Abstract

Pemphigus Vulgaris(PV) is an autoimmune disease characterized by vesicles and bullae on the skin and mucosa resulting from an autoantibody reaction to desmosomal adhesion molecules desmoglein (Dsg) 1 and 3, which function as strong adhesions between keratinocytes. Pemphigus Vulgarisis more common in the fifth and sixth decades of age. The lesions are fragile blisters on the mucosa and skin. Diagnosing PV requires anamnesis, physical examination,and investigations such as histopathologic examination and direct immunofluorescence. Therapy generally uses steroids. Adjuvant treatmentis given to reduce the side effects of corticosteroids. We reported a male, 59 years old, was treated with blisters that break easily into blisters on the head, face, chest, back, groin and buttocks accompanied by burning and itching. In the scalp, facial, anterior et posteriortrunk, inguinal,and gluteal regions, multiple erythematous maculeswere found with lenticular-plaqueshape; it waspartially confluentwith thick brown crustswhich werechallengingto remove. The histopathologicexamination found the presence of suprabasal bullae with lymphocyte inflammation cells. The patient was diagnosed with PV and treated with corticosteroids with the sparing agent mycophenolate sodium andshowed clinical improvement. The first-linetreatment for pemphigus Vulgarisis systemic corticosteroids. Adjuvant sparing agent therapy is given to reduce the side effects of corticosteroids. Sodium mycophenolate sparing agent was selected because ofitsminimum side effects. In systemic management, the dose of corticosteroid and sparing agent mycophenolate sodium was gradually decreased. The patient experienced initial remission after treatment

Abstract

Bipolar disorder in children and adolescents is a clinical disorder that causes publicmental health problems that need attention. In the last decade, bipolar disorder inchildren and adolescents has become a trendy field, both in the clinical area and inresearch, especially in terms of diagnosis, which is still controversial. The controversythat remains is whether it is possible to diagnose bipolar disorder in prepubertalchildren. Based on the DSM-IV-TR diagnostic criteria, the prevalence of the bipolardisorder in children scarce rare. Epidemiological studies report the lifetimeprevalence of bipolar I and II disorders in late adolescence is about 1 per cent. Variousstudies in a large population have shown a prevalence rate of 0.1% -2%. The onsetof bipolar disorder in children and adolescents is often accompanied by a more severedisease course, compared to bipolar disorder with onset in adulthood. This casereport presents a case of bipolar 1 in children accompanied by comprehensivemanagement.

Abstract

The existence of limitations for children with mental retardation causes aninability to protect themselves so that they often become victims of sexualharassment. Preventive efforts are something that needs to be improved forprevention, considering the worse risks to children. The importance of an effortto prevent sexual abuse of children with mental retardation in connection withthe lack of knowledge about sexual abuse and the inability of children to facethe dangers that threaten themselves. From the results of research conductedin the United States in 1994, nearly 90% of children with mental retardationdisorders had experienced sexual abuse, as many as 49% had experiencedsexual abuse more than ten times. The high incidence of sexual abuseexperienced by children with mental retardation is due to various factors,namely the condition of children's limitations, lack of supervision andprotection of children by parents and the environment. Efforts that can be madeare increasing knowledge about sexual abuse and self-protection skills throughthe Behavioral Skills Training Group Program, where children are trained torecognize threatening objects and situations (sexual abuse). Increasingknowledge about sexual abuse and providing training (self-protection skills) isa significant primary preventive measure to reduce the risk of sexual abuse inchildren with mental retardation.

