Telangiectasias and microvessels are the most common types of varicose veins, usually their appearance is related to genetic susceptibility, normally affecting the lower limbs of the body. The PEIM (Aesthetic Injectable Procedure in Microvessels) has been widely used to eliminate telangiectasias and microvessels. Therefore, the objective was to describe the effectiveness of liquid sclerosing agents in the treatment of telangiectasias and microvessels. This work is part of a literary review covering the period between 1986 and 2020 using Scielo, Google Scholar and Pubmed platforms. Telangiectasias and microvessels generally do not present health problems, most of the time the problem is esthetic without pathological character. Currently, there are several sclerosing substances used in the treatment, in this case, hypertonic glucose is identified as one of the most used sclerosing agents, because, even though a treatment takes a little longer to obtain results, it is a little painful, the risk of complications is lower and procedure value is affordable. Although the sclerotherapy technique has been used for a long time, so far no sclerosant with absence and complications and totally effective has been discovered, even though there are case studies that report to the contrary, thus, this literature review shows that more studies are needed. to prove the efficacy and safety of hypertonic glucose.

Pendahuluan: Penyakit gagal ginjal merupakan gangguan fungsi ginjal yang terjadi saat tubuh tidak bisa mempertahankan metabolisme, keseimbangan cairan serta elektrolit sehingga menyebabkan terjadinya retensi urea dan sampah nitrogen dalam darah. Hemodialisa menjadi pilihan terapi untuk mengatasi gagal ginjal kronik. Hemodialisa dilakukan dengan alat khusus untuk mempertahankan fungsi ginjal dengan menyeimbangkan kadar elektrolit dan keseimbangan cairan tubuh. Hemodialisa yang dilakukan dalam waktu lama dapat menyebabkan gangguan pada aspek biologis maupun aspek psikologis bagi pasien hemodialisa. Sebanyak 48,6 % pasien hemodialisa mengalami gangguan kecemasan. Salah satu non-farmakologi terapi untuk mengurangi kecemasan yaitu relaksasi benson yang dilakukan selama 15-20 menit setiap pagi dan sore hari. Tujuan dari penelitian untuk mengetahui efektivitas relaksasi benson terhadap kecemasan pada pasien yang menjalani hemodialisa. Metode yang digunakan untuk penelitian ini adalah studi literature review dengan membandingkan beberapa literature dari penelusuran situs jurnal seperti Sciendirect, PubMed, Elsevier dan Google Schoolar Hasil Penelitian menunjukkan relaksasi benson yang dilakukan sehari 2 kali selama 15-20 menit efektif untuk mengatasi masalah kecemasan pada pasien yang melakukan hemodialiasa. Kesimpulan: relakasi benson efektif dan bekerja dengan baik dalam menurunkan kadar kecemasan pada pasien hemodialisa Kata Kunci : gagal ginjal kronik, Hemodialisa, Cemas, Relaksasi Benson. Abstract: Introduction: Kidney failure is a disorder of kidney function that occurs when the body cannot maintain metabolism, fluid and electrolyte balance, causing retention of urea and nitrogen waste in the blood. Hemodialysis is a therapeutic option for treating chronic renal failure. Hemodialysis is performed with special tools to maintain kidney function by balancing electrolyte levels and body fluid balance. Hemodialysis that is carried out for a long time can cause disturbances in biological and psychological aspects for hemodialysis patients. As many as 48.6% of hemodialysis patients experienced anxiety disorders. One of the non-pharmacological therapies to reduce anxiety is benson relaxation which is done for 15-20 minutes every morning and evening. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of Benson relaxation on anxiety in patients undergoing hemodialysis. The method used for this research is a literature review study by comparing some literature from searching journal sites such as Sciendirect, PubMed, Elsevier and Google Schoolar. The results showed that Benson relaxation which is carried out twice a day for 15-20 minutes is effective in overcoming anxiety problems in patients with do regular hemodialysis. Conclusion: Benson Relaxation is effective and works well in reducing anxiety levels in hemodialysis patients Keywords: chronic renal failure, hemodialysis, anxiety, Benson Relaxation

The ideas of materiality and embodiment are explored in this article. It considers the contribution of archaeology to the interdisciplinary study of materiality and embodiment, focusing especially on the emergence of the archaeology of the body since the late 1980s. Human bodies have been a focus of archaeological study for a long time, with two divergent modes of analysis. What follows in this article is a review of some of the ways in which archaeologists have attempted to overcome these disciplinary limitations, by deploying a range of anti-foundationalist perspectives to theorize the embodied agency of past people. It further explores how questions of materiality have entered into the debates around embodiment. Finally this article presents two case studies. The first considers the use of apotropaic devices in seventeenth-century England, and the second looks at how the agency of the dead body is portrayed in discourse around contemporary forensic archaeology. An analysis of relations after death in forensic archaeology concludes this article.

The scientific review manuscript from the results of this literature review elaborates the changes that occur in the body as an impact of old immobilization. Immobilization is a condition in which a person experiences movement limitations as a result of interference in the body's organs. The limitation of this physical movement as a physiological change in the body results from a period of time immobilization. Physiological changes during immobilization in a long time cause disruption of adaptation in the musculoskeletal includes permanent disruption of mobilization that will affect muscle endurance and decrease muscle mass, atrophy and muscle stability. In the cardiovascular section includes orthostatic hypotension disorders and thrombus formation, whereas on the respiration section includes disturbances in the decrease in various of lung volumes as a result of weakening of the respiratory muscles so that it affects the respiratory motion. By understanding the physiological changes that occur as a result of immobilization in a long time, it is expected that this literature review can find out how the prevention process and further the handling process.

