Authors: Natapraja R. Bayu Kusumah , Tresnawan Teten 
Published: June 2024

Pada tanggal 30 Januari 2020 WHO menetapkan Covid-19 sebagai pandemik. 8 bulan kemudian kasus Covid-19 hampir menyerang seluruh dunia. Salah satu upaya yang dilakukan pemerintah yaitu dengan cara 3M (memakai masker, mencuci tangan dan menjauhi kerumunan/mobilisasi), upaya preventifnya yaitu dengan vaksin Covid-19. Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui adakah pengaruh faktor perhatian, pengetahuan, status pernikahan, riwayat penyakit, dan riwayat terpapar Covid-19 terhadap persepsi masyarakat mengenai vaksinasi Covid-19. Hasil uji statistik diperoleh nilai p<0,05, sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa ada hubungan yang signifikan antara umur, pendidikan, riwayat PTM, riwayat terpapar Covid-19, dan pengetahuan dengan persepsi masyarakat tentang vaksinasi Covid-19, hanya riwayat pernikahan yang tidak hubungan dengan nilai p=0,919 atau >0,05. Simpulan terdapat hubungan antara umur, pendidikan, riwayat PTM, riwayat terpapar Covid-19, dan pengetahuan dengan persepsi masyarakat tentang vaksinasi Covid-19. Disarankan Pemerintah Desa Cicukang diminta secara aktif untuk terus bersosialisasi kepada masyarakat untuk memberikan informasi, baik itu tentang upaya agar Covid-19 tidak lagi mengalami peningkatan kasus aktif dan informasi tentang vaksin agar masyarakat mau dan ingin segera untuk divaksin.Kata kunci: Persepsi; Vaksin; Covid-19 AbstractOn January 30, 2020 WHO declared Covid-19 a pandemic. 8 months later Covid-19 cases almost attacked the whole world. One of the efforts made by the government is by 3M (wearing masks, washing hands and staying away from crowds / mobilization), preventive efforts are the Covid-19 vaccine. The purpose of the study was to determine whether there is an influence of attention factors, knowledge, marital status, history of illness, and history of exposure to Covid-19 on people's perceptions of Covid-19 vaccination. The statistical test results obtained a p value <0.05, so it can be concluded that there is a significant relationship between age, education, history of NCD, history of exposure to Covid-19, and knowledge with public perceptions of Covid-19 vaccination, only marriage history has no relationship with a p value = 0.919 or >0.05. It is concluded that there is a relationship between age, education, history of NCD, history of exposure to Covid-19, and knowledge with community perception of Covid-19 vaccination. It is recommended that the Cicukang Village Government be actively asked to continue to socialize with the community to provide information, both about efforts so that Covid-19 no longer has an increase in active cases and information about vaccines so that people want and want to be vaccinated immediately.Keywords: Perception; Vaccine; Covid-19

Abstract
The Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image (MAXI) detected a superflare, releasing 5 × 1037 erg in 2−10 keV, of the RS CVn-type star IM Peg at 10:41 UT on 2023 July 23 with its Gas Slit Camera (2−30 keV). We conducted X-ray follow-up observations of the superflare with the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER; 0.2−12 keV) starting at 16:52 UT on July 23 until 06:00 UT on August 2. NICER X-ray spectra clearly showed emission lines of the Fe xxv Heα and Fe xxvi Lyα for ∼1.5 days since the MAXI detection. The Fe XXV Heα line was blueshifted with its maximum Doppler velocity reaching −2200 ± 600 km s−1, suggesting an upward-moving plasma during the flare, such as a coronal mass ejection (CME) and/or chromospheric evaporation. This is the first case that the Fe xxv Heα line is blueshifted during a stellar flare, and its velocity overwhelmingly exceeds the escape velocity of the star (−230 km s−1). One hour before the most pronounced blueshift detection, a signature of the reheating of the flare plasma was observed. We discuss the origin of the blueshift, a CME, or high-velocity chromospheric evaporation.

