"Latar Belakang. Neurosifilis merupakan infeksi susunan saraf akibat invasi bakteri Treponema Pallidum yang dapat menyebabkan kecacatan. Selain itu gejala klinis neurosifilis beragam, tidak khas, bahkan asimtomatik sehingga dapat menyebabkan kesalahan diagnosis yang cukup tinggi. Angka kejadian sifilis di Indonesia masih tinggi bahkan masih terus meningkat. Akan tetapi hingga saat ini belum diketahui prevalensi dan deskripsi neurosifilis di Indonesia. Studi ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan prevalensi neurosifilis dan perbandingan karakteristik klinis dan penunjang antara neurosifilis dan non-neurosifilis di RSUPN dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo.Metode. Studi potong lintang dengan data rekam medis di RSUPN dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo pada pasien dengan kecurigaan neurosifilis yang dikonsulkan ke neurologi sejak Januari 2019-Januari 2024. Dilakukan evaluasi karakteristik klinis dan penunjang baik profil darah berupa serum maupun cairan serebrospinal (CSS) serta pencitraan otak.Hasil. Dari 100 subjek dengan kecurigaan neurosifilis yang dikonsulkan ke neurologi, terdapat 72 kasus neurosifilis dan 28 kasus non neurosifilis. Pada kelompok neurosifilis keluhan tersering saat dikonsulkan ke neurologi adalah gangguan penglihatan (OR 7,46 [2,83-19,64], p<0,001) dan nyeri kepala (OR 4,43 [1,22-16.14], p= 0,031). Titer RPR serum (median 1:128) dan TPHA serum kelompok neurosifilis (median 1:10240) lebih tinggi dibandingkan non neurosifilis. Kelompok neurosifilis cenderung memiliki jumlah leukosit CSS lebih tinggi (median 7 [1,00-155,0], p<0,001) dan jumlah protein lebih tinggi (median 47 [5,00-612,00], p<0,001) dibandingkan non-neurosifilis. Pada 10 subjek neurosifilis dengan gambaran pencitraan otak abnormal terdapat 3 subjek dengan gambaran space occupying lesion.Kesimpulan. Prevalensi neurosifilis pada pasien sifilis yang dikonsulkan ke neurologi di RSUPN dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo sangat tinggi (72%). Kecurigaan neurosifilis lebih tinggi pada pasien sifilis dengan keluhan gangguan penglihatan atau nyeri kepala dan memiliki kadar limfosit darah yang rendah, dengan titer RPR serum ≥1:128 dan titer TPHA serum ≥1:10.240.

Background. Neurosyphilis is an infection of the nervous system caused by the invasion of the bacterium Treponema pallidum, which can lead to disability. Additionally, the clinical symptoms of neurosyphilis are varied, non-specific, and can even be asymptomatic, leading to a high rate of misdiagnosis. The incidence of syphilis in Indonesia remains high and continues to increase. However, to date, the prevalence and description of neurosyphilis in Indonesia are still unknown. This study aims to determine the prevalence of neurosyphilis and to compare the clinical and supporting characteristics between neurosyphilis and non-neurosyphilis patients at the National Central General Hospital Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo.

Methods. A cross-sectional study utilizing medical records at RSUPN Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo will be conducted on patients suspected of having neurosyphilis who were referred to neurology from January 2019 to January 2024. The study will evaluate clinical characteristics and supportive data, including blood profiles (serum), cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis, and brain imaging.

