Helicobacter pylori is a bacteria that commonly cause chronic gastritis. Identification of its infection is essential for eradication treatment. Detection of H.pylori bacteria in gastric biopsy specimen by histology method is a diagnostic tool that widely accepted because it is superior to serology examination. Although the bacteria can be seen in routinely Hematoxylin-Eosin staining, Modified Giemsa and Whartin Starry stain was commonly used to see the bacteria more clearly. Whartin Starry stain gives more contrast to the bacteria but modified Giemsa stain is preferable at many centres because it is a cheaper and simpler method. This study want to find out whether there is difference result in detection of H.pylori using these two stains. Material and methods. Paraffin blocks from gastric biopsy patients with chronic gastritis were retrieved from Anatomic Pathology Laboratory Dr.Soetomo Hospital Surabaya in the year 2017. Thirty paraffin blocks were taken randomly and were made into microscopic slides for staining with Warthin-starry and modified Giemsa stain concomitantly. Results. Specimen with Whartin starry stain show 19 out of 30 were positive for H.pylori while modified-Giemsa stain found 16 out of 30 specimen were positive for H.pylori. Whartin Starry stain use silver reagent to coat the bacteria so it become more clearly visible. Conclusion. Detection of H.pylori Warthin-starry stain give more chance to obtain positive result because it use silver technique that coat the bacteria making it is more clearly visible in microscopic examination.

Publisher : Institute of Topical Disease Universitas Airlangga

North Semarang sub-district is located on the coast of the Java Sea. The coastal area is characterized by high salt content on both the ground and the water compare to other areas. The high salt content environment should have limited the breeding of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) vectors; yet, quite high incidents of DHF cases are reported taken place in North Semarang coastal area. The aim of this study was to describe the epidemiology of DHF incidence, characteristic of cases, and bionomics vector in the coastal area of North Semarang sub-district. This study was applied descriptive observational design to analyze samples consisting of 62 dengue cases and 184 houses. The research variables consisted of coordinate of DHF cases, water salinity, House Index (HI), Container Index (CI), and Aedes species. Data were processed using SPSS in a bivariate manner; while, mapping was analyzed spatially using ArcGIS 10.3. A total of 184 houses were surveyed and 55 cases of DHF were identified. Most cases occurred in 6 -16 year age group (47.3%), water salinity ranged from 2-3%, indicating that the water in the coastal area tended to be brackish water. The results of the Pearson Correlation test showed that there was no relationship between HI and Incidence Rate (IR) of DHF in North Semarang District. Aedes aegypti was identified in a positive container, otherwise Aedes albopictus was not found. DHF cases mostly occurred in school age groups, and were distributed in all villages near or far from the beach. DHF vector could breed in areas with little brackish water, so that dengue transmission might occur in this area.

Publisher : Institute of Topical Disease Universitas Airlangga

Soil-Transmitted Helminth (STH) has infected more than one billion people worldwide. Waste collectors are at risk for STH infection because their work mostly in contact with soil and waste. Eosinophilia is a sign of human immune response to STH infection in addition to increased IgE and cytokine production. This cross sectional study aims to examine the association between STH infection and eosinophil levels among waste collectors in Banda Aceh. The study sample were 60 waste collectors working for the Sanitation department of Banda Aceh. Examination of stool samples using Kato-Katz technique revealed the prevalence of STH infection among waste collectors was 23.3% (14/60), consisting of T.trichiura infection (21.7%) and mixed infection (1.6%). There were no single infections of A. lumbricoides nor the hookworm infection was found. Blood tests to count eosinophil showed the prevalence of eosinophilia at 21.7%. There was no significant correlation between the intensity of STH infection and eosinophil levels (p value = 1.00). This study does not recommend the use of eosinophilia to indicate STH infection.

Publisher : Institute of Topical Disease Universitas Airlangga

Soil Transmitted Helminths (STH) infections is one of health issues in Indonesia that has environment and social basis. It is classified as neglected disease. The Indonesian government already has eradication program, but it is not supported by evaluation and monitoring program. The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence and relation of each risk factors related to STH infections in elementary school in Ngis village, Karangasem regency, Bali. The study was done by analytical description using cross sectional study. Samples were selected from population based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Primary data about suspected risk factors were collected using questionnaire. Diagnosis was established using Kato-Katz modification method. Data was analyzed using chi-square with confidence interval 95% or p value â‰¤0.05 categorized as significant. 138 students enrolled in this study, the median age is 9 (6-13) years. The prevalence of STH infections is 10.1% with 78.6% is single infection of Trichuris trichiura and 21.4% mixed infections. The proportion of STH infections in males is higher than female but it is statistically insignificant. STH infections have significant relationship with some risk factors such as not washing hand after defecation, not washing hand after playing with soil, barefoot, not cutting nails and consuming anti-helminthic routinely. The highest risk factor of STH infections in Ngis village is not having available and proper latrine. (OR=33.9; 95%CI=5.749-199.769). The prevalence of STH infection is quite high with mild to moderate intensity and risk factors namely low hygiene and limited latrines. The implementation of monitoring and evaluation can be an effort to control risk factors and stop the STH transmission chain.

