Abstract

Nasolacrimal duct obstruction is a disorder that is often found in children at the early age of birth. In most cases, the obstruction lies distal to the nasolacrimal duct as a result of a patent Hasner's valve. Epidemiological studies report that the prevalence of congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction ranges from 5% to 20% in early childhood. Clinical manifestations that can occur as a result of this obstruction are in the form of epiphora or tears that don't drain properly resulting in accumulation and overflow of tears. In addition, symptoms that arise can be erythema on the periorbital skin, upper and lower eyelids due to irritation originating from reflex rubbing due to teardrops and discharge with inadequate drainage. This case can be given conservative therapy in the form of massage of the lacrimal sac which has been proven in many studies with favorable results. This therapy can be given in the absence of further complications such as mucocele or dacryocystitis. Massage therapy used since 1923 is the Crigler Technique. There is a new technique devised by a pediatric ophthalmologist, Philip, who provides new information based on his experience. This writing uses the article review method using several sources obtained from journals and books. This paper aims to determine the understanding and conservative management of congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction so that the obstruction will disappear and prevent further complications.

Abstract

Pulmonology intervention has experienced rapid progress, especially in diagnosing and treating lung cancer. Pulmonology intervention itself can be defined as the science and art related to the ability to perform invasive procedures in the field of pulmonology both for diagnostic and treatment needs and for this requires additional training beyond the existing standard training programs in the field of pulmonary diseases. Diagnostic and therapeutic procedures included in pulmonary interventions are transthoracic needle aspiration (TTNA), transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA), rigid bronchoscopy, endobronchial ultrasonography (EBUS), laser bronchoscopy, electroendobronchial surgery, argon-plasma coagulation (APC), cryotherapy, airway stenting, balloon bronchoplasty, endobronchial radiation (brachytherapy), pleuroscopy (medical thoracoscopy), photodynamic therapy, percutaneous dilated tracheostomy, transtracheal oxygen indwelling and image-guided thoracic intervention. For nodules larger (>4 cm) and peripherally located, a CT-guided percutaneous approach with transthoracic needle aspiration (TTNA) showed high sensitivity and specificity of 90% and 97%, respectively. However, this procedure has a risk of causing a pneumothorax with an incidence that varies between 17% - 33%. Furthermore, if the size of the nodule is <1.5 cm, the success rate will be smaller, namely 74.4%. Likewise with mediastinoscopy which has been a standard procedure for determining the mediastinal stage in lung cancer, even though it shows a high sensitivity of up to >90%, but the risk of causing fatal complications is injury to the large blood vessels, nerves, trachea and bronchi and esophagus. (<0.5%) and complications of pneumothorax (2.5%).

Abstract

Extra pulmonary tuberculosis (extra pulmonary TB) is a TB infection that attacks organs other than the lungs and is also a complication of TB. Adaptive immune response plays an important role in TB patients, one of which is the role of lymphocytes as antigen-antibody specificity and monocytes as phagocytosis of pathogens. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the incidence of extrapulmonary TB patients with lymphocyte and monocyte levels in RSUD dr. H. Abdul Moeloek Lampung Province. This research is a type of retrospective analytic observational study with a cross-sectional research design which was conducted in December 2020 levels in RSUD dr. H. Abdul Moeloek Lampung Province by looking at medical records for the period January 2018-December 2019. The sampling technique was consecutive sampling and calculated using the Slovin formula with a total sample of 103 patients. The analysis used is the chi square test. Central nervous system TB patients totaled 80 people who had lymphocytopenia 66 people (82.5%) and normal lymphocytes 14 people (17.5%), in TB lymphocytopenic patients there were 23 people who had lymphocytopenia 14 people (60.9%) and normal lymphocytes 9 people (39.1%). As for monocyte levels, there were 80 central nervous system TB patients with normal monocytes 50 people (62.5%) and monocytosis as many as 30 people (37.5%), in TB lymphadenitis patients there were 23 people with normal monocytes 12 people (52 .2%) and monocytosis in 11 people (47.8%). The results of the chi square test on lymphocyte levels with a value of p = 0.028 and monocyte levels with a value of p = 0.373, which means that there is a relationship between the incidence of extra pulmonary TB and lymphocyte levels and there is no relationship between the incidence of extra pulmonary TB and monocyte levels levels in RSUD dr. H. Abdul Moeloek Lampung Province.

