Abstract

Objective: To report a glioblastoma (GBM) case preceded by a hemorrhagic stroke.Methods: This case reported a 53-year-old male presenting at at Murni Teguh Memorial Hospital, Medan, Indonesia, with a chief complaint of an altered mental state. The condition had been worsened for two weeks. On anamnesis, he was identified to have  experienced intracerebral hemorrhage in January 2020. A follow-up head computed tomography scan was conducted in September 2020, showing a normal condition of the brain. Other oncogenic risk factors were not found. Due to convulsion in October 2020, the patient underwent a magnetic resonance imaging examination showing a cystic right temporoparietooccipital lesion and cerebral edema. Craniotomy tumor removal surgery was performed while the tumor was further examined for histopathological findings. The tumor was diagnosed as glioblastoma with microvascular proliferation and palisading necrosis.Results: There was some associations between hemorrhagic stroke and glioblastoma development.Conclusion: GBM preceded by hemorrhagic stroke is a rare case that can be diagnosed thoroughly by complete clinical and adjunct examinations.

Abstract

Objectives: To present a rare case of Congenital Complete Heart Block (CCHB) in the setting of post-cesarean delivery of an asymptomatic young patient.Methods: A 30-year-old female patient complained of sudden weakness after C-section delivery with spinal anesthesia. She presented a slow heart rate and Complete Heart Block (CHB) on electrocardiogram (ECG). After one week of observation, the ECG still presented a CHB condition. A permanent pacemaker (PPM) with DDDR mode was then installed for this patient.Result: The etiology of CHB, especially at a young age, is unclear, hence challenging. A patient with a CCHB is difficult to diagnose, especially without any previously related symptoms. This abnormality is usually detected during routine screening not related to cardiovascular disease. The patient in this case study presented an ECG of persistent CHB from the time this patient was admitted until one week after observation. The echocardiography showed normal results. Other modalities to confirm diagnosis and evaluate the prognosis of a CCHB should be done.Conclusion: Establishing the etiology of CHB in young patients is challenging. The implantation of PPM is needed because the condition is permanent, regardless the etiology. However, implanting a permanent pacemaker is not always an easy decision, especially in young patients.

Abstract

Objective: To determine the characteristics of the risk factors of cardiovascular death in hypertensive patients in Indonesia based on the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) longitudinal data.                                  Methods: This was a retrospective descriptive study on secondary data from the IFLS population starting from2000 and was followed up in 2007 and 2014. The inclusion criteria for participation were15 years old or older, had hypertension, had cardiovascular events as thecause of death, and had complete data in both IFLS 3 (2000) and IFLS 4 (2007).Results: The IFLS 5 (2014) reported 918 deaths among eligible subjects  with complete data, both in IFLS 3 (2000) and IFLS 4 (2007). Of those, a total of 608 subjects experienced hypertension started from 2000 and/or 2007. Of these deaths, 112 were due to cardiovascular events. Cardiovascular death was more common in males (58.9%), age of >65 years old  when died (47.3%), had poor socioeconomic status (24.1%), and with normal body mass index (54.9%).Conclusion: Male, late adulthood, low level of education, normal BMI, and poor socioeconomic status represented the greater risks of cardiovascular death among hypertensive patients in Indonesia.

Abstract

Objective: To establish the relationship between plasma matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 levels and diastolic functional abnormalities using the E/e’ measurement in concentric type Hypertensive Heart Disease (HHD) patients.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from November 2014 to January 2015 in population with hypertension and concentric Left Ventricular Hypertrophy (LVH). Diastolic function was assessed with E/e’ measurement using echocardiography. The relationship between the two variables was analyzed using Spearman correlation.Results: Thirty-nine subjects (14 males, 35.9%) with the average relative wall thickness of 0.7(±0.15), average body weight of 63.45 (±12.97) kg, average height of 155.51 (±7.12) cm, average body mass index of 26.23 (±5.08) kg/m2, and mean age of 55 (±10) years were fit to be included in the analysis. The median systolic blood pressure was 140 (110-220) mmHg while the median diastolic blood pressure and median left ventricular mass index were 80 (70-110) mmHg and 119.24 (103.05-205.69) g/m2, respectively. The median MMP-9 was measured at 108 (4-460) ng/mL and the median E/e' was 10.99 (6.2-20.42). There was a significant positive correlation between MMP-9 and E/e' (r = 0.416, p = 0.004).Conclusion: There is a significant moderate positive correlation between the MMP-9 level and diastolic dysfunction in concentric LVH patients.

