Increased chronic kidney disease (CKD) mortality rate is significantly associated with increased blood phosphate levels. Hyperphosphatemia control is one of the main focuses in the management of hemodialysis (HD) patients. A high protein diet has been suggested to prevent malnutrition in hemodialysis patients. However, a high protein and phosphorus diet has the risk of increasing the phosphate level in the blood circulation, leading to a higher mortality rate of hemodialysis patients. This study aimed to prove that the level of protein and phosphate intake is associated with hyperphosphatemia in CKD patients with routine HD. This was cross-sectional analytical study conducted from September to October 2020 on 66 CKD patients who underwent hemodialysis. Subject characteristics and phosphorus and protein intake data were obtained from a questionnaire food recall adapted from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. Data consumption patterns were processed using the nutritional survey software to obtain the nutritional values. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test to identify the relationship and risk between hyperphosphatemia and diet protein, phosphorus, and protein-phosphorus ratio. The confidence level in this study was 95%. There was a significant relationship between protein and phosphorus intake in hyperphosphatemia in CKD patients. The risk factors for hyperphosphatemia were high phosphorus intake (p=0.018; OR=3.886;95% CI: 1.212–12.460) and adequate protein intake (p=0.035; OR=3.674; 95% CI: 1.049-12.865). This study showed no significant relationship between phosphorus-protein ratio, protein-phosphorus ratio, and hyperphosphatemia incidence. In conclusion, high protein intake and excessive phosphorus intake provide a significant relationship to the incidence of hyperphosphatemia in CKD patients undergoing routine hemodialysis.

Thyroidectomy is a relatively safe surgical procedure for thyroid gland removal with a with mortality and morbidity rates of less than 2–3%. Complication in the form of sound changes often goes unnoticed in post-thyroid patients despite its high incidence rate, i.e., 87% of all surgical cases. Laryngeal edema as the underlying cause can be triggered by intubation or extubation during anesthesia; malfunction of the strap muscles; surgery that directly causes injury to the superior laryngeal nerve; and recurrent laryngeal nerve injuries. Several studies on the use of dexamethasone to prevent or reduce laryngeal edema that occurs after thyroidectomy have been conducted with controversial results. This study was conducted to solve this controversy. This was a double-blind randomized prospective study on thyroid tumors patients who underwent thyroidectomy at Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung, Indonesia, from December 2020 to May 2021. This study evaluated dexamethasone effects on the patient’s sound changes using the Sound Handicap Index (VHI) questionnaire before surgery, day 1 after the surgery, and day 7 after the surgery. Analysis showed that the VHI significantly decreased on day 1 (p<0.01) and on day 7 (p<0.01), and the difference between the VHI on day 1 (D-1) and day 7 (D-7) was significant (p<0.01). When analyzed using the bivariate analysis, no statistically significant difference was found between the VHI variable before surgery, D-1, and D-7and VHI H7 in the group of patients using dexamethasone and without dexamethasone. Dexamethasone administration has no significant effect on laryngeal edema associated with changes in sound quality.

Vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) is commonly linked with recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI). Thus, the patterns of the pathogenic microorganism becomes important consideration in the management of this disease. This study aimed to describe patient profiles, disease etiology, and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of microorganisms in VVF patients. This retrospective study was conducted on 49 medical records of vesicovaginal fistula patients seen from January 2016 to December 2020. The most prevalent age group of the patients was 40-50 years old. Analysis demonstrated that the leading etiology for VVF among these patients was malignancy (73.47%). The antimicrobial susceptibility was tested using the disc diffusion method and Escherichia coli (44.90%) and Proteus mirabilis (14.29%) were identified as the bacterial pathogens most frequently isolated from urine samples. Of the 39 patients with significant growth of organism cases, 29 (74.35%) had symptomatic UTIs. The isolated gram-negative bacteria had excellent sensitivity to aztreonam, ertapenem, and meropenem, with a more than 90% susceptibility rate, while the gram-positive bacteria had good sensitivity to amikacin, cefepime, tigecycline, aztreonam, ertapenem, and meropenem, with a more than 90% susceptibility. In conclusion, bacterial culture and antibiotic susceptibility test (AST) remains an essential part of managing VVF and their results can be used as a reference for empirical therapy. Amikacin, cefepime, tigecycline, aztreonam, ertapenem, and meropenem should be considered for treatment of UTIs associated with VVF.

Testicular torsion is a common urological emergency among children, peaking in neonates and pubertal age with an incidence rate of 3.8 in 100.000 (0.004%) annually. This study aimed to explore the characteristics of testicular torsion cases and risk factors for orchiectomy in testicular torsion patients. This was a retrospective study on medical records of patients diagnosed with testicular torsion underwent surgery at the urology department of Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung, Indonesia, from January 2009 to August 2019. Patient characteristics including age, duration of symptom, location, etiology, and degree of torsion were analyzed. A total of 86 cases of testicular torsion were identified, with most cases (54 cases, 62.8%) occured at the mean age 14.67 ± 2.4 years old. Most patients (69 patients, 80.2 %) arrived more than six hours after the onset, and 65 (75.5%) and 4 (4.6%) of them underwent orchiectomy and orchidopexy, respectively. The remaining patients (17 patients, 19.8%) came less than 6 hours after the onset and only 8 (9.3%) and 9 (10.4%) underwent orchiectomy and orchidopexy, respectively. Both duration of torsion (p = 0.000, P<0.05) and degree of torsion (p = 0.006 , P<0.05) were significantly correlated with orchiectomy. In conclusion, the risk factor for orchiectomy is strongly related to duration and degree of torsion. The chance for testis salvation increases if torsion happens before 4.5 hours and the degree of torsion is below 180 degrees. Prompt diagnosis and treatment is the only key to testicular salvation.

