Abstract

ABSTRAK Secara global, pandemi Corona Virus Disease-19 (COVID-19) telah menyebabkan 4,2 juta kematian. Kekurangan vitamin D ditengarai sebagai salah satu faktor tingginya angka kematian akibat COVID-19. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis hubungan antara kekurangan vitamin D dengan angka kematian COVID-19. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian tinjauan sistematik yang dilaksanakan pada bulan April – Juni 2021, di Departemen Kesehatan Masyarakat dan Pengobatan Pencegahan FK Unair Surabaya. Dengan menggunakan Pubmed dan Science Direct, kami menemukan total 86 artikel ilmiah yang terkait. Analisis dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) dengan 17 artikel memenuhi syarat untuk analisis lebih lanjut. Sebanyak dua artikel yang memenuhi kriteria kelayakan dimasukkan dalam penelitian ini. Satu artikel menemukan bahwa defisiensi vitamin D dikaitkan dengan kematian pada pasien COVID-19 yang dirawat di rumah sakit (p = 0,003), sementara artikel lain menemukan bahwa defisiensi vitamin D dikaitkan dengan kematian COVID-19 pada pasien berusia diatas 65 tahun (p = 0,009). Studi ini menyimpulkan bahwa kekurangan vitamin D terkait dengan tingkat kematian COVID-19. ABSTRACT Globally, Coronavirus Disease–19 (COVID–19) pandemics have led to 4.2 million deaths. Vitamin D deficiency is suspected as one factor of COVID-19 high mortality. This study aims to analyze the relationship between vitamin D deficiency and COVID-19 mortality rate. This research is a systematic review study conducted in April - June 2021, at Public Health and Preventive Medicine Department, FK Unair Surabaya. By using Pubmed and Science Direct, we found a total of 86 related scientific articles. An analysis was performed using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) method with 17 articles qualified for further analysis. A total of two articles that fulfilled eligibility criteria were included in this study. One article found that vitamin D deficiency was associated with mortality in hospitalized COVID-19 patients (p = 0.003), while another article found that vitamin D deficiency was associated with COVID-19 mortality in patients over 65 years old (p = 0.009). This studi conclude that vitamin D deficiency is related with COVID-19 mortality rates.

Abstract

Introduction: Conjunctival cysts can be categorized as primary or secondary. This report emphasizes difficulties in diagnosing secondary conjunctival cysts and distinguishing them from other conjunctival lesions like conjunctival benign reactive lymphoid hyperplasia (BRLH). Case Presentation: A 43-year-old male had a painless progressive conjunctival mass for four months. He took anti-aging and muscle-enhancing injections for a year and changed the product brand four months ago. Our examination revealed a conjunctival translucent mass with distinct margins and surface-feeding vessels without visual disturbance. We provisionally diagnosed it as a conjunctival cyst with a differential diagnosis of BRLH. We treated the patient with oral methylprednisolone and dexamethasone eye drops and discontinuation of anti-aging injections. The mass completely disappeared after one month of treatment. Conclusions: This case presented a diagnostic challenge due to the presence of a feeding vessel, which indicated inflammation. This made differentiating from inflamed conjunctival masses, such as BRLH, difficult. The patient had a history of suspected inflammation from changing the brand of injectable drug. Initially, we used steroids to reduce inflammation and prevent mass growth, but surprisingly, the lesion completely disappeared. If it recurs, a biopsy may be needed to identify the exact cause, as we have not ruled out BRLH. Secondary conjunctival cysts can result from toxins, trauma, or allergies. A thorough history taking, eye examination, and biopsy may be necessary to rule out other causes of inflamed conjunctival masses.
