Abstract

BACKGROUND: Obstructive uropathy and hydronephrosis are common complications of cervical cancer. In order to provide an alternative route due to ureteral obstruction, urinary diversion was performed. Urinary diversion procedures are a therapeutic option for obstructive uropathy but their effectiveness is remain unclear. There is limited data that support urinary diversion as a treatment of ureteral obstruction to improve overall survival and progression-free survival. AIM:  To determine the effectiveness of urinary diversion in the treatment of obstructive uropathy in cervical cancer patients. METHOD: This study is a cross sectional involved cervical cancer patients with symptoms of obstructive uropathy. Data were obtained from medical records and limited to patients admitted from May, 2020 to May, 2021. Primary outcome was urea level, creatinine level, stage of hydronephrosis and overall survival rate of patients. RESULT: A total of 100 patients were included in the study. In both groups, the mean age of study subjects was 52-53 years with stage IIIB being the most widely reported. There was an improvement in post creatinine in the urinary diversion group. There was a significant difference in post creatinine levels between the non-urine diversion and urinary diversion groups (p=0.039).The 12-month survival rate, in the non-urinary diversion group had a value of 86% while the urinary diversion group had a value of 94%. CONCLUSION: This study shows that urinary diversion procedure is effective in increasing the renal function and increasing the 12-month survival of cervical cancer patients with obstructive uropathy.

Abstract

Introduction: Preeclampsia is a hypertensive condition that occurs after 20 weeks of gestation accompanied by target organ damage. Complications of preeclampsia can cause intrauterine fetal growth retardation, and placental hypoperfusion, even in the most serious situations, namely termination of pregnancy and death of the fetus and/or mother. Pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) is a high molecular weight glycoprotein that is produced in the placenta and secreted into the maternal bloodstream. However, based on several studies that have been conducted, there is uncertainty in the results of assessing PAPP-A levels obtained in pregnant women in the second and third trimesters. Aim: Proving differences in PAPP-A levels in the second and third trimesters in the incidence of early-onset preeclampsia and normotensive pregnancy. Methods: An analytic observational study with a cross-sectional approach was carried out in the delivery room of RSUP Dr. Kariadi Semarang, Halmahera Health Center, Ngesrep Health Center, Bulu Health Center, and private midwife practice in Semarang City. The subjects of the study were six 2nd-trimester preeclampsia patients, fourteen 3rd-trimester preeclampsia patients, and twenty normotensive pregnancy patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were analyzed using Mann Whitney with a significance of p<0.05 Results: There was a significant difference in PAPP-A levels (p<0.001) between the preeclampsia and normotensive pregnancy groups, whereas PAPP-A levels were higher in the preeclampsia group. There were significant differences in PAPP-A levels (p<0.001) between the 2nd-trimester preeclampsia, 3rd-trimester preeclampsia, and normotensive pregnancies, where the highest PAPP-A levels were found in the 2nd-trimester preeclampsia group. Conclusion: There was a significant difference in PAPP-A levels between the second and third trimesters of early-onset preeclampsia compared to normotensive pregnancies, where PAPP-A levels were higher in the second and third trimesters of early-onset preeclampsia. Elevated PAPP-A levels in the second and third trimesters are associated with an increased risk of early-onset preeclampsia.
