Abstract

A cross-sectional study was done to see the possible association of plasma lipid peroxides in the elderly with age and other factors. Plasma lipid peroxides is a product of free radical reactions which according to the latest theory of aging is the cause of aging process. Lipid peroxides were also found high in coronary heart disease. Four hundred forty relatively healthy elderly, age 55-85 years, were randomly chosen from free living elderly under guidance of health care centers (PUSKESMAS) in Jakarta. Anamnesis and physical examination were done in the morning in the health centers. Blood samples were taken in fasting conditions, plasma lipids and lipid peroxides were measured according to standard methods. There was an age difference of lipid peroxides level in the elderly, which increased with age up to 70 years old. Elderly 70 years old and over had low plasma lipid peroxides. The level was not related to high plasma lipids. Higher level was found when more chronic degenerative diseases were found. (Med J Indones 2005; 14: 71-7) Keywords: lipid peroxides, aging

Abstract

Numerous factors, such as VEGF and intra-placental oxygenation, can influence placental angiogenic activity. Early in the normal gestation period, β-hCG enhance VEGF activity to induce angiogenesis. The aims of this study were to identify the correlation between β-hCG concentration in placental culture and placental angiogenic activity in pre-eclampsia. Ten placenta samples from women with pre-eclampsia and l0 from controls (normal pregnancy) were collected. All subjects agreed to participate in this study and signed an informed consent form. β-hCG concentration in supernatant of placental culture was measured by Microparticle Enzyme Immunoassay (MEIA) and placental angiogenic activity was measured by endothelial cell migration toward placental explant (score 0-4). The results showed that the median score of placental angiogenic activity in pre-eclampsia was significantly higher than in normal pregnancy (p<0.05). Concentration of β-ahCG in pre-eclampsia was significantly higher than in normal pregnancy (p<0.001). hCG concentration in placental culture was positively correlated to placental angiogenic activity both in pre-eclampsia (r=+0.50) and in normal pregnancy (r=+0.57). Althouglt the correlations were weak, β-hCG is considered one of the factors that influence placental angiogenic activity.

Abstract

Congenital Absence of the Portal Vein (CAPV) is a rare anomaly in which the intestinal and splenic venous drainage bypasses the liver and drains into the systemic veins through various venous shunts. We present a case of a 32-year-old woman with this malformation, the patient experienced hematemesis and melena repetitively and had splenomegaly and hypersplenism. The angiography demonstrated absence of portal vein. Splenectomy was performed to reduce the pressure of the veins around stomach and to correct the hypersplenism. In endoscopy examination six months after surgery, the esophageal varices had disappear and the size of gastric varices had decrease.

Abstract

Tetanus, an infection by C.tetani continues to be a major health problem in the developing world. The course of the disease is typically prolonged, requiring weeks to months of supportive management to resolve. Several studies have been conducted to determine which factor/s really influenced the outcome of tetanus. Factors such as severity of spasms, age, sedation and tachycardia were found to significantly influence mortality. Patients now surviving the initial acute phase of their illness, but new problems have emerged autonomic dysfunction and hospital acquired pneumonia (often with multiresistant organisms) are now the commonest causes of death. This serial cases report presents six selected cases of tetanus, three patients acquired secondary pneumonia during treatment, among the three, two patients are elderly age 70 and 72 years old. Both of the presented patients died during treatment in the hospital. (Med J Indones 2005; 14: 117-21) Keywords : tetanus, pneumonia complication

Abstract

Following laparoscopic myomectomy, uterine rupture during pregnancy or delivery in the area of the scar is a very rare but dangerous complication. Individual cases of uterine rupture during pregnancy are described in the literature. Case report of uterine rupture during delivery in a patient who had previously undergone laparoscopic myomectomy. In the case presented here, the patient conceived 6 months after an 3.5 cm intramural myoma, had been laparoscopically removed. No symptoms suggesting uterine rupture were observed during the pregnancy, but in the first stage of delivery the condition of the patient deteriorated and symptoms of oligaemic shock developed. A laparotomy was performed, which showed the presence of 2100 gr fresh dead fetus in the abdominal cavity and ruptured uterine muscle in the scarred area about 5 cm. In patients who have previously undergone a laparoscopic myomectomy, there is some risk of uterine rupture at delivery. This is also the case where unappropriate suturing of the uterine muscle had been required. (Med J Indones 2005; 14: 113-6) Keywords : delivery, infertility, laparoscopic myomectomy, uterine rupture.

