Abstract

Hyperthyroidism is a condition with excess biosynthesis and hormone secretion by the thyroid gland. One of the secondary causes of hyperthyroidism is hydatidiform mole pregnancy, which is included in Gestational Trophoblastic Disease (GTD). Hyperthyroidism in hydatidiform mole pregnancies occurs due to increased beta-Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (beta-hCG).  Increasing beta-hCG level affects stimulation of the thyroid gland, increasing thyroid hormone levels in the serum, which causes thyrotoxicosis. This case is such a rare case. A 22-years-old female, G1P0A0, came complaining of amenorrhea accompanied by vaginal bleeding with abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and palpitations.accompanied by vaginal bleeding with abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and palpitations. Physical examination showed tachycardia with a pulse rate of 120 beats per minute. Ultrasound examination of the abdomen showed an anteflexed uterus with a honeycomb appearance. Based on a series of tests, the patient has a hydatidiform mole pregnancy with a risk of impending thyroid storm, indicated by TSH suppression with increased fT4. Beta-hCG can cause hyperthyroidism through cross-reaction with TSH receptors. In patients with hyperthyroidism due to GTD, it is not characterized by the characteristic features often found in Graves' disease. Evacuation with curettage and medication was performed to reduce thyroid hormone and serum beta-hCG levels. Hyperthyroidism is an abnormality that can be found in hydatidiform mole pregnancies. It is important to carry out early detection by examining thyroid function in GTD, proper management, and regular monitoring of thyroid function and beta-hCG in pregnant female to provide comprehensive management and prevent complications that can be caused by hyperthyroidism.

Abstract

Examination of other blood groups' antigens, such as Rhesus (d, C, c, E, e), Kell, Duffy, Kidd, and others, is not routinely carried out in blood services. This study aimed to determine the type of blood group antigen and the composition of the antigens of panel cell reagents for antibody screening and identification in Bali. The subjects were 120 voluntary donors who regularly donate blood. Blood group antigen examination was carried out with a column agglutination test. The antigen mapping was analyzed to determine the possible development of panel cell reagents. Among 120 research subjects, 76.67% were male. Rhesus antigen mapping showed 73.3% DCe phenotype, 3.33% DcE, 3.33% Dce, 19.17% DCE. MNS system, 22.5% M-N+, 35.83% M+N+, 85% S-s+, 14.17% S+s+ and 0.83% S+s-. For the Kell system, no donor with phenotype K+k-, 5.83% K+k+, 94.17% K-k+. No donor with Kpa antigen and 100% with Kpb antigen. Based on Duffy system, 74.17% Fy (a+b), 23.33% Fy(a+b+), 1.7% Fy(a-b+), 0.8% Fy(a-b-). For Kidd system 36.67% Jk(a+b-), 45.83% Jk(a+b+), 17.5% (Jk(a-b+) and no donor with Jk(a-b-). The screening analysis of donor antigens allows the development of panel cell reagents using two types of panel cells. Most donors have a Rhesus DCe phenotype with other dominant antigens, M+N+, S-s+, K-k+, Kpb, Fy(a+b-), and Jk(a+b+). The development of panel cell reagents can be done with the antigen composition of R1R1 (D, C, e, M, S, k, Kpb, Fya, Jka) and R2R2 (D, c, E, M, N, s, K,k, Kpb, Fya, Fyb, Jka, Jkb).

