Kidney disease contributes mortality amongst people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWH). Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)-based ART was associated as risk factor of kidney disorders, indicate by declining glomerular filtration rate (GFR). However, there is limited study whether kidney disease among PLWH were related to ART use in Indonesia. Aims: To determine correlation between duration of antiretroviral therapy and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in people living with HIV/AIDS. Methods: This is an observational study with cross-sectional design. Eighty-nine HIV patients on antiretroviral therapy for at least three months with normal baseline GFR were studied. Estimated GFR calculated using the Cockcroft-Gault equation. Data obtained were analyzed with spearman correlation test. Results: Among 89 subjects, as many as 38 patients (42.7%) on therapy less than 12 months, 29 patients (32.6%) were on ART more than 24 months, and 22 patients (24.7%) 12-24 months. ART with normal kidney function were 62 patients (69.7%). Whereas 29.2% were mildly decrease GFR, and only 1.1% were mild to moderate decrease GFR. The analytical statistic showed a no significant between duration of antiretroviral therapy and GFR in PLWH with a p-value of 0.199 and Spearman’s r of 0.137. Conclusion: There was no significant correlation between duration of antiretroviral therapy and glomerular filtration rate in PLWH.

There are two types of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, and large cell carcinoma. Aims: To determine the demographics and histopathological characteristics of lung cancer patients in Cirebon District (2021-2023). Methods: This research employed a descriptive observational method. The data were collected from general hospitals’ medical records of lung cancer patients at RSUD Waled Cirebon and RSUD Arjawinangun in 2021-2023 using the total sampling technique.

The most common cancer cell type was adenocarcinoma (69.6%). Most patients did not have information regarding occupational data (68.1%), smoking history (98.6%), family history (98.6%), and staging (89.9%) included in their medical records. Conclusion: The analysis showed that most lung cancer patients are aged 46-70 years and male incidences in lung cancer patients were higher. The most common type of histopathological is adenocarcinoma. Related to occupational data, smoking history, family history, and staging could not be concluded because they were not included in the medical record.