Different dental cements and restorative materials may have various impacts on the shear bond strength (SBS) to titanium alloy of dental implants, and some fluoride-containing cements may destroy the oxide layer of Ti alloys. The aim of this study was to evaluate the retention and SBS of different dental cements to titanium alloy using different restorative materials and also the corrosive effect of dental cements on titanium alloy. In this in-vitro study, a total of ninety titanium alloy discs (10×3 mm) and restorative material discs (7×3mm) consisting of Co-Cr soft metal, zirconia, and Ni-Cr were constructed. Three dental cement of 2 different compositional classes, glass ionomer (GI) and zinc phosphate (ZP), were used to cement the discs (n=10 in each paired disks). SBS was evaluated using a universal testing machine with a cross-head speed of 1mm/min. A stereomicroscope (×32) and a scanning electron microscope were used to determine the fracture pattern and titanium corrosion, respectively. Data were then analyzed statistically using one-way ANOVA and Tamhane comparison test (P<0.05). The mean SBS of studied groups ranged from 0.12±0.07 to 6.2±0.97 Mpa, with the Ni-Cr and zirconia were demonstrated as the materials with the highest and lowest SBS to GI and ZP, respectively. The cements created a strong bond to the Co-Cr soft metal while the GI cement remained on restorative material disc surfaces in all samples, except in the zirconia sample. Mixed patterns were mostly seen in ZP cement groups. To conclude, applying fluoride-containing cements have no effect on titanium.

Rhabdomyosarcoma is a rare malignant tumor that attacks the differentiation of skeletal muscle and usually affects children, contributing to about 60% of all soft tissue sarcomas. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between p27Kip1 immunoexpression and p45Skp2 and p38Jab1 coactivators, as well as the relationship between p27Kip1 immunoexpression and p45Skp2 and p38Jab1 coactivators on stages and prognosis of oral RMS in children. This was a restrospective study on the immunoexpression of p27Kip1 and p45Skp2 and p38Jab1 coactivators on RMS cells. The RMS stage was determined according to the American Joint Committee of Cancer/AJCC of stages 1–4, and were divided into group I (stages 1 and 2) and group II (3 and 4). Samples were retrieved fromt he paraffin blocks of patients with embryonal RMS. Each paraffin block was cut, and 6 samples with 5 µm thickness from each block were examined using p27Kip1, p45Skp2, and p38Jab1 proteins. The analysis was performed using a linear regression test on the relationship between p27Kip1 and p45Skp2 and p38Jab1, resulting in a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05) and a coefficient value of b -1.36. Meanwhile, the stage was analyzed using the Wald test of 8.0688, resulting in a p-value of 0.0045 with a significant negative correlation. Analysis on the relationship between p45Skp2 and p38Jab1 and the RMS stage was performed using the Gamma test, resulting in a significant positive correlation (p<0.05).

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic condition where the body's ability to produce and utilize insulin is impaired; thus, wound healing process is slower than usual in patients with DM. Lemon pepper has both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. This study aimed to investigate the effect of topical application of lemon pepper fruit ethanol extracts on the healing process of oral traumatic ulcers in diabetic rats. This study was performed at the Pharmacology Laboratory, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Prima Indonesia from September 2021–October 2021. Thirty males diabetic Wistar rats were thermally injured on the lower labial mucosa and divided into five groups: control, standard, and lemon pepper gel 5%, 7.5%, and 10% groups. The ulcer size was measured after injury and on the 7th and 14th day. On the last day, all rats underwent both routine blood count and histology study for oral ulcer tissue. On the 14th day, all treatment groups showed some significant difference wound contraction, with the highest tendency of wound contraction seen in both lemon pepper gel 10% and standard groups (62.50%. p-value =0.001). The improvement of wound contraction was also supported by reduced white blood cell count (p-value<0.05) in routine blood count and regeneration of epidermis and dermis tissues in the histology study. Hence, it can be concluded that the lemon pepper extract gel in all concentrations has good physical stability and the lemon pepper gel with the highest concentration group presents the best ulcer healing activity compared to other concentrations and has similar ulcer healing activity as the standard group that receives Kenalog® in Orabase.

Increased prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) leads to the increased of various complications including diabetic nephropathy, which can lead to the end stage renal disease (ESRD). The Epithelial sodium channel (ENaC), which is located in distal convoluted tubules, plays an important role in transepithelial sodium reabsorption for electrolyte homeostasis. Diabetes mellitus can cause changes in ENaC function which will interfere with kidney blood pressure control, worsening hypertension, and kidney injury that eventually may trigger diabetic nephropathy. The aim of this study was to determine the validity of urinary ENaC for screening diabetic nephropathy in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with uACR as the gold standard. This was a cross-sectional analytical observational study conducted in Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung, Indonesia, from December 2020 to July 2021. The subjects were 87 patients T2DM with hypertension with the majority of subjects (n=62) had a mean age of 56 years old and were experiencing albuminuria and hyperglycemia with DM for a duration of < 10 years. The poor glycemic control in these patients accelerated the occurrence of kidney damage. Result showed that urine ENaC level had a sensitivity and specificity of 82.3% and 48%, respectively, with 72.4% accuracy. The cut-off point of urine ENaC in this study was 0.98 ng/mL. Hence, urine ENaC level can be used as a test to screen for diabetic nephropathy with 82.3% sensitivity.
