Abstract

Introduction: Acute coronary syndrome mainly occurs as a result of plaque rupture of atherosclerosis. Apolipoprotein B (apoB) is a large glycoprotein, playing a role in lipoprotein metabolism and human lipid transport reflecting the number of circulating atherogenic particles. The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship of serum apoB levels with coronary lesion severity. Method: This is a cross-sectional study involving patients who was diagnosed with Non-ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI) who underwent coronary angiography in November 2021 to July 2022. The NSTEMI criteria follow the Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction and coronary severity is assessed using a SYNTAX score. Bivariate analysis was conducted looking for the relationship between apoB with SYNTAX scores with p<0.05 considered statistically significant. Results: The subjects of the study is 70 people, dominated by male 50 patients (71.4%). The median age of the subjects was 56 (38-77) years. Median levels of apoB was 107 (32-150) mg/dL. The average SYNTAX score was 25.66 ± 10.83. Using the Pearson correlation test, it was shown that there is a significant correlation between apoB and coronary lesion severity obtained r=0.442 (p<0.001). Conclusion: There is a significant correlation between apoB and coronary lesion severity using SYNTAX scores in NSTEMI patients.

Abstract

Introduction: Mitral stenosis and regurgitation, are common throughout the world. Peak Left Atrial Strain (PALS) is a parameter for assessing left atrial deformation in the evaluation of atrial function and a predictor of long-term outcome of various heart diseases. In this study, we assessed the relationship between PALS and the severity of mitral stenosis and mitral regurgitation Methods: This is a cross-sectional study on 119 subjects with mitral stenosis and 103 mitral regurgitation who met the inclusion criteria at Haji Adam Malik General Hospital. PALS measurements were taken. Data were analyzed univariate, bivariate, correlate to assess the relationship between PALS and the severity of mitral valve disease Results: 119 patients with severe mitral stenosis. In mitral stenosis, the mean PALS is 8.2 (4.9-22.8). PALS was significantly higher in patients with sinus rhythm than in the group with AF (10.29 ± 3.89 vs 8.63 ± 7.8%; P = 0.002). PALS had a significant correlation with MVA, pressure gradient, and PHT (r = 0.676, P = <0.001; r=-0.594, P= 0.001 and r=-0.594, P= 0.001). Whereas in mitral regurgitation, it has an average PALS of 15.2 (7.8-19.2). PALS was also significantly higher in patients with sinus rhythm than in the group with AF (16.36 ± 2.43 vs 11.64 ± 2.89%, P = 0.001). PALS has a correlation with VC, PISA, EROA and RVol (r = -0.533, P=0.001; r=-0.618; r=-0.563, P=0.001; r= -0.528, P=0.001). Conclusion: PALS has a significant correlation with the assessment of the severity of mitral stenosis and regurgitation.

