The New Ropanasuri Journal of Surgery
Introduction. Gastrointestinal (GI) obstruction is a condition that often requires surgery and can lead to severe complications. The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been used as an inflammation indicator in various medical conditions, but research on the relationship between NLR and GI obstruction is still limited. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the role of NLR as a cost-effective and simple preoperative predictor of postoperative mortality and morbidity, mainly surgical site infection, in adult patients with GI obstruction.
Method. This cross-sectional study was conducted at Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital in Jakarta. The study sample consists of 150 adult patients with GI …

Introduction. The strategy for treating limb soft tissue sarcoma (STS) is challenging due to delayed diagnosis and the non-specific clinical picture, leading to the mortality of nearly 50% of newly diagnosed patients. Various therapeutic modalities have been applied to increase the survival of patients with extremity soft tissue sarcoma. However, clinicopathological factors can influence the survival rate and thus affect the effectiveness of therapy. This study aims to determine the numbers and factors influencing overall survival five years after treatment for patients with soft tissue sarcoma of the extremities at Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital (CMGH) in 2011-2015.
