    Morbus Hansen (MH) masih merupakan masalah kesehatan serius. Gambaran klinis MH yang luas menyebabkan diagnosis MH sulit dibangun. Penegakan diagnosis MH secara akurat penting dalam memutuskan rantai transmisi dan keterlambatan pengobatan. Leprosy rapid test (LRT) merupakan sarana diagnostik yang cepat dan sederhana untuk mendiagnosis MH secara akurat. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk menentukan nilai diagnostik LRT dalam mendiagnosis MH dibandingkan dengan slit skin smear (SSS) pada pasien presumtif MH di RSUP Dr. Mohammad Hoesin (RSUPMH) Palembang. Uji diagnostik dengan rancangan potong lintang dilakukan dari November 2014 hingga Februari 2015. Total 110 pasien presumtif MH yang berobat ke poliklinik Divisi Dermatologi Infeksi RSUPMH Palembang dan memenuhi kriteria inklusi diikutsertakan dengan metoda consecutive. Seluruh partisipan dilakukan pemeriksaan LRT, SSS dan histopatologi. Sensitivitas, spesifisitas, akurasi dan area under curve of LRT secara signifikan lebih tinggi daripada SSS (98,1% vs 85,71%; 80% vs 60%; 97% vs 85% dan 0,890 vs 0,72; secara berurutan). Leprosy rapid test memberikan nilai diagnostik lebih tinggi secara signifikan dibandingkan SSS di RSUPMH Palembang. Leprosy rapid test dapat digunakan sebagai pengganti SSS sebagai pemeriksaan penunjang MH

    The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the asymptotic behavior of the discounted risk-sensitive control problem for periodic diffusion processes when the discount factor α goes to zero. If uα(θ, x) denotes the optimal cost function, being the risk factor, then it is shown that limα→0αuα(θ, x) = ξ(θ) where ξ(θ) is the average on ]0, θ[ of the optimal cost of the (usual) in nite horizon risk-sensitive control problem

    In this article, the authors propose to apply an innovative methodology (quantitative and qualitative) to evaluate musical performances and telephone sales business techniques, creating commercial artificial speech or voice recognition, tools whose advertising and marketing use can be triggered by chatbots and artificial intelligence, within the Broadband Society and industry 4.0. We use a quantitative methodology, with a statistical sample (non probabilistic convenience sample), to find qualitative results in age and sex targeted people. We propose to apply an innovative methodology to evaluate musical performances, commercials, telephone sales techniques, creating commercial artificial speech or voice recognition. We perform a qualitative final results study based on a questionnaire survey by research staff to causal, through which investigated the impact can be seen through the phone. It tries to explain statistically according to this study see what impact emotionally than others across five variables by calling the questioning. We observe if new technologies and contemporary working practices bringing theatre and performance closer to music in terms of shrinking the separation between the act of performance and the document of performance. We conclude in all the groups after the voice has gone through a mechanical means (telephone), the voice with higher emotional impact is child voice, low male voice, female voice loud, high volumes and serious tones.En este artículo, los autores proponen aplicar una metodología innovadora (cuantitativa y cualitativa) para evaluar los desempeños musicales y las técnicas comerciales de ventas telefónicas, a partir de la voz artificial comercial o reconocimiento de voz, herramientas cuyo uso publicitario y de marketing se puede disparar mediante los chatbots y la inteligencia artificial, dentro de la Sociedad de la Banda Ancha y la industria 4.0. Utilizamos una metodología cuantitativa, mediante una muestra estadística (muestra de conveniencia no probabilística), para encontrar resultados cualitativos en personas de edad y sexo específicos. Proponemos aplicar una metodología innovadora para evaluar interpretaciones o ejecuciones musicales, comerciales, técnicas de venta telefónica, creación de voz artificial comercial o reconocimiento de voz. Realizamos un estudio cualitativo basado en una encuesta realizada previamente, a través de la cual investigamos el impacto que se puede observar a través de llamadas telefónicas. Se intenta explicar estadísticamente el posible impacto emocional en el usuario final a través de cinco variables creadas como indicadores. Observamos si las nuevas tecnologías y medios digitales y los nuevos yacimientos de ocupación contemporáneos surgidos de ello proporcionan a la música rendimiento en términos de reducción de la separación entre la conversación y el anuncio y la obtención de un retorno de la inversión, sea tangible o intangible. Se concluye que en todos los grupos analizados de la muestra, tras recibir el impacto comunicativo de voz a través de un medio mecánico (el teléfono, en este caso), la voz con mayor impacto emocional es la voz infantil, la voz masculina grave, la voz femenina aguda, los volúmenes altos y los tonos graves

