Abstract

Total cholesterol measurement is an essential laboratory examination for assessing cardiovascular risk and monitoring lipid metabolism. However, immediate analysis is not always feasible in routine clinical practice, making refrigerated storage a common pre-analytical procedure. This study aimed to compare total cholesterol levels between serum samples analyzed immediately after collection and serum samples stored at 2–8°C for seven days. A quantitative analytical observational study with a repeated-measurement comparative design was conducted at Bhayangkara Hospital, Gorontalo, Indonesia, from June to July 2025. Fifteen paired serum samples were selected using accidental sampling. Total cholesterol concentrations were measured using the BioSystem BA200 automated chemistry analyzer. Differences between immediate and delayed analyses were evaluated using the paired-samples t-test after confirmation of data normality. Of the 15 samples, seven (47%) had normal cholesterol levels and eight (53%) had abnormal levels. The mean total cholesterol concentration increased slightly from 203 mg/dL to 206 mg/dL after seven days of refrigerated storage. However, the paired-samples t-test showed no statistically significant difference between the two conditions (p = 0.052). These findings indicate that serum storage at 2–8°C for up to seven days maintains total cholesterol stability and can be considered an acceptable pre-analytical practice when immediate laboratory analysis is not feasible.

Abstract

Cigarette smoking during adolescence may affect hematological function through exposure to carbon monoxide, oxidative compounds, and other tobacco-related toxicants. This study aimed to determine the association between cigarette smoking frequency and red blood cell (RBC) values among active adolescent smokers in Lekobalo Village, Kota Barat District. A quantitative analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted in September 2025. The study involved 30 active smokers aged 15–19 years who consumed 3–10 cigarettes per day and were selected using random sampling. Smoking frequency was assessed through self-reported daily cigarette consumption, while RBC values were determined through laboratory examination of venous blood samples. Descriptive statistics and inferential analysis were performed, with statistical significance set at p < 0.05. Participants reported a mean smoking frequency of 6.13 ± 2.193 cigarettes per day, while the mean RBC concentration was 4.2020 ± 0.29847 million/µL, with values ranging from 3.70 to 4.76 million/µL. Inferential analysis demonstrated a statistically significant association between smoking frequency and RBC examination results (F = 11.623, p < 0.001). These findings indicate that variation in cigarette consumption was associated with variation in RBC values among adolescent smokers. However, the cross-sectional design does not establish a causal relationship. Early smoking prevention, cessation counseling, and appropriate hematological monitoring should be strengthened to reduce potential biological consequences of tobacco exposure among adolescents.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui gambaran kadar kreatinin pada pasien hipertensi sebagai indikator fungsi ginjal di RSUD Toto Kabila. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain deskriptif observasional dengan pendekatan cross-sectional. Sampel penelitian berjumlah 15 pasien hipertensi yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan dipilih menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Pemeriksaan kadar kreatinin serum dilakukan di Laboratorium RSUD Toto Kabila menggunakan Automatic Chemistry Analyzer Mindray BS-380, sedangkan data dianalisis secara univariat dan disajikan dalam bentuk distribusi frekuensi, persentase, serta deskripsi karakteristik responden. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa 13 responden (86,7%) memiliki kadar kreatinin dalam kategori normal (0,5–1,3 mg/dL), sedangkan 2 responden (13,3%) memiliki kadar kreatinin abnormal (>1,3 mg/dL). Mayoritas responden berjenis kelamin perempuan (73,3%) dan berada pada kelompok usia 45–59 tahun. Nilai kadar kreatinin berkisar antara 0,54 mg/dL hingga 25,07 mg/dL, dengan dua responden menunjukkan peningkatan kadar kreatinin yang mengindikasikan adanya penurunan fungsi ginjal. Disimpulkan bahwa sebagian besar pasien hipertensi di RSUD Toto Kabila masih memiliki kadar kreatinin dalam batas normal, namun sebagian kecil telah mengalami peningkatan kadar kreatinin yang berpotensi menunjukkan gangguan fungsi ginjal. Oleh karena itu, pemeriksaan kreatinin serum secara berkala perlu dilakukan sebagai upaya deteksi dini dan pemantauan fungsi ginjal pada pasien hipertensi.
