Objective: To determine the difference of sexual function after vaginal delivery with episiotomy and cesarean section in Sanglah Hospital, Denpasar. Method: This research was conducted using cross sectional method. Sample was collected using consecutive sampling, starting from October 2011-September 2012. Our sample consists of 86 women, 43 post-episiotomy and 43 post-cesarean section. Sexual function was assessed using FSFI (Female Sexual Function Index). Total score was analyzed using independent t-test and difference of sexual function was tested using Chi-square, with significance level p0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in term of sexual arousal and lubrication, with p-value 0.160 and 0.67, respectively. However, we found significant difference in other domains, namely desire (p=0.014), orgasm (p=0.045), satisfaction (p=0.018), pain (p=0.02), and total FSFI score (p=0.006). Sexual dysfunction was found in 18.60% of the episiotomy group and 2.33% of the cesarean section group, with p=0.030. Conclusion: Female sexual dysfunction was found to be significantly different between women post vaginal delivery with episiotomy and women who had cesarean section.

Objective: To study the comparison of encouragement, stimuli, orgasm, pain and satisfaction of female sexual function at 3 months postpartum between spontaneous delivery and cesarean section in Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital in Jakarta. Method: This was an observational research, sexual function was measured at three months post-delivery with Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) questionnaire. The study design used was cross sectional with consecutive sampling. Analysis for comparative nonpaired categorical variables was done using Chi square or Fisher analysis. Analysis for confounding variables was carried out using multivariate logistic regression. Result: From 150 respondents, 43.3% had sexual dysfunction, with 52% of the spontaneous labor group and 34% of the cesarean section group. Bivariate analysis showed that occurrence of sexual dysfunction at three months post-spontaneous labor was 1.5 times higher (95% CI 1.02-3.19) compared with cesarean section. Sexual encouragement shows a two-fold difference (95% CI 1.17-3.40) compared to cesarean section. However, orgasm disturbance was 8 times higher (95% CI 1.90-3.58) in the spontaneous labor group, with confounding variable of perineal rupture. Disturbance of sexual stimuli, satisfaction, and pain were not significantly different between spontaneous labor and cesarean section. Multivariate analysis found that spontaneous labor was statistically significant for sexual dysfunction at three months post-delivery in patients with sexual encouragement (RR=2.716, p=0.008) and orgasm accession dysfunction (RR= 6.952, p=0.031). However, the more than 30 years old of age variable was statistically significant in sexual dysfunction variable with RR= 2.60 and p=0.021. Conclusion: Spontaneous labor is statistically significant for sexual dysfunction at three months post-delivery, especially for sexual encouragement and orgasm accession. Meanwhile, the variables with the age of 30 years old or older of age were influential on sexual dysfunction, especially to the sexual stimuli variable.

Objective: To examine the sexual functions and depressive symptoms of infertile and fertile women. Methods: This study was conducted between October 2015 and April 2016 using a descriptive, cross-sectional and comparative design. The sample of this study consisted of 96 infertile and 96 fertile women. The data were collected using an information form, the Beck Depression Inventory and the Index of Female Sexual Function. The data were analyzed The Mann-Whitney U test, chi-square test, and Spearman’s correlation analysis. Results: The rate of sexual dysfunction (87.5% vs. 69.8%) and the Index of Female Sexual Function total score (31.8 ± 7.8 vs 35.7 ± 6.3) were significantly higher in infertile women than fertile women (p=0.003, p<0.001, respectively). The sexual satisfaction and discomfort during sexual intercourse subscales of the Index of Female Sexual Function were significantly lower among infertile women than fertile women (p<0.001 for all); however, no significant difference was observed in the sexual intercourse/libido score of the Index of Female Sexual Function between infertile and fertile women (p=0.590). The correlation coefficients between the Beck Depression Inventory total score and the total and subscale scores of the IFSF did not significantly differ between infertile and fertile women (p>0.05 for all). Conclusion: The sexual dysfunction rate among infertile women was higher than that among fertile women. Sexual functions decreased when depressive symptoms increased for both infertile and fertile women. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.35.5.615 How to cite this:Ozturk S, Sut HK, Kucuk L.

