Abstract

Background: Oral candidiasis (OC) was the most common opportunistic infection in HIV/AIDS. Widespread and inadequate use of fluconazole as a prophylaxis and therapy in OC resulted in decreasing susceptibility. Decreased susceptibility of fluconazole will show the increasing in vitro Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) was reported in some studies. Purpose: To determine in vitro susceptibilty of fluconazole to Candida spp in patients with Oropharyngeal Candidiasis and HIV/AIDS. Methods: The study design was descriptive, observational, cross sectional study for three months in Saiful Anwar Hospital Malang. Species identification and fluconazole susceptibility used Vitek II. Result: Thirty three subject with 36 Candida isolates. Candida albicans was the most common species identified in 86% isolates,  C. krusei  8%, and C. glabrata 6%.  C. albicans had MIC between ≤ 1 mg/l – 16 mg/l, C. glabrata 4mg/l, dan C. krusei 2 mg/l - 32 mg/l. Sensitivity of C. albicans to fluconazole was demonstrated in 83% isolates and resistance of non-albicans was found in 8% isolates. Conclution: Most common isolates found was C. albicans which show sensitivity to fluconazole, resistance was found in C. krusei isolates.

Abstract

Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a cutaneous inflammation characterized by skin hyperreactivity due to complex interplay between genetic susceptibility and environmental allergens. In AD, recurrences are frequent and cause problems. Although elevation of total immunoglobulin E (IgE) level; and positive specific IgE to environmental allergens and food are found in most cases, some AD patients with normal IgE level still recurred and raised the possibility of other factors as a trigger. Datas from some studies showed high frequency of positive results in metal patch testing and improvement in AD after allergen  elimination and low metals diet. Based on these studies, metal is considered as a trigger of reccurrences in AD. Nickel, chromium and cobalt are the primary metals that gives high frequency of positive patch test results in patients with intrinsic AD. Purpose: To evaluate metal patch testing results with nickel, chromium and cobalt in atopic dermatitis patients at Dermatology and Venereology Outpatient Clinic Dr. Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya. Methods: This study was observational cross-sectional descriptive study of patch testing to nickel, chromium, and cobalt at 23 AD patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: Patch testing to nickel sulphate metal gave positive result in 17.39% patients, potassium dichromate 8.7%, and cobalt chloride 4.35%. Four people (17.39%) showed positive patch test results; 3 people (13.04%) showed the value of the normal serum total IgE and 1 (4.35%) showed an increasing total serum IgE level. Conclusions: Metal patch testing against AD can be considered in AD patients with normal IgE values.

Abstract

Background: Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection can be associated with a variety of cutaneous as well as mucosal manifestations. Some types of HPV are associated with increased risk of epithelial malignancies; these have been divided into low-risk and high-risk types based on their oncogenic potential. Bowenoid papulosis (BP) strongly associated with high risk type. Purpose: To provide information to health workers, in order to be more concern about BP.Review: The term BP refers to multifocal papular lesions on the genitalia with histological features similar to squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in situ or Bowen’s Disease (BD). Its clinical manifestation is characterized by multiple brownish or erythematous papules located in the anogenital region, affecting mostly young adults with an active sex life. Clinically, it must be differentiated from seborrheic keratosis, and melanocytic nevus. Bowenoid papulosis is strongly associated with HPV 16.Conclusion: The natural course of BP is unpredictable, the lesions may increase, decrease, and even disappear spontaneously. Progression to an invasive SCC has been estimated in 2.6% of cases, HPV type 16 is the most frequent causative agent of BP.

Abstract

Background: Leprosy reaction is an acute episode in leprosy characterized by acute inflammation sometimes accompanied with systemic symptoms. Leprosy type 1 reaction often occurs in borderline leprosy patients. Leprosy type 1 reaction can cause peripheral  nerve damage through neuritis that can lead to disability. Interferon-γ induced protein 10 (IP10) is a chemokine with chemotaxis function to various immune cells such as macrophage, dendritic cells, Natural Killer cells, and activated T lymphocites. Several studies have found an increase of IP10 serum level when type 1 reaction occurred. Purpose: To evaluate the profile of IP10 serum levels in borderline patients with and without type 1 leprosy reaction. Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study, with 34 borderline leprosy patients of which 17 had leprosy type 1 reaction and 17 without reaction that qualify inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: Mean serum IP10 levels in leprosy type 1 reaction groups are 594,123 ± 327,628 pg/mL and 331,648 ± 101,819 pg/mL in groups without reaction. Conclusions: Serum IP10 levels in borderline leprosy patient with type 1 reaction  is higher than patients without reaction, although confounding factors in borderline leprosy patients with type 1 reaction that can influence serum IP10 levels cannot be eliminated. Further studies are needed to reveal the role of IP`10 in type 1 leprosy reaction.

Abstract

Background: Tinea capitis (TC) is an infection of scalp, hair follicles, and the surrounding skin, caused by dermatophyte fungi. Favus, a chronic inflammatory tinea capitis typically seen in Trichophyton schoenleinii infection. Favus is characterized by ‘scutula’. Favus may result in cicatricial alopecia. Purpose: To understand the clinical manifestation and management of tinea capitis. Case: A girl, 8 year-old, 18 kg, with thick crust located at the center of the head since 3 months, became spreading overtime. There were itchy sensation, no fever, no pain. There was history of an itchy red patch on her neck which diminished with topical antifungal. Dermatological examination revealed multiple thick brown-yellow crust sharply marginated, there were erosion and alopecia area beneath the crust. There were no sign of  inflammation, no pustule, no enlargement of cervical and occipital lymphnodes on palpation. Discussion: Wood’s light examination showed no fluorescence and potassium hydroxide (KOH) showed no spores. Result of fungal culture was no colony growth. Patient was given griseofulvin 20 mg/kg body weight/day, wet dressing, and ketoconazole 2% shampoo twice weekly. Good clinical result shown after 10 weeks. Conclusion: Diagnosis of TC established based on history taking, clinical findings, Wood’s light examination, KOH preparation, fungal culture. A negative culture may arise because antifungal treatment had been used prior to collection of the specimen. Griseofulvin still became the drug of choice for tinea capitis even there are new generations of antifungal.
