Background: Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a significant risk factor for End-Stage Renal Disease, with high global incidence and mortality rate. Hyperglycemia in DKD induces inflammation, contributing to glomerular hyperfiltration, fibrosis, impaired renal function. Current therapies, including SGLT2 inhibitors, ACE ARBs, show limited efficacy. Autologous dendritic cells (DCs) offer potential anti-inflammatory effects by reducing cytokine activity fibrosis biomarkers. Methods: A...

Samples were selected by stratified multi-stage clustering sampling...

Purpose This research aimed to compared chest radiographic characteristics of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) and non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infection, which can be used in early diagnostic screening. Material methods The method this study was cross-sectional obtain the relationship between findings. Results Among 538 subjects who were positive for TB during screening, 11 (2.04%) had MDR-TB, 147 (27.32%) drug-sensitive TB, 380 (70.63%) NTM infection. findings that...

A new emerging infectious disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 has a global pandemic. Early diagnosis is essential to prevent and halt the spread of disease, patient management isolation. In this study, we aimed reveal correlations between clinical laboratory findings with chest CT.This in an observational case series single center study secondary hospital Jakarta, Indonesia. Patients were included if they had typical symptoms positive RT-PCR for SARS-CoV-2.Forty-two patients study. Typical CT...

Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is a frequent problem in Indonesia but its treatment still limited. This type of related to oxidative stress and decreased vascularization, which can damage the hair cell. The intra-arterial heparin flushing (IAHF) procedure that recover circulation agent, namely heparin, also has antioxidant activity. Therefore, IAHF potential improve function be considered an alternative therapy for SNHL.The study evaluates effect on improvement based difference threshold...

Tumor sel germinal (TSG) merupakan suatu kelompok neoplasma jinak dan ganas yang berasal dari primitif pada awal embriogenesis. TSG sering terjadi di gonad, namun dapat juga ekstragonad (5-10%). tersering adalah mediastinum anterosuperior. Salah satu jenis tumor teratoma mediastinal imatur primer jarang ditemukan, hanya 1% semua mediastinal.

The exact link between cognitive impairment (CI) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is still limited. Thus, we aim to find the relationship interaction of quantitative CT (QCT), lung function, HIF-1α, clinical factors with development CI among COPD patients.

A foreign body that enters the airway through aspiration may become lodged in trachea, bronchi, or larynx. The size, shape, and type of determine where it should be lodged. Children are more frequently impacted. Unexpected inspiration during play fighting while holding something their mouths can result accidents. first study choice for any child being evaluated is still a plain film chest X-ray. Computerized tomographic examinations have slightly higher sensitivity. We report case...
