FOREWORD

Christina Wunardi Secretary of Academic AMSA-Indonesia 2019/2020

AMSA National Competition Archive, or AMINO, is an archive of all academic works submitted to AMSA-Indonesia’s competitions, consisting of Pre-Conference Competition East Asian Medical Students’ Conference (PCC EAMSC), Indonesian Medical Students’ Training and Competition (IMSTC), and Pre-Conference Competition Asian Medical Students’ Conference (PCC AMSC). AMINO aims to provide thorough overview of AMSA-Indonesia’s national competitions to all members of AMSA-Indonesia. On the second volume, all the qualified works that was submitted to the IMSTC 2020 committee have been compiled and are expected to draw forth inspiration and motivation in creating academic works in the field of Scientific Paper, Scientific Poster, Public Poster, Photography, and Videography. I would like to thank and express my sincere appreciation to all the participants of IMSTC 2020, the Academic Team, Executive Boards of AMSA-Indonesia 2019/2020, and other parties that have contributed to the creation of this AMINO. I would also like to give my utmost gratitude to AMSA-Universitas Brawijaya for organizing this very successful event. Hopefully, the release of AMINO for IMSTC 2020 can enhance and intensify the academic enthusiasm and interest of all members of AMSA-Indonesia. “Enhancing Collaboration, Influencing Community” Viva AMSA!

Dennis Ievan Hakim AMSA-Universitas Brawijaya 1st Winner of Scientific Paper Category

I participated in IMSTC because as I heard before that IMSTC is one of the incredible events held by AMSA which could improve your skill in academic and non-academic aspects. And also you can get novel information about current issues that are happening on a health basis. Moreover, I got trained in some specified skills such as making posters or videos which I was having no idea how to make them. Even more, we can meet all medical students from different places and sharing our thoughts and ideas thus increasing friendship and knowledge together. Not only limited to these, but we also could contribute to improving the health status of society by joining IMSTC activities. I do guarantee it is very worth it for you to join IMSTC. I already participate in IMSTC twice, 2019 and 2020. I was following all activities before in IMSTC 2019 but only half in 2020 due to other duties in another place. IMSTC is a very “worth to join” because you will get many benefits “in a package” that reflects the AMSA Vision namely “Knowledge, Action, Friendship”. And also, besides that the accommodation also well thus you have to join this event next year! For Scientific Paper, Discipline and motivation are number one. Having many ideas but with zero motivation and will to do the duty is vain. After you have to build the motivation, then everything will be as easy as riding on the highway, of course by the guidance of seniors and teachers that are good on Scientific Paper. Don’t forget to do the teamwork because you can not do everything as a single man-army in constructing scientific papers, especially if you have limited time added with very hectic campus activities

IMSTC is a national event that has always been awaited by AMSA members, including me. This national event has made an extraordinary and unforgettable experiences. Beside of being able to met with other AMSA members, here I also got a lot of training related to scientific world which is certainly very useful for the future. Moreover, this year IMSTC was held in Malang, so it’s very near to my hometown. Honestly, IMSTC this year’s preparation is arguably very short because from the beginning until the final process was very very close to the submission deadline. At first I felt that it would not be possible to submit my team’s work because it was only five days remaining and we hadn’t had finish it yet. But, from this I learned that if everything is done with full intention and determination also supported with high curiosity, then nothing is impossible to do. For those who are still hesitant to join, don’t be afraid to try because if you don’t try then you will never know. Take every opportunity because it doesn’t come twice. Viva AMSA!

Bagas Danadipa AMSA-Universitas Muhammadiyah Malang 1st Winner of Public Poster Category

I joined IMSTC because I wanted to learn and find experience to take part in the competitions at AMSA. I registered in the public poster contest because it is simple and not complicated, and I also like making posters. I am grateful that good luck came to my team and we qualified for the finals for the presentation. I was a little lacking in confidence because the other participants averaged 17 and 18, while I was a freshman. But I instilled in me the principle of “Nothing To Lose”. Nothing is impossible once again luck approached me and managed to become a champion one. The point is when we want to do something, don’t let us stress out about it. Try to always be happy and happy to do it.

Nitya Fithra Salsabila AMSA-Universitas Pembangunan Nasional “Veteran” Jakarta 1st Winner of Photography Category

IMSTC was my first national event. From the very first time joining amsa, I know I really wanted try one of the competitions held by AMSA. And finally, I got the chance to participate in IMSTC. When I saw my name on the mailing list, I was full of hesitation and doubts. But I realized that, at some point, I had to try and just do it! Despite feeling tense and nervous during half of the events, I had a really good time in IMSTC. Not only did I have fun, but I also got so much to learn from the trainings provided. It was one of the best experiences for me! For tips and trick, just go for it! Give the best you can do. Brainstorming is essential to explore ideas and let you think outside the box. Find something unique, authenticity should be your number one weapon. Also, being nervous is totally normal! but try your best to have it under control. I know that being outside of your comfort zone is scary, but it’s totally worth it! Also, they weren’t kidding when they say that hardwork never betrays the result.

Comprehensive Assessment of Full-face Helmet Utilization in Preventing Head and Neck Injury in Motorcycle Accidents : A Systematic Review 1

Dennis Ievan Hakim, 1John Thomas Rayhan Huwae, 1Emanuel Hananto 1

Asian Medical Student Association, Batch 2017 ABSTRACT

Introduction: Despite increasing effort and attention to reduce the burden of road traffic accidents, morbidity and mortality due to motorcycle accidents are still becoming the major problem that cannot be solved. From 1990 the most common cause of deaths due to motorcycle road accidents is not changed, namely due to head-facial and neck injuries. One of the simple ways to overcome this problem are using a helmet, but the types of helmet that confer best protection is not specified by many nation s policy. This review aimed to evaluate the best type of helmet in reducing the mortality and morbidity rate due to head-facial and cervical trauma. Material and Methods: A Systematic review evaluating the most prominent helm in conferring protection was carried out using PRISMA statement guidelines. Studies search were conducted using search engine ScienceDirect, ProQuest, and PUBMED database with criterion papers published in English between 2009 to 2019 and comparing full face, partial face, and open face helmet effectivity in confer protection. Appraisal tools of selected studies using Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (CEBM) appraisal tools. Result and Discussion : From the search, 1477 studies were identified and finally obtained 8 studies that fulfill the criterion of this systematic review. The studies are organized according to the comparison of full-face helmet with partial face helmet and full-face helmet with partial face helmet. Studies show that full-face helmet gives significant protection against head-facial and cervical injury. However, because many of the studies criteria are not uniformed, the need for further study with better quality is a must. Conclusion : Full-face helmet reduces head-facial and neck injuries better than other helmets in motorcycle accidents thus reducing the morbidity and mortality rate. Policy makers may need to specify the full-face helmet as the recommended helmet especially in low-middle income countries.

INTRODUCTION World Health Organization stated that every minute, three people are death worldwide due to road traffic accidents1. A Road traffic accident has still become unsolved problems and it is predicated as the most common cause of death in children and young productive adults (age 5-29 years) on a trauma basis thus causing a high burden in many aspects, especially in economic basis[1]. Moreover, the rate of events, and also the morbidity and mortality rates, keep increasing every year and it was known that it is three times higher in low-middle income countries than in high-income countries, especially in Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia[1,2]. In Indonesia, the mortality rate due to road traffic accidents from 2010 until 2014 are increasing with motorcycles are the most commonly used vehicle on the accidents (627.116 units or 70% from all of the vehicles used)[2]. These data are supported by empirical facts that motorcycles are the most commonly used vhicle in many low-middle income countries. From 1990 until 2018, the most common cause of deaths due to motorcycle road accidents is not changed[3]. Head and neck injuries were cause of death of more than 53% motorcycle accidents in the world and recent reports from Cochrane review also stating that craniocerebral, facial, and neck injuries were common too[3,4]. In Indonesia, Indonesian Health Department (DepKes) stated that head-cervical traumas related to motorcycle accidents were the most common cause of death (74%) followed by hip and lower limb traumas (10%)[2]. Based on these problems, factors which caused the high rate, morbidity, and mortality rate due to road traffic accidents, especially motorcycle-related, must be evaluated. Referring to the epidemiological triangle which is modified from Haddon s matrix, there are three main factors that are related to each other in determining the incidence of road accidents, namely agent (the human), host (vehicle factor), and environment (the road)[5]. In low-middle income countries, and also supported by data on Indonesia, undisciplined behavior is the leading cause of the incidence, morbidity, and mortality rate increase in road accidents and the commonest undisciplined behavior that still being neglected in Indonesia is the usage of helmet[2,5]. One of the effective preventive strategies of motorcycle accident severity is to use a helmet while riding motorcycle due to its protective effect on death and head injuries based on Cochrane review with OR 0.58 and 0.31, respectively[4]. There are three common types of the helmet that are currently approved by SNI (Standart Nasional Indonesia), namely full-face, open face, and partial face helmet. But the law in many countries, including Indonesia, is not specifying the types of helmet[6]. Whereas a 1 5


case-control based review conducted by Lam, et al in Taiwan shows that the types of helmet that are used by the motorcyclist does influence the outcome of the motorcycle accidents patients including the rate of head-facial fracture and cervical spine injury compared to nonhelmet user (OR = 0.19, 95% CI and OR = 0.35%, 95% CI respectively) [7]. Based on these problems, we have an initiation to find which helmet is the best to overcome the high morbidity and mortality rate due to motorcycle accidents with an idea stated on a systematic review. This study aimed to review what is the best helmet type to prevent head and cervical injuries in motorcycle accidents thus could support and determine the best helmet type that may be documented and implemented in the helmet law, especially in low middle-income countries such as Indonesia. MATERIAL AND METHODS A systematic review of large observational studies comparing the protective effect of full-face, open face, and partial face helmet against head-facial and cervical traumas in motorcycle road accidents was carried out using the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) statement rules. We searched works of literature published in Pubmed, ScienceDirect, and ProQuest databases with keyword motorcycle accident (s), helmet, head injury (s), cervical injury (s) and only papers published in English from 2009 until 2019 which are included. The eligible studies were 1) those which are comparing the full-face helmet with other types of the helmet (open face, and partial face) on motorcyclists who had traffic accidents 2) the outcomes of studies involved head-facial and cervical injuries (including spinal cord injuries). We appraised eight Selected studies by using the Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (CEBM) appraisal tools. The literature selections were summarized in Figure 1.

RESULT From 1477 published papers from Pubmed, ScienceDirect, and ProQuest databases, we include 1154 studies because the other studies are not published in English and published below 2009. Of those, we finally include eight eligible and valid studies because of the other studies discussing other topics besides the comparison of full-face, open face, and partial face helmet in preventing head-facial and cervical injuries, unsuitable study design, studies not found, and study duplication. The final eligible and valid studies (n=8) then were reviewed here and the results were summarized in Table 1. Table 1.

Full-face Helmet Versus Partial Face Helmet This systematic review comparing the effectivity of the full-face helmet and many types of helmet, one of them is a partial type helmet[7,8,11,13]. There were four studies from Malaysia, Taiwan, United States comparing the full-face helmet against partial type helmet. The output evaluated were head and neck injuries (Table 1). Overall, using full-face helmet compared to a partial helmet could reduce the incidences of cervical and head injuries by 17% compared to four prior studies that evaluated here (95% CI p-value <0.001). And also, all of the participants that are included were aged more than 17 years old and only include the rider of the motorcycle, which has a high risk to cause face and cervical injuries[1]. A study from Lam, et al stated that using a full-face helmet could reduce the chance of having intracranial hemorrhage and brain concussion. The study from Ramly evaluated the significant factors related to crash injuries on faces which will be discussed later. The disadvantages of the data collected were lacking

participants and the majority of studies are case-control which has a high chance of participants bias[7,8,11,13]. The summary can be evaluated in Table 2 (on attatchment). Full-face Helmet Versus Open Face Helmet On the comparison between a full-face helmet with open face helmet, this paper reviewed five observational publications with study settings conducted in Brazil, United States, and Korea[9,10,11,12,14]. The outcome that was evaluated from these studies including head-facial injuries, cervical injuries, and traumatic brain injuries. From this review, it is stated that using a full-face helmet could reduce the incidences of head-facial and neck trauma 24.26% better than using an open face helmet (95% CI p-value <0.005). The prominent of studies included were all of the studies taken is a cohort-based studies with the five latest year publication that were included[9,10,11,12,14]. The setting of the studies also variates from countries with many setting of the event thus the validity of helm use in preventing motorcycle accidents has better external validity. The weakness of the studies was conducted with few subjects and some studies that included in the cohort are only patients who have been admitted to the hospital that cooperate with the researcher. The summary can be evaluated in Table 3 (on attatchment). DISCUSSION Road traffic accidents until now still become unsolved problems, and most of the incidences are caused by motorcycle accidents, especially in low-middle income countries worldwide[1,2]. Many actions can be done to overcome the burden of these problems and based on the current review, using a helmet is one of the best ways to reduce the morbidity and mortality rate of motorcycle accidents[4]. Here, we reviewed the best helm that can be used to reduce the burden of motorcycle accidents. This review of large observational studies found that the overall full-face helmet is the most prominent to prevent head and cervical injuries in motorcycle accidents[7-14]. The Fullface helmet could ameliorate the outcomes of the victim compared to other helmet types of helmet either in preventing fracture or brain-spinal cord injuries. But, it does not mean that the full-face helmet did not have disadvantages. Lam, et al stated that a full-face helmet is heavier thus cause discomfort[7]. The Full-face helmet also reduces the eye view of the rider compared to the other helmet. The main finding of this systematic review is that a full-face helmet was better than either partial or open face helmet in preventing head-facial and cervical injuries of motorcycle riders on accident. The risks of head-facial and cervical injuries (including

neurological deficit) were lower by 17% when compared with partial helmet and 24.26% when compared with open face helmet[7-14]. The reason why a full-face helmet could confer better protection, especially in head injuries, is that three causative factors determining the prognosis of motorcycle-related accidents are helmet wearing, helmet fixation status and visor damage[8]. It is highlighted that helmet fixation is a stronger predictor in determining the head injury than helmet types. Usage of the full-face helmet could prevent dislodgement due to its effect in fixating the head of the user. The problems arising from these cases are the removal of the full-face helmet may be harder and causes discomfort due to more heat and moisture in tropical countries, such as Indonesia[8]. Moreover, it needs support from the government in promoting and cutting the cost of the full-face helmet, especially in low-middle income countries to prevent more burden caused by disability or death due to motorcycle accidents. There were some limitations to this review. First, the outcome criterion was not uniformed in the comparison between all helmet due to different specific types of head-facial and neck injuries. Second, the eligible participants vary among studies based on inclusion and exclusion criteria and there was still no study conducted in Indonesia, which is one of the main aims in this review implementations. Our findings are in agreement and consistent with previous literature comparing the protective effect between full-face, partial, and open face helmet conducted by Liu, et al on 2008 published on Cochrane review[4]. This systematic review suggests that using a full-face helmet offer the best solutions to overcome high morbidity and mortality rate due to head-facial and cervical trauma due to its protective advantages[4]. By implementing the law of using fullface helmet, namely in Indonesia, we are one step closer to achieve sustainable development goals for road safety (SDGs), namely good health and well-being by halving the number of global deaths and injuries from road traffic crashes and sustainable cities and communities by providing access to safe, affordable, accessible, and sustainable and safe transport system for all[1]. CONCLUSION In General, this review conclude that full-face helmet reduce head-facial and neck injuries better than other helmets in motorcycle accidents thus reducing the morbidity and mortality rate. Policy markers may need to specify the full-face helmet as the recommended helmet especially in low-middle income countries. 7 11

Effectiveness of Novel Trauma Scoring Systems in Predicting Survival of Patients with Traumatic Injury: A Systematic Review Azyumar Luthfi Muhammad Alfariz, Wahyuda Nuzul Fahmi, Rivo Junieta Alicia

Introduction: Trauma still becomes the main concern in the medical field to reduce its number and increase patients survival. To objectify this goal, trauma scoring systems were invented. One of them is the Revised Trauma Score (RTS). In the last decade, a better scoring, MGAP (Mechanism, Glasgow Coma Scale, Age, and Arterial Blood Pressure) and GAP (Glasgow Coma Scale, Age, and Arterial Blood Pressure), start to replace RTS in use. This systematic review aims to compare the effectivity of novel trauma scoring system, MGAP or GAP, with RTS or TRTS to predict the survival of patients with a traumatic injury. Materials and Methods: This systematic review is organized according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) Statement 2009 Checklist and applied Population, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcome (PICO) approach. The databases used are Scopus, PubMed, ScienceDirect, ClinicalKey, EBSCOhost, and PMC by using specific keywords. The risk of bias was assessed using the JBI Systematic Reviews Checklist for Case Series and Cohort Studies. Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine Level of Evidence was used to determine the level of evidence of the studies. Results and Discussion: Searches yielded 41 studies, 8 studies met the inclusion criteria. There were 3 prospective studies and 5 retrospective studies. The studies evaluated in correlation with in-hospital and prehospital mortality, mortality and severity prediction accuracy, and discrimination ability. 6 studies showed MGAP had the highest AUC compare to GAP, RTS, and T-RTS. MGAP and GAP showed no significant differences in performance. Conclusion: MGAP and GAP have better performance than RTS statistically in prehospital and in-hospital mortality and severity. This score potentially provides a more feasible mean of estimating injury severity in low-middle income countries, further validation required to applicate the score.