Result. From 100 subjects with suspected neurosyphilis referred to neurology, there were 72 cases of neurosyphilis and 28 cases of non-neurosyphilis. In the neurosyphilis group, the most common complaints at the time of consultation were visual disturbances (OR 7.46 [2.83-19.64], p<0.001) and headaches (OR 4.43 [1.22-16.14], p=0.031). Serum RPR titers (median 1:128) and TPHA titers (median 1:10240) were higher in the neurosyphilis group compared to the non-neurosyphilis group. The neurosyphilis group tended to have higher CSF leukocyte counts (median 7 [1.00-155.0], p<0.001) and higher protein levels (median 47 [5.00-612.00], p<0.001) compared to the non-neurosyphilis group. Among 10 neurosyphilis subjects with abnormal brain imaging, 3 subjects had findings suggestive of a space-occupying lesion

Conclusion. The prevalence of neurosyphilis among syphilis patients referred to neurology at RSUPN dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo is very high (72%). Suspicion of neurosyphilis is higher in syphilis patients presenting with visual disturbances or headaches and having low blood lymphocyte levels, with serum RPR titers ≥1:128 and serum TPHA titers ≥1:10,240. Additionally, this study also identified 10 subjects with abnormalities in brain imaging. Therefore, in syphilis patients, especially those with neurological symptoms and signs, consideration should be given to performing brain MRI imaging."

"ABSTRAKSifilis merupakan penyakit multistadium kronik yang disebabkan oleh bakteriTreponema pallidum dan ditularkan dari lesi aktif pasangan seksual atau dari ibuhamil yang terinfeksi pada janin yang dikandungnya. Saat ini telah terjadipeningkatan kasus T. pallidum resisten azitromisin akibat mutasi titik A2058Gdan A2059G pada gen 23S rRNA. Di Indonesia belum ada data terkait resistensiT. pallidum terhadap azitromisin sehingga penelitian ini bertujuan untukmendapatkan metode nested multipleks PCR untuk deteksi kedua mutasi yangmenyebabkan resistensi. Tiga pasang primer digunakan pada reaksi nested PCR.Untuk mendapatkan kondisi uji yang optimal dilakukan optimasi parameter yangpenting pada proses PCR. Uji nested multipleks PCR dapat mendeteksi 22.000jumlah copy DNA/ml dan tidak bereaksi silang terhadap mikroorganisme yangpotensial menyebabkan hasil positif palsu. Uji awal 45 sampel klinis darahditemukan 13 sampel positif T. pallidum dan tidak ditemukan mutasi baikA2058G maupun A2059G. Dua sampel positif dikonfirmasi dengan DNAsekuensing dan menunjukkan tidak ada mutasi titik. Uji nested multipleks PCRyang telah dikembangkan pada penelitian ini dapat digunakan untuk deteksimutasi gen 23S rRNA T. pallidum yang menyebabkan resistensi azitromisin pada sampel klinis darah.

ABSTRACTSyphilis is a chronic, multi-stage infectious disease caused by Treponemapallidum that is usually transmitted sexually by contact with an active lesion of a partner or congenitally from an infected pregnant woman to her fetus.Azithromycin-resistant strains of T. pallidum is associated with a single pointmutation (either A2058G or A2059G) in both copies of the 23S rRNA gene of T.pallidum. These strains are now prevalent in many countries but there is no dataavailable about it in Indonesia. Therefore, in this study we developed a nestedmultiplex PCR to detect A2058G and A2059G 23S rRNA gene point mutations ofT. pallidum. Three primer sets were designed for nested PCR reactions. To obtainoptimal PCR reaction, all parameters were optimized. The assay could detect atleast 22000 DNA copy number/ml and showed no cross reaction with othermicroorganisms that potentially cause false positive result. A total 13 of 45 wholeblood specimens were PCR positive for T. pallidum and no single point mutation(either A2058G or A2059G) were detected by PCR. Two positive specimens wereconfirmed by DNA sequencing and showed no mutation. Thus, nested multiplexPCR developed in this study is potential to detect azithromycin-resistant T.pallidum in whole blood samples."

