Abstract

Pasien Covid-19 dapat memiliki gejala yang berkepanjangan setelah dinyatakan negatif SARS-CoV-2. Kondisi ini disebut sebagai long Covid. Kualitas kesehatan masyarakat penyintas Covid-19 tersebut perlu ditingkatkan. Kecamatan Rupat Utara merupakan salah satu daerah pesisir dan perbatasan di Kabupaten Bengkalis, Provinsi Riau. Lokasi tersebut menyebabkan relatif sulitnya akses ke layanan kesehatan tersier. Oleh karena itu, tujuan dari kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini adalah memberikan edukasi dan skrining kesehatan pernapasan pada penyintas Covid-19. Kegiatan pengabdian ini dilaksanakan dengan metode pemberian edukasi berupa pemaparan materi long Covid dan pentingnya vaksinasi Covid-19, pengenalan senam pernapasan, serta pemeriksaan spirometri pada penyintas Covid-19. Hasil dari kegiatan ini adalah meningkatnya pengetahuan warga mengenai long Covid dan vaksinasi Covid-19. Masyarakat juga mengetahui dan dapat mempraktikkan senam pernapasan untuk meningkatkan kesehatan pernapasan. Hasil skrining spirometri menunjukkan peserta memiliki kesehatan pernapasan yang baik. Melalui kegiatan ini, masyarakat terutama penyintas Covid-19 di Rupat Utara dapat memiliki kualitas kesehatan yang baik setelah sembuh dari Covid-19.

Abstract

Background: The relationship between lung cancer (LC) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has been extensively studied but is still up for debate. COPD is a molecularly based illness and one of the independent risk factors for lung cancer, particularly squamous cell carcinoma. This study uses spirometry to assess the relationship between the type and stage of LC and COPD in a group of LC patients at Arifin Achmad Hospital. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on lung cancer patients in Arifin Achmad Hospital, Pekanbaru, from June 2022 to December 2022. Based on spirometry examination, patients were grouped according to the degree of COPD. Then, the relationship between the COPD group and the type and degree of cancer was determined. Results: The study involved 52 patients predominantly male (71.2%), aged over 40 years (92.3%), Smokers and former smokers with Severe Brinkman index (69.2%), restrictive lung function (34.6%), COPD group D (40.4%), adenocarcinoma (61.5%), stage IV lung cancer (92,3%) and WHO Performance Status Scale 2 (61.5%). The FEV1/FVC rate in this study was 66.67%. There is a link between the stage of lung cancer and the group of COPD (P=0.001). Conclusion: There is a relation between the stage of LC in the COPD group, which is predominantly with stage IV lung cancer, and group D of COPD.

Abstract

Background: Worldwide cases of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) have significantly increased since the COVID-19 pandemic. Indonesia accounted for 6,811,818 of the 767,518,723 cases reported by the World Health Organization. While the Indonesian Ministry of Health reported 824,000 cases, the Global Tuberculosis Report in 2022 reported 10.6 million cases. The pandemic has hampered the goal of eliminating PTB globally, with cases diagnosed after COVID-19 having a 7.15-fold increased risk of contracting the illness.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted using total sampling to identify the profile of patients with PTB after having COVID-19 based on age, gender, classification, and type of PTB, as well as the duration of occurrence of PTB after COVID-19. The data collected were from COVID-19 patients from 2020 to 2022, then compared with PTB data. All data were compared to ensure that COVID-19 and PTB patient data were the same.Results: Of the 2544 patients recorded, 29 (1.1%) were infected with PTB after COVID-19 infection. The mean age of patients was 34±18.9 and was dominated by men (68.9%). Most of the cases were drug-sensitive TB (96.6%) and clinically diagnosed TB (55.2%). Age had a statistically significant association with the occurrence of TB cases after COVID-19 infection (P<0.0001). The mean time from the initial diagnosis of COVID-19 to the diagnosis of confirmed TB was approximately 203±34.3 days (6.7 months).Conclusion: After COVID-19, patients have the potential to be infected with TB. Screening former COVID-19 patients can be one solution to finding early cases of PTB.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease that is a global health problem. The problem is that 5-28% of patients receiving tuberculosis treatment suffer from drug-induced hepatitis on antituberculosis drugs (OAT). The clinical picture should be differentiated from other liver diseases. The level of symptoms varies from asymptomatic to symptomatic, such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, jaundice, hepatomegaly, and increased liver function. OAT use is stopped if clinical symptoms are found and ALT/AST increases ≥3 times, or if there are no symptoms but there is an increase in bilirubin ≥2 mg/dl or ALT/AST values ≥5 times without clinical symptoms. The use of OAT can be continued, but with supervision, if there are no clinical symptoms and the increase in ALT/AST is <2 times and the bilirubin value is <2 mg/dl. Treatment can be carried out again by reintroducing OATs one by one according to ATS recommendations.

Abstract

Background: The use of the COVID-19 vaccine is very effective in controlling the pandemic, but it is important to know that no vaccine is 100% effective in preventing the COVID-19 pandemic. Vaccination can make the disease milder so that the risk of infection, hospitalization, and death is lower in people who have been vaccinated compared to those who have not been vaccinated. This study aims to determine the relationship between COVID-19 vaccination and the severity of COVID-19 infection in patients treated at Arifin Achmad General Hospital, Riau Province, for the period August 2021 to August 2022. Methods: This study is an analytical observational research with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 403 research subjects were included in this study. Data analysis using Chi-square by looking for the relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variable. Ineligible bivariate data will be performed using the Fisher test with a p-value < 0.05 considered significant based on statistical tests. Results: The percentage of mild and moderate severity patients was generally the highest in the group who did not receive vaccination, with the percentage being 45.8%, followed by those who received booster (30.4%). Of the 54 cases of patients with severe-critical severity, 27 cases were dominated by patients who had no vaccination status at all, with a percentage of 50.0%. Subjects who did not receive vaccination had a 3.37 times higher chance of developing severe COVID-19 than those who were vaccinated (odds ratio = 3,37; 95% confidence interval [THERE] = 1,95-4,80). Conclusion: The relationship between COVID-19 vaccination and the severity of COVID-19 infection in patients treated at Arifin Achmad General Hospital, Riau Province, for the period August 2021 to August 2022.

Abstract

Background: Atypical pneumonia poses a significant threat to elderly individuals, often leading to severe complications and increased mortality. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate risk factors, treatment outcomes, and mortality associated with atypical pneumonia in elderly patients. Methods: A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases was conducted from January 2013 to December 2024. Studies reporting on atypical pneumonia in patients aged 65 years or older were included. Data on risk factors, treatment outcomes (clinical cure rate, radiological improvement, length of hospital stay), and mortality were extracted and pooled using random-effects models. Results: Six studies involving 1,875 elderly patients with atypical pneumonia were included. Advanced age (≥80 years), comorbidities (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, heart failure, diabetes mellitus), and delayed initiation of antibiotic therapy were identified as significant risk factors for severe disease and mortality. Treatment with macrolides was associated with a higher clinical cure rate (OR 2.15, 95% CI 1.52-3.04, p<0.001) and shorter hospital stay (mean difference -2.8 days, 95% CI -4.1 to -1.5, p<0.001) compared to fluoroquinolones. The pooled mortality rate was 12.8% (95% CI 9.5-16.1%). Conclusion: Atypical pneumonia in the elderly is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Early recognition of risk factors and prompt initiation of appropriate antibiotic therapy, particularly with macrolides, are crucial for improving outcomes in this vulnerable population.