Published: June 2024

Sciaenidae is one of the most important coastal fisheries in Taiwan, both in production and economic value. It is also significant as the main targetted diet of Chinese white dolphins, Sousa chinensis, especially for the genus Johnius, such as J. taiwanensis, J. belangerii and J. distinctus, which is primarily found in central-western Taiwan coastal waters. Despite an abundance of Johnius species occurrences reported in the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) and the Taiwan Biodiversity Information Facility (TaiBIF) data portals (Mozambique, Australia, Taiwan, Korea, India, Indonesia, South Africa, Pakistan, Vietnam and China), there are no specific datasets that properly document the regional distribution of this genus, especially in Taiwanese waters. Thus, this paper describes a dataset of genus Johnius occurrences in waters on the central-western coast of Taiwan. The data collection for the present study was conducted from 2009 until 2020 and comprised 62 sampling events and 133 occurrence records. All fish specimens were collected by trawling in Miaoli, Changhwa and Yunlin Counties, Taiwan and brought back to the lab for identification, individual number count and body weight measurement. These processing data have been integrated and established in the Taiwan Fish Database and published in GBIF. This dataset contains six Johnius species and 2,566 specimens, making it comprehensive Johnius fish fauna and spatial distributional data on the coastal habitat in central-western Taiwanese waters.
This dataset contains 133 occurrence records of Johnius species (Sciaenidae) with 2,566 specimens, making it the most extensive public dataset of Johnius distribution records in Taiwan. The publication of this dataset through the TaiBIF and GBIF dataset platforms demonstrated that the number of Johnius spatial and temporal records in Taiwan waters is influenced by the topographical structure of the Changyun Rise (CYR) in combination with the cold current of the China Coastal currents and bound with the warm currents of the Kuroshio and the South China Sea on the central-western coast of Taiwan. The data serve as the foundation for understanding the biogeography and Johnius species ecology in Taiwan's coastal waters, which present a 2°C water temperature difference split at the CYR.

Abstract
Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and long-term disabilities worldwide. In addition to interruption of blood flow, inflammation is widely recognized as an important factor mediating tissue destruction in stroke. Depending on their phenotype, microglia, the main leukocytes in the CNS, are capable of either causing further tissue damage or promoting brain restoration after stroke. β2-integrins are cell adhesion molecules that are constitutively expressed on microglia. The function of β2-integrins has been investigated extensively in animal models of ischemic stroke, but their role in hemorrhagic stroke is currently poorly understood. We show in this study that dysfunction of β2-integrins is associated with improved functional outcome and decreased inflammatory cytokine expression in the brain in a mouse model of hemorrhagic stroke. Furthermore, β2-integrins affect microglial phenotype and cytokine responses in vivo. Therefore, our findings suggest that targeting β2-integrins in hemorrhagic stroke may be beneficial.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:
Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a systemic rheumatic disease characterized mainly by involvement of sacroiliac joints and axial skeleton. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) inhibitors are biologic agents which are Food and Drug Administration approved to treat AS and also act as a key factor in the treatment of autoimmune thyroid disease.

OBJECTIVE:
This study aimed to evaluate the thyroid gland disorders (functions and thyroid autoantibodies) in AS patients on anti-TNF-α biologics and their relation to disease activity.

PATIENTS AND METHODS:
This comparative cross-sectional study included 75 AS patients classified into two groups: Group I: treated with NSAIDs (n = 30) and Group II: treated with anti-TNF-α biologics (n = 45). Thyroid function tests, thyroid autoantibodies, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), and human leukocytic antigen B27 were measured. AS disease activity was assessed by Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI), and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index (BASMI) scores. Thyroid ultrasonography was used to detect any thyroid gland nodularity and echogenicity.

RESULTS:
There were significant differences between both groups regarding BASDAI (P = 0.005), CRP (P = 0.005), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) (P = 0.001), and anti-thyroid peroxidase (anti-TPO) (P = 0.007). A significant difference was found regarding the thyroid status, with more normal thyroid and more hyperthyroid patients in the anti-TNF-treated group (P = 0.003). There were statistically significant positive correlations between BASDAI and CRP (P = 0.007), TSH (P = 0.004), and thyroid anti-TPO antibody (P = 0.008) in the anti-TNF-treated patients. By ultrasound examination of the thyroid gland, 75.6% of the anti-TNF group had normal thyroid gland compared to 56.6% of the other group, and the reported nodules were mostly of benign TIRADS classification. Comparing different subgroups of thyroid nodularity with different treatment regimens revealed significant differences in BASDAI and different laboratory investigations in favor of the anti-TNF-treated patients.

CONCLUSION:
From this cohort study, we can conclude that thyroid autoimmune disease and thyroid nodules in AS patients can be controlled by treatment with anti-TNF-α biologic drugs better than NSAIDs alone.

