Abstract

Background: The thyroid has a vital role in growth, neurodevelopment, reproduction, and metabolism. About 300 million people around the world had been reported to be suffering from thyroid disorders, but more than half were unaware. The factors of sex, age, weight of disease, and other accompanying conditions should be considered, otherwise, it will cause a long time treatment period in which the cost will become higher from year to year. Purpose: The systematic review aims to provide an overview of the financial burden caused by thyroid disease for the communities, governments and health care providers. Method: A systematic review of publications in several databases, namely PUBMED, SCIENCE DIRECT, DOAJ, SCOPUS and GOOGLE SCHOLAR. Results: Six research articles were obtained from publications selected for systematic review. The reviewed articles show overviews of the cost of thyroid disease in several countries. The financial burden of thyroid patients in some countries varies, with different perspectives. The lowest to highest cost ranges from 0.125 USD/patient – 8106 USD/patient. Conclusion: The study in this review illustrates the various costs in different countries; the cost of screening, and thyroid surgery has the largest contribution compared to other costs; research on the financial burden suffered by thyroid patients in the future must be carried out continuously and periodically to be able to estimate the cost of therapy more appropriately to provide a useful data for health care providers, governments and the community. Direct medical costs are the largest proportion.

Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder that cannot be cured and progressively develop into a complication affecting the patient's health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The utility is a measure of preference-based HRQoL. Indirect utility measurements can be measured using the Multi-Attribute Utility Instrument (MAUI) instrument, one of which is the 15D questionnaire that has never been translated and adapted culturally in Indonesian. Objective: Translating and culturally adapting the 15D questionnaire to Indonesian diabetes mellitus patients. Methods: The translation process was carried out through the stages of forward translation, reconciliation, and backward translation involving two qualified translators and three experts in their field. The pilot test stage involved eight respondents consisting of 6 diabetes mellitus patients and two healthy individuals. Results: Problems in the linguistic validation process led to more conformity of word equivalents from the original to the target language. The agreement found was in the area of semantic equivalence, idiomatic equivalence, and experiential equivalence. The problem was resolved by reconciliation during the Focus Group Discussion, which translators and experts in their field attended and discussed with the original author to get equality of meaning in terms of language and culture. The Indonesian version of the 15D questionnaire tested on eight respondents showed results that were easy to understand and straightforward. Conclusion: The Indonesian version of the 15D questionnaire is valid from the linguistic and cultural adaptation stage. Further research is needed relating to the validation and reliability of the questionnaire.
