Abstract

Background: Cystatin-C acts as a neuroprotector in the central nervous system at normal levels, but high serum cystatin-C levels are associated with impaired cognitive function. Serum cystatin-C levels increase in impaired renal function, and cognitive impairment are comorbidities that can increase the morbidity and mortality of chronic kidney disease patients. This study aimed to assess the relationship between serum cystatin-C levels and cognitive function in chronic kidney disease patients. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design with 73 samples of non-hemodialysis chronic kidney disease patients. Cognitive function was assessed using the MoCa-Ina. Serum cystatin-C levels of all samples were measured by the ELISA method. Data analysis was carried out using SPSS. Results: Impaired cognitive function in CKD patients was found to be 76.7%. The median serum cystatin-C level of CKD patients with impaired cognitive function (n=56) was 1.015 mg/dL, and without cognitive impairment (n=17) was 0.929 mg/dL. There was no significant relationship between serum cystatin-C levels (cut-off point 0.98 mg/dL) and impaired cognitive function (OR : 2.05, 95% CI : 0.680-6.175, p= 0.198). Conclusion: There is no relationship between serum cystatin-C levels and cognitive function impairment in non-hemodialysis chronic kidney disease patients.

Abstract

Background: Dickkopf-related protein – 1 (DKK-1) is an antagonist protein to the Wingless (Wnt)-β catenin signal. Dysregulation of Wnt-β catenin signaling by DKK-1 causes disruption of neuronal synapses, which can result in impaired cognitive function. Impaired cognitive function in people with HIV or HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND) is a spectrum of cognitive disorders related to HIV neuroinvasion and neuroinflammation, which significantly results in impaired cognitive function and daily activity. This study aimed to assess the relationship between plasma DKK-1 levels and impaired cognitive function in HIV patients. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design, consisting of 84 HIV sufferers who went to the voluntary counseling and testing (VCT) polyclinic at Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital, Padang, Indonesia, in the period December 2022 - March 2023, who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Cognitive function was assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Indonesian version (MoCa-Ina), and daily activity function using the instrumental activity of daily living (IADL) examination. Plasma DKK-1 levels were measured using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. Results: The mean plasma DKK-1 level of HIV sufferers was 358.4 (+ 157.6) pg/mL. ANI type disorder was found in 78.6%, MND in 21.4%, and no HAD type. There was a significant relationship between plasma DKK-1 levels and impaired cognitive function in HIV patients (OR = 2.82, CI95% = 1.128-7.043, p = 0.025), but there was no significant difference in plasma DKK-1 levels between types of cognitive impairment ANI and MND (p = 0.858). Conclusion: Plasma DKK-1 levels are significantly associated with impaired cognitive function in HIV patients.

Abstract

Latar Belakang: Cedera otak traumatis (TBI) adalah penyebab utama kematian, terutama disebabkan oleh jatuh, kekerasan, dan kecelakaan lalu lintas. Dalam kasus kekerasan dan kecelakaan lalu lintas, polisi seringkali meminta visum et repertum, sebuah laporan tertulis yang menjelaskan luka korban dan diklasifikasikan menjadi tiga derajat luka. Namun, pemeriksaan ini kadang-kadang tidak akurat karena hanya melibatkan luka fisik yang terlihat. Oleh karena itu, pemeriksaan lebih lanjut diperlukan, seperti pemeriksaan biomarker, seperti neuron specific enolase (NSE) Objektif: Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui perbedaan kadar NSE berdasarkan derajat perlukaan pada korban trauma kepala. Metode: Ini adalah studi potong-lintang, dimana kadar NSE dinilai dengan Teknik ELISA, pada kunjungan korban trauma kepala di IGD. Derajat perlukaan diperoleh melalui catatan visum et repertum korban yang disimpan di bagian forensik dan medikolegal. Analisis bivariat dilakukan untuk mengetahui perbedaan kadar NSE berdasarkan derajat perlukaan. Hasil: Sebagian besar subjek penelitian adalah laki-laki (76,2%) dengan kelompok usia terbanyak di umur 12-45 tahun. Kadar NSE pada korban trauma kepala dengan derajat tiga lebih tinggi daripada korban trauma kepala dengan derajat dua. Tidak terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan kadar NSE pada korban trauma kepala dengan derajat dua atau tiga (p=0.642). Kesimpulan: Tidak ada perbedaan yang signifikan pada kadar NSE berdasarkan derajat perlukaan.

Abstract

Background: Disturbance sleep quality is often found in sufferers of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Disturbed sleep quality can affect immunity, which ultimately can increase patient morbidity and mortality. Impaired sleep quality in HIV sufferers is related to neurotoxicity due to the HIV virus, which damages sleep architecture. HIV infection can cause an increase in brain extracellular glutamate. Elevated glutamate plays a role in neuronal and glial damage and death. This study aimed to assess the relationship between plasma glutamate levels and sleep quality in HIV sufferers. Methods: The research uses a cross-sectional design. The samples were HIV sufferers in a polyclinic voluntary counseling test (VCT) internal medicine of Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital Padang, who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Samples are selected by consecutive methods. Sleep quality was assessed using a questionnaire called the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI). Plasma glutamate levels were measured using the ELISA method. Statistical analysis using SPSS with a p-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The research sample consisted of 82 people. The median plasma glutamate level was 16.39 µg/mL. Impaired sleep quality was found in 45 (54.9%) HIV sufferers. There was no significant relationship between plasma glutamate levels (p= 0.506), age (p=0.795), gender (p=0.547), education (p=0.358), occupation (p=0.255), disease duration (p=0.348), stage (p=0.309) and type of ARV therapy (p=0.791) with sleep quality in HIV sufferers. From this research, a significant relationship was found between sleep quality, body mass index (BMI) (p= 0.015), and marital status (p= 0.039). Conclusion: There is no relationship between plasma glutamate levels and sleep quality in HIV sufferers. There are other factors that influence sleep quality, namely BMI and marital status.

