Abstract

BACKGROUND: There is currently insufficient study focusing on comprehensive studies that thoroughly assess the prevalence of Streptococcus pneumoniae specifically among elderly patients with pneumonia in Asia. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the prevalence of Streptococcus pneumoniae as a causative factor of pneumonia among elderly populations in Asian countries. METHODS: This meta-analysis was designed to systematically collect data from PubMed, Scopus, and Embase within the timeframe of January to February 2024. The study focused on gathering prevalence data of Streptococcus pneumoniae among elderly patients diagnosed with pneumonia in Asian countries. Statistical analysis employed a single-arm meta-analysis methodology to consolidate and evaluate the cumulative prevalence of Streptococcus pneumoniae in this specific population group. RESULTS: The total sample included in our study comprised 15 articles. Through our analysis, we found that the cumulative prevalence of Streptococcus pneumoniae among elderly patients diagnosed with pneumonia in Asia was 9% (Event rate: 0.09; 95% CI: 0.06, 0.12; Egger's test: p = 0.7047; p Heterogeneity < 0.0001; p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: Streptococcus pneumoniae remains a plausible causative agent of pneumonia in elderly Asian populations.

Abstract

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common types of cancer worldwide. CRC is most typical symptom is hematochezia while the risk factors encompass sex, age, genetic predispositions, history of colorectal polyps or cancer, chronic inflammatory bowel diseases, physical exercise, and specific dietary choices, including high red meat intake, fried food, and low fiber consumption. This study aims to screen the risk factors of colorectal cancer.Subjects and Method: This research was conducted on residents in the Sepanjang village, Malang Regency, involved in community service by the Internist Association of Malang. Community service was carried out in July 2023 and 148 residents were involved in collecting data on risk factors for colorectal carcinoma. Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire with a cross-sectional approach. The questionnaire assesses the presence of symptoms of bloody stools and several habits related to colorectal carcinoma risk factors, including age, gender, exercise routine, and dietary history. Data presentation and analysis were carried out as in the table.Results: Among the risk factors listed assessed using the questionnaire, Men (p=0.021), lack of exercise (p= 0.008), consumption of fried food (p= 0.021), and consumption of instant noodles (p= 0.013) significantly affect the prevalence of hematochezia.Conclusion: Men, lack of exercise, consumption of fried food, and consumption of instant noodles significantly affect the hematochezia indicating CRC.