ABSTRACTSyphilis is caused by Treponema pallidum, which is a chronic and systemic diseases . During the course of the disease, can affect all organs of the body. There is a latency period without manifestations of lesions in the body. Transmission can be through sexual contact, through blood transfusion, and from mother to child ( congenital syphilis ). This time the diagnosis is made by serological test for the detection of anti- treponema IgM antibodies produced in two weeks after infection followed by the formation of IgG antibodies two weeks or four weeks after infection. Examination of serological screening of blood donors to Treponema pallidum in Blood Transfusion Services, using specific serological screening test for Treponema with ELISA method can detect IgG and IgM antibodies specific to Treponema. ELISA test results can lead to rejection of donor blood that contains antibodies. When in fact it is not infectious anymore, because it does not contain bacteria. In case of primary syphilis serology false negative results may occur because of the window period. On the other hand the false positive serological results may occur because the antibodies from past infections. PCR has great potential value for the diagnosis of primary syphilis. The advantage of real -time PCR is the ability to detect pathogens directly. Real-time PCR to detect gene PolATreponema pallidum, which is a specific gene of Treponema pallidum, and no cross-reactions with non Treponema.Methodology. In this research, the examination of 350 samples of blood donors with serologic test results for antibodies to Treponema pallidum reactive and non- reactive using ELISA method, will be investigated using real -time PCR method.Results. Detection of Treponema pallidum DNA using real-time PCR method obtained results, 41/350 or 11.71% of samples were positive for DNATreponema pallidum DNA and 309/350 or 88.29% of samples did not contain Treponema pallidum DNA. In blood samples containing antibodies against Treponema pallidum is non reactive, there were detected positive for Treponema pallidum DNA samples of 21. This means that there is still a risk of transmission of syphilis to the recipient amounting to 5.71%Conclusion . Detection DNA Treponema pallidum in blood donors by real -time PCR assay is 11.71 % and still a risk of transmission os syphilis to the recipient about 5,71%."

"Infeksi sistem saraf pusat SSP merupakan masalah yang sangat serius dalam bidang neurologi di seluruh dunia. Infeksi SSP biasanya diduga atas dasar presentasi klinis pasien, namun diagnosis berdasarkan gejala dan tanda klinis memiliki kelemahan, sehingga deteksi dan penatalaksanaan yang tidak tepat menyebabkan infeksi SSP berkembang cepat dengan morbiditas dan mortalitas yang tinggi. Pada penelitian ini, dari bahan cairan serebrospinal CSS akan dilakukan deteksi dan identifikasi bakteri dan virus guna mengetahui penyebab infeksi SSP. Penelitian ini menggunakan sisa sampel CSS dari pasien yang diperiksakan di laboratorium Departemen Patologi Klinik RSUPN CM dengan diagnosis berhubungan dengan infeksi/inflamasi. Spesimen CSS diperiksakan pewarnaan Gram langsung, biakan pada media agar, dan pendekatan molekular menggunakan primer gen 16S rRNA, lytA dan sebelas panel spesifik virus. Koloni yang tumbuh pada agar darah dilanjutkan dengan pemeriksaan pewarnaan Gram dan uji biokimia, serta MALDI-TOF-MS. Untuk bakteri, hasil kemudian dibandingkan, sedangkan untuk virus dilakukan analisis genomik.Dari 147 spesimen CSS, proporsi bakteri Streptococcus pneumoniae sebagai penyebab infeksi SSP dengan metode Gram langsung, biakan, dan qPCR adalah 0,7 dan dengan metode qPCR terget gen lytA saja adalah 2 , sedangkan proporsi virus dengan metode PCR adalah 4,1 . Berdasarkan identifikasi morfologi dan biokimia dari biakan yang tumbuh, berhasil didapatkan 1 isolat Streptococcus pneumoniae, 5 isolat Staphylococcus epidermidis, 1 isolat Staphylococcus saprophyticus, dan 1 isolat Streptococcus dysgalactiae. Berdasarkan hasil uji biokimia dan MALDI-TOF-MS, terdapat 1 isolat memiliki kesamaan jenis bakteri sampai tingkat spesies dan 8 isolat memiliki kesamaan pada tingkat genus. Streptococcus pneumoniae yang ditemukan adalah serotipe 6B, dan bersifat resistan terhadap oxacillin dan trimetoprim-sulfametoxazole. Untuk virus, terdeteksi 1 spesimen positif virus Influenza A dan 5 Herpes virus dari pemeriksaan terhadap 147 spesimen CSS. Analisis sekuens yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa virus Influenza tersebut adalah virus Influenza A subtipe H1N1, dan 5 Herpes virus adalah Human betaherpesvirus 5 strain HANSCTR2.Peran diagnostik 16S rRNA dalam deteksi infeksi bakteri pada CSS tidak dapat dinilai, namun penggunaan gen lytA untuk mendeteksi infeksi Streptococcus pneumoniae adalah lebih sensitif dibandingkan dengan biakan. Identifikasi bakteri menggunakan metode biakan-uji biokimia dan biakan-MALDI-TOF-MS memiliki tingkat kesesuaian yang baik sampai pada tingkat genus. Penggunaan primer spesifik virus mampu mendeteksi virus dari bahan CSS. Gambaran analisis CSS pada infeksi bakteri memiliki kesamaan dengan non-infeksi.