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the effect of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on fibroblast proliferation as a part of the tendon healing cascade. Methods: This was an unpaired comparative experimental animal laboratory study with one control groups and two experimental groups, each consisted of 10 Sprague Dawley rats. The experimental groups 1 and 2 were given infrared irradiation for 15 minutes and 30 minutes per day, respectively, after having their achilles tendon partially cut. Histological assessment was carried out to assess the fibroblast density in healing site after three weeks on intervention. Results: The median values of fibroblast density in group 1, group 2, and control group were 1, 2, and 1, respectively, with a p-value of  0.014. No significant difference (p = 0.123) was identified on Mann-Whitney test between the fibroblast density of group 1 and group 2. The same was also true forgroup 1 and control group (p = 0.315). A significant difference was found between group 2 and control group (p = 0.005). Conclusions: A regime of LLLT irradiation of 30 min/day for two weeks (1080 J cm-2) improves the fibroblast proliferation amidst tendon healing in a partially injured achilles tendon in a rat model, which is not seen in the regime with a 15 min/day duration. This emphasizes the significance of irradiation time to improve tendon healing, despite the deficient understanding of the mechanism.

Abstract

Objective: To determine the mechanism of erythropoiesis that led to anemia using the Immature Reticulocyte Fraction (IRF) parameter in various clinical phases of dengue fever.Methods: This study was a comparative analytical research using secondary data derived from the Dengue-associated Endothelial Cell Dysfunction and Thrombocyte Activation (DECENT) research. The study was performed at Dr. Hasan Sadikin Hospital Bandung, Indonesia from March 2011 to March 2012. Patients were grouped into fever, critical, recovery, and convalescent phases and a healthy control was established. Data collected were analyzed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov normality test, followed by Friedman test and Mann-Whitney post hoc test.Results: There were 244 subjects participating in this study. The median IRF for all subjects was 4.8% with an IQR of 2.4-8.1%. The values of Immature Reticulocyte Fraction in fever-phase, critical-phase, recovery-phase, convalescent-phase and healthy-control were 1.8% (IQR of 0.5-2.85%), 3.6% (IQR of 1.8-5.0%), 7.05% (IQR of 4.08-11.85%, 7.3 % (IQR of 3.95-9.3%) and 4.1% (IQR of 2.2-6.6%), respectively. There was a significant difference in IRF between groups (p<0.05).  The immature Reticulocyte Fraction in fever phase was significantly different from the IRF in other phases and healthy controls (p<0.05).Conclusions:There are changes in erythropoiesis activities detected through the IRF in various clinical phases of dengue infection. Erythropoiesis suppression occurs mainly during the fever phase and starts to be restored in the critical phase. In the recovery and convalescent phases, the erythropoiesis activities increase.  This is the first study describing IRF in multiple phases of dengue disease.

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the association of malnutrition with latent tuberculosis (TB) among chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients on hemodialysis (HD).Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted at the Hemodiaylisis Unit of Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, Bandung, Indonesia. Subjects were patients aged >18 years who had undergone HD twice a week for at least three months. Patients suspected of active tuberculosis (TB), malignancy, or immunocompromised were excluded. Latent TB was diagnosed using the interferon-gamma release assays (IGRA). Malnutrition was defined by a malnutrition inflammation score (MIS) of less than 5. All data including age, sex, CKD etiologies, and laboratory findings were obtained and recorded in a case report form.Results: A total of 120 subjects were involved in this study. Subjects with positive, negative, and indeterminate IGRA results were 39.2%, 56.7%, and 4.2%, respectively. There was no significant differences in subjects characteristics between positive and negative IGRA subjects.  The MIS>5 was shown to have no statistically significant association with positive IGRA subjects (OR=3.47, 95%CI 0.93–12.93).Conclusion: Malnutrition based on an MIS score of less than 5 is not statically associated, but clinically associated, with latent TB. Further causal inference study to investigate these associations is needed.

Abstract

Objective: To describe the use of computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) for diagnostic purposes and percutaneous catheter-directed thrombolysis (PCDT) as a treatment choice for high-risk pulmonary embolism (PE) patients.Methods: This case report describes a case of an elderly female presented with dyspnea, cough, fever, and chest pain. No significant medical history was identified.Results: CTPA was conducted and showed multiple thrombus with significant stenosis in several branches of pulmonary artery. Initial anticoagulation was administered without delay. Patient then underwent PCDT to remove the thrombus. No post intervention symptom and systemic complications were noted.Conclusions: Computed tomography pulmonary angiography is useful as the standard imaging modality to help evaluating suspected pulmonary embolism. Percutaneous catheter-directed thrombolysis is indicated to treat high-risk patients with high risk of bleeding.
