Abstract

Until now the pathologic mechanisms of prurigo Hebra (PH) is still understood. Earlier study the genetic inheritance of PH showed the multifactorial pattern. Considering the genetic inheritance and the existence of allergic reaction to insects bite in all patients, might be the mechanisms followed hypersensitivity reactions. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the general and specific local inflammatory features of early and late lesions of prurigo Hebra (PH). Fifty biopsy specimens of early and late lesions of prurigo Hebra patients were processed with haematoxylin-eosin (HE) and immunoperoryde (lP) staining using monoclonal antibodies against specific inflammatory cells namely B cells, T cells, helper T (CD4+) cells, supressor T (CD8+) cells, Langerhans cells, and antigen presenting cells (APC) that expressed HLA-DR antigen. HE-stained specimens: In early lesions, PMN cells were few, while eosinophils were present in great quantity and independent of mast cells and plasma cells; this feature was similar to that of insect bite reaction. IP-stained specimens: In late lesions, the amounts of lympho-histiocytic infiltration consisting of T cells, CD8+ cells, HLA-DR-expressing APCs were greater than those of early lesions, although it was not statistically significant. An exception was for the CD4+ cells, whose number in early lesions was significantly higher. The ratio of CD4+ to CD8+ in early lesions was higher than in late lesions (3/1: 2/1). This suggested that CD4+ cells were predominant. B cells, which were normally absent, appeared in small quantity in both early and late Lesions. The presence of B cells was not statistically correlated with T cells or eosinophils. The number of Langerhans cells in late lesions was higher than in early lesions. There was a strong correlation (r=0.39) between T cells and HLA-DR-expressing antigen-presenting cells (APCs/HLA-DR). Those cells found in great qunntity suggested that PH patients usually expose to extrinsic factors. In some cases with severe condition, the presence of eosinophils was more profound and was statistically significant. It is conclude that immunohistopathological mechanisms of PH follow the mixed types (one and IV) hypersensitivity reaction.

Abstract

Analysis of serial C-reactive protein (CRP) levels was done to evaluate the effectiveness of antibiotic treatment in 35 suspected neonatal sepsis (SNS) patients who were hospitalized at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta. This cross sectional study was conducted from April to September 1999. Among 35 SNS patients, 18 had positive blood culture, 10 of which had positive CRP level at the time of diagnosis. Among 17 patients with negative blood culture, 9 had negative CRP level. Serial CRP in severe cases with positive CRP titer showed persistent high CRP level, and in those with negative CRP titer rose up to day 4 of treatment. On the other hand patients who were discharged and have negative blood culture demonstated low CRP level in day 4. This study confirms the benefit of serial CRP examination in the evaluation of antibiotic treatment in SNS.

Abstract

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) cases in Indonesia frequently associated with high serum prostate specific antigen (PSA). To explore possible factors that could increase serum PSA level, we performed a retrospective, cross-sectional study on 805 consecutive patients in Sumber Waras and Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospitals from 1994 to 1997. Clinical manifestations were evaluated and prostate biopsies were performed if indicated. Complete histopathological data were only available in 82 BPH patients with no urinary retention from 1998-1999 and a thin section of paraffin blocks of BPH patients which still could be found from 1994-1999 was analyzed using flow cytometer to obtain the S-phase fraction as a parameter of proliferative activity, From 805 patients, 461 (57%) presented with urinary retention and need to be catheteized. Catheteization significantly increased PSA level if compared to noncatheterized patients (16.3 vs. 6,8 ng/mL, p= 0,000). Another data of 82 uncatheteized patients from 1998-1999 has revealed that 79 patients (96.3%) had chronic prostatitis and 19 (23.2%) showed the presence of prostatic-intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) with an increase of PSA level (5.4 ng/mL). The S-phase fraction of BPH without PIN cases was significantly higher in cases with PSA > 4 ng/ml than patients with PSA < 4 ng/ml (I3.1% vs. 8.9%, p=0,008). As conclusion, the high serum PSA level was mostly due to urethral catheteization and increased prostate volume. There was a tendency of increasing PSA in subclinical inflammation and PIN. Cases with high PSA also showed high proliferative activities which is suggestive of mitogenic activity.

Abstract

Indonesia has about 210 million inhabitans and most of them live in rural areas, therefore in rural community it is estimated that a big number of hypertensive people can be found. However, few rural community-based studies have been conducted to identify hypertensive risk factors. This study aims to identfy some risk factors related to hypertension in rural areas. The data for this study came from the result of the field study done by the second year medical students of the Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia, Jakarta. The study was conducted on July 12, 2000 at 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM in a rural area, the Cijeruk subdistrict in Bogor regency. The subjects were selected randomly using neighborhood cluster. Interviews and blood pressure were taken at the houses of the subjects. The results of this study showed that people aged 40 years or over had an increase risk to suffer hypertension compared to the 17-39 year old group, and the risk was most prominent among the 55-59 year group (adjusted odds ratio = 21.62; 95% confidence intervals (CI) = 4.10-113.97). Compared to the subjects with normal body posture, those who were obese had more than 6.3-folds increase in the risk to be hypertensive (adjusted OR = 6.33: 95% CI = 2.62-15.29). In addition, those who discontinued antihypertensive drugs had almost 12-fold increase in the risk to be hypertensive relative to subjects who never take antihypertensive drugs (adjusted OR = 11.92; 95% CI = 4.61 -30.80). This study concluded that special attention should be taken to the elderly aged 40 years and over, to some one who discontinued antihypertensive drugs, and whom had light daily working load to prevent hypertension.

