"scleroderma is an autoimmune disease characterized by organ fibrosis, resistant to standard treatment. It is suspected the addition of Physalis angulata Linn. (Ciplukan) extract as adjuvant therapy can improve the scleroderma skin fibrosis. The aim at this study is to evaluate the effect of ciplukan extract as adjuvant on scleroderma skin fibrosis in standard therapy, based on modified Rodnan skin scale (MRSS), inflammatory biomarkers, immunology and serum fibrosis. Methods: double-blind, randomized clinical trial was performed in scleroderma patients with stable disease at Cipto Mangunkusumo hospital and Hasan Sadikin hospital during November 2015−March 2017 who met the selection criteria and continued to receive standard therapy. The subjects were randomly allocated into two groups: the study group received the ciplukan extract 3 x 250 mg / day for 12 weeks and the placebo group. Examination of MRSS, ESR, P1NP, BAFF and sCD40L was performed every 4 weeks until the end of the study. Results: fifty-nine subjects completed the study. They consisted of 29 subjects of the treatment group and 30 of the placebo group, with an average age of 41 (SD 9) years, the proportion of women: male = 9 : 1. There was a significant improvement of skin fibrosis in the study group with a highly significant decrease in MRSS (35.9% VS 6.3%, p <0.001) and a relative decrease in P1NP levels (17.8% VS 0.7%, p = 0.002). No decrease in ESR, BAFF and sCD40L levels in both groups. There was a weak but significant positive correlation between MRSS with P1NP levels (r = 0.236, p = 0.036). Conclusion: Ciplukan extract with dose 3 x 250 mg for 12 weeks as adjuvant on scleroderma standard therapy alleviates skin fibrosis significantly based on MRSS and P1NP levels.

"Latar belakang : Skleroderma adalah salah satu penyakit autoimun multifaktorial yang cukup jarang terjadi. Pasien yang mengalami skleroderma memiliki angka kesintasan yang kurang baik, dan data mengenai angka kesintasan serta faktor-faktor yg memengaruhinya pada berbagai penelitian menunjukkan hasil yang bervariasi. Selain itu juga masih belum ada data yang jelas mengenai angka kesintasan di Indonesia.Tujuan : Mengetahui kesintasan tiga tahun pasien skleroderma di Rumah Sakit Rujukan Tersier daerah Jakarta dan faktor-faktor yang memengaruhinya.Metode : Penelitian menggunakan desain kohort retrospektif di RS Cipto Mangunkusumo Jakarta, bulan Januari-September 2024. Kriteria inklusi penelitian ini adalah pasien diagnosis Skleroderma sesuai kriteria ACR EULAR 2013, umur diatas 18 tahun, dan berobat di RSCM dari tahun 2013 – 2021. Kriteria eksklusi penelitian ini adalah data pasien tidak lengkap dan rekam medis rusak. Faktor risiko yang diteliti pada penelitian ini antara lain jenis kelamin, usia saat didiagnosis, tipe penyakit skleroderma, adanya hipertensi pulmoner, adanya penyakit paru interstisial, adanya keterlibatan saluran cerna, adanya vaskulopati digiti, adanya anemia, serta adanya peningkatan kadar penanda inflamasi. Data diambil dari rekam medis, kemudian dilakukan pencatatan demografi serta faktor risiko yang sudah ditentukan. Data kemudian dilakukan analisis dengan metode Cox Regression. Nilai kesalahan yang dapat ditoleransi sebesar 5% (IK 95%) dengan nilai kemaknaan statistik apabila p-value < 0,05.Hasil : Sebanyak 153 pasien skleroderma masuk dalam penelitian ini. Kesintasan tiga tahun pasien sebesar 86,3% dengan mean survival sekitar 32 (31,6 – 34,2) bulan. Dari analisis multivariat diperoleh faktor risiko yang berhubungan dengan kesintasan tiga tahun adalah usia saat didiagnosis (p 0,010) dan adanya penyakit paru interstisial (p 0,031). Usia lebih dari 60 tahun meningkatkan risiko terjadinya kematian pasien skleroderma hampir 2 kali lipat dibandingkan pasien usia yang lebih muda [aHR 2,897 (1,518 - 5,530)]. Adanya penyakit paru interstisial menurunkan risiko kematian dalam tiga tahun sebanyak sekitar 40% dibandingkan dengan pasien tanpa penyakit paru interstisial [aHR 0,607 (0,386 - 0,954)]Kesimpulan : Kesintasan tiga tahun pasien skleroderma di RSCM masih baik, dengan usia saat didiagnosis dan kejadian penyakit paru interstisial merupakan faktor risiko independen terhadap kesintasan tiga tahun pasien skleroderma.

