BACKGROUND: Women are often neglected in cardiovascular health prevention. Age at menarche (AAM) has been linked to cardiovascular (CVD) disease in women and is potentially identified as one of the significant CVD risk factor. However, there is still limited comprehensive evidence addressing this issue. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate how early menarche affects the outcome of all-cause mortality, CVD mortality, total cardiovascular disease event, stroke (ischemic, hemorrhagic, and total stroke), and coronary heart disease (CHD). METHOD: The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, Embase, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar databases were searched from March 2013 to March 2023 for cohorts investigating the effect of early onset of menarche on CVD events with a minimum follow-up period of 5 years. Studies that observed specific population and/or included women with a history of CVD at baseline were excluded. The Newcastle-Ottawa scale was used for risk of bias assessment for each cohort included. The data were presented as dichotomous measure using risk ratios. I2 statistics were utilized to evaluate the heterogeneity of presented data. RESULTS: Thirteen cohorts included 18 626 799 female patients with ages ranging from 43 to 62.6 years. These reported 6 estimates each for CHD (5 483 298 patients) and all-cause mortality (1 595 878 patients), 5 estimates each for total stroke (2 941 321 patients) and CVD mortality (1 706 742 patients), 4 estimates each for total CVD events (3 988 311 patients) and ischemic stroke (2 434 580 patients), and 1 estimate for hemorrhagic stroke (66 104 patients). Our study found that events of CHD were significantly lower in early menarche (RR 0.57; 95% CI 0.41-0.78; P <.00001), as well as total stroke (RR 0.51; 95% CI 0.35-0.73; P =.0003), CVD mortality (RR 0.47; 95% CI 0.22-0.98; P =.04), total CVD events (RR 0.44; 95% CI 0.25-0.76; P =.003), ischemic stroke (RR 0.31; 95% CI 0.15-0.61; P <.0008), and hemorrhagic stroke (RR 0.12; 95% CI 0.07-0.20; P <.00001); and insignificantly higher in all-cause mortality (RR 0.90, 95% CI 0.76-1.06, P =.20). CONCLUSION: In our study, cardiovascular events are lower in women with early menarche; hence, the later age of menarche is a potential risk factor to be considered when assessing CVD risk in a patient. However, our sample characteristics were heterogenous, and we did not consider other female hormonal factors that might potentially contribute to the CVD outcomes observed; thus, further studies are needed to clarify. |

Candida auris is an emerging pathogenic yeast that has been categorized as a global public health threat and a critical priority among fungal pathogens. Despite this, the immune response against C. auris infection is still not well understood. Hosts fight Candida infections through the immune system that recognizes pathogen-associated molecular patterns such as β-glucan, mannan, and chitin on the fungal cell wall. In this study, levels of β-glucan and mannan exposures in C. auris grown under different physiologically relevant stimuli were quantified by flow cytometry-based analysis. Lactate, hypoxia, and sublethal concentration of fluconazole trigger a decrease in surface β-glucan while low pH triggers an increase in β-glucan. There is no inverse pattern between exposure levels of β-glucan and mannan in the cell wall architecture among the three clades. To determine the effect of cell wall remodeling on the immune response, a phagocytosis assay was performed, followed by quantification of released cytokines by ELISA. Lactate-induced decrease in β-glucan leads to reduced uptake of C. auris by PMA-differentiated THP-1 and RAW 264.7 macrophages. Furthermore, reduced production of CCL3/MIP-1⍺ but not TNF-⍺ and IL-10 were observed. An in vivo infection analysis using silkworms reveals that a reduction in β-glucan triggers an increase in the virulence of C. auris. This study demonstrates that β-glucan alteration occurs in C. auris and serves as an escape mechanism from immune cells leading to increased virulence. © The Author(s) 2024. |

