The examination of mucociliary transport time was carried out by saccharin test, while the olfactory function was examined by assessing e olfactory threshold, discrimination, and identification (TDI) score using the Sniffin sticks test. Results: There was a significant difference in the mean mucociliary transport time and olfactory function between gas station operators and non-operators (P<0.001). In addition, there was also a significant correlation between the mucociliary transit time and olfactory function (p<0.05), with a strong negative correlation coefficient (r=-0.620). Therefore, the longer the mucociliary transit time, the gas station attendant's olfactory function will decrease. Conclusion: mucociliary transport time and olfactory function in non-operator public gas station officers were better than operators, probably because inhalation of chemical pollutants induces the release of proinflammatory cytokines, chronic inflammation of the nasal mucosa results in impaired olfactory cells and mucin glands.","PeriodicalId":266369,"journal":{"name":"Nusantara Medical Science Journal","volume":"26 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124607698","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}

This study aimed to compare platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in NPC patients before and after chemotherapy based on histopathological type. Method: this cohort study recorded data from medical records. The histopathological type, chemotherapy regimen, clinical stage, and PLR of NPC patients were recorded and compared before and after therapy using paired T-test and Wilcoxon test. The prognostic strength of PLR and the value of the cut-off point was determined by looking at the Area Under Curve (AUC) value using the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve method. Results: A total of 44 NPC patients received chemotherapy for three cycles, including 21 patients with NPC type-2 and 23 patients with NPC type-3. There were significant differences in the average PLR before and after undergoing three cycles of chemotherapy in type III NPC (p=0.023). At the same time, there were no statistically significant differences in type-II NPC (p=0.131). The prognostic ability of pre-chemotherapy PLR in assessing disease progression in type II NPC was good (AUC=0.763) with 100.0% sensitivity and 73.68% specificity. In type III NPC, the prognostic ability of PLR was very good (AUC 0.881) with 100% sensitivity value and 76.19% specificity. Conclusion: A significant PLR decrease was obtained after the 3rd cycle of chemotherapy in type III NPC following brexel-cisplatin regimen but not in type II NPC. This is probably due to the use of a cisplatin therapy regimen that is more responsive to type III NPC. In addition, examining PLR value before undergoing chemotherapy can be a predictor in assessing disease progression in type III NPC patients.","PeriodicalId":266369,"journal":{"name":"Nusantara Medical Science Journal","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130782434","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}

Various modalities to measure airway obstruction in patients with adenoid hypertrophy, including true lateral radiographs, nasoendoscopy, and rhinomanometry are available; however, the results from different studies are still controversial. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the results of rhinomanometry and the true lateral radiographs to the degree of upper airway obstruction in patients with adenoid hypertrophy. Methods: This cross-sectional study included a total of 33 patients with adenoid hypertrophy aged 5-18 years using a purposive sampling technique. Patients diagnosed with adenoid hypertrophy were subjected to a true lateral examination using lateral neck radiographs to measure the degree of airway obstruction. Subsequently, an active anterior rhinomanometry was performed by measuring resistance and nasal airflow and then measuring the degree of airway obstruction. Data analysis was done using Chi-Square test. Results: The rhinomanometric nasal resistance in the inspiratory phase was 0.4159 ± 0.15201 Pa/cm3/s and 0.3694 ± 0.13717 Pa/cm3/s in the expiration phase. The results showed a significant relationship between the true lateral radiographs and both nasal inspiratory (p=0.005) and expiratory resistance (p=0.004). Similarly, the relationship between the true lateral radiographs and nasal airflow on both inspiratory and expiratory rhinomanometry was significant (p<0.05).

A Frequently used method for assessing readmission is an echocardiographic examination by measuring ejection fraction. However, recent studies show that the speckle tracking parameters are more sensitive to predict readmission of heart failure patients. In this study, we assess the role of Global Longitudinal Strain (GLS) and Global Circumferential Strain (GCS) parameters on the Echo Heart Failure Score (EHFS) as a 60-days readmission predictor in heart failure patients. Methods: We included 175 patients admitted through the inpatient installation of Integrated Heart Center Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo General Hospital. In addition, we reviewed up to 60 days after outpatient prospectively by collecting data through medical records. The correlation between echocardiographic parameters and readmissions was analyzed using the Spearman Rank Correlation. To determine each echocardiographic parameter's cut-off point, sensitivity, and specificity, we use Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve. Results:GLS and GCS are very sensitive and specific parameters in predicting 60-days readmission with an area under the curve (AUC) value > 0.7. This study shows that adding GLS and GCS parameters to the EHFS increases the predicted value (AUC 0.850 vs. 0.820) and sensitivity to 79%.