Abstract

Pterygium is one of the common ocular surface disorders. From two Greek words, the word "pterygium" has been derived: “pteryx” meaning wing and “pterygion” meaning fin. Usually, pterygium is asymptomatic apart from its appearance. Meanwhile, no special examination is needed to diagnose it, only a physical examination is needed using a slit lamp to diagnose this condition. A slit lamp for observing the eye using magnification and bright lighting. Medical treatment in modern times includes lubrication with artificial tear drops or decongestants to provide short-term comfort and a slight improvement in cosmetics. Topical NSAIDs, eye drop loteprednol, brings added comfort. Vasoconstrictive agents minimize redness and enhance the appearance and add antihistamines to the decongestant drops to help prevent the effect of histamine associated edema and itching. However, surgical treatment remains the preferred option. In patients with pterygium, the reasons for surgery are decreased vision due to visual axis encroachment, chronic pain, persistent inflammation, abnormal astigmatism, restrictive ocular motility, and cosmesis. Many surgical techniques have been used since past to present, though none is universally accepted because of variable recurrence rates. Some examples of surgery, namely the avulsion technique, Simple excision technique, The Bare Sclera Technique, Conjunctival Autograft, and Limbal Conjunctival Autotransplant (LCAT). However, combined between limbal conjunctival autograft with the adjunctive use of a prophylactic subconjunctival graft of the amniotic membrane can decrease the recurrence rate after surgery in an ethnically diverse population with a statistically higher risk for recurrence.

Abstract

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a common, preventable, and treatable disease characterized by persistent respiratory symptoms and limited airflow due to airway or alveolar abnormalities that are usually caused by exposure to harmful gases or particles. In addition, COPD causes deaths related to factors of old age and exposure to harmful substances. Symptoms can worsen into acute exacerbation COPD which can lead to death. The family approach in the management of acute exacerbation COPD helps to identify influential factors both clinically, personally, and psychosocially so that the management will be more comprehensive. Family doctor practice are evidence based medicine by identifying risk factors, clinical problems, and patient management based on patient problems with a holistic approach. This study is a case report. Primary data were obtained through history taking, physical examination, labs exam and home visits to assess the physical environment. Assessment based on a holistic diagnosis from the beginning to the end. Prior to the intervention, the patient's knowledge of the disease he suffered was lacking, curative treatment patterns, poor diet, infrequent exercise, and cachexia. The family's knowledge of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is still low.

Abstract

Alcohol is a source of free radicals that come out from outside of the body. Alcohol consumed during pregnancy can cause various teratological effects on the fetus, one of which is low birth weight (LBW). Plum as a food that contains a lot of antioxidants can prevents oxidative stress caused by alcohol. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of giving plum (Prunus domestica L.) extract on the fetal body weight of white rats (Rattus norvegicus) Sprague-Dawley strain in pregnant white rats (Rattus norvegicus) induced by alcohol. This study used Post-test Only Control Group Design using 30 pregnant rats divided into 5 groups. The KP group was a group of rats that was not given alcohol or plum extract. The KN group was exposed to 0.27 ml/day of alcohol for days 6-15 of pregnancy. The P1group was exposed to 15% alcohol 0.27 ml/day for days 6-15 of pregnancy and plum extract 40mg/day for 21 days of pregnancy. The P2 group was exposed to 15% alcohol 0.27 ml/day for days 6-15 of pregnancy and plum extract 80 mg/day for 21 days of pregnancy. The P3 group was exposed to 15% alcohol 0.27 ml/day for days 6-15 of pregnancy and plum extract 160 mg/day for 21 days of pregnancy. Data were analyzed using One-Way ANOVA and Post Hoc-LSD tests.