Background: The emergence of insecticide resistance and outdoor transmission in malaria-endemic areas underlines the urgent need to develop innovative tools, such as spatial repellents (SR), that may circumvent this residual transmission. With limited options for effective insecticides, regular resistance monitoring is warranted for selecting and using appropriate tools. This study evaluates the pyrethroid knockdown resistance (kdr) allele before and after implementing a transfluthrin-based spatial repellent (SR) intervention in placebo-treated clusters. Methods: This study looks at the frequency distribution of the kdr allele in Sumba Island from June 2015 to August 2018. Insecticide susceptibility tests were carried out on female Anopheles sp. aged 3–5 days against permethrin 21.5 μg/ml, deltamethrin 12.5 μg/ml, and transfluthrin 10 μg/ml using CDC bottle assay. PCR sequencing of representative samples from adult mosquito collections and insecticide tests revealed the presence of kdr mutations (L1014F and L1014S) in the VGSC gene. Results: A total of 12 Anopheles species, Anopheles tesselatus, Anopheles. aconitus, Anopheles barbirostris, Anopheles kochi, Anopheles annularis, Anopheles maculatus, Anopheles sundaicus, Anopheles flavirostris, Anopheles balabacensis, Anopheles indefinitus, Anopheles subpictus, and Anopheles vagus were analysed. Anopheles vagus and An. sundaicus predominated in the larval populations. Susceptibility assays for all insecticides identified fully susceptible phenotypes in all species examined. Anopheles increasing frequency of kdr mutant alleles during the 3 year SR deployment was observed in both SR-treated and placebo areas, a statistically significant increase occurred in each arm. However, it is unclear how significant SR is in causing the increase in mutant alleles. The L1014S, knockdown resistance east type (kdr-e) allele was detected for the first time among the mosquito samples in this study. The L1014F, knockdown resistance west type (kdr-w) allele and heteroduplex form (wild-type—mutant) were found in almost all Anopheles species examined, including An. vagus, An. aconitus, An. subpictus, An. tesselatus, An. annularis, An. flavirostris and An. sundaicus. Conclusion: The presence of fully susceptible phenotypes over time, along with an increase in the frequency distribution of the L1014F/S mutations post-intervention, suggest drivers of resistance external to the study, including pyrethroid use in agriculture and long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs). However, this does not negate possible SR impacts that support resistance. More studies that enable the comprehension of possible SR-based drivers of resistance in mosquitoes need to be conducted. © 2024, The Author(s). |

Background: Hyperandrogenism is frequently found in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and contributes to physical manifestations like hirsutism and obesity, along with infertility. This condition can result in anxiety, depression, and body image disorders, potentially leading to sexual dysfunction. The objective of this investigation was to assess the correlation among hirsutism, anthropometric characteristics, sexual dysfunction, and anxiety levels among infertile Indonesian women diagnosed with PCOS. Methods: From December 2021 to December 2022, a cross-sectional study was undertaken involving 71 infertile women diagnosed with PCOS at Yasmin Clinic, Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital in Jakarta, Indonesia. Hirsutism was assessed using the modified Ferriman-Gallwey (mFG) score; the anthropometric profile was assessed using BMI and waist-to-hip ratio. The assessment of sexual dysfunction was conducted using the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) questionnaire, while the evaluation of anxiety levels utilized the HAM-A questionnaires. Results: In this study, it was discovered that 53.3% of subjects experienced sexual dysfunction. However, there was no statistically significant relationship between hirsutism, anthropometric profile, and sexual dysfunction score in infertile women with PCOS (p > 0.05). Analysis of the overall FSFI domain score revealed that lubrication and satisfaction were lower in obese patients (p = 0.02 and p = 0.03), but this did not contribute to an overall sexual dysfunction score. Also, we found that subjects who experienced sexual dysfunction had a higher anxiety score (p < 0.005), with correlation analysis showing that Ferriman-Gallwey (FG) scores have a significant positive correlation with anxiety. Conclusion: There is no correlation between hirsutism, anthropometric profile, and sexual dysfunction in infertile Indonesian women diagnosed with PCOS. However, hirsutism could play a role in causing anxiety in Indonesian PCOS women. Additional investigation is required, as female sexual function is an intricate subject. © The Author(s) 2024. |

