Abstract

Background: Although very rare, there has been an increasing incidence of primary intraocular lymphoma (PIOL) in recent years. In addition, PIOL is often missed in diagnosis and is often treated without a standard, resulting in frequent recurrence and involvement of the central nervous system. Investigations have an important role in establishing the diagnosis of this case.Contents: The latest diagnostic supporting tests applied to PIOL are optical coherence tomography, fundus fluorescence angiography, indocyanine green angiography, fundal autofluorescence, ocular ultrasonography, vitrectomy sampling, and head MRI. Histopathological examination with Giemsa stain or hematoxylin-eosin is the gold standard in this case. Molecular studies and genetics have also recently played an important role in supporting PIOL diagnosis.Conclusion: PIOL has similarities with other vitreoretinal and uveal tract diseases, so it is not easy to diagnose. High clinical suspicion needs to be followed up with the latest investigations to establish PIOL diagnosis.

Abstract

Background: For health workers, the faster flow of globalization develops many challenges. Indonesia's health workers also face internal challenges. In contrast, in the 5.0 society era, the challenges are in the form of an emphasis on the quality of character, morality, and competence of the health workers.Content: A medical student should be formed in the Community and Family Health Care with Inter-Professional Education (CFHC-IPE) education program, which develops competencies related to ethics, communication, teamwork, and roles and responsibilities in a team from the first day at college. The new challenge for medical education is applying the three new literacies, namely data, technology, and humanity, to produce Indonesian doctors who can adapt and meet national and global needs. Every graduate must meet the competency standards of doctors, which not only provide services to the community through professional practice but can also maintain the noble values of the medical profession.Conclusion: Medical students in the 5.0 era have challenges that take work, particularly in developing new skills in data literacy, technology, and humanity, while still fulfilling their primary competencies.

Abstract

Introduction: The menstrual cycle is a regularly coordinated hormonal process in a woman's body which can be an indicator to describe a woman's reproductive health. Riskesdas (2018) shows that 11.7% of Indonesian youth experience menstrual cycle disorders. Body Mass Index (BMI) can be a factor that can interfere with the menstrual cycle, so the purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between Body Mass Index (BMI) and the menstrual cycle in female students at SMK Negeri 2 Gorontalo.Method: This study used a cross-sectional design. The sample was selected using a probability sampling technique utilizing simple random sampling with a total sample of 173 people, the instruments used were scales and meters for body mass index data and menstrual cycle questionnaires. The study was conducted in November 2022. The relationship between BMI and the menstrual cycle was tested using the Spearman correlation test.Results: Out of 173 respondents whose data were analyzed, 128 respondents (74%) had a normal BMI, 19 respondents (11%) were underweight, and 26 respondents (15%) were overweight. Among the total respondents, 117 (67.6%) had a normal menstrual cycle, while 56 (32.4%) had an abnormal cycle. There were 14 respondents (10.9%) with normal BMI, 18 respondents (94.7%) with underweight BMI, and 24 respondents (92.3%) with overweight BMI who had an abnormal menstrual cycle. There was a significant correlation between BMI and menstrual cycle among female students of SMK Negeri Gorontalo, with a p-value of 0.019.Conclusion: significant association exists between BMI and menstrual cycle among SMK Negeri 2 Gorontalo female students. This study can serve as a recommendation for the school to provide information regarding reproductive health, particularly menstrual cycles.

Abstract

Immunotherapy as a specific moleculer targeted therapy could modulate immune respons through  cytotoxic CD8+ pathway so that generate anti-tumor activity on breast cancer. HER2/Neu is the one of  tumor associated antigen  which extensively studied to reduce cancer progression. CTLA-4 has important role in immune checkpoint blockade that it is used for studying breast cancer either in early or advanced level. In this review, we discussed principle of immunotherapy in tumor microenvironment and some kinds of active immunotherapies, which included cancer vaccination and immune checkpoint blockade. Majority of those immunotherapies are ongoing clinical trial.  Hence, this becomes a promising new field in breast cancer therapies in a future and will ultimately change the current status of breast cancer therapies.

