Abstract

Highlight: • Modification of radical mastectomy with flap fixation treatment in seroma production in breast cancer patients was analyzed. • The number of seromas from the drain removal time in patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy with flap fixation was reduced. Abstract: Seroma is the most common complication after mastectomy procedure. This study was conducted to analyse the treatment of flap fixation in seroma production after modified radical mastectomy in breast cancer patients. An interventional prospective clinical study in 35 female patients with breast cancer who underwent modified radical mastectomy with flap fixation in the period August-December 2018 and 35 patients without flap fixation through historical data of patient who underwent modified radical mastectomy in the period 2016-2017 at RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya. Data of characteristic patients will be presented descriptively and analyzed statistically using the appropriate test. The result of the statistical test using Chi Square with a 95% significance level obtained a value of p = 0.000 (p <0.05), it was said statistically that there was a significant relationship between the treatment of flap fixation and the time of releasing drain in this study. The treatment of flap fixation will reduce drainage time by <10 days. The results of the odds ratio (OR) obtained OR = 16 and CI: 95% (4.094 – 62.528) which means that the treatment of flap fixation will reduce the releasing time of the drain 16 times more effectively than not performing flap fixation. Correlation between the treatment of flap fixation and the time of releasing drain was considered to be moderately positive (Contingency Coefficient Chi Square = 0.476). There was a significant reduction in the number of seroma assessed from the time of releasing drain faster in patients who underwent modified radical mastectomy with flap fixation.

Abstract

Highlight: • A 32-year-old male patient suffered mediastinal non-hodgkin's lymphoma metastatic to the right atrium which mimicked right atrial myxoma. • The patient died of suspected mediastinal NHL thromboembolism that spread in the right atrium. Abstract: In this case report, the anatomical pathology results in the form of B cell type LNH, but at the age of 32 years and the risk factor in this patient was a former active smoker. In the anatomical pathology results, the results of the B-High Grade Cell Type LNH were also obtained. B-cell type non-hodgkin's lymphoma can be mutated in the MYC gene (v-myc avian myceloctomatosis viral oncogene homolog) and the BCL-2 and BCL-6 (B-cell lymphoma) genes. If this morphology is found, then the patient's prognosis is poor. Most of these patients were males and the incidence was in the mediastinal area. Mediastinal NHL could develop and enlarge to involve the heart and pericardium. The spread could occur directly and lymphogens. These metastatic tumors were often misdiagnosed with atrial myxoma. In this case report, exploration of the right atrium and open mediastinal biopsy was performed. An open biopsy of the mediastinum revealed a mediastinal mass that enlarged to enter the right atrium. Atrial myxoma was not found. Primary lymphoma growth could also occur in the heart. This condition was called primary cardiac lymphoid (PCL). This case was very rare and was often considered an atrial myxoma. The patient died 10 days after discharge from the hospital. While the patient was eating, the patient had a seizure and the patient was immediately taken to the emergency department of Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital, Surabaya, and entered the ER (Resuscitation) ER room, but the patient died after being assisted for approximately two hours. Most likely the cause of the patient's death was a thromboembolic tumor in the right atrium that was released, so that it entered the bloodstream of the brain, causing the patient to have seizures. It was suspected that the cause of the patient's death was the presence of a tumor thrombus that separated into an embolism from the right atrium due to the large size of the tumor. Patients suffering from high rate NHL had a greater percentage of suffering from tumor thromboembolism as many as 10.6% compared to the Low type and Hodgkins lymphoma (LH) (5.8% and 7.25%).

Abstract

Highlight: • The differences in intensity physical exercise mechanisms associated with increased irisin secretion in overweight and obese subjects were determined. • The secretion of irisin in the right intensity blood on obesity can be reduced because the calories were balanced. Abstract: Physical exercise is a non-pharmacological therapy that can secrete various types of myokines to treat obesity problems. One of the myokines that play a role is irisin. Irisin is a polypeptide hormone with 112 amino acid residues that are synthesized in skeletal muscle after the proteolytic precursor cleavage of fibronectin type III domain-containing protein 5 (FNDC5). The release of irisin in the blood circulation will stimulate the browning process in white fat tissue by inducing the expression of uncoupling protein-1 (UCP-1) through signaling p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38-MAPK) to increase energy expenditure, thermogenesis and reduce fat accumulation. This study described the differences in intensity of physical exercise mechanisms associated with the increased irisin secretion in overweight and obese subjects. This study was designed as a literature review that involved studies from research journals in the last 10 years concerning humans from some databases, such as Science Direct, PubMed, and Google Scholar. This study also discussed the relationship between the intensity of physical exercise and the synthesis, secretion, circulation, and regulation of irisin in preventing obesity.

