Abstract

Objective: This study aims to compare the efficacy of docetaxel on PSA levels and to analyze the adverse events caused by docetaxel. Material & Methods: The study design was retrospective cohort. Participants were prostate cancer patients at Saiful Anwar Hospital who received androgen deprivation therapy with increased PSA level 3 times the nadir or 2 bone lesions or soft tissue lesions > 2cm. PSA levels were assessed monthly. Participants were grouped into 6 and 10 series regimens. Adverse events of nausea, diarrhea, alopecia, SGOT SGPT abnormailties, creatinine abnormalities, anemia, and neutropenia were observed. Statistical analysis was performed using a differential T-test. Results: A total of 32 participants were involved. The PSA levels between 6 and 10 series groups were as follows: 1st month (142.2 vs 28.24 ng/mL,p=0.000), 2nd month (101.78 vs 16.98 ng/mL,p=0.001), 3rd month (472.35 vs 13.95 ng/mL,p=0.439), 4th month (120.64 vs 4.0 ng/mL,p=0.180), 5th month (64.325 vs 24.6 ng/mL, p=0.015), 6th month (41.915 vs 20.7 ng/mL,p=0.497). Adverse events in the 6 and 10 series regimens were nausea (25% vs 81.25%), diarrhea (37.5% vs 50%), alopecia (6.25% vs 43.75%), SGOT SGPT abnormalities (25% vs 56.25%), creatinine abnormalities (6.25% vs 37.5%), anemia (18.75% vs 31.25%), leukocytosis (6.25% vs 0%), and neutropenia (25% vs 12.5%). Adverse events in 6 series regimen began to occur in 3rd series with 1 participant experiencing nausea, and the most were 3 participants experiencing diarrhea in 6th series. Adverse events in 10 series regimen began to occur in 4th series with 1 participant experiencing nausea, 1 participant experiencing SGOT SGPT abnormalities, 1 participant experiencing diarrhea, and the most were 4 participants experiencing nausea in the 9th series. Conclusion: The 10 series of docetaxel chemotherapy is not superior to 6 series. Adverse events are more prominent in the 10 series. Keywords: Docetaxel, PSA, adverse events.

Abstract

Objective: This report aims to document the occurrence of testicular torsion in adult males, explicitly highlighting a case involving a 43-year-old man. It emphasizes the importance of maintaining awareness of this condition within the productive age group. Case(s) Presentation: We present a rare unilateral late-onset left testicular torsion case in a 43-year-old male. Testicular torsion is predominantly observed in youth and teenagers, making its diagnosis infrequent in mature individuals. The patient experienced acute testicular pain along with atypical symptoms, which are crucial for the accurate diagnosis of adult testicular torsion. Discussion: Testicular torsion is the most prevalent surgical emergency concerning the testis, primarily affecting younger populations. This case underscores that adult males are also susceptible to this condition, necessitating a high index of suspicion among healthcare providers. Notably, acute testicular pain in adults may not always manifest in a typical manner, complicating timely diagnosis and treatment. Conclusion: This case serves as an essential reminder for healthcare professionals to remain vigilant regarding the potential for testicular torsion in adult males, particularly those in the productive age group. Early recognition and intervention are critical to preventing complications associated with ischemia, underscoring the need for heightened awareness and prompt assessment in such scenarios. By doing so, healthcare providers can significantly improve outcomes for affected patients. Keywords: Adult, testicular torsion, left testicular.

Abstract

Objective: This review aims to assess tadalafil's efficacy and safety in managing BPH-LUTS, providing insights for clinical practice. Material & Methods: A systematic search strategy was conducted across several electronic reference databases (PubMed, Google Scholar, Proquest, and Cochrane) and included articles published between 2014-2024. Duplicate publications, review articles, and incomplete articles were excluded. Results: Database search yielded 302 articles, which were systematically eliminated, leaving 10 relevant articles. A total of 1.645 patients were involved in the 10 included studies. Of the 10 included studies, 9 were single-center studies and 1 was a multi-center study. Of all the studies, 7 were randomized controlled trials, 2 were observational trials, and 1 was a cohort study. From the meta-analysis test, it was found that the increase in IPSS 12 weeks after therapy was no different when administering tadalafil and tamsulosin. Conclusion: In conclusion, tadalafil monotherapy demonstrates comparable efficacy to tamsulosin in treating LUTS/BPH, with its approval stemming from its effectiveness in managing ED. The IPSS score between tadalafil and tamsulosin is considered similar statistically. Studies suggest synergistic effects when combined with alpha-blockers, offering promise for patients with concurrent conditions. Safety findings support its utility across diverse populations. Keywords: BPH, LUTS, tadalafil.

Abstract

Objective: To describe the bacteriologic profile and antimicrobial-susceptibility patterns of urine cultures from pediatric UUTD patients treated at Dr Soetomo General Hospital, Indonesia, between 2020 and 2023. Material & Methods: This retrospective descriptive study reviewed medical records of 154 inpatients aged 0–17 years with confirmed UUTD. Demographic data, cultured species, and antibiotic susceptibilities were extracted and reported as frequencies. Results: From 154 bacterial isolates, Gram-negative bacteria dominated (78.6%) compared to Gram-positive (21.4%). The most frequent species were Escherichia coli (31.8%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (16.9%), and Klebsiella pneumoniae (12.3%). Antibiotics with the highest sensitivity against major uropathogens were amikacin (83.7%), piperacillin-tazobactam (77.6%), and meropenem (81.6%). In contrast, gentamicin and nitrofurantoin demonstrated lower sensitivities, 61.2% and 71.4%, respectively. Severe hydronephrosis occurred in 52.6% of cases and was associated with more resistant bacterial isolates. Conclusion: Urinary tract infections in pediatric UUTD patients at Dr. Soetomo General Hospital are predominantly caused by Escherichia coli, with the highest antibiotic sensitivities observed for amikacin, meropenem, and piperacillin-tazobactam. Gentamicin and nitrofurantoin should be administered based on culture results, especially for uncomplicated cystitis. Regular antibiotic resistance surveillance is essential to ensure effective empirical treatment. Keywords: Urine Culture, hydronephrosis, pediatrics, antibiotic, Escherichia coli.
