Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) infection or known as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a highly infectious disease that has been declared as a world pandemic by WHO. Although the majority of patients only experience mild symptoms, older patients and those with comorbidities are in the risk of falling into critically ill and even death. This is thought to correlate with systemic inflammatory response and oxidative stress imbalance. N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is recognized as a potent mucolytic, yet its lesser-known function as an antioxidant is a precursor of glutathione. Basic aspects and either in vivo or in vitro studies showed various mechanisms of NAC acting as a counterbalance in viral infections and its role in decreasing inflammation and oxidative stress. High-dose NAC is reported to be effective as an antioxidant in pneumonia, influenza, sepsis, and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Early evidence in COVID-19 patients showed that NAC could be beneficial. This review gives the scientific background in considering NAC as an adjuvant treatment for COVID-19. © 2021.

Background: This study evaluated thiamine levels in Indonesian children with congenital heart diseases before and after cardiopulmonary bypass and their relationship with clinical and surgical outcomes. Method: A prospective, single center cross-sectional study was conducted to evaluate thiamine levels in 25 children undergoing congenital heart diseases surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass procedure. Thiamine levels were quantified using a high-performance liquid chromatography method. Result: Preoperative thiamine deficiency was observed in one subject. Thiamine levels did not differ statistically between nutritional status and clinical outcomes categories. There were no significant changes in thiamine levels before and after cardiopulmonary bypass (median pre versus post (P25–75): 50 ng/mL (59.00–116.00) and 83.00 ng/mL (70.00–101.00), p = 0.84), although a significant reduction in thiamine levels were observed with longer cardiopulmonary bypass duration (p = 0.017, R = −0.472). Conclusion: Thiamine levels were not significantly impacted by cardiac surgery except in patients undergoing extremely long cardiopulmonary bypass duration. However, clinical outcome was not affected by thiamine levels. © The Author(s) 2021. |

BACKGROUND: Melasma is a common hyperpigmentation disorder, which causes brownish discoloration of the face. Despite unclear mechanisms, thyroid hormones were thought to play a role in melasma. AIM: This study aims to determine and compare the clinical improvement of melasma in hyperthyroid patients receiving anti-thyroid drugs. METHODS: An interventional study with a quasi-experimental design (pre-post-intervention study) was conducted at the Internal Medicine Outpatient Clinic and Dermatology and Venereology Outpatient Clinic, Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta, Indonesia, from July 2019 to March 2020. A comparative analysis was done to compare the modified melasma area and severity index (mMASI) in hyperthyroid patients before and after 12 weeks of anti-thyroid drugs. All subjects did not receive any additional topical therapies for their melasma. The clinical features were evaluated objectively at baseline and 12th-week visit, by mMASI score on different areas of the face (forehead, left-right malar, and chin) and Wood’s lamp examination. RESULTS: All areas showed a decline in mMASI score components (e.g., involvement areas and darkness degree) after 12 weeks of treatment. However, only the malar area showed a significant decline (p < 0.05). Wood’s lamp examination at baseline revealed dermal type melasma on 17 subjects, mixed type on six subjects, and epidermal type on one subject. All types remained unchanged after 12 weeks of treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Our study demonstrated that mMASI score in malar area improved significantly, this might be because malar area included this study were comprised of epidermal, dermal, and mixed type. On the other hand, based on Wood’s lamp examination, all types of melasma remained unchanged after 12 weeks of treatment. © 2021 Irma Bernadette S.

COVID-19 pandemic has become a global public health priority. The rapid increase in infection numbers, along with a significant number of deaths, has made the virus a serious threat to human health. Rapid, reliable, and simple diagnostic methods are critical to controlling the disease. While Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) is the current diagnostic gold standard, Reverse Transcriptase Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (RT-LAMP) appears to be a compelling alternative diagnostic test due to its greater simplicity, shorter time to obtain a result, and lower cost. This study examined RT-LAMP application for rapid identification of SARS-CoV-2 infection compared to the RT-PCR assay. A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted over six scientific databases in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. Original studies published in English conducted on human clinical samples were included. Articles evaluating the sensitivity and specificity of RT-LAMP relative to RT-PCR were considered eligible. Quality assessment of bias and applicability was examined based on QUADAS-2. A total of 351 studies were found based on the keywords and search queries. Fourteen eligible case–control studies fit the mentioned criteria. Quality assessment using QUADAS-2 indicated alow risk of bias for all included studies. All case studies, containing 2,112 samples, had acumulative sensitivity of 95.5% (CI 97.5% = 90.8–97.9%) and cumulative specificity of 99.5% (CI 97.5% = 97.7–99.9%). The RT-LAMP assay could be areliable alternative COVID-19 diagnostic method due to its reduced cost and processing time compared to RT-PCR. RT-LAMP could potentially be utilized during critical high-throughput and high-demand situations. © 2021 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. |