EFFECTIVENESS OF NOVEL TRAUMA SCORING SYSTEMS IN PREDICTING SURVIVAL OF PATIENTS WITH TRAUMATIC INJURY: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW

Authors: Azyumar Luthfi Muhammad Alfariz Wahyuda Nuzul Fahmi Rivo Junieta Alicia

A. INTRODUCTION Trauma is one of the leading causes of death in adolescents and adults worldwide. It still becomes the main concern in the medical field to reduce its number and increasing patient's survival. According to Jassy (2016), "In Indonesia, trauma placed 4th as a cause of death overall, while at age group 15-25 years old trauma placed first." 1 Nur Yuniarti2 reported in her publication that the death rate caused by trauma projected to increase from 5.1 million to 8.4 million and estimated to place 3rd in Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) in 2020 worldwide. To improve the survival of all patients with traumatic injuries, a scoring system to grade the severity of the injury introduced since 1969. The first one is known as the Abbreviated Injury Score (AIS) and acts as the basis of the new Injury Severity Score (ISS) later on. Up until now, three groups of Trauma Scoring System has identified. Those are anatomic scores which include AIS and ISS, physiologic scores such as RTS and T-RTS, and combined scores such as TRISS.3 One of the most popular trauma scoring systems that often used in assessing patients pre-hospital and in-hospital is the Revised Trauma Score (RTS). The assessment components of the RTS are the Glasgow Coma Scale, Systolic blood pressure, and respiratory rate. The triage version of RTS, T-RTS, adds coded value for each assessment component.4 However, Kondo et al.5 reported that the calculation of RTS is too complicated for easy use in ED and not reliable enough when used by paramedics. Moreover, the assessment of respiratory rate is less reliable than other factors because it is influenced by the patient s age, mechanism of injur , and mechanical ventilation. The problem also goes when T-RTS used although it offers easier use.5 In the last decade, two new trauma scoring systems introduced to replace the RTS and T-RTS. Those two new scores are MGAP (Mechanism, Glasgow Coma Scale, Age, and Arterial Blood Pressure) developed by Sartorius et al6 and GAP (Glasgow Coma Scale, Age, and Arterial Blood Pressure) developed by Kondo et al5. As the name stands, both MGAP and GAP assess the awareness of the patients through GCS, age, and also the arterial/systolic blood pressure. In MGAP, it adds the mechanism of trauma to the assessment. Because of its novelty, both scoring systems still rarely used to assess the severity of the injury caused by trauma. Several systematic reviews had conducted in the past regarding trauma scoring systems. There is one systematic review that correlates well with this systematic

16


review. That systematic review offers an evaluation summarize of physiologic score measures that can be used in emergency situation.7 Although has a close correlation, this review has a different aim with the previous one. This systematic review aims to compare the effectivity of novel trauma scoring system, MGAP or GAP, with RTS or T-RTS to predict the survival of patients with traumatic injury. B. MATERIALS AND METHODS Protocol and Registration This review is organized according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) Statement 2009 Checklist.8 The checklist will be shown in appendix I. Eligibility Criteria and Outcomes The most following intervention study types included are retrospective and prospective studies. This systematic review applied Population, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcome (PICO) approach.9 The population included were patients with traumatic injuries in all ages. This intervention used the MGAP or GAP scoring system as an intervention to assess patients with trauma. GAP is the modification of the MGAP scoring system. The comparison used the RTS or T-RTS. MGAP or GAP and RTS or T-RTS were chosen because they are at the same cluster that is a physiological scoring system for predicting the outcomes for trauma patients, not anatomical. The outcomes included in this review were mortality rate, death, and survival or prognosis prediction. Information Sources This systematic review performed extensive literature searching in the following databases: Scopus, PubMed, ScienceDirect, ClinicalKey, EBSCOhost, and PMC using keywords protocol: ("Traffic Accident" or "Road Injury" or "Trauma") AND ("MGAP Score" or "GAP Score" or "Glasgow Coma Scale, Age, Arterial Blood Pressure") AND ("RTS" or "Revised Trauma Score") AND ("Mortality" or "Mortality Rate" or "Prognosis") in advanced search fields at several databases except for ScienceDirect and Clinical Key. The keywords used for the latter are ("MGAP score" OR "GAP score") AND "Revised Trauma Score AND "Trauma". Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria

17


The search results were downloaded and were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The inclusion criteria used in our literature searching were retrospective or prospective study, the patients in the study were all trauma injury, the study compares MGAP or GAP to RTS or T-RTS. The exclusions criteria were: study that more than ten years, not correlated to the aim of this study and study that did not use the English. Data Collection and Assessment From all studies we obtained from literature searching, we excluded several studies that not relevant to the inclusion criteria but relevant to the exclusion area by reading the abstract and assessed them for relevance. The duplicated studies were excluded too. Studies identified as potentially relevant were retrieved and read the full text. The study that not correlated with the aim of our study excluded and the others were used in this review. The data that were explained in each study were extracted by PICO characteristics in this systematic review. Almost all of the studies that we reviewed to compare the quality and effectiveness between MGAP or GAP and RTS or T-RTS by using the data of sensitivity, specificity, AUROC (Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristics Curve), and p-value. Literature Screening and Quality appraisal This review used the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (OCEBM) Level of Evidence to determine the level of evidence of the studies. According to Baldwin, et al.10, OCEBM provides a popular scale for stratifying evidence from strongest to weakest on the basis of susceptibility to bias and the quality of the study design. The risk of bias in individual studies was assessed using the JBI (Joanna Briggs Institute) Systematic Reviews Checklist for Case Series and Cohort Studies, the results of the assessment are shown in Appendix II. JBI approach was recommended to critical appraisal, study selection, data extraction, and data synthesis.11 Due to the different nature of these studies, no assessment of the risk of bias across studies was considered. No additional analyses were performed. RESULTS Study Selection

The electronic searching yielded 41 articles. Of these 41 articles, only 24 articles considered to fulfill the inclusion criteria. 11 duplicate studies were excluded next and 5 more studies also excluded the latter judged not having the same aim as our

18


systematic review. The complete process could be seen in figure 1. Full study characteristics reports are shown in table 1 below and assessment for bias for included reports is shown in appendix II.

Table 1. Summary of Studies Characteristics

Study Characteristics


Interpretation: According to the table above, the study design from eight studies, four studies are case series, three studies are retrospective cohort, and one study is a prospective cohort. The pvalues <0,001 show that there is needed a significant difference between the MGAP or GAP score and the RTS or T-RTS score. According to the AUC, it was found that the MGAP or GAP score was better in scoring trauma injury compared to the RTS or T-RTS score. Based on its sensitivity shows that MGAP has the highest sensitivity level then followed by GAP, and RTS has the lowest sensitivity compared to MGAP and GAP. Based on the specificity, it was found that RTS or T-RTS was more specificity than MGAP and GAP. In the conclusion of this reviewed 8 articles above, it was found that MGAP and GAP were more effective in predicting patient survival in cases of trauma injury. DISCUSSION Summary of Evidence

Not all studies include GAP, MGAP, RTS, and T-RTS as the variable. Three of four studies that compare all these variables showed GAP and MGAP significantly better than RTS and T-RTS, while MGAP compares to GAP showed no significant result.12,16,19 Studies that compare one of these variables with other scoring systems showed either GAP or MGAP had better predicting ability in prehospital and inhospital mortality.13,14,15,18 GAP, MGAP, RTS, and T-RTS also showed good performance in predicting in-hospital mortality by assessed the physiology of the patient. The physiology components were easily assessed, but in particular condition, this could not be done. Missed data such as respiration rate, which was used in the calculation of RTS or T-RTS score, could affect the analysis. Some studies also showed incomplete data for some variables and analyze the subjects based on the data they have, but some studies also used imputation to robust their data despite the missed data.16,18 Further study to be required with complete data to analyze all variables to avoid sampling bias. Physiological scoring systems such as GAP, MGAP, RTS, and T-RTS potentially provide a more feasible mean of estimating injury severity in low-middle income countries using readily available clinics.17 Measurement of the component

21


such as vital signs still occurred at the time of hospital, not at that time after injury, so the validation and assessment of the physiological scoring systems first required to be done in low-middle income countries before being applied.18 In high-income countries, the limitation of RTS or T-RTS scoring system can occur due to intervention to the patient before scoring, such as sedation or intubation which affect the measurement of GCS. While GAP and MGAP approach their performance accurately in high-income countries.17 Limitation In this study review, there were two kinds of study, retrospective and prospective study. In the prospective study, patients data collected and measure at a particular time. In the retrospective study, some studies used a monocentric study, while others were multicentric study. Not all the studies compare GAP, MGAP, RTS, and T-RTS in one study, but just compare one of them with other severity scores. Some retrospective studies missed data for calculating severity score due to received data from the trauma center in this study could not obtain all variables needed for score calculation. Some studies imputed the data to keep the robustness of the statistical result, only one study did not impute the data which may result in sampling bias.17 Conclusion GAP, MGAP, RTS, and T-RTS all had good performance in severity or mortality prediction. But in comparison, GAP and MGAP had better performance than RTS or TRTS statistically. The application of GAP, MGAP, RTS, T-RTS must be first validated to the health system in Indonesia. GAP and MGAP most probably can be adapted in a traumatic management system in Indonesia. The studies we found still in low-level evidence for Indonesia. Further study needs to be conducted in Indonesia setting. FUNDING This systematic review is self-funded. REFERENCES Ranti J, Sapan H, Kalesaran L.

ABSTRACT Introduction In many low until middle-income countries, 30% until 86% trauma cases are caused by traffic accidents. Traffic accidents are the eighth largest cause of death in the world. According to the data from Headquarters of the Republic of Indonesia National police Traffic Corps (2013), 56% of traffic accidents involve driver without a license. It can be concluded that ownership of a driving license does affect driving safety and traffic accidents. Based on that problem, it is required to explore the possible use of readable driver’s license to prevent drivers without a license using the vehicle. Materials and Method The literature review was conducted using ProQuest, EBSCOhost, and Garba Rujukan Digital (Garuda) database to identify literatures that fit our topic. Key words that we use to search the literatures are: “readable” AND “driver’s license”; “driver’s license” AND “technology”; “traffic accident” AND “prevention” AND “technology”; “safety ride” AND “technology”; “Surat Izin Mengemudi”. Articles were included if they provide correlated and detailed information to this paper. Result and Discussion After searching for literatures, 12 journals that are relevant to the purpose of our study were obtained. Traffic accident prevention technology has been developed well. So far, there is no technology that can prevent driver without driver’s license to drive his vehicle. Readable driver’s license has been applied abroad with various technology applications. Readable driver license has also been applied in Indonesia to store driver’s data.

25


Conclusion There is no technology to prevent unlicensed driver from driving his vehicle, and readable driver’s license has not been applied as a traffic accident prevention technology. Readable driver’s license actually has a great potential as a traffic accident-causing trauma prevention technology. Readable driver’s license scanner can be connected to a vehicle engine, so the vehicle can only be activated if the driver has a license. .

Introduction A. Back Ground In many low until middle-income countries, between 30% until 86% trauma cases are caused by traffic accidents1. In United State, traffic accidents are the third leading cause of traumatic brain injury. From 2.8 million patients suffering traumatic brain injury, 383,293 patients were affected by brain trauma due to traffic accidents2. Traffic accidents are the eighth largest cause of death in the world3. Traffic accident number in Indonesia is raising significantly. In 2009 there were 62,960 cases of traffic accidents, in 2010 it increased to 109,319 and in 2011 there were 109,776 cases4. According to the data from Headquarters of the Republic of Indonesia National Police Traffic Corps (2013), 56% of traffic accidents involve drivers who do not have a drive

license5. It such a high number percentage and it's

very concerning because in Indonesia there is a regulation of driving license ownership before driving, namely Pasal 77 ayat (1) Undang-undang Nomor 22 Tahun 2009 concerned on Traffic and Road Transportation. Based on research, drivers who have a driving license also prioritize driving safety more than drivers who do not have a driving license6. It can be concluded that Ownership of a driving license does affect driving safety and traffic accidents. Based on that problem, it is required to explore the possible use of eadable d i e

Abstract Introduction: Traumatic brain injury is one of the most prevalent traumas and can cause mortality in 30% patients and mortality in 50% patients. In recent years, studies regarding the prognostic value of S100B in traumatic brain injuries has been conducted. Objective: this systematic review aims to evaluate the feasibility and prognostic value of S100B in patients with moderate or severe traumatic brain injury. Methods: This review selects studies found by database searching systematically using previously determined inclusion, such as cohort or RCT studies, moderate to severe traumatic brain injury patients, have outcome predictors, and have serum S100B data, and exclusion criteria, such as pediatric patients and studies published over 10 years. This review was arranged based on PRISMA guideline. Results: From the 5 studies reviewed that were done in 5 countries, S100B level is proven to be strongly correlated to the outcome of traumatic brain injury compared to CT scan as the gold standard in traumatic brain injury prognosis. Conclusion: This review has proven that S100B has a significant correlation with the outcome of traumatic brain injury patients, therefore S100B level can be considered as a promising prognostic value of traumatic brain injury outcome.

Introduction Traumatic injury is a health problem that is increasing significantly throughout the world. Around 5.8 million people die each year from injury and this accounts for 10% of world deaths where the mortality rate is 32% higher than the number of deaths from malaria, tuberculosis and HIV / AIDS. Globally, the three main causes of death from trauma injuries are traffic accidents, homicide, and suicide. In 2030, trauma due to accidents is expected to increase significantly which is the fifth leading cause of death in the world, suicide at 12th, and homicide on 16th. Accidents that cause trauma have life-threatening consequences, this can occur anywhere and at any time and there is a deliberate factor. This accident is an accident that requires immediate life-saving treatment to prevent disability. This first aid is an intervention that can be done by someone with or without medical equipment. Materials and Method We searched e-database (PubMed, Google Schoolar, and Research Gate) to conduct this literature and systematic review. While screening the title, abstract and full-text eligibility there are 5 journal that meet the full criteria. Results and Discussion In this study we can found there

Introduction Traumatic injury is a health problem that is increasing significantly throughout the world.(1) Around 5.8 million people die each year from injury and this accounts for 10% of world deaths where the mortality rate is 32% higher than the number of deaths from malaria, tuberculosis and HIV / AIDS. Not only mortality, there are several thousand people injured and many of them with permanent sequelae. Traumatic injuries greatly affect the socio-economic level which accounts for 16% of the global disease burden.(1)(2) Globally, the three main causes of death from trauma injuries are traffic accidents, homicide, and suicide. In 2030, trauma due to accidents is expected to increase significantly which is the fifth leading cause of death in the world, suicide at 12th, and homicide on 16th.(2)

Accidents that cause trauma have life-threatening consequences, this can occur anywhere and at any time and there is a deliberate factor. This accident is an accident that requires immediate life-saving treatment to prevent disability. This first aid is an intervention that can be done by someone with or without medical equipment. (3) If a person who is traumatized does not immediately receive first aid, his condition will worsen and will affect their future health, quality of life, or even lead to death. (4) Therefore, it is important to have basic knowledge about first aid.

The Efficacy of Blood Transfusion in Damage Control Resuscitation (DCR) As a Non Invasive Life Saving Procedure for Severely Hemorrhagic Patients

Introduction Injuries contribute to around 10% of total deaths and 15% of disability-adjusted lifeyears. Road traffic injuries (RTIs) place a huge burden on the health sector in terms of prehospital care, acute care, and rehabilitation. According to WHO, RTIs are the sixth leading cause of deaths in India with a greater share of hospitalizations, deaths, disabilities and socioeconomic losses in young and middle-age populations.1 According to Indonesia Health Profile 2017, during 2017 out of 2,263 monitored incidents, 198 were recorded as health crisis incidents due to disasters and potential disasters. Health crisis due to natural disasters was the most frequent incident in Indonesia in 2017 with a percentage of 72%. The remaining 27% were non-natural disasters, and only 1% of all disasters was included in social disasters.2 The concept of the distribution of mortality after injury along a chronological axis was initially characterized by Trunkey based on his experience and research in his seminal work describing the trimodal distribution of trauma death. This distribution of death after traumatic injury is classically described with death occurring during immediate, early, and late time frames after injury. Ea

occur within the first few hours after injury.

During this early interval, frequently injured patients have survived a period long enough to receive care from emergency medical services and hospitals. Most deaths in this time interval can be attributed to major CNS injuries or hemorrhage. As little can be done to ameliorate the effects of primary CNS injury, clinical efforts are directed toward optimization of brain perfusion and minimizing secondary brain injury.3 Assuming these tenets, the mortality of injured patients who succumb to CNS injury is largely not preventable. On the other hand, some of the deaths secondary to hemorrhage during this interval are potentially preventable and highlight opportunities to advance medical interventions and trauma systems. The interval between injury and definitive control of the focus of bleeding is most critical for this group of injured patients. The third

subsequent days to weeks.4 Most of the deaths occur due to poor decision and inappropriate interventions. An estimated 10-20% of these deaths are potentially preventable with better control of bleeding. Early hemorrhage within 6 h after incurring an injury emerged as the biggest cause of preventable deaths. This has led trauma teams to investigate whether the change in practice could help reduce early mortality after severe trauma.4 Damage control resuscitation (DCR) is a systematic approach to the management of the trauma patient with severe injuries that starts in the emergency room and continues through the operating room and the intensive care unit (ICU). Damage control resuscitation (DCR) is a strategy for resuscitating patients from hemorrhagic shock to rapidly restore homeostasis. DCS is now incorporated as a component of DCR. DCR as a structured intervention begins immediately after rapid initial assessment in the emergency room and progresses through the operating theater into the ICU in combination with DCS.5 DCR strategies consists of 5 stages

: body rewarming, strictive fluid administration, permissive hypotension, balanced blood product administration, and the implementation of massive transfusion protocols.6 Efforts are focused on blood product transfusion with whole blood or component therapy closely approximating whole blood, limited use of crystalloid to avoid dilutional coagulopathy, hypotensive resuscitation until bleeding control is achieved, empiric use of tranexamic acid, prevention of acidosis and hypothermia, and rapid definitive surgical control of bleeding. In this study, we focus on the using of blood in resuscitation. According to recent studies, the plasma is beneficial in correcting coagulopathy.20 Therefore, this study aimed to explain why the use of plasma in DCR is beneficial on severe hemorrhage patients.

Result and Discussion The traditional view of resuscitation is focussed on fulfilling the loss of volume rather than the clotting process itself. The use of crystalloid or colloid fluid can b

replace

the loss of coagulation factors that has been reduced by the blood loss. Thus, this will increase the mortality rate of the patient with sever haemorrhagic condition. The mortality rate associated with Acute Trauma Coagulopathy (ATC) is increasing along with ISS (Injury Severity Score) (Figure 1). Recent study that has been conducted by Holcomb JB et al found the evidence of the primary trial outcomes of mortality at 24 hours and 30 days were obtained on 100% and 99.4% of patients, respectively. No significant differences in mortality were detected at 24 hours (12.7% in 1:1:1 a

In this retrospective study, the survival of patients receiving FFPs in a 1:8 ratio compared to PRBCs was dramatically higher than those receiving FFPs in a 1:1.4 ratio (92.5% vs 37%, p < 0.001).21

Pre-hospital Care or the first 20 minutes after injury has the goal to get the patient to the trauma center by Sc

&R

while minimizing the fluid resuscitation and

preventing hypothermia. After succeeding the Pre-hospital Care the next goal at the emergency room is to mobilize promptly to interventional radiology suite (IR suite) then proceed to operating room (OR) if needed for less than 30 minutes while doing so we have to allow permissive hypotension and administer blood & blood products early to start massive transfusion protocol (MTP) with minimum fluid resuscitation. We then can start the

76


abbreviated surgical procedure for less than 90 minutes with the goals to control surgical bleeding and contamination by maintaining MTP and adding abdominal packing with temporary abdominal closure. The next step after the procedure is to do observation at the intensive care unit for 12-36 hours with the goals to resuscitate and reverse the lethal triad of trauma while supporting hemodynamic. Definitive surgical procedure will be done to make definitive surgical repair and serial primary abdominal closer after taking of the abdominal packing. Last step of this procedure is to decrease fluid overload to allow definitive abdominal closure and postoperative liberation from the ventilator in the intensive care stay. (Figures 2)

Worsening of hypotension and acidosis due to peripheral vasodilatation could be prevented by rewarming the torso before the extremities. There are three stages of body rewarming depending on the rate of of rewarming needed, and the severity of patient hypothermia : passive external rewarming, active external rewarming, and active internal core rewarming.7 Although the historic practice of

recent studies has found results of aggressive fluid resuscitation conduce worsening in coagulopathy, thrombocytopenia, multiple organ failure and thus, the current evidence strongly suggest the minimization of intravenous fluid usage in haemorrhagic patients.8-13 Acting as the centre of DCR, permissive hypotension is a stage which delayed the initiation of fluid resuscitation and limit the volume of resuscitation fluids/blood products administered to the bleeding trauma patient by targeting a lower than normal blood pressure.6 The patient

effect, which occurs when the fresh and unstable clot sealing a vascular laceration is dislodged when the intravascular pressure increases14, and restricting the volume of resuscitative fluids relates to the amelioration of the inflammatory cascade, which is exacerbated in response to exogenous fluids administration. Balanced blood product administration in haemorrhagic patients has shown results of augmentation of coagulation factors, lower chance of exacerbation of dilutional coagulopathy, and less bleeding. Early administration of blood products in addition to packed red blood cells (PRBCs) can help prevent trauma-related coagulopathy once the patient is recognize to have massive haemorrhage. The aim is to give approximately 1:1:1 ratio of PRBC : FFP : Platelets.

And the last main pillar of DCR is massive blood transfusion which typically uses 10 or more PRBCs in the first 24 hours of injury. Massive transfusion protocol (MTP) ideally

77


created by joined efforts of the trauma, emergency room, and blood bank teams, and should clearly address the several critical steps whereas according to current evidence of a multicentre study of major trauma centres found that only 1.7% of admitted trauma patients require massive transfusion.15 The prompt activation of a MTP in a recognized patient needing massive transfusion not only leads to a more systematic, efficient, timely, and balanced delivery of blood and blood products, but can also result in overall less use of blood and improved patient outcomes and survival. (Figures 3)

Conclusion The successful resuscitation of the massively bleeding and unstable trauma patient will depend on effective trauma team leadership, identification of early traumarelated coagulopathy, sound decision-making in the emergency and operating rooms . DCR methods to resuscitate correcting coagulopathy and has shown to improve the chances of survival in the exsanguinating trauma patient by reversing the lethal trias of death (trauma) by including permissive hypotension, body rewarming, minimization of fluid resuscitation, and early balanced administration of blood and blood products.

