The spleen is the largest lymphatic organ in the body and plays an important role in fighting infection. It works to remove micro-organisms and their products circulating within the bloodstream and produce antibodies to enhance the immune response. The spleen is an intraperitoneal organ that performs vital haematological and immunological functions. It maintains both innate and adaptive immunity and protects the body from microbial infections. Splenectomy is associated with an impairment in immunoglobulin production, antibody-mediated clearance, and phagocytosis leading to an increased risk of infection and sepsis. Overwhelming post-splenectomy infection (OPSI) is a syndrome of fulminant sepsis occurring in splenectomized (asplenic) individuals that is associated with high mortality and morbidity. Early identification of the at-risk patient, early blood cultures before antibiotic administration, and sepsis bundles should be utilized in these patients. Prompt management and aggressive treatment can alter the course of disease in the at-risk splenectomized patient. Overwhelming post-splenectomy infection can be prevented through vaccination and patient education.

Introduction: Tranexamic acid has found extensive application in obstetrics to prevent and treat postpartum hemorrhage (PPH). This case report investigated an infrequent incidence in which seizures were caused by the administration of tranexamic acid. Even though tranexamic acid is generally regarded as safe, it has been associated with the infrequent yet serious side effects of tranexamic acid-induced seizures. This case report was aimed at investigating the infrequent incidence of tranexamic acid-induced seizures in postpartum patients. Case: It was reported that a woman who was 40 weeks pregnant suffered from postpartum seizures after delivery via cesarean section. These seizures occurred after tranexamic acid was administered to treat postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) caused by uterine rupture, which was accompanied by hypocalcemia. Despite not having a history of epilepsy, preeclampsia, or hypertension, the electrocardiogram (EKG) showed a prolongation of the QT interval. A comprehensive diagnostic evaluation, which involved a CT scan of the head and a D-dimer examination, was conducted, revealing no abnormalities. Discussion: Tranexamic acid, a synthetic derivative of lysine, acts as a competitive inhibitor of plasminogen activation, thereby inhibiting the breakdown of fibrin clots.

Recently, many patients have been diagnosed with personality disorders. Personality disorders are often the underlying factor of other mental disorders. Personality disorders can coexist with other mental disorders, leading to worse outcomes. Personality disorders occur due to multifactorial factors, and one of them that is considered to play a role is parenting style and spirituality.This article contains a literature review from various literatures to analyze parenting styles, spirituality and personality disorders.Authoritative parenting develops high self-esteem, social competence, adaptive coping mechanisms, and healthy personality traits, so that the risk of developing Personality Disorder is low. Authoritarian parenting has a risk of developing PD that features rigidity, obedience, inflexible behavior patterns, and aggression such as Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD) and Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD). Children who are raised permissively have a higher risk of being impulsive and emotionally unstable, such as Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). Neglected parenting triggers emotional detachment, schizoid and antisocial personality disorders. Spirituality has a significant impact on mental health, as a protective factor against personality disorders. Religion and spirituality improve mental health by strengthening religious coping, support, belief. Parenting styles, spirituality and personality disorders is complex and varied.

Background: Pneumonia is an acute infection of the lung parenchyma and is a leading cause of death among children under five worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) notes that 15% of all under-five deaths are due to pneumonia, with a prevalence of 3.55% in Indonesia. Anemia, especially iron deficiency anemia, is also a common health issue among children and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Anemia is believed to increase the risk and worsen the severity of pneumonia due to hypoxia and impaired immune function. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at Waikabubak General Hospital, West Sumba, on children aged 29 days to 5 years who were hospitalized with pneumonia from January 2022 to December 2023. Pneumonia was defined based on WHO criteria. Anemia was defined as blood hemoglobin levels <11 mg/dL. Exclusion criteria included other conditions that might affect the study results. Data analysis was performed using the Chi-square test to assess the relationship between anemia and pneumonia severity. Results: Of the 399 subjects meeting the criteria, 57.9% were male and 42.1% female. A total of 61.9% were diagnosed with mild to moderate pneumonia, and 38.1% were diagnosed with severe pneumonia. Most subjects (55.8%) had anemia.