Abstract

Perimenopausal menopausal hemorrhage can be due to by a variety of causative factors. One of its dangerous causes is atypical hyperplasia and endometrial carcinoma. There are a number of risk factors for the occurrence of endometrial carcinoma. The group that has this risk belongs to high-risk group. In this high-risk group, it is necessary to have a method to identify the changes in endometrial abnormality. One of the alternatives is the examination of endometrial cytology. The objective of this study was to evaluate the sensitivity, specificity and correlation test between endometrial cytology and endometrial histology. This study was a diagnostic test of cytological examination of the endometrium as compared with endometrial histology. Endometrial cytology was performed with a modification of cytubrush and IUD shell. Specimen was dissolved into the centrifuged NaCl, and its deposits were then processed for cytological examination with Papanicolaou and Giemsa staining. After the taking of cytology, the process was continued with curettage of the endometrium, and the specimens were processed for cytological examination. Both of them were examined by anatomic pathologist. Statistical analysis used diagnostic test using histological examination of curetage specimens as gold standard. During the period of study 45 study samples were collected, among which 12 (26.66%) were endometrial adenocarcinoma, 6 (13.33%) with atypical hyperplasia, 11 (24.44%) with non-atypical hyperplasia, 15 (33.33%) were samples without abnormality, and one sample with endometritis. Actual correlation value was 57.8%, correlation because of possibility 3.38%, and correlation not because of possibility 54.42%, potential correlation not because of possibility 96.62%, and Kappa value 0.56. It was concluded that cytological examination of the endometriurn with cytobrush could be employed as a screening method in the abnormalities of endometrial thickness, with sensitivity of 62.5% and specificity of 62.2%.

Abstract

There are several methods for diagnosing ovarian carcinoma, such as gynecological examination, ultrasonographic examination, and tumor marker examination. However, all these combinations have not yielded high specificity antl sensitivity results. For this reason, it is necessary to perform other examinations to enhance both specificity and sensitivity, and one of them which is of interest to be studied is cytological examination of uterine cavity. By cytological examination of uterine cavity, it is hope that malignant cells originating from ovarian malignant tumor can be found. Discovery of ovarian malignant cells is possible because of peristaltic mechanism in the fallopian tube and negative pressure from uterine cavity, that makes possible the transportation of ovarian malignant cells into uterine cavity through the tube. The objective of this study is to understand the sensitiviry and specificity of cytological examination of uterine cavity in detecting ovarian malignancy. This stucty was a diagnostic test with histological examination as the gold standard, to understand sensitivity, specificity, positive prediction value, and negative prediction value of cytological examination of uterine cavity. A total of 30 cases were included in the study. A nurnber of factors enhanced positive results in cytology of uterine cavity. Those factors were stage and ascites. The more advanced the stage, the greater the positive results, and the presence of ascites increased positive results. On diagnostic test, sensitivity of uterine cavity cytology was 48%, specificity 60, positive predictive value 85.7%, and negative predictive value 18.8% respectively. In conclusion, cytological examination of uterine cavity could be used as one of the methods in assistirtg the diagnosis of ovarian carcinoma.

Abstract

Noisy and vibrating bajaj, a public transportation in Jakarta, is a potential risk in inducing hearing and balance problems. Bajaj drivers in the Jakarta area were chosen by consecutive sampling and examined medically in the Neurotological Subdivision of the ENT Department of the Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta. Hearing and balance impairments were then diagnosed from audiometric and posturographic tests. The study was carried out from March 2000 until October 2001. A number of 350 bajaj drivers participated in this study. There were 97 subjects without hearing and balance impairments, and 96 subjects suffered from hearing and balance impairments. Compared to drivers aged less than 40 years, those aged 41 years or more had a four-fold increased risk of developing hearing and balance impairments [adjusted odds ratio (OR)=3.90; 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.67-9.01. Drivers working 9 hours or more a day had an increased risk 2.3 times of developing hearing and balance impairments compared those working less than 9 hours a day (adjusted OR=2.32; 95% CI=I.22-4.41). Furthermore, when compared to those who had been working for 1-5 years, those who had been working for 5 years had an increased tendency of developing hearing and balance impairments. Those who had been working 21-30 years had a seven-fold increased risk of developing hearing and balance impairments (adjusted OR=7.11; 95% CI=1.88-26.92). To minimize hearing and balance impairments bajaj drivers are recommended to work less than 8 hours a day.
