Abstract

Background: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection can lead to a myriad of ocular complications, including panuveitis, an inflammatory condition affecting the entire uvea and surrounding structures. The management of panuveitis in HIV patients is complex, often requiring a multidisciplinary approach to address both the underlying immunodeficiency and the ocular inflammation. Case presentation: We present the case of a 37-year-old male patient with clinical stage III HIV who presented with panuveitis in the right eye (OD) secondary to herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO). The patient also had post-herpetic neuralgia, oral candidiasis, and malnutrition. He reported a history of unprotected sexual encounters with multiple partners. The patient's CD4 count was critically low at 15 cells/µL, indicating severe immunosuppression. He was initiated on antiretroviral therapy (ART), prophylactic medications to prevent opportunistic infections, and pain management for post-herpetic neuralgia. Conclusion: This case highlights the challenges in managing panuveitis and associated complications in patients with advanced HIV infection. Early diagnosis, prompt initiation of ART, and a multidisciplinary approach are crucial for successful management and improving patient outcomes.

Abstract

HIV/AIDS has been a global health issue for many years. This chronic condition affects multiple aspects of life and acts as a significant stressor that reduces patients’ quality of life. People living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) often face limitations in daily activities, making it difficult to accept their identity and life circumstances. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between self-acceptance and quality of life among HIV/AIDS patients at the VCT Clinic of Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital in 2023. An analytical cross-sectional design was used with purposive sampling, involving 84 participants. Data collection took place from November 2022 to November 2023 using the USAQ and WHOQOL HIV-BREF questionnaires. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation tests. Results showed a positive and significant correlation between self-acceptance and quality of life (p = 0.034; r = 0.231). Significant relationships were also found with the physical (p = 0.012; r = 0.272) and psychological (p = 0.014; r = 0.269) domains. In conclusion, self-acceptance is positively associated with overall quality of life, particularly in physical and psychological aspects, among HIV/AIDS patients.

Abstract

Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction due to dysregulation of the body's immune response to infection. The Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score (SOFA score) is a diagnostic tool used to quantitatively and objectively assess the level of organ dysfunction. Sepsis as a stressor of systemic inflammation, causes an increase in cortisol secretion by the adrenals to target tissues, which suppresses inflammation. Objective: To determine the correlation between SOFA score and blood cortisol levels in sepsis patients at RSUP Dr. M. Djamil Padang. Method: Observational analytic study with a cross-sectional method. The sample consisted of 55 patients who had been diagnosed with sepsis. The data used was secondary data from medical records. The data were tested using the Spearman correlation test. Result: A correlation was found between the SOFA score and blood cortisol levels, yielding a correlation coefficient of r = 0.338 and a p-value of 0.012. Conclusion: There is a significant moderate correlation between SOFA scores and blood cortisol levels. Keywords:  blood cortisol, sepsis, SOFA score

Abstract

Hypovolemic shock due to acute hemorrhage is a life-threatening condition, particularly in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Although recent studies have established protocols for managing hypovolemic shock in trauma and sepsis, the role of chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia in exacerbating post-procedural bleeding risks remains underexplored. This case emphasizes the clinical complexity of managing hemorrhagic shock in advanced-stage cervical cancer patients following percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN). Case Presentation: A 52-year-old female with stage IVB cervical cancer and liver metastasis presented with hypovolemic shock following PCN. She exhibited severe hematuria and chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia, leading to prolonged bleeding and subsequent shock. Initial management involved aggressive fluid resuscitation, blood transfusions, and correction of thrombocytopenia. Despite the challenges of managing shock in a patient with concurrent chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage IV, prompt intervention led to significant clinical improvement, stabilization of vital signs, and eventual discharge. Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of early intervention in managing hypovolemic shock in oncology patients with multiple comorbidities, including chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia and CKD. A multidisciplinary approach and close monitoring are crucial for improving outcomes in such high-risk patients. Further research is needed to establish tailored management protocols for this patient population.

