Introduction Neonatal Onset Multisystem Inflammatory Disorder (NOMID) is the most severe of the Cryopyrin-Associated Periodic Syndromes (CAPS) spectrum [1]. Given the persistent nature of CAPS, symptoms may be confused with autoimmune diseases. However, unlike autoimmune diseases, autoinflammatory disorders are not associated with high-titer autoantibodies or antigen-specific T cells. Here we d...

Hepatitis B adalah suatu penyakit hati yang disebabkan oleh virus hepatitis (HBV). Cara penularan HBV secara parenteral yaitu vertikal (transmisi) maternal (ibu)-neonatal (janin) atau horisontal (kontak antar individu sangat erat dan lama, seksual, iatrogenik, serta penggunaan jarum suntik bersama). Warga Binaan Pemasyarakatan (WBP) Lapas Narkotika merupakan salah satu orang memiliki faktor ris...

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) although a well known complication in neonatal sepsis is extremely rare in congenital syphilis and there are scanty reports of this entity in the literature. Intracranial bleeding following DIC in neonatal congenital syphilis is even rarer, and has been reported only once earlier. We are reporting the second case of neonatal DIC with intracranial hae...

Neonatal cholestasis is a prolonged elevation of the serum levels of conjugated bilirubin beyond the first 14 days of life. Commonest etiologies include extrahepatic conditions like biliary atresia, intrahepatic like congenital malformations, infections and inborn errors of metabolism. TORCH infections constitute 22% cases of neonatal hepatitis, of which Cytomegalovirus is the commonest agent. ...

A new syndrome is described of which the salient features are (1) congenital hypoplasia and stenoses of the pulmonary arteries, sometimes with associated cardiovascular malformations; (2) neonatal liver disease, commonly wit...

Dermatomyositis is a rare and idiopathic inflammatory myopathy with characteristic cutaneous manifestations. In recent years, some researchers have showed the cause of dermatomyositis might be due to an autoimmune response induced by viral infections. However, chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection associated with dermatomyositis is very rare. In this report, we present a patient with demato...

ABSTRACT The relationship between chronic hepatitis C virus infection (HCV) and oral lichen planus (OLP) is a current topic in the field of oral medicine. Many studies of this association have been made over time. The geographic variation of the hepatitis C prevalence proved to be an important factor influencing the statistical results of the studies analyzing the association of the oral plan l...

Background Cholestatic jaundice in infancy is always pathologic and mainly caused by biliary atresia (BA), and neonatal hepatitis (NH). The early discrimination of both conditions is critical for the outcome of BA. We aimed to assess different non-invasive diagnostic tools in differentiating BA from NH. Materials and Methods Forty infants (25 boys, 15 girls) with cholestatic jaundice and final...
