Abstract

Introduction: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) remains one of neonates' most common gastrointestinal diseases. NEC is allegedly to be a multifactorial disease. Some of the predisposing factors are cow’s milk formula (CMF) feeding or not being breast-fed from birth, sepsis, and Hypothyroidism. Case: An 8-day-old full-term baby girl was admitted with an initial diagnosis of sepsis and acute diarrhea due to cow's milk allergy. She had never been breast-fed from birth. She also had a fever, signs of mild-to-moderate dehydration, a C-Reactive Protein (CRP) level at 114, leukocyte 6.280/ul, platelet counts 477.000/ul, and fat on the stool test. She was given Cefotaxime, probiotics, zinc, and a hypoallergenic milk formula. Her condition worsened on the 4th day of hospitalization. She showed abdominal distention, bradypnea, and vomiting. She was then fasting, required a nasal cannula oxygen, and undergone several laboratory examinations showing leukocyte 4.980/ul, platelet count 54.300/ul, and a positive fecal occult blood test. An abdominal x-ray showed an increased bowel gas. She was then diagnosed with grade I NEC, and the antibiotic was changed to Meropenem, added with Metronidazole. She also undergone a thyroid hormone screening, had a TSH level of 6.36 and FT4 1.23, and thus was given Levothyroxine. Her condition improved gradually. After being given Meropenem for 7 days, she was discharged on the 12th day of hospitalization in good condition. Two days later, during the clinic’s follow-up, she was in good health, and it was planned that she would do a follow-up examination for thyroid hormones a month later. Conclusion: Cow’s milk allergy can be severe enough to develop sepsis. Meanwhile, both are predisposing factors for NEC. Hypothyroidism can also be a predisposing factor by causing a decrease in intestinal motility, which plays a role in bacterial overgrowth. A study in animals showed that bacteria play an important role in the development of NEC because NEC will not occur in a germ-free environment but can only develop after exposure to microbes. Conservative treatment for NEC includes broad-spectrum antibiotics, bowel rest, and abdominal decompression.

Abstract

In the early hours to early days of life, managing low blood glucose levels and screening infants at risk are common problems in the care of newborns. Still missing, though, is a precise definition of newborn hypoglycemia. The purpose of this study is knowing that pregnancy hypertension/preeclampsia/eclampsia, prematurity, small-gestational-weight (SGA), large-gestational-weight (LGA), asphyxia, and sepsis are risk factors associated with neonatal hypoglycemia. The type of research conducted was a cross-sectional retrospective analytic study on infants in the perinatology room at Wangaya Hospital in 2022. The sample in this study consisted of 18 hypoglycemia babies and 18 normoglycemia babies taken by purposive sampling with matching hypertension/preeclampsia/eclampsia pregnancy, prematurity, SGA, LGA, asphyxia and sepsis. Data collection used medical record data and perinatology register data. Statistical tests used were Chi-Square and logistic regression with a 95% confidence interval. The results showed that prematurity was an associated risk factor (OR=2.78; 95% CI=1.437-5.379), asphyxia and sepsis also showed statistical significance (OR=2.07; 95% CI=1.221-3.513) (OR=2.27; 95% CI=1.257-4.109). In multivariate analysis, there was no statistical significance among other factors (p-value 0.019). Prematurity, asphyxia, and sepsis were risk factors associated with the incidence of neonatal hypoglycemia with odds of 2.78 times, 2.07 times and 2.27 times respectively compared to the control population. However, in the multivariate analysis, there was no relationship between one factor to another factor that influenced each other in being a risk factor associated with hypoglycemia at Wangaya Hospital.

Abstract

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) remains one of the most common gastrointestinal diseases in neonates, with high morbidity and mortality. An 8-day-old full-term baby girl was admitted with an initial diagnosis of sepsis and acute diarrhea due to a cow’s milk allergy. Her condition worsened on the 4th day of hospitalization with abdominal distention, bradypnea, and vomiting. An abdominal x-ray showed increased bowel gas. She had a slightly lowered FT4. The findings met Bell’s criteria for the diagnosis of NEC. After being given meropenem and levothyroxine for 7 days, she was discharged on the 12th day of hospitalization in good condition. NEC is allegedly to be a multifactorial disease, with predisposing factors of cow’s milk formula (CMF) feeding or not breast-fed since birth, sepsis, and hypothyroidism. The combination of clinical symptoms, radiologic findings, and risk factor tracing is important in the diagnosis and management of NEC.