Escherichia coli (E. coli) can be isolated from the environment both inside and outside the hospes body. There were 89 serotypes in which showed 21% resistance to various antibiotics, such as enterotoxigenic E.coli. Alternative efforts are needed to overcome this, one of them through the use of medicinal plants, such as meniran (Phyllanthus niruri Linn). Meniran plant is an immunomodulator that serves to repair the immune system of the body. The aim of research is the research was done through several stages: isolation and identification of enterotoxigenic E. coli from several broiler farms in East Java using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method, E. coli resistance test against some antibiotics, making meniran extract and activation test against enterotoxigenic E. coli n The study was divided into five treatments: T0+ (group of chickens were infected by enterotoxigenic E. coli T0- (control group, not infected), T1 (infected by enteroxigenic E. coli + 20% meniran extract), T2 (infected by enterotoxigenic E. coli + 25% extract meniran), T3 (infected by enterotoxigenic E. coli + 30% extract meniran). Data were analyzed by ANOVA (Analysis of Variance). The results show that all of E. coli DNA isolates which tested by the PCR method show positive reactions at 600 bp. The next stage, the enterotoxigenic E. coli are resistant to some antibiotics, such as amoxicillin, ampicillin, erythromycin, cephalosporins, tetracycline, cloxacillin and gentamicin. Furthermore, the 30% Phyllanthus niruri Linn extract is effective as an antibacterial for antibiotic resistance enterotoxigenic E. coli. next necessary to write that: The 30% meniran extract is potential for kill of enterotoxigenic E. coli

Vector-borne mosquito diseases are still as a public health problem in the world, including in Indonesia. Many of mosquitoes species are significantly as vectors of patogen, such as virus, bacteria, protozoan, and helminths due to human health. Samborejo Village is one of filariasis endemic areas and it is still in a high mf-rate. Each of mosquito species has a differential of distribution, bioactivities pattern, and type of habitat of their breeding sites with others. The objective of this study was to determine the diversity, dominancy, and periodicity pattern of mosquitoes during night time in Samborejo Village Tirto Distric Pekalongan Regency. Mosquitoes collections were done by landing method, from 6 pm - 6 am of in an hour period of collection, for biting and resting activities and also for indoor and outdoor collection respectively. Mosquitoes were then identified and the diversity was analized by Shannon-Wienner Index. The total number of each species was served in percent. Totally there were 339 collected mosquitoes, consisting of 165 (48.67%) females and 174 (51.33%) males. Of all, there were 4 species identified which were Culex quinquefasciatus (92.1%), Culex tritaeniorhynchus (0.6%), Culex vishnui (1.8%), and Aedes aegypti (5.5%). Samborejo Village showed in low diversity with the index of 0.338, and Cx. quinquefasciatus to be the dominant species in this area. Culex quinquefasciatus also became the frequent species in each period of collection for indoor and outdoor, and it showed the indoor active biting at 9 pm, 01 am, and 03 am; furthermore, the outdoor active biting was at midnight (00) and at 03 am. However, Aedes mosquitoe was showed active biting in earlier, it was at 6 pm, 7 pm, and at 02 am.

Rubella infections in pregnant women, especially during the first trimester, often lead to manifest as congenital rubella syndrome (CRS). This syndrome consists of several inherited disorders such as deafness, cataracts, and cardiac abnormalities. Deafness is the most common manifestation of CRS, 70-90% of all cases with deafness type are sensory neural deafness. The mechanism of hearing loss due to rubella virus is caused by hypoxia resulting from endothelial vascular damage in cochlea, followed by cell death in the organ of Corti and stria vascularis.Cochlea's stria damage makes alterations in the composition of endolymph. This study aimed to confirm rubella infection using PCR and serological tests in patients with CRS who were clinically deaf. A suspected CRS reported was a 2-month-old patient with an unclear response to surround sound. The patient had been already diagnosed with congenital cataracts before. Prenatal, perinatal and postnatal history was evaluated. Hearing screening was done by OAE (Biological), and AABR (Beraphone). Anti-rubella IgM and IgG was obtained from blood serum. PCR was carried out from a throat swab and the eye-lens specimen. OAE and AABR results ‘refer' to both sides of the ear indicated a sensorineural hearing loss. The serological examination of IgM was positive with an index of 15.00 and IgG rubella positive with a titer> 500 IU / ml. Positive results from the rubella virus were identified from the throat swab and lens specimens using the PCR method. Detection of rubella virus in CRS sufferers with clinical deafness of both ears gives positive results using PCR and serology methods. In the future PCR can be potential for prenatal diagnosis of rubella virus aimed at the provision of early prevention.

