Abstract

 Background: Nutritional factors such as folate intake are important during pregnancy. Satisfying nutritional needs of pregnant mothers is necessary to avoid complications during pregnancy such as preterm labor, High infant mortality rate in Indonesia is still high. This study  aimed to study the relationship between folate intake during pregnancy and preterm labor.  Methods: This study used a cross-sectional analytic approach by using semi-quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire, as an instrument on mothers with 0−9 months old babies living in the villages of Sayang and Hegarmanah, Jatinangor, Sumedang, Indonesia. Results:  Ninety mothers participated in this study. The result indicated that 25.55% respondents had low folate intake and high incidence of preterm labor (16.67%). Significant association was found between folate intake during pregnancy and preterm labor (p=0.019). Maternal age was not a confounding factor in this study. Conclusions: There is an association between folate intake during pregnancy and preterm labor in mothers living in the villages of Sayang and Hegarmanah, Jatinangor, Sumedang, Indonesia.Keywords: Babies 0−9 months, folate, preterm laborDOI: 10.15850/amj.v2n1.431

Abstract

Trauma toraks merupakan penyebab signifikan dari morbiditas dan mortalitas, terutama dalam konteks multitrauma, dengan dampak kematian berkisar antara 20% hingga 25%. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui faktor prediktor terjadinya delayed hemothorax pada pasien dengan riwayat trauma tumpul toraks di RSUP Prof. Dr. R.D. Kandou Manado. Metode yang di guanakan metode penelitian dengan pendekatan kohort retrospektif, dengan cara consecutive sampling, analisis data dengan analisis deskriptif. Adapun hasil penelitian, ditemukan bahwa faktor prediktor yang signifikan adalah adanya fraktur tulang iga, jumlah fraktur iga 3 atau lebih, dan lokasi fraktur tulang iga. Usia dan kejadian kontusio paru tidak ditemukan sebagai faktor prediktor yang signifikan. Hasil penelitian juga menunjukkan bahwa pasien yang memiliki fraktur pada tulang iga ke 10-12, 6-9, dan 3-5 memiliki risiko lebih tinggi untuk mengalami delayed hemothorax.

Abstract

Constrictive-effusive pericarditis (ECP) is a rare syndrome but is gaining increasing attention in the classification of pericardial diseases. The aim of this research is to identify the differences in clinical symptoms between constrictive pericardial effusion and cardiac tamponade, such as chest pain, shortness of breath, blood pressure, heart rate, and other symptoms. We report the case of a 67-year-old man who had exertional dyspnea, lack of energy, fatigue, and pleuritic chest pain for the past 6 months. X-rays showed pericardial effusion and pericardial thickening with calcification indicating constrictive pericarditis. Echocardiographic examination also revealed similar findings. The patient then underwent pericardiectomy, during which the pericardial effusion was evacuated. However, after this procedure, cardiac contractions were still limited, underlying the constrictive process. This case illustrates the complexity in differentiating constrictive pericarditis from cardiac tamponade and the importance of accurate diagnosis in the management of this pericardial disease. In this case report, we discuss the clinical findings, diagnostic measures, and management implications in a patient with overt constrictive pericarditis.