Group Counselling as Rehabilitation Care for Individual with Childhood Trauma Related to Neuroendocrine Response: A Literature Review Farida Aisyah

Abstract Introduction Trauma is experience as result of events happen in individual as emotionally or physically harmful also has lasting detrimental effect on the individual

f nc i ning and

physical, emotional, spiritual, and social. Trauma in children is unique because children can t verbalize their reaction toward dangerous event and lack of understanding traumatic event. Prevalence of child abuse happen to be 1 in 5 women and 1 in 13 men. Adult with childhood trauma tend to having smaller amygdala, hippocampus, mPFC, and higher secretion of cortisol which lead to many detrimental impact on decrease their quality of life. Group counselling could be solution for adult with childhood trauma related to neuroendocrine response. Materials and Methods This literature review used data by Tourigny et al, compared experimental group vs control group. Control group consist of 15 female without group counselling and experimental group consist 27 female having group counselling, both group have same variable trauma experience as child. Group counselling consist 6-8 participant with 2 therapist as leader, compose 20 weekly meeting for 2 hour with main focus relate disclosure to abuse. Measurement in this study using 2 wave, pre-test and post-test by questionnaire. Result and Discussion There is no significant difference between experimental group and control group related to eating disorder, self-harming, and father relationship cause of low frequency of these behaviour in early therapy. Other, show significant result in experimental group at level of PTSS, coping, relationship with mother, internalizing and externalizing behavioural problems, and empowerment because counselling focus on intrusive thought,

83


exercise on understanding cycles of sexual abuse, and consequences of sexual. Experimental group show less stressor than control group, which lead to good neuroendocrine response. Conclusion Group counselling show effective impact towards adult with childhood trauma related to neuroendocrine response.

ell-being,

and social.1 There is a varied type of traumas including Natural and Human-Caused Trauma, natural trauma such as tornado and avalanche yet human-caused trauma divided into accident and technological catastrophes such as train derailment and structural collapse also into intentional act, such as homicides and suicides or sexual assault and abuse, other type of trauma are based on number of people effected by the event, divided into individual, group or mass trauma.1 Prevalence of trauma appeared to be 16.3-27.1% is Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in case of 12 months post-injury, 24.0-24.6% is Acute Stress Disorder (ASD) for <1 week post injury, other study by World Health Organization (WHO) show trauma of unexpected death of loved one contribute 31.4%, direct exposure as witnessing death or fatal injury were 23.7%, muggings were 14.5%, life-threatening automobile accident were 14.0%, physical violence were 22.9%, intimate partner sexual violence were 14.0%, life-threating illness were 11.8%, and other trauma were 8.4%.2,3 Impact of trauma commonly chronic and hard to cope, such as nightmare, chronic stress, depression, isolation from society, sleep disorder, induced selfharm, hard to concentrate, and individual with trauma in their childhood have high recidivism to do maltreatment to other individual.4,5 With chronic impact, children in their growth and developmental years a long with traumatic event should have more consideration. Trauma happen in pediatric or early lifehood stress (ELS) not alone as they experience threated event by themselves also when child witnesses threated event. 6 Children trauma is unique because children in age range 0-6 years old can not verbalize their reaction toward dangerous event yet those threating event will create new fear in them resulting in re-enact the event,6,7 Lack of understanding traumatic event between the causative and the effect making children only believe of what they see and their own thought, other than those, children trauma is unique because children can not anticipate danger and how to safe themselves, they still depend on adult one. 7 Prevalence of childhood maltreatment by Devi et al show 59.1% were emotional abuse and 54% were physical neglect other prevalence by WHO show quarter of all adults reported having been physically abused as children also 1 in 5 women and 1 in 13 men reported having been sexually abused as child, common type of childhood trauma stressor such as domestic violence, emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, internet harass, bullying,

natural disaster, interpersonal loss like parental mental illness, parental divorce, or parental death.8,9,10 Childhood trauma may result on intrusive thought of repetitive play or traumaspecific re-enactment(s) and compulsive rituals such as hearing voice saying threatening perpetrator/auditory hallucinations, high risk of personality disorder, alcohol dependence, and nicotine dependence in future, depression, and individual with childhood trauma tend to avoid society resulting in emotional numbing and diminished interest in other, lack of empathy, comorbid dysthymia, and increase risk of self-mutilation, past studies by Charney et al show childhood maltreatment effect as hyperarousal symptoms consist of difficulty to sleep and to concentrate, irritable mood or angry outburst, hypervigilance, and exaggerated startle response.11,12,13 Explanation about those effect correlate neuroendocrine system include hormone secretion and brain development with region of interest (ROIs) were hippocampus, amygdala, and mPFC (medial prefrontal gyrus and anterior cingulate gyrus).

14-20 As describe before, trauma effect commonly chronic hence if trauma happen in childhood era it will impact as long as their growth and development year. Brain development of adult with childhood trauma or maltreatment show significantly decrease volume of hippocampus, evidence about decrease volume of hippocampus more consistent in adult rather than in children with same trauma in their childhood era.14 Around hippocampus in medial temporal lobe, the amygdala, also has correlation with childhood trauma hence the finding about amygdala and childhood trauma are less consistent, some studies report bigger volume amygdala or smaller volume amygdala of adult with childhood trauma, some report also said there is no volume difference between individual with and without childhood trauma.

Volumetric increase in amygdala like dendritic arborisation in amygdala nuclei have been reported in adult with childhood trauma exposure yet structural neuroimaging related to amygdala volume in human have been ambiguous, nonetheless recent study by McEwen and Mehta et al show brain alteration in humans during initial episodes of major depression where amygdala tend to increase in volume and hyperactivity further this hyperactivity eventually shrinkage and become smaller amygdalae after repetitive depressive episodes.16,21,22

Other than amygdala, hippocampus development should counted to, hippocampus play main role as neurobiological stress system with protracted ontogeny and high glucocorticoid receptor making hippocampus exposed to the effect of trauma.23 Chronic trauma such childhood maltreatment associated with decreased grey matter volume in right hippocampus and has negative impact on normative pattern of development.14,23 Hippocampus is heterogeneous region as structure and function hence it is feasible that trauma affects certain structure of some hippocampus subregions, such as cornu ammonis (CA), dentate gyrus, etc.23 Later, mPFC also show reduction volume up to 7.2% in individual with childhood trauma.20

Media Prefrontal Cortex Region Showing 7.2% Reduction in Individual with Childhood Trauma (A: Sagital, B: Transversal, C: Planes)20 In neuroendocrine perspective, stress, trauma, or other form of threat has principle pathway which is hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, stress induce hypothalamus to secrete corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH) and arginine vasopressin (AVP) which lead to secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) by anterior pituitary, ACTH promote secretion of cortisol by adrenal gland, cortisol is necessary for survival hence if cortisol poorly regulated like in condition of chronic stress or trauma it can have destructive impact towards health, especially sympathetic activity, pro-inflammatory cytokine, high blood pressure, and high appetite.20,24,25 Neuroendocrine pathway discuss above explain about correlation between impact of childhood trauma with brain development (ROIs: hippocampus, amygdala, and mFCC) and endocrine system.

Great impact of childhood trauma in early adulthood life making health provider should take precaution in promotive, preventive, curative, and rehabilitative step. One of many solution of these issue was focus group discussion conseling as rehabilitation care in order to increase individual quality of life.

found 200 article related to keyword, articles obtain have no years range, and articles obtain in English only, hereinafter article were excluded based on abstract and title, finally article by Tourigny et al (2005) used in this literature review. Study by Tourigny et al compared between experimental group vs control group, participant of all group gather between September 1999 until May 2000, 44 participant were obtain hence 42 participant give their consent to join intervention while other did not. Later, 42 participant divided into experimental group consist of 27 teenage girls and control group with 15 adolescent girl, control group consist of individuals whom requested services hence did not receive treatment because they decided not to participate in group intervention, leaving group therapy in first few week, and they evaluated that group therapy is not suitable for them. Mean age of participant were 14.6 years old, 33% participant found to be living in a foster family, 31% living with both of parent, and 26% with their mother only. Trauma experience from both group consist of sexual trauma include 62% penetration as in anal, vaginal, or oral with 69% cases happen at least once a week and 31% cases involved used of physical abuse, in view of perpetrator 15% participant abuse by more than one perpetrator, 82% perpetrator were adult, 39% were immediate family, and 36% were extended family member. Control group and experimental group any significant statistically difference related abuse variable except for abuse episode show higher in control group rather than in experimental group.26 Measurement in Tourigny et al study using 2 waves measurement (pre-test and post-test) questionnaires which completed by participant except Sexual Abuse Rating Scale (SARS) whose completed by practitioner, first questionnaire about socio-demographic including number and rank in family and second questionnaire is SARS consist 21 yes/no item which describe abuse-related variable. The measurement outcome were: 1) Trauma Symptoms checklist for children, related to PTSD, higher score related to higher frequency of symptoms;

negative relationship.26 Group intervention practiced in this study is closed-group treatment with 6-8 participant each group lead by 2 therapist (man and woman), compose 20 weekly meeting last for 2 hour each, include group discussion, personal stories, and collective exercise or lectures. Main theme relate to the disclosure of abuse.26 Results and Discussion People have natural tendency to gather in group for mutual beneficial purpose, this natural tendency can be used as rehabilitation care in form of group counselling in individual with childhood trauma.27 Group counselling involves individual who have difficulties they wish to resolve that are of a personal, educational, social, or vocational nature with therapist as leader of the group in order to establish rapport and develop a trusting relationship which will help individual address the behaviour, feeling, and thought that are generated by the trauma experience.27,28 In this present study, using data by Tourigny et al, show in Figure 4, at the end of group counselling found to be there is no significant difference between experimental group and control group related to eating issue disorder, self-harming behaviour, and adolescent/father relationship might cause of low frequency of these behaviour in early therapy.26 Other, show significant result in experimental group at level of PTSS, attribution, coping strategies, internalizing and externalizing behavioural problems, and empowerment, these aspect show improvement count to group intervention theme with focus on intrusive thought and flashback, exercise on understanding cycles of sexual abuse, and consequences of sexual abuse for positive coping strategies, participant appears to use social support to cope which generally more positive than escape-avoidance coping strategies.26 Significant score also appear on relationship with mother while no score change in relationship with father in experimental group, while in control group there is no change at all this linked to negative towards mother whom do not protect them from abuse, and for self-destructive behaviour reduction does not reach significance level.26 5

Group counselling for rehabilitation care for individual with childhood trauma also done by Thompson et al in group counselling with student with domestic violence trauma as target counselling having result as group counselling is most efficient ways in which school mental health professional can promote the growth and development of student exposed to domestic violence trauma.29 Other study done by Layne et al with target counselling was children with postwar trauma yielded reduced psychological distress and positive association between distress reduction and psychosocial adaptation.30 Group interview for pediatric health search are valuable means of eliciting children

ie

n health-related matter about given an appropriate

research question.31 Good result of group counselling for individual with childhood trauma may result in good response of neuroendocrine system. Group counselling show low stress level on participant, low stress level will have good effect on neuroendocrine system because of low stressor obtain. Conclusion Group counselling show effective outcome in individual with childhood maltreatment related to it is neuroendocrine system hence this literature review have limitation such as: 1) Only one article used in this literature; 2) There is no gender related because all participant were female only; 3) Trauma discussed orientate on sexual abuse trauma only; and 4) Small amount literature which discussed about group counselling related to neuroendocrine response. Overall there is still need further study about group counselling as rehabilitation care in individual with childhood trauma related to their neuroendocrine system.

Systematic Review of Effect of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy for Burn Patients Michele Indrawan, Herbert Deji, Angeline Tancherla Introduction: Burn is damage to the skin which can be caused by fire/flame, scalds. In Indonesia, burn is ranked 6th for unintentional injuries in 2014 with mortality rate of 34% and annually causing approximately 195,000 deaths. All degree of burn can be healed, but deep partial-thickness and full-thickness burn cause scarring to occur which can be minimized by plastic surgery and physical therapy measures. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is a method, tested as a potential way of injuries management in burn patients. ESWT were less prominent as an option for burn scar management due to the lack of knowledge and systematised study oriented in ESWT efficacy for burn scar treatment. On that account, this sytematic review was carried out to evaluate the further efficacy of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy in burn patients. Materials and Methods: Data are collected from Online Resources that has an Open Access, such as Pubmed, Google Scholar, and Science Direct. Systematic analysis is done using PICO and MeSH terminology. Results and Discussions: This systematic review analyses 7 studies, which consists of 2 experimental studies and 5 randomized clinical trials. The studies evaluated the healing, scar size and appearance, itching or pruritus, mobility, and pain in 254 burn patients after ESWT by using VAS, VSS, NRS, 5-D Itch Scale, Leuven Itch Scale, measurement of scar appearance, mobility, size in mm, and completion of epithelization time. All these studies informed that groups with usage of ESWT in their treatment have superior reduction of pain, itching or pruritus, better scar appearance and size, more mobility on burned area, and faster healing time. Conclusion: All of the studies that we have analysed had found that ESWT is effective in the process of treatment for burn patients. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy is a method proficient in treating post burn scar pain and appearance, itching or pruritus, improve movement on burned area, and reduction of epithelization time.

Systematic Review of Effect of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy for Burn Patients Michele Indrawan1, Herbert Deji1, Angeline Tancherla1 1Faculty of Medicine, Pelita Harapan University, Tangerang, Banten, Indonesia Introduction: Burn is damage to the skin which can be caused by fire/flame, scalds, hot objects, electrical, and chemical. The severity of the burn depends on several factors such as the location, temperature, and duration which will be assessed based on how deep the damage is. Superficial (first degree) which affects only the epidermis of the skin with no blister, pink to red in color, and it is fairly painful. Superficial partial thickness (second degree) which affects the superficial dermis, appears wet and red, accompanied by blister, and pain is quite severe. Deep partial-thickness (second degree) which affects the deeper dermis, appears yellow or white, dry, and there is minimal sensation of pain. Full-thickness (third degree) which affects the skin and subcutaneous structure, appears white or black or brown, dry, with minimal to no sensation of pain.1 Burn injury mapping also include damage coverage; expressed in total body surface area (TBSA) involved.2 In Indonesia, burn is ranked 6th for unintentional injuries in 2014 with mortality rate of 34% and annually causing approximately 195,000 deaths.3 All degree of burn can be healed, but deep partial-thickness and full-thickness burn cause scarring to occur which can be minimized by plastic surgery and physical therapy measures. Although elimination of said scar cannot be done completely.4 Shockwaves are three dimensional waves of pressure which cause increases in pressure within nanoseconds. Positive pressure impulses rapidly rising from 5 to 120 MPa in 5ns, then decrease to negative values of -20 MPa. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) was first used to break apart kidney stones invasively. Follow up study revealed ESWT was capable of treating painful plantar fasciitis, chronic calcifying tendinitis, and improve cerebral palsy muscle spasticity. 5,6 The goal of treatments in patients with burn injuries is to manage pain and scars as well as acceleration in wound re-epithelialization. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is a method, tested as a potential way of injuries management in burn patients. 7 Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy were less prominent as an option for burn scar management due to the lack of knowledge and systematised study oriented in ESWT efficacy for burn scar treatment, leaving a gap of knowledge in 1) whether ESWT provide a clinical improvement in burn scar management, 2) what are the effects of ESWT, and 3) how helpful is ESWT in burn therapy.

According to a prospective study by Taheri et al, ESWT improves pain, itching, and appearance of burn scar (decreased Visual Analog Scale (for pain and itching) and Vancouver Scar Score) after treatment and 1 month after treatment. However, 3 months after treatment, there were not significant changes in pain relief and itching, but better scar appearance. 9 Table 2 Different mean scores of visual analog scale (pain and itching) and Vancouver Scar Scale at different times of evaluation

Fioramonti et al found that there is an improved VAS score after ESWT treatment for burn patients (scar appearance improved 3 points for three patients (18.75%), 2 points for eight patients (50%), 1 point for two patients (12.5%), and 0 points for three patients (18.75%)). The scars appeared more pliable, and color mismatch was less evident.

There is also improved movement after ESWT treatment on burn patients.10 Ottoman et al mentioned that patients

In a study conducted by Cho et al., ESWT was performed around primary treatment site three times with more significant result in scar pain reduction (NRS score 7.80±1.54 to 3.80±2.35 points, P<0.001) when compared to control group (NRS score 7.30±1.30 to 5.55±1.50 points, P<0.001).7 Table 4 Prehomogeneity test of the preliminary assessment

Statistical analysis of results in a study carried out by Zaghloul et al. showed a more significant improvement in scar thickness in study group (42.55%; 6.72 ± 1.62 mm to 3.86 ± 0.73 mm; p=0.0001) compared control group (12.15%; 6.58 ± 1.43 mm to 5.78 ± 1.17 mm; p=0.0001). Another outcome measured in this study was VSS score which also showed a significant improvement in study group (48.57%; 8.75 ± 1.71 to 4.5 ± 1.73; P=0.0001) compared to control group (14.04%; 8.9 ± 1.61 to 7.65 ± 1.78; P=0.0001).12 Table 5 Scar thickness mean value in mm for pre- and post-treatment of study and control group

Samhan, AF and Abdelhalim, NM study showed lower NRS value in study group (pre-treatment median=7, ranging from 6-10 and post-treatment median=2, ranging from 0-4 with P<0.001) which means better treatment result compared to NRS value in placebo group (pre-treatment median=7, ranging from 6-9 and post-treatment median=6, ranging from 6-9 with P=0.173).13 Table 7 Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) changes for pain and pruritus between study group and the placebo group pre- and post-treatment

To assess the effect of treatment, Joo et al measured post burn skin pruritus in both experimental and control group in 3 different scales (NRS, 5-D Itch Scale, and Leuven Itch Scale). Results in all scales indicate that ESWT significantly reduced severity and disturbances in the experimental group (NRS score 6.30 1.29 to 3.57 2.09; p<0.001) compared to control group (NRS score 6.78 1.32 to 5.35 2.31; p=0.002). 14 Table 8 The changes in numerical rating scale (NRS), 5-D pruritus scale, Leuven Itch Scale

Introduction Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a chronic psychiatric disorder which causes someone to re-experience past traumatic events such as war, natural disaster, a violent personal assault that affects his/her personality for a long period usually longer than a month¹. PTSD is associated with a chronic course and debilitating symptoms. According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders- fifth edition (DSM-5), there are several criteria to diagnose PTSD, one of which is that the traumatic event must involve a person to directly exposed to the event. PTSD symptoms usually develop during the first month after the traumatic event but in a minority of cases, this period is usually can occur in months or even years. These symptoms of PTSD include (1) re-experiencing in the form of a nightmare, flashback, repetitive distressing image or sensation, and physical sensation; (2) avoidance and emotional numbing by trying to avoid a certain place, people or activity; and (3) Hyperarousal or anxious that can lead someone to irritability, angry outburst, difficulty sleeping, and difficulty in concentrating In research published by Cambridge University², it is stated that a low level of serotonin is related to the prevalence of PTSD and thus serotonergic agents such as sertraline can be used to possibly reduce the symptoms of PTSD. serotonin(5-HT) is a type of neurotransmitter which is usually found in the brain, bowel, and blood platelets. It helps regulate cognitive, appetite, sleep cycle, and is a key role in mood balancing. and thus as the result of the research conducted by Cambridge University shows that the treatment of PTSD is usually involving 5-HT Pathway. Sertraline is a type of antidepressant that fall under the class selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor(SSRI)³. Sertraline works by slowing the reabsorption of serotonin in the brain. Normally serotonin in the brain gets absorb quickly after sending a signal however the SSRI works by slowing that absorption so the serotonin can send more signals to the neurons which can improve mood. In this Systematic Review, We wanted to evaluate the effectiveness of the sertraline compared to the placebo group in a PTSD patient to see whether the sertraline is effective to help reduce the symptoms.

