Background: Appendicitis is an inflammation that occurs in appendix vermiformis and is the most common cause of abdominal pain. Appendicitis is also an indication of emergency abdominal surgery in children. The incidence of child appendicitis is 1.66 per 1000. If the diagnosis is delayed, 97% of cases of acute appendicitis will lead to perforation with a mortality rate of 5.1 per 1000 cases. The most common etiology of appendicitis is lymphoid tissue hyperplasia which represents one of the immune responses to infection. One of the infection factors was the poor personal hygiene level. This research aimed to discover personal hygiene level description in pediatric non complicated appendicitis.Methods: This research used descriptive quantitative observational research conducted in Moewardi General Hospital Surakarta. The sampling method was total sampling in appendicitis patient with, 33 respondents. Assessment in patients was calculated using personal hygiene scale questionnaire consisting of 12 items. The independent variable in this research was personal hygiene level, and the dependent variable was the incidence of pediatric appendicitis. Data were analyzed statistically for descriptive analysis.Results: The result showed that 51.5% of patients with pediatric appendicitis had poor personal hygiene.  Conclusions: Pediatric appendicitis patient had poor personal hygiene level.

Atherosclerosis is nowadays generally accepted as an inflammatory disease but the mechanism of its origin and development have not yet been fully clarified. The present review focuses on the role of the local immune system as one of the key players in the pathogenesis of the complex process. Its part represented by vascular-associated lymphoid tissue (VALT) within the arterial wall participates directly in the vascular wall's homeostatis. Its inordinate activation during ontogenic development of an individual, this formerly defensive and physiologic mechanism transform into a pathological process resulting in an impairing inflammation. Hsp60, CRP and oxidized or otherwise modified LDL are serious candidates for triggering these pathological changes. The principal role is played by anti-Hsp60 antibodies and by shear stress originating on the surface of endothelium due to blood flow. The experimental and clinical data supporting this immunological hypothesis of atherosclerosis are discussed.

Lymphocyte Responses

Hyperinflammation induced by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV2) is a major cause of disease severity and mortality in infected patients. The immunopathogenesis of SARS-CoV2 infection is similar to the previous Middle East Respiratory Syndrome-related coronavirus (MERS-CoV) and SARS-CoV coronavirus with severe inflammatory responses. Therefore, severity of this viral infection is not only associated with the virus but also due to host immune responses. Hyperinflammatory responses due to cytokine storm are a centerpiece of SARS-CoV2 pathogenesis with overwhelming consequences for the host. Virus infected monocyte derived macrophages produce cytokines and this contributes to damage of lymphoid tissue and limits the lymphocyte responses. Blocking the deadly cytokine storm and T lymphocyte stimulation is a vital defense for treating SARS-CoV2. Here, we will describe the role of hyperinflamation and the involvement of cytokines in severe SARS-CoV2 infection.

Pendidikan seks bagi anak difabel mental intelektual atau yang lebih dikenal dengan istilah tunagrahita menjadi suatu permasalahan yang penting di tengah masyarakat. Hal tersebut berdasar sebab pendidikan seks merupakan salah satu upaya agar setiap anak berkebutuhan khusus dapat mengenali, memahami dan mengelola perkembangan dan perubahan secara biologis yang terjadi pada dirinya agar tidak terjebak pada perilaku seks yang menyimpang dan yang terpenting agar tidak mendapatkan kekerasan dan pelecehan seksual dari orang lain. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dan sampel dalam penelitian ini yaitu narasumber atau informan yang dipilih dengan menggunakan metode purposive sampling. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa peran orang tua dalam pemberian pendidikan seks sejak dini bagi anak difabel mental intelektual dimulai sejak anak berumur 5 tahun, dengan pengenalan organ intim, cara membersihkan diri atau kegiatan menjaga kebersihan diri berupa mandi, cara berpakaian, bagian tubuh apa saja yang boleh dan tidak boleh dilihat dan diraba oleh orang lain sebagai upaya pencegahan terhadap kekerasan seksual pada anak difabel mental intelektual.---Sex education for children with intellectual disabilities or better known as mental retardation becomes an important issue in the community. This is based on sex education as an effort so that every child with special needs can recognize, understand and manage the development and biological changes that occur in him so as not to get caught up in deviant sexual behavior and most importantly so as not to get sexual violence and harassment from people other. This type of research is qualitative and the sample in this study is the informant or informant using purposive sampling method. This research shows that the role of parents in providing early sex education for children with intellectual mental disabilities begins when their child is 5 years old, with the introduction of intimate organs, how to clean themselves or activities to maintain personal hygiene in the form of bathing, how to dress, what body parts are may and may not be seen and touched by others as an effort to prevent sexual violence in children with intellectual disabilities.

The success of cancer vaccines is dependent on the delivery of tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) within lymphoid tissue in the context of costimulatory molecules and immune stimulatory cytokines. Dendritic cells (DCs) are commonly utilized to elicit antitumor immune responses due to their attractive costimulatory molecule and cytokine expression profile. However, the efficacy of DC-based vaccines is limited by the poor viability and lymph-node migration of exogenously generated DCsin vivo. Alternatively, adoptively transferred T cells persist for long periods of timein vivoand readily migrate between the lymphoid and vascular compartments. In addition, T cells may be genetically modified to express both TAA and DC-activating molecules, suggesting that T cells may be ideal candidates to serve as cellular vehicles for antigen delivery to lymph node-resident DCsin vivo. This paper discusses the concept of using T cells to induce tumor-specific immunity for vaccination against cancer.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of prestige sensitivity on mobile phone customer’s price acceptance in Vietnam and the mediating role of product knowledge and price mavenism on this relationship. We used the convenience sampling method for data collection via questionnaires with a sample of 605 consumers who purchased mobile phones. The collected data was analysed by applying a structural equation modelling method. The result indicates that prestige sensitivity has both direct and indirect effects on price acceptance via product knowledge and price mavenism. The findings suggest that prestige sensitivity can be used as a market segmentation criterion for mobile phones when making price decisions and providing customers with adequate information could improve price acceptance.