One of the wound treatments was negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT), which used wound dressings on the wound bed to ameliorate the wound healing. Unfortunately, most wound dressings were two dimensional (2D), lacking the ability to cover severe wounds with a straightforward procedure. The sheets needed to be stacked following the wound curvature, which might be problematic since improper stacking could hinder the wound healing. Regarding the mentioned problems, our group develop 3D wound dressings, which are made using 3D printers. The wound dressings are made of polycaprolactone (PCL), polyurethane (PU), and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). As the initial stage, the mechanical integrity of the soft polymers was investigated under uniaxial tensile and uniaxial compressive stress using computational methods. The polymers were defined as 3D lattices following the dimension of existing wound dressings. Based on the simulation results of displacement and von Mises stress, the three polymers are mechanically safe to be used as wound dressing materials. © 2021 College of Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), Malaysia.

BACKGROUND: Double-bundle (DB) anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) has been known to result in better functional outcomes, joint stability, and lower revision rates compared to single-bundle (SB) ACLR. However, given the increased invasiveness and damage to the surrounding tissue area, it is proposed that it may be associated with increased pain. AIM: This review aims to gather all studies and literature that reported pain as an outcome when comparing SB versus DB ACLR. METHODS: Literature searching was conducted across seven search engines for studies reporting pain as an outcome and comparing SB versus DB ACLR. RESULTS: Eight studies met the eligibility criteria and were included in the study. Overall, the studies show variable findings regarding pain in DB compared to SB ACLR, with the only statistically significant results from two studies indicating that DB ACLR is associated with more pain than SB ACLR. CONCLUSION: Based on the limited evidence available, no conclusions can be made regarding the pain experienced between people receiving either procedure. This constitutes a need for additional studies with increased follow-up time periods, larger sample size, and better study design. © 2021 Ludwig A. P. Pontoh, H. D.

Background Various methods have been described to close large meningomyelocele defects, but no technique has been proven superior to others. This study presents cases of meningomyelocele defect closure with a keystone-design perforator island flap. Methods A retrospective study was performed on 14 patients with meningomyelocele defects closed using various types of keystone flaps. Results The median age of the patients at surgery was 10.5 days (range, 1–369 days) and the average defect size was 22.5 cm2 (range, 7.1–55.0 cm2). The average operative time for defect closure was 89.6 minutes (range, 45–120 minutes). Type IV bilateral keystone flaps were used for four defects, type IV unilateral flaps for six defects, type IIA flaps for two defects, and type III flaps for two defects. Conclusions All the defects healed completely with no major complications. The keystonedesign perforator island flap is a reliable, easy, and fast technique to close large meningomyelocele defects. © 2021 The Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons. |

Introduction: Patients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) pose high morbidity and mortality risk thus needing fast and accurate diagnosis. Wells clinical prediction scores with D-dimer testing are traditionally used to rule out patients with low probability of DVT. However, D-dimer testing has a few limitations regarding its relatively low specificity. Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), a marker of inflammation, was found to increase in DVT. Hence, we aimed to evaluate the role of NLR for DVT diagnosis. Methods: Data were collected from medical records of patients with suspected DVT at Cipto Mangunkusumo National General Hospital during January-December 2014. Diagnosis of DVT was conducted using lower limb ultrasonography. Diagnostic values for NLR, D-dimer, and NLR + D-dimer were determined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis to obtain area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, and positive predictive values. Sensitivity and specificity analyses of NLR and D-dimer were also conducted based on Wells score and divided into groups of low and high probability of DVT. Results: The AUC values for NLR, D-dimer, and NLR + D-dimer were 72.6%, 70.4%, and 76.1%, respectively. The optimal cut-off value determined for NLR was 5.12 with sensitivity of 67.7%, specificity of 67.9%, PPV of 68.85%, and NPV of 64.91% in differentiating subjects with and without DVT. This study also found that D-dimer had sensitivity of 69.4%, specificity of 71.4%, PPV of 72.88%, and NPV of 67.8%. Meanwhile, the NLR + D-dimer combination had sensitivity of 66.1% and specificity of 72.6%. Multivariate analysis showed that NLR (OR: 2.636; 95% CI: 1.144-6.076; p: 0.023) and D-dimer (OR: 4.175; 95% CI: 1.810-9.633; p: 0.001) were associated with DVT. Conclusion: NLR value has wider AUC than D-Dimer and is relatively easier to obtain and does not require specific assay, thus enabling rapid evaluation of symptomatic patients suspected of having DVT. Adding NLR to D-dimer increased AUC to detect DVT. Therefore, NLR could serve as a complementary diagnostic tool for D-dimer to exclude DVT, especially in low clinical probability patients. © 2021 Rinaldi et al. |