According to the study by Friedman et al, conducted in 169 subjects which were assigned randomly to the sertraline group (n=86) and placebo group (n=83). The study shows no statistical significance between the result of the sertraline group and the placebo group. As the mean baseline CAPS severity score and standard deviation for sertraline and placebo group were 72.1(19.1) and 73.8(3.1) respectively and the endpoint for each group CAPS were -13.1 ± 3.0 and -15.4 ± 3.1 which shows no significant difference. The same trends go for the total impact of event scale(IES) the result for both groups is shows relatively the same results, sertraline

group(-8.7 ± 1.8) and placebo group (-8.1 ± 1.9). For the clinical global impression-severity of illness scale(CGI-S), there are no significant differences again between the sertraline group(-0.5

0.1) and placebo group(-0.6 ± 0.1). And for the clinical global impressions-improvement scale(CGI-I) the results once again show no difference between 2 groups(3.0 ± 0.2). These results show that sertraline might not be efficacious at the endpoint. One interpretation from Friedman et al studies is stated in the discussion of their journal which suggests that sertraline might only be effective for PTSD patients with civilian trauma. Panahi et al. stated in their study that, with a total of seventy-male Iranian Iran-Iraq veteran outpatients, which were randomly assigned to a double-blind treatment of sertraline (n=35) and placebo (n=35) and amongst these, 62 people completed the study (n=32 and 30 in the sertraline and placebo groups, respectively). On the per-protocol analysis (PPA), the mean reduction of IES-R total score was found to be significantly higher in sertraline than the placebo

group ( – 24.8±2.0 v. – 20.4±2.2; t=

-8.3,p<0.001). There was also a similar trend for all

three IES-R subscales: re-experiencing/intrusion (-– 9.1±1.3 v. –7.6±1.2; z= –4.4, p<0.001), avoidance/numbing (–8.8±1.1 v. –7.2±1.5, z= –4.0, p<0.001) and hyperarousal (–6.9±0.8 v. –5.6±0.7, z= –5.6, p<0.001) symptoms. Using PPA, the mean reduction in the CGI-S score by the end of the trial was found to be signi cantly greater in the sertraline than in the placebo group (–1.0±0.7 v. –0.5±0.7; z= –2.9, p=0.003). Similarly, treatment with sertraline was associated with a signi cantly lower CGI-I score at endpoint compared to placebo (2.7±0.7 v. 3.4±0.7, z= –3.4, p=0.001). Responder rates also turned out to be higher in the sertraline group when CGI-I (sertraline: 44%; placebo: 13%; p=0.008) and IES-R (sertraline: 100%; placebo: 80%; p=0.01) based criteria were applied alone. The results of the study show a significant efficacy for sertraline in all three efficacy measures: IES-R, CGI-I, and CGI-S scales. There was also a greater reduction in the mean score of each defined clusters of DSM-IV of the IES-R subscales, which was associated with sertraline. The study conducted by Davidson JRT et al, 208 subjects, consisting of male and female outpatients who met the DSM-III-R criteria and they were among the ages of 18 years and older, were randomly assigned to sertraline or placebo. The baseline PTSD symptoms of subjects were then rated by investigators using CAPS-2 and the Clinical Global Impression-Severity Scale (CGI-S), while efficacy and safety that was consisted of primary outcome rated by CAPS-2 and

116


Impact of Event Scale (IES), CGI-S and CGI-Improvement (CGI-I) scales. The secondary outcome which was rated by CAPS-2, 17 item Davidson Trauma Scale (DTS), which were administered at every visit while, the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D), the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index which were administered at baseline and study endpoint only. The results for efficacy show that the benefit of sertraline on the 2 PTSD severity scales (CAPS-2 and IES) was confirmed by global (CGI) measures as well as the DTS scale. There is significance (x2 = 8.48, P= .004) more sertraline treated subjects were 1 classified as responders at endpoint compared with placebo subjects and it was also observed a

significantly steeper improvement in using sertraline compared with placebo on both measures

(t = -2.96, P = .003 for CAPS-2, and t = -3.45, P<.001 for DTS) and additional mixed-effect 1379 1377 analysis were also found significantly steeper improvement slopes in favour of sertraline for the IES ( t1375= -2.26, P = .02) and for the CGI-I score (t1178= -3.62, P<0.001) and for CGI-S (t1380=

-4.40, P<.001). As for the results in social functioning measured by the global rating on CAPS-2 showed significantly greater improvement on sertraline (2.6±0.8 to 1.2±1.1) which was compared to placebo (2.7±0.9 to 1.7±1.1; t = 2.48; P=.01), but there were no significant differences between sertraline and placebo found on either HAM-A or HAM-D at the end of the study. This study provides evidence of a safe, well-tolerated, significantly effective treatment of sertraline compared with placebo for this long-abandoned public health problem. According to Austin et al. study, out of the 42 patients who were screened and signed informed consent forms, 23 patients randomized to sertraline (83% male, age [mean ± SD]: 41± 6 years) and 19 patients randomized to placebo (95% male, age: 38 9 years). Those with randomized to sertraline has a significant outcome than those with randomized to placebo, although the effect of sertraline only achieved significance (p = 0.05) on the Clinical Global Impression 1 (see Fig.1).

In the study conducted by Brady et al., a total of 187 patients are randomly assigned to sertraline (n=94) or placebo (n=93) that ages ranged from 18 to 69 years, with 45% of the sample being younger than 45 years. Sertraline has a significantly greater efficacy than placebo at the study endpoint on 3 out of 4 primary outcome measures. A significant (p = 0.02) treatment efficacy result on CAPS-2 treated with sertraline. A significant (p = 0.01) result is also found on CGI-S with sertraline. Efficacy measures of CGI-I have a significant (p = 0.04) outcome with sertraline. A significant (p = 0.003) advantage is found for sertraline compared with placebo on the Davidson PTSD Scale. Conclusion: We can conclude from the 5 studies that we have analyzed, sertraline has a high efficacy and significant improvement compared with placebo when it comes to reducing symptoms of PTSD, this can also be seen out of the 5 studies we have analyzed, only 1 that stated that there was no significant difference between sertraline and placebo.

Surprisingly, TBI burden study in Asia is the highest compared to all other global regions due to TBI-related outcomes as a result of falls (77%) and other intentional injuries. Currently, no study has comprehensively reviewed the factors related to TBI prognostic specifically in Asian settings, though such review is desperately needed considering the high Road Traffic Injury (RTI) induced TBI prevalence in Asian population. Objective To assess comprehensive set of predictive TBI prognostic indicators in Asian Methods A systematic review was conducted through PubMed, Scopus, and CENTRAL, searching for cohort studies which analyse factors contributing to related with unfavourable prognosis of TBI Patients in Asia. Studies selected were then assessed for bias risk with STROBE s cri eria. Results The search yielded seven studies with a total of 1,940 subjects, consisting 6 cohort studies. Sociodemographic factors and clinical factors are two categories of factors associated with unfavourable prognosis of traumatic brain injury patients in Asian countries. The most consistent factors are age, GCS Score, and neurological comorbidity. Conclusions To conclude, the factors associated with unfavourable prognosis of traumatic brain injury patients in Asian countries are Age, Gender, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), neurological comorbidity, pH bleeding, pH respiratory distress, raised intracranial pressure (ICP), hypotension/ blood pressure, heart rate, hypoxia, and motor response. Future evaluation of current triage criteria in ED is hoped to establish the updated triage system in clinical setting, thereby helping to reduce the unfavourable prognosis of TBI patients in Asian countries.

Introduction Trauma is the seventh leading cause of death in older adults.1 Injuries among the elderly

are a common occurrence. As people get older, the elderly will become a prominent part of the trauma patient. The elderly suffer the same injuries that young people experience; However, due to various age-related processes, the elderly suffer more severe consequences from this injury.2 Trauma is a disease process that attacks all age groups. Death and morbidity due to injury can be influenced by many factors including age, physical condition, and comorbidity. Management of elderly trauma patients can present several unique challenges compared to young patients. The most dangerous is craniofacial trauma associated with high mortality, but the most common is hip fracture.2,3,4 Elderly trauma patients are very susceptible to the adverse effects of red blood cells (PRBC). Elderly intensive care unit (ICU) patients are more often transfused than younger counterparts because they can disproportionately experience immunosuppressive effects and increased mortality associated with blood transfusions.4 Elderly trauma patients will have lower levels of incoming hemoglobin, higher transfusion rates, and worse outcomes than younger trauma patients when controlling the severity of injuries, comorbid conditions, and blood loss ..5 Massive transfusion protocol (MTP) is used to sensitize patients with hemorrhagic shock. When MTP is activated, survival for outpatients in elderly trauma patients is comparable to younger patients.6 Management of elderly trauma patients presents unique challenges. The incidence of elderly major trauma in Victoria is increasing, with now 36.4% of adult major trauma presentations associated with patients aged 65 years or more in 2014-2015.7 Physiological patients who can determine their recovery from traumatic injuries than at only their chronological age. Co-morbid clinical conditions can fundamentally determine the healing of elderly patients and even survival after Major and even Minor Trauma. Be aware that even in situations where there are no life-threatening injuries, patients can die from limited physiological reserves.2,3,4,8 Their results suggested that patients 50 89 years of age, particularly those with mTBI, were significantly more dependent compared to younger patients, as measured with the Independent Living Scale (ILS) at one-year post-injury. More recently, Sirois et al. and the CETI (the Canadian Emergency Departments Team Initiative) evaluated functional decline in older patients after different types of minor trauma, including MT-HI,9 and found that approximately 18% of their population had a functional decline at six months. Furthermore, older adults often sustain more than one injury in the same event.10 Leong et al. studied the effect of a co-injury (injury to another part of the body) with

153


an mTBI in young patients and found that their functional outcome was significantly worse than those without a co-injury.11

Methods Search strategies and criteria for selecting articles Systematic literature study searches

were conducted with a database in Pubmed, Google for articles published between 2011 and 2018. We use the following terms in the search field: Trauma AND Handling and Trauma AND Elderly. Search results are downloaded into a personal database. The results from the four databases are then cited and combined. III.

Results A total of 926 patients were included in the analysis, 344 in the MT-HI group and 582

in the group without head injury (Figure 1). Table 1 describes the characteristics of the participants and highlights some differences between the two groups. Patients with MT-HI were older than those without head injury. Also, falls from their height were the leading cause of trauma in both groups but a greater proportion was found in the MT-HI group. A greater proportion of patients with a pain level > 7/10 was identified in the without head injury group. Two important differences were found: patients from the without head injury group needed more help after their injury and they also had a greater proportion of consultation delays (time between injury and presentation at the ED) of 48 hours and more. 9 Six months after trauma, 10.8% of patients in the MT-HI group had a functional decline compared to 11.9% in the without head injury group (RR= 0.79 [95% CI 0.55 1.14]), which was not statistically significant (Table 2). The proportion of participants who had mild cognitive impairment was similar in the two groups both at baseline (RR = 1.01 [95% CI 0.84 1.30]) and at six months post-injury (RR = 0.91 [0.71 1.18]). Surprisingly, at six months, the proportion of patients who had a cognitive impairment was lower than at baseline in both groups, 21.7% v. 35%, and 22.8% v. 33% respectively (p < 0.001). The presence of a co-injury did not have a significant impact on functional decline in the MT-HI group (RR = 1.35 [95% CI 0.70 2.59]) (Table 3). 9 We performed a subgroup analysis comparing mTBI patients, as defined by the WHO criteria, to patients with injuries other than mTBI (Table 4). The proportion of patients who had a functional decline was 11.7% in the mTBI group v. 11.4% in the group without mTBI (RR = 0.90 [95% CI 0.58 1.39]). We found no significant difference in cognitive outcomes at

154


six months between these two subgroups (20.4% v. 22.9%, RR = 0.82 [95% CI 0.59 1.13]). Sensitivity analyses with different cut-offs for the OARS scale did not show different results (data not shown). 9 IV.

Discussion To our knowledge, this is the first prospective study aiming to compare the functional

prognosis of older adults after an MT-HI with those who sustained a minor trauma without a head injury. Our study included elderly patients from a large Canadian multicenter cohort, and standardized validated scales were used to assess outcomes. Our results showed that functional and cognitive decline was similar in both groups. So we can expect a similar prognosis regardless of the nature of the injury. 9 Our initial hypothesis was that a minor trauma involving a head injury (MT-HI) could have a more significant impact on functional outcome than a minor trauma without a head injury. However, there were no differences between the two groups six months after the trauma. Surprisingly, the cognitive status at six months improved relative to baseline for all patients, which correlates with results of a previous study.10

A hypothesis that could explain this finding is that the tests were done after the actual injury and their results might not represent the real baseline cognitive status of participants before the trauma. Also, it has been shown that a short visit to the ED has repercussions on the cognitive status (recognized as delirium) of elderly patients.11-15 Given the results of this study, interventions that reduce the impact of injury on functional status are likely to affect the risk of injury recurrence. Such interventions might focus on the aggressive management of the elderly patient who experienced trauma in the rehabilitation setting. Research16 supports the contention that more aggressive rehabilitation management planning can be effective in returning patients to a preinjury level of functioning. Fall injury prevention programs are also likely to provide insight as to effective interventions to reduce recurrent injuries in general. Several studies have evaluated interventions focused on improving mobility and physical fitness, identifying (and modifying) environmental and personal safety risks, and modifying psychotropic drug use. The growing consensus in this literature is that multifactorial interventions are likely to be most successful in reducing the risk of initial and recurrent falls. It is suggested that patients at risk of falls based on known risk factors17

V.

Conclusion Older independent adults with minor trauma involving a head injury do not seem to

have worse functional or cognitive decline than those without head injury. In our MT-HI group, the presence of a concomitant injury did not seem to be associated with an increased risk of functional decline after six months. Although we observed a similar prognosis regardless of the nature of the injury, 11% of our cohort of independent older adults had a significant functional decline following their minor traumatic injury. Accordingly, further research should focus on finding a way to effectively screen for patients who are at higher risk of functional decline.9

Protective Effect of Erythropoietin in Traumatic Brain Injury Jonathan Vincent Lee* Johanna Valentina* Tharriel Jeremia* ABSTRACT

Introduction Between 2009 and 2013, there are 1178 cases of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in Indonesia each year. This calls for new methods to improve the outcome of TBI, one of those is by the usage of erythropoietin (EPO). Earlier researches in mice found that EPO possesses beneficial effects. However, the effect in human is not certain.

Aim This systematic review aims to determine the benefit of EPO usage on TBI patients.

Materials and Methods Search was done in Cochrane, Google Scholar, and Science Direct. PICO a ed a analytical design method, and all literature will be filtered using inclusion and exclusion criteria. Risk of Bias 2 tool was used to determine the risk of bias for each research.

Result and Discussion There were 9.920 journals from Cochrane, Google Scholar, and Science Direct. After filtered with inclusion and exclusion criteria, 5 literatures were taken to be analyzed. Claudia S. Robertson, MD; et al: there are no significant advantage by using EPO in TBI (95% CI, 0.184 to 0.44 , P < .001) Skrifvars MB,et.al: there are significant improvement in TBI patients with EPO (95% confidence interval, 2.9-17%; p = 0.007). R. Nirula, et al (2010): there are no reduction of neuronal cell death by using EPO in TBI (P = 0.89). Nichol, Alistair. Et.al: the effect of EPO in patients remain uncertain (RR 0路68 ,95% CI 0路44 1路03 p=0路07) . Talving, Et,Al: they demonstrated a significantly lower in-hospital mortality in comparison to controls groups (7.9% vs 24.2% (OR: 0.27; 95% CI = 0.12-0.62; P = 0.001).

161


Conclusion Some contradicting experiments disproved the benefits of EPO. However, most of the researches can be optimized further due to the limitations. Therefore, we strongly suggest that most of the researches be optimized further for more accurate results. Keywords: Erythropoietin, Traumatic Brain Injury.

INTRODUCTION Traumatic Brain Injury Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is damage to the brain that is caused by a sudden trauma. TBI occurs due to an impact or head injury. Based on the research conducted by Rosyidi et.al, in Indonesia, between the year of 2009 and 2013, it was found that there were 1178 cases of brain injury patients each year. Half of all TBI cases were from motor vehicle accidents. 1

Symptoms of TBI vary from mild, moderate, or severe, depending on the damage to the brain. Sometimes people called mild brain injury as c c

remain conscious or may experience loss of consciousness. Other symptoms of mild TBI include headache, nausea, confusion, blurred vision, ringing in the ears, dizziness, and tiredness.2 Patients with moderate or severe TBI may experience the same symptoms, but they may have a headache that gets worse or does not go away, repeated vomiting or nausea, convulsions or seizures, slurred speech, inability to awaken from sleep, dilated pupils, and loss of coordination. The worst TBI can lead to permanent brain damage or death.2 TBI may cause problems with various brain function. The types of these problems depend on where the brain was injured. The problems include difficulty learning, trouble talking, difficulty with social situations, depression, and loss of the sense of taste. A large body of epidemiological studies has shown that having a history of previous TBI is associated with the development of numerous types of dementia later in life. Other recent studies showed that TBI is linked to other types of neurodegeneration such as Lewy Body accumulation and Parkinsonism.3,4 A variety of treatments can help promote recovery from the physical, emotional, and cognitive problems TBI may cause. The types of treatments depend on the severity of the injury and its specific location in the brain. Mild TBI may not require specific treatment other than rest. However, it is important to follow a health care provider i

so patients can return to normal activities gradually. Patients with concussion might need to reduce heavy activities or might need to rest between periods of such activities to let the brain rest. In addition, alcohol and other drugs can make the recovery process become slower and increase the chances of re-injury. In most of emergency cases, the treatment focuses on stabilizing the patient and promoting survival. The treatment may include ensuring adequate oxygen flow to the brain, controlling blood pressure, and preventing further injury to the head or neck. Once the patient is stable, other types of care for TBI and its effects can begin. Surgery may be done in emergency treatment to reduce additional damage to brain tissue. 5,6 Erythropoietin Human Erythropoietin (EPO) is an acidic glycoprotein hormone produced by the peritubular cells of the kidney which is crucial in the production of Red Blood Cell (RBC). It has 165 amino acid residues chain that form four antiparallel -helices,

-sheets, and two intra-

chain disulfide bridges (Cys7-Cys161, Cys29-Cys33). The carbohydrate portion comprises three N-glycans (at Asn24, Asn38, and Asn83) and one O-glycan (at Ser126).7 EPO stimulates proliferation and differentiation of RBC in the red bone marrow, known as erythropoiesis. Once erythropoiesis is done, mature RBC will be released into the blood. EPO secretion will stop if the oxygen supply to the kidney is fulfilled. Decreased oxygen supply to the kidney will stimulate the secretion of EPO into the blood. 7 EPO stimulates red blood cell production by binding and activating a high affinity receptor (EpoR) that is expressed predominantly on the surface of immature erythroid cells. Signal transduction through EpoR is initiated by ligand binding which cause dimerization of EpoR monomers. The predominant pathway activated by EpoR is the Jak/STAT signaling cascade. Activated EpoR cause tyrosine phosphorylation of several intracellular proteins. Jak2 protein tyrosine kinase associated with EpoR and serving as mediator of Epo-responsive signal transduction. The EpoR contains eight tyrosine residues, upon phosphorylation, several of these serve as docking sites for intracellular signaling molecules, including the transcription factors STAT5A and STAT5B, the p85 subunit of phosphoinositol 3'-kinase (PI3K), the cytokine suppressor CIS and the phosphatase SHP-1. 7

Jak2 appears to interact directly with STAT5A and STAT5B, indicating it can serve as a scaffold for signal protein activation in addition to its enzymatic role in EpoR signal transduction. Recruitment of signaling molecules in proximity to Jak2 in the EpoR complex enables their tyrosine phosphorylation, which is an important step in subsequent activation of their respective signaling cascades. STAT5A and STAT5B proteins are predominant signal transducers for EpoR. These proteins are activated within seconds of EPO binding and accumulate in the nucleus to mediate Epo-responsive gene transcription for erythropoiesis. EPO production depends on the rate of Epo Gene in Chromosome 7. EPO have Hypoxia-Response Element (HRE) that activated by Hypoxia-Inducible Transcription Factors (HIFs). The main activator of EPO is HIF-2. 7

Risk of bias tool 2 (ROB 2) is used to determine the risk of bias for each research. RESULT AND DISCUSSION Erythropoietin have long been regarded as possessing protective effects, especially regarding traumatic brain injury. Experiments in mice and rats prove that erythropoietin possess neuroprotective effects; research done by Grasso et Al. proves that usage of EPO improves recovery, reduces blood brain barrier breakdown, and reduces injury volume significantly. 8 However, it remains to be seen whether erythropoietin does have a positive effect to reduce damage from traumatic brain injuries. This is found by several conflicting researches. One research done by Talving et.al, in which 267 patients were included in a retrospective study, out of the 89 people that is given Epo Stimulating Agent, only 7 (7.9%) patients whose condition worsened, compared to the 43 (24.2%) patients in the control group. (OR: 0.27; 95% CI = 0.12-0.62; P = 0.001). 9 In a randomized controlled trial done by Skifvars et al. in which 603 TBI patients were included in the research, out of the 301 patients with Injury Severity Score (ISS) of over 6, 147 patients were given EPO and 154 patients were given placebo. Only 10 (6.8%) of the patients in the treatment group died compared to 26 (17%) of patients in the placebo group (risk reduction, 0.1 ; 95% confidence interval, 2.9-17%; p = 0.007).10 These researches proves that EPO possess a benefit to patients with TBI On the other hand, research done by Claudia S et.al, out of 200 patients with closed head injury, 102 patients were given EPO using two different doses, unfortunately, both of the doses does not improve the outcome of the patients (first dosing regimen: 17/35 [29.8%; 95% CI, 0.184 to 0.44 ], P < .001), second dosing regimen: 17/57 [48.6%; 95% CI, 0.31 to 0.66]

Also, According to Nichol et.al, out of 596 patients which were enrolled to a study, in which 302 of the patients were given EPO, and 294 were given placebo, the population with

167


EPO does not improve 6 months mortality rate (RR 0·68 ,95% CI 0·44 1·03 p=0·07), or decrease neurological dysfunction ([RR] 0·99,95% CI 0·83 1·18, p=0·90).11 Another research done by Nirula et.al, which measures the Baseline and daily serum S100B and Neuron Specific Enolase (NSE) founds that out of patients which were given epo, the severity of TBI was worse compared of placebo patients, in which the value of NSE (P = 0.89) or S100 B (P = 0.53) does not improve.12 These researches proves that there are no significant advantage by using EPO in traumatic brain injuries, with no differing recovery rate, reduction of damage, or improved outcome. Thus, it seems that most research trends towards the conclusion that EPO provides no beneficial effects. Yet, there are aspects we need to consider, one of those are the limitations of the research. Traumatic brain injury is a complex injury which correlates to many, if not all, of systems, which results in a hugely heterogeneous range of disability. A question rises regarding the dosage, intervention time, and the assessment of EPO, an area where most of the researches can be refined in. 13 As an example, within the research done by Nichol et.al, the recruitment period of 24 hours did not corroborate with the research done by Ponce et.al which shows that EPO possesses beneficial effect to acute traumatic brain injuries.14 Another part of the conundrum are the dosages given; most of the patient does not receive the optimal dosage of EPO due to safety concerns. This leads to a conclusion that none of the researches truly covers the scope of TBI as well as the full benefits of EPO that comes with the optimal dosage and timing. CONCLUSION Experiments using EPO in mice proved that there is potential for protective effects of EPO in traumatic brain injury. Even though most clinical research in humans find that EPO usage fails to produce a significant protective effect in traumatic brain injury, yet most of the research fails to define the value of EPO in the optimal conditions. This can be caused due to difficulty and limitations of EPO and the complexity of traumatic brain injuries within human populations. Thus, further clinical research with refined and specified goals, method and outcome is needed to have a definitive conclusion regarding this matter.