Abstract:
Inflammation of the sacroiliac joint (SIJ), termed sacroiliitis, commonly presents as chronic back pain. A definitive diagnosis is made using a variety of radiological techniques that differ in specificity and sensitivity. This study aims to estimate the annual incidence of sacroiliitis and to explore the frequency of multiple modalities used in its evaluation. a retrospective analytic study that examined patients’ records of diagnostic imaging of the SIJ (magnetic resonance imaging [MRI], computerized tomography, and X-ray) at a tertiary center in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, from January 2012 to June 2016. Sacroiliitis was diagnosed in 129 patients out of 338 over 4 years, giving an annual incidence of 28.17%, with an increase of 6% reaching 36% in 2015. Patients with sacroiliitis were older and obese which was statistically significant. There was a significant risk in the white ethnic group and female gender (P < 0.005). The incidence of sacroiliitis is increasing. MRI exceeded other radiological modalities in the diagnostic process. The results are supported by existing guidelines recommending MRI for early detection; however, other modalities are to be replaced depending on the preclinical probability.

Authors: El-Shahed Ahmed F. , El-Shahed Fawzi S. , Yousef Walid A. , El-Shahed Reem F. 
Published: June 2024

Aim
The aim of this study was to compare the outcome of amniotic membrane transplantation (AMT) and topical mitomycin-C (MMC) in the management of recurrent pterygia.

Patients and methods
This is a retrospective study that included 40 cases of recurrent pterygia. They were subjected to surgical excision of the pterygium with bare sclera technique. The cases were categorized into two groups, 20 cases in each group. Group 1 was managed with intraoperative topical MMC, while group 2 was managed with AMT at the time of surgery. The patients were followed-up for at least 6 months postoperatively. The outcome measures were visual acuity (VA), corneal astigmatism, recurrence, and postoperative complications.

Results
The duration of postoperative pain was significantly shorter in the AMT group (6.8±1.0 days) than in the MMC group (10.45±1.5 days, P<0.0001). In addition, postoperative photophobia and lacrimation persisted for a significantly longer period in the MMC group (mean=10.0±1.03 days) compared to the AMT group (mean=7.85±0.81 days, P<0.0001). At the end of follow-up period, VA improvement occurred in 60% of group 1 and in 70% of group 2 patients. However, the preoperative and postoperative decimal VA were not significantly different between the two study groups (P=0.6684 and 0.7302, respectively). In group 1, there was a significant difference between the preoperative corneal astigmatism [−3.74±2.19 diopter (D)] and the postoperative astigmatism (−2.31±1.46 D) after 6 months (P<0.01). Similarly, in group 2, there was also a significant difference between the preoperative corneal astigmatism (−3.83±2.32 D) and the postoperative astigmatism (−2.12±1.60 D) after 6 months (P<0.01). However, the difference between the two groups was statistically insignificant. In the first postoperative 2 weeks, there was a statistically insignificant higher incidence of delayed wound healing and superficial punctate keratitis in the MMC group. The corneal wound healing was faster in the AMT group (mean=4.2±0.69 days) than in the MMC group (mean=4.6±o.6 days). However, the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.0578). At 2 weeks postoperatively, there were two cases of conjunctival defect and one case of scleral thinning in the MMC group only. At the end of the follow-up period, another case, in the MMC group, developed scleral thinning; however, the cornea was clear.

Conclusion
AMT and MMC could be used in the management of recurrent pterygia. The AMT group showed better visual outcome without postoperative complications. However, the difference between the two groups was statistically insignificant.
Evaluation of glaucomatous macular and optic nerve vascular damage by optical coherence tomography angiography
Authors: Hatata Ragai M. , Nan Heba M. , Kamal Mahmoud A. , Elghonemy Hanan M. , Taha Reham H. 
Published: June 2024

Purpose
The aim of this study was to compare the macular and optic nerve head vessel perfusion density in mild primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and moderate–severe POAG patients to normal eyes as a control cohort.

Patients and methods
This is a retrospective comparative case–control study that included 80 eyes of 46 participants. The study included 60 eyes of 36 POAG patients and 20 eyes of 10 healthy participants (control group). The patients underwent 3.0×3.0 mm optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) scans centered on the macula and 4.5×4.5 mm scans on the optic disc.

Results
The OCTA scans of the glaucomatous eyes revealed a reduction in microvasculature in the peripapillary area, which was absent in the control cohort. The whole disc vessel density (VD) was significantly less in the glaucomatous eyes (mean=38.02±8.74) compared to the control cohort (mean=50.41±2.58, P<0.001). The severity of glaucoma was linked to a decrease in macular VD percentage, with a mean superficial VD of 36.09±5.67 in the glaucoma cohorts and 46.64±5.53 in the control cohort (P<0.001), which was more pronounced than in the deep layer (P<0.008). There was no statistically significant difference in the foveal avascular zone size between the control and glaucoma cohorts at any stage (P=0.999).