Abstract

Introduction: Mitral stenosis (MS) is a heart valve disease characterized by narrowing of the mitral valve, commonly caused by rheumatic heart disease. Accurate evaluation of MS severity is crucial for management, with echocardiography being the gold standard. The Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR), reflecting inflammation, may correlate with MS severity. This study aims to assess the relationship between NLR values and MS severity due to rheumatic heart disease. Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted at H. Adam Malik General Hospital Medan from January 2023 until the required sample size was achieved. Patients diagnosed with MS by echocardiography based on the American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) criteria were included. Echocardiographic parameters such as mitral valve area (MVA) and mean pressure gradient (MV mean PG), along with blood NLR values, were analyzed for associations. Statistical significance was set at P < 0.05. Results: Significant differences in NLR values were observed between mild-to-moderate MS (1.93; 0.82–10.64) and severe MS (3.56; 1.81–13.08) (P = 0.0001, Mann-Whitney test). An NLR threshold of 2.91 predicted severe MS with 82% sensitivity and 81.8% specificity (P = 0.0001; AUC 0.856; 95% CI 0.772–0.940). Conclusion: NLR strongly correlates with MS severity and serves as a reliable predictor for severe MS in patients with rheumatic heart disease. NLR offers a simple, cost-effective tool for assessing MS severity, complementing echocardiography in clinical practice.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Given the urgent need to address the significant morbidity and mortality associated with Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD) in Indonesia, there is a growing interest in exploring cost-effective screening approaches, such as handheld echocardiography.OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to ascertain the prevalence of RHD in North Sumatra, Indonesia.METHODS: This descriptive observational study was conducted within the population of North Sumatra from 2022 to 2023. Junior high school students aged 12 to 15 years were included from randomly selected schools in Langkat, Tebing Tinggi, and Labuhan Batu. Data collection encompassed various parameters, including social demographic information, parental characteristics, environmental factors, household details, anthropometric measurements, physical assessments, auscultation findings, and echocardiographic data. The data were analyzed descriptively.RESULTS: In our study, a total of 692 children were examined, with an average age of 12.9 years and a standard deviation of 1.1 years, among whom 42.5% were male. Utilizing echocardiographic evaluations, we identified RHD in four children, yielding a prevalence rate of 0.6%. Further examination of these cases revealed that the majority, accounting for three individuals (75%), exhibited borderline RHD, while one child (25%) presented with definite RHD.CONCLUSION: In our study population, the prevalence of RHD was 0.6%. A broader echocardiographic screening program is necessary to determine the overall prevalence of RHD, assess the disease burden, and identify individuals earlier to prevent adverse outcomes.

Abstract

Considering the high burden of morbidity and mortality associated with Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD) in Indonesia, there is increasing interest in assessing cost-effective screening modalities, particularly the application of handheld echocardiography. Our study aimed to determine the prevalence of Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD) in Batu Bara, North Sumatra, Indonesia. Our descriptive observational study was carried out in the Batu Bara region of North Sumatra in May 2025. The study population comprised junior high school students aged 10 to 15 years from a selected school in Batu Bara. Data collection included sociodemographic variables, parental characteristics, environmental and household factors, anthropometric measurements, physical examination findings, auscultation results, and echocardiographic evaluations. All data were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods. A total of 190 children were assessed in this study, with a median age of 13 years, and females comprised 54.7% of the participants. Echocardiographic screening detected Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD) in three participants, corresponding to a prevalence of 1.6%. Within our study population, the prevalence of RHD was 1.6%. Expansion of echocardiographic screening programs is warranted to comprehensively establish RHD prevalence, accurately evaluate disease burden, and facilitate earlier detection to mitigate adverse clinical outcomes.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Although heart failure therapy has advanced, many patients still experience functional limitations, which impact their quality of life. OBJECTIVES: To explore the factors influencing heart failure patients' preferences for quality of life and longevity. METHODS: This cross-sectional study was conducted at Adam Malik Hospital, Medan, Indonesia. The study was conducted from April 2023 to October 2023. A total of 143 chronic heart failure patients were included using purposive sampling. Data were collected through interviews and the EuroQol five-dimension five-level questionnaire, EuroQol visual analogue scale, and the Time Trade-Off method. Statistical analysis was performed using multivariate logistic regression. RESULTS: Of the 143 patients, 66.4% preferred quality of life over longevity, and 47.3% were willing to trade two years of their lives for a better quality of life. The main factors associated with this preference were heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (OR: 3.554; 95% CI: 1.373 - 9.198; p: 0.009), diabetes mellitus (OR: 2.705; 95% CI: 1.108 - 6.602; p: 0.029), and lower visual analog scale scores (OR: 0.889; 95% CI: 0.848 - 0.932; p: 0.000). Our results also showed that patients in the longevity group had better ejection fractions, fewer rehospitalizations, and were less likely to have diabetes mellitus or chronic kidney failure compared to the quality of life group. CONCLUSION: The majority of heart failure patients choose quality of life over longevity, and this may be influenced by symptom burden and rehospitalization history. These findings emphasize the importance of patient-centered therapy focusing on symptom management and psychosocial support.
