Abstract

Highlight: • There was an increase in the accumulation of B3 waste in health centers during the COVID-19 pandemic. • The knowledge and skills level of health center staff in medical THM waste management before and after medical THM waste management training were determined. • Medical THM waste management training was increasing the knowledge and skills level of health center staff. Abstract: The generation of medical toxic and hazardous material (THM) waste at public health centers tends to increase during the Covid-19 pandemic. Only 6.89% of the health centers have medical waste management practices that meet the standards. Medical waste management practices not in accordance with the procedures can be a source of infection, even though only 56% of health workers have good knowledge and attitudes in solid medical waste management. For this reason, it is necessary to increase the skills of health center staff in managing medical THM waste during the Covid-19 pandemic. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of knowledge and skills of health center staff in medical THM waste management before and after medical THM waste management training. The training participants were 20 health center staffs who filled out a pretest questionnaire to measure their level of knowledge and skills prior to the training. The training materials include THM waste, medical THM waste, medical THM waste management and medical THM Temporary Storage. After the training, a post-test was conducted to measure the knowledge and skills scores of the trainees. The results of this study indicated that there was a significant difference in knowledge before and after training (p < 0.05). The average knowledge score before training was 6.2 (sufficient knowledge) and after training 8.15 (good knowledge). There was a significant difference in skill scores before and after training (p <0.05). The average skill before training was 6.3 (adequate) and after training 8.65 (good). In conclusion, there was an increase in the skills of health center staff in managing medical THM waste during covid-19 pandemic after participating in medical THM waste management training by the Community Service Team, Department of Public Health and Preventive Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Airlangga, Surabaya, Indonesia.

Abstract

Highlight: • Assessing the survival rate in castration-resistant prostate cancer was descriptived. • PSA level between survivor and non survivor was significant but not for PSA nadir level, TTN and TTC. • Initial PSA level can predict survival prognosis rate of castration-resistant prostate cancer patients. Abstract: High mortality rates was often found in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Our aim on this research was to assess the PSA level and time to PSA nadir as a prognostic tool for survival in CRPC patients. Several factors are considered to be useful as prognostic marker in CRPC patients. This study was a descriptive study assessing the survival rate in castration-resistant prostate cancer. Evaluation data included sex, age, initial PSA level, final PSA level, time to PSA nadir (TTN), time to CRPC progression (TTC), and survival status. A total of 24 patients with CRPC were evaluated in this study. There was significant difference found of initial PSA level between survivor (445.7 + 165.6 ng/mL) and non-survivor (200.7 + 144.9 ng/mL). There were no significant differences were also found in PSA nadir level, TTN and TTC between survivor and non-survivor groups. This study revealed that there was association between initial PSA level on survival rate of CRPC patients. Initial PSA level could be used to predict survival prognosis in CRPC patients.

Abstract

Highlight: • Dermoscopy is a practical, non-invasive and accurate method for reducing the number of unnecessary excision of benign skin neoplasms. • Knowledge about vascular pattern and description setting can lead to a prompt benign skin neoplasm diagnosis. Abstract: Benign skin neoplasms are commonly found in the population. It has a well-differentiated and slow growth nature. The patients often come seeking treatment when the tumor has developed into malignancy. This usual delay in diagnosis and therapy frequently happens because early-stage mass has not generated any complaints by the patients. Detection and monitoring of benign skin neoplasms can be carried out earlier and more effectively if the clinician or dermatologist has the knowledge of distinguishing benign from malignant lesions. The histopathological examination can help to establish the diagnosis, but this method is invasive and requires an extended amount of time. Dermoscopy is a practical, non-invasive and accurate method for early detection of skin disorder which reduces the number of unnecessary excisions of benign skin neoplasms. Knowledge of the vascular pattern and arrangement description, combined with the additional dermoscopic feature can lead to the prompt diagnosis of benign skin neoplasms.

