Abstract

In order to have a profile of cytosolic estrogen and progesterone receptors in either endometriotic tissue or endometrium in patients with and without endometriosis a cross-sectional study was performed involving 43 infertile women. They consisted of 31 (72.09%) endometriosis and 12 (27.91%) non-endometriosis cases; their average age was 32 ±4 years and 32 ±3 years respectively, with the average length of menstrual cycle 31 ±8 days and 29 ±1 days respectively. The endometriotic tissue was obtained by excision during ope-rative laparoscopy procedure, while the endometrium was obtained by biopsy following hysteroscopy procedure. These procedures were conducted within the periovulatory period (on Day 13-18 of the cycle).The sex steroid receptor content in the cytosol was measured quantitatively using enzyme-immunoassaymethod, and calculated as sex steroid receptor/cytosol protein (fmol/ml cytosol). It was found that the average cytosolic estrogen receptor concentration in the respective tissues were 512.99fmol/ml in the endometriotic ovary compared with 2369.17 in normal ovary and 632.18 fmol/ml in the endometriotic peritoneum compared with 9607.61 fmol/ml in normal peritoneum;while 99.28 fmol/ml and 608.33fmol/ml in the endometrium of women with endometriosis and those without endometriosis respectively. The average cytosolic progesterone receptor concentration found in the respective tissues were 50.64fmol/ml in the endometriotic ovary compared with 6469.42 fmol/ml in normal ovary and1631.40 fmol/ml in endometriotic peritoneum compared with 12466.99 in normal peritoneum, while21.26 fmol/ml and 599.61fmol/ml in the endometrium of women with endometriosis and those without endometriosis respectively. There is no significant difference in the receptor concentration between each tissue according to its topographic origin. However, this result may assume that the responsivity on hormonal treatment in endometriosis cases willdepend on the cytosolic sex steroid receptor content in the sick tissues, and the peritoneal lesions will possibly give better response than those in other sites. A further clinical trial is necessary. (Med J Indones 2005; 14: 133-41)

Abstract

At present, there is no standardized method for Mycobacterium tuberculosis drug susceptibility testing (DST) among laboratories in Indonesia. Since January 2001 to January 2004 we have tried to establish the method of 25-well culture plates with middlebrook's media (Drug Susceptibility Culture Plate (DSCP) method) used by the Dutch Supranational Reference Laboratory at the Institute of Public Health and the Environment (RIVM), Bilthoven, Netherlands. Our experience showed that this method potentially gives better result as it can be very well standardized, faster and provides detailed MIC (Minimal Inhibitory Concentration) values. Data from 364 isolates that have been tested by DSCP method showed that resistance to INH, rifampicin, ethambutol, and streptomycin were 21.4%, 19.8%, 15.7%, and 16.5% respectively. Multidrug resistance were found in 13.2% isolates. (Med J Indones 2005; 14: 142-6)

Abstract

Drospirinone is a new generation of progestogen that possesses antimineralocorticoid effect. Progestogen of this type has been used as a component in combined contraceptives. The combined contraceptives of old generation contained progestogen component of testosterone derivative. Progestogen of this type does not have antimineralcorticoid effect, such that it could cause fluid retention. As a result, women who used combined pills of this type often complained of headache, breast pain, calf pain, increased body weight and blood pressure. Owing to its androgenic effect, combined contraception pills that contained testosterone-derived progestogen may cause acne and oily face. Combined contraception that contains drospirinone does not cause headache, breast pain, calf pain, increased body weight and blood pressure. Drospirinone has such a strong anti-androgenic nature that it does not result in acne and oily face. In addition, combination of ethinylestradiol and drospirinone can be used for treating pre-menstrual syndrome and menstrual pain. Drospirinone does not affect lipid and carbohydrate metabolism.

Abstract

Germ cell tumours of the central nervous system infiltrating the ipsilateral extracranial tissues are not a common presentation. A case of intracranial germ cell tumour with extracranial extension in a four month old infant is reported. The patient had undergone excision of the extracranial lesion followed by combination chemotherapy. Twelve months after the completion of the treatment the patient is doing fine and is on regular follow up. (Med J Indones 2005; 14: 179-83)

Abstract

Blast crisis (BC) transformation in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) can involve each differentiation lineage of the hematopoietic system, i.e. granulocyte, monocyte, erythrocyte, megakaryocyte, and lymphocyte lineage. The lymphoid blast crisis (BC) leukemia cells usually belong to B-lineage, commonly having the phenotype of Pre-B stage of the B-lineage, in which cell-surface immunoglobulin (sIg) is not yet expressed. In contrast, T-lineage BC of CML is extremely rare. The objective of this study is to describe the fenotype, fusion transcript of bcr-abl, TdT, and cytoplasmic CD3 in T-lineage BC CML cases. Case report study. This report shows a simple summary of 4 cases of T-lineage BC of CML which have been collected in the phenotypic and genotypic analysis study for 17 years (1987-2004). In all cases, the chromosomal analysis revealed the presence of t(9;22)(q34;q11) at presentation. Cell surface analysis were done at diagnosis. Cases’ mononuclear cells stored as 10% DMSO were retrieved to be performed reverse transcription (RT) PCR BCR-ABL multiplex to demonstrate the presence of the fusion transcript of bcr-abl. RT-PCR was also performed for detecting the expression of cytoplasmic CD3ε and terminal deoxynucleotydil transferase (TdT). The results of cell surface antigen (CSA) at presentation showed that 1 case was CD7+, CD5-, and CD2-; 1 case CD7+, CD5+, and CD2-; and 2 cases CD7+, CD5+ and CD2+ indicating that all these T-lineage BC of CML cells show the phenotype of pre-(pro-) thymic stage phenotype. In the present study, two cases showed b2a2, one e1a2, and one negative bcr-abl transcript. The RT-PCR revealed the presence of CD3ε mRNA in all cases, and TdT mRNA in only one case. These results can constitute a basis for the future analysis of T-lineage BC of CML from now on. (Med J Indones 2005; 14: 184-9)

