The abnormalities olfactory pathways can cause by inflammatory response in adipose tissue in obese patients and excessive inflammation due to hyperreactivity of the immune system to allergens in allergic patients. This study aims to analyze the relationship between obesity and allergies to the occurrence of olfactory disorders in COVID-19. Method: It was an observational study during pandemic. Subjects were adult COVID-19 patients in the dr. Kariadi Hospital from June to July 2021. Patient with complete medical record ask for olfactory and allergic questionnaire. Patient with nasal tumor were excluded. Result: We found 100 subjects who meet the criteria. There was a significant difference in smell disturbances between obese and non-obese subjects. (p = 0.019, OR 4.99). There was a significant difference (p=0.001) in complaints of olfactory disorders between allergic and non-allergic subjects, whereas all allergic subjects experienced olfactory disorders.

OBJECTIVE: to describe and comprehend the diagnosis and management of Lucio’s phenomenon in leprosy patients CASE: Male, 34 years old with extensive wounds on both arms and legs. About 3 years earlier, the patient felt burning heat in both hands and feet followed by loss of eyebrows and eyelashes, and a change in the shape of the nose. The patient had not received previous therapy. Physical examination showed that the patient appeared anaemic, leonine facies, megalobuli, madarosis, saddle nose, thickening of the ulnar and posterior tibial nerves, deformities of the fingers and toes, and amputations of several fingers. The dermatological status showed multiple ulcers of irregular shape and varying sizes with pus and necrotic tissue. Reitz serum test revealed a bacterial index of +3 with a morphological index of 90%, and routine blood showed hypochromic microcytic anaemia and leucocytosis. The patient received corticosteroid therapy, anti-leprosy combination therapy, antibiotics, iron tablets and wound care. DISCUSSION: Lucio’s phenomenon consists of skin lesions that range from painful red-black patches to flaky blisters and ulcerations. These lesions usually occur on the lower extremities, and may extend proximally and distally. The lesions improved after administration of corticosteroids and anti-leprosy. Delayed diagnosis leads to significant disability and community transmission of the disease. The later the diagnosis, the more serious the disease becomes and can lead to death due to sepsis. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are important. CONCLUSION: Early detection is crucial in order to deliver therapy earlier and prevent disease worsening.","PeriodicalId":117574,"journal":{"name":"Medica Hospitalia : Journal of Clinical Medicine","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139211366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aim: To prove the effectiveness of sucralfate and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) combination for Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) expression in diabetic ulcer healing. Methods: This research is an experimental study of Phase I Clinical Trial with post-test only group design. There were 20 patients with diabetic ulcers divided into two groups, namely the treated group that was given sucralfate and PRP therapy and the control group was given standard therapy of normal saline drainage and gauze covered. Parameters were VEGF expression levels, wound area after being given therapy, and side effect from the treatment. Data on VEGF expression levels were obtained by means of examination with the Quantikine Human VEGF-ELISA Quantikine, R&D System, Inc, Minneapolis. The measurement of the wound area was assessed based on several criteria, namely grade 0 (no change), grade 1 (wound size reduced to less than of the previous wound), grade 2 (wound size was reduced to less than of the previous wound, but granulation was visible), and grade 3 (wound has closed completely). Result: In unpaired t-test, the mean VEGF expression was 98.18+10.96 in the treatment group and 66.69+23.79 in the control group which showed significant difference in VEGF expression levels (p = 0.003). In Mann-Whitney test, the mean wound area was 0.68+0.40 in the treatment group and 0.77+0.67 in the control group which showed that there was not any significant difference in wound area (p = 0.152). There were no side effects in both study group. Conclusions: The combination of sucralfate and PRP can increase VEGF levels significantly in diabetic ulcer patients but does not show a different effect in reducing wound area compared to standard treatment. The combination did not cause any side effects in the study subjects, as well as those using standard treatment.","PeriodicalId":117574,"journal":{"name":"Medica Hospitalia : Journal of Clinical Medicine","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139213747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From the examination results, it is possible to determine the presence of a heart condition that could impair the surgical outcome. Furthermore, the examination is slightly influenced by the subjectivity of observers. Purpose: To evaluate the inter-observer agreement on the reader of a 12-lead ECG on elderly patients subjected to elective surgery. Method: A consequential ECG examination was conducted on elderly patients who underwent elective surgery at Dr. Kariadi Hospital  Semarang between July and November 2021. Two junior internist observers were independently involved in reading the ECG results in different places. The inter-observer reliability analysis used kappa statistics to determine consistency between observers. Result: Analysis was carried out on 193 patients aged  60-87 years old, with a prevalence of abnormal ECG was 33.7%. Kappa Conformity Value was 0.864 (95 % CI: 0.790-0.938,  p<0.001).

Rupture of an intracranial aneurysm causes acute extravasation of arterial blood under high pressure into the subarachnoid space and often into the brain parenchyma and ventricles. Bleeding triggers a complex series of events, which can ultimately lead to early brain injury, delayed cerebral ischemia, and systemic complications. Cases: There were six cases of subarachnoid hemorrhage. Some patients come clinically with severe headache and loss of consciousness. The patient has been treated quickly and aggressively and even put on a ventilator for complications of respiratory failure, support for shock and management of aneurysm clipping and EVD. Rapid and precise diagnosis in the management of patients with SAH is of paramount importance, within the first few hours after the onset of SAH. The risk for early neurologic damage and high rates of severe long-term complications necessitated aggressive early management. Conclusion: Rapid diagnosis and attentive management of patients with SAH are essential, as early deterioration is possible within the first few hours after the onset of SAH. The risk for early neurologic damage and high rates of severe long-term complications necessitated aggressive early management. Prevention and Management of Complications.