Abstract

Highlight: • Sebaceous cyst or epidermoid cyst is a benign capsulated tumour on the scalp region, face, neck, and trunk that subepidermal nodule filled with keratin. • Proliferating Pilar Tumours (PPT) are rare tumours was found in hair follicle. • Sebaceous cyst diagnose on facial hairline tumour turned out to be a rare Proliferating Pilar Tumour (PPT). Abstract: Sebaceous cyst, also known as an epidermoid cyst, is a subepidermal nodule filled with keratin and it is a benign capsulated tumor. It is often located on the scalp region, face, neck, and trunk; but can be found elsewhere such as the scrotum, genitalia, fingers, and buccal mucosa. Proliferating Pilar Tumors (PPT) are rare tumors. It is derived from the external root sheath of the hair follicle. These tumors are like irregular subcutaneous nodules and often appear on the scalp. This case report was about a 59 years old woman who came to the hospital following excision of a frontal lump elsewhere, with a sebaceous cyst as the initial diagnosis. From the histopathologic examination, grossly there was a whitish and greyish lump with a soft outer surface. Microscopically, there were malignancy signs with areas with keratinization. The tumor formed a solid pattern of enlarged cells with moderate to marked nuclear pleomorphism with vesicular nuclei, prominent nucleoli, and abundant pale eosinophilic to clear cytoplasm. There was also much free keratinous debris noted and numerous foci of calcification identified within the tumor. Mitotic figures with abnormal forms were frequently seen. The final diagnosis after the histopathological examination was Proliferating Pilar Tumour with focal malignancies. In conclusion, facial hairline tumor differentially diagnosed as a sebaceous cyst turned out to be a rare Proliferating Pilar Tumor (PPT). Following histopathological confirmation, the patient was referred for further management by a specialist team.

Abstract

Highlight: • AKT or protein kinase B increase protein synthesis and control the degradation of proteins. • Satellite cells was provided remarkable ability to regenerate skeletal muscle. • Stimulation of protein synthesis is effective therapy to maintain muscle mass, prevent muscle wasting to reduce risk sarcopenia and improve quality of life in the elderly. Abstract: Muscles have an important role as a regulator of glucose and triglyceride metabolism. Some researches show the correlation between skeletal muscle mass and metabolic diseases, such as diabetes. Skeletal muscle mass decrease occurs due to chronic illness or physiological process of aging, thus increasing the risk of metabolic diseases as well as motion difficulty in the elderly. Skeletal muscle mass depends on balanced protein synthesis and degradation, controlled through a variety of signal transduction pathways including the AKT. AKT or protein kinase B increases protein synthesis through the mTOR and GSK3β and controls the degradation of proteins through FoxO transcription factors. Another factor that has an alleged role in the regulation of skeletal muscle is the satellite cells which provide remarkable ability to regenerate skeletal muscle. A comprehensive understanding of the biomolecular mechanism of muscle mass regulation is important to develop effective treatment or prevention of muscle atrophy in many cases, either caused by pathological conditions, such as chronic diseases, or the process of aging.

Abstract

Highlight: • Adiponectin is an important protective factor for cardiovascular disease and increased insulin sensitivity. • Ketogenic diet effect on adiponectin level in mice besides decrease weight gain was determined. • The difference in serum adiponectin level and body weight is uncorrelated. Abstract: Ketogenic diet is a popular diet to reduce weight gain quickly. This diet has become a lifestyle . The ketogenic diet has been reported to affect adiponectin level, although it is still contraindicated. Adiponectin is a biomarker for metabolic disease that plays an important role as a protective factor for cardiovascular disease and increase insulin sensitivity. This study aimed to explore the effect of the ketogenic diet on adiponectin level in mice, besides decrease weight gain. This study was an experimental laboratory study with a randomized post-test-only control group design. Fourteen male mice (20-30 g) aged 2-3 months were divided randomly into K1 (n=7, standard diet) and K2 (n=7, ketogenic diet), were given diet for eight weeks, ad libitum. Body weight was measured at the pre and post-intervention, whereas adiponectin level were measured at the post-intervention using ELISA. The statistical analysis using SPSS version 16. The Shapiro Wilk test was used to determine normality, Independent T-Test was used to determine mean difference for normal distribution, Mann Whitney Test was used to determine mean difference for abnormal distribution, and Pearson Correlation was used to determine correlation. Difference (∆) of body weight on K1 (12.00±6.26) g, K2 (1.29±7.41) g with p=0.02. Serum adiponectin level of K1 (0.082±0.014) µg/ml and K2 (0.096±0.008) µg/ml with p=0.035. This study showed ketogenic diet-induced higher serum adiponectin level and slower weight gain. There is no correlation between the difference in body weight and serum adiponectin level (p=0.403).
