Intractable chronic wounds to standard care of diabetic foot raise the question of whether other factors intervene in disease development. We report a case of a 54-year-old male patient who came to Sardjito General Hospital with leg pain and previous history of multiple debridement and amputation for DFU referred from a remote hospital yet no improvement was evident in the surrounding lesion following treatment.

Assessment of 28-day survival of patients with sepsis based on vitamin D status: a hospital-based prospective cohort study in Indonesia.

Introduction: sepsis is a potentially life-threatening condition caused by the body´s response to an infection.

Rare combination of chronic primary adrenal insufficiency, subclinical hypothyroidism, and bicytopenia as features of systemic lupus erythematosus in a young man: A case report.

Adrenal insufficiency in systemic lupus erythematosus is rarely detected, especially in male patients. Nevertheless, such coexistence can occur, and screening for systemic lupus erythematosus should be considered in primary adrenal insufficiency with symptoms of systemic multiorgan involvement. We report a 22-year-old Asian man, initially diagnosed with bicytopenia, developed severe unintentional weight loss, skin and mucosal hyperpigmentation, along with persistent fatigue.

Progressive Worsening of Neurological Manifestations in HIV-Associated Opportunistic Central Nervous System (CNS) Infection Patients After COVID-19 Vaccinations: A Possible Co-Incidence Causality.

BACKGROUND The iceberg phenomenon (in which the most of a problem is invisible) of people living with HIV/AIDS, particularly those with unknown HIV status, has been epidemiologically challenging. Central nervous system (CNS) opportunistic infections in patients with HIV/AIDS are one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in people living with HIV/AIDS. There are currently limited data on the immunogenicity, safety, and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines in people living with HIV/AIDS with its associated opportunistic CNS infections as well as those without antiretroviral treatment.

GB virus C infection in Indonesian HIV-positive patients.

GB virus C (GBV-C), a human virus of the Flaviviridae family that is structurally and epidemiologically closest to hepatitis C virus (HCV), has been reported to confer beneficial outcomes in HIV-positive patients. However, the prevalence of GBV-C in HIV-positive individuals in Indonesia is unknown. Since GBV-C is more prevalent in anti-HCV positive patients than in anti-HCV negative subjects, transmission of GBV-C and HCV could be by the same method.
