The association of HTRA1 rs11200638 and ARMS2 rs10490924 gene polymorphisms with response to intravitreal ranibizumab therapy among neovascular AMD (nAMD) subjects in Malaysia was determined this study, followed by the expression genes.Both single nucleotide (SNPs) recorded a significant between nAMD controls at P = 0.018 (OR 1.52, 95% CI 1.07-215) < 0.001 2.44, 1.75-3.42). An also observed for both SNPs logistic regression analysis (P 0.001). mRNA levels variant responder non-responder...
Type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder. It major non-communicable disease affecting 463 million people globally in 2019 and expected to be double about 700 by 2045. The majority are Asians with Indian ethnicity Malaysia reported as the highest prevalence of T2DM. Cardiovascular disease, renal failure, blindness neuropathy, well premature death known morbidity mortality resulted from T2DM characterized dysfunctional insulin physiology that causes reduction glucose...
Problem consideredLumbar puncture (LP) refusal rates of as high 30% have been reported in developing countries. Without LP, the patients may suffer suboptimal treatment or unnecessary complications from their disease. Due to a lack studies exploring reasons behind this LP refusal, no solution has suggested address problem. Therefore, we carried out study with aim determining knowledge and attitude towards among public.MethodsA cross-sectional survey staff public university Malaysia was...
Endothelin-1 (ET-1), the most potent endogenous vasoconstrictor, generated by enzymatic cleavage catalyzed an endothelin-converting enzyme (ECE), plays a significant role in regulation of hypertension.This study investigates effect endothelin-1 (Lys198Asn/rs5370) and ECE (rs212526 C/T) gene polymorphisms with essential hypertension (EH) among Malay ethnics. To determine association polymorphism, 177 hypertensives controls (196) were genotyped using Taqman method.A difference was observed...
Abstract Background This is a phase II randomised, double-blind, sham-controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness and tolerability of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for preventive treatment episodic migraine amongst subjects. Methods Subjects age 18 60 years will undergo baseline evaluation establish diagnosis based on International Classification Headache Disorder 3rd Edition (ICHD-3). Those who fulfil ICHD-3 criteria compliant headache diary during month run-in period be...
Kimura disease (KD) is a benign chronic inflammatory disorder attributed to an immune mediated hypersensitivity. KD commonly presented with unilateral subcutaneous tissue swelling in the head and neck area. The course usually except for potential cosmetic disfigurement. There no consensus treatment of recurrent disease. To illustrate case uncommon cause swelling. A 41-year-old male painless at his right lower cheek 6-months. Head examination revealed 7 × cm firm, non tender mass over...
Pharmacogenetic studies indicate that a variable response to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy in patients with neovascular form of AMD (nAMD) may be due polymorphisms the complement H gene (CFH). This study is first investigate association between CFH Y402H polymorphism and ranibizumab Malaysian nAMD. We included 134 nAMD, examined September 2014 February 2016. The diagnosis nAMD was confirmed by ophthalmologic examination, before started. Each patient received an...
The study was aimed to analyze the clinical and radiological features, which characterized specific unilateral sinus diseases .A retrospective review of patients' medical records with un ilateral opacification detected from computed tomography (CT) scan for 10 years duration in UniversitiKebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre (UKMMC).The presentation, mean age, presence calcification bony destruction Lund Mackay scor e between groups were compared.Total 151 (23.5%) patients had paranasal on CT...

A 33-year-old female presented with persistent and troublesome right tinnitus two months after receiving a booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. She noticed to be pulsatile, disappearing whenever she lay in bed side her head on pillow. had no hearing loss, history ear infections, or complaints neurological dysfunction. Upon examination, gentle pressure applied neck would make cease completely. computed tomography (CT) scan temporal bone suggested sigmoid sinus dehiscence (SSD). Without...
Introduction: Individuals with hearing impairment may not inevitably have handicaps. They might be psychologically or socially bothered by the deficit in daily life. Objective: This study aims to examine perception of handicaps among individuals impairment. Methods: A cross-sectional comprised 109 at ENT clinic Hospital Serdang. Data on sociodemographic characteristics, level and Hearing Handicap Inventory for Adults (HHIA) questionnaire score were accumulated. measured using HHIA score....
Internal jugular vein thrombosis is an uncommon entity secondary to various aetiologies. In the pre-antibiotic era, it was commonly associated with Lemierre syndrome, a septic thrombophlebitis of internal oropharyngeal infection. With advent antibiotics, syndrome has become rare and often overlooked. may also occur in setting malignancy, combination referred as Trousseau’s which not well documented.
We describe the presentation and management of a case rectus sheath haematoma secondary to spontaneous rupture deep circumflex iliac artery aneurysm. This was successfully treated with coil embolization. Such has never, our knowledge, previously been reported.