Background: Primary care provides an important context to engage adolescents and their families in healthy lifestyles with the goal of reducing future behaviour-related health problems. Developing a valid tool to assess health professionals’ skills in behavioural change counselling is integral to improving the quality of clinical care provided to adolescents in Indonesia. Methods: This work was nested within a project to develop a training program to enhance the behaviour-change counselling of adolescents and their parents by Indonesian primary care professionals. Initial item development was based on the content of the training module and the domain structure of the Behavioral Change Counselling Index (BECCI), a commonly used tool to assess counselling quality in healthcare settings. Expert panels were used to test content validity, while face validity was assessed by a group of trained psychologists. Inter-rater agreement was calculated prior to tests of construct validity and reliability, which involved psychologists rating 125 audio-taped counselling sessions between the health professional and adolescent patients, together with a parent. Results: An initial 13-item tool was developed using a 1–5 Likert scale. Validity and reliability testing resulted in the decision to use a 14-item tool with a 0–3 Likert scale. The scale was found to have a Cronbach’s α coefficient of 0.839 (internal consistency), and there was strong inter-rater agreement (0.931). Conclusion: The assessment tool known as the Adolescent Behavioural Change Counselling Assessment Tool, is a valid and reliable instrument to measure Indonesian health professionals’ behavioural-change counselling skills with adolescent patients. The tool provides an evaluation framework for future interventions that aim to improve health professionals’ skills in addressing adolescent behaviour-related health problems. © The Author(s) 2024. |

Objective: Twenty percent of all classical Hodgkin lymphoma (CHL) cases relapse and recur, especially in advanced stages with a high International Prognostic Score (IPS). Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) is a regulatory molecule that can inhibit the immune response and is related to tumor aggressiveness. This study aimed to determine the relationship between CTLA-4 expression in advanced-stage CHL and IPS, identifying it as a potential therapy target. Results: In advanced-stage CHL, the group with a high IPS exhibited significantly higher mean CTLA-4 expression compared to the group with a low IPS (p = 0.003).The group with Hb level < 10.5 g/dl, leukocyte count > 15,000/µL, lymphocyte count < 8%, albumin level < 4 g/dl, and stage 4 exhibited higher CTLA-4 expression than the other group, although only leukocyte count and stage showed statistical significance (p = 0.004 and p = 0.020). Mean CTLA-4 expression was 239.84 ± 76.36 for nodular sclerosis, 293.95 ± 147.94 for mixed cellularity, 271.4 ± 23.56 for lymphocyte depleted, and 225.2 for lymphocyte-rich subtypes. The results suggest that CTLA-4 expression is associated with adverse prognostic factors in the IPS for advanced-stage CHL, supporting the notion that immune checkpoints play a role in cancer progression. © The Author(s) 2024. |

Background: Atherosclerosis is a progressive disease characterized by the build-up of lipids and connective tissue in the large arteries. Some patients experience chronic total occlusion (CTO). Inflammation plays a key role in the development and complications of atherosclerosis. Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a marker of systemic inflammation associated with the development of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We aimed to assess the relationship between NLR and CTO in ACS patients with ST elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) in Indonesia. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed with secondary data obtained from patient medical records at Cipto Mangunkusumo National Central Hospital, Jakarta. Inclusion criteria were patients with ACS and STEMI who underwent coronary angiography in 2015–2018. Results: A total of 98 patients were enrolled in the analysis. Most subjects with CTO were male, elderly (> 60), smoking, had no history of diabetes mellitus (DM) or hypertension, no family history of coronary heart disease (CHD), but had a history of ACS and had never consumed statin or antiplatelet medications. Bivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that male gender (PR = 1.820; 95%CI 0.871–3.805; p = 0.025) and smoking (PR = 1.781; 95%CI 1.028–3.086; p = 0.004) were significantly correlated with CTO. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve revealed that higher NLR (≥ 6.42) could predict a CTO diagnosis with positive predictive value (PPV) of 91%. Multivariate analysis revealed that NLR was correlated with an 11.2-fold increase in occurrence of CTO (95%CI 3.250-38.303; p < 0.001). Additionally, smoking was correlated with a 7-fold increase in CTO (95% CI 1.791–30.508; p = 0.006). Conclusion: NLR value of ≥ 6.42 is potentially useful as a marker of CTO in STEMI patients. In addition, smoking increases the risk of CTO in ACS/STEMI patients. © 2023, The Author(s). |

