Abstract

Drug allergy is an adverse drug reaction that occurs through an immune reaction that occurs through IgE or a rapid hypersensitivity reaction with various mechanisms and clinical presentations. One of the therapeutic modalities for drug allergies is corticosteroids. In allergic processes, corticosteroids can suppress the production and effects of humoral factors involved in the inflammatory response, inhibit the migration of leukocytes to sites of inflammation, and interfere with the function of endothelial cells, granulocytes, mast cells, and fibroblasts. This literature review aimed to describe the role of corticosteroids in the management of drug allergies. Corticosteroids are used very widely in the treatment of various allergic diseases because of their strong anti-inflammatory properties. Corticosteroids inhibit the synthesis of a number of cytokines, such as the interleukins IL-1 to IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). In conclusion, corticosteroids are one of the therapeutic modalities in various manifestations of drug allergies. Every drug allergy gets the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids with different choices, routes, and doses for each manifestation.

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

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) adalah penyakit virus yang sangat menular yang disebabkan oleh severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Pasien lanjut usia dengan infeksi COVID-19, terutama pada kasus yang lebih parah, memiliki risiko dalam keadaan hiperkoagulasi serta meningkatkan kejadian trombosis. Mekanisme genetik dan mekanisme endokrin, memengaruhi mekanisme koagulopati dan trombosis pada COVID-19. D-dimer yang tinggi pada pasien COVID-19 disebabkan oleh hiperinflamasi yang kemudian menyebabkan koagulopati. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbedaan rerata kadar D-dimer dengan usia dan jenis kelamin pada pasien COVID-19 yang dirawat di RSUP. Dr. M. Djamil Padang. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian analitik observasional dengan pendekatan cross- sectional menggunakan data rekam medis 107 pasien COVID- 19 yang dirawat di RSUP. Dr. M. Djamil Padang tahun 2021. Teknik pengambilan sampel adalah consecutive sampling. Analisis yang digunakan adalah analisis univariat dan bivariat. Kelompok usia terbanyak pada pasien COVID-19 yang dirawat adalah kelompok usia 46-65 tahun, jenis kelamin terbanyak adalah perempuan dan rerata kadar D-dimer adalah 2632,6 ng/ml. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan terdapat perbedaan yang bermakna antara rerata kadar D-dimer pada kelompok usia yang berbeda pada pasien COVID-19 (p=0,02). Tidak ada perbedaan yang bermakna rerata kadar D-dimer antara laki-laki dan perempuan pada pasien COVID-19 (p=0,413). Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah terdapat perbedaan yang bermakna antara rerata kadar D-dimer pada kelompok usia yang berbeda pada pasien COVID- 19 dan tidak ada perbedaan yang bermakna rerata kadar D-dimer antara laki-laki dan perempuan pada pasien COVID-19.

Abstract

   Background: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by SARS- CoV-2 virus. The outcomes of COVID-19 patients were found to be influenced by the presence of comorbidities of the patient. Furthermore, this will affect the healing process in the patient itself. The most common comorbidity in COVID-19 patients is hypertension followed by diabetes mellitus. Hypertension is mentioned as the predominant factor of COVID-19 infection. Objective: This study aims to determine the profile of COVID-19 patients with hypertension. Methods: The type of this research is observational descriptive which was conducted in October 2021 – November 2022 at the Medical Record Installation of Rumah Sakit Universitas Andalas. This study was conducted using a total sampling technique with a total sample of 161 patient. Results: The results showed that the frequency of female was more than male (60.9:39.1). The frequency of >50 years old is almost the same as 50 years old (50.9:49.1). There are more patients without comorbid hypertension than patients with comorbid hypertension (64.6:35.4). Conclusions: There are more COVID-19 patients treated at Andalas University Hospital aged 50 years with female sex and more patients without hypertension comorbid.

Abstract

Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in acutely ill medical patients. Both unfractionated heparin (UFH) and low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) are effective for VTE prophylaxis, but their relative efficacy and safety remain unclear. Methods: We conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing UFH and LMWH for VTE prophylaxis in acutely ill medical patients. We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials from 2013 to 2024. The primary outcome was the incidence of VTE. Secondary outcomes included major bleeding and mortality. Results: Seven RCTs with a total of 5,412 patients were included. LMWH was associated with a significantly lower risk of VTE compared to UFH (relative risk [RR] 0.68; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.52-0.88; p = 0.004). There was no significant difference in major bleeding (RR 0.91; 95% CI 0.65-1.27; p = 0.58) or mortality (RR 0.93; 95% CI 0.78-1.11; p = 0.43) between the two groups. Conclusion: LMWH is more effective than UFH for VTE prophylaxis in acutely ill medical patients without increasing the risk of major bleeding or mortality. LMWH should be considered the preferred agent for VTE prophylaxis in this population.
