Pediatric Type 1 Diabetes Care in Indonesia: A Review of Current Challenges and Practice.

Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) is a chronic condition requiring lifelong management that affects a large number of children and adolescents globally. While diabetes care has improved over the years, low-middle income countries (LMIC) like Indonesia still struggle to achieve optimal diabetes care due to limited access to healthcare professionals, insulin, diabetes technologies, and self-monitoring blood glucose (SMBG) devices. Data from the Indonesian Pediatric Society registry has reflected a stark increase in the number of children with T1DM, with the current prevalence significantly concentrated on Java Island and a noticeable underreporting in rural regions.

Volatile Organic Compounds Produced by Human Pathogenic Fungi Are Toxic to .

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are low molecular mass organic compounds that easily evaporate at room temperature. Fungi produce diverse mixtures of VOCs, some of which may contribute to "sick building syndrome," and which have been shown to be toxigenic in a variety of laboratory bioassays. We hypothesized that VOCs from medically important fungi might be similarly toxigenic and tested strains of , and in a eclosion bioassay.

Students' Perceptions of Educational Climate in a Spanish School of Dentistry Using the Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure: A Longitudinal Study.

Background: Educational Climate (EC) may determine teacher and student behaviour. Our aim was to evaluate EC longitudinally in a period of 'curricular transition' from traditional (teacher-centred learning) to Bologna curricula (interactive student-centred learning).

Methods: The 'Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure' (DREEM) questionnaire was completed by 397 students from a Spanish School of Dentistry.

Happy hypoxia in critical COVID-19 patient: A case report in Tangerang, Indonesia.

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a public health emergency of international concern with increasing cases globally, including in Indonesia. COVID-19 clinical manifestations ranging from asymptomatic, acute respiratory illness, respiratory failure that necessitate mechanical ventilation and support in an intensive care unit (ICU), to multiple organ dysfunction syndromes. Some patients might present with happy hypoxia, a condition where patients have low oxygen saturations (S  < 90%), but are not in significant respiratory distress and often appear clinically well, which is confusing for the doctors and treatment strategies.

Multi-year prevalence and macrolide resistance of Mycoplasma genitalium in clinical samples from a southern Italian hospital.

The use of azithromycin for the treatment of Mycoplasma genitalium infections has led to resistance to macrolides. From July 2014 to July 2020, 7150 samples were analysed for the detection of sexually transmitted infections at the Policlinico of Bari. A total of 67/7150 samples (0.

Is sonoelastography a helpful method of evaluation to diagnose Sjögren's syndrome?

Objective: A new sonoelastography technique - virtual touch tissue quantification of acoustic radiation force impulses (ARFI) - offers a promising method for measuring tissue rigidity. The aim of this study was to assess the usefulness of ARFI for diagnosing Sjögren's syndrome (SS).

Methods: This transversal prospective study included 41 patients with SS according to American-European Consensus Group (AECG) criteria, and a control group without symptoms.

PREVALENCE OF ANTI-CYCLIC CITRULLINATED PEPTIDE ANTIBODIES IN PATIENTS CLASSIFIED AS RHEUMATOID AND UNDIFFERENTIATED ARTHRITIS AT KENYATTA NATIONAL HOSPITAL.

Background: Rheumatoid arthritis(RA) is a debilitating condition.Early diagnosis of RA can be difficult as the disease may initially be indistinguishable from Undifferentiated arthritis(UA). American College of Rheumatology criteria(ACR)is not suitable for early diagnosis as its characteristics are fulfilled when bone damage has already taken place.

The presence of motile Aeromonas spp. in natural mineral water (NMW) and drinking well water in the area of Lecce (Italy) was investigated. Aeromonas spp.

[Urinary infections: observations on the frequency of microbial isolation at the hospital environment and its surroundings].

Numerous studies have been carried out to specify bacterial frequencies in the urinary tract infections. In such researches the prevalence of Gram negative bacterial species has generally emerged, the most part of these ones would be Enterobatteriaceae (and among them E. coli has a special prominent position); on the other hand several Authors have often found, among other bacterial groups (Gram positive bacteria, Pseudomonas etc.