Abstract

In Indonesia, the cases of cervical cancer are estimated at around 50 per 100.000 people. Itwas estimatedthattherearemore than 1 millionwomenworldwidewho have cervical cancer,and most of them have not been diagnosed yet or do not have access to screening and medicaltreatment. P53 codon 72 polymorphism can affect the risk of cervical cancer through theregulation of proliferationandcellapoptosis.The purpose of this research was to investigate theassociation between p53 codon 72 polymorphism and cases of cervical cancer. This researchwas observational analytic research. The research was done by examining in the laboratory ofMolecular Biology, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Sriwijaya by using a case-control studyapproach.Thesampleoftheresearchconsistedof 70 subjects,and they were divided into twogroups:35 in case group and 35 in the control group. The determination of genotype andallotype was done by using PCR-RFLP technics. The results of the research showed there wasa significant difference between p53 codon 72 polymorphism between the case group andcontrol group. The results of genotypes of p53 codon 72 polymorphism in the case groupwere seven respondents (20.0%) with Pro/Pro genotype, five respondents (14.3%) withArg/Arg genotype, and 23 respondents (65.7%) with Pro/Arg. While in control group, there were28 respondents (80.0%) with Pro/Pro genotype, 0 respondent (0.0%) with Arg/Arg genotype,and 7 respondents (20%) with Pro/Arg. The frequency of the Prolin allele in case group was 37(52.9%), and the Arginin allele was 33 (47.1%), while the frequency of the Prolin allele in thecontrol group was 63 (90%), and the Arginin allele was 7 (10%).

Abstract

Continuous heart failure can lead to complications to other systems, one of which is the hepatic system. Heart failure results in venous congestion in the portal vein so that the portal vein pressure increases, which is called portal hypertension. Portal hypertension causes fluid to pass through the walls of blood vessels and into the tissues. Management of decompensatory heart failure accompanied by comorbi d disease in cardiac cirrhosis includes drugs management that does not aggravate the liver, namely angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and loop diuretic agents. Also, non-pharmacological management such as resting position and a diet sufficient in protein and low salt help improve the patient's general condition. This case report aims to present a de compensated heart failure accompanied by cardiac cirrhosis and anaemia of chronic disease in a child.

Abstract

Psilocybe mushroom, or widely known as the magic mushroom is a variety of mushroom commonly consumed because of hallucinogenic traits it causes toward its consumer. This hallucinogenic effect is caused by Psilocybin, a hallucinogenic substance often found within Psilocybe mushroom. This substance affects mental state of the consumer and has similar effect to those of LSD and Mescaline. Aside from its effect to cause mental disturbance, consumption of this mushroom may cause acute renal injury which leads to a fatal and life-threatening situation. A case of Psilocybe intoxication had been reported in a 22 years old male with a confirmed history of consuming Psilocybe mushroom. Patient first came with a symptom of disorientation and restlessness. Patient also often shook his head off, laughed out, screamed, and continuously making bizarre movements. Psychiatric examination confirmed a sign of auditory hallucination, unstable mood, and stereotypical behavior experienced by the patient. This case report was intended to elaborate the effects of Psilocybe mushroom consumption against physical and mental condition of the consumer, and its management in clinical settings.

Abstract

Since 2013, data showed alcohol consumption in Indonesia increased from 3% to 3.3%, and 0.8% of the population consumes alcohol over the limit (Riskesdas 2018). Consuming alcohol over the limit not only impacts someone physically but also mentally. One of the mental impacts of alcohol consumption is anxiety. If the anxiety is not treated properly, it can lead a patient to consume more alcohol and, moreover, develop an alcohol addiction. To examine alcohol consumption levels and their correlation to anxiety levels. This study is analytical research with a quantitative cross-sectional survey design. Sampling techniques were done by consecutive sampling with the AUDIT questionnaire survey to measure alcohol consumption level and the T-MAS questionnaire survey to measure anxiety level of respondents. The research sample consists of 30 multiple drug user respondents. We got a 0.569 p-value score with Pearson Chi-Square analysis, which can be interpreted to mean that there is no correlation between alcohol consumption and anxiety level. Patients with alcohol abuse mostly come from low-to-average academic groups, a total of 29 people, and not married groups, a total of 18. There is no correlation between alcohol consumption and anxiety levels. The respondent's anxiety level is influenced by his or her academic grade and marital status.
