Abstract

Background: Chronic plantar ulcers in leprosy (CPUL) increase morbidity, increase medical costs, cause loss of productivity, and decrease quality of life. CPUL is a severe complication of leprosy disease with a 10-20% incidence. In general, CPUL consume a significant amount of time to heal. Green tea extract contains high amount of Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). EGCG functions as antiinflammatory, antimicrobial, and immunomodulator. This suggests that EGCG is effective for dermal wound treatment by facilitating reepithelialization. Purpose: To investigate the effect of topical EGCG 1% on the CPUL healing process. Methods: The topical EGCG 1% were applied every three days for eight weeks. Size of the ulcers, side effects and possible complications were monitored weekly. Result: There were significant clinical and statistical differences in the size and depth of the ulcers (p=0.000), as observed in the EGCG group. There was no side effect and complication found. Conclusions: Topical EGCG 1% was effective for CPUL healing. Sixty three point six percent of the ulcers were clinically healed, 31.8% demonstrated improvement, and 4.6% no effect was observed.

Abstract

Background: Psoriasis is an inflammatory, chronic, and recurring skin disease that affects patient’s quality of life. Environment, drugs, and infections in the form of antigen and toxin such as Candida spp. are assumed responsible for triggering and exacerbating psoriasis. Purpose: To compare the prevalence of skin colonization of Candida spp. on psoriasis vulgaris patient and control. Methods: This study was observational analytic research involving 33 psoriasis vulgaris patients and 33 healthy individuals. They were matched up based on sex, age, and lesion location. Swab of skin lesions on the Koebner area of both groups was cultured on CHROMagar media. Candida spp. was later identified and the colonization was calculated. Result: Candida spp. was found on 51.5% of lesions in psoriasis vulgaris patients and 21.2% in the control group with a significant difference of p < 0.05. The average colony number of Candida spp. in psoriasis vulgaris group was lower than the control group with no significant difference of p > 0.05. The predominant Candida spp. in the psoriasis vulgaris and control groups was Candida krusei, which were 35.5% and 85.6%, respectively. No significant difference between sex, age, period of complaints, age onset, degree of severity (Psoriasis Area and Severity Index), and therapy history, with positive culture of Candida spp. Conclusion: There was no difference in the number of Candida spp. colonization in the psoriasis vulgaris group and the control group. However, the culture positivity of Candida spp. in the psoriasis vulgaris patients was higher than in the control group.

Abstract

Background: Mycetoma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the skin that can extend to the fascia, tendons, muscles, and bones. Caused by a bacterium called actinomycetoma and a fungus called eumycetoma are responsible for mycetoma, both of which must be distinguished because they require different medical therapy. Eumycetoma is a localized disease, chronic, and growing slowly. Most of eumycetoma patients had delays in seeking medical care. Purpose: To provide an overview and discuss various aspects of eumycetoma, including its epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis, classification, clinical picture, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and therapy. Review: Eumycetoma infection begins as infectious agents enter through the skin with a minor trauma caused by objects contaminated with fungi, forming granular or granulomatous lesions with tract and sinus in there. The infection can spread from the site of inoculation into the muscles and bones. The diagnosis is based on anamnesis (chronic and painless), the triad of tumefaction, draining sinuses and grains, and laboratory investigation. It’s a difficult case, often recur and difficult to be surgical excisison, so that the best first option therapy is the combination of itraconazole and terbinafine itself as an alternative to surgical therapy at least 6 months. Conclusion: Eumycetoma is an infection caused by a fungus with granulomatous lesions with sinus formation and grains in it. The best first option therapy is the combination of itraconazole and terbinafine although it’s still an early case.

Abstract

Background: Oral candidiasis is caused by the mycotic activity of Candida albicans present in the oral cavity, and it is one of the most common opportunistic infections found in patients with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). The growing resistance and side effects to common antifungal drugs have promoted herbal essential oils as antifungal agents in recent years. In this study, essential oils (EO) of Rosmarinus officinalis (Lamiaceae) were examined for in vitro antifungal activ­ity against Candida species. Purpose: To evaluate the antifungal activity of essential oils of Rosmarinus officinalis (Lamiaceae) and nystatin using the microdilution technique by determining the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and the minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC) of Candida spesies. Methods: This was an experimental laboratory study with a post-test-only design conducted in Dr. Soetomo General Academic Teaching Hospital, Surabaya. Forty isolates consisted of twenty isolates of Candida albicans and twenty isolates of Candida non-albicans were collected. The isolates were tested for antifungal activity using the microdilution on 96-well plates. Result: There was a significant difference from the results of the MIC concentration of rosemary essential 100% to 6.25% microdilution method between nystatin and rosemary essential oil (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The antifungal activity of rosemary essential oil was better than nystatin that the lowest MIC value, which was 6.25%, has been obtained the microdilution method. The minimum fungicidal concentration of rosemary essential oil was 25%, while the minimum fungicidal concentration nystatin was higher than 100%.

Abstract

Background: Snakehead fish has been associated with wound healing due to its high albumin content. Albumin can accelerate the inflammatory process so that tissue repair will be faster. Lack of albumin protein causes a person tend to experience prolonged wound healing. Purpose: This study aims to prove the effect of snakehead fish extract on the number of macrophages and blood vessels on the inflammatory reaction of skin wound tissue in rats. Methods: Laboratory experimental design with a total sample size of 27 male rats have undergone incisions, divided into 3 random groups: control group was given aquadest, treatment group 1was given aquadest and 50% extract of snakehead fish, and treatment group 2 was given 100% extract of snakehead fish. The rat’s skin wound tissues were taken on day 5 and observed under the microscope. The average number of macrophages and blood vessels on granulation tissue that formed at the base of the wound were counted and then performed data analysis. Result: In this study, we found a down wards trend in the average number of macrophages and blood vessels in treatment group 1 and treatment group 2. The control group and the treatment group 2 showed a significant difference, however, between the other groups did not show significant difference. Conclusion: There is a significant effect of giving 100% snakehead fish extract on decreased macrophages and blood vessels in the inflammatory reaction of skin wound tissue.