Background : Scleroderma is a multifactorial autoimmune disease that is quite rare. Patients with scleroderma have poor survival rates, and data on survival rates and factors that influence them in various studies show varying results. In addition, there is still no clear data on survival rates in Indonesia.

Objective : To determine the three-year survival of scleroderma patients at the Tertiary Referral Hospital in Jakarta and the factors that influence it.

Method : The study used a retrospective cohort design at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta, from January to September 2024. The inclusion criteria for this study were patients diagnosed with Scleroderma according to the ACR EULAR 2013 criteria, aged over 18 years, and treated at RSCM from 2013 to 2021. The exclusion criteria for this study were incomplete patient data and damaged medical records. The risk factors studied in this study included gender, age at diagnosis, type of scleroderma, pulmonary hypertension, interstitial lung disease, gastrointestinal involvement, digital vasculopathy, anemia, and increased levels of inflammatory markers. Data were taken from medical records, then demographics and predetermined risk factors were recorded. The data were then analyzed using the Cox Regression method. The tolerable error value was 5% (95% CI) with a statistical significance value if the p-value <0.05.

Result : A total of 153 scleroderma patients were included in this study. The three-year survival rate of patients was 86.3% with a mean survival of around 32 (31,6 – 34,2) months. From the multivariate analysis, the risk factors associated with three-year survival were age at diagnosed (p 0.010) and ILD (p 0.031). Age over 60 years increased the risk of death in scleroderma patients almost 2 times compared to younger patients [aHR 2.897 (1.518 - 5.530)]. The presence of ILD reduced the risk of death within three years by around 40% compared to patients without ILD [aHR 0.607 (0.386 - 0.954)]

Conclusion : The three-year survival of scleroderma patients at RSCM is good, with age at diagnosed and ILD occurrence being independent risk factors for the three-year survival of scleroderma patients.."

"klerosis sistemik atau skleroderma adalah suatu penyakit jaringan ikat yang dimediasi imun yang ditandai dengan fibrosis kulit dan organ dalam serta vaskulopati. Penyebab kematian utama pada sklerosis sistemik adalah penyakit paru interstisial. Pengobatan penyakit paru interstisial pada sklerosis sistemik saat ini belum memuaskan. Herba ciplukan (Physalis angulata) merupakan salah satu terapi alternatif yang potensial dan terbukti dapat memperbaiki fibrosis kulit pada pasien sklerosis sistemik namun data pada manifestasi paru belum ada. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menilai efek herba ciplukan dalam mencegah dan memperbaiki inflamasi dan fibrosis paru pada model tikus sklerosis sistemik dan mencari dosis optimal ciplukan untuk memperbaiki fibrosis. Penelitian ini terbagai dalam 2 tahap yaitu tahap kuratif fibrosis (tahap 1) dan tahap preventif inflamasi dan fibrosis (tahap 2). Pada tahap 1, 33 tikus (Rattus norvegicus) galur Sprague-Dawley 10−12 minggu dibagi dalam 6 kelompok yaitu kelompok yang mendapat bleomisin dan ciplukan (dosis 50,100,150, dan 200 mg/kg), bleomisin dan salin, dan kontrol negatif. Bleomisin diberikan subkutan per hari selama 14 hari dan ciplukan atau salin diberikan mulai hari ke-21 selama 30 hari lalu hewan diterminasi. Fibrosis dinilai dengan derajat fibrosis dan luas fibrosis pada histopatologi, kadar hidroksiprolin, TGF-β dan MMP13 jaringan paru. Pada tahap 2, 36 ekor tikus dibagi dalam 6 kelompok yaitu 2 kelompok yang mendapat bleomisin dan ciplukan (50 dan 100 mg/kgBB) dan 2 kelompok bleomisin dan salin. Tiga kelompok diterminasi di H14 dan 3 kelompok di H51. Pada tahap 2, bleomisin dan ciplukan diberikan bersamaan selama 14 hari pertama. Luaran yang dinilai di H14 adalah kadar IL-6 paru, jumlah leukosit dari BAL dan skor inflamasi paru secara histopatologi. Luaran yang dinilai di H52 adalah derajat fibrosis dan luas fibrosis, kadar hidroksiprolin, TGF-β dan MMP13 paru. Kadar IL-6, TGF-β dan MMP 13 dinilai dengan ELISA dari jaringan paru, Hidroksiprolin dinilai dari jaringan paru dengan metode kolorimetri. Pada tahap 1 terdapat perbedaan luas fibrosis yang secara statistik bermakna antara kelompok yang mendapat ciplukan dosis 100, 150, dan 200 mg/kgBB dibandingkan kelompok bleomisin. Tidak terdapat perbedaan skor fibrosis antara kelompok yang mendapat ciplukan 50, 100, dan 150 mg/kgBB dengan kontrol negatif. Tidak terdapat perbedaan hidroksiprolin antara kelompok yang mendapat ciplukan dengan kontrol negatif. Tidak terdapat perbedaan kadar TGF-β dan MMP13 yang secara statistik bermakna antar kelompok. Pada tahap 2 penelitian tidak didapatkan perbedaan kadar IL-6, jumlah leukosit cairan BAL dan skor inflamasi yang bermakna antar kelompok dan tidak terdapat perbedaan skor fibrosis, luas fibrosis, kadar hidroksiprolin, TGF-β dan MMP13 antar kelompok. Sebagai simpulan ekstrak ciplukan memiliki efek kuratif untuk menurunkan luas fibrosis paru dengan dosis optimal 100 mg/kgBB. Ciplukan tidak memiliki efek preventif terhadap inflamasi dan fibrosis.

