Folia Medica Indonesiana, as indicated by its name, focuses on publishing good quality articles about research and education on health science and medicine in Indonesia. However, due to the fast growth of science and knowledge in these fields, we also welcome submitted articles from around the world, especially the ones that contain related matters from lower-middle income countries. Folia Medica Indonesiana is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal that is published online at least four times a year. The scope covers various aspects of basic medical sciences includes anatomy, physiology, pathology, microbiology, pharmacology, and molecular medicine) and clinical medicine (covers specialties like internal medicine, surgery, pediatrics, oncology, psychiatry, etc). We highlight the pathology and potential treatment of metabolic syndromes and infectious diseases. Folia Medica Indonesiana also encourages the publication of articles about health education. The scope includes, but is not limited to, articles that emphasize on preventive education on certain diseases in a community, also research report of various materials and/or methods to develop medical education. We recognize the importance of this type of articles to be published alongside the assigned topic in each of our yearly issues, to provide our readers with updated information in medical sciences’ research and education simultaneously.

Abstract

Graft tunnel healing is important for the successful reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament by using the hamstring tendon autograft. There are studies that intra graft tunnel Bone Marrow Mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) or intra graft tunnel Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) accelerated graft tunnel healing. This study aimed to investigate the effect of using BMSCs+VEGF injected intra-articular on graft tunnel healing. We reconstructed the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of 12 rabbits using an autograft hamstring tendon with and without intra-articular BMSCs+VEGF. Histological evaluation was done at 3 and 6 weeks after ACL reconstruction. On the surface between the graft and the bone tunnel obtained collagen fiber thickness or Sharpey fiber is significantly more than the control group (p< 0.05) in the evaluation of 3 weeks and 6 weeks either side of the tibia and the femur. To evaluate the progression of the treatment, treatment group and control group gained progression had significantly when compared to 3 weeks and 6 weeks. It can be concluded that intra-articular injection of VEGF+BMSCs can accelerate the integration of the graft tunnel from histology evaluation on 3 and 6 weeks.

Abstract

Patients with advanced heart failure (NYHA FC III and IV heart failure) had positive cardiac troponin levels in previous cohort studies. In heart failure, cardiac troponin T (cTnT) is a biomarker that is sensitive to myocardial damage, especially myocardial necrosis. However, there is still little information regarding changes in cTnT levels during standard therapy. This prospective observational study is aimed at evaluating changes in cTnT levels before and after theadministration of standard therapy and evaluating symptom improvement before and after the administration of standard therapy in patients with severe heart failure. Measurement of cTnT levels and symptom improvement parameters before treatment was carried out on the first day of the inpatient and measurement after therapy was carried out on the last day of the inpatient. Sampling was done by consecutive sampling and found 30 patients in the inpatient room of the SMF Cardiovascular Disease, Dr. Soetomo Hospital, Surabaya during the months of May-July 2017. The results of the study obtained the average cTnT levels before therapy 33.48 + 31.88 pg/ml and the average cTnT levels after therapy 46.32 + 52.68 pg/ml. Based on the statistical difference test with the Wilcoxon sign-ranked test, there was no significant change in cTnT levels (p = 0.318). On the parameter of clinical symptom improvement, there was a significant decrease in pulse, respiratory rate, blood pressure, and mean arterial pressure before and after administration of therapy (p <0.05). There was no change in troponin T levels before and after the administration of therapy meant there was no worsening of myocardial necrosis.

Abstract

The volume of internal organs, including pancreas, show potential health problems. Several medical conditions are associated with the volume of the pancreas. The study aimed to determine the pancreatic volumes using a computed tomography (CT) scan in normal Indonesian adults and to determine whether the age, sex, and body mass index (BMI) influence the measurement of pancreatic volumes. The study was conducted by 119 people aged between 20-77 years old. Pancreatic volume measurement was performed using the summation of area technique. Statistical analyzes used independent t-test and Pearson correlation test. The study showed a significant difference of pancreatic volumes between normoweight and overweight individuals with p=0.041 (p<0.05). The results showed a significant difference of pancreatic volumes between male and female with p=0.020 (p<0.05). The results showed a significant correlation between pancreatic volumes and age p=0.004 (p<0.05). These findings suggest that the change in pancreas volume with age, sex, and BMI is comparable among different ethnicities, which is also in line with other studies.

Abstract

Esophagoscopy is the standard examination standard for evaluation, diagnosis, screening and surveillance of esophageal diseases. Although it is often done, esophagoscopy costs a lot, is inconvenient, and risks complications, including cardiopulmonary complications because patients usually require routine sedation in the implementation of conventional esophagoscopic procedures. The purpose of this study is to get an overview of the results of the implementation of transnasal esophagoscopy in Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Division of Broncho-oesophagology, Dr. Soetomo Hospital, Surabaya, between 1 September 2012 and 30 April 2015. This study was a retrospective descriptive study with a population of all patients undergoing esophagoscopic examinations during this period. Data is taken from medical records of new patients undergoing transnasal esophagoscopy. Inclusion criteria were all patients who had been tested for transnasal esophagoscopy, and exclusion criteria were incomplete medical record data. There were 35 patients who underwent transnasal esophagoscopy examination at Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Division of Broncho-oesophagology, Dr. Soetomo Hospital, Surabayaduring the study period. The mean of patients who participated in the study was 54.17 ± 14.02. 23 male patients (63.89%), while 12 female patients or 34.11%. Indications of dysfagi are found in all age groups, most in the age group 51-70 years. Metastases in head and neck malignancies are found in the age group 31 - 50 years and 51 - 70 years. Indications for heartburn are found in the age group 21-50 years and 51-70 years. In conclusion, the results of transnasal esophagoscopic examination showed that most patients had a normal picture (60%) and a positive picture with an esophageal abnormality of 40%. The most common features are lesions in the mucosal esophagus lumen, scar, masses and stenosis.
