Background: Condyloma acuminata (CA), a prevalent sexually transmitted infection caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), presents challenges in treatment due to its high recurrence rate. While various treatment modalities exist, intralesional immunotherapy with the mumps, measles, rubella (MMR) vaccine has shown promise in managing HPV-related conditions. This case report investigates intralesional MMR vaccine in treating recurrent CA. Case presentation: A 24-year-old female presented with recurrent CA lesions on the labia majora and perianal region. Despite prior treatment with trichloroacetic acid (TCA), the lesions had reappeared. Intralesional MMR vaccine injections were administered twice, one month apart, resulting in complete lesion resolution within six weeks of the second injection. No recurrence was observed during a six-month follow-up period, and the patient reported only mild, transient pain at the injection sites. Conclusion: This case report highlights the potential of intralesional MMR vaccine as an effective and well-tolerated treatment option for recurrent CA. Further research is warranted to validate these findings and establish optimal treatment protocols.
背景:尖锐湿疣(CA)是由人类乳头瘤病毒(HPV)引起的一种常见性传播感染,由于复发率高,给治疗带来了挑战。虽然治疗方法多种多样,但使用腮腺炎、麻疹、风疹(MMR)疫苗进行局部免疫治疗在治疗 HPV 相关疾病方面前景看好。本病例报告探讨了腮腺炎、麻疹、风疹(MMR)疫苗的局部免疫疗法在治疗复发性 CA 中的应用。病例介绍:一名 24 岁女性的大阴唇和肛周出现复发性 CA 病变。尽管之前曾使用过三氯乙酸(TCA)治疗,但病变仍再次出现。她两次在鞘内注射麻风腮疫苗,每次间隔一个月,结果在第二次注射后的六周内病变完全消退。在 6 个月的随访期间未发现复发,患者仅报告注射部位有轻微、短暂的疼痛。结论:本病例报告强调了局部注射麻风腮疫苗作为一种有效且耐受性良好的复发性 CA 治疗方案的潜力。为验证这些研究结果并制定最佳治疗方案,有必要开展进一步的研究。

Background: Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a rare but serious condition characterized by left ventricular dysfunction in late pregnancy or early postpartum. Early diagnosis is essential to prevent complications such as thromboembolism. N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is a promising biomarker for the diagnosis of PPCM. Case presentation: An 18-year-old female presented with progressive shortness of breath and generalized edema. Physical examination and echocardiography revealed acute heart failure with multiple left ventricular thrombus. Very high levels of NT-proBNP (1,796 pg/mL) supported the diagnosis of PPCM. The patient was successfully treated with standard heart failure therapy and anticoagulants. Conclusion: This case report highlights the importance of NT-proBNP in the early diagnosis of PPCM and detecting of thromboembolic complications. Significant increases in NT-proBNP levels, even without obvious symptoms, should be promptly evaluated for PPCM, especially in high-risk populations.

Background: Complex febrile seizures (KDK) are a type of febrile seizure that is more severe than simple febrile seizures (KDS), characterized by longer duration, recurrence within 24 hours, and/or focal onset. KDK can be a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge, especially in infants. Case presentation: This case report presents a 1-year-old baby girl who was treated in the emergency department (ER) with complaints of recurrent seizures and persistent fever. Physical examination revealed fever and tachypnea, while laboratory examination revealed hyperglycemia, hyperkalemia, hyponatremia, and decreased hematocrit. The patient's history indicated previous episodes of febrile seizures, but no significant family history. Conclusion: The patient was diagnosed with KDK and given fluid resuscitation, antipyretics, anticonvulsants, and antibiotics. The patient's parents are educated about KDK and its management. The patient's prognosis is considered good, with a small chance of long-term neurologic sequelae if treated appropriately.