Bipolar Disorder is a chronic mental illness characterized by periods of mania, depression, and mixed episodes that often need lifelong medication. The first line of pharmacotherapy includes lithium, valproate, or second-generation antipsychotics. Paliperidone is a medication that works in the brain and is also known as a second-generation antipsychotic. Paliperidone is available as an oral extended-release tablet and a once-monthly extended-release suspension for intramuscular injection. Long-acting injectables (LAIs) are used to reduce the non-adherence of oral medication. Paliperidone is one of the LAI that could be used to treat manic, hypomanic, and mixed episodes in patients with bipolar disorder. Paliperidone LAI reduces the number of relapses, hospitalization, and length of stay. As reported in this case, a patient with a manic episode who received paliperidone LAI showed favourable results after a week-long observation with no signs of extrapyramidal symptoms.
躁郁症是一种慢性精神疾病，以躁狂、抑郁和混合发作为特征，通常需要终身服药。一线药物治疗包括锂、丙戊酸钠或第二代抗精神病药物。帕潘立酮是一种作用于大脑的药物，也被称为第二代抗精神病药。帕潘立酮有口服缓释片和每月一次肌肉注射的缓释混悬液两种剂型。长效注射剂（LAIs）用于减少口服药物的不依从性。帕潘立酮是可用于治疗双相情感障碍患者躁狂、躁郁和混合发作的 LAI 之一。帕潘立酮LAI可以减少复发次数、住院次数和住院时间。正如本病例所报告的，一名接受帕利哌酮LAI治疗的躁狂发作患者在经过一周的观察后，没有出现锥体外系症状，显示出良好的治疗效果。

The infancy period is a critical phase in the growth and development of babies, thus requiring special attention. One of the factors that can influence infant growth and development is sleep and rest. Massage can help reduce muscle tension, resulting in babies feeling more relaxed and experiencing deeper sleep. Based on a preliminary study conducted in the Integrated Health Post (Posyandu) of TPMB X's working area, it was found that 11 out of 26 infants (approximately 42.3%) experienced sleep disturbances. Furthermore, interviews with 10 mothers revealed that 7 of them (70%) were not aware of infant massage. Objective: To determine the influence of infant massage on the sleep duration of infants aged 6-12 months in TPMB X, Jagakarsa Sub-District, Srengseng Sawah Village. Methodology: This study employed a quasi-experimental design with the one-group pretest-posttest design. The population consisted of 35 infants aged 6-12 months, and total sampling technique was utilized. The instrument used was a questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis was conducted using the Paired Samples Test. Results: The average sleep quality of infants before receiving infant massage was 12.714, while the average sleep quality after receiving infant massage was 14.086.

Granular cell tumor are rare tumors from Schwann cells with clinicopathological feature results, which may be shown in both benign and malignant tumor. Several tumors commonly appear in the oral cavity, gastrointestinal tract and skin. This must be appropriately treated to avoid repetition or metastatic cancer lesions. The aim study is to search clinicopathological aspects of granular cell tumor diagnosed at different general hospitals in Iraq and to compare these findings with epidemiological findings from different governorates positions. The data was collected from different Iraq governorates in the mouth and tongue area from 2010 to 2020 years. Different parameters were displayed like age group, gender, topography, morphology and distribution of annual patients of the tumor. According to the available information about these characteristics, the inclusion criteria. The factor's frequencies were calculated from descriptive analysis of the data. A total (101) cases of granular cell tumor in mouth and tongue locations were found. (17) cases was the maximum value in the 2015 year and it followed by (15) cases in 2019 year as compared to other years. Baghdad governorate (95) cases have a greater number of patients than other governorates.

Timor-Leste is a high HBV endemicity area with a prevalence of 12.4%. So far there have been no reports of hepatitis B incidence in Timor-Leste in the latest data collection at hospitals in Timor-Leste. HBV infection is most commonly found at the age of 20 to 35 years with different incidence in men and women. For this reason, it is considered necessary to conduct research on the knowledge and attitudes of students at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences of the National University of Timor-Lorosae (UNTL) and the differences between male and female students. This study used a cross-sectional design with quantitative methods. The research sample was 169 students of the seventh semester of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences of the University of Nacional Timor-Lorosae who were selected using the simple random sampling technique. The research measurement tool is a questionnaire divided into three parts, namely questionnaires about demographic characteristics, knowledge about HBV infection, and attitudes towards HBV vaccination.
