Abstract

Introduction: Steven Johnson Syndrome (SJS) is life-threatening skin reaction, it is a mucocutaneous disorder induced by immune complex-mediated hypersensitivity reaction. Most frequent offending agents are antibiotic, antiretroviral and aromatic anticonvulsants. Problems arise when these drugs are required for long-term use and necessary for several health conditions. These case series aim to describe SJS and provide replacement therapy especially inpatient with epilepsy.Case report: A 37 years old female was consulted from neurology department with chief complaints an erythematous rash on her chest, back upper and lower extremities accompanied with fever, the patient also complaint erosions on her lips. She had history of seizure and was prescribe Carbamazepine. Carbamazepine was replaced and patient treated with dexamethasone intravenously. After 1 week of admitted there is an improvement.Conclusion: Steven Johnson Syndrome (SJS) is a life-threatening disease, the replacement of the suspected drugs and appropriate therapy can improve the prognosis of patient.

Abstract

Background: Dopamine is responsible for inflammatory response and plays a role in the skin immune system by modulating T-cells, dendritic cells, and keratinocytes which increases skin inflammatory response in atopic dermatitis (AD). Elevation of dopamine level will affect IL-6, IL-8, IL-23, Th-17, and TNF-α, which promotes keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation, infiltration of inflammatory cells, angiogenesis, vasodilation, and skin barrier disruption on AD.Objective: This study aimed to establish whether the increase of plasma dopamine level contributes to a risk factor for AD occurrence.Methods: This is a matched-pair case-control observational analytical study which involves patients with AD and without AD as control. Samples were taken using a consecutive sampling method which fulfilled inclusion and exclusion criteria, matched for gender and age. Plasma dopamine level was measured from venous blood and processed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. The collected data were then analysed using SPSS version 20.0 with Pearson chi-square test for the odds ratio.Results: A total of 30 samples with AD (case group) and 30 samples without AD (control group) involved in this study. This study proves that plasma dopamine levels in the case group were significantly higher than the control group (p<0.05). Odds ratio for plasma dopamine was 42.2 (95%CI: 9.5-187.2, p < 0.001).Conclusion: This study concludes that high plasma dopamine level is a risk factor for AD.

Abstract

Background: In this recent time, ROS and oxidative stress have been said to play an important role in the pathogenesis of inflamed acne lesions. One example of ROS produced by neutrophil through phagocytosis is H2O2. Nevertheless, there is an enzymatic antioxidant which catalyses H2O2 called catalase. Imbalance of free radicals and antioxidants due to excessive ROS formation promotes the state of oxidative stress and inflammation of the acne lesion.Objective: This study aimed to determine plasma H2O2 and catalase level as a risk factor for acne.Methods: This matched-pair case-control observational analytic study involving 38 patients with acne and 38 patients without acne. Sampling was done using consecutive sampling which fulfils the inclusion and exclusion criteria and followed by matching with age and gender. H2O2 and catalase level measured on both groups. The analysis was done using SPSS.Results: H2O2 mean level in the case and control group, respectively 0.68 ± 0.03 and 0.42 ± 0.04 µmol/ml. High H2O2 level was determined from cut-off point >0.62 µmol/ml. High H2O2 was a statistically significant risk factor for acne vulgaris (p<0.001; 95% CI: 4.59-40.62; OR: 13.67). The mean level of catalase in the case and control group respectively 0.48 ± 0.06 and 0.74 ± 0.07 U/ml. Low catalase level was determined from the cut-off point <0.58 U/ml. Catalase was significant risk factor for acne vulgaris (p<0.001; 95% CI: 5.18-77.21; OR: 20.00).Conclusion: High levels of H2O2 plasma and low levels of catalase plasma is a risk factor of acne vulgaris.

