Latar Belakang: Tujuan studi ini adalah membandingkan terapi antara siklofosfamid dan mikofenolat mofetil pada remisi nefritis lupus melalui sebuah laporan kasus berbasis bukti (evidence-based case report) yang diperoleh dari telaah sistematis dan meta-analisis. Metode: Metode yang digunakan pada studi ini adalah laporan kasus berbasis bukti menggunakan telaah sistematis dan meta-analisis. Pertanyaan klinis adalah manakah terapi imunosupresan yang memberikan hasil lebih baik pada remisi nefritis lupus; siklofosfamid atau mikofenolat mofetil? Untuk menjawab pertanyaan tersebut, kami melakukan pencarian dari situs PubMed dengan kata kunci ?lupus nephritis AND mycophenolate mofetil AND cyclophosphamide? dengan batasan telaah sistematis dan/atau meta-analisis, bahasa Inggris, dan hanya melakukan perbandingan secara spesifik terhadap kedua obat. Hasil: Dari pencarian awal, kami memperoleh 11 artikel telaah sistematis dan/atau meta-analisis terkait terapi nefritis lupus. Satu artikel dieksklusi karena berbahasa Yahudi, empat artikel lain dieksklusi karena tidak spesifik melakukan perbandingan terhadap mikofenolat mofetil dan siklofosfamid sehingga diperoleh enam studi yang ikut serta dalam telaah kritis dan diskusi laporan kasus kami. Kesimpulan: Berdasarkan bukti-bukti ilmiah yang diperoleh, mikofenolat mofetil memberikan efektivitas yang sama (non-inferior) dengan siklofosfamid dalam mencapai remisi pada nefritis lupus, tetapi memiliki tingkat keamanan yang lebih baik daripada siklofosfamid. Pasien pada kasus mendapatkan mikofenolat mofetil dan telah menunjukkan perbaikan secara klinis ke arah remisi pada evaluasi pasca-rawat inap

Background: The aim of this case study is to compare the effectiveness between cyclophosphamide and mycophenolate mofetil to achieve remission of lupus nephritis in an evidence-based case report from meta-analyses. Methods: Method in this case study is evidence-based case report using meta-analyses. Clinical question used in this paper is; which immunosuppressant gives better result in achieving remission in lupus nephritis patient: cyclophosphamide or mycophenolate mofetil? To answer this question, we search the evidence from PubMed with the keywords: ?lupus nephritis AND mycophenolate mofetil AND cyclophosphamide? with inclusion criteria of meta-analysis, written in English, and focused comparing cyclophosphamide and mycophenolate mofetil. Results: From the searching method, we found 11 articles which is relevant. One has been excluded since it written in Hebrew, 4 articles excluded since are not focus answering the clinical question. At the end, 6 studies were included to the critical appraisal step. Conclusion: Based on the evidences, mycophenolate mofetil is non-inferior to cyclophosphamide in achieving remission in lupus nephritis patients, but with the better safety profile. Patient in our case study get mycophenolate mofetil and shows better clinical condition towards remission as she are evaluated in the outpatient clinic.

Tuberculosis remains to be one of the most common problems in developing countries such as Indonesia. It can involve many organs including gastrointestinal tract. Colonic tuberculosis is an ancient disease and has long been recognized. However, it is sometimes difficult to make early diagnosis due to nonspecific sign and symptoms. In endemic areas, correct diagnoses were made only 50% of the time. Without a high index of suspicion of the disease, it has been rarely diagnosed correctly. We reported a case of colonic tuberculosis in 18 years old female patient with lung tuberculosis.Endoscopic examination showed ulcerative mucosa, 'halo lesion', and pseudopolyp while PPD skin test, sputum smear and histopathological examination of endoscopic biopsy revealed negative for tuberculosis infection. The presence of lung tuberculosis had made high index of suspicion of colonic tuberculosis. Standard regimen of antituberculosis therapy was given and the patient showed good clinical response.
