{slider=IPPT PHD CANDIDATE WON THE BEST ORAL PRESENTATION IN 25^th CONGRESS OF THE OBSTETRICAL & GYNAECOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF MALAYSIA}

BERTAM, July 28, 2017: RNA-Bio Research group of Infectomic Cluster, IPPT, attended 25^th Congress of the Obstetrical & Gynaecological Society of Malaysia, held in Kuala Lumpur recently. IPPT PhD candidate, Ang Kai Cheen, presented her PhD finding in oral presentation entitled “Evaluation of M2/ANXA5 Haplotype as Repeated Spontaneous Abortions Risk Factor in the Malaysian Malay Population”, while their collaborator, Dr Anna Liza Roslani, Obstetrician and Gynaecologist, now at Kuantan Medical Centre, presented a case study entitled “Intervention of Low-Molecular-Weight Heparin in M2/ANXA5 Haplotype Carriers: A Case Report in Pregnancy”.

Repeated Spontaneous Abortions (RSA) is a major topic in reproductive medicine, affecting 1/20 pregnant woman worldwide. It has an adverse psychosocial impact in women and their families. The incidence of RSA is relatively high among the Malay population of Malaysia. Conventional hereditary thrombophilia factors have been generally ruled out. The group evaluated a new predisposition thrombophilia factor, M2/ANXA5 (RPRGL3). The carrier rate of M2/ANXA5 for the general Malay population was 42.2 % with an elevated RSA risk (OR=1.53) specifically for early fetal losses (gestational weeks ≤ 15). Exceeding copy numbers of M2/ANXA5 alleles seemed to contribute a higher risk in RSA couples especially when both partners were M2 carriers. They confirmed the role of M2/ANXA5 as a genetically associated thrombophilia predisposition factor for RSA among ethnic Malay of Malaysia. Dr. Anna Liza presented a case-report study showing that an intervention with low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) could be a successful anticoagulant treatment for M2/ANXA5 carriers with RSA, rendering healthy pregnancy outcome. They proposed the necessary screening of M2/ANXA5 haplotype for two reasons:

1. To assess the risk of having repeated spontaneous abortion
2. It could lead to preventive intervention – anticoagulant (low-molecular-weight-heparin) treatment

Congratulation to Ang KC for wining the best oral presentation in the congress. The project was funded under USM RU grant no: 1001/CIPPT/812100. The financial support from Institute Postgraduate Studies, USM and MyBrain15 program from Ministry of Education were acknowledged.

{slider=CHARITY VISIT AND ROUND ISLAND ARTICLE}

BERTAM, 6 May 2017 – AMDI Student Association had recently organized a charity visit to Pure Lotus Hospice of Compassion and Round Island Trip as part of their annual activity for this year. A total of 15 students and 1 lecturer were involved in this very meaningful activity. This charity visit was conducted in order to show support from the community towards the people in needs especially the residents at Pure Lotus Hospice of Compassion which consists of patients at their end stage of cancer. Meanwhile, the round island trip was conducted in order to give the chance to both local and international students to visit some of the places of interest around Georgetown, Penang. This activity was also organized to help build and enhance the relationship among students of AMDI.

Upon arrival at the Pure Lotus Hospice of Compassion, the director, Madam Venerable Lyan Shih gave a short briefing about the history and the purposes of their non-government organization (NGO) where they help to take care end stage cancer patients without family. The students helped to do some cleaning of the yard, gardening and housekeeping in order to create a better and cleaner environment for the patients to enjoy. Apart from that, the students also donated some amount of money on behalf of AMDI Student Association to help the organization maintaining their excellent nature of works in helping those in needs.

After the memorable charity visit, the students then headed to Padang Kota Lama, Georgetown and began their Round Island Trip. The students went to Penang Street Art which is one of the most well-known places to visit in Penang where the students had the opportunity to take stunning pictures with the hand-painted wall arts. The students then went to Penang Time Tunnel: The History Museum where they managed to learn a lot of valuable history of Penang Island and enhanced their knowledge on the place where they study. The activity continues to Penang 3D Trick Art Museum which is also one of the most exciting places to visit as it is equipped with the coolest and mind-blowing 3D arts that looks really awesome in photos.

 In a nutshell, this Charity Visit and Round Island Trip organized by AMDI Student Association is a very good activity with a lot of positive impact towards both the participants and the community and it should definitely be conducted again in the future. This activity was organized by Muhammad Syamil Bin Mohd Suib under the advice of Dr. Doblin Sandai (AMDI Student Association Advisor).

{slider=FIRST MEETING ON COORDINATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF PROGRAMMES BETWEEN PPSP AND IPPT}

Bertam, Kepala Batas 15 March 2017 – PPSP top management led by the Dean, Professor Dr Shaiful Bahari Ismail paid a half day working visit to IPPT. This visit marks the official platform where IPPT and PPSP will meet to discuss collaborative efforts between the two PTJs under the Medical and Health cluster in USM.

Other team members from PPSP were Profesor Dr Rosline Hassan (Deputy Dean for Research), Profesor Dr. Abdul Razak Sulaiman (Deputy Dean for Postgraduate and Professional Training), Profesor Dr. Dinsuhaimi Sidek (Coordinator for Networking & Linkages) and Puan Noor Hayati Muhammad (Deputy Registrar for Health Campus). Delegates were welcomed by IPPT top management Dr Norehan Mokhtar (Director), Professor Narazah Mohd Yusoff (Deputy Director for Research), Associate Professor Dr Bakiah Shaharuddin (Deputy Director for Academic), Dr Muhamad Yusri Musa (Deputy Director for Clinical Services), Encik Ihsanul Anwar (Senior Assistant Registrar) and Heads of Cluster – Dr Shahrul Bariyah Sahul Hamid, Dr Mohammad Farris Iman Leong Abdullah, Dr Nur Arzuar Abdul Rahim and Dr Hasni Arsad (IMC representative).

During the meeting, PPSP delegates were briefed on IPPT clinical services which demonstrated the specialized areas in Oncology management that IPPT has carved a niche in, especially in breast, colorectal and head and neck cancers. Among the oncology mode of treatment, IPPT strives to be the main referral centre for brachytherapy and IMRT for head and neck cancers. Future collaborative efforts are in the pipeline between PPSP and IPPT in various aspects of clinical services to add values to the existing areas and to forge new ventures where both parties will be able to complement each other.

Further discussion on academic appointments (lantikan silang), support for academic programmes, optimization of resources in diagnostic laboratories and sharing of teaching materials were also conducted in a very positive discourse. Existing research collaboration may be enhanced when researchers from both PTJs are engaged in a favourable and stimulating scientific communication in the future.

The visit ended on a high positive note with a short walk around CTC facilities. We hope this will be the first among many discussions to strengthen the cooperation between IPPT and other PTJs of Health Campus, USM.