Conclusion
The OCTA vascular density accurately distinguished the glaucoma from healthy eyes, with superior performance in the peripapillary region. The foveal avascular zone size did not indicate glaucoma severity. The OCTA noninvasive assessment of the capillary networks showed a potential for managing the glaucoma patients by characterizing the retinal vascular changes.

Authors: Govind Indu , Reddy Manjoo S. , Roche Anjali L. 
Published: June 2024

Purpose
The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of pseudoexfoliation (PEX) among patients presenting with cataract in rural South India and to assess the perioperative complications encountered during cataract surgery.

Patients and methods
This prospective, observational, cross-sectional study was conducted at the Department of Ophthalmology, East Point College of Medical Sciences and Research Centre, Bangalore, India. A total of 2708 patients with senile cataract attending the camps conducted by the department were selected for the study. Patients aged between 50 and 90 years, planned for cataract surgery were consecutively included and a complete ophthalmic evaluation was done for the presence of PEX. The complications encountered during cataract surgery were noted and assessed.

Results
The study included 4390 phakic eyes of 2708 patients. The prevalence of PEX, observed in this study population, was 4.62%. The mean age of the patients with PEX was 67±7.5 years, with 66.4% of the patients being males and 33.6% being females. Unilateral involvement was observed in 63.2% of the patients, whereas 36.8% had bilateral PEX. The mean pupillary dilation was 5.2±1.01 mm in the patients diagnosed with PEX. The presence of nondilating pupils was statistically significantly higher (P=0.000) in the PEX group compared to the non-PEX patients. Increased preoperative intraocular pressure was observed in 22.4% of the PEX patients. Vitreous loss (in 7.2%), zonular dehiscence (in 6.4%), and intraocular lens decentration (in 4.8%) were the most encountered complications with a statistically significant higher occurrence in the PEX group (P<0.05). In addition, capsular rent was observed in 1.6% of the PEX cases.

Conclusion
The prevalence of PEX among patients presenting with cataract in this South Indian study was similar to other published Indian studies. There were comparable rates of complications in cataract surgery among the PEX patients to the existing literature.

Authors: Radi Yomna E. , Elmatbouly Essam S. , Daifalla Ahmed , Bayoumy Ahmed Sherin M. 
Published: June 2024

Purpose
To compare the results of three-snip punctoplasty with the placement of three everting interrupted sutures versus three-snip punctoplasty with mini-Monoka stent in managing punctual stenosis.

Patients and methods
Fifty adult patients underwent three-snip punctoplasty with three everting interrupted sutures in one eye (right eye) (group A), and the other eye (left eye) (group B) underwent three-snip punctopasty with mini-Monoka stent. The sutures and stent were removed 6 weeks after the surgery. Epiphora, punctal opening, tear height meniscus, fluorescein and disappearance test results were analyzed and compared to preoperative information.

Results
Hundred eyes of 50 patients with a median age of 59 years, and females accounted for 56% of the sample. Anatomical and functional success in the right eye (group A) was 87.8 and 85.7%, respectively. On the other hand, the left eye (group B) anatomical and functional success were 89.7 and 87.7%, respectively. Regarding epiphora, there was a statistically significant difference between presurgical and postsurgical follow-up examinations in both right and left groups regarding Munk score. Tear Meniscus Height (TMH) decreased all through the follow-up visits between the two groups, almost to half, with no significant difference between both groups.

Conclusion
Both three-snip punctoplasty with everting sutures and three-snip punctoplasty with mini-Monoka stent are successful techniques in the management of punctal stenosis.

Abstract
Idiopathic hirsutism (IH) is a common clinical condition with multiple diagnostic and therapeutic uncertainties. There are no clear recommendations for the diagnosis and management of the condition. This practice update was developed to guide the primary care physicians and the specialists in better and more systematic management of IH particularly in the Indian context. Twelve experienced members consisting of eminent endocrinologists, physicians, a dermatologist, a gynaecologist and a psychiatrist were invited by the Integrated Diabetes and Endocrine Academy (IDEA). A literature search was performed using online databases from PubMed, Cochrane Library and Google Scholar. Published articles from peer-reviewed indexed journals, with a preference for meta-analyses and randomized controlled trials, were selected. A meeting took place with all the 12 members individually giving their opinions on predetermined questions of interest. After the initial meeting during IDEACON 2023, two more meetings were held and the practice update was formulated after voting. Practice updates were made on important areas such as the cut-off for modified Ferriman-Gallwey Score for the Indian population, conditions to be excluded before diagnosing IH, when to refer to specialists, investigations in a suspected case of IH and choice of therapies for its management.