Abstract

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (Type 2 DM) is a metabolic disease that causes a global crisis that threatens health and the world economy. Impaired cognitive function is a key factor in reducing health-related quality of life in type 2 DM patients. Phosphorylated Tau (p-Tau) is a microtubule protein that functions in cell signaling, synaptic plasticity, and regulation of genome stability. A malfunction of p-Tau will cause disruption of cell signaling, which can result in impaired cognitive function. This study aims to assess the relationship between serum p-Tau levels and impaired cognitive function in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Methods: This research is an observational study, comparative analysis with a cross-sectional design with a sample of 60 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients who sought treatment at the endocrine polyclinic at Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital Padang. Cognitive function was assessed using MoCa-Ina. Serum p-Tau levels were measured using the ELISA method. Data analysis was carried out using SPSS. Results: The average serum p-Tau level in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with impaired cognitive function was 542.9 pg/ml. The cut-off point for serum p-Tau levels which is associated with impaired cognitive function in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients is 517.2 pg/ml. There was a significant relationship between serum p-Tau levels and impaired cognitive function in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients (p=0.039). Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between serum p-Tau levels and impaired cognitive function in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.

Abstract

Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a global health problem that can cause death and disability in people of productive age. The diagnosis and assessment of TBI severity currently still rely on clinical examination and neuroimaging. However, limited access and cost of neuroimaging are obstacles in many health facilities. Therefore, blood-based biomarkers are needed that can help the diagnosis and prognosis of TBI. Phosphorylated Tau (p-tau) is a potential biomarker that can be measured in serum. This study aims to assess the relationship between serum p-tau levels and severity and outcome in TBI patients. Methods: This research is a comparative study with a cross-sectional design involving 70 TBI patients who came to the emergency room (ER) of Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital Padang. TBI severity was assessed using the Glasgow coma scale (GCS) and grouped into mild (GCS 13-15) and moderate to severe (GCS 3-12). Outcomes were assessed using the Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) and grouped into good (GOS 4-5) and poor (GOS 1-3). Serum p-tau levels were measured using the ELISA method. Data analysis was carried out using SPSS. Results: The median serum p-tau level in the mild TBI group was 165.84 ng/L (IQR 126.18-463.85), while in the moderate to severe TBI group, it was 177.68 ng/L (IQR 87.62-591 .93). There was a significant difference between serum p-tau levels in the mild and moderate to severe TBI groups (p=0.029). The median serum p-tau level in the good outcome group was 167.21 ng/L (IQR 87.62-463.85), while in the poor outcome group it was 187.04 ng/L (IQR 137.75-591.93). There was a significant difference between serum p-tau levels in the good and bad outcome groups (p=0.014). Conclusion: Serum p-tau levels have a significant relationship with severity and outcome in TBI patients. Elevated serum p-tau levels are associated with increased severity of TBI and poor outcomes. Further research is needed to confirm these findings and explore the potential of p-tau as a biomarker in TBI management.

Abstract

Executive function is a crucial cognitive domain that can be adversely affected by various toxic substances, including the uremic toxin indoxyl sulfate. Although it's known that indoxyl sulfate has harmful effects on intra or extra-kidney organs, its impact on executive function remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate indoxyl sulfate levels in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing hemodialysis and to understand its correlation with executive function impairments. This observational cross-sectional study was conducted at the Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital Padang Hemodialysis Unit from March to July 2022; 60 patients undergoing hemodialysis and 20 healthy controls participated. Executive function was assessed using the Trail Making Test B (TMT-B). Indoxyl sulfate levels were quantified using an ELISA assay with the Assay Genie kit. The Mann-Whitney test set statistical significance at a p<0.05. The average age of the subjects was 51.4±11.4 years, with 53% being male. The mean indoxyl sulfate levels were considerably higher in the CKD group (118.79 ng/ml, range: 11–1,709 ng/ml) compared to the control group (6.028±1.829 ng/ml), with a significant difference (p<0.001). Impaired executive function was observed in 75% of the CKD patients. The average indoxyl sulfate level was 165.12 ng/ml (range: 29–1,709 ng/mL) in the impaired executive function group and 71.22 ng/ml (range: 11–333 ng/mL) in the group with normal executive function, indicating a significant difference (p=0.013). Patients with CKD undergoing hemodialysis exhibit elevated serum indoxyl sulfate levels compared to healthy individuals. Moreover, CKD patients with impaired executive function have notably higher indoxyl sulfate levels than those with normal executive function. Further research is needed to elucidate the mechanistic links between indoxyl sulfate and cognitive impairments.
