Abstract

This study aims to determine the domicile distribution, find out the high-risk areas, and determine the risk of drug-resistant tuberculosis patients based on patient location in 15 districts of Makassar City from Tuberculosis register data of South Sulawesi Provincial Health Office in December 2017 – April 2019 period. Gen Xpert rapid or drug sensitivity examinations were used to define drug-resistant tuberculosis. The domicile location of patients was geocoded by maps in Google Earth and aggregated per area by using Kernel Density analysis using ArcView GIS 10.3 software. We found that drug-resistant tuberculosis cases tended to be clustered in the western part of Makassar City, an area with a fairly high population density. There were areas with the highest concentration of predicted cases as a high risk of transmission of drug-resistant TB, around the Bontoala District, Makassar District, and Mamajang District. Healthcare facilities located in hot spots area need to be equipped with molecular rapid test facilities and conduct drug sensitivity tests for all suspected tuberculosis patients. Further research needs to be carried out to determine the distribution of tuberculosis patients who are sensitive and resistant to drugs.

Abstract

The Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) questionnaire and Dry Eye Questionnare-5 (DEQ-5) are widely used to evaluate subjective symptoms of dry eye disease (DED) as a primary diagnostic criterion. This study aims to compare the validity, reliability, and accuracy of the Indonesian version of OSDI and DEQ-5 questionnaires. Hospital-based cross-sectional study. A total of 100 participants were enrolled in the study. The Indonesian version of the OSDI and DEQ-5 questionnaires were analyzed to evaluate the validity and reliability of both questionnaires. Then, the accuracy of both questionnaires was compared with the diagnostic test and the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) analysis. All the question items on both questionnaires are valid and reliable. The validity test using Pearson’s product-moment correlation coefficient, the value exceeds 0.23 (P<0.01) and the reliability test using Cronbach’s alpha coefficient test showed good and excellent internal consistency for OSDI and DEQ-5 (Cronbach’s alpha of OSDI 0.78 and DEQ-5 0.81). The accuracy of both questionnaires was good and there was no significant difference with AUC OSDI=0.78 and AUC DEQ-5=0.79. The Indonesian version of OSDI and DEQ-5 questionnaires met the validity and reliability requirements so that they were declared valid and reliable as effective instruments for DED assessment in the Indonesian population.