Background: Retinoblastoma (RB) is a common malignancy that affects children and is fatal if left untreated. This case report aims to raise awareness the importance of starting therapy immediately in RB patients. Case presentation: A girl aged 1 year 9 months, came with complaints that her left eye (LE) appeared white for 2 weeks. Anterior segment examination was normal. On funduscopic examination, optic nerve was difficult to evaluate, covered by a mass, multiple mass scars on the retina, a size of > 6 mm at the posterior pole, and vitreous seeding. Ultrasound examination and CT scan showed an intraocular mass with calcification. The patient was diagnosed with group D intraocular LE RB and was planned for enucleation but was postponed due to cost constraints. The patient came back after 1 year and was diagnosed with extraocular LE RB stage IVB. Conclusion: Early diagnosis without adequate therapy leads to tumor spread and reduces patient survival.

Background: Cognitive frailty (CF) is a syndrome characterized by cognitive and physical decline in older adults, which increases the risk of disability, dependency, and mortality. This study aims to identify and analyze risk factors for CF incidence through a systematic review and meta-analysis. Methods: A literature search was conducted on PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases until June 2024. Observational studies reporting associations between potential risk factors and CF incidence in the elderly population were included. Two independent researchers performed study selection, data extraction, and risk of bias assessment. Meta-analysis was performed using a random effects model, and heterogeneity between studies was evaluated. Results: A total of 25 studies (n=45,678 participants) met inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis showed that advanced age (OR=1.89; 95% CI 1.65-2.16), female gender (OR=1.38; 95% CI 1.19-1.60), history of cardiovascular disease (OR=1.52; 95% CI 1.23-1.87), diabetes mellitus (OR=1.45; 95% CI 1.18-1.78), depression (OR=2.08; 95% CI 1.72-2.51), and low physical activity (OR=1.63; 95% CI 1.35-1.97) are risk factors significant for the incidence of CF. Low educational level (OR=1.71; 95% CI 1.43-2.04), low socioeconomic status (OR=1.58; 95% CI 1.29-1.93), and smoking history (OR=1.31; 95% CI 1.05-1.64) were also associated. with an increased risk of CF. Conclusion: This study identified several modifiable and nonmodifiable risk factors for CF occurrence. Interventions targeting these risk factors may help prevent or delay the development of CF in older adults.

Background: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a medical emergency that requires rapid diagnosis and treatment. Immature platelet fraction (IPF) is a hematological parameter that has the potential to be a biomarker for differentiating types of ACS. This study aims to compare IPF values in ACS patients with unstable angina pectoris (UAP), Non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), and ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods: This research is an analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design. The research subjects were ACS patients treated at Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital, Padang, Indonesia between January 2023 to December 2023. IPF values were measured using the Sysmex XN-1500 tool. Statistical analysis was carried out using the ANOVA test and post-hoc Tukey test. Results: A total of 150 ACS patients (50 UAP, 50 NSTEMI, 50 STEMI) were included in this study. The mean IPF value in the STEMI group (6.8 ± 2.1%) was significantly higher than that in the NSTEMI (4.5 ± 1.8%) and UAP (3.2 ± 1.5%) groups (p < 0.001). ROC analysis showed that the IPF value had an AUC of 0.89 (95% CI: 0.84-0.94) for differentiating STEMI from NSTEMI/UAP. Conclusion: IPF values were higher in STEMI patients compared to NSTEMI and UAP. This parameter has the potential to be a biomarker for differentiating types of ACS, especially in differentiating STEMI from NSTEMI/UAP.