Systematic Review of the Effect of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder Symptoms on Executive Functions in Children Angeline Tancherla, Felix Wijovi, Jessica Anastasia Introduction: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a chronic psychological disorder that may develop after exposure to a traumatic event. The lifetime prevalence of PTSD is estimated at 8.3%. It is associated with a chronic course and debilitating symptoms. Many researches have been conducted related to EFs (Executive Functions) in adults who are exposed to trauma. However, there are relatively little research has discussed EFs among children who are exposed to trauma. Thus, we carried out our systematic review to evaluate the relationship between PTSD and EFs in children.

Park et al., Samuelson et al., Li et al., MacDonald et al., DePrince et al., Yasik et al. had stated that traumatized children with PTSD have impaired executive functions. Only 1 study conducted by Yang et al. had found that there is no significant difference on EFs control between children with PTSD and children without PTSD. Conclusion: We can conclude that PTSD may cause the declining of EFs in children. Only 1 out of 7 study states that there is no difference in EFs control between children with PTSD and children without PTSD.

Introduction Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a chronic psychological disorder that may develop after exposure to a traumatic event and is associated with a chronic course and debilitating symptoms. The lifetime prevalence of PTSD is estimated at 8.3%. According to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders- fifth edition (DSM-5), the traumatic event must involve exposure to actual or threatened death, serious injury, or sexual violence and is more likely occur after more severe types of trauma, such as rape, military combat, and childhood abuse.1 PTSD is characterized by four clusters of symptoms: (1) re-experiencing symptoms (e.g., recurrent intrusive memories, traumatic nightmares, and flashbacks); (2) avoidance symptoms (e.g., avoiding trauma-related thoughts and feelings and/or objects, people, or places associated with the trauma); (3) negative changes in cognitions and mood (e.g., distorted beliefs about oneself or the world, persistent shame or guilt, emotional numbing, feelings of alienation, inability to recall key details of the trauma); and (4) alterations in arousal or reactivity symptoms (e.g., irritability, hypervigilance, reckless behaviour, sleep disturbance, difficulty concentrating).2 The term of executive functions (EFs; also called as executive control or cognitive control) refers to mental processes that involves the goal-directed activities and are comprised of such diverse abilities which includes directing attention, manipulating information in working memory, and self-monitoring.3 Many researches have been conducted related to EFs in adults who are exposed to trauma. However, there are relatively little research has discussed EFs among children who are exposed to trauma. Neurophysiological evidence has demonstrated that the brain's frontal lobes and striatal regions are the primary region involved in executive functioning.4 Accordingly, the development of EFs is thought to coincide with growth spurts in the maturation of the frontal cortex that occur between birth and 2nd, 7th, 9th years, during adolescence, and into the third decade of life. Therefore, developmental factors should be considered in examining EFs associated with trauma exposure. Findings in adults related to trauma and EFs may not generalise to youth who are still undergoing cortical development. In addition, since EFs are 3

central to many of the developmental tasks children has, the study of EFs and trauma exposure in children is particularly important.5 Previous studies on PTSD and EFs were fragmented and incomplete; in addition, no evidence-based study has examined the association between PTSD and EFs in children who still undergoing cortical development. Thus, we carried out our systematic review to evaluate the relationship between PTSD and EFs in children.

According to Park et al., out of 215 subjects of children who are exposed to trauma, there are 26 children with marked PTSD symptoms (UCLA CPTSD-RI (Child Post-traumatic Stress Disorder Reaction Index) score >25, high-risk group). Those high-risk group children had lower neuropsychological scores in flanker interference [94.66, p < 0.001], working memory [94.03, p = 0.046], and in total composite score [96.19, p = 0.030] compared to control group and low-risk group.6 In a cross-sectional study by Samuelson et al., there are 27 children exposed to IPV (intimate partner violence) with PTSD, who scored lower in CVLT-C (California Verbal Learning Test, Children

PTSD [mean = 53.94].7 In the study conducted by Li et al., probable PTSD diagnosis was inferred using the DSM-IV diagnostic algorithm of at least one re-experiencing, three avoidance/numbing and two arousal symptoms endorsed at the level of 2 or higher (scale range: 0-4), and 12.1% (n = 1,629) of the trauma-exposed students met the diagnostic criteria. The average score for DEX-S was 20.0 (SD = 13.0; range: 0-80), and the mean level of impairments in quality of life Figure 2 Profile plot for the ten sum scores of PTSD and executive was 21.5 (SD = 14.0; range: 0-92).

severe PTSD symptoms and executive deficits while those in the low symptom group showed the least. The severity of PTSD and dysexecutive symptoms tightly cohered within each class and none of the classes showed predominant PTSD or executive dysfunction symptoms. the ilustration of the results is displayed in figure 2.8 According to Yang et al, no significant differences were found in neuropsychological testing between the PTSD group and the controls in any measure at 4- and 12- months after trauma exposure. Both PTSD group and control group improved in similar domains of executive function: the ROCFT immediate and delayed memories and TMT-A and -B (p = 0.6, p = 0.5, p = 0.6, p = 0.2 respectively).9

Macdonalds et al. stated in their study that trauma-related memories, may additionally affect to decline in executive functions, as the content of the traumatic memory or resultant physiological arousal may distract the child from focusing on an academic and social task including communication. There is empirical support for the deleterious impact of reexperiencing symptoms on cognitive functioning in adults, suggesting that there may be a specific relationship between this cluster of PTSD symptoms and executive functioning deficits, which may extend to children. PTSD symptoms was significantly correlated with executive functioning as measured by Trail Making Test, (log of) B

symptoms were associated at the trend level with failure to maintain set on the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (r = 0.27; p = 0.062).10 A study by DePrince et al. found that children with familial-trauma exposure have poorer performance in executive function tests compared to children who are not exposed to any trauma. The executive function tests are working memory composite (Trauma-exposure group zscores = -0.26 vs. 0.11), inhibition composite (Trauma-exposure group z-scores = -0.25 vs. 0.18), interference control: Stroop (Trauma-exposure group z-scores = -0.09 vs. 0.14), auditory attention: Brief Test of Attention (Trauma-exposure group z-scores = -0.24 vs. 0.03), processing speed: Symbol Search (z-scores = -0.27 vs. 0.16) and total composite (z-scores = - 0.25 vs. 0.12).11 Based on Yasik et al. study, there are significant differences between the groups with regard to gender X2 (2, n = 131) 6.73, p =0.05 and ethnicity X 2 (8, n=131) 20.04, p =0.05. An ANOVA identified significant group differences for SES, F(2,128) 8.51, p=0.001. Post hoc

tests determined that the PTSD group had significantly lower SES ratings than the traumatised PTSD negatives, t (91) 3.93, p=0.001, and non-traumatised control subjects, t (69) 3.46, p= 0.01. ratings of the PTSD negatives and the non-traumatised control subjects were not significantly different. The mean number of traumas reported by the PTSD group (M=1.83, SD =0.97) was significantly greater than the mean number of traumas reported by the traumatised PTSD negatives (M=1.32, SD=0.59), F(1,88) 9.41, p=0.01. Among the PTSD group, 41.4% reported exposure to a single traumatic event, 44.8% reported exposure to two traumatic events, and 13.8% reported exposure to more than two traumatic events. With reference to the traumatised PTSD negatives, 74.2% reported exposure to a single traumatic event, 19.3% reported exposure to two traumatic events, and 6.5% reported exposure to more than two traumatic events. In contrast, the mean number of months since trauma for the PTSD group (M=7.92, SD=10.80) was not significantly different from the mean time since trauma for the traumatised PTSD negatives (M=5.52, SD=10.20), F(1,88) 1.09, p=0.05. Similarly, the mean age at traumatisation for the PTSD group (M=13.57, SD=3.15) was not significantly different from the traumatised PTSD negative group (M=12.77, SD=3.20), F(1,88) 1.25, p=0.05.12 Conclusion: From systematic analysis we done, we can conclude that PTSD may cause the declining of EFs in children. From the 7 studies we had analysed, only 1 study states that there is no difference in EFs control between children with PTSD and children without PTSD.

The Effectiveness of Phytochemical Constituents in Moringa Leaves (Moringa Oleifera Lam) on the Wound Healing Process Winalda Eka Santi, Marlin, Lestari Eka Putri Wanti I.

Introduction Moringa olifera is a small fast growing tree, it belongs to moringaceae family. The main origin of the

Moringa olifera is reported that in south Himalayas and North West region of India. In English it is known as Horseradish tree, Drumstick tree.1 This plant has been widely consumed in many rural and urban areas of developing countries, such as countries in the African and Asian continents, due to its benefits in medicine and nutritional contents.2 Many of whose parts are consumed for both nutritional as well as medicinal values world wide. The people called Moringa plants as the miracle tree because of its remarkable healing properties on various diseases and some chronic diseases.3-4 Moringa leaves, fruits, flower, seed and braches have there on medicinal properties it good for human growth and development.1 And also its all parts is used for the treatment of various disease like Inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn’s disease5 and other immunological disorders like arthritis, ulcerative colitis, asthma, allergy etc.6 The moringa leaves possess several properties, its main principle are growth enhancing properties, antitumor, antiepileptic, antispasmodic, antioxidant, antiinflammatory, anti-ulcer, antihypertensive antimicrobial, anti-helminthic, analgesic activity, antipyretic, diuretic and cholesterol lowering activity, also anti hepatoprotective activities.7 Moringa leaves contain aspartic acid, glutamic acid, glycine, threonine, alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, histidine, lysine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, cysteine, and methionine.8 Moringa leaves having good wound healing property and leaves were used for rubbed against temple can relive headache, to stop bleeding from cuts and wounds.9 Caceres et al. reported the antimicrobial activity of the Moringa leaves and roots in an in-vitro study using the disc-diffusion method. Moringa oleifera as an antibiotic is identified by the pterygospermin content, with the bioactive phytochemical of glucosinolate 4 alphaL-rhamnosyloxy benzyl isothiocyanate.8 Also, the anti-inflammatory properties are identified by pterygospermin and moringinine alkaloid content which can cause blood vessels constriction. Moringa leaves also contains other substances such as proteins, fats, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins, and essential amino acids.3,10 The wound is a loss of tissue continuity, which will be followed by the wound healing process begins with the scar tissue formation.11 Wound may occur due to chemical, immunological, physical and microbiological attack to the tissue leading to cellular disruption of tissue is occurring. 12 Wound healing is a complex and dynamic process it restores normal functions of damaged tissue, which divided into three phases: the inflammatory phase, the proliferation, and the remodelling phase.11 Wound healing is a form of response from the connective tissue. The initial phase of this process involves an acute inflammatory phase followed by the synthesis of collagen and other extracellular macromolecules which then form scars or scar tissue. 13 Appropriate wound healing methods are essential for a sustained recovery of damaged anatomical. 186


Many factors are affecting the wound healing period, such as age, nutrition, immunosuppression status, systemic interference, and the extrinsic factors such as medication and treatment. Many ways can be done in the wound care management, for example by giving antiseptic substances. However, side effects often arise in the use of chemical substances, so finding the alternative herbal remedies with relatively small side effects is necessary.14 There are number of plants are used for the treatment of wound healing.12 About 400 years ago India and china written their knowledge about the plant remedies is called as herbals. Herbal medicines are act on the body; their action is depending on the presence of constituents present in the plant. Herbal plants are providing stamina, support the action of digestive system, enhance the absorption, improving blood flow to the body, eliminate the toxins, maintain the infections and heal the injury.15 Research the effect of herbal ingredients on wound healing has been done, various herbal ingredients such as betel quid extract,14 propolis,16 turmeric liquid extract,17 brotowali extract (Tinospura crispa).18 Exploration, cultivation, and research of herbal remedies are developing, such as the Moringa plants (Moringa Oleifera Lam.).19 This study was aimed to determine the effectiveness of Moringa leaves extract gel on the wound healing.

Results and Discussion

Pathophysiology of Wound Healing Acute wounds are a common health problem, with 11 million people affected and approximately 300,000 people hospitalized yearly in the United States. Typically, acute wound healing is a well-organized process leading to predictable tissue repair where platelets, keratinocytes, immune surveillance cells, microvascular cells, and fibroblasts play key roles in the restoration of tissue integrity. The wound repair process can be divided into 4 temporarily and spatially overlapping phases: coagulation, inflammation, formation of granulation tissue (proliferative phase), and remodeling or scar formation phase.20 [Figure ] During the process of healing reactive oxygen species are produced at the site of wound and it active against the invading bacteria and also impaired wound healing is occurring due to increasing the concentration of reactive oxygen species. Oxidative stress has important role in the tissue damage during the process of healing. Oxidative stress is due to imbalance between the granulation of reactive oxygen species and endogenous antioxidant.21

Oxidative stress can be reducing by using the anti-oxidant property having drugs or medicinal plants. Herbal plant provides natural way of wound repairing. Moringa leaves having antimicrobial and anti-oxidant property which essential for wound healing and Moringa olifera contains 92 nutrient and 46 types of antioxidant. Various types of vitamins are also present such as vitamin A (Beta carotene), vitamin B1 (Thiamine), vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), vitamin B3 (Niacin), vitamin B6 (Phyrodixine), vitamin B7 (Biotin), vitamin C (Ascorbic acid), vitamin D (Cholecalciferol), vitamin E (Tocopherol) and vitamin K.22 Also it contains high content of carotenoids, the sulphur containing amino acids methionine and cysteine flavonoids, tannins, alkaloids, triterpinoids, saponins, anthraquinone glycoside, proteins, carbohydrates, cardiac glycosides etc. These constituents are support the healing process, enhancing the angiogenesis and flow of blood at the wound site.23 Phytochemical Constituents in Moringa Oleifera Moringa Oleifera consists of anti-inflammatory, anti-spasmodic, anti-hipertensive, anti-cancer, antioxidant, anti-oxidant, anti-pyretic, anti-ulcer, anti-epileptic, diuretic, cholesterol lowering, renal, anti-diabetic, and anti hepatoprotective activities. Many article reported that the leaves contains phytochemical constituent having principle activities.7 Susanto, E et al reported that the gel base is a fat-based HPMC that can keep the right humidity of the wound area. In the ointment with a concentration of 4% Moringa leaves extract, the basic composition of the ointment and extract are in accordance with the required moisture, thus increasing the cell growth. In the ointment with a concentration of 4% Moringa leaves extract, the salve’s basic content is higher, thus increasing the moisture, and the cell growth will be more excessive compared to the HPMC, povidone iodine and 2% Moringa leaves extract salves. The results of this study showed that the ethanolic extract of Moringa leaves helps to accelerate the wound healing on the rat’s palate. It is hoped that the ethanolic extract of Moringa leaves gel can be used as a herbal remedy that can be used safely for the wound healing. This gel may be used to accelerate the healing of the palatal lesions in the procedure of obtaining a donor of connective tissue graft from the palate as an action in the periodontal surgery treatment.8 The article of “Phytoextract in wound healing” mentioned that moringa leafs containing phytochemical constituents which are essential for the wound healing. At the site of injury these are activated the platelet, macrophage, neutrophils, and fibroblast. Any infections are in the wound site healing become impaired and increasing the ROS damage the tissue. Main constituents present in leafs such as flavonoids, quionescinammic acid, saponin, tannins, triterpinoids, anthocyanin etc and also there structures are mentioned Phytoextract in wound healing by Prasanta K G and Anjali G done like some research work on it in that they come to know that is many constituent in that extract like that. And also specific functions and actions of flavonoids, tannins, quinones, anthocyanin, saponins are explained. These compounds have been shown to be an effective antioxidants, antimicrobial, and anti-carcinogenic agents. 24-25 [Table] Invivo articles that mentioned the importance of moringa olifera leaves for wound healing. Evaluation of aqueous leaves extract of Moringa olifera lam for wound healing by B S Rathi, S L Bodhankar and A M 188


Baheti mentioned that aqueous leaf extract of Moringa olifera investigated and concluded that it possess high wound healing activity. The extract was studied at doses level of 300mg/kg body weight using different type of wound like incision, excision, and dead space wound. The contribution of healing is depending on the different types of wound. And they observed that significant increase in wound closure rate, skin breaking strength, granuloma breaking strength, granuloma dry weight and decrease in scar area. And also observed that prohealing activity of leaves due to increased collagen deposition as well as better alignments and maturation.26 Effect of ethanolic extract of leaves of moringa olifera lam on acetic acid induced colitis in albino rats by Swarnamoni Das and Lalit Kanodia. In this article shows that experiment done by using 4 set of albino rat. Acute toxicity study was done and it shows that it improves the colon architecture by antioxidant enzyme, mainly catalase and superoxide dismutase. The leaves contain high amount of flavonoids it having anti-oxidant property and protective action against the oxidative stress induced cellular damage.27 Experimental project Moringa leaves extract compare with povidone-iodine application on Sprague Dawley rats, aged 2 - 3 months, weighing 250-300 grams. As much as sixteen rats were divided into four groups; group I was applied with 2% Moringa leaves extract gel; group II with 4% Moringa leaves extract gel; group III with 10% povidone-iodine; and group IV with 4% HPMC gel (vehicle only). Each group consisted of 15 rats, analysed on five periods, from day 0, 3, 7, 10, and 14 (with three rats in each analysing period). The wound was made on the palate using a 4 mm diameter biopsy punch. The measurement of the wound area diameter on day 0, 3, 7, 10, and 14, resulted in quantitative data analysed statistically. The fastest wound contraction was seen in the group with application of 4% Moringa leaves extract. In this group, decreasing of the wound area on day 3 reached 1 mm thus made the wound diameter became 3 mm wide. In the group with application of 2% Moringa leaves extract, decreasing of the wound area on day 3 reached 0.7 mm thus made the wound diameter became 3.33 mm wide; while in the group with application of povidoneiodine and HPMC, decreasing of the wound area on day 3 only reached 0.5 mm thus made the wound diameter became 3.5 mm. The highest decrease was seen in the group with application of 4% Moringa leaves extract, followed with the 2% Moringa leaves extract application group, povidone-iodine application, and HPMC application respectively.28 From the observed value of the wound healing process, it was assumed that the groups with Moringa leaves extract application showed better and faster healing than the control groups. Moringa plants have been practically used in the medicinal field for decades to heal various acute and chronic conditions. The properties of its phytochemicals, such as flavonoid and phenolic acids were related to the anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antibacterial activities.29 In a study conducted by Singh et al. in 2012, the antimicrobial activity of Moringa oleifera was examined using the main model of Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method, in which as much as 50% ethanolic extract of Moringa leaves successfully showed low antibacterial activity. Even at higher concentrations, the extract displayed only mild inhibitory activity, and no activity at all towards the Pseudomonas.30 Peixoto et al. in 2011 reported that the aqueous and ethanolic extract of Moringa leaves indicated a promising potential as a 189


treatment for certain bacterial infection. The aqueous and ethanolic extracts of Moringa leaves have antibacterial potential properties, with higher inhibitory effects on gram-positive species (Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis) over gramnegative species (Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, and Aeromonas caviae).31 Further, Waterman et al. reported that both Moringa leaves concentration and isothiocyanates decreased the gene expression and production of inflammatory markers in RAW macrophages. The Moringa leaves extract stimulated both cellular and humoral immune responses in cyclophosphamide-induced immunodeficient rats, by increasing the white blood cells, the percentage of neutrophils, and serum immunoglobulins.30 In addition, quercetin may have been involved in the reduction of the inflammatory process by inhibiting the action of neutral factor kappa-beta (NF-k_) and subsequent NF-kB-dependent downstream events and inflammation.32 IV.

