Abstract

Filariasis is a contagious disease caused by worms of the genus Filaria which transmitted through the bite of various species of mosquitoes. In Indonesia, the existence of filariasis cases are still very concerning. Jati Sampurna and Jati Karya villages in Pondokgede Sub-district, Bekasi District, West Java have been known as filariasis endemic area. Length of stay is presumed as one of many factors that affects filariasis occurrence in those villages. This study aimed to determine the distribution of anti-filarial IgG4 on the region and its comparison with the length of stay and residence status. This study was based on secondary data. Secondary data were obtained from primary research data done by cross-sectional method. These data were used to assess the correlation of filarial infection risk factors in pregnant women living in endemic areas based on the distribution of anti-filarial IgG4 in Pondok Gede, Bekasi district, West Java. The study showed that there was an increase in anti-filarial IgG4 against residence status (p=0.017) and a positive correlation between the number of anti-filarial IgG4 with length of stay in years (p=0.003).

Abstract

Colorectal carcinoma has high morbidity and mortality rate worldwide, in which over 90% are adenocarcinoma. Colorectal carcinoma is one of the most cancer that metastasize to the lymph node. Angiogenesis have an important role in tumor growth and metastasis. Hypoxia is the trigger factor for angiogenesis. Hypoxia induced factor-1 (HIF-1) is one critical protein directly reacting to hypoxia. HIF-1alpha, a HIF-1 subunit, is an important regulator of angiogenesis. This study analyzed HIF-1a expression in colorectal adenocarcinoma with and without regional lymph node metastasis. This study was to prove that HIF-1a has a role in regional lymph node metastasis in colorectal adenocarcinoma. An analytical observational study was conducted on thirty formalin fixed paraffin-embedded colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues from Anatomic Pathology Laboratory of Dr. Soetomo Hospital. Detection of HIF-1alpha expressions were performed with immunohistochemistry method, using HIF-1alpha antibody. It were statistically analyzed using Mann-Whitney and Kruskal- Wallis methods. There were no significant differences in the expression of HIF-1alpha in colorectal adenocarcinoma with or without lymph node (LN) metastasis (p>0.05). As a conclusion, this study showed that HIF-1alpha has no role in LN metastasis in colorectal adenocarcinoma.

Abstract

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is usually caused by multilevel atherosclerotic disease, typically in patients with a history of cigarette smoking, diabetes mellitus, or both. Intermittent claudication (IC), an early manifestation of PAD, commonly leads to reduced quality of life for patients who are limited in their ambulation. Percutaneous intervention for peripheral artery disease has evolved from balloon angioplasty for simple focal lesions to multimodality techniques that enable treatment of severe arterial insufficiency. Especially for high-grade stenoses or short arterial occlusions, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) should be the method of first choice followed by the best surgical procedure later on. To achieve good long-term efficacy, a close follow-up including objective tests of both the arterial lesion and hemodynamic status, surveillance of secondary preventive measures and risk factor control is mandatory.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to prove the differential effect of administering the mangosteen Rind extract due to lowering the blood sugar levels of Winstar white male rats induced by streptozotosin (STZ). This study used a randomized design of the ramdomized posttest only control group design. The sample consisted of 4 groups with a sample size of 7 animals each group of rats. All samples were prepared STZ induction of diabetes with a single dose of 50 mg/Kg BW through intraperitoneal (IP). K0 (control group; given 1% CMC 1 cc/day), K1 (treatment group 1; given 0,054 mg glimepiride/200 grBW, K2 (treatment group 2; given mangosteen Rind extract 50 mg/Kg BW), K3 (treatment group 3; given the mangosteen Rind extract 100 mg/Kg BW). Timing of therapy in each group was for 7 days. Shapiro-Wilk normality test (a=0.05) in the BW D variable data, pre-post STZ GDP and D GDP. Testing homogeneity used Levene's test. When data distribution was normal and homogenous, it used an ANOVA deferential test. When data distribution was normal and inhomogeneous, it proceed to apply T-test with 2 free samples. The results: 1) There were significant differences between K0 D GDP with K1 (p=0.015), K0 to K2 (p=0.003) and group K0 to K3 (p=0.002), 2) Whereas no difference was shown in the K1 with K2 (p=0.442), K1 to K3 (p=0,401) and K2 to K3 (p=0.878). Conclusion: The administration of mangosteen Rind extract doses of 50 and 100 mg/kg bw/day did not differ in lowering blood sugar levels compared with glimepiride administration of a dose of 0.054 mg/200 grBW rat/day. Mangosteen Rind extract dose of 100 mg/kg bw/day and 50 mg/kg bw/day did not provide a significant difference in lowering blood sugar levels.

Abstract

Broken nerves could regenerate when exposed to simple injuries by using a nerve conduit that has appropriate physiological and mechanical ability to support the nerves regeneration around the fissure of trauma. One of the biopolymer for the conduit composition is chitosan because it is biocompatible, biodegradable, non-toxic, and has similarity structure as natural glycosaminoglycans. The aim of research is to synthesize chitosan with variation of Degrees of Deacetylation (DD) and characterize the DD influence on mechanical properties and biocompatibility. Research design is prospective observational. Chitosan was treated with a decrease in the DD method and an increase in the temperature with the strength of alkaline solution, which was NaOH solution with concentrations of 5%, 20%, 35%, and 50% within 2 hours with a heating temperature of 95°C. The results of each DD variation were 23.24, 46.55, 53.48, and 55.06. It was characterized by tensile test with tensile strength values of 0.25 - 1.18 MPa. The degradation test results tend to decrease with the increasing concentration of NaOH proving that samples are biodegradable. The surface morphology of samples shows a pore range of 61.52 μm - 220.3 μm. The best result is the chitosan sample with 35% NaOH because due to the tensile characteristic and a pore in accordance with normal standard. Tensile strength is around 0.41 MPa - 3.69 MPa and pore size around 40 μm – 250 μm to accelerate nerve regeneration. The results are expected to provide alternative solution of nerve conduit development for peripheral nerve defects.

