    Objective: To reduce the risk of varicoses in primigravida by wearing elastic stockings with mechanical compression. Method: A prospective study was performed in a randomized single blinded trial with analysis of variance and repeated measures. The study was done at The Obstetrics and Gynecology Department Immanuel Hospital Bandung, with subjects obtained from the Obstetrics outpatient clinic during the period of May 2008 to March 2009. This study consisted of a population of 66 primigravidas randomly allocated in to 2 groups, 34 women in control group and 32 women in study group. Women in the study group were instructed to wear elastic stockings, while the control group was not. Measurements of veins dilatation were carried out using a Color Duplex Ultrasound. Results: The 12 week examination didn’t show any significant change on left femoral veins diameters in both groups. Examination at 34 weeks gestational age showed significant changes on left femoral veins in study group and control group (subsequently 0,83 ± 0,07 cm and 1,02 ± 0,35 cm). It also happened on examination at 2 weeks post-partum. The incidence of reflux was found only in the study group at sapheno-femoral junction in 6 of 34 women. Conclusion: Mechanical compression provide protective effect from the development of varicoses shown by the reduced incidence in developing reflux in blood flow in saphenous-femoral junction, in addition to minimal dilatation of the lower limbs and pelvic veins.

    Objective: To measure and correlate bet-ween elastin expression and elastic fibre thickness in the uterosacral ligaments of women with uterine prolapse. Method: This analytic with cross sectional study was done in January - March 2011. Specimens were obtained from the parafin block of uterosacral ligaments of women having uterine prolapse (prolapse group, n = 16) and the same location in patients with no prolapse having simple hysterectomy, radical hysterectomy or staging laparotomy (control group, n = 16) who came to Dr. Hasan Sadikin hospital and its network. The percentage of elastin positive tissue and elastic fibre thickness were measured by immunohistochemistry from random field readings per sample. The examiner was unaware of sample identity and the patients’ clinical history. Result: The risk factors (age, parity and vaginal delivery) were compared between the control and prolapse groups, and there were no difference of body mass index between the groups. Immunohistochemical staining and morphometric analysis indicated there were significant different beween elastin expression in the prolapse group compare with the control group (p < 0.001). The mean thickness of elastic fibres was 0.938 μm in the group with uterine prolapse and 2.244 μm in the control groups (p = 0.02). Elastin expression was associated with elastic fiber thickness (r = 0.589 and p = 0.016). Conclusion: In this cross-sectional study investigating elastin changes in women with prolapse, there was correlation between elastin expression and elastic fiber thickness in uterosacral ligament of women with uterine prolapse.

    Objective: To identify the optimum dosage to lower H2O2 and to increase the highest ratio of Glutathione/Glutathione dioxide in the media of eclampsia HUVEC’s model with the administration of NAC, Vitamin C, and Vitamin E. Method: We compare the concentration of H2O2 and ratio of glutathione (GSH) glutathione dioxide (GSSG) in eclampsia HUVEC’s model (as control group), and administration of three different dose of N-Acetyl Cystein (NAC), vitamin C, vitamin E and combination of them. Result: The addition of NAC, vitamin C and vitamin E to eclampsia HUVEC’s model can reduce the H2O2 level and increase GSH/GSSG ratio (p < 0.05). The optimal dose for NAC administration is 2 μM, while greater dose hamper the result. Combination of three antioxidants showed the best result compare to single antioxidant. Conclusion: The lowest level of H2O2 and the highest ratio of GSH/GSSG is achieved with the administration of the combination of NAC 2 μM, Vitamin C 100 μM and Vitamin E 100 μM.