Conclusion

In conclusion, it is proven in numerous cases that Moring olifera possesses a wide range of medicinal and therapeutic properties. Fot instance, in this paper it views the effectiveness of Moringa olifera leaves in wound healing process. Moringa olifera leaves having greater potential to facilitate and accelerate wound healing because Moringa olifera having rich amount of flavonoids, tannins and anthocyanin these constituents are potential to facilitate the anti-oxidant, anti inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties so it more helpful in therapeutic practices and research to develop new wound healing formulations for human use. It is good for human health because it is herbal in nature and side effects are very less. Moringa olifera providing good healing effect in different types of wound also it could be promoting natural anti-bacterial agents with potential applications in pharmaceutical industry.

Efficacy of Chitosan Wound Healing Potential as a Wound Dressing on Treating Acute Wound: a Systematic Review of Case Control Studies Michelle Gracella, Kennedy Artahsasta Gonbei, Muhammad Kholis Dzaky

Background : The trauma or other injuries always lead to varying degrees of damage and skin defects. Recent progress in wound management is mainly in terms of physiologic support of healing. Because infections delay healing and worsen scar formation, skin generally needs to be covered with a dressing immediately after it is damaged. Although several wound dressings materials have been developed, the problem of wound management is far from being solved. This big challenge of wound treatment for a faster wound healing and reducing the incidence of bacterial infection require an ideal wound dressing material Chitin, chitosan, and their oligomers have been found to promote wound healing. Chitosan, derived from natural resources, the structural element in the exoskeleton of crutaceans (crabs, shrimps, etc), and available abundantly, is considered as a promising material for tissue regeneration. Method : This study using journals that earnt scientific sources : PubMed. The search using certain criteria to ensure the eligibility and reliable on this study. After several assessment, we got 5 journals (n=5) as material of this study. We also gathered view grey literature to provide all data that is needed for better understanding on the study. Result : From 5 journals, Chitosan show variety result macroscopic. Chitosan dressing also use with various content containing, from synthetical to neutral element. But all of the result show a satisfying result, either in vitro or in vivo trial. Conclusion : Chitosan is has shown a well result of it effects on re-epithelization and also as anti-microbial. Both of them is something that we really require to dressing an acute wound such in injury and trauma cases. But not just that, in an acute and severe cases such burn wound, chitosan also shows a good result as wound dressing. Not to mention, chitosan can be applied in many forms of dressing and content any kind of material, from synthesis to natural element, without any effect on its biocompatibility and biodegradability. This shows how ideal chitosan as wound dressing. Keywords : Chitosan, wound dressing

Introduction Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is defined as a traumatically-induced structural brain injury or physiological disruption of brain function caused by an external force. Brain injuries can be classified into mild, moderate, and severe categories. Symptoms of mTBI can include headache, nausea, tinnitus, hypersensitivity to light, confusion and other cognitive disturbances. 1 Head injury is one of the commonest reasons for emergency department (ED) attendance worldwide. Yet, mTBI is often overlooked by clinical teams, as it is not easily identified in he ac e e ing. The inj ie

by clinical staff, who may be falsely reassured by negative CT imaging. Consequently, patients with mTBI are often discharged from the ED with basic written instructions, and little in the way of treatment.1 The assessment of patients with suspected TBI often relies upon neurological imaging such as CT scanning and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, CT has a low sensitivity for mTBI and exposes the patient to a significant dose of radiation. Conversely, MRI can provide information on the extent of cerebral parenchymal injury, but its availability in the acute setting is limited.1 Therefore, the biomarker can diagnose TBI on CT-: Ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase-L1 (UCH-L1) (Neuronal cell body injury markers): UCH-L1 is a protein that mainly resides in the neuronal cell body cytoplasm. It was one of the few TBI biomarker candidates identified based on recent proteomic studies.2,3 We reason that UCH-L1 is a functional biomarker and serves as a barometer of neuronal cell body injury. UCH-L1 was first found to be released into CSF and serum among severe TBI patients.4,5,6 Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)( Astroglial biomarkers): astroglial GFAP is emerging as the most robust TBI biomarker GFAP biomarker levels are elevated within 3 to 34 h in CSF and serum/plasma following severe TBI [46,52-55] and in serum and plasma samples after moderate to mTBI [56]. GFAP as a biomarker, in the form of either the GFAP intact protein (50kDa) or as breakdown products (GFAP-BDPs; 44-38 kDa) are predominantly released from injured brain tissue into biofluid such as cerebrospinal fluid and serum/plasma shortly followingTBI.7,8,13

It has been suggested that UCH-L1 together with GFAP form the foundation of a biomarker panel representing the two dominant cell types in the brain.14 Material and methods This paper was carried out a systematic review of Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) and Ubiquitin C Terminal Hydrolase-L1 (UCTH-L1) as a blood biomarkers of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) for the rapid diagnosed if the CT showed negative value but patients clinically indicated TBI.

UCH-L1 together with [7] GFAP form the foundation of a biomarker panel representing the two dominant cell types in the brain. GFAP is emerging as the most robust TBI biomarker. GFAP biomarker levels are elevated within 3 to 34 h in CSF. [17] plasma GFAP biomarker concentrations in the acute phase after head trauma identified patients with a suspected TBI and normal head CT who had detectable pathology on MRI, confirming the diagnosis of TBI. 27% of patients with a normal CT had positive findings on an MRI, demonstrating the diagnostic utility of GFAP prototype assay in development that provided GFAP concentrations over a dynamic range of 0 50 000 pg/mL. Unlike conven tional ELISA analysis, plasma GFAP concentrations can be


Indah, Denok, Triyan 6

quantified in as little as 15 min patients with GFAP concentrations more than 20 pg/mL (upper limit for orthopaedic trauma controls) but less than 140 pg/mL (lower limit for patients with negative CT and positive MRI) might have occult injury not visible on structural MRI Discussion Based on this systematic review we found that Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) and Ubiquitin C-Terminal Hydrolase -L1 (UCTH-L1) as Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) blood biomarker is a solution to help rapid diagnosed and may predict the prognosis of the patient. In diagnostic TBI, CT scan remain the main procedure to use, but eventually CT scan may show negative result but after MRI patient proved to had Traumatic Brain Injury that may absence by CT scan evaluation. Whereas MRI is the last weapon to used due to the radiation and we also need to realize that not all trauma center have MRI. Tha why finding a novel blod biomarker is essential for further diagnosis finding. Blood biomarker known for its uninvasive which is safer than the contrast or radiation CT or MRI have. A study conducted in USA use prototype immunoassay on the i-STAT (Abbott, Abbott Park, IL, USA) point-of-care platform show how within 15 minutes you may got the result of GFAP and UCTH-L1 serum analysis. Which is a rapid way compared to a conventional immunoassay well-known ELISA assay. GFAP compared to UCTH-L1 showed that GFAP have higher specificity while UCTH-L1 have higher sensitivity. Diagnostic threshold levels for GFAP 35 pg/ml and UCH-L140-170 pg/ml. Based on the clinical trial we also known that GFAP serum level may increased within 3 until 34 hours in CSF, which is usefull for us to know the better way to do the examination. Another clinical trial showed thata the best way to have a blood biomarker examination in this Traumataic Brain Injury case is within 24 hours.

Conclusion Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) and Ubiquitin C-Terminal Hydrolase -L1 (UCTH-L1) is effective to help Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) diagnostic and predict the prognostic. The examination of multi blood biomarker is recommended to conduct every possibility each biomarker may work in response to TBI. Some study based on cohort prospective clinical trial showed that GFAP may diagnosed the patients with CT negative

lack of TBI that actually suffer from mild TBI which is this kind of patient have the strong indication to do MRI test, and rapidly may go through the further management of TBI. This effective procedure is usefull to prevent unnecessary MRI radiation, and prevent undetectable TBI to prevent disability to untreated TBI.

The Use of Telemedicine to Ensure a Successful Traumatology Treatment Author: 1.) Mohammad Fahmi Akbar 2.) Muhammad Asmawi Alamsyah

Introduction Trauma injuries both physically and mentally is one of the major cause of death and disability in the world, especially in the developed countries. One of which is Indonesia. With many concerns regarding trauma injury these days, especially the one caused by traffic accident or road traffic accident in Indonesia, the treatment of trauma injury has become something crucial to know and skilled for in order to make sure that life can be saved and no life is wasted. One of the recent innovation in technology of medicine is the application of

a new

technology called telemedicine. Telemedicine can make it possible for a doctor to do a treatment of a trauma injury without even have to do it directly (face-to-face) with the patient of the said trauma. As time follows by along with the advancement of technology, telemedicine can be used as an effective and efficient care for traumatic patient and save lives of many people worldwide.

Materials and Methods The literature review method were used to review three literatures as follows An overview of telemedicine for trauma and emergency management (literature review and case report evaluation) The application of telemedicine for trauma and emergency in the ICU (systematic review) A cohort study for the usage of telemedicine in treating certain amount of severely injured rural trauma patients (observational cohort study)

217


Results and Discussion The following were the results of the research that has been done for all the three topics stated above in their respective orders: The development and utilization of telemedicine has occurred in high income areas and countries throughout the world. Although the application seems to be highly concentrated in the high income and crowded areas, the usage of telemedicine has offered specialty care to resource poor settings on a global level. For the most part, tele-ICUs have positive impacts on mortality and length of stay which the key revolves around communication, data review, and teamwork. Emergency department–based telemedicine consultation is requested for the most severely injured rural trauma patients, especially with those with penetrating trauma, burns, and abnormal presenting vital signs.

Conclusion Telemedicine has been proved to be effective for the treatment of physical traumatic injuries. There is still some problems and setbacks regarding the application of this technology especially in the rural areas. As for Indonesia, the practice of telemedicine still need some time to be developed in order to be used in its full extend. Further development and empowerment in natural and human resources were required. Future work should better educate how telemedicine impacts timeliness of care, diagnostic and therapeutic interventions, length-of-stay, hospital costs, and clinical outcomes. With major countries have the same issues of dealing with the lack of financial resources, uneven population growth, and most importantly limited number of healthcare professionals, the telemedicine technology has paved a way to a better and more promising healthcare system.

Introduction Trauma injuries both physically and mentally is one of the major cause of death and disability in the world, especially in the developed countries. One of which is Indonesia. With many concerns regarding trauma injury these days, especially the one caused by traffic accident or road traffic accident in Indonesia, the treatment of trauma injury has become something crucial to know and skilled for in order to make sure that life can be saved and no life is wasted. Trauma physical injuries can be considered an emergency situation and need to be treated as soon as possible with moderate to extreme care depending on the situation. As showed through the data of Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS), there were currently around as much as one hundred thousand number of road traffic accident in Indonesia for one year (2017) (Fig.1) (1). According to the Riset Kesehatan Dasar (Riskesdas) done by Badan Penelitian dan Pengembangan Kesehatan in 2018, the prevalence number of trauma injuries that occurred from 2007 to 2018 has been increased (Fig 2-5)(5). One of the recent innovation in technology of medicine is the application of a new technology called telemedicine. Telemedicine can make it possible for a doctor to do a treatment of a trauma injury without even have to do it directly (face-to-face) with the patient of the said trauma. This innovation can help saving lives of many people with physical trauma injuries, especially in a place with limited access to healthcare such as rural areas, villages, etc. Those places can be easily found scattered in the region of Indonesia. As time follows by along with the advancement of technology, telemedicine can be used as an effective and efficient care for traumatic patient and save lives of many people worldwide. With many researches that has been done regarding this certain issues about trauma and the correlation of telemedicine effectiveness, knowledge of whether the usage of it is useful or not has become something important for all of us to know. This scientific paper will provide you with some credible and reliable resource of researches regarding this specific issue to raise awareness and give descriptive view of a positive outlook for the future of medicine and healthcare. Although, it can’t be ignored that there must be some minor setbacks in the application of this technology which will be provided in the conclusion section below, this can also leave a room for improvement and innovation to make this technology practically better and

220


applicative for the future usage. The innovation in turned could be used practically for the developed countries in the future.

Materials and Methods In order to provide a reliable and credible research, there were around three literature that were reviewed as the material of this scientific paper. The source of the said literature will be provided in the references section below. The following is the list of topics that were discussed in the literature provided: An overview of telemedicine for trauma and emergency management (literature review and case report evaluation)(4) The application of telemedicine for trauma and emergency in the ICU (systematic review)(2) A cohort study for the usage of telemedicine in treating certain amount of severely injured rural trauma patients (observational cohort study)(3) With those topics stated, the study used some methods such as literature or systematic review, case report evaluation, and observational cohort study. The method of literature review of those three literatures and topics were used for this scientific paper.

Results and Discussion The development and utilization of telemedicine has occurred in high income areas and countries throughout the world. Although the application seems to be highly concentrated in the high income and crowded areas, the usage of telemedicine has offered specialty care to resource poor settings on a global level with the utilization of remote and internet-based system. telemedicine has emerged as a bridge between pre-hospital, community based and tertiary care allowing specialty care previously outside the scope of local healthcare (Tab.1).

221


From initial treatment of orthopedic and neurosurgical injuries to tube thoracostomies and EFAST assessment, telemedicine has the capability to provide expert guided mentoring of timely life-saving procedures. As for the limitation of the usage in rural areas, continued advancement in the future may provide a reliable solution for this issue(4). For the most part, tele-ICUs have positive impacts on mortality and length of stay which the key revolves around communication, data review, and teamwork(1). Emergency department– based telemedicine consultation is requested for the most severely injured rural trauma patients, especially with those with penetrating trauma, burns, and abnormal presenting vital signs. Future work should evaluate how telemedicine impacts the timeliness of care and specific care interventions(2). We realized that all of the data that has been used here were the data from USA medicine and healthcare system. We believed this to be a good standard of comparison if this technology were going to be applied effectively in Indonesia.

Conclusion Telemedicine has been proved to be effective for the treatment of physical traumatic injuries. The innovation of the technology provide an efficient and reliable healthcare system to treat this specific injury in a fast and precise way. Although it may seems to be used and utilized in high income areas, this has to be expected considering the amount of time and cost for the utilization of this technology. There is still some problems and setbacks regarding the application of this technology especially in the rural areas. Making the concentration of the application seems to be focused in the high income area. Continued advancement may be the key to provide solution for this problem. With major countries have the same issues of dealing with the lack of financial resources, uneven population growth, and most importantly limited number of healthcare professionals, the telemedicine technology has paved a way to a better and more promising healthcare system. As for the developed countries itself, especially Indonesia, the practice of telemedicine still need some time to be developed in order to be used in its full extend. Further development

222


and empowerment in natural and human resources were required. Future work should better educate how telemedicine impacts timeliness of care, diagnostic and therapeutic interventions, length-of-stay, hospital costs, and clinical outcomes.

I.

Introduction A corneal ulcer or ulcerative keratitis is a pathological condition of the cornea characterized by suppurative infiltrates accompanied by corneal defect from the epithelium to the stroma. Extensive corneal ulcers require prompt and precise treatment to prevent ulcer expansion and complications in the form of descemetocele, perforation, endophthalmitis, even blindness[1]. Turbidity in the cornea is the third leading cause of blindness in the world after cataracts and glaucoma. In Indonesia, corneal opacification has a fairly high prevalence of eye disorders. The results of Riset Kesehatan Dasar (RISKESDAS) 2013 showed that the prevalence of corneal turbidity due to corneal ulcers in Indonesia was 5.5% of all corneal opacities due to other eye diseases with the highest prevalence found in Bali (11.0%), followed by DI Yogyakarta (10.2%) and South Sulawesi (9.4%)[2]. A corneal ulcer can be caused by infection and non-infection. Infection can be caused by bacteria, fungi, viruses, and acanthamoeba. While non-infectious causes include chemicals both acidic and alcalic, radiation or temperature, Sjogren's syndrome, vitamin A deficiency, use of eye drops corticosteroid drugs and trauma[3]. One of causes of eye trauma is wrong habit of using contact lens. Contact lens was invented to correct vision in vision problems including myopia (near-sightedness), hypermetropia (far-sightedness), and astigmatism (both near and farsightedness)[4]. Approximately, more than 85 million people use contact lens worldwide[5]. Contact lens cause many changes in the eye, including reduces oxygen transmissibility, changes in tear film, and infection may develop in contact lens users[6]. Contact lens has capacity to change tear biochemistry on the cornea surface if its too close to cornea or changes in tear exchange (tear mixing) between pre-contact lens and post-contact lens compartement during blinking. The changes in ocular surface biochemistry not only could reduce defenses against microbes because of lack of ability to remove microbes from post-contact lens, but also changes the homeostasis in ocular surface, such as epithelial injury induced by post-contact lens tear film due to hypoxic epithelial cells[7]. Bacterial colonization on the contact lens will lead to corneal infection or keratitis and formation of ulcer[5].The most common bacteria associated with microbial keratitis in contact lens users are Staphylococcus and Pseudomonas species[8]. In bacterial corneal infections, bacterial toxins that penetrate the corneal epithelium into the stroma will activate macrophages which will then activate various pro-inflammatory cytokines namely interleukin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and TNF-

230


which subsequently affects several growth factor enzymes such as TGF- 1, FGF and PDGF as well as the extracellular matrix in the stroma. TGF- 1 i a er impor an growth factor in regulating MMP expression, especially MMP-9 and other collagenases which will stimulate MAPK signaling pathways and JNK-dependent fibronectinmediated that will affect activated keratocytes (activated keratocyte) thereby reducing proliferation and differentiation of keratocytes into myofibroblasts in corneal wound healing[9]. Quick and appropriate treatment is needed to prevent ulcers widespread, namely by eradicating the causes of corneal ulcers and also preventing tissue damage due to enzymes and toxins released by bacteria. Eradication of bacteria can be done by giving broad-spectrum antibiotics topically, such as fluoroquinolone or the antibiotic combination if monotherapy is not effective in treating infections[10]. If inflammation occur in the cornea, macrophages will clease debris and trigger cell apoptosis by expressing various mediators. Mediators for angiogenesis like VEGFA, VEGF-C, and VEGF-D will increase during inflammation. [11]. At present, using herb plants as treatment in disease began to develop. One of plants that is often used is onion plants (Allium sp.). Onion is famous as a medicinal plant because it is rich in flavonoids, namely flavonolsquercetin. A study says that quercetin has the ability as an anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antiallergic, antioxidant, and cardioprotective agent[12]. Besides, quercetin can also inhibit Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) in inducing choroidal angiogenesis and retinal in vitro [13]. Onion (Allium cepa L.) was chosen because it contains more quercetin than garlic (Allium sativum) viz at 54-286 mg / kg. Meanwhile, garlic (Allium sativum) has a quercetin content of 1.7 mg / kg

[14]

. Due to higher quercetin content, we use onion

(Allium cepa L.) as an alternative treatment for contact lens-related corneal ulcer. II. Materials and Methods This study method is using a literature review which is to compile based on online databases ob ained hro gh earch engine ncbi , Sciencedirec , ha

The inclusion criterias that we use are (1) the study was no later than 2009, (2) was trustworthy, and (3) correlated with the aim of this study. The studies which not meet the criterias were excluded. III. Result and Discussion 1. Corneal Wound Healing Corneal wound healing is a complex process that aims to maintain the integrity and health of the corneal surface epithelium so that the transparency of the cornea and our vision is maintained. Anatomically Corneal wound healing can be divided into 3 stages: (1) Lag Phase, a quiescent time to prepare the wound healing (2) Active migration/reepithelization of superficial cell sheets to cover the denuded surface (3) Proliferation, stratification, and differentiation[15]. There are several growth factors/cytokines that play an important role in the mechanism of corneal wound healing, namely (1) epidermal growth factor family, (2) hepatocyte growth factor / HGF, (3) keratinocyte growth factor / KGF, (4) Insulin-like growth factors / IGFs, (5) transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-b) and etc[16]. 2.

