Journal ID : AMJ-27-12-2022-10977; Author : Tengku Winda Ardini, Ayub Basaldi Nugraha Raharja, Yuke Sarastri, Ali Nafiah Nasution,
Abstract : Perimembranous Ventricular Septal Defect (PmVSD) is one of the most common type of congenital heart abnormality. Transcatheter closure of PmVSD is an emerging alternative modality to surgical closure, but has high radiation exposure. We reported a transcatheter VSD closure in PmVSD’s patient through femoral venous route under the guidance of Trans-Esophageal Echocardiography (TEE), without fluoroscopy. The catheter’s delivery and device deployment guided by long axis and short axis TEE’s view. The procedure was success without any complication. Transcatheter device closure of VSD under TEE guidance without fluoroscopy is effective and safe.

Abstract : Diabetes mellitus and its complications like peripheral neuropathy are priority non-communicable diseases that the number of patients increased over time. This condition will result in a progressive decrease in the life quality of patients. Controlled risk factors to decrease quality of life needs to be done, one of the most important risk factors is a lifestyle. This study was to create a prediction model of quality of life-based on lifestyle in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with peripheral neuropathy. The study was cross-sectional. 210 patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 were applied in this study using purposive sampling. Data were carried out using a self-developed questionnaire by the research team and which met the existing validity and reliability requirements. Data were analyzed using SEM PLS. Variables that have a direct influence on the quality of life are social interaction (r=0.563; T=10.591; p=0.0001; f²=0.544), self-care (r=0.236; T=4.769; p=0.0001; f²=0.093) and eating patterns (r=0.236; T=3.947;p=0.0001; f²= 0.095). Variables that have an indirect effect on the quality of life are physical activity variables (r= -0.063; T= 2.981; p= 0.003; f²=0.074) and sleep pattern variables (r= 0.058; T= 2.851; p= 0.005; f²= 0.063). The R square value of the predictor variable with a moderate category of quality of life (R square = 0.496). All the variables in this prediction model have a Q-square value of more than 0.02 so it can be stated that all the variables that make up the model are declared good. This predictive model is feasible in explaining the influence between variables (SRMR value = 0.99). A prediction model was formed consisting of 5 predictor variables, namely social interaction, self-care, eating patterns, physical activity, and sleep patterns.

Journal ID : AMJ-26-12-2022-10970; Author : Karmenita Christina, Indri Ngesti Rahayu, Ni Komang Sri Dewi Untari, Intan Komalasari,
Abstract : A new pandemic afflicts the entire world. The highly contagious severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus originated in Wuhan, China in late 2019 and rapidly spread across the entire globe. Patients with coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) disease present with a wide array of symptoms, ranging from mild complaints such as low oxygen levels to life threatening pulmonary and cardiac complications. New therapeutic interventions to treat COVID-19 symptoms include hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). HBOT involves breathing under 100% oxygen pressure to increase plasma and tissue oxygen levels. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of HBOT on oxygen saturation of COVID-19 patients. This study uses a descriptive research design with literature review from at least 10 national journal articles indexed by SINTA and international journals indexed by Scimago with 2016 to 2021 limitations. Based on 11 international journals indexed by Scimago, HBOT allows a significant increase of the oxygen saturation of COVID-19 patients. HBOT has the effect of correcting tissue hypoxia, chronic hypoxemia and helps in other symptoms of COVID-19 resulting in improvement in COVID-19 patients who are given HBOT.

Low Glasgow Coma Scale Score as a Risk Factor of Death in Children with Acute Encephalitis Syndrome
Journal ID : AMJ-26-12-2022-10969; Author : I Gusti Ngurah Made Suwarba, Kirana Dyah Larasati Budhiarta, I Ketut Suarta, I Gusti Ayu Trisna Windiani, Ida Bagus Subanada, I Made Gede Dwi Lingga Utama,
Abstract : Acute encephalitis syndrome (AES) is a global health problem. Globally, the incidence found in 10.5 per 100.000. In a study in India, the most common age for AES cases was 1 to 7 years. Children with AES have a tendency to experience bad outcomes both disability and even death. In AES, diffuse brain edema occurs which causes disturbance of consciousness. The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) is the instrument of choice for assessing a person's level of consciousness and is widely associated with children's outcomes with AES especially in health care center with limited resources. This cross-sectional study, subjects were children treated with AES that were treated in Sanglah hospital in January 2018 to December 2019. Chi-square test was performed to assess categorical data. Followed by logistic regression multivariate analysis with backward method. A total of 142 subjects were analysed for their GCS score and the outcomes in this study. The results of multivariate analysis showed GCS values were associated with outcomes of children with AES [OR = 2.756, 95% CI 1.201 to 6.323, P 0.017]. Seizure status have a statistically significant relationship with the outcomes of children with AES [OR = 0.332, 95% CI 0.142 to 0.773, P 0.011]. Low GCS score is a risk factor of death in children with AES.