Abstract

Comparison of SOFA scores in septic patients with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction.  A dysregulated host response to infection causes it. Organ dysfunction can be represented by an increase in the SOFA score of > 2 points. Every increase in the score reflects worsening of organ dysfunction. Type-2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most common comorbidities in sepsis patients. T2DM patients have chronic hyperglycemia. This condition can impair immune function and damage the endothelium.  Objective: To find out the comparison of SOFA scores in sepsis patients with and without T2DM. Methods: This research was an analytical, cross-sectional study using medical record data from RSUP Dr. M. Djamil Padang. The 132 samples comprised 66 sepsis patients with T2DM and 66 without T2DM. Sampling was carried out by using a stratified random sampling technique. Bivariate data analysis used an independent-samples t-tes. The mean of SOFA scores in sepsis patients with T2DM was 8.05 +_ 2.36 and the mean of SOFA scores in sepsis patients 6.38 +_ 2.96. The p-value (<0,05) in both groups was 0.001. Conclusion: There is a significant difference in SOFA scores between sepsis patients with and without T2DM. Keywords: sepsis, SOFA score, T2DM

Abstract

Sepsis is a severe condition caused by an improper immune response during infections. Early diagnosis is challenging due to the low specificity and effectiveness of current diagnostic tools. Procalcitonin is a biomarker with both advantages and limitations. Presepsin has emerged as a potential alternative, offering cost-effectiveness, fewer confounding factors, and a quicker response. This study evaluates the diagnostic capabilities of presepsin and procalcitonin in bacterial sepsis. The study involved patients with sepsis who were treated in the Internal Medicine Department at M. Djamil Hospital, Padang, Indonesia. All participants were adults over 18, excluding those with conditions that could affect the biomarkers. A total of 63 patients were assessed. The mean presepsin level in bacterial sepsis was 205.91 pg/mL (±162.65 SD), while procalcitonin averaged 62.83 ng/mL (±80.48 SD). Blood cultures revealed bacterial infections in 18 patients (28.60%). Among them, eight had Gram-positive (44.40%) and ten had Gram-negative bacteria (55.60%). Presepsin demonstrated variable accuracy in identifying bacterial sepsis and bacteremia. The Area Under the Curve (AUC) for bacterial sepsis was 0.60 (95% CI 0.44-0.75), for Gram-positive bacteremia it was 0.63 (95% CI 0.35-0.90), and for Gram-negative bacteremia it was 0.37 (95% CI 0.10-0.65). In contrast, procalcitonin showed an AUC of 0.51 (95% CI 0.35-0.67) for bacterial sepsis, 0.22 (95% CI 0.01-0.46) for Gram-positive bacteremia, and 0.78 (95% CI 0.54-1.00) for Gram-negative bacteremia. Presepsin has a higher diagnostic value than procalcitonin in detecting bacterial sepsis. Procalcitonin has the highest AUC value in all categories for detecting Gram-negative bacteremia.

Abstract

Background: Klebsiella pneumoniae is a common pathogen causing sepsis and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. The emergence of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), particularly extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing K. pneumoniae (ESBL-KP) and carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniae (CRKP), has limited antimicrobial therapy options and may worsen clinical outcomes such as mortality and length of hospital stay (LOS). Objective: This study aims to compare the clinical characteristics and outcomes of sepsis caused by multidrug-resistant K. pneumoniae and non-resistant strains, focusing on mortality and LOS.Methods: An observational analytical study with a cohort design was conducted at Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital in Padang from October 2024 to January 2025. Subjects diagnosed with sepsis due to pneumonia and confirmed positive for K. pneumoniae through blood or respiratory cultures were included using consecutive sampling. Isolates were categorized into MDR (ESBL-KP and CRKP) and non-MDR. Clinical data were analyzed descriptively to described subject characteristics, while bivariate analysis (chi-square and independent t-test) evaluated associations between resistance profiles and outcomes, focusing on mortality and LOS (p < 0.05). Results: Of the 70 subjects, 39 (55.7%) had confirmed infection with MDR strains and 31 (44.3%) with non-MDR.Mortality was highest in the CRKP (56.5%), followed by non-MDR (38.7%) and ESBL-KP (25.0%). Statistical analysis revealed a notable association between the resistance profiles of K. pneumoniae and mortality (p < 0.001 for both CRKP and ESBL-KP vs non-MDR). However, there were no statistically significant differences in mean hospital LOS across the groups (CRKP: 16.30 ± 9.81 days; ESBL-KP: 13.63 ± 9.77 days; non-MDR: 16.06 ± 9.49 days; all p > 0.05). Conclusion: Sepsis caused by multidrug-resistant K. pneumoniae, including both ESBL and CRKP, is significantly associated with increased mortality. Early identification and appropriate antimicrobial management are essential to improve subject outcomes.