Abstract

Preeclampsia is a multifactorial syndrome in pregnancy whose cause is still unknown. Several proangiogenic and antiangiogenic mediators such as Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) and Nitrite Oxide (NO) play important roles in preventing preeclampsia. VEGF can increase NO level that lowers maternal blood pressure, improves endothelial function and reduces placental hypoxia in preeclampsia. Recombinant VEGF 121 is expected to be an option in the prevention and treatment of preeclampsia. This experimental study used mice (Mus musculus) as the model. The objective of this study was to observe the effect of recombinant VEGF 121 in increasing the level of nitric oxide in mice (Mus musculus) model of preeclampsia. This was an experimental analytical study with Randomized Control Trial (RCT) design. The study enrolled 27 pregnant mice (Mus musculus) which met the restriction criteria divided into 3 groups. The first group (K1) were 9 normal pregnant mice. The second group (K2) were 9 pregnant mice of preeclampsia model without treatment. The third group (K3) were 9 pregnant mice of preeclampsia model receiving recombinant VEGF 121 therapy. The independent variable was the administration of recombinant VEGF 121 and the dependent variable was the serum NO level. Statistical analysis was performed by using anova statistics. NO level in the first group (K1) was 1.746±0.347, with minimum value of 1.00 µM, and maximum value of 2.28 µM, CI (1.479-2.013).  NO level in second group (K2) was 1.167±0.380, with minimum value of 0.64 µM, and maximum value of 1.94 µM, CI (0.875-1.460). NO level in the third group (K3) was 2.164±0.556, with minimum value of 1.56 µM, and maximum value of 5.96 µM, CI (1.842-2.486). With anova statistical test, there were significant differences between K1 group and K2 group (p value=0.004<0.05), K1 group and K3 group (p value=0.000<0.05) as well as K2 group and K3 group (p value=0.029<0.05). In conclusion, Recombinant VEGF 121 increased the level of nitric oxide in mice (Mus musculus) model of preeclampsia significantly.

Abstract

Acne vulgaris (AV) is an inflammation of pilosebaceous unit especially in young adult. The pathophysiology is the elevation of sebum production, keratinization of abnormal pilocebaseous follicles, and inflammation caused by immune response to Propionibacterium acnes. Therapy combination of oral antibiotics (doxycycline) and physical therapy (blue light) in moderate-severe acne is one option to reduce antibiotic resistance. Doxycycline is a commonly antibiotic used. The effects of photosensitive can increase the penetration of blue light by sebaceous glands. There was a total decrease in sebum and clinical improvement of combination therapy of blue light and doxycycline in seven patients. The combination therapy has been shown to improve its therapeutic effect, but more clinical trials are needed to prove the effectiveness of blue light with doxycycline than without blue light.

Abstract

It is expected that probiotics may act synergistically to improve the clinical efficacy of sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT). The aim of this study was to investigate the role of probiotics in enhancing efficacy of sublingual immunotherapy in childhood allergic asthma. This was a randomized single blind clinical trial conducted on 6-17 year-old asthmatic children sensitive to house dust mite allergens. Subjects were allocated to Group A receiving SLIT, Group B receiving probiotics and SLIT, Group C receiving probiotics only. Clinical parameters (FEV1 reversibility, medication score, and symptom score) and immunological parameters (total IgE, eosinophil count, IFN-γ, IL-2, IL-4, IL5, IL10, and TGF-b were evaluated in week 0 until 14. Statistical analysis revealed that the difference of clinical parameters (FEV1 reversibility, medication score, and symptom score) between groups were not significant. The difference of the immunological parameters of total IgE, IFN-γ, IL-2, IL-4, IL5, IL10, and TGF-ß were also not significant. Eosinophil count decreased in subjects who received combination SLIT with probiotics. In conclusion, probiotics enhanced the efficacy of sublingual immunotherapy in childhood allergic asthma by decreasing the eosinophil count.

Abstract

Tuberculosis developed differently in each individual. The role of HIV in the disease development is widely known unlike the role of Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C infection. Therefore, this study is aimed at to describe the role of those co-infections in the TB development. The study employed observational – case control design with two groups, case and control group. Data collection include TB condition, whether latent or manifest, and history of Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C co-infection. The study successfully recruited the total of 32 respondents in each group. At the case group, the number of male and respondent is 19 and 13. Meanwhile, at the control group the number male respondent is 10 and the female respondent is 22. The study found that 20 and 12 respondents were positive Hepatitis B at the case and the control group. Chi-square test resulted significant different between two groups (P=0.0455 and a =0.05) with odd ratio p=0.479. Meanwhile, the study only tested one respondent with positive Hepatitis C at case group and one at control group. Comparison analysis found no significant different between groups (P=1 and a =0.05). This study reveals that TB patients are more likely to have history of Hepatitis B 2.7 times than those at the control group with the same infection but without TB development. Therefore, the possibility of Hepatitis B co-infection has role in the TB manifestation, but not for Hepatitis C co-infection.