Abstract

Introduction: Colorectal cancer is the fifth most common malignant neoplasm worldwide. Commonly found in adults, the adolescent population is scarce. Colorectal cancer diagnosed and treated late is potentially associated with the worst prognosis.Case: A 17-year-old boy was admitted to the hospital due to a distended abdomen and abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting that he had been experiencing seven days prior. The patient neither had a bowel movement nor flatus for the day. Abdominal ultrasound showed a regional intraluminal mass on the right upper quadrant with a suspicion of an appendical mass with a differential diagnosis of intussusception, colon tumor, and obstructive ileus. Acute abdominal series showed small bowel obstruction. When the surgery was performed, there was a tumor in the hepatic flexure of the colon. Histopathological examination revealed colon adenocarcinoma.Conclusion: The incidence of colorectal cancer in adolescents has increased. Right extended hemicolectomy was performed in this case, but the patient refused the chemotherapy. The patient was readmitted to the hospital five months later, was only given palliative therapy in the Intensive Care Unit, and died two weeks later. We believe that had the chemotherapy been performed, the patient might have had a better prognosis. This case report will help increase awareness among doctors and surgeons in including colorectal carcinoma as a differential diagnosis in adolescents so that it can shorten the delay in diagnosis, which in turn will endanger the patient's prognosis.Keywords: Colorectal cancer; Adenocarcinoma; Adolescents

Abstract

Background: The increasing number of Indonesian pilgrims yearly makes Indonesia the most significant country that sends pilgrims worldwide. But unfortunately, this is not accompanied by optimal health quality. One of the reasons is that most of these pilgrims are elderly and sometimes have suffered from degenerative diseases since they were in Indonesia.Contents: Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of death in developed and developing countries. The pathophysiology of coronary heart disease is closely related to lifestyle and a combination of risk factors such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, smoking, diabetes mellitus, age and family history.Conclusion: Early intervention on coronary heart disease's causes and precipitating factors can reduce morbidity and mortality, especially for pilgrims. For this reason, it is necessary to carry out good, and continuous collaboration between health workers and the pilgrims not only during the implementation of the pilgrimage in the holy land but has started when the pilgrims register as prospective pilgrims.

Abstract

Introduction: Cholelithiasis is one of the critical health problems. Modern lifestyles can allow gallstone disease in Indonesia to become a health problem that needs attention. The research objective is to know the profile of patients with cholelithiasis who performed laparoscopic cholecystectomy in Aloei Saboe Hospital.Method: The research design is a retrospective descriptive study. The population of this study was cholelithiasis patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy and were treated from January 2020 - December 2021, totaling 234 people. The number of samples is 86 people. We were using a purposive sampling data analysis technique, namely univariate analysis.Results: Regarding the distribution of patients based on sex, the most results were obtained from females (70 people, 81.4%), the largest age group is 46-55 years old (23 people, 26.7%), and the majority of patients did not have a history of diabetes mellitus (76 people, 88.4%).Conclusion: The distribution of cholelithiasis patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the Aloei Saboe Hospital is most common in women aged 46-55, and most patients have no history of diabetes mellitus. This finding may offer a primary data reference for further research adding the number of variables to determine the risk factors for cholelithiasis.

Abstract

Introduction: Pericardial effusion refers to an increase in fluid accumulation in the pericardial cavity. This pericardial fluid acts as a lubricant between the layers of the pericardium. We report a case of pericardial effusion, which was significant but not detectable on conventional chest radiographs.Case: A 66-year-old woman with lung adenocarcinoma accompanied by large pericardial effusion without sign of impending tamponade. The diagnosis of pericardial effusion was mainly based on echocardiography, where there is a large pericardial effusion but without signs of cardiac tamponade, and the patient then underwent pericardiocentesis. Previously, the patient had undergone two examinations with two different imaging modalities, namely CXR and chest CT scan, where on the CXR results, the patient only showed cardiomegaly.Discussion: There are four parameters suggestive for assessing a pericardial effusion, namely enlargement of the heart silhouette, pericardial fat stripe, left dominant pleural effusion, and an increase in the transverse diameter of the heart compared to the previous chest X-ray. This parameter is obtained not only based on the position of the photo taken but requires another position, whereas, in this patient, only CXR was performed with the posteroanterior position.Conclusion: When there are complaints of progressive shortness of breath in individuals with an underlying disease that may cause pericardial effusion, then the CXR examination cannot be used as a reference when there are no radiographic signs that point to pericardial effusion because CXR has a low diagnostic value in assessing the presence of pericardial effusion.