Early diagnosis of dengue infection is important because late diagnostic can be fatal to the patient, remembered the journey of the disease is very rapid. Currently there has been developed an examination of a non structural 1 dengue antigen (NS1) that can detect dengue viral infections earlier, even on the first day of fever. However, not all health care centers have adequate laboratory facilities for NS1 checks.Clinical symptoms and signs as well as a routine blood test are indicators that become the basis of diagnosis in health care facilities with limited facilities. This study aims to determine the relationship of NS1 examination result to clinical symptoms and signs as well as the result of routine blood tests in patients suspected dengue infection. This research uses observational analytic method with cross sectional approach. The research was conducted in clinic laboratory and inpatient clinic room of Vita Medika Kepung Kediri from November 2017 to February 2018.The number of research samples of 30 people was determined by the consecutive sampling technique. NS1 examination was done by using rapid immunochromatography test method with mono kits. Routine blood examination was done by using Micros 60. Chi square test on relationship between clinical sign and symptoms examination of dengue with the results of NS1 examination obtained p= 0,310 (p > 0,005), while the results of chi square test on the relationship of routine blood examination results haemoglobine levels, amount of leucocyte, platelet count and hematocite of NS1 examination result obtained p value in a row p = 0,235 (p > 0,05) , p = 0,013(p < 0,05) , p = 0,028(p < 0,05) dan p = 0,132 (p > 0,05). There was a significant correlation between leucocyte count and platelet count to NS1 antigen exanimation result , but there was no correlation between clinical signs and symptoms of dengue patients, haemoglobine level and haematocryt value on NS1 antigen examination result.

Genital tract infection (GTI) remains a significant health concern. It is estimated that in 2016, there were 370 million people who suffer from chlamydia, gonorrhea, and trichomoniasis; and 708 million others suffer from genital herpes and condyloma acuminatum. It has been reported that in pregnant women, GTI is associated with preterm delivery. The mechanisms of GTI-associated preterm delivery need to be further understood to prevent neonatal mortality and morbidity that could be the risk factor for neonates' growth and development disorders. This article aims to describe various types of GTI and the associated pathogenesis causing preterm birth. A literature search was conducted to retrieve recent articles published in English from online databases including Pubmed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. This literature study found that GTI evokes inflammatory responses that trigger several mechanisms leading to preterm delivery. The inflammatory responses in GTI include the production of proinflammatory cytokines and robust activation of neutrophils. The key mechanisms that stimulate preterm delivery in GTI include the events of early uterine contraction, preterm premature rupture of membranes, and induction of cervical ripening; which are under normal circumstances in a full-term pregnancy, those mechanisms are regulated by progesterone and prostaglandin levels along with suppression of the inflammatory responses. In conclusion, this paper has described the underlying mechanisms of preterm delivery in pregnant women with ISG. However, such mechanisms remain unclear in candida and gonococcal infection; thus, prompting the need for further studies.

The diagnosis of childhood tuberculosis remains a challenge worldwide. The GeneXpert MTB/RIF test, a rapid Mycobacteria tuberculosis diagnostic tool, was recommended for use in children. No pediatric studies of GeneXpert MTB/RIF assessing pulmonary tuberculosis within a hospital setting has been done in Indonesia. We evaluated the performance of the GeneXpert MTB/RIF test compared with sputum culture on Lowenstein-Jensen (LJ) for the diagnosis of childhood pulmonary tuberculosis. This study was conducted in pediatric respirology inpatient and outpatient Dr. Soetomo Hospital, a tertiary care facility in Surabaya between June and August 2015 with a cross-sectional design. We consecutively enrolled 27 children aged 3 months to 14 years who had history of close contact with adult tuberculosis patients and showed symptoms of pulmonary tuberculosis. Sputum collection was performed by induced sputum and three examination methods were performed (microscopic, GeneXpert MTB/RIF and sputum culture) simultaneously followed by a drug sensitivity test for specimens detected with MTB growth. The GeneXpert MTB/RIF test had a sensitivity of 100% (95% CI 100-100) and a specificity of 95% (95% CI 85-100). The positive predictive value for diagnosing pulmonary TB was 89% (95% CI 68-100), the negative predictive value was 100% (95% CI 100-100) and positive likelihood ratio was 20 (95% CI 2.82-128). The GeneXpert MTB/RIF test on one sputum sample rapidly and correctly identified all children with culture-confirmed pulmonary tuberculosis with high specificity. Similar results were obtained between GeneXpert MTB/RIF and sputum culture based on age groups and clinical manifestations. Rifampicin resistance were both detected in GeneXpert MTB/RIF and MTB sensitivity test
