Article Synopsis
  • Identifying inflammation and lung damage markers is vital for lowering the risks associated with COVID-19, and this study assesses the validity of these markers and their relationship with disease severity.
  • Conducted at Airlangga University Hospital in Indonesia from March to August 2021, the study involved 76 patients and evaluated infection severity using ACE2 levels and blood counts, while lung damage was assessed through various biomarkers.
  • Results showed significant correlations between the severity of COVID-19 and lung damage indicators, with ACE2, IL-6, and blood count variables being key in measuring severity and KL-6, MMP-9, and TIMP-1 being crucial for assessing lung damage.

Diphallia, also known as penile duplication, represents a highly unusual congenital abnormality of sex development, occurring in 1 in every 5 million to 1 in thirty million live births. Wecker, in Bologna, Italy, noted the first instance of diphallia in 1609. Meanwhile, no sufficient report has meticulously described the incidence in Indonesia.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the relationship between Krebs von den Lungen-6 (KL-6) levels, blood gas analysis (BGA) parameters, and Brixia scores in adult COVID-19 patients to assess severity and mortality.
  • Conducted in a hospital in Indonesia, the research included 55 COVID-19 patients, finding no significant differences in KL-6 levels between severe and non-severe cases, but notable correlations with other health indicators.
  • Results indicate that KL-6, along with BGA and Brixia scores, can serve as effective markers for determining the severity and mortality of COVID-19, suggesting KL-6's potential role in clinical assessments.

Context: The age group at the most high risk for mortality due to SARS-CoV-2 infection was the elderly.

Aims: This study aims to analyze markers that can predict the severity and mortality of elderly COVID-19 patients.

Settings And Design: This study used a cohort retrospective design.

Ossifying fibroma is a benign fibro-osseous lesion arising from the periodontal ligament cells. The lesion may progressively enlarge with the mass affecting the mandible or maxilla, resulting in facial deformities and tooth displacement despite its benign nature. Here, we presented a case of an 18-year-old female with ossifying fibroma in the maxilla extending to the maxillary sinus, infraorbital area, and skull base, resulting in considerable facial asymmetry.

Chest X-ray images are a valuable tool for accurately and efficiently diagnosing Covid-19 with the assistance of computer technology. These images enable the detection of diseases in internal organs, particularly the lungs, by providing crucial information about the pathological state of the lungs and other internal organs and tissues. Segmentation plays an essential role in the earliest stages of disease detection through computer-assisted analysis of medical images.

An automated diagnosis system is crucial for helping radiologists identify brain abnormalities efficiently. The convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm of deep learning has the advantage of automated feature extraction beneficial for an automated diagnosis system. However, several challenges in the CNN-based classifiers of medical images, such as a lack of labeled data and class imbalance problems, can significantly hinder the performance.

It is well-recognized that tuberculosis (TB) can mimic several clinical diseases, particularly cancer. On several occasions, lung TB can be misdiagnosed as cancer, particularly in developed countries with a rare case of TB and high incidence of lung cancer, and vice versa- in which Indonesia, with a high incidence of TB, lung cancer may be mistakenly identified as TB, delaying the initiation of definitive therapy and causing unnecessary diagnostic and treatment procedures. We reported a 59-year-old male who complained of right upper chest pain, accompanied by chronic cough and weight loss, with a history of 6-month treatment with a TB regimen without resolution of his symptoms.

Pentalogy of Cantrell is a rare syndrome of anomalous malformation. In the present case, the syndrome was initially diagnosed as a complete pentad, including a supra-umbilical abdominal wall defect, a sternal defect, pericardial defects, an anterior diaphragmatic defect, and heart malformation. Diagnosis required several imaging modalities, including computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Aim: To prove that VIM line technique created by using a mathematical model, can be used to identify the location of the ventral intermediate nucleus of the thalamus (VIM) MATERIAL and METHODS: Eleven patients with Parkinson?s disease (PD) were assessed. To determine the VIM location, 3-T magnetic resonance imaging and stereotactic protocol 128-slice computed tomography were used. The VIM line technique was performed by drawing a line from the end-point of the right external globus pallidus to that of the left external globus pallidus in the intercommissural plane.

Available data suggest that case fatality rate of COVID-19 patients in Surabaya is higher than global cases. Thus, it is important to identify risk factors to prevent the mortality. This study aimed to assess the factors associated with hospital mortality of COVID-19 patients, and develop a prediction score based on these findings.

Introduction: The ventral intermediate (Vim) nucleus of the thalamus is difficult to identify even with 3 T magnetic resonance imaging. Stereotactic Vim thalamotomy is a usual procedure to control Parkinson tremor. Successful relieving of the tremor depends on the accuracy of defining the Vim location.