Abstract

Highlight: • Aerobic exercise was reduced body fat and increased free fatty acids. • LICT and MICT decreased body fat and increased free fatty acids. Abstract: Overweight is fat imbalances can affect the health. It is one of the problems in many countries, especially Indonesia recorded an increase case in 2007 (8.8%) to 2013 (13.5%). Overweight categorized by 25-30 kg/m2 body mass index in units (Organization 2018). Figures overweight can be pressed to provide some treatments, such as aerobics sports activities. This study aimed to determine the effect of Continuous Low Intensity Training (LICT) and Moderate Intensity Continuous Training (MICT) to decrease body fat content (FM) and increase in free fatty acids (FFA) in overweight women. 18 female subjects completed the study 4X/week exercise LICT or MICT for 5 weeks. LICT and MICT performed for 30 minutes with an additional 5 minutes warm-up and 5 minutes of cooling down with LICT intensity of 60%-70% and MICT 70%-80% of maximum HR where both types of exercise using ergo cycle while measurement FM and FFA were measured before and after practice. LICT occurred decreasing in body fat and increasing in free fatty acids that significant pre and post LICT (p < 0.05). MICT occurred decreasing in body fat and increasing in free fatty acids that significant pre and post MICT (p<0.05). In the second comparison group (LICT and MICT) were decline against body fat and an increased in free fatty acids between workouts Low-Intensity Continuous Training (LICT) greater tendency than Moderate-Intensity Continuous Training (MICT) with delta FM (p = 0.120) and delta FFA (p=0.131) in which the value is >0.05. LICT and MICT was increase while body fat was decreased. The results of a comparison test occur list downward trend in body fat while in free fatty acids was increased.

Abstract

Highlight: • Ethanol extract of Garcinia mangostana L. peel reduce malondialdehyde. • Garcinia mangostana L. peel extract can increase non-radical products which impact in decreasing LDL cholesterol and increasing HDL cholesterol. Abstract: Atherosclerosis contributes to coronary heart disease which may lead to fatality. High cholesterol consumption, stress, and smoking can increase LDL cholesterol in the blood. Consumption of unsaturated fats, high fiber foods, exercise, quitting smoking, losing weight, and giving hypolipidemic drugs, especially herbs, can increase HDL cholesterol and decrease LDL cholesterol. Garcinia mangostana L. peel extract can decrease LDL cholesterol by increasing reverse HDL cholesterol transport to the liver. The study used post test control group design. This study was experimental laboratory research with population of hypercholesterolemic male white mice aged 3-4 weeks with 100-200 grams weight. The HDL and LDL cholesterol data were collected through an enzymatic method by spectrophotometer. This study used analysis of variance (Anova) with significance level of α <0.05. The experiment divided the subjects into positive and negative control groups with dosage variations of 50, 150, 250, and 350 mg/kgBW. Examination of hypercholesterolemia in white mice was conducted on the 8th day. The examination of HDL and LDL cholesterol given peel extract of Garcinia mangostana L. was conducted on the 22nd day. The analysis showed that giving Garcinia mangostana L. peel extract for various dosages could significantly decrease LDL cholesterol and increase HDL cholesterol (p <0.05). Peel extract of Garcinia mangostana L. that contained mangosteen could increase non-radical products that could prevent the transfer of ester cholesterol from HDL to VLDL which impact in increasing HDL cholesterol and decreasing LDL cholesterol.

Abstract

Highlight:• The PCC counseling effect using Poedji Rochjati Score Card (PRSC) on premarital knowledge about high-risk pregnancies was studied. • PRSC for preconception counseling is effective for women to improve knowledge about high-isk pregnancy. Abstract: Preconception care (PCC) is a health approach that includes promotive and preventive activities to detect risk factors and interventions carried out to expectant mothers by considering biological, behavioral, and social aspects that affect their health. This study studied the effect of PCC counseling using Poedji Rochjati Score Card (PRSC) on premarital knowledge about high-risk pregnancies. This study was quasi-experimental with 52 respondents divided into 4 groups, namely intervention and control groups, 2 groups with partners, and 2 groups without partners that were chosen through total sampling by applying inclusion and exclusion criteria. Knowledge was measured using pretest and posttest questionnaires. The intervention given was in the form of counseling using PRSC for ± 20 minutes. There were differences in knowledge between the intervention and control group among respondents without partners. Preconception counseling using PRSC was effective for women attending premarital health checks. Applying PRSC as media for counseling could improve knowledge in high-risk pregnancy that could be avoided.

Abstract

Highlight: • A young adult has activity-triggered atypical chest pain and diagnosed malignant RCA. • Congenital anomalies needed to be aware by cardiologists to help clinical practice. • Planning a treatment about management of the CAAs condition should be undertaken by the inter-specialist team. Abstract: We presented a case a young adult with activity-triggered atypical chest pain and diagnosed with anomalous origin of right coronary artery (RCA) from the left coronary sinus with an interarterial course between the aorta and the main pulmonary artery that was detected by CT coronary angiography. This anomaly has been called malignant RCA. Coronary artery anomaly is a congenital condition. Most of the cases remain asymptomatic. This condition is also one of the most causes of sudden cardiac death, because the coronary artery examination is not regularly done. Nevertheless, during high intensity activity, it could be symptomatic and might be lethal. Diagnosing coronary artery anomalies might be tricky and cardiologists must be aware of this. The CAAs condition is a rare situation. The CAAs condition is associated with sudden death, especially intense physical activity. There was no rigid guideline for the management of the CAAs condition, so that planning a treatment in the inter-specialist team should be done.
