Abstract

Background: Vulvovaginal candidiasis is one of the most common causes of complaints of vaginal discharge, which is mostly caused by Candida albicans. The common diagnosis of vulvovaginal candidiasis is microscopic and culture examination. However, the availability of examinations is limited at the private clinic, and for culture examinations, the cost is high and results take several days. The point-of-care test (POCT) lateral flow immunochromatographic assay (LFIA) is a tool that can detect Candida albicans antigens, but this diagnostic test has never been carried out in Indonesia. Purpose: to know the validity of POCT LFIA Candida albicans for the diagnosis of vulvovaginal candidiasis caused by Candida albicans in women with complaints of vaginal discharge. Methods: Cross-sectional observational study with a diagnostic test design, using vaginal discharge samples. Vaginal discharge samples were subjected to POCT LFIA examination with the Medomic Candida albicans/ Trichomonas vaginalis/ Gardnerella vaginalis Antigen Combo Test KitÒ and Candida spp culture. Result: POCT LFIA Candida albicans had a sensitivity of 100%, specificity of 89.9%, accuracy of 90.32 %, LR (+) 9, LR (-) 0, PPV 50%, and NPV 100% against Candida spp. culture. Conclusion: The POCT LFIA Candida albicans can be used to diagnose vulvovaginal candidiasis caused by Candida albicans in women who complain of vaginal discharge.

Abstract

Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a multifactorial chronic, frequently recurrent, inflammatory skin condition. The development of IgE-mediated food allergies and food sensitivity are both associated with atopic dermatitis. Cow’s milk allergy (CMA) caused the most common hypersensitivity reaction during childhood; however,  the prevalence in adults is around 0.5%. Patients with AD use the Skin Prick Test (SPT) to evaluate the specific sensitization process. Purpose: This study aimed to assess cow's milk allergy among adult AD patients using local allergen extract SPT, standard SPT, and specific IgE (sIgE), as well as evaluating the conformity and relevance of the test results. Methods: Using consecutive sampling technique, the study was conducted twice on 45 adult AD patients with a one-week interval between administrations. Result: Local cow's milk SPT showed 4 positive results, and standard SPT showed 5. No sIgE test was positive. Local SPT was negative for 86.67% of individuals without a history of suspected cow's milk allergies. Standard SPT results were positive for 2.22% of individuals with a history of suspected cow's milk allergies and negative for 86.67% of those without. The relevance between local and standard SPT was shown to be substantial (k = 0.384, p = 0.000). Conclusion: The result of the local cow’s milk SPT and the patient’s history had good conformity, and the relevance with standard SPT was significant in diagnosing cow’s milk allergy among AD patients.

Abstract

Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic recurrent skin disease that is very complex due to impaired skin barrier function in the form of xerosis, chronic eczematous lesions, and itching, commonly found in infants and children. Pathogenesis is thought to be the interaction of genetic factors, immune dysfunction, epidermal barrier dysfunction, and the role of the environment and infectious agents. Approach the disease by performing etiopathogenesis algorithms, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment. Based on the 2013 Asia-Pacific consensus, AD management guidelines using the 5-pillar principle have long been used. Currently, the European consensus in 2018 has developed new guidelines for AD management. Purpose: To provide an updated treatment for AD. Review: The ethiopathogenesis of AD is influenced by genetics, skin barrier disorders, and immune response disorders. Updated management of the European consensus in 2018 includes education, avoidance of precipitating factors, psychosomatic counseling, optimization of skin barrier function with moisturizers, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial administration, allergen-specific immunotherapy, complementary and alternative drugs, phototherapy, and controlling the itch-scratch cycle with anti-itch in pediatric and adult AD patients. AD may affect patients’ quality of self-esteem. In general, patients expect higher. Conclusion: AD affects the psychosocial aspects of patients. Updated management of AD adequately improves the quality of life.

Abstract

Background: Isotretinoin, a first-generation nonaromatic retinoid approved in 1973 for severe nodulocystic acne treatment in the United States, has historically been associated with mucocutaneous adverse events. Case: The case involves a 22-year-old male with chronic plaque psoriasis who, after eight weeks of isotretinoin use, experienced swelling, pain, and bleeding in the periungual area of multiple fingers. Dermoscopic examination and follow-up assessments, including images, demonstrate the progression and eventual complete resolution of the periungual pyogenic granuloma following discontinuation of isotretinoin and topical application of fusidic acid and betamethasone combination. Discussion: The discussion delves into potential mechanisms linking isotretinoin to increased skin fragility and granulation tissue development, drawing on insights from experts like Baran and Piraccini. Additionally, we explore the role of angiogenic factors, particularly vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), in the context of psoriasis and its potential contribution to the development of pyogenic granuloma, with the aim of providing a comprehensive understanding of the underlying processes leading to this unique adverse event. Conclusion: In conclusion, this case report underscores the importance of recognizing and promptly addressing rare adverse events associated with medication errors. The successful resolution of the periungual pyogenic granuloma highlights the significance of timely intervention and appropriate management strategies in mitigating adverse outcomes.

Abstract

Background: Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that commonly begins during childhood. Most atopic dermatitis patients may experience symptoms that continue into adulthood. Itching is the characteristic symptom of atopic dermatitis. Over time, patients’ itching can lead to sleep disturbances. In fact, every human being requires sleep to maintain the balance of metabolism, calories, temperature, and immunity. If a person often lacks sleep, the risk of obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, heart disease, stroke, deterioration of mental health, and premature death will increase. Purpose: To analyze the relationship between the severity of atopic dermatitis and sleep quality in Widya Mandala Surabaya Catholic University (WMSCU) teaching hospital patients. Methods: This is an analytic study with a cross-sectional research design. This study used the purposive sampling technique as its sampling method. A dermatologist used the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) instrument, to assess the severity of atopic dermatitis in the samples, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire to assess their sleep quality. Result: The Mann-Whitney test showed a p value of 0.348 (p> 0.05). Conclusion: There is no significant relationship between the severity of atopic dermatitis and sleep quality in WMSCU teaching hospital patients.

Abstract

Background: Scabies is a highly contagious skin disease that often occurs in densely populated settings, especially among children, including those in boarding schools. Purpose: We aimed to investigate the risk factors for scabies infestation in boarding schools. Methods: This crosssectional analytic research was conducted at the Imam Syuhodo Modern Islamic Boarding School. This study consisted of four main steps: survey questionnaires, a pre-test, one-on-one doctor examination, and a brief discussion. The collected data was analyzed using the ChiSquare test and bivariate analysis. Additional multivariate analysis was performed to determine the most influential risk factors. Result: The total sample for the study was 490 students (242 males and 248 females). The overall prevalence of scabies in the boarding school was 16.12%. Bivariate analysis showed a significant relationship between male sex, age (<14 years), history of itchiness, and sharing belongings. In the multivariate analysis, sex (OR 5.56, 95% CI 2.5911.93) and age (OR 2.09, 95% CI 1.23-3.56) turned out to be the most significant factor for scabies. Dermatology specific quality of life index assessment showed more severe negative effects on students with scabies (p<0.001). Discussion: Scabies prevalence was more common in younger males patients. The prevalence of male students was very disproportionate, which needs further attention when designing an intervention model. Students in boarding schools dealing with scabies have worse impacts on their daily lives, which could impede their academic progress.