Prolonged standing at work has been linked to health problems including foot, leg and back pain, varicose veins, circulatory problems, including a possible increased stroke risk. [1]. There are many other potentially very serious health concerns. Worsening of existing coronary heart disease as well as varicose veins and chronic venous insufficiency has been associated with prolonged standing. Pain in the lower limbs and feet are also associated. [2] Studies suggest back pain associated with long surgery is about twice as common in those who stand compared to those medical staff who usually work sitting, even after controlling for age and lifting weights. The main reason is the back position must to be inclinate in the most part of the surgery. The design of orthesis for the lower extremity with chest support represents an alternative to medical staff health problems who standing for long periods on surgical procedure. The surgical orthesis system proposal in this research is positioned on middle side of the leg and is designed such that support the body weight during the surgical procedure. The system can be used for release pressure on ankle, knee and hip joints.

SummaryOver the past ten years endoveous treatment options for varicose veins have evovled considerably, offering clinicians a multitude of options to meet the needs of their patients. The endothermal ablation procedures have moved to the forefront as the choice modality for treating truncal reflux. Both radiofrequency ablation and endovenous laser ablation are widely accepted and interchangeable, showing comparable efficacy and safety. Although numerous endovenous laser wavelengths exist, the data indicates that the differences do not affect the efficacy or postoperative recovery of the procedure. The endovenous laser innovation that has shown early evidence of improved patient outcome is the jacket-tip fiber. The versatility of sclerotherapy makes it a critical component in the endovenous treatment of varicosities. Although not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (USA), the use of a foamed sclerosing agent is the fastest growing segment of sclerotherapy and an important treatment modality in the future of varicose vein treatment. Cutaneous lasers and intense pulse light devices contribute a crucial element, enabling clinicians to treat minute veins that may be impossible to treat with other therapies.

Background and Importance: Spondylodiscitis is an inflammatory disease of the body of one or more vertebrae and intervertebral disc. The fungal etiology of this disease is rare, particularly in patients without immunodeficiency. Delay in diagnosis and treatment of this disease can lead to complications and even death. Case Presentation: A 63-year-old diabetic female patient, who had a history of spinal surgery and complaining radicular lumbar pain in both lower limbs with a probable diagnosis of spondylodiscitis, underwent partial L2 and complete L3 and L4 corpectomy and fusion. As a result of pathology from tissue biopsy specimen, Aspergillus fungi were observed. There was no evidence of immunodeficiency in the patient. The patient was treated with Itraconazole 100 mg twice a day for two months. Pain, neurological symptom, and laboratory tests improved. Conclusion: The debridement surgery coupled with antifungal drugs can lead to the best therapeutic results.

The objective: study the features of gynecological, physical history, diagnosis and treatment of patients with benign epithelial ovarian tumors (BeEOT) and borderline epithelial ovarian tumors (BEOT), determining the frequency of recurrence of ovarian tumors in the postoperative period. Patients and methods. According to a retrospective analysis of case histories of 112 women with epithelial ovarian tumors (EOT) underwent conservative or radical surgical treatment in a hospital, two groups were formed: I group – patients with benign epithelial ovarian tumors (BeEOT), which amounted to 85 (75.9%) women, and group II – patients with borderline epithelial ovarian tumors (BEOT), which amounted to 27 (24.1%) women. It was found that the main complaints of patients with EOT were pain (49.1%), abdominal distension (17%), and abnormal uterine bleeding (12.5%). The highest incidence of BeEOT (31.8%) observed in the age group of 41–50 years, while the peak incidence of BEOT (44.4%) corresponds to the age group of 51–60 years. Results. In BEOT endocrine pathology occurs significantly more frequently (p<0.05) than in BeEOT – 25.9% vs. 9.4%, respectively. Pathology of pancreatic-hepatobiliary system occurs significantly more frequently (p<0.05) in patients with BEOT compared with BeEOT – 81.5% versus 57.6%, respectively. Venous disorders (varicose veins of the pelvic organs, lower limbs, haemorrhoids) observed in BEOT significantly more frequently (p<0.05) than in BeEOT – 18.5% vs. 5.9%, respectively. EOT most often diagnosed in the period from 1 to 6 months after the first clinical manifestations with an average uptake of medical care 4.6±0.57 months. In assessing of peritoneal exudate cytogram the mesothelium cells are significantly more common for BeEOT (p<0.01) than BEOT – 79.4% versus 40.9%, respectively. Cervicitis is more likely significantly to occur in BeEOT (p<0.01) than in BEOT – 29.4% vs. 7.4%, respectively. The most common histological type among the benign tumors of the ovaries are endometriomas, which occurred in 48.2% of all BeEOT cases, and among the borderline tumors – serous tumors, which accounted for 59.3% of all BEOTs. Conclusion. The use of organ sparing surgery in EOT increases the risk of recurrence, especially in the case of endometrial histology or borderline variant of tumor. Key words: benign and borderline epithelial ovarian tumors, clinical-anamnestic analysis, diagnosis, treatment.

The aims of this paper is to explain the use of high heels as an agency for a woman's body. Agency context refers to pain in the body but pain is perceived as something positive. In this paper, the method used is a literature review by reviewing writings related to the use of high heels. The findings in this paper that women experience body image disturbance or anxiety because they feel themselves are not beautiful or not attractive. The use of high heels, makes women more attractive and more confident, on the other hand the use of high heels actually makes women feel pain and discomfort. However, for the achievement of beauty standards, women voluntarily allow their bodies to experience pain. However, the agency's willingness to beauty standards here is meaningless without filtering and directly accepted. Instead women keep negotiating with themselves so as to make a decision why use high heels.