Systemic sclerosis or scleroderma is an immune mediated connective tissue disease which is manifested by fibrosis on skin and internal organ and vasculopathy. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is the main cause of death of systemic sclerosis however the treatment of ILD in systemic sclerosis is still unsatisfactory. Ciplukan (Physalis angulata) herb is a potential alternative treatment for systemic sclerosis and has been proven to improve skin sclerosis in systemic sclerosis patients however the study on its effect on lung has been lacking. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of ciplukan herb for treating and preventing inflammation and fibrosis in systemic sclerosis animal model and to find out its optimal dose in improving lung fibrosis. This study was done in 2 stages. For the first stage (treatment of fibrosis), 33 Sprague-Dawley rats aged 10−12 weeks were divided into 6 groups (4 groups were given bleomycin and ciplukan extract dose 50,100,150, and 200 mg/kgBW, respectively, bleomycin and saline and negative control). Bleomycin was given subcutaneously daily for 14 days and ciplukan or saline were given from day 21 until the next 30 days and then the animals were sacrificed. At the end of observation, degree of fibrosis and width of fibrosis from lung histopathology, hydroxyproline, TGF-β, and MMP13 levels were analyzed. For the second stage (prevention), 36 rats were divided into 6 groups (bleomycin and ciplukan dose 50 and 100 mg/kgBW, and bleomycin only). Three groups were sacrificed after 14 days of observation for evaluation of IL-6 level in lung tissue, leucocyte count on BAL fluid and inflammation score. Three groups were sacrificed after 51 days observation and were analyzed for degree of fibrosis and width of fibrosis from lung histopathology, hydroxyproline, TGF-β, and MMP13 levels. For the second stage, bleomycin and ciplukan were given simultaneously for 14 days. IL-6, TGF-β, and MMP13 levels were measured using ELISA methods while hydroxyproline was analyzed using colorimetric method. From the stage 1, there was a significant reduction in width of lung fibrosis on groups receiving bleomycin and ciplukan dose 100, 150, and 200 mg/kgBW compared with bleomycin group. There was no difference of fibrosis score among groups who received ciplukan 50,100, and 150 mg/kgBW compared to the negative control. There was no difference of hydroxyproline among groups who received ciplukan compared with negative control. There was no difference of TGF-β, and MMP13 levels among groups. From the stage 2, there were no difference of IL-6 levels, BAL leukocyte count and inflammation score among groups after 14 days and no difference of fibrosis score, extension of fibrosis, hydroxyproline, TGF-β and MMP13 levels among groups after 51 days observation. As a conclusion, ciplukan herb has a role as a treatment of fibrosis to reduce extent of lung fibrosis with optimal dose of 100 kg/BW but shows no effect on prevention of lung inflammation and lung fibrosis."

