Secondary syphilis with HIV infection in Men Who Have Sex with Men (MSM) patient treated with azithromycin and doxycycline: a case report
Authors: Hani Lusyana  , Agus Walujo  , Lina Damayanti  
Published: March 2024

Background: Syphilis frequently presents in tandem with HIV and the prevalence is increasing, particularly in men who have sex with men (MSM). The most common and recognizable manifestations are usually the secondary stage, characterized with or without constitutional symptoms. This case study aims to evaluate secondary syphilis with HIV infection in MSM patient treated with azithromycin and doxycycline
Case Presentation: A 22-year-old man with secondary syphilis and HIV infection. The diagnosis was established based on erythema and hyperpigmented maculopapular lesions with the scale on the forearms, palms, back, feet, and soles without pruritic sensation, a history of the same-sex sexual partners, and the titer of VDRL 1:64, TPHA 1:2560. The patient also has a low CD4 level and HIV-1 RNA were detected on a blood test. Patients received azithromycin 2 grams orally and continued by doxycycline twice a day for 30 days and treated for the HIV Infection. Skin disorders have improved rapidly and are significantly accompanied by decreased VDRL titer.
Conclusion: The therapy of 2-gram azithromycin improved clinical manifestation on the skin. The following treatment of 30 days doxycycline showed clinical improvement and significant decline in a nontreponemal serologic test.

Published: March 2024

Background: There are several theories that suggest melanocyte death in vitiligo, one example is oxidative stress theory. Oxidative stress primarily manifested by lipid peroxidation ultimately produce malondialdehyde. Malondialdehyde is a stable marker to assess an oxidative stress event. The correlation between serum malondialdehyde levels and vitiligo severity and activity remained controversial in previous studies.
Objective: This study aimed to verify whether or not the serum MDA levels are positively correlated with vitiligo severity and activity.
Methods: This study was an analytical cross-sectional study. which involved 64 subjects with vitiligo and 20 subjects without vitiligo. Serum MDA levels were measured to mark an oxidative stress event, whereas the severity and activity of vitiligo were clinically assessed with vitiligo area severity index (VASI) and vitiligo disease activity (VIDA) scoring system.
Results: Total 64 subjects with vitiligo and 20 subjects without vitiligo participated in this study. Serum MDA mean levels of vitiligo subjects were significantly higher compared to subjects without vitiligo (p<0.05). Serum MDA levels had a strong positive correlation with VASI score (r=0.761; p<0.01). The strong positive correlation found between serum MDA levels with vitiligo activity assessed by VASI score in vitiligo subjects (r=0.609; p<0.01), and high serum MDA levels increased the risk for developing vitiligo (PR=7.62; 95% CI: 2.49-23.30; p<0.01). Serum MDA levels influenced vitiligo as much as 10.1%, meanwhile the remaining 89.9% were influenced by other variables apart from high serum MDA levels out of this study (R2=0.101; p<0.05).
Conclusion: Serum MDA levels were positively correlated with vitiligo severity and activity, and high serum MDA levels increased the risk of developing vitiligo.
Negative correlation between interleukin-2 (IL-2) serum with bacterial index in leprosy
Authors: Patricia Dian Putri  , Luh Made Mas Rusyati  , Made Swastika Adiguna  
Published: March 2024

Background: Leprosy is strongly influenced by the host immunity response. One of the cytokines that play a role in cellular immunity is IL-2. IL-2 will stimulate macrophages to activate phagocytosis and form granulomas, and this occurs in the leprosy tuberculoid type. Aim of this study was to verify the IL-2 serum levels are negatively correlated or not with bacterial index in leprosy.
Methods: This study was a cross-sectional observational analytic study involving 50 leprosy subjects (41 MB and 9 PB types). Study was conducted at Dermatolovenerology Polyclinic of Sanglah General Hospital from December 2019 to March 2020. Ridley’s scale was used to determine bacterial index (BI). IL-2 serum levels were measured by ELISA.
Result: The mean of IL-2 serum in PB was 75.53±10.32 pg/mL and in MB was 37.59±17.13 pg/mL. Strong negative correlation (r= -0.67; p<0.001) between serum IL-2 levels with bacterial index (CI 95%= 25.96–49.93; p<0.001) was found. Every 1 pg/mL increase in IL-2 serum levels will be accompanied by a decrease in the bacterial index of 0.039 and vice versa. Determinant coefficient shows that 42.2% of the BI is affected by the IL-2 serum levels. Low IL-2 serum levels were the risk factor of high BI 2.8 times (PR= 2.8; CI 95%= 1.444–5.519; p<0.001).
Conclusion: IL-2 serum levels were found to be higher in PB than MB. There was a negative correlation between IL-2 serum levels with bacterial index. Low IL-2 serum levels were the risk factor of a high bacterial index in leprosy patients.

The role of working conditions in educational differences in all-cause and ischemic heart disease mortality among Swedish men

Published: March 2024

OBJECTIVES: This study aims to investigate the extent to which low job control and heavy physical workload in middle age explain educational differences in all-cause and ischemic heart disease (IHD) mortality while accounting for important confounding factors.
METHODS: The study is based on a register-linked cohort of men who were conscripted into the Swedish military at around the age of 18 in 1969/1970 and were alive and registered in Sweden in 2005 (N=46 565). Cox proportional hazards regression models were built to estimate educational differences in all-cause and IHD mortality and the extent to which this was explained by physical workload and job control around age 55 by calculating the reduction in hazard ratio (HR) after adjustments. Indicators of health, health behavior, and other factors measured during conscription were accounted for.
RESULTS: We found a clear educational gradient for all-cause and IHD mortality (HR 2.07 and 2.47, respectively, for the lowest compared to the highest education level). A substantial part was explained by the differential distribution of the confounding factors. However, work-related factors, especially high physical workload, also played important explanatory roles.
CONCLUSION: Even after accounting for earlier life factors, low job control and especially high physical workload seem to be important mechanistic factors in explaining educational inequalities in all-cause and IHD mortality. It is therefore important to find ways to reduce physical workload and increase job control in order to decrease inequalities in mortality.

Published: March 2024

Purpose: The research aims to inspect and estimate the impact of Personal motivation of trainees on Skill acquiring in skill training. It identifies the relationship between the personal input its impact on the training process and the relation it produces in the outcome (skills acquired)
Design/methodology/approach: A questionnaire for the study was designed, and information was composed on a multistage random sampling basis. Three hundred and eighty-four samples of data were collected and analyzed using Smart PLS - Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique.
Findings: The study shows that Personal motivation plays a positive role in the skill gain of rural youth. It is also clear from the model that training processes like quality and relevance play a mediating role in acquiring skills. The factors help in the understanding type of input to be concentrated by the policymakers to increase a specific outcome. All the factors influence the training outcome (skill acquired) positive results.
Research limitations/implications: This study covers only personal motivation as trainee input. Other training inputs like social factors, economic factors, and equality factors may further be included in future studies.
Social Implications: The study will help the policymakers to get focus on which area the rural youth must be motivated to get the desired outcome. In this case, personal motivation is the key for rural youth to gain skills. Also, the training institutes must ensure that they provide good quality and relevance to boost the personal behavior of rural youth. If a training institute aims at only adding skill gain to the rural youth the major factor to be boosted is the personal factor.
Originality/Value: Only limited studies have examined the impact of Personal factors on the Skills acquired as training outcome with quality and relevance as mediating factors of Smart PLS is a novel idea, and it is a first-hand study of its kind.