Introduction: Iron overload is a common feature of thalassemia intermedia due to regular blood transfusion and increased gastrointestinal iron absorption. Early detection and adequate iron chelator can decrease morbidity and mortality from iron overload. Liver iron concentration (LIC) by MRI T2* is the best non-invasive way to measure body iron stores. However, this method is expensive and not available nationwide in Indonesia. The aim of this study was to identify liver iron overload and correlation of transferrin saturation, serum ferritin, liver MRI T2* and LIC with transient liver elastography in adult thalassemia intermedia patients. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study of 45 patients with thalassemia intermedia with blood transfusion and with and without iron chelator therapy. The study was conducted at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital from August through October 2016. We performed measurements of transferrin saturation, serum ferritin level, transient liver elastography and liver MRI T2*. Pearson and Spearman correlation tests were used to evaluate the correlation between transient liver elastography with transferrin saturation, serum ferritin, liver MRI T2*and LIC. Results and Discussion: This study showed that 64.4% of study subjects are β-Hb E thalassemia intermedia. Furthermore, 84.4% of study subjects have regular transfusion. Based on liver MRI T2*all subjects suffered from liver iron overload, 48.9% had severe degree. Median value of liver MRI T2* was 1.6 ms. Mean serum ferritin was 2831 ng/mL, with median transferrin saturation of 66%. Mean of LIC corresponding to liver MRI T2* and mean liver stiffness measurement was 15.36±7.37 mg Fe/gr dry weight and 7.7±3.8 kPa, respectively. Liver stiffness correlated with serum ferritin (r=0.651; p=0.000), liver MRI T2* (r=−0.357; p=0.016), and LIC (r=0.433; p=0.003). No correlation was found between liver elastography and transferrin saturation (r=0.204; p=0.178). Conclusion: Serum ferritin, liver MRI T2*and LIC correlated with liver elastography. No correlation was found between transferrin saturation and liver elastography. © 2021 Atmakusuma and Lubis. |

Aims: The use of non-invasive and easily available assessment tools such as the ADA diabetes risk test is recommended for diabetes screening among general population. This study aims to assess the validity of the ADA diabetes risk test in screening for screening hyperglycemia in Indonesian population. Methods: This cross-sectional study conducted at primary health care in Cibeber sub district at Cilegon city, Banten province, Indonesia. Subjects were aged ≥45 years old without a prior diagnosis of diabetes were recruited consecutively. The risk of hyperglycemia was measured using the ADA Diabetes Risk Test. Random capillary blood glucose (RcBG) with a cut-off value >140 mg/dL used as a comparison. Results: From a total of 134 subjects, 23.13% of subjects (n = 31) had hyperglycemia. The ADA Diabetes Risk Test gave an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.71 (95% CI: 0.60-0.81) with an optimal cut-off of value ≥5. The sensitivity of the ADA diabetes risk test in diagnosing hyperglycemia was 68% with a false-negative rate (FNR) of 32.26%. Meanwhile, at a cut-off value ≥4, the sensitivity of the ADA Diabetes Risk Test was 93% with an FNR of 9.7%. Conclusion: ADA diabetes risk test provides a valuable result as a diabetes screening tool in the Indonesian population, thus promotes intervention strategies for population known to be at risk © The Author(s) 2021. |