"Latar belakang dan tujuan: Morbiditas dan mortalitas pascaCABG salah satunya dipengaruhi respon inflamasi oleh penggunaan mesin CPB. Di beberapa pusat, sering dilakukan pemberian kortikosteroid untuk menurunkan respon inflamasi. Terdapat berbagai uji klinis yang memberikan hasil yang masih kontroversial. Deksametason dipilih karena memiliki potensi efek glukokortikoid yang tinggi, tanpa efek mineralokortikoid, masa kerja yang panjang, relatif aman bagi pasien, serta mudah untuk didapat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apakah penggunaan deksametason lebih efektif untuk memperbaiki keluaran klinis dan mengendalikan penanda inflamasi jika dibandingkan plasebo pada pasien yang menjalani operasi CABG on pump. Metode: Randomisasi 60 sampel menjadi grup deksametason (n=30) dan grup plasebo (n=30). Variabel dengan sebaran normal dilakukan analisis statistik independent t-test, sedangkan data dengan sebaran tidak normal dilakukan analisis statistik nonparametrik yaitu Mann-Whitney test. Analisis univariat antara dua kelompok studi akan dilakukan menggunakan uji fisher exact test. Hasil: Uji statistik kejadian MACE dengan grup deksametason dibandingkan grup plasebo, didapatkan nilai RR 1,389 dengan CI 0,995-1,938 (p =0,045). Deksametason memiliki keunggulan yang dapat dilihat dari parameter durasi ventilasi mekanik (deksametason 7 (5-14) vs plasebo 10 (5-19), p <0,0001), lama rawat ICU (deksametason 16 (11-22) vs plasebo 18 (12-72), p =0,017), lama rawat rumah sakit (deksametason 5 (5-7) vs plasebo 6 (5-15), p = 0,005), penanda inflamasi IL-6 (deksametason 114 (32-310) vs plasebo 398 (72-1717), p <0,0001) dan PCT (deksametason 1,08 (0,31-3,8) vs plasebo 3,7 (1,06-11,4), p <0,0001). Simpulan: Pemberian deksametason efektif memperbaiki keluaran klinis, dan mengendalikan penanda inflamasi pascaoperasi dibandingkan plasebo.

Background and purpose: Mortality and morbidity post CABG are affected by inflammatory response which are caused by usage of CPB machine. In some centre, corticosteroid are often used to reduce inflammatory response. There are various clinical trials that provide controversial results. Dexamethasone was chosen because it has a high potential for glucocorticoid effects, without mineralocorticoid effects, long working period, relatively safe for patients, and easy to obtain. This study aims to determine whether the use of dexamethasone is more effective in improving clinical outcomes and controlling inflammatory markers when compared to placebo in patients undergoing on pump CABG.

Methods: 60 sample are randomized into dexamethasone group (n=30) and placebo group (n=30). Variables with normal distribution were carried out independent t-test statistical analysis, whereas data with abnormal distribution were analyzed using nonparametric statistics, namely Mann-Whitney test. Univariate analysis between the two study groups will be conducted using the fisher exact test.

Result: The incidence of MACE with the dexamethasone group compared to the placebo group was obtained RR 1,389 with CI 0,995-1,938 (p =0,045). Dexamethasone has advantages that can be seen from the parameters of duration of mechanical ventilation (dexamethasone 7 (5-14) vs placebo 10 (5-19), p <0,0001). ICU stay (dexamethasone 16 (11-22) vs placebo 18 (12-72), p =0,017), hospital stay (dexamethasone 5 (5-7) vs placebo 6 (5-15), p = 0,005), IL-6 (dexamethasone 114 (32-310) vs placebo 398 (72-1717), p <0,0001) and PCT (dexamethasone 1,08 (0,31-3,8) vs placebo 3,7 (1,06-11,4), p <0,0001).

Conclusion: The administration of dexamethasone improves clinical output, and managed to controls post operative inflammatory marker more effectively compared to placebo."
