BACKGROUND: Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a medical condition with dangerous complications including lung thromboembolism which can cause death. However, the disease is often neglected, leading to delays in diagnosis and treatment. Patients with lower extremity DVT clinical signs and symptoms usually cause diagnostic dilemmas, specifically for general practitioners (GP). Various diagnostic strategies have been proposed to diagnose DVT although they still have several limitations. Therefore, emergency compression US by non-radiologists or cardiologists needs to be further considered as a fast and accurate alternative...

Hyponatremia is a common clinical problem in older people. The aging process is usually accompanied by various maladaptations to stress in different organs and physiologic functions. Medications are often the cause of hyponatremia such as thiazide diuretics, antidepressants, antiepileptic and antipsychotics. Antipsychotics can lead to severe hyponatremia by the mechanism of the development of the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH). We report a patient who presented with severe hyponatremia due to Chlorpromazine and improved after receiving corrective hyponatremia...

BACKGROUND: COVID-19 can have serious long term health consequences, which is called Post-COVID-19 Syndrome (PCS). Currently, the available evidence and understanding of PCS management is limited. Because one of the symptoms of PCS is associated to psychological symptoms, psychotherapy is believed to have a role in the management of PCS. This study aimed to identify the effectiveness of supportive psychotherapy in PCS patients at Cipto Mangunkusumo National General Hospital. METHODS: This study was a single blind randomized clinical trial using a pre-and post-test with control group study design...

BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a significant contributor to cancer-related morbidity and mortality. Biopsy remains the gold standard for CRC diagnosis, but invasive testing may not be preferred as an initial diagnostic procedure. Therefore, alternative non-invasive approaches are needed. Circulating tumor cells (CTC) present in the bloodstream have great potential as a non-invasive diagnostic marker for CRC patients. This study aimed to assess the diagnostic potential of CTC in CRC as an adjunctive diagnostic method using a subjective manual identification method and laser capture microdissection at 40x magnification...

Cancer is a complex group of diseases which arises from uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells in the body. The pathophysiology of cancer involves a sequence of events at the cellular and molecular levels, often initiated by genetic mutations or alterations. These mutations can be acquired due to various factors like environmental exposures such as from carcinogens, lifestyle choices, or inherited genetic conditions. When a cell's DNA is damaged or mutated, it can disrupt the normal regulatory mechanisms that control cell division and apoptosis, leading to uncontrolled proliferation and cancer...

The increasing rate of central vascular access use especially for hemodialysis access in Indonesia carries risk of retention of the guidewire to the heart resulting in a condition known as heart foreign bodies. We described a case of mislocation of double-lumen catheter guidewire to the right atrium in a patient planned to perform hemodialysis. The patient complained of dyspnea and swelling of extremities but the symptoms had already appeared before the insertion of the catheter due to the patient's underlying kidney disease arising conclusion that the foreign bodies itself are asymptomatic...

BACKGROUND: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive cancer subtype, with limited treatments and a high metastasis risk. The varying location of metastasis in TNBC patients often leads to in prognosis in breast cancer. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the potential association between immune cells profiles in the tumor microenvironment and metastatic patterns. METHODS: We conducted a multicenter cross-sectional study in 2022 to examine formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) and medical record data from 2015 to 2020 in de novo metastatic TNBC patients...

Cardiotoxicity associated with chemotherapy, also known as Cancer Therapy-Related Cardiac Dysfunction (CTRCD), affects 10% of patients undergoing chemotherapy and is the most undesirable side effect of chemotherapy. Over time, it is anticipated that there would be an increase in the number of cancer patients receiving treatments that could harm their cardiovascular systems. Physicians should choose whether to continue, halt, delay, or reduce the dose of chemotherapeutic drugs to reduce the impact of cardiotoxicity...

Hypokalemia due to loss of potassium through the kidneys can be caused by distal Renal Tubular Acidosis (dRTA). The etiology of dRTA can be primary due to genetic defects or secondary to autoimmune diseases, especially Sjogren's syndrome (SS). The occurrence of dRTA in SS patients is low, at only 5% of cases. This case was interesting because dRTA was the initial clinical manifestation that led to the diagnosis of SS in the patient. A 48-year-old woman came with complaints of recurrent weakness. The patient was routinely hospitalized with severe hypokalemia and received potassium supplementation...

Breast cancer is among the deadliest gynecology cancers in the world. However, the management of advanced-stage breast cancer is often harder as a result of chemoresistance. This review aimed to discover the effect of bromocriptine on prolactin-positive breast cancer patients who received anthracycline-based chemotherapy. It is known that anthracycline works by inhibiting topoisomerase IIα (TOP2A), forming free radicals, binding DNA, and altering cell homeostasis, hence stopping the cell cycle and inducing cell death...