Abstract

Severe malaria, primarily caused by Plasmodium falciparum, is a life-threatening medical emergency. Its diagnosis can be significantly complicated by mixed-species infections, where the presence of a less virulent Plasmodium species may mask the true etiological agent of the severe disease, leading to potential delays in appropriate therapy. This report details a case of cerebral malaria where such a diagnostic challenge occurred. An 18-year-old male with a recent travel history to a malaria-endemic area in Indonesia presented with a one-day history of decreased consciousness (Glasgow Coma Scale score of 9) following a week-long febrile illness. The clinical presentation met the World Health Organization's criteria for severe malaria, specifically cerebral malaria. Initial microscopic examination of a peripheral blood smear exclusively identified Plasmodium malariae. However, a concurrently performed rapid diagnostic test (RDT) was positive for both the pan-malarial antigen and the P. falciparum-specific histidine-rich protein 2 (HRP-2) antigen. This critical discordance prompted treatment for severe falciparum malaria with intravenous artesunate and triggered an expert re-evaluation of the blood smears. Subsequent analysis confirmed a co-infection with both P. falciparum and P. malariae. The patient showed significant clinical improvement within three days of initiating appropriate therapy. In conclusion, this case underscores the peril of diagnostic anchoring in severe malaria. Clinical severity must supersede laboratory findings that are incongruent with the patient's condition. The presence of a Plasmodium species other than falciparum on an initial smear does not rule it out as the cause of a severe syndrome. Discordant results between microscopy and RDTs are a critical red flag for mixed infections and mandate immediate, expert parasitological re-evaluation to ensure timely, life-saving treatment.

Abstract

Pseudo-thrombocytopenia is a pre-analytical issue commonly observed in clinical laboratory settings due to platelet aggregation or clumps. In cases of thrombocytopenia, it is essential to conduct a platelet count via Peripheral Blood Smear (PBS) to identify clumping and subsequently re-evaluate the platelet count. The examination of platelets can now be carried out through different methodologies offered by Hematology Analyzers, such as PLT-I, PLT-O, and PLT-F. The primary objective of this research was to evaluate the correlation and agreement of platelet count findings (PLT-I, PLT-O, and PLT-F) in samples displaying flagged platelet clumps between a Hematology Analyzer and PBS at Prof. dr. I.G.N.G. Ngoerah General Hospital, Bali. An analytical cross-sectional observational study was conducted on 71 samples of thrombocytopenia with platelet clump flagging on the Sysmex® XN-1000 Series Hematology Analyzer at Prof. dr. I. G. N. G. Ngoerah Hospital. SPSS version 26.0 and MedCalc were used to conduct statistical analysis. There was a significant difference in the PLT clump Fluorescence index (p = 0.001) between the sample groups with and without the clump, and there was a strong positive correlation of the PLT count results between the Hematology Analyzer (p <0.001) and PBS in the sample groups with and without the clump. The Bland-Altman mean bias was lowest in the sample group without clumps against PLT-I (0.39x103/ml; 95% LOA: -57.05-57.83) and highest in the sample group with a clump to PLT-F (105.38x103/ml; 95% LOA: -14.7-225.46). There is a strong positive correlation and concordance of platelet count results between the Hematology Analyzer and PBS. However, there is no concordance between the platelet count results from the Hematology Analyzer and PBS in the clump group.

Abstract

Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a common microvascular complication of diabetes mellitus and a leading cause of vision loss. Persistent hyperglycemia plays a central role in the pathogenesis of DR by promoting chronic inflammation. Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 (MCP-1), a key pro-inflammatory chemokine, is believed to mediate this process. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between glycemic control, as reflected by glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, and serum MCP-1 concentrations in patients with DR. A cross-sectional analysis was conducted involving 45 DR patients at Prof. dr. I. G. N. G. Ngoerah General Hospital. HbA1c levels were assessed enzymatically and reported in NGSP units, while serum MCP-1 concentrations were measured through ELISA and expressed in pg/mL. The correlation between the two parameters was evaluated using Spearman's rank correlation test, with significance determined at p <0.05.The participants consisted of 64.4% males and 35.6% females, with a mean age of 55.0±6.6 years. The median HbA1c was 9.5% (range: 5.9–12.3%), and the median MCP-1 level was 320.57 pg/mL (range: 32.34–605.41 pg/mL). A moderate positive correlation was identified between HbA1c and MCP-1 levels r = 0.45; p = 0.007). These findings indicate that increased blood glucose levels may coincide with elevated MCP-1, suggesting an ongoing inflammatory response contributing to DR progression. This study demonstrates a significant moderate positive correlation between HbA1c and serum MCP-1 in DR patients, suggesting that elevated blood glucose levels may contribute to increased MCP-1 expression. These findings support the potential role of MCP-1 as a biomarker of both poor glycemic regulation and inflammation in the progression of diabetic retinopathy.