Abstract

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of irrigating fluid temperature on core body temperature changes in patients undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). A cross sectional study was conducted on 32 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) who underwent TURP at our institution between September 2003 and January 2004. Patients were randomized to one of two groups. Standard group consisted of 16 patients who received room temperature irrigating fluid (± 23.6 0C) throughout TURP. Isothermic group consisted of 16 patients whose procedure was performed using warmed irrigating fluid (± 37.2 0C). The irrigating fluid used for both groups was aquabidest. The age, resection time, weight of resected prostate, amount of irrigating fluid used, temperature in the operating theatre, core body temperature at beginning and at conclusion of TURP were recorded for each patient. The t test was used for comparison between both groups and a p value of 0.05 or less was considered significant. The result of this study showed a decrease of core body temperature during TURP, using either room temperature or warmed irrigating fluid (both p = 0.000). None of the patients in either group demonstrated any criteria of hypothermia. The average decrease of core body temperature in standard group (0.99 0C) was greater than in isothermic group (0.750C), but it was not significantly different (p > 0.05). In conclusion, our study revealed that using either room temperature irrigating fluid or warmed irrigating fluid during TURP could decrease core body temperature at approximately similar level, with no incidence of hypothermia.

Abstract

Hormonal contraception is related to change in the metabolism of some nutrients that may lead to an increase in body weight. The aims of this study is to assess the risk of obesity in hormonal contraceptive users in the District of Kulon Progo, Jogjakarta, Indonesia. A cross sectional study was used to determine the prevalence of obesity among users of contraception. A systematic cluster random sampling, using villages as clusters, was used to choose 647 users of contraception in Kulon Progo. A hundred and two obese cases and 102 control, matched-for-age and socioeconomic status, controls were included in the case control study used to evaluate the risk of obesity among users of hormonal contraception. The prevalence of obesity among users of contraception in Kulon Progo was 15.9%. Users of hormonal contraception has a increased risk for obesity, OR: 9.4 (95% CI: 1.1 - 81.5). Users of combination pills faced the highest risk, followed by users of injected progesterone depot, while the risk in implant users was the same as that in users of non-hormonal contraception. The risk of obesity was significantly higher after 7 years of hormonal contraception use. The risk of obesity was neither related to energy intake nor expenditure. The increased risk of obesity in users of hormonal contraception was still significant after controlling for age, parity, initial weight, socioeconomic status, energy intake and expenditure, and parental obesity. We conclude that the risk of obesity is higher in users of hormonal contraception compared to the non-hormonal ones. Users of combination pills face the highest risk of obesity.

Abstract

The objective of this study was to obtain information on the survival rate of advanced cervical cancer patients with renal impairment (ACCRI) and its prognostic factors. In addition, it is hoped that by this method the scoring system for predicting the death of ACCRI patients hopetully could be obtained. Design of the study used was retrospective cohort study. Data collected were retrieved from medical records of ACCRI patients from 1 January 1998 to 31 December 2003 at Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo National Central General Hospital, Jakarta, with a total sample of 70 cases. The results of the study showed that mean survival of all ACCRI patients was 8.2 months, mean survival at sixth month was 39%, and mean survival at one year was 3.2%. Median survival was 5.3 months. Prognostic factors affecting the survival of ACCRI patients included histopathological type (adenosquamous cell and cell differentiation), cortical thickness of the kidney less than 1 cm, and nephrostomy.

Abstract

HIV infection causes qualitative and quantitative reduction of the T helper (Th) subset of T lymphocytes, facilitating opportunistic infection. One of the common opportunistic infections among HIV/AIDS patients is Candida infection in the oropharynx and esophagus. Detection of increased Candida colonialization is not always easy, CD4 count is a parameter that could be used as reference. The fact is there's only few laboratory can provide CD4 count. This study is a cross-sectional correlative study to determine the relation between total lymphocyte count as a much more applicable laboratory parameter and the intensity of Candida colonization in the oropharyngeal cavity of patients with HIV infection/AIDS. It was performed in the outpatient ward and inpatient ward of Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, from August 2004 to January 2005. The selected study subjects underwent interview, physical examination and had their blood samples and gargle samples taken. 60 study subjects were recruited, consisting of 52 males (86.7%) and 8 females (13.3%). The mean total lymphocyte count was 1194.53 cells/μL. Oropharyngeal candidiasis was found in 44 subjects (73.3%). There is a trend of higher Candida colonies number with lower total lymphocyte count despite no significant correlation between total lymphocyte count and the number of Candida colonies in the oral cavity of patients with HIV infection/AIDS. There is significant different between total lymphocyte count in positive and negative Candida colonies. (Med J Indones 2005; 14: 147-51)