Abstract

Background: There are several theories that suggest melanocyte death in vitiligo, one example is oxidative stress theory. Oxidative stress primarily manifested by lipid peroxidation ultimately produce malondialdehyde. Malondialdehyde is a stable marker to assess an oxidative stress event. The correlation between serum malondialdehyde levels and vitiligo severity and activity remained controversial in previous studies.Objective: This study aimed to verify whether or not the serum MDA levels are positively correlated with vitiligo severity and activity.Methods: This study was an analytical cross-sectional study. which involved 64 subjects with vitiligo and 20 subjects without vitiligo. Serum MDA levels were measured to mark an oxidative stress event, whereas the severity and activity of vitiligo were clinically assessed with vitiligo area severity index (VASI) and vitiligo disease activity (VIDA) scoring system.Results: Total 64 subjects with vitiligo and 20 subjects without vitiligo participated in this study. Serum MDA mean levels of vitiligo subjects were significantly higher compared to subjects without vitiligo (p<0.05). Serum MDA levels had a strong positive correlation with VASI score (r=0.761; p<0.01). The strong positive correlation found between serum MDA levels with vitiligo activity assessed by VASI score in vitiligo subjects (r=0.609; p<0.01), and high serum MDA levels increased the risk for developing vitiligo (PR=7.62; 95% CI: 2.49-23.30; p<0.01). Serum MDA levels influenced vitiligo as much as 10.1%, meanwhile the remaining 89.9% were influenced by other variables apart from high serum MDA levels out of this study (R2=0.101; p<0.05).Conclusion: Serum MDA levels were positively correlated with vitiligo severity and activity, and high serum MDA levels increased the risk of developing vitiligo.

Abstract

Background: Psoriasis vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that its aetiology is still not completely known. A chronic inflammation in psoriasis can cause organ dysfunctions. Elevation of proinflammatory cytokines gives rise to insulin resistance by inhibiting insulin and glucose transport mechanism signals. Insulin resistance is the underlying pathogenesis of metabolic syndrome.Objective: This study aimed to undestand any correlation in the severity of psoriasis vulgaris with HOMA-IR.Methods: A cross sectional research involving 35 subjects with psoriasis vulgaris and 15 subjects without who met the selection criteria. HOMA-IR is a formula used to measure insulin resistance which calculates the fasting insulin value in μU/ml x fasting glucose in mg/DL/405 taken from the blood veins of subjects. PASI score was used to determine psoriasis vulgaris severity.Results: This study shows that the HOMA-IR median value was higher in psoriasis subject than the subjects without psoriasis (p<0.05). The correlaton analysis shows a moderate positive correlation between psoriasis vulgaris severity and HOMA-IR (r= 0.427; p<0.05). The prevalence ratio was 8.57, which means psoriasis vulgaris subjects were 8.57 times more likely to have HOMA-IR compared to those without psoriasis vulgaris (p<0.05; 95%CI: 1.26-58.1).Conclusion: This study concludes that there is a moderate positive correlation between severity of psoriasis vulgaris and HOMA-IR values.

Abstract

Background: Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is an autoimmune disease characterized by mucocutaneous blistering and erosion. This is rare, but greatly affects the patient’s life quality and often cause complication of disease and therapy. Hyperglycemia is a complication due to steroid use called glucocorticoid-induced hyperglycemia (GIH). This case report describes hyperglycemia in PV treatment, which later can be a consideration of PV management.Case: A 44-year-old male patient complained of painful lesions on almost the whole body with a form of bullae, erosion, crusting, brittle, the Nikolsky sign (+), and Asboe-Hansen sign (+). The patient was diagnosed with PV. After he had supportive therapy and high-doses of methylprednisolone, his blood sugar is increased. Patients diagnosed by hyperglycemia state due to steroid use, then given insulin as therapy. The patient diagnosed with PV based on history taking and physical examination, but the histopathologic examination wasn’t done due to lack of modality at the hospital. The steroid was given as an immunosuppressive. Be the main therapy for PV, steroids lead hyperglycemia due to disruption of glucose metabolism, thereby increasing insulin resistance in tissues. The diagnosis of hyperglycemia due to steroid use is made in a patient with a normal sugar level before PV therapy. It occurred within the first 1-2 days of therapy. In these patients, diagnosis confirmed by increasing pre-prandial, 2 h post-prandial, and any-time glucose level, after two days methylprednisolone administration. Collaboration with internal medicine colleagues is needed.Conclusion: PV treatment with steroids can induce hyperglycemia, which is dangerous. The understanding mechanism is needed to make early detection and provide therapy properly.