Zinc level in children with sickle cell anemia : Meta-analysis
Journal ID : AMJ-25-12-2022-10967; Author : Sawsan Mohammed Al Blewi,
Abstract : Sickle cell anemia is a chronic, inherited hemoglobinopathy disease that has a high morbidity and mortality. Zinc has a crucial role in immunity and growth, which are affected in these patients. This review evaluated the zinc level in sickle cell anemia patients. Cochrane Library, PubMed, Medline, and Google Scholar were searched and limited to the period from January 2012 to December 2022. The keywords "zinc levels," "sickle cell disease," "serum zinc," "sickle cell anemia," and "urinary zinc" were used. Out of the 353 studies, 76 full texts were screened, and only thirteen studies were included in the final analysis. The author's name, year of publication, patient's number, and study duration were collected and entered in an excel sheet. The RevMan system for meta-analysis was used, and the data were all continuous. The random effect was used due to the significant heterogeneity. Funnel plots were used to assess lateralization. A P-value of <0.05 was considered significant. The studies included 1513 patients and control subjects. In case-control studies, zinc levels were lower in patients with sickle cell disease; the odd ratio was -10.88, the 95% CI was -16.27—5.49, and the P-value for the overall effect was 0.0001. The cross-sectional studies showed the same, odd ratio, -22.07, 95% CI, -30.15—13.99, and the P-value for the overall effect, <0.0001. This review showed that the zinc level is low in sickle cell anemia patients compared to normal children, which has a negative impact on the disease. Randomized control studies are needed.

Comparative Study of the Effect of MTAD Irrigation Solution Activated By Laser on the Micro-Hardness of the Radicular Dentin
Journal ID : AMJ-24-12-2022-10965; Author : Morgana Quteifani,
Abstract : The work aims to compare the influence of irrigation solution MTAD when activated by laser and without activation on the root dentin micro-hardness (MH). Thirty root samples were prepared into two equal halves for dentin MH measurements. The sixty root halves were subdivided equally into three groups (twenty samples each) according to the utilized irrigation solution: MTAD activated by laser, MTAD non-activated by laser and deionized water (control group). Samples from each group were used for dentin MH determination at baseline determination and next to treating to evaluate the variation in MH. Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and student's t-test for MH. MTAD non-activated by laser displayed the highest significant lowering in dentin MH (P<0.5). The values of the MH of radicular dentin were higher when MTAD activated by laser used. The results revealed that MTAD activated by laser was the most efficient treatment. Further clinical tests are necessary for establishment of the efficiency, safety and biocompatibility of this treatment prior to be utilized normally in vivo.

Journal ID : AMJ-24-12-2022-10964; Author : Akram Ahmed Elmarakbi, Osama Mohamed Sayed, Ossama Mahmoud Mohamad, Amr Mohamed Lotfy,
Abstract : To compare the outcomes of management of ureteropelvic junction obstruction by open pyeloplasty using a stent or without a stent. Operating on a total of 48 patients diagnosed with UPJO randomly allocated to either group (I): patients managed with double J stent including 24 patients or group (II): the non-stented group (24 cases). Dismembered pyeloplasty was performed for the two groups. The obtained results showed that, after 1 week of the surgical procedure, group (II) had a significantly higher rate of complications as compared to group (I). However, urine analyses didn’t differ significantly among both groups. At six weeks post-operative, dysuria was the significant complaint among the group (I) compared to group (II). The percentage of patients with no complaint was higher among the group (II) compared to group (I). Post-operative hydronephrosis after six weeks was higher in the group (II) compared to group (I). GFR and split function were significantly higher among group A patients after three months postoperative in comparison to group B patients. Significant improvement was noted in patients managed with DJ stent compared with those non-stented regarding postoperative hydronephrosis, GFR, and split function when assessed by postoperative ultrasound (U/S) and DTPA, giving the high priority for the stent use in patients with UPJO.

The Effect of Myrtus Communis Extracts on the Pathogenic Salmonella SPP. Isolated from Milk and Soft Cheese in Baghdad City
Journal ID : AMJ-23-12-2022-10963; Author : Assist. Prof. Dr. Moutaz A.W. Abdul Mounam,
Abstract : Milk and cheese contamination with harmful bacteria is more common particularly those made from raw or inadequately pasteurized milk, have been implicated in the transfer of many foodborne diseases to humans. Pathogens enter raw milk from a variety of sources, salmonella is the most prevalent pathogenic bacterium that causes salmonellosis in people and animals. salmonella serovars produce the illness, which can show as anything from mild food poisoning to severe enteric fever. In recent years, extensive research into the antibacterial effects of essential oils and extracts has been conducted, revealing their potency and potential to inhibit the growth of a wide range of hazardous microbes. Fifty (50) samples of raw cow milk and soft white cheese randomly collected from different local market and bulk farm between (February 2021 - May 15, 2022), from the different Area of Baghdad city. Milk and cheese are significant sources of salmonella, particularly for those who prefer raw milk. the prevalence of salmonella was (20% of 50) among different types of samples. We conclude that Myrtus communis essential oil possesses antimicrobial properties against the three tested strains: salmonella typhimurium, salmonella enteritidis and salmonella infantis. Raw milk and soft white cheese act as a wide source of contamination with pathogen, and we consider Myrtus communis oil act as antibacterial action.