Introduction: Pain during the injection of anesthetic agents may be distressing and can reduce the acceptability of an otherwise useful agent such as propofol during daycare surgeries. Lidocaine and ketamine both are used as pre-treatment to decrease propofol induced pain. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of ketamine injection to decrease propofol-induced pain in comparison to lidocaine injection. Methodology: This is a prospective cross-sectional comparative study. Eighty-nine cases were divided into two groups where group K received ketamine 2 ml (0.2 mg/kg) whereas group L received lidocaine 2% 2ml (0.5 mg/kg) after venous occlusion with rubber tourniquet. One-fourth dose of propofol was injected 1 min after release of tourniquet and pain accessed at 0, 1, and 2 minutes of propofol injection with a verbal response and behavioral signs. Chi-square test and paired T-test were used and a p-value less than 0.05 was considered significant. Result: Regarding hemodynamic, oxygenation, and adverse effects there was no significant difference. Immediately after propofol injection, only 1 patient of the ketamine group had mild pain (2.22%) while 12 patients from the lignocaine group had mild pain (27.27%) with a p-value of 0.009. Also after 2 minutes of propofol injection, only 12 cases had mild pain i.e. 13.48% (1 from ketamine group i.e. 2.22% and 11 from lidocaine group i.e. 25%) with p-value of 0.002. Conclusion: Our study helps prove low-dose ketamine is more effective in reducing the incidence and severity of pain on injection of propofol in comparison to Lidocaine with better hemodynamic stability.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Facial skeletal asymmetry is commonly found in humans and its main characteristic is menton deviation. The literature suggests that occlusal and masticatory problems arising from tooth absence could be related to the development of such asymmetries. Objective: The aim of this cross-sectional study was to estimate the prevalence of mandibular skeletal asymmetries and to investigate its association with posterior tooth absences. Methods: Tomographic images of 952 individuals aged from 18 to 75 years old were used. Asymmetry was the analyzed outcome, and it was categorized into three groups according to gnathion displacement in relation to the midsagittal plane (relative symmetry, moderate asymmetry, and severe asymmetry). Patients were sorted by the presence of all posterior teeth, unilateral posterior tooth absence, or bilateral posterior tooth absence. Chi-square test with a significance level of 5% was used to verify the association between posterior tooth absence and asymmetry. Results: Results show relative symmetry present in 55.3% of the sample, as well as the prevalence of 27.3% for moderate mandibular asymmetry and 17.4% for severe asymmetry. Moderate and severe mandibular asymmetries occurred in a higher proportion in patients with unilateral posterior tooth absence. However, there was no statistically significant difference between the analyzed groups (p = 0.691). Conclusions: In this study, mandibular asymmetries did not present any association with the absence of teeth on the posterior area of the arch.

Background: The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of cold dialysis solution on the sexual dysfunction of patients with chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis. Methods: This randomized clinical trial was conducted with a before and after parallel design among 60 hemodialysis patients diagnosed with sexual dysfunction. The selected subjects were randomly allocated to the two groups of experimental and control (30 per each). Patients in the experimental and control groups underwent hemodialysis for one month using 35.5°C and 37°C dialysis solutions, respectively. Following the procedure, male and female sexual function was assessed in the study groups. Data were collected using the International Index of Erectile Functions, the female sexual function index (FSFI), and a demographic questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using Chi-square, Fisher's exact test, Mann-Whitney U test, t-test, paired t-test, and Wilcoxon test at 95% confidence interval. Results: No significant difference was observed between the experimental and control groups regarding male sexual function before and after the intervention (P > 0.05). However, the Mann-Whitney U test indicated a significant difference in the female subjects’ arousal in the experimental group before (3.68 ± 0.38) and after the intervention (3.98 ± 0.46; z = 2.216; P = 0.027). Conclusions: Cold dialysis solution could only increase the sexual arousal of the women in the experimental group, and no changes were observed in other sexual function domains of the male and female patients. Given the short duration of our intervention, it is recommended that further longitudinal studies be performed on larger cohorts of patients in different geographical regions.