Central nervous system CNS infection is a very serious problem worldwide. The disesase is usually suspected based on patient 39;s clinical presentation, however this diagnosis has weaknesses, whereas an inaccuracy detection and management can cause high morbidity and mortality risk. This study aimed to detect and identify bacteria and virus from cerebrospinal fluid CSF, in order to determine the causes of CNS infection. This study investigated the remained CSF samples from patients examined at the laboratory of Clinical Pathology Department, Cipto Mangunkusumo hospital. The diagnosis or clinical information was related to infection or inflammation. The CSF specimens were examined by direct Gram staining, inoculated on blood agar media, and extracted for amplification using 16S rRNA, lytA and eleven viral specific primers. Colonies that grew on blood agar were stained and tested by biochemical tests, as well as MALDI-TOF-MS. For bacteria, all results were compared, and for the virus, the genomic sequence was analyzed. From 147 cerebrospinal fluid specimens, the proportion of Streptococcus pneumoniae as the etiology of CNS infection by using 3 methods direct Gram, culture, and qPCR lytA gene target was 0,7, while using qPCR lytA the proportion was 2. The proportion of virus by using PCR method was 4.1. Bacterial species isolated during culture on blood agar were Streptococcus pneumoniae 1 isolate, Staphylococcus epidermidis 5 isolates, Staphylococcus saprophyticus 1 isolate , and Streptococcus dysgalactiae 1 isolate. Based on biochemical and MALDI-TOF-MS test results, 1 isolate had the same type of bacteria to the species level and 8 isolates had similarity at the genus level. The serotypes of Streptococcus pneumoniae isolated from CSF were serotype 6B, and non-susceptible to oxacillin and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. For the virus, 1 positive specimen of Influenza virus and 5 Herpes virus were detected. The sequence analysis of Influenza virus showed that the virus was Influenza A virus, subtype H1N1, and for 5 Herpes virus were Human betaherpesvirus 5 strain HANSCTR2. The use of 16S rRNA in the detection of bacterial infections in CSF could not be assessed, but the use of lytA gene in detecting Streptococcus pneumoniae showed higher senstivity compare to culture. Bacterial identification using biochemical methods and MALDI-TOF-MS had a reliable identification up to the genus level. The use of virus-specific primers was capable of detecting viruses from CSF materials. The CSF analysis on bacterial infections had similarities with non-infections."

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Detection of AFB from CSF with Ziehl Neelsen staining in 2014 at dr Cipto Mangunkusumo general hospital never gives positive result. Staining with Auramine-O smear staining can increase its sensitivity. Acid fast bacilli cytocentrifugation is needed as a modification in AFB slide preparation to gain more bacilli faster.

Methods: Diagnostic perfomance of AFB slide prepared by non cytocentrifugation, Cytospin, Cytopro with Ziehl Neelsen stain, prepared by cytopro with Auramine-O stain are compared to TB MGIT as a gold standard.