    Get PDF
    Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between decreased E-Cadherin and β1-integrin expression in resectable endometrial cancer with the depth of myometrial invasion and pelvic lymph node metastasis. Method: This was a cross sectional study, we used immunohistochemistry examination on E-Cadherin and β1-integrin expression in resectable endometrial cancer patients who had surgery in 1997 to 2006 in Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital and searched the correlation with the depth of myometrial invasion and pelvic lymph node metastasis. Result: The prevalence of endometrial cancer from 1997 to 2006 in Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital was 7.0 in a year. Out of 64 patients with endometrial cancer only 36 paraffin block could be found and immunostaining on E-Cadherin and β1-integrin was done in 30 samples. Decreased E-Cadherin and β1-integrin expression was associated with the depth of myometrial invasion, pelvic lymph node metastasis, lymph ovascular space involvement and degree of differentiation in resectable endometrial cancer patients. Conclusion: Decreased E-Cadherin and β1-integrin expression was associated with the depth of myometrial invasion and pelvic lymph nodes metastasis.

    Get PDF
    Objectives: To assess neonatal haemoglobin and haematocrit level during delayed cord clamping on normal delivery. Methods: This was a randomised control trial with simple random sampling method. During March until June 2011, we collected blood sample from venous umbilical cord on newborn baby. Twenty babies were assigned to the first group, of which the clamping of the umbilical was delayed until 2 minutes (DCC). The other 20 babies were assigned to the second group, of which the clamping of the umbilical was performed as early as 10 second (ECC) after delivery of the whole body of the baby. The haemoglobin and haematocrit level was noted and compared between two groups using Mann-Whitney U test in SPSS 16 for Windows. Result: There were no difference on maternal characteristic between two groups, except for the maternal education and maternal economic status. The median neonatal haemoglobin level on DCC group was 15.77 g/dl and on ECC group was 14.36 g/dl. There was statically significant higher neonatal haemoglobin level on DCC group (p=0.005). The median neonatal haematocrit level was 44.1% on DCC group and was 43.35% on ECC group. There was no difference on neonatal haematocrit level between two groups (p=0.652). Conclusion: Delaying cord clamping until at least two minutes after delivery could increase haemoglobin level on newborn babies. Therefore, this method was suggested for every delivery in area where there is a risk of anemia in neonates such as Indonesia.

    Objective: To evaluate and determine the toxicity and outcomes in patient receiving radiation (RT) alone versus concurrent chemoradiation (CRT) using cisplatin for locoregional advanced cervical cancer in Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital (RSCM). Methods: Simple randomized single-blind clinical study, done during the period of November 2010-April 2011, in 32 patients with locoregional advanced cervical cancer (16 were treated RT alone and the rest is treated with CRT). Teletherapy was administrated using 60Co Gamma Rays 1.3 MV and photon beam linear accelerator 4-10 MV. The radiation was administered as much as 2.0 Gy per fraction daily for 5 days/week, for the total of 25 fractions. Brachytherapy was performed using HDR after-loading method, with Microselectron plane radiation source 129I, as much as 3x7 Gy doses to point A. CRT using cisplatin 30 mg/m2 were given for 5 series during the radiotherapy course. The toxicity assessments were carried out each week, up until 3 months after the therapy was deemed completed based on the RTOG and ECOG criteria. Results: We acquired 100% complete response in both the CRT and RT groups. In the CRT group, we found acute gastrointestinal toxicity grade 3 (18.75%) and grade 2 (43.75%); acute genitourinary toxicity grade 3 (25%), grade 2 (31.25%); and acute hematological toxicity grade 3 (12.50%) and grade 2 (25%). It is contrasted with the RT group, in which we did not found any cases of acute gastrointestinal toxicity, genitourinary or acute hematologic toxicity. The overall time treatment (OTT) of 56-58 days in CRT and RT group were 25% vs. 81.25% respectively, and the OTT of 59-70 days in CRT and RT group were 75% vs. 18.75%, respectively. Conclusion:The response to CRT and RT for locoregional advanced cervical cancer was not different in 3 month evaluation. Acute gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and hematologic toxicities found in CRT were higher than in RT (p=0.000; p=0.000; p=0.002).
