Abstract

Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is defined as a condition of glucose intolerance that is found during pregnancy. In pregnant women, urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common bacterial infections that can be found. The infection can be worsened by diabetes as it was shown that the risk of UTI in pregnant women with diabetes (27.6%) is higher than those without diabetes (3%-10.1%). This study aimed to present a case of gestational diabetes mellitus and urinary tract infection. Case presentation: A pregnant woman aged 38 years old with a 15-16 weeks gestational age was admitted with gestational diabetes mellitus and urinary tract infection. The patient was treated with an intravenous insulin drip and antibiotic. The patient was discharged after there was a clinical improvement. Conclusion: There are many risk factors that can contribute to the development of UTI in pregnant women, with one of those being inadequate glycemic control. The treatment of UTI in pregnant women with GDM is generally the same as in those without GDM.

Abstract

Background: Evans syndrome (ES) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the presence of autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) and idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), together with unknown causes. ES disease is the least common, diagnosed in only 0.8% - 3.7% of all patients with AIHA or ITP. This study aimed to describe Evans syndrome in a 44-year-old male patient. Case presentation: A 44-year-old male patient was reported with complaints of weakness and fatigue, red spots, a history of bleeding gums, a history of bleeding from the nose, and a history of red urination. A routine blood examination revealed mild anemia, reticulocytosis, and thrombocytopenia, and the peripheral blood showed polychromatic erythrocytes. Other laboratory examinations revealed an increase in LDH. The results of a positive Comb’s test and antibody screening examination showed the impression of warm-type AIHA. The diagnosis of Evans syndrome in this patient was confirmed by the presence of AIHA and ITP, which co-occur and are primarily due to unknown causes. Conclusion: ES is a rare disorder and a diagnosis of exclusion. The diagnosis of ES was established by the presence of signs and symptoms of AIHA and ITP accompanied by a positive direct antiglobulin test with no other etiology found.

Abstract

Background: Since December 2019, a novel coronavirus called SARSCoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus) has caused an international outbreak of respiratory illness described as COVID-19. This study aimed to describe the difference in the survival rate of COVID-19 induced AKI with hemodialysis and COVID-19 in patients with CKD on hemodialysis in Dr. M Djamil General Hospitals. Also, in this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of data on the factors that may be affected by COVID-19 survival rates in patients with COVID-19 induced AKI with hemodialysis and COVID-19 in patients with CKD on hemodialysis. This study was conducted to analyze the survival of COVID-19 with initiated or regular HD patients in Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital, Padang, Indonesia. Methods: This study was conducted from January 2021 to July 2021 in Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital, Padang, West Sumatera, Indonesia. Data for this study was collected through medical records of patients admitted for COVID-19 with CKD in hemodialysis and acute renal failure induced by COVID-19 to show the demographics, comorbidities, and survival rates of the patients who underwent hemodialysis. Results: Factors associated with survival in COVID-19 with hemodialysis were COVID-19 severity and abnormal potassium serum level (Table 3). Moderate COVID-19 patients tend to survive than severe COVID-19 patients (OR 60; 95% CI 16.034 – 224.525). There was no significant difference in survival between initiated and regular HD (p = 0.829). Conclusion: There is no difference in clinical outcome from patients with COVID-19 who initiated hemodialysis or regularly HD to the survival rates.
