Abstract

Background: The immune response of thalassemia patients is different from usual; therefore, thalassemia patients are susceptible to infection. A study at Thalassemia Center in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital showed that all thalassemia patients experience zinc deficiency. The decreased cellular immune response is associated with zinc deficiency, whereas splenectomy exacerbates the condition. This study aims to evaluate the improvement of cellular immune response in splenectomized thalassemia major patients after zinc supplementation. Method: Randomized double-blinded controlled trial was conducted on splenectomized thalassemia major patients in 12 weeks period. The inclusion criteria were aged > 12 years and had negative HIV test results. The subject receiving corticosteroids were excluded. Fifty-six subjects were randomly divided into two groups, the zinc group and the placebo group. Between 2 groups, data on zinc serum, T lymphocyte count, CD4+ T lymphocyte count, CD8+ T lymphocyte count, and CD4+/CD8+ ratio were evaluated at the beginning and the end of the study and were analyzed with unpaired t-test, Mann Whitney test, and Wilcoxon Signed Rank test. Result: After zinc supplementation, only 18 of 28 subjects in the zinc group recovered normal zinc serum levels. There were no significant changes after zinc supplementation in all parameters of cellular immune response (p > 0.05) between the two groups. This might be due to the subjects' adherence, which was lower in the zinc group (75.82%) than in the placebo group (83.19%). Conclusion: The effect of zinc supplementation on cellular immune response in splenectomized thalassemia major patients had not been proven yet.

Abstract

Background The COVID-19 pandemic necessitated the use of online schooling in order to comply with national and local lockdown guidelines. Online learning required students and teachers to adapt to a new method of schooling. The inability of adolescents to adapt to their environment can interfere with their psychosocial condition and become a risk factor for functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGID). Objective To determine the prevalence of FGID in adolescents and evaluate possible risk factors that existed during online learning. Methods This cross-sectional study was done in children aged 12-18 years who participated in online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. The diagnosis of FGID was based on Rome IV criteria. Psychosocial problems were assessed using the Pediatric Symptom Checklist Questionnaire–17 (PSC-17) which includes internalization, externalization, and attention subscales. Subjects with a PSC-17 mixed subscale total score of >15 were considered as having an increased likelihood of having a behavioral health disorder. Data were collected by online questionnaires via Google Forms. Results Of 1,413 participants, 23% experienced FGID; of these, 32.6% had >2 FGID diagnostic criteria. Upon multivariate analysis, internalization psychosocial problems were the most common risk factors for FGID, followed by mixed subscale psychosocial problems, unstable internet connection, and not understanding of the material. ConclusionThe prevalence of FGID in adolescents in this study is 23%. Environmental and psychosocial conditions are interrelated as risk factors for FGID in adolescents during online learning in the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract

Background Copy Number Alterations (CNAs) are changes in DNA structure that lead to gain or loss of copies of DNA sections in the genome. They correlate with unfavorable prognostic outcomes in pediatric leukemia, influencing treatment resistance, relapse rates, and overall survival. Identifying high-risk patients with a likelihood of CNA positivity is essential for understanding its association with clinical characteristics and laboratory findings. Since routine CNA testing is costly, recognizing simple clinical and laboratory markers that predict CNA presence can help focus screening efforts, enabling more efficient risk stratification and prognosis assessment in acute leukemia Objective To describe the characteristics and analyze for associations between CNA, clinical characteristics, and laboratory findings in pediatric ALL patients. Methods This cross-sectional observational study included B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients from three hospitals, excluding those above 18 years. Data collected encompassed demographics, clinical features, and laboratory results. We performed multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) testing to identify CNA positivity. Results From January to December 2019, there were 74 pediatric ALL patients incuded in our study; 26 of them had positive results and the remaining 48 had negative results. CNA-positive status was commonly found in subjects aged ? 5 years (38.6%), while CNA-negative status was highest in patients aged ? 10 years (72.7%). CNA-positive status was significantly higher in patients with lymphadenopathy, lower hemoglobin level (7.73 g/dL), and lower platelet level (52,019/µL) (P<0.05). Conclusion Patients with lymphadenopathy, lower hemoglobin, and lower platelet levels are more likely to test positive for CNA. However, more research is needed to fully understand the implications of this finding and its potential impact on patient care.