    BACKGROUND: Leprosy is a chronic granulomatous infection caused by Mycobacterium leprae which affects skin, peripheral nerves, and other body parts including bone, ear, eye, and nose. Nasal manifestation of leprosy may be found in the early stage with non-specific symptoms such as nasal congestion. In advanced stage, destruction of bone structures and cartilages may result in deformities. However, nasal manifestation as the only symptom in early stage can lead to delayed diagnosis. CASE REPORT: We reported a case of multibacillary leprosy in a 26-year-old male with tumor like nasal deformity for 1 year and lump in the ear lobes since 8 years ago. Initially, there was nasal discharge, unfrequent epistaxis, followed by loss of smelling perception, without associated pain, or numbness since childhood. Lesions on the trunk, palms, and soles were also noted since 2 years ago. The physical examination revealed tumor with crusts and fissures on the nasal tip; accompanied by saddle nose. Slit skin smear revealed acid-fast bacilli with bacteriological index of 4+ in solid form. Hence, he was diagnosed as multibacillary leprosy with Grade 2 disability. The prognosis was poor due to permanent deformities. CONCLUSION: Early diagnosis and initiation of treatment are crucial in the management of this debilitating and stigmatized disease

    Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan tujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana regulasi tentang kode etik kedokteran di Indonesia dan bagaimana tugas MKEK (Majelis Kehormatan Etika Kedokteran) dan MKDKI (Majelis Kehormatan Disiplin Kedokteran Indonesia) dalam mengatasi masalah pelanggaran disiplin dokter. Dengan menggunakan metode penelitian yuridis normatif, maka dapat disimpulkan, bahwa: 1. Maraknya kasus-kasus pelanggaran disiplin kedokteran yang di lakukan oleh dokter, di sebabkan karena kurangnya kedisiplinan berprofesi dan pemahaman mengenai Kode Etik Kedokteran menjadi faktor penyebab terjadinya pelanggaran disiplin yang dilakukan dokter dalam praktik kedokterannya. 2. Dalam penanganan kasus yang dilakukan oleh dokter, MKEK dan MKDKI sangat berperan dalam penegakan setiap kasus yang dilakukan dokter. Majelis Kehormatan Etika Kedokteran Indonesia Ikatan Dokter Indonesia (MKEK IDI) adalah lembaga yang mengeluarkan Kode Etik Kedokteran Indonesia(KODEKI) dan Pedoman Pelaksanaan Kode Etik Kedokteran Indonesia (KODEKI). MKEK (Majelis Kehormatan Etika Kedokteran) adalah lembaga penegak etika profesi kedokteran (kodeki), di samping MKDKI (Majelis Kehormatan Disiplin Kedokteran Indonesia) yakni lembaga yang berwenang untuk menentukan ada tidaknya kesalahan yang dilakukan dokter dan dokter gigi dalam penerapan disiplin ilmu kedokteran dan kedokteran gigi, dan menetapkan sanksi

The primary data obtained through anamnesis (autoanamnesis and aloanamnesis of the family which is the patient\u27s father), physical examinations and home visits, complete the family data, and the psychosocial environment. The assesment is based on early holistic diagnosis, the process and the end of quantitative and qualitative studies. Aspect of internal risk was obtained, the transmission source is patient\u27s friend who has the same disease and had been firstly diagnosed leprosy and had been together since childhood (a long and close contact). In patient is found two cardinal sign which is the anesthetic skin lesions and thickening of peripheral nerves. Patient is diagnosed with multibacillary Hansen Morbus type, because the anesthetic patches or lesions of leprosy patients amounted to more than 5. Interventions to patient to perform daily skin care, hand and foot protection and doing physiotherapy exercises as mentioned in the nonmedikamentosa management was done. Patient is expected to keep doing the interventions that have been given (maintenance and skin care, hand and foot protection as well as physiotherapy exercises) and routine control to the clinic.
