Fifteen Years of Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma in an Indonesian National Referral Hospital: Epidemiologic Trends and Diagnostic Challenges.

Purpose: The global burden of lymphoma is substantial because of the increase in its incidence in recent decades. However, disease characteristics vary across different geographical locations. Numerous immunohistochemistry markers and molecular studies are essential to determine lymphoma diagnosis and prognosis.

Comparison study of quantitative susceptibility mapping with GRAPPA and wave-CAIPI: reproducibility, consistency, and microbleeds detection.

Purpose: We compared quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) with wave-CAIPI 9 × (QSM_WC9 ×) with reference standard QSM with GRAPPA 2 × (QSM_G2 ×) in two MR scanners. We also compared detectability of microbleeds in both QSMs to demonstrate clinical feasibility of both QSMs.

Materials And Methods: This prospective study was approved by the institutional review board and written informed consent was obtained from each subject.

A Novel Diabetic Arthritic Model in Rats Induced by Streptozotocin, High-Fat Diet, and Complete Freund's Adjuvant.

Introduction: Ankle arthrodesis is one of the treatments of choice, particularly in late-stage and unstable diabetic Charcot arthropathy. Unfortunately, poor healing capacity might play a role in the high nonunion rate (10-40%). The advancement in regenerative medicine opens a new horizon for enhancing fusion after ankle arthrodesis in patients with poor healing capacity.

Feeding intolerance scoring system in very preterm and very low birth weight infants using clinical and ultrasound findings.

Very preterm infants are at a high risk of developing feeding intolerance; however, there are no widely accepted definitions of feeding intolerance. This study aimed to develop a scoring system for feeding intolerance in very preterm infants by combining clinical symptoms and ultrasonography (US) findings. This prospective cohort study included very preterm and/or very low birth weight infants.

Scalp microbiome of healthy women wearing hijab compared to those not wearing hijab: a cross-sectional study.

Use of hijab can influence the scalp's condition, including its microbiome. To date there has been no study comparing scalp microbiome in women wearing hijab to that in women not wearing hijab. This was a cross-sectional study conducted from August 2019 to April 2021.

Altered Resting-State Network in Adolescents with Problematic Internet Use.

Problematic internet use (PIU) is increasingly recognized as a mental health concern, particularly among adolescents. The resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) of the triple-network model has been described inconsistently in PIU. Using resting-state fMRI (rsFMRI) and hypothesizing a lower rsFC between default mode (DMN) and central executive networks (CEN) but a higher rsFC within the salience network (SN), this study scrutinized the neural substrates of PIU adolescents.

Ultrasonographic measurement of abdominal and gluteal-femoral fat thickness as a predictor for android/gynoid ratio.

Objective: To evaluate the use of ultrasonography (US) as an alternative to dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) to predict the percentage ratio of android/gynoid (A/G) fat mass.

Methods: This was a cross-sectional study. Twenty-eight participants included in the study underwent whole-body DXA examinations and the A/G ratio was calculated.

Expression of programmed cell death ligand-1 protein in germinal center B-cell-like and non-germinal center B-cell-like subtypes of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma worldwide. However, there is still limited information on the expression of programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1), a type 1 transmembrane protein of immunoglobulin B7/CD28 in the DLBCL subtypes. The present study aimed to identify the expression of PD-L1 in germinal center B-cell-like (GCB) subtype and non-germinal center B-cell-like (non-GCB) subtype of DLBCL.

Mucocutaneous mycoses in people living with human immunodeficiency virus in Indonesia.

Background: To date, integrated care for people living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLHIV) has improved. However, although the management of mucocutaneous mycosis cases has improved, disease progression might be different in immunocompromised patients, which leads to variable clinical manifestations.

Objectives: To describe the characteristics of mucocutaneous mycosis cases in the PLHIV population and its associated factors in Indonesia.

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus with Early Dry Skin Disorder: A Comparison Study Between Primary and Tertiary Care in Indonesia.

Background: The prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) in Indonesia has continued to increase over the years. Management of T2DM is challenging across clinical settings, including primary and tertiary care. Uncontrolled T2DM puts patients at risk of the development of T2DM complications, especially early-stage dry skin that is neglected by most of the patients.

Hemosiderin deposition evaluation in hemophilic ankle joints: association between US finding and gradient-recalled echo MR imaging sequence.

Background: Repeated bleeding in hemophilic arthropathy (HA) may result in severe degenerative changes and joint destruction. The gradient-recalled echo (GRE) sequence MR is proved to be the best method to detect hemosiderin deposition. However, MR is not widely available in developing countries, including Indonesia.

Tuberculous septic arthritis of the hip with large abscess formation mimicking soft tissue tumors: A case report.

Background: Tuberculous septic arthritis is an infection that occurs inside the joint or synovial fluid and joint tissues caused by . It may show wide variability of clinical symptoms and imaging appearance, ranging from asymptomatic with a normal radiographic examination to severe joint pain along with joint destruction, osteomyelitis, and abscess formation. This article presents radiographic and MR imaging appearance from a case of tuberculous septic arthritis with large abscess formation mimicking soft tissue tumor.

Correlation between Hemophilia Early Arthropathy Detection with Ultrasound (HEAD-US) score and Hemophilia Joint Health Score (HJHS) in patients with hemophilic arthropathy.

Background: Hemophilic arthropathy, a condition manifested as joint destruction due to spontaneous joint bleeding, is one complication of hemophiliac patients. Early detection and intervention may improve the outcome, in which ultrasonography can be an ideal modality with the introduction of HEAD-US (Hemophilia Early Arthropathy Detection with Ultrasound) protocol. Studies have shown US benefit in hemophiliac patients, including its potential as an alternative for the Hemophiliac Joint Health Score (HJHS) system.

Non-contrast versus contrast-enhanced MR in the diagnosis of spondylitis: A quantitative concordance-analysis.

Introduction: : Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging using gadolinium contrast media is an essential imaging modality in diagnosing spondylitis. However, gadolinium contrast is not widely available in Indonesia and relatively expensive. Many MR studies in Indonesia are performed without contrast administration.

Computed tomography evaluation of fat infiltration ratio of the multifidus muscle in chronic low back pain patients.

Background And Objectives: Fat infiltration of multifidus muscle is an important parameter to assess the efficacy of spinal stabilization training in chronic low back pain (LBP) patients. As a CT scan shows a specific attenuation value for fat, it can be used as a ratio to evaluate fat infiltration of the muscle relative to its cross-sectional area. This study aims to compare the fat infiltration ratio of multifidus muscle between subjects with and without chronic LBP in Indonesia.