Background: Although the incidence of pelvic fractures is only 7% of all trauma, the mortality reaches 21.5%. Management of pelvic fractures remains a challenge because it is often a polytrauma that requires multidisciplinary management and large resources. Knowledge of the characteristics of patients with pelvic fractures is expected to help in management and reduce mortality. Methods: This observational study was conducted retrospectively with a population and sample of all pelvic fracture patients in the emergency room at Dr. Kariadi Hospital Semarang for the period January 2021 to December 2023. The characteristics observed included gender, age, fracture classification, etiology, trauma score, fracture pattern, and management. and output. The data obtained is then presented descriptively. Results: A total of 34 patients with pelvic fractures were recorded in this study. There were 16 male patients and 18 female patients. A total of 3 patients were less than 17 years old, 19 patients were 17-34 years old, 7 patients were 35-52 years old and 3 patients were more than 52 years old. The most common cause of pelvic fractures was traffic accidents (KLL) with 28 patients, followed by work accidents (4 patients) and other trauma (2 patients). Based on the Young-Burgess classification, the most common pelvic fracture pattern was LC1 (11 patients), followed by APC1 (3 patients), APC2 (4 patients), APC3 (3 patients), LC2 (2 patients), LC3 (6 patients), VS (4 patients), and CM (1 patient). A total of 4 patients had an ISS score of 1-8, 8 patients had an ISS score of 9-15, 9 patients had an ISS score of 16-25, and 13 patients had an ISS score of more than 25. The most common accompanying injury was long bone fracture (15 patients), head injury in 10 patients, abdominal trauma in 9 patients, and thorax trauma in 4 patients. Operative treatment was carried out in 21 patients, while 13 other patients were treated non-operatively. Of the 34 patients, 8 patients died and 26 others were discharged in good condition. Conclusion: Most pelvic fractures occur at the age of 17-34 years and the most common cause is KLL. All pelvic fracture patients had concomitant injuries and the majority of patients had unstable fractures that required operative treatment. Mortality due to pelvic fracture and/or accompanying injuries is 23.5%.

Background: In adults, portal hypertension is generally caused by hepatic cirrhosis, whereas in children it is more commonly caused by extrahepatic abnormalities with normal liver function. Portal hypertension causes hemodynamic abnormalities. Gastrointestinal bleeding is the most severe clinical manifestation of portal hypertension in both children and adults. Pathogenetically, increased pressure in the portal vein can be caused by increased vascular resistance and increased portal blood flow. The site of obstruction can be prehepatic (portal vein obstruction), intrahepatic (presinusoidal: eg congenital hepatic fibrosis; para sinusoidal: cirrhosis, hepatotoxic drug therapy, vitamin A hepatotoxicity; post sinusoidal: venocclusive disease) and/or post hepatic (Budd-Chiari syndrome, constrictive pericarditis). Case presentation: The study reports the results of observations of a case of a boy, FAA, aged 12 years and 2 months who came to the emergency room at Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital Padang with the main complaint of hematemesis and splenomegaly from physical examination. Non cirrhotic portal fibrosis is a cause that is not uncommon in the population in the early second decade of life. Some children with non-cirrhotic portal fibrosis as adults can end up with end stage liver disease. Conclusion: Patients with noncirrhotic or cirrhotic portal hypertension can be assessed using the Child Pugh instrument as an instrument that is still used to determine the survival rate if patients with portal hypertension.
背景:成人门静脉高压一般由肝硬化引起,而儿童门静脉高压更常见于肝功能正常的肝外异常。门静脉高压会导致血液动力学异常。消化道出血是儿童和成人门静脉高压症最严重的临床表现。从病理上讲,门静脉压力升高可能是由于血管阻力增加和门静脉血流量增加造成的。阻塞部位可以是肝前(门静脉阻塞)、肝内(窦前:如先天性肝纤维化;窦旁:肝硬化、肝毒性药物治疗、维生素 A 肝毒性;窦后:静脉闭塞性疾病)和/或肝后(Budd-Chiari 综合征、缩窄性心包炎)。病例介绍:本研究报告了对一例男孩 FAA(12 岁零 2 个月)病例的观察结果,该男孩来到巴东 M. Djamil 医生综合医院急诊室就诊,主诉是吐血和脾脏肿大。非肝硬化性门脉纤维化在出生后 10 年的人群中并不少见。一些患有非肝硬化门脉纤维化的儿童在成年后可能会出现终末期肝病。结论非肝硬化性或肝硬化性门脉高压症患者可以使用儿童普氏仪器进行评估,该仪器目前仍用于确定门脉高压症患者的存活率。
