Abstract. Glaucoma is a multifactorial disease and the second leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, and incidence of open-angle glaucoma more frequent, including in Indonesia. The etiology is still unclear, but the risk factors are the immune system and increased systemic microvascular abnormalities affected by platelets. Objective. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between platelet parameters and visual field defect in POAG. Methods. This research is an analytic study with a case control design. Respondents are 30 POAG patients and 30 normal subjects as a control in Universitas Sumatera Utara Hospital and Satellite Hospital from August to December 2021. Venous blood samples were taken as much as 3 cc to assess platelet parameters, then analyzed in the clinical laboratory. Each group was examined with Humphrey's Perimetry which was further classified based on Hodapp Anderson Parrish criteria. Results. Most subjects in the POAG group are male, 53.3%. In POAG group the mean values of platelet count 267.28 103/μL, PDW 11.41 fL, PCT 0.25%, and MPV 9.49 fL. Conclusion. There was an increase in PDW values in advanced POAG patients, but no significant differences were found in visual field defect between the two groups.

Acne vulgaris (AV) is a chronic inflammation of the follicle pilosebaceous induced by Propionibacterium acnes. Anxious circumstances increase the androgen hormones. This increases the production of sebum and the proliferation then activates Propionibacterium acnes, resulting in AV. To find out the relationship between levels of anxiety and the onset of AV to the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Sumatera Utara (FK USU) 2016 – 2018 conducted observational research with cross sectional design. This research samples as many as 66 students of FK USU Group 2016 – 2018 and using stratified random sampling method. The result of anxiety level of FK USU students indicates that there are mild anxiety (92.4%) moderate anxiety (6.1%) and severe anxiety (1.5%). The AV event of FK USU students indicates that there are mild acne (51.5%) moderate acne (40.9%) severe acne (6.1%) and normal results (1.5%). With the chi square test there is a significant link between the level of anxiety and the onset of the vulgaris (p = 0.026). There is a significant relationship between the levels of anxiety with the onset of AV on student of FK USU 2016-2018.

Introduction: Allergy and 25-Hydroxyvitamin D deficiency were mentioned to be correlated. Still, there was limited number of studies in determining serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D levels as a predictive factor, particularly in allergic rhinitis (AR). This study has never been implemented in Indonesia which the main objective was to explore this topic. Methods: Consecutive sampling was used in recruiting the fifteen subjects. Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D levels were quantified using electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA) method while the total nasal symptom scores were acquired by enumerate all nasal symptoms. Data of serum vitamin D levels and TNSS were analysed statistically.Results: Based on our previous study, the predictive value was illustrated from linier regresion = 10,230 – 0,281 (vitamin D), with negative moderate correlation (r = -0,613). This result can be comparable for someone with vitamin D level of 5.66 ng/mL that could predicted as 8.64 nasal score. Conclusion: 25-Hydroxyvitamin D could be a predictive factor for allergic rhinitis with negative moderate correlation. Hence, in the future research needs to be implemented.

Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is a series of clinical disorders caused by acute ischemic heart disease. The clinical spectrum of ACS is unstable angina pectoris (UAP), non ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Inflammation occurs from the early stages of atheroma formation to plaque rupture and thrombosis. Thrombocytosis and lymphopenia are associated with the degree of systemic inflammation and the platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR) is a new marker involving both hematological indices. ST segment elevation myocardial infarction is a type of acute myocardial infarction with high mortality. Management of STEMI patients is carried out with reperfusion therapy consisting of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and fibrinolytics. Contrast-induced nephropathy is a serious complication of angiograph procedures that results from administration of contrast media.

Diarrhea is a symptom of infection in the intestinal tract with the second death rate in the world in children under five years of age. Risk factors for the incidence of diarrhea in children under five are host factors that increase susceptibility to diarrhea, not giving exclusive breastfeeding (ASI), not giving breastfeeding for 2 years, malnutrition, measles and immunodeficiency. Breastfeeding (ASI) contains the best nutrients that match the needs of the baby and exclusive breastfeeding is carried out from birth to the first six months without any additional food or drink. Several studies have shown that the immunity content of breastfeeding is able to coat the gastrointestinal mucosa and protect the digestive tract from incoming pathogens. The aim of this study is to find out the relationship between exclusive breastfeeding and the incidence of diarrhea in children aged 6-24 months at Puskesmas Aek Parombunan, Sibolga Selatan in 2019. The research design used was observational analytic cross-sectional with the criteria for the research sample of toddlers aged 6-24 months. The sampling technique in this study used total sampling. The research instrument was a medical record and data analysis used the chi-square test. Based on the results of the study, there was a relation between exclusive breastfeeding and the incidence of diarrhea.

Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) is the second-largest infection after respiratory tract infection (WHO, 2013). The prevalence of UTI in Indonesia is relatively high. UTI originated from the invasion and proliferation of microorganisms into the urinary tract in meaningful quantities. Gram-negative bacteria are mostly the cause of UTI including E. coli, Klebsiella sp, Enterobacter sp, and Proteus sp. Patients with UTI with inadequate treatment can experience complications e.g., acute renal failure and urosepsis. This study aims to find out the profile of bacteria that cause UTI at RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan in 2019. This descriptive study is using a non-analytical retrospective approach conducted to secondary data from urinary culture examination at RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan. Data were analyzed using the SPSS 24. Gram-negative bacteria results of 72.7% with E. coli postulated as the most common etiology (33,3%) and gram-positive bacteria results of 27.3%, dominated by Enterococcus faecalis (16.3%). The sensitivity study exhibited various results e.g., 100%, 98.2%, and 97.0% in E. coli for Tigecycline, Meropenem, and Amikacin respectively. Enterococcus faecalis also posed a similar results regarding its sensitivity result to different antibiotics. Gram-negative bacteria are the most common bacterial etiology of UTI, specifically E. coli with comparable sensitivity results
尿路感染是仅次于呼吸道感染的第二大感染(世卫组织,2013年)。印度尼西亚尿路感染的流行率相对较高。尿路感染起源于微生物大量侵入和增殖进入尿路。革兰氏阴性菌是引起尿路感染的主要原因,包括大肠杆菌、克雷伯氏杆菌、肠杆菌和变形杆菌等。尿路感染患者如果治疗不当,可能出现急性肾功能衰竭和尿脓毒症等并发症。这项研究旨在找出2019年在RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan引起尿路感染的细菌概况。本描述性研究采用非分析性回顾性方法,对RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan泌尿培养检查的次要数据进行分析。数据采用SPSS 24进行分析。革兰氏阴性菌占72.7%,其中大肠杆菌为最常见的病原菌(33.3%);革兰氏阳性菌占27.3%,以粪肠球菌为主(16.3%)。对替加环素、美罗培南和阿米卡星的敏感性研究显示出不同的结果,如大肠杆菌对替加环素、美罗培南和阿米卡星的敏感性分别为100%、98.2%和97.0%。粪肠球菌对不同抗生素的敏感性结果也相似。革兰氏阴性菌是UTI最常见的细菌病因,特别是大肠杆菌具有可比的敏感性结果
