin blood smears after the incubation period of 12, 24, 36, and 48 hours using a light microscope with 1000 times magnification. Results: Within 48 hours of observation the difference was mainly in the proportion of ring-stage which was 2.75% in culture with the test compound and 41.41% in the negative control which showed that ethanol extract of A. acuminatissima inhibited the growth of parasites at the schizont stage into the ring stage. In trophozoite and schizonts stages of culture with test compounds, enlargement of digestive vacuole and vesiculation is obtained. Conclusion: A. acuminatissima inhibits the development of intraerythrocyt parasites at the schizonts stage and induced morphological changes.

Abstract

Skin plays an important role as the physical barrier and first-line immunological defense against dangerous stimuli, including bacteria. Erythroderma is a condition of excessive skin irritation causing extensive erythema and desquamation. Erythroderma itself is caused by various underlying conditions, one of them is psoriasis vulgaris. In erythroderma, there is an extensive disruption of physical barrier leading to the exposure of various bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus. In human, this bacteria can either colonize or infect the host if exposed to open wound. It is essential to determine this as it will affect the necessity of administering antibiotics. Laboratory examinations such as complete blood count, Gram staining, and culture can help to determine the status of this bacteria. A correlation between clinical features and laboratory examinations is paramount in deciding patient management.

Abstract

Intravascular lymphoma is a rare type of lymphoma with some fundamental differences compared to other types of non–Hodgkin lymphoma in general. Its clinical manifestations vary greatly and depend on the affected organs. There is no pathognomonic signs of intravascular lymphoma, either in clinical, laboratory or radiological findings. This case is challenging to detect and often misdiagnosed because it does not show symptoms that are commonly found in other types of lymphoma, such as mass or nodules formation. The treatment is relatively similar to other lymphoma in general, but the prognosis is worse because it was mostly diagnosed in the advanced stage. These specific conditions become the main reason to separate this case as a special entity of lymphoma.
