Abstract

Background Post-stroke cognitive impairment is the leading cause of post-stroke morbidity and mortality worldwide. This impairment is often associated with ischemic stroke and intracerebral hemorrhage. Cognitive impairment could affect attention, memory, language, orientation, and executive and social functioning domains. Case We reported a male patient, 45 years old, Javanese, who came with confusion and memory impairment. When asked a question, the patient tends to think and answer slowly with a wrong response. He also felt weakness in the right half of the body, slurred speech, pursed lips, and had been diagnosed with ischemic stroke. One week after he was sent home, patient still had difficulty arranging words to form a sentence and could not work. Cognitive function screening showed impairment in attention and memory domain with a MOCA-INA score of 19/30. Patients received antihypertensive therapy, dual antiplatelet, statin, and cognitive stimulation. His condition improved with this treatment. Conclusion Early identification of cognitive impairment could reduce morbidity in stroke patients.

Abstract

Although safe and fast, air travel can cause problems in diabetic passengers and pilots. In fact, most diabetes-related emergencies can be prevented during the flight. Diabetic passengers and pilots can fly safely with proper control and planning. During air travel, diabetes sufferers are faced with unhealthy diet choices, limited access to medicines and health services, disrupted drug dosing intervals, and exposure to hypobaric aircraft cabin environments. Disruptions to routine dosing intervals are most severe when travelers cross multiple time zones. Traveling east or west will shorten or lengthen the interval between scheduled doses. This increases the possibility of inadvertent, premature, or delayed administration of antihyperglycemic therapy. In this review, we have discussed in detail about flights in diabetic passengers and some issues to be considered during and after the flight especially in high temperature.

Abstract

Dengue infection remains a major global health problem. This study aimed to determine factors associated with the severity of dengue infection among adult patients treated at Sanjiwani Gianyar Regional General Hospital in 2023. An analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted using consecutive sampling. A total of 100 adult patients with confirmed dengue infection were included. Severity was classified as Dengue Fever (DF) and Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) based on WHO criteria. Chi-square analysis and crude odds ratio (OR) estimation were performed. Age >60 years was significantly associated with severe dengue (OR = 2.94; 95% CI: 1.25–6.92; p=0.014). Female gender was also associated with higher odds of severe dengue compared to males (OR = 2.33; 95% CI: 1.05–5.15; p=0.039). Secondary infection status showed the strongest association with severity (OR = 5.40; 95% CI: 2.24–13.04; p=0.001). In conclusion, age, gender, and infection status were significantly associated with dengue severity. These findings may assist clinicians in identifying patients who require closer clinical monitoring.