Onion is known as a plant that has a lot of potential for use in the medical field because of its phytochemical content which has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antimicrobial pharmacological effects[17]. The phytochemical which contained in onion are mainly saponin, quercetin, and anthocyanin[18]. Quercetin is one type of flavonoid in onions with the highest concentration of the entire flavonoid concentration, which is 80%-90%[19]. In addition, onion flavonoids also contain many active ingredients, such as allicin, essential oils (dipropyl disulfide, methyl

232


metantiosulfonate), minerals (potassium, phosphorus, calcium, manganese, sodium, sulfur, iron, zinc, copper, and selenium in small amounts ), vitamins (Vit C, folic acid, Vit E) and amino acids (glutamic acid, arginine, lysine, glycine)[20]. 3. Flavonoid Flavonoids are secondary metabolites that can be easily found in food and plants except for algae. Flavonoids are derivatives of polyphenol compounds which cause flavonoids to have polar properties so they can easily penetrate the peptidoglycan membrane. Flavonoids have a chemical chain composed of two substituted benzene rings connected by one three-carbon aliphatic chain (C6-C3C6)[18]. Flavonoids have a diversity that is determined by the location of the hydroxyl group on the carbon atom which is arranged using a numbering system. There are flavonoid compounds in the form of aglycones only and some are in the form of glycosides (aglycones and sugars). Flavonoids also bind to sulfate groups called flavonoid sulfates and some are bound to other flavonoids called biflavonoids[21]. Quercetin is one type of flavonoid in onions. Quercetin levels in onions are 300 mg / dl[18] or 13.27 mg / 100 g[21]. Most quercetin found in onions is glycosides (bound to glucose groups) or ether. The quercetin that found in onions mostly present in conjugated form as quercetin 4´-O- -glycopyranoside, quercetin 3, 4´-O- diglycopyranoside, andquercetin3,7, 4´-O- -triglycopyranoside[18].

Figure 1 Chemical stucture of quercetin[18] 4. Antimicrobial Activity Many studies have proven that flavonoids have antimicrobial effects. Flavonoids are proven to have antimicrobial abilities against gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, and Streptococcus mutans, gram-negative bacteria such as Helicobacter pylori, Poryphomonas gingivalis[18], and Pseudomonas aeruginosa[12]. Meanwhile, gram-negative bacteria are more resistant than gram-

233


positive bacteria. Flavonoids have three antimicrobial pathways, namely: (1) directly kill the bacteria, (2) synergistically activate the antibiotics, and (3) attenuate the bacterial pathogenicity[17]. In a previous study, the tests of the quercetin effectivity on gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria showed significant results in which gram-negative bacteria were more resistant. Quercetin gives results of IZ (inhibition zone) 15.0 Âą1.0 mm, MIC (minimal inhibitory concentration) 40 mg on Staphylococcus aureus and IZ 11.8 mm Âą1.0, MIC 100 mg on Pseudomonas aeruginosa[12].

In other study, it was

mentioned that the minimum inhibitory concentration (KHM) of onion extract against Staphylococcus aureus in vitro studies with the turbidimetry method, and UV-Vis spectrophotometry was at a concentration of 1.56%[22]. Table 1 The concentration of onion extract on the diameter area inhibits the growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa[20] Sampel

Antioxidant Activity Flavonoids in onions have been shown to have antioxidant activity that can prevent contact between Reactive Oxygen Species and cells and tissues. Onion skin has a lot of quercetin, quercetin glycoside, and other oxidative products which have an active role as antioxidants for non-enzymatic lipid peroxidation and oxidation of lowdensity lipoproteins (LDL) [18]. Based on previous studies, quercetin is known to have six mechanisms of actions as antioxidants, namely: (1) Anti-oxidative action, (2) direct radical scavenging action, (3) inducible nitric oxide synthetase inhibitory

234


action, (4) xanthine oxidase inhibitory action, (5) modulation of gene expression, and (6) interaction with other enzyme systems[21]. Flavonoids work as antioxidants by donating hydrogen atoms and an electron to hydroxyl and peroxyl to stabilize it. The hydroxyl configuration of the aromatic B ring in flavonoids has an important role in binding ROS. While the heterocyclic rings on flavonoids function to initiate the conjugation between free 3-OH and aromatic rings. Besides, flavonoids can process metal chelating properties, while quercetin itself has the ability to iron-stabilize and iron-chelating attributes that play a role in stopping the formation of free radicals[18].

FLAVONOID EXTRACTION Onion extract is made using maceration method with 96% ethanol as solvent. 4 kg of onions are peeled and washed thoroughly, and cut into small pieces. Onion pieces are put in room temperatur with good air ventilation till dry. Dried onion pieces are mashed with a blender. The maceration process is carried out 2 times, first mixed with 96% ethanol with a ratio of ethanol: simplicia that is 1: 4. After that, allowed to stand for 2 days and filtered using filter-paper so that the result of maceration of filtrate I. The result of maceration of filtrate I was mixed again with 96% ethanol and allowed to stand for 2 days. Then filtered again using filter paper and obtained the results of the maceration of filtrate 2. Then the results of the maceration of filtrate 2 obtained were evaporated from the remaining solvent using a vacuum rotary evaporator for 3 hours at 40ยบC. After that, the pure extract of the onion is put into the oven for 2 hours at 40ยบC, then put in a sterile sealed bottle and stored in the refrigerator[22].

235


IV. Conclussion Quercetin in onion (Allium cepa L.) has antimicrobial and antioxidant that could improve corneal wound healing in corneal ulcer induced by contact lens. Based on previous research on contact lens-related corneal ulcer, contact lens may cause corneal abrasion. Corneal abrasion can lead to corneal ulcer because contact lens increase bacterial colonization. Most bacteria found in contact lens-related corneal ulcer are Pseudomonas sp. And Staphyloccocus sp. Based on literature we found, Quercetin as antimicrobes is effective in gram positive bacteria, like Staphyloccocussp. and gram negative bacteria like Pseudomonas sp. Nevertheless, antimicrobial activity in gram negative is not as strong as gram positive.

ABSTRACT Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) induces structural injuries and/or physiological disruptions of brain function as a result of an external force, leading to temporary or even permanent impairment of the central nervous system and increase the morbidity and mortality rate. Secondary of TBI can not be ignored because has many impact on neuronal damage and loss. The most frequent case which happened are excessive oxidative stress and calcium release after brain injury. Although some traditional antioxidants have been clinically approved, the efficacy is far from statifactory due to their low ROS-scavenging efficiency, instability, toxicity, or inadequate penetration of blood–brain barrier. Moreover, combination of Nanozyme based-bandage with Pt/CeO2 atom catalysis with electrospinning nanofibers Ntype voltage gated calcium channel blocker (SNX-185) is predicted to be as promising as a potential novel to reduce secondary injury of TBI. Therefore, the duo could cut down morbidity and mortality rate because of TBI in the future with noninvasive way.

Combination of Nanozyme-based Bandage with Pt/CeO2 Atom Catalysis and Electrospinning Nanofibers N-Type Voltage-gated Calcium Channel Blocker (SNX-185): A Potential Novel Way to Reduce Secondary Injury of Traumatic Brain Injury Alfiani Zukhruful Fitri Rifa’i. Rizqi Apsari Fairuz Kamila Introduction Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are induced structural injuries and/or physiological disruptions of brain function as a result of an external force, leading to temporary or even permanent impairment of the central nervous system and causing morbidity and mortality1. The exact number of head injuries incidence is difficult to determine due to various factors, for example some of the fatal cases never reach the hospital. Based on Riskesdas 2018 traumatic brain injury accounts for 11,9% proportion of body part affected in motor vehicle crashes other than all of the other body parts2. One of the major causes of secondary injury from a TBI is an overproduction of Reactive Oxygen Nitrogen Species3,4. Experimental and clinical studies have emphasized the importance of generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) as occurring in the early post-traumatic stages of the injury process5. Oxidative stress (OS) leads to irreversible neuronal membrane damage, resulting in a pattern of secondary injury mechanisms ultimately leading to dysfunction and cell death 6. Recent studies have shown evidence that neuroinflammation associated with TBI can also contribute to posttraumatic neurodegeneration3,7 The body naturally produces endogenous antioxidants, such as superoxide dismutase and glutathione molecules, to inhibit these increases in ROS production. However, if the TBI produces more ROS than the antioxidants, lipid peroxidation, DNA and protein damage8. To eliminate these excessive amount of ROS, antioxidant is needed. One of the biggest disadvantages of traditional antioxidant bandage is that it can lose efficacy after long-term exposure at room temperature due to limited electron-donating ability9. Regarding this case, a nanozyme-based bandage using single-atom Pt/CeO2 with a persistent catalytic activity is studied to find an alternate noninvasive treatment of neurotrauma in brain injury.

Keywords used are traumatic brain injury, nanozymes, antioxidant, and reactive oxygen nitrogen species (RONS), Calcium Channel Blocker, SNX-185, Electrospinning nanofiber with filters used are 10 years from publication date. From the search results, the journal is selected with 40 literatures are valid and reliable to our discussion. Level of evidence this literature review is Level 2A determined based on classification under license of Oxford Centre for Evidence-based Medicine Level of Evidence10. Results and Discussion Reactive Oxygen Nitrogen Species (RONS) Timely Removal is Essential Due to Irreversible Brain Damage An estimated 5.3 million traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivors are currently suffering long-term or life-long motor deficits11. However, currently there are no effective neuroprotective treatments12 because their effectiveness may be limited. In TBI, primary injury occurs at the time of trauma and the direct result is deformation of the brain tissue and disruption of normal brain function. Secondary injury is extensive and lasting damage such as neuroinflammation with excessive oxidtive stress which is believed as the main cause of neuron loss13. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) with unpaired electrons triggered by inflammation are among the most important elements for TBI 4. Mitochondrial ROS production contributes to innate immune activation after cellular damage and stress14. Toxicity of ROS to biomolecules causes activation of microglia and astrocytes. As a result, inflammatory and neurotoxic factors are released and trigger more oxidative stress, hence causing a chronic neuroinflammatory response13.

In humans, post-mortem studies have shown microglial activation can be present up to 17 years after TBI. This suggests that TBI triggers a chronic inflammatory response particularly in subcortical regions15. Therefore, timely removal of harmful ROS is essential for neuron protection. Traditional Antioxidant Has Limitation and Drawbacks for Tackling Oxidative Stress Damage in Traumatic Brain Injury Cell-based therapy has been shown to reduce neuroinflammation and improve functional recovery after TBI16. Studies with multiple antioxidant agents have demonstrated effectiveness in decreasing the secondary brain injury, which is a principal focus of current TBI research17,18,19. In addition to these ROS producers, there is also an antioxidant system in the body that can scavenge ROS. When the balance of redox is disturbed, then lead to oxidative stress, resulting in the damage of many macromolecules (e.g., DNA, protein, and lipid) which cause inflammation and many neurological diseases4. Traditional ROS regulators, such as some natural enzymes and assemblies based on them, have not been well applied in brain diseases due to their low ROS-scavenging efficiency, instability, toxicity, or inadequate penetration of blood–brain barrier20. For example, traditional intravenous administration of organic enzymes has shown great potentials in brain diseases21,22 but toxicity remains a major concern for clinical translation23. Thus, nanotechnology can maximize the therapeutic efficacy while minimizing the side effects24. Nanozymes, stable inorganic nanomaterials that possess intrinsic enzymemimic activities, have efficient ability to alleviate oxidative stress in the central nervous system. Compared with traditional antioxidants, these nanozymes have advantages of stable structure, adjustable activity, and diverse functions20. RONS Scavenging Activity in Enzyme-mimetic Properties of single-atom Pt/CeO2 in Elimination of Excessive Oxidative Stress As explained earlier, nanozymes have enzyme-mimetic activity mainly contain SODlike (Superoxide Dismutase) or catalase-like activities, which can effectively remove ROS accumulated in the body20. After TBI, an assembly of oxidative stress markers (RONS) are produced in the brain, while antioxidant defense enzymes decrease (GSH, ratio GSH/GSSG, GPx, SOD, CAT)25. Both of CeO2 and Pt have SOD-like and catalase-activity26,27. In otherwords, nanozymes

245


have been reported to possess multiple antioxidative enzyme-like activities under the same condition and show effective neuroprotective effects20.

The procedure for the bandage fabrication use hydrophilic polyacrylonitrile fiber that has been activated. It then immerged into the specific nanozyme solution for 30 min. After being vacuum-dried and annealed for 1 h, fiber loaded with nanozyme was attached to the medical tape for further wound application23.

Compared with previous IV injection routes for nanozymes the bandage can be an alternative solution for TBI noninvasive treatment via rational design at the single-atom level without side effects23.

The nanozyme-based bandage was attached to the injured brain area of TBI mice. The wound size and area were both significantly reduced to the healthy levels after receiving bandage treatment, whereas the untreated mice only showed a partial recovery (âˆź50%)23. Brain injuries also mediate both expression of inflammatory cytokines and recruitment of astrocytes and microglia in the injured area, but the nanozyme-based bandage alleviates levels of inflammatory factors and activation of astrocytes and microglia, leading to a decrease in overall neuroinflammation23. Both in vitro and in vivo results show that the nanozyme-based bandage can decrease indicators of oxidative stress and inflammation responses of neuron cells and improve impaired neurocognition. It has a promising frontier for noninvasive treatment of TBI using nanozymes for single-atom catalysis. Nanofibers N-Type Voltage-gated Calcium Channel Blocker (SNX-185) with Electrospinning Technique for Traumatic Brain Injury Calcium ions (Ca2+) are essential in the regulation of many cellular systems Disruption of calcium regulation, specifically prolonged periods of elevated cytosolic free calcium, can be catastrophic for the cell leading to chronic dysfunction or death.

Fig. 7. Patoghenesis of Traumatic Brain Injury N-type VGCCs play a critical role in many developmental and pathological events in neurons, and have been studied in models TBI35,36. N-type channels are found on the soma, dendrites, and axons of neurons throughout the brain37. Pre-clinical studies carried out in vivo in animal models of TBI report that selective blockade of N-type VGCCs results in decreased calcium accumulation in areas of TBI, preservation of mitochondrial function, and improved behavioral outcome when administered after TBI in rats35.

248


SNX-185 is a synthetic version with highly selective N-type VGCC blocker that demonstrates improved bioavailability and more prolonged persistence in brain tissue than SNX-11135. These data suggest that SNX-185 treatment, even when delayed for hours after initial insult, may be effective in preventing or reducing calcium-related secondary injuries that occur clinically over many hours or days after injury35. Secondary insults such as ischemia and hypoxia often occur after human TBI 35. Several techniques have been reported to produce nanofibers such as pressurized gyration technique, self assembly, phase separation and freeze drying 38,20. However, all of these techniques are not ideal for wound dressing’s fabrication as this techniques would fail in providing adequate diffusion of oxygen and nutrients into cells resulting in failure of cells migration, proliferation and compensation. On a contrary situation, electrospinning technique was reported to overcome all of the previously mentioned drawbacks through producing well controlled ultrafine nanofibers mimicking the extracellular matrices in human body39. In addition, electrospinning is a costeffective, ecofriendly and facile technique40.

Fig. 8. A schematic representation of SNX-185 Nanofibers Conclusion Combination of Nanozyme-based Bandage with Pt/CeO2 Atom Catalysis and Electrospinning Nanofibers N-Type Voltage-gated Calcium Channel Blocker (SNX-185) can reduce secondary injury caused by Traumatic Brain Injury. It has relation with RONS scavenging activity in enzyme mimetic properties by Pt/CeO2 to eliminate the excessive oxidative stress. In other hands, electrospinning nanofibers SNX-185 is the most likely promising concept because other blockade mechanism of calcium channel has a lot of limitation and drawbacks. The combination between both elements have no spesific drug interaction effect. Larger multi-center studies and research for the duo should be furthermore conducted to get more scientific evidence.

Treatments of Blunt Cardiac Injury and How Mortality Rates Could be Reduced Catherine Kamaladevi, David Christiadi, Miriam Angeli Islamyah, Jerrick Lo Abednego (A Team)

Abstract Introduction Blunt cardiac injury (BCI) refers to injury sustained due to blunt trauma to the heart which is more common than penetrating injuries. Missed diagnoses and high mortality are major concerns in this injury. [2] Although an increasing number of cases have been diagnosed during the past few years, due to better equipment, the mortality rate is still high and majority of patients pass away before they arrive in the emergency department. [3] This is why blunt cardiac injury goes on mostly underdiagnosed. Methods We produced a literature review based on journals obtained on the PUBMED library. We queried blunt cardiac injury in the PUBMED library, and revealed 1361 articles by the time of writing. Articles are chosen based on correspondence to our thought process. Result and discussion Despite blunt cardiac injury being a difficult condition to diagnose, a few diagnostic measures can be taken to reduce misdiagnoses, such as the use of cardiac markers troponin I, serum NTproBNP, echocardiography and transesophageal echocardiography. The use of NT-proBNP as an adjunct assessment to other diagnostic test such as troponins, ECG, chest x-ray and echocardiogram should be done for BCC in trauma diagnosis. [20] TEE can be the best method for patients who suffered polytrauma and frequently connected to life support devices. [19] Conclusion We conclude that underdiagnoses of blunt cardiac injury occurs due to the inability of clinicians to recognize the importance of diagnosing (or excluding the diagnosis of) blunt cardiac injury.

Although the current technology available as instruments for blunt cardiac injury are sufficient, the lack of suspicion from clinicians cause the diagnosis of blunt cardiac injury to be underdiagnosed.

Introduction And always with a heart contusion arise both doubt and much confusion: a quote by Burchell in 1935 still stands true today. [1] Blunt cardiac injury (BCI) refers to injury sustained due to blunt trauma to the heart which is more common than penetrating injuries. Missed diagnoses and high mortality are major concerns in this injury. [2] Blunt injury to the heart ranges from subtle alterations in functions and electrical conduction (concussion) to myocardial contusion, and in the worst case, death. The term myocardial contusion, however, is generally used to denote the whole spectrum of cardiac pathology from non-penetrating trauma. Although an increasing number of cases have been diagnosed during the past few years, due to better equipment, the mortality rate is still high and majority of patients pass away before they arrive in the emergency department. [3] The symptoms of cardiac contusion are variable and frequently unnoticed by the anxious and often multiply traumatized patients whose cardiac symptoms are overshadowed by musculoskeletal injuries.[4] This is why blunt cardiac injury goes on mostly underdiagnosed. Multiple case and autopsy studies have revealed that the most common cause of blunt cardiac injury is motor vehicle accidents. Below are the studies reviewed and their specific percentages, arranged from the most recent year published.

