Background: Intertriginous candidiasis is a type of candidiasis which the lesion lies in the folds of the armpit, groin, intergluteal, folding of the breast, between the fingers or the toes, glans penis, and the umbilicus. One of the risk factors for intertriginous candidiasis is diabetes mellitus (DM). DM is a typical clinical syndrome characterized by the presence of hyperglycemia which is caused by deficiency or the decrease of insulin effectivity. Fungal infection of the skin with Candida species becomes easier in patients with immunocompromised conditions such as DM patients.Objective: To identify the Candida species in DM patient's skin.Method: This research is an observational descriptive study with cross sectional design. This research identifies Candida species from 30 DM patients at The Public Health Center Sentosa BaruMedan who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria by skin scraping with KOH 10% and slide culture.RESULTS: The location of the rash was found in the crotch folds 63.3% and in the intergluteal 36.7%. All samples (100%) showed positive fungus structure with KOH 10% examination. On theexamination of slide culture with Saboraoud Dextrose Agar media and identification of slide colony with Corn Meal Agar medium as many as 60% Candida spesies was found with overallspecies are Candida albicans.Conclusions: The identification of Candida Species on the skin of DM patients showed as many as 60% Candida albicans was found

The skin problem often found on adolescents is acne vulgaris. The pathogenesis of acne vulgaris is multifactorial, from increased production of sebum, hyperproliferation of pilosebaceous follicles, colonization of Cutibacterium acnes, to inflammation process. The elevated sebum production which is often linked to oily skin type could result in acne vulgaris in adolescents. According to Baumann Skin Type, one of the parameters in categorizing skin type is having either oily or dry skin. Acne vulgaris is also found on dry skin. This research aims to find the association between skin types and acne vulgaris. It is an analitic research with cross-sectional method. The data were acquired from 93 students of SMA Santo Thomas 1 Medan who fulfilled the inclusion criteria with stratified random sampling method. The collection of data were primarily carried out with dermatology examination and Baumann Skin Type questionnaire to determine the skin types. Then, they were analyzed with Chi-square test to see the relationship between skin types and acne vulgaris. The obtained results show that 73 (78,5%) out of 93 students suffered from acne vulgaris with predominance being female (39,8%) than male (38,7%), and those in 15-year age group (38,7%). The most commonly observed skin type on samples is oily skin (79,6%). The bivariate analysis with acquired p-value of 0,002 (p<0,05) led to a conclusion that there is a significant association between skin types and acne vulgaris.

Infants have skin that is easy to get irritated and infected by microorganisms. The use of diapers in infants often causes diaper dermatitis and disturbs the comfort. The diaper dermatitis incidence is quite high in infants aged 0-24 months. This study purposes to determine the factors that influence the infant diaper dermatitis and assess the relationship between these factors and the diaper dermatitis. The study design is an analytical observational with a cross sectional study design. Data retrieval using interview method on respondents use a structured questionnaire to obtain risk factors which are associated with the diaper dermatitis incidence. Bivariate analysis was used to examine the relationship between the diaper dermatitis incidence and contributing factors. The study result is 27 infants (36%) of 75 infants had diaper dermatitis. It was obtained p value ≤ 0.05 for solid food (fishes, p = 0,018) and diarrhea (p = 0,021). The value of p > 0.05 for the variables of age, sex, maternal education level, neighborhood, solid foods (cereals, eggs and fruits), frequency of diaper changes, frequency of bathing, and the use of protective skin cream. The conclusion is there is a correlation between diaper dermatitis and the solid food (fishes) and diarrhea.

Background: Abnormalities of pigmentation is a cosmetic problem which affects the overall appearance of an individual. Pigmentation disorder are caused by the increase (hypermelanosis) or the decrease (hypomelanosis) amount of melanin. Objective: To determine the pattern of pigmentation disorder in Cosmetic Dermatology Clinic H. Adam Malik General Hospital Medan in 2012-2015. Methods: A retrospective study using subject's medical records from the Cosmetic Dermatology Clinic H. Adam Malik General Hospital Medan in 2012 - 2015, presented descriptively.

Hypermelanosis were found respectively in 24.76%, 16.20%, 12.79%, 5.63%. Whereas hypomelanosis were found 18.10%, 9.21%, 8.53%, 8.45%. During 2012 - 2015 melasma was the most common disorder found among hypermelanosis group, followed by post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Meanwhile vitiligo was the only diagnosis in hypomelanosis group. Each year most of the pigmentation disorder patients came from the age group 38-48 years old except in 2015. Women were more affected than men. Conclusion: In 2012-2014, the largest proportion of pigmentation disorder were hypermelanosis, mostly melasma.

Background: Acne vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory disease of the pilosebaceous follicle with polymorphic clinical manifestation typically found on facial, neck and/or back area. The pathogenesis is complex and multifactorial. Management of acne vulgaris is determined based on its severity. Adjuvant therapies, such as intense pulsed light (IPL), have been described in accelerating the healing process during treatment. Case Illustration: We report two cases regarding the usage of IPL as adjuvant therapy in acne vulgaris. Both patients were diagnosed with moderate acne vulgaris. The first patient was given topical adapalene 0.1% gel every night and sunscreen in the morning, and the other patient was given clindamycin gel applied twice a day, benzoyl peroxide 2.5% cream applied once a day at night, and sunscreen in the morning. Both patients were treated using IPL as their adjuvant therapy every three weeks, with a total of 2 IPL sessions in 2 months. Evaluation using clinical and ultraviolet-induced red fluorescence (UVRF) examination showed gradual improvement. Discussion: IPL as an adjuvant therapy of acne vulgaris has been thought to interfere with the function of the sebaceous glands by its direct phototoxic effects and thermal damage. It also has bactericidal effects on C. acnes through the formation of free radicals. The combination of topical treatment and IPL yielded clinical improvements in both patients.Conclusion: IPL may be beneficial as adjuvant therapy in acne vulgaris in this case series.

Background: Acne vulgaris (AV) is a multifactorial disorder characterized by the formation of open and closed comedones, papules, pustules, nodules, and cysts. Oxidative stress plays a role in the pathogenesis of AV. Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), especially lipid peroxides (LPO), plays a role in mediating acne inflammation. Malondialdehyde (MDA) is one of the byproducts of LPO commonly used as a biomarker of cell damage.Methods: This cross-sectional analytic study consisted of sixty patients with AV. The samples were taken from the blood plasma of AV subjects. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) examination was performed. The normality of data distribution was determined using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and the differences of plasma MDA levels based on the severity of AV were determined using the Kruskal-Wallis test. P valueResults: Acne vulgaris was predominantly found in women (70%), age group of 18 – 25 years old (73,33%), and patients with family history of AV (61,67%). Higher plasma MDA levels were found in women [5,5 (2,53 – 77,6) nmol/mL], age group of 26 – 35 years [5,66 (2,73 – 25) nmol/mL], and subjects with family history of AV [5,49 (2,53 – 77,6) nmol/mL]. Based on the severity of AV, the severe AV group had highest plasma MDA [13,85 (2,69 – 77,6) nmol/mL], followed by moderate AV group [4,46 (2,53-14,3) nmol/mL] and mild AV [3,78 (2,47-6,88) nmol/mL]. There were differences in plasma MDA level based on the severity of AV (p<0,001).Conclusion: There were differences in plasma MDA levels based on the severity of AV.