Abstract

Acute rheumatic fever is an autoimmune disease following group A β-hemolytic Streptococcal infection. The disease may present with variable symptoms and signs. Cases: The first case is an 8-year-old boy with arthritis and previous streptococcal infection. The treatment was glucocorticoids and antibiotics. The second case is a 17-year-old boy with prolonged fever and palpitations. Carditis was found on echocardiography. The treatment was aspirin and antibiotics. The third case is a 17-year-old girl with a congenital heart defect. The patient had severe carditis as well as arthritis. The treatment was diuretics, antibiotics, steroids, antiarrhythmics, and beta-blockers. Management differed in each case, but all had favorable outcomes. Conclusion: Clinicians should be aware of the various manifestations of rheumatic fever and come to a swift diagnosis to initiate prompt treatment, which thus can decrease disease burden and morbidity.

Abstract

Introduction: Congenital syphilis is a multi-organ infection caused by Treponema pallidum and transmitted from mother to fetus through uteroplacental circulation. Congenital syphilis is one of the main contributors to neonatal deaths in the United States. Case: A male infant was born by cesarean delivery from a G1P0 mother at 28 weeks of gestational age because of premature rupture of the membrane and anhydramnion. The mother had an untreated latent syphilis infection. The birthweight was 1,400 grams, the head circumference was 25 cm, and the body length was 35 cm. His APGAR score was 3-3-5 with severe asphyxia and respiratory distress syndrome. Multiple abnormalities were found, and the VDRL titre was 1/128. Cardiac-pulmonary resuscitation started immediately with 0.15 mg epinephrine through an intraendotracheal tube and continued with 0.02 mg epinephrine through intravenous access every 3 minutes. The baby was declared dead after 30 minutes of resuscitation. Conclusion: Congenital syphilis can cause lethal complications due to untreated latent syphilis suffered by his mother. The mother should undergo antenatal screening to prevent congenital syphilis.

Abstract

Introduction: HIV infection and malnutrition are strongly linked and correlated. Although the exact mechanism is unknown, malnutrition is suspected to disrupt antiretroviral (ART) drug absorption. This research is aimed at determining the relationship between nutritional status and immunological response in children with HIV/AIDS taking ART. Methods: A cross-sectional retrospective analytic study was conducted on 30 children with HIV/AIDS in the pediatric clinic at Wangaya Hospital, using medical record data. The sample was taken with purposive sampling. Nutritional status was defined as poor (weight per height [WHZ] < -2 for children <5 years old and BMI for age [BAZ] <-2 for children ≥5 years old) and good nutrition (WHZ ≥-2 and <+1 for <5 years old children and BAZ ≥-2 and <+1 for ≥5 years old). Immunological response was seen by the increase in CD4 level through a certain time span and categorized into poor (did not increase or increase below the average) and good response (increase above the average). The data was analyzed using Chi-Square. Results: There is no significant relationship between nutritional status and immunological response in children with HIV/AIDS (p = 0.660). There was an almost equal amount of each immunological response category for both good and poor nutritional status. Conclusion: This study showed no difference in immunological response among children with either good or poor nutritional status. Further research on other confounding factors that may affect immunological responses is needed.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is defined as low height-for-age caused by chronic or recurrent undernutrition. Undernutrition is the leading risk factor for tuberculosis (TB) globally. It is usually associated with poverty, poor maternal health and nutrition, frequent illness and/or inappropriate feeding and care in early life. Stunting prevents children from reaching their physical and cognitive potential, so appropriate management is needed. Case: weight for age but severely stunted and suggestive TB. Blood study result showed anemia with Mentzer index >13. Bone age showed the age of A 4 year-old girl was referred with breathing difficulty since 2 weeks accompanied with decreased appetite and weight. She was in normal 3 years and below chronological age. Management was focused on TB, nutritional, and anemia treatment. Conclusion: Nutritional assessment should be integrated into standard TB care and also simultaneously treat iron deficiency anemia.