Multidrug-resistant tuberculous spondylitis is a global health issue, especially in developing nations, and non-specific symptoms lead to delay in identification, treatment, and potential disability in children. Radiology plays a crucial role in diagnosing tuberculous spondylitis, which in turn might lead to effective treatment, prevention of disability and improved patient outcomes. Our case involved a 20-month-old malnourished child presented with paraparesis, revealing a history of contact with parental multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. Multimodality radiological examinations, including conventional radiography, CT, and MRI revealed extensive disease of the spine with disc involvement, large paravertebral abscess, and kyphotic deformity which produced neurological deficits, necessitating both anti-tuberculosis regimen and surgical intervention. Radiological examinations have a pivotal role in diagnosing, evaluating and guiding timely management of multidrug-resistant tuberculous spondylitis. Prompt diagnosis of the condition is crucial in order to prevent potentially severe complications, which contribute significantly to morbidity. Our case demonstrated the importance of radiology in diagnosing extensive spine involvement of the disease causing neurological deficits. Furthermore, radiology also helps in managing tuberculous spondylitis to prevent future disability in a child patient of a developing country. This case highlights the crucial significance of radiological imaging in the diagnosis and management of pediatric tuberculous spondylitis in impoverished nations. The patient's complex medical history highlights the socioeconomic factors contributing to tuberculosis burden. Early and comprehensive radiological assessment, together with collaboration between radiologists and clinicians, is vital for timely intervention and improved outcomes in pediatric tuberculous spondylitis cases to prevent the impact of this debilitating disease on children. © 2024 |

Purposes: The objective of this study is to develop a versatile gene carrier based on lipopeptides capable of delivering genetic material into target cells with minimal cytotoxicity. Methods: Two lipopeptide molecules, palmitoyl-CKKHH and palmitoyl-CKKHH-YGRKKRRQRRR-PKKKRKV, were synthesized using solid phase peptide synthesis and evaluated as transfection agents. Physicochemical characterization of the lipopeptides included a DNA shift mobility assay, particle size measurement, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis. Cytotoxicity was assessed in CHO-K1 and HepG2 cells using the MTT assay, while transfection efficiency was determined by evaluating the expression of the green fluorescent protein-encoding gene. Results: Our findings demonstrate that the lipopeptides can bind, condense, and shield DNA from DNase degradation. The inclusion of the YGRKKRRQRRR sequence, a transcription trans activator, and the PKKKRKV sequence, a nuclear localization signal, imparts desirable properties. Lipopeptide-based TAT-NLS/DNA nanoparticles exhibited stability for up to 20 days when stored at 6–8 °C, displaying uniformity with a compact size of approximately 120 nm. Furthermore, the lipopeptides exhibited lower cytotoxicity compared to the poly-L-lysine. Transfection experiments revealed that protein expression mediated by the lipopeptide occurred at a charge ratio ranging from 4.0 to 8.0. Conclusion: These results indicate that the lipopeptide, composed of a palmitoyl alkyl chain and TAT and NLS sequences, can efficiently condense and protect DNA, form stable and uniform nanoparticles, and exhibit promising characteristics as a potential gene carrier with minimal cytotoxicity. © 2024 Elsevier B.V. |

Background: The long-term outcomes in pediatric patients with various extents of mandible defects have not been well-documented. Methods: A retrospective case series in which this study looked at pediatric patients under the age of 13 who had mandibular reconstruction with free fibular flap and had not received another operation in the previous 6 months. The eating, swallowing, speech function, and quality of life are evaluated with EORTC QLQ-H&N35 after the mandible growth spurt has occurred. Results: A total of 7 patients were included in this study with operation ages ranging from 6 years 1 month to 12 years 2 months. The etiology of malignant tumors was found in 2 patients and benign tumors in 5 patients. The mandibular defect distribution consists of 1 class Ic, 1 class II, 2 class IIc, 2 class III, and 1 class IVc. All patients reported no swallowing or speech difficulties. However, transient eating trouble was seen in 1 patient due to the extensive defect size that causes tooth loss. Only 1 patient received dental rehabilitation. The patients displayed an overall good quality of life with an average score of 2.857. Conclusions: Free fibular flap for mandibular reconstruction in children who have not reached their mandibular growth peak have a satisfying outcome, both in their function and quality of life. © 2024 Lippincott Williams and Wilkins.