Results: Acid fast bacilli slide prepared with non cytocentrifugation method and stained by Ziehl Neelsen cannot be obtained because AFB was not detected in all samples. Acid fast bacilli slide prepared with Cytospin and Cytopro and stained with Ziehl Neelsen has sensitivity (64%), specificity (85%), PPV (54%), 89% NPV. Acid fast bacilli slide prepared with Cytopro and stained with Auramine-O has sensitivity (91%), specificity (26%), PPV (26%), 91 % NPV.

Conclusion: Detection of AFB from CSF with cytocentrifugation method can replace non cytocentrifugation method. Acid fast bacilli slide prepared cytocentrifugation and stained by Auramine-O can rule out Tuberculous meningitis."

"[Latar belakang. Frambusia banyak ditemukan di negara tropis dan 75% kasus baru terdeteksi pada anak kurang dari 15 tahun. Diagnosis klinis sulit karena dapat menyerupai lesi penyakit lain. Namun pada praktiknya, diagnosis lebih sering ditegakkan berdasarkan temuan klinis dan epidemiologis, karena pemeriksaan serologis dianggap tidak praktis. Tujuan. Mengetahui kesesuaian gambaran klinis frambusia menurut pedoman WHO dengan kepositivan TPHA pada anak usia 1-12 tahun. Metode. Uji deskriptif. Subyek penelitian dilakukan pemeriksaan klinis sesuai lesi frambusia menurut WHO, lalu dikategorikan sebagai terduga frambusia dan bukan frambusia. Seluruh subyek dikonfirmasi dengan pemeriksaan TPHA. Dihitung besar kesesuaian keseluruhan, kesesuaian positif, dan negatif antara dugaan klinis dan TPHA. Hasil. Total subyek penelitian adalah 493 anak. Sebanyak 32 subyek terduga klinis frambusia dan 22 subyek dengan hasil TPHA positif. Proporsi kesesuaian keseluruhan antara gambaran klinis WHO dan TPHA adalah 90,67%, dengan proporsi kesesuaian positif 18,18%, dan proporsi kesesuaian negatif 94,06%. Kesimpulan. Nilai kesesuaian keseluruhan yang tinggi disebabkan karena kepositivan TPHA sangat kecil dibandingkan total subyek. Kepositivan gambaran klinis frambusia menurut WHO hanya memiliki kesesuaian sebesar 18,18% dengan pemeriksaan TPHA, sehingga tidak cukup sebagai sarana penapisan penyakit. Tidak ditemukannya gambaran klinis menurut WHO memiliki kesesuaian sebesar 94,06% dengan TPHA yang negatif., Background. Yaws is most prevalent in tropical countries and 75% of new cases are in children younger than 15 years. Clinical diagnosis can be confused with other skin diseases. However, physician often diagnose the disease based on clinical and epidemiological finding, because serological examination is impractical. Aim. To identify the conformity of yaws’ clinical manifestation based on WHO classification and TPHA in children age 1-12 years. Method. Descriptive study. All subjects were examined based on WHO classification, and then categorized as suspected or nonsuspected cases. TPHA were done to all subjects. Data collected were calculated to identify the proportion of overall agreement, positive percent agreement and negative percent agreement between clinical diagnosis and TPHA. Result. 493 subjects included in this study. There were 32 subjects with suspected yaws and 22 with reactive TPHA. The proportion of overall agreement between suspected case and TPHA were 90,67%, with positive percent agreement of 18,18%, and negative percent agreement of 94,06%. Conclusion. The high value of overall agreement can be due to rare case compared to total subjects. The positiveness of yaws’ clinical manifestation based on WHO classification only had the conformity of 18,18% with TPHA result, which means that clinical diagnosis alone is nonreliable as screening tool. The negativeness of the clinical manifestation had the conformity of 94.06% with TPHA result.]"