As we review further, it has come to our attention that we had not found any data regarding blunt cardiac injury from Indonesia. It is interesting as the most common mechanism for blunt cardiac

269


injury is MVC, and the amount of motor vehicle collisions in Indonesia is high. According to Korlantas Polri, from 31st December 2018 to 31st March 2019, are 28,272 in which 5,918 passed away. [5] This would mean if one were to conduct a data study of BCI in Indonesia, there would be an abundance of information. However, we also understand that blunt cardiac injury is a difficult diagnosis. To this date, it is beyond our knowledge if a study on blunt cardiac injury performed in Indonesia have been done before.

Objective To present recent developments in the understanding of treatments and diagnosis for blunt cardiac injury, and suggest better treatments so that mortality rates could be reduced.

Method We produced a literature review based on journals obtained on the PUBMED library. We queried blunt cardiac injury in the PUBMED library, and revealed 1361 articles by the time of writing. Articles are chosen based on correspondence to our thought process. Articles are then filtered through its clinical significance to our paper. For example, when looking for statistics, only those of autopsy studies in the various decades are taken to produce a trend. Although we understand that only papers of the past 5 years are the most reliable, we realized that blunt cardiac injury has only few data studies. Hence, we decided that including papers of the past 30 years is acceptable to compare. Articles are chosen and filtered by early November to midNovember 2019.

Discussion Epidemiology In the United States, trauma ranks as the fourth leading cause of death. [6] 25% of trauma-related

270


deaths are associated with thoracic injuries. [7] Determining the incidence of cardiac injury after blunt chest injury is difficult due to the absence of clear diagnostic guidelines to direct management. [6] The incidence of blunt cardiac injury according to CDC is approximately 30,000 cases per year. Based on a case report, following blunt chest trauma, the incidence of cardiac injury ranges between 8% to 86%. [2] A study obtained data from the National Trauma Data Bank (NTDB) from January 2007 to December 2015 and concluded that from 4,571,161 adult patients, 0.3% had BCI. Most patients involved were male (67.9%) and had an average age of 48.8 years. The mortality rate for patients with BCI is identified to be 19.1%. [8] The largest causative mechanism for blunt cardiac injury is motor vehicle collision (72%) and auto versus pedestrian (16%). From 93.7% of patients with blunt cardiac rupture who were alive upon arrival to the hospital, only 10.8% survived. Patients who survived to discharge from the hospital were younger. [9] Aortic rupture is present in 24% of people. Death in the scene is more consistent with patients with thoracic aortic injury than those without injury. [10] The incidence of cardiac injury is lower in pediatric, varying between 15-20%. The survival time may vary in patients with BCI. In 56% patients, the survival time is recorded to be less than 24 hours, whilst in 44% patients, the survival time is more than 24 hours. [3] Cardiac trauma in children occur more often in boys, predominantly due to motor vehicle versus pedestrian accidents. Deaths from blunt myocardial injury came from child abuse rather than automobile trauma. [11] Although pediatric cardiac injuries caused by motor vehicle collision are more common than by firearm injury, more deaths from cardiac injury in pediatrics occur in firearm injury. Rib trauma are associated with blunt cardiac injury. [4] Mechanism The mechanism of cardiac injury involves a sequence of events beginning with direct impact to the chest wall with transmission of the kinetic force to the patient, causing compression of the heart between the sternum and the spine. This results in a change of the inertia of the viscera and the momentum of the blood column. Cardiac injury has been reported after deceleration from velocities of less than 20 mph. Another mechanism of injury to the heart without direct chest trauma is seen during cases of abdominal and lower extremity trauma. In such cases, upward displacement of the viscera can result in cardiac injury, a phenomenon known as the Hydraulic Ram Effect . Cardiac injury also may be caused by severe changes in atmospheric pressure surrounding the patient, as is commonly seen in cases of explosion victims. Other mechanisms of

271


cardiac injury after blunt chest trauma include hypotension, anemia secondary to acute bleeding, hypoxia complicating lung injury, and increased intracranial pressure with head injury leading to elevated epinephrine levels (acute catecholamine storm), causing beta receptor desensitization, coronary vasoconstriction, and myocardial necrosis. [12, 13] Diagnosis Blunt cardiac injury is a difficult condition to diagnose, especially because it is a heterogeneous category of multiple specific injuries. Patients may come with unspecified symptoms as they may also have other injuries from a traumatic accident which masks the specific symptoms of BCI. The physical examination is often also nonspecific, although clinical findings such as ecchymosis, chest tenderness, flail chest and crepitus are markers for a high risk mechanism of injury.[14] If patients still experience chest pains after an inconclusive physical examination, EKG can be done to further screen for BCI. Many sources support the notion that EKG results can safely be trusted to differentiate malignant cardiovascular course from those that aren t. Blunt cardiac injury EKG picture could be shown as sinus tachycardia, arrhythmias, and ST segments changes.[15] Although an EKG could safely exclude emergent cases from those that could be handled therapeutically, the results are also said to be biased towards the right ventricle only. As most of the waves source from the right ventricle, problem areas in other cardiac chambers cannot be viewed well. There have been attempts to use specialized types of ECG to improve the predictive value of this modality, because the right ventricle is believed to be the more likely injured cardiac chamber in BCI.[17] From laboratory test, CK-MB, CK-MB/CK total ratio, CK-MB mass, and CK-MB mass/CK total ratio was not useful in detecting myocardial damage after blunt chest trauma, based on Swaanenburg's research. Although CKMB-isoenzyme measurement is currently a recommended bio-chemical test for the detection of myocardial damage, it is less accurate in patients with chest trauma. As CKMB is present in a myocardial muscle and in skeletal muscle, CKMB from both types of tissue is released and causes blood values to be elevated in response to the injury.[17] Recently, the cardiac markers troponin I (cTnI) and troponin T (cTnT) have become another

272


laboratory test for cardiac markers. Troponin I and T form a complex that regulates the calciummodulated interaction of actin and myosin in striated muscle.[17] To be more specific, cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is a cardiac regulatory protein found only in cardiac tissue, elevations have high sensitivity for detecting myocardial injury, the elevations of cTnI persist for 4 to 7 days in plasma, providing a convenient time frame for identifying myocardial injury. The excellent diagnostic sensitivity of cTnI for cardiac injury is because of the large amount of cTnI in myocardium, which is many times greater than concentration of CKMB. Measuring the concentration in serum of cTnI is harder and less costly than using echocardiography as a routine screening test to detect cardiac injury after blunt chest trauma.[18] Based on a study results, Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) more preferred to use than Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) due to TEE can predictably provide stable high-quality tomographic images of the heart and thoracic aorta in nearly all patients. TEE can be used with less difficulties and resulted with important information to help on developing treatment for the patient. The study also get another function of TEE which could detect or exclude aortic dissection with high sensitivity and specificity. TEE can be the best method for patients who suffered polytrauma and frequently connected to life support devices.[19] Another study revealed they identified a significant increase from serum NT-proBNP level during the first 5 hours after Blunt Cardiac Contusion from the BCC group as one of the laboratory tests. If the BNP values increased above from the thresholds, it could means an abnormality of heart function. The early increased of NT-proBNP level may be explained by the direct myocardial cell damage caused by BCC. The use of NT-proBNP as an adjunct assessment to other diagnostic test such as troponins, ECG, chest x-ray and echocardiogram should be done for BCC in trauma diagnosis.[20] Myocardial contusion is one of the most common but ambiguous, cardiac diagnoses which made after patients experienced a blunt chest trauma. Some clinicians may apply the label of myocardial contusion to all patients who experiencing chest soreness with elevation of serum cardiac biomarkers after a blunt chest trauma, the diagnosis of subclinical Myocardial Contusion itself can

273


be done with echocardiography, gated cardiac radionuclide angiography (MUGA), or myocardial perfusion imaging but similarly may not affect outcome in stable patients.[21] Clinical Presentations Blunt cardiac injury could present itself variously, from cardiac concussion to cardiac contusion. However, as cardiac contusion is a more common form of presentation of cardiac injury, it is mostly used to represent blunt cardiac injury as a term overall. Myocardial contusion, histologically, is characterized by intramyocardial hemorrhage, edema and necrosis of myocardial muscle cells. [13] This is similar to findings in myocardial infarction. The distinction between them is that in contusion, there is a visible boundary between normal and contused tissue, while in infarction there is a gradual transition from the normal to infarcted tissue. The area of injury is only determined by the force in which the contusion were dissipated. There is no effect on coronary artery flow, unlike in myocardial infarction. Macroscopically, superficial areas of hemorrhage in the epicardium extend in a pyramidal fashion and transmurally.[22] The healing patterns of myocardial infarction and myocardial contusion are different too. Myocardial infarction heals in a generalized fibrotic manner, while myocardial contusion heals with patchy and irregular fibrosis.[23] Myocardial concussion, from myocardial contusion, is distinguished by its lack of myocardial cellular damage, assessed both histopathologically and chemically. There is no CPK released in the myocardium. This does not exclude their risks for developing arrhythmias, though, as the damage is still present. Concussion usually occur due to a blow to the sternum, while contusion from trauma to any thoracic site.[4] A study by Richard C Frazee in 1986 suggests that the diagnosis for contusion and concussion is made based on 2-DE results. If 2-DE is normal, then the diagnosis is to be cardiac concussion, and release of the patient is confidently done. Although, there is no other study that analyses the use of 2-DE for blunt cardiac injury. Other complications that might occur together with cardiac contusions and concussions include, cardiac rupture, valvular injuries, pericardial involvement, vascular injuries and dysrhythmias.

274


Treatments Any therapeutic management present for blunt cardiac injury results from treatments of its complications. As myocardial contusion usually occur with arrhythmias and pump failure, management is usually done in the ICU. However, when the diagnosis of myocardial contusion can be safely set aside (ex: when ECG doesn t indicate myocardial contusion), home medications while the patients are to be discharged can be safely done. Treatment of arrhythmias in patients with blunt cardiac injury can be done through antiarrhythmic protocols. As arrhythmias usually appear 24 hours after blunt cardiac injury, afterwards, diagnosis can be safely ruled out. [28] Intravenous thrombi can also appear as a consequence of myocardial contusion. This has been repeatedly demonstrated through the help of TEE. The management for thrombi is still controversial. The setting of trauma contraindicates the use of anticoagulants to combat thrombus. It could worsen the area of contusion-necrosis, promote intramural bleeding, or instigate tamponade by permitting bleeding in the pericardium. However, patients with intramural thrombosis is suggested to be given prophylaxis heparinization whenever beneficial. Management for cardiac output depression is done through intra-venous balloon and heparinization. Contraindications for heparinization include low-output cardiac failure. The success rates for cardiac output increase is 12,5% plus minus 3,2% .[22] Whenever heparin isn t favored, the low molecular weight dextran is used for its antiplatelet effect.

Conclusion Constructing a diagnostic criteria for blunt cardiac injury remains difficult. We conclude that underdiagnoses of blunt cardiac injury occurs due to the inability of clinicians to recognize the importance of diagnosing (or excluding the diagnosis of) blunt cardiac injury. Although the current technology available as instruments for blunt cardiac injury are sufficient, the lack of suspicion from clinicians cause the diagnosis of blunt cardiac injury to be underdiagnosed. Clinicians should be more aware of the workups needed for blunt cardiac injury, to prevent underdiagnoses that causes complicated symptoms of patients, which increases the risks of death. Technology present are sufficient, as long as the knowledge of the physicians are enough.

Introduction Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating disease with a frequency of occurrence of 12.157.8 cases per million.(1) Based on several regional studies in United States, the incidence of spinal cord injury is estimated roughly 12,000 to 20,000 cases per year. (2) SCI can be caused by motor vehicle crash (41.1%), falls (26.7 %), violent acts (15.1%), sports (7.6%), and other (8.6%), including medical and surgical causes. Falls are the most common cause of SCI for eldery with age older than 60 years. The cervical level is the most commonly injured (54.1%) compared to thoracic, lumbal, and sacral levels. (3) SCI is a serious disease with high social economic cost associated with the significant disability and associated health expenses it causes.(1) The limitations on daily activities of spinal cord injury patient are depends on the location and completeness of the injury. The higher the level of the effected spinal cord, the more assistance needed for the patient to do their daily activities, otherwise patient with spinal cord injury level T1 or below generaly more independent in their activities. About 57.1 % individuals with spinal cord injury are employed before their injury, but this number decreased to 11.8% the next year.(4) This shows how spinal cord injury could effect ones capability to work. Acute and long-term secondary medical complications are common in patients with SCI. however, chronic complication especially further negatively impact on patients’ functional independence and quality of life. therefore, prevention, early diagnosis and treatment of chronic secondary complications in patients with SCI is critical for limiting these compications, improving survival, community participation and health-related quality of life.(7) Frequent complications of cervical and high thoracic SCI are neurogenic shock, bradyarrhythmias, hypotension, ectopic beats, abnormal temperature control and disturbance of sweating, vasodilatation and autonomic dysreflexia. Due to physical inactivity and altered haemostasis, patients with SCI have a higher risk of venous thromboembolism and pressure ulcers. The psychological stress associated with SCI may lead to anxiety and depression.(8) Goals in the management of SCI-patients include minimizing the primary neurological damage, and preventing secondary cord injury due to hypoperfusion, ischemia, and apoptotic, biochemical and inflammatory changes. After a traumatic SCI, the number of complications during the acute phase hospitalization, depends on the timing of surgery, with less complications when surgery is performed soon after the injury. In the Trauma Audit and Research Network database, the percentages of neurogenic shock was 19.3% in cervical injuries. In thoracic and lumbar injuries the reported incidence was 7.0% and 3.0%, respectively.(9)

Results and discussion Primary SCI refers to the neural elements damage at the time of trauma, such as shear force to axon or blood vessels and results to irreversible injury. Secondary SCI refers to the body’s response to the primary injury. A host cellular cascades has been identified to occurs immediately after injury and may persist for the next months to years, these will exacerbate the underlying injury and prevent neurologic recovery.(5) Current SCI treatment focus on stabilization of the spinal column to prevent further damage, supportive management to prevent secondary injury, and measures to enhance cord perfusion. Acute care for these patients can be provided in the intensive care unit (ICU), an intermediated care unit, or a surgical unit of a hospital, depending on the stability of the patient’s vital sign, the injured spinal level snd severity, also other associated injuries.(3) Early

282


surgical decompression is playing an increasing role in the treatment of acute SCI. In terms of safety, the treating surgeon must balance the potential benefits of early surgery versus the risk. The benefits include relieving cord compression and therefore limiting secondary injury. The risks include aggravating secondary injury by hypotensive episodes or blood loss. (5) Pharmacologic agents such as methylprednisolone are controversial but have purported benefits in improving neurologic function in some patients. (3) Based on a study of 169 adults, urinary tract infections (62%), autonomic dysreflexia (43%), and pressure ulcers (41%) are common complications in the first year after inpatient rehabilitation for SCI. These complications are often recurrent, and more likely affect people with higher impairment levels.(6) Gray and white matter damage after SCI leads to partial or complete motor, sensory, or autonomic deficit in parts of the body distal to the lesion site. In accordance, the most devastating of all SCIs are injuries of the cervical spine, accompanied by high-grade dysfunction of the central nervous system (CNS).(10) In the past, treatment of spinal cord injury seemed frustrating and hopeless because of the remarkable morbidity and mortality and restricted therapeutic options. The traditional approach to SCI has been to limit the secondary injury that follows trauma more than to repair damage which is much more difficult. Treatments might target the cellular and matrix changes that occur at the injury site, the regenerative perikaryal responses that occur in injured neurons or the reactions of neuronal and non-neuronal cells located beyond the lesion, especially neutrophils and microglia.(11) Interventions that have been combined with transplants to promote repair and/or recovery include the application of neurotrophic or growth factors, pharmacological agents that mimic the action of neurotransmitters, agents that interfere with inhibitors of growing axons and physical rehabilitation and training. Most treatments are devoted to cure acute injury, whereas chronic injury is a more challenging. A key element in restoring function after a spinal cord injury through cell transplantation will be the replacement of damaged neural tissue (neurons, oligodendrocytes) to re-establish connections between central and peripheral nervous system. There are two types of bone marrow stem cell, hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which are known to differentiate into hematopoietic and mesenchymal cell lineages. (11) For clinical transplantation, HSCs and MSCs represent attractive cell sources as they can be easily and reproducibly isolated from bone marrow aspirates and reintroduced into patients as autografts. One research found successful results were obtained with different cell types: embryonic stem cells, adult neural stem cells, fetal tissue, myelin producing cells and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). (12) Stem cell transplantation is a promising and attractive cell-based treatment modality for repairing the damaged central nervous system, including SCI. Many studies have successfully applied stem cell-based therapy in animal models of SCI and they have achieved functional recovery. (13) Among a variety of types of stem cells, of particular interest is the availability of adult stem cells as a source for cell transplantation. Unlike embryonal or fetal origin stem cells, using adult stem cells avoids ethical and moral problems as well as teratogenic and oncogenic risks. Some groups have especially focused on the potential of human umbilical cord blood (hUCB) derived-stem cells as a graft source for various intractable neurological disorders. (14) However, SCI has been less dealt with as a target disease for stem cell research, using hUCB derived-stem cells, as compared to other neurodegenerative diseases such as stroke. This may be in part because SCI has an impact on specific types of cells and tissue, including oligodendrocytes and axons. Therefore, the following review discusses the past and recent

283


findings on specific stem cell properties and the therapeutic potential of hUCB as a safe, feasible and effective cellular source for transplantation in patients with SCI. Despite all above-described successful cell-therapy experiments, it should be noted that under physiological conditions, allogeneic cell transplantation, independently of cell type, will be associated with immunological rejection unless proper immune suppression is provided. (15) Therefore, to circumvent this problem of immunological rejection, MSCs, nonhematopoeitic stem cells residing in the bone marrow, have received much attention nowadays. Indeed, such MSCs can be cultured relatively easily out of a bone marrow aspirate and have shown in vitro trans-differentiation potential into neural cells. After transplantation into brain and spinal cord, differentiation of MSCs into cells with neuronal and astrocyte characteristics was reported. Transplantation in demyelinated spinal cord resulted in proper remyelination, associated with enhanced conduction velocity, suggesting that cell transplantation might cause an influence through integration and/or differentiation of transplanted cells, but also by a possible paracrine effect, which can alter the local environment allowing for endogenous regeneration.

Conclusion As stated above, using stem cell methods for treatment and prevent complication of SCI show a good impact in improvement quality of life. However, further studies about stem cellbased treatment are needed to discover the most efficient way of stem cell administration into the injured spinal cord, also the side effects that follow. Thus, we still need more applied level of animal experimentation and translation into human clinical trials to know more about the effectivity of stem cell Table and figures Author and Year

Current Concept of Stem Cell Therapy for Spinal Cord Injury: A Review

Stem cell therapy in SCI provides a clue to solve the challenges which modern medicine cannot treat. A lot of basic research and clinical trials has already been tried using stem cell therapy and promising results have been also reported. If stem cell therapy in SCI is established, it will have a great progression on other incurable degenerative central nervous system disorders.

Concise Review: Bone Marrow for the Treatment of Spinal Cord Injury: Mechanisms and Clinical Applications

Based on animal studies, transplanted mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) might induce tissue protection/ repair. In clinical trials, patients with SCI both acute and chronic injected by mononuclear cell preparations (MCPs) combined with granulocytemacriphage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) show neurological and functional improvement, also improvement in quality of life

Ronsyn MW, et al. Can cell therapy heal a spinal cord injury? 2008

Intrathecal administration of Breast Milk Stem Cell- Conditioned Medium (BMSC-CM) provides therapeutic effects in rats with SCI. BMSC-CM are shown to improves motoric and sensoric functions, also reduces production of proinflamatory cytokines. Therefore, BMSC-SM reduces apoptosis after SCI.

Although current therapeutic approaches for spinal cord injury are mainly focused on prevention and treatment of secondary complications, animal research has provided multiple successful strategies to follow to cure and not just to care for spinal cord injury. However, application of these promising therapeutic approaches will need much more research, both on the basic level to clear out the exact pathophysiological mechanism of secondary damage and endogenous regeneration, as well as on a more applied level of animal experimentation and translation into human clinical trials.
