Abstract

Background: To determine the incidence of hepatitis A infections and the clinical profiles of adult patients admitted to public hospitals in Jakarta, Indonesia. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study that utilised consecutive secondary data from internal medicine wards of seven public hospitals in Jakarta between 2011 and 2013. Eligibility criteria included patients over the age of 18 years and an ICD-10 diagnosis code of B15, acute hepatitis A. Case proportion was reported per 1000 people by dividing incidence per year to total in-ward patients. Clinical profiles were reported descriptively. Laboratory results were compared and categorised into groups of patients aged below and above 25 years old. Results: Data revealed that hospitalisations of patients with hepatitis A had decreased from 2011 to 2013. 289 patients were studied, the majority were young adults (18-25 years old) and their common chief complaints were nausea (36%), fever (24%), and jaundice (21%). Higher bilirubin levels were seen in older patients. There were 13 patients coinfected with hepatitis B, one patient coinfected with hepatitis C, and one patient coinfected with HIV. Conclusions: The proportion of hepatitis A infection amongst adults admitted to public hospitals in Jakarta was low and had decreased during the study period. Most of the patients reported classical clinical manifestations. This study found that the targeted age group may benefit from receiving routine hepatitis A vaccinations.

Abstract

Introduction. Increase access towards antiretroviral therapy (ART) contribute to global decrease of HIV-associated morbidity and mortality. Time to initiation of ART in eligible HIV-infected patients is associated with reduction in mortality and morbidity. Delayed initiation of antiretroviral therapy can lead to increased of mortality rate more than 10% compare to early initiation. Methods. This study was a cross sectional study among adult HIV patients in Out-patient Clinic of HIV Integrated Clinic Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital who started ARV therapy for the first time (ART-naïve patients) enrolled from January 2013 to December 2014. The data were extracted from medical records to identify factors associated with delayed initiation ART among HIV patient. Delayed initiation ART was defined as eligible patients didn’t initiate ART within 10 weeks after the diagnosis of HIV infection. Factors identified were gender, education level, employment, marital status, WHO clinical stage, BMI, functional status, and the presence of opportunistic infection. Logistic regression test was used to find factors associated with delayed initiation of ART. Results. There were 444 subjects in this study, which consisted of 107 patients (24.1%) who delayed initiation of ART and 337 patients (75.9%) who didn’t delayed initiation of ART. Based on the bivariate analysis, there were three variables statistically significance, which were advanced WHO clinical stage (p<0.001), lower functional status (p<0.001) and the presence of opportunistic infection (p<0.001). Further multivariate analysis showed that there were two variables associated with delayed initiation of ART, which were advanced WHO clinical stage (OR: 2.92, 95%CI 1.53-7.40, p=0.02) and the presence of opportunistic infection (OR 1.99, 95%CI 1.21-3.29, p=0.01). Conclusions. Advanced WHO clinical stage and the presence of opportunistic infections are factors associated with delayed initiation of ART among HIV patients.