Abstract

To better understanding the demographic characteristics, admission time, clinical pattern, risk factors, stroke type, length of stay, and discharge outcome of hospitalized acute stroke patients in ASEAN member countries, ASEAN Neurological Association (ASNA) formed a Standing Commiltee for Stroke in 1996 and this is the first ASNA Stroke Epidemiological Study using the same stroke protocol. This prospective hospital based study was conducted in seven ASEAN countries (Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam) by participating neurologists from October 1996 to March 1997. Of the 3723 consecutive hospitalized stroke patients (2030 males and 1660 females) from 44 participating hospitals in this study ie Brunei (n=53), Indonesia (n=2065), Malaysia (n=300),Philippines (n=545),Singapore (n=232), Thailand (n=244) and Vietnam (n=284), the mean age was 59.0±13,8 years 16% of patients were younger than 45 years and 37% of patients were older than 65 years. There were no significant differences in age at onset among stroke subjects except in Vietnam (younger) and Singapore (older). The sex distribution showed a slight higher prevalence of women in Singapore and in the age group > 64 years. The mean adrnission time was 41.5± 87.0 hours, 19% of patients were admitted within 3 hours, 29% within 6 hours and 66% more than 6 hours (delayed admission) especially in Malaysia and Singapore (80% and 77% respectively). Motor disability was the most prevalent clinical feature in all countries and carotid bruit was the rarest (1%). Hypertension was the most common risk factor (68%) in all countries, followed by TIA (35%), smoking, diabetes mellitus, ischnemic heart disease and hypercholesterolemia. CT scan was performed on 76% of subjects. The diagnostic classification was non lacunar anterior circulation (32%), lacunar infarction (14%), hemorrhagic stroke (26%), SAH (4%). Mean length of stay was 11.4±11.8 days. Most of the patients discharged from the hospital were alive improved (57%) and mean death rate was 22%, highest in Thailand (45%) and lowest in Brunei (8%). This hospital based stroke data showed the recent characteristics of stroke pattern in seven ASEAN member countries and it will be very important data for health policy maker in these countries and for further cooperative researches in the future.

Abstract

A population study was done to know the profile of daily physical activity including sports, and its influence on major coronary risk factors in three districts of Jakarta using questionnaire, physicaL and laboratory examination, and 12 leads ECC. The questionnaire gave the data about physical activity (work load and sport), and smoking habit. Work load was divided into light, moderate and heavy. Sport activity was divided into regular (≥ twice a week, 20 minutes or more), irregular (≤ once or occasional), and no sport activity. In addition, blood pressure (hypertension was grouped according to WHO criteria), total cholesterol (regarded as hypercholesterolemia when > 200 mg%), and ECG were measured. ECG interpretation was done using Minnesota Code. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS. Out of 2400 people there were 2073(86.4%) respondents that consist of 1086 females and 987 males. The profile of physical activity as a whole showed 33.4% light, 50.7% moderate and 15.8% heavy activity. OnLy 22.5% of respondents had sport regularly, while 30.3% had sport irregularly, and 47.2% had no sport activity. The type of sport was walking (45.0%), callisthenic (22.0%) jogging/running (15.6%), badminton (6.5%), volley ball/soccer (4.1%), tennis (3.8%), and golf (0.1%). There was a significant difference in the prevalence of hypertension between people with heavy (12.0%), moderate (44.8%) and light work load (43.2%) (P<0.003), in the prevalence of hypercholesterolemia (13.2%: 50.8%: 36%) (P<0.0003), and smoking (19.7%; 44.1%: 36.2%) (P<0.00001), respectively. The difference also occurred in the prevalence of abnormal ECG (Q/QS, ST and T abnormalities) between people having regular sport (19.0%), irregular (22.7%), and no sport activity (58.3% (P<0.05). The number of respondents having enough physical activity (including regular sport) was relatively low. Therefore, promotion should be done as a preventive method to overcome cardiovascular risk factors. (Med J Indones 2001; 10: 34-41) Keywords: Sport, ECG

Abstract

The incidence of coronary heart disease (CHD) has significantly increased and has been associated to the high mortality rate in Indonesia. One important CHD risk is the abnormal lipid profile or dyslipidemia, but there are other risk factors that has been associated with CHD in Western population. In Indonesia, data on CHD risk factors are very limited and usually only available as hospital-based data. The aim of this study is to analyze the CHD risk profile in the private clinical practice setting and to determine the factors affecting CHD in dyslipidemic patients in Indonesia. This study is a cross-sectional survey which targeted physicians in 13 cities in Indonesia who regularly treat patients with dyslipidemia. The majority of dyslipidemic patients in clinical practice setting was the CHD high-risk group. Age, Iow HDL-C and hypertension were the most common risk factors. The prevalence of the risk factors and the proportion of dyslipidemic patients which belongs to the high risk group were comparable to the result of US (L-TAP) study.