Abstract

Tuberculosis is one of the most significant diseases which causes death worldwide. TB infection is assumed to infect the lungs only from a general perspective. In fact, TB infection also causes lesions on the skin. Scrofuloderma, as one of the most common types of cutaneous tuberculosis, often misdiagnosed and managed improperly due to its similarity with abscess. In addition, there were still no national and international guidelines for scrofuloderma. This review to give insights and review about an update in the basic principle of scrofuloderma and management.

Abstract

Background: Acne vulgaris is a chronic inflammation of the pilosebaceous gland that may result in both non-inflammatory and inflammatory lesions. Post-acne hyperpigmentation (PAH) is caused by a hypermelanotic reaction to skin inflammation. It can occur secondary to the inflammation process and depending on the severity, may persist for a prolonged period.Objective To determine the effectiveness of galactomyces ferment filtrate (GFF), dexpanthenol, and Centella asiatica combination serum in the treatment of PAHMethods: This was a placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial. There are 68 subjects  that were divided into two groups: the experimental group received combination serum while the control group received placebo for 8 weeks. Three drops of serum were applied to the area with PAH twice daily in the morning and at night. The melanin, erythema, roughness, and L*, a*, and b* scores were assessed objectively using mexameter, chromameter and skin analyzer for every two weeks. Pearson’s correlation test and independent T-test were used to assess the trend of the parameters and compare the results of both groups.Results: The results of statistical calculations using Pearson correlation test showed the treatment group showed a significant decreasing trend of the melanin and spots score. Both groups showed significant decreasing trend in erythema, L* score and roughness. However, no significant difference was found between both groups in all parameters.Conclusion: The combination serum may decrease the melanin and spot scores suggesting that it affects the melanocyte activity. It has shown a good efficacy in treating PAH.

Abstract

Scabies is a parasitic disease of the skin that is difficult to enforce if the clinical symptoms are not typical. The diagnosis relies on clinical symptoms to be less efficient and only has a sensitivity of less than 50% because it is difficult to distinguish active infestations, residual skin reactions, or reinfestations. Misdiagnosis results in wrong treatment and causes the patient to not recover and continues to be a source of infection for the environment. The exact diagnosis of scabies is determined by finding mites or eggs on laboratory tests, but mites are difficult to find because only a few mites infest sufferers. For this reason, various studies in the world have tried to develop diagnostic methods in the enforcement of scabies. This article will describe the trend of establishing a diagnosis of scabies, as well as the advantages and disadvantages in its application.

Abstract

Buschke Lowenstein tumor (BLT)/giant condyloma acuminatum is a rare variant of a sexually transmitted infection caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) type 6 and 11. HPV has its viral factors that exist to avoid immune surveillance and control through 1) infecting only the basal layer of the epithelium, 2) downregulation of host immunity, 3) suppression of proinflammatory proteins essential for viral clearance. The incidence of BLT/GCA is estimated to be 0.1% in the general population, with males having 2.7 times increased risk than females. A BLT/GCA is characterized by verrucous tumor or palpable cauliflower-likemass, exophytic growth, flesh-colored, and uneven surface. The definitive diagnosis of BLT/GCA is typical morphology along with histopathological examination, and/or viral serotyping. Treatment of BLT/GCA requires a multidisciplinary approach, determined based on age, the extent of the lesion, organ involvement, and organ location.
