<![CDATA[Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is the seventh leading cause of death in the world (the occuring rate has reached 400 million people). Type2 DM is caused by the body cells' inability to respond normally to insulin (insulin resistance). Homeostatic Model Assessment-Insuline Resistance (HOMA-IR) is a calculation method which function is to measure the body insulin resistance. Diabetes mellitus can cause lipid metabolism disorders (dyslipidemia) resulting in an increased level of LDL cholesterol and decreased HDL cholesterol. The apoprotein B/apoprotein A-I ratio is the result of comparisons of apoprotein B (LDL protein constituent) and apoprotein A-I (HDL protein constituent). The apo B/apo A-I ratio represents a balance between LDL cholesterol (atherogenic) and HDL (anti-atherogenic). It is astrong signifier in predicting heart disease. Purpose: This study aim to determine the correlation between the apoprotein B/apoprotein A-I ratio with HOMA-IR in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Method: Observasional, consecutive, 100 people with type 2 diabetes mellitus who is examined in apoprotein B, apoprotein A-I test that calculating the ratio in which ratio are calculated, as well as HOMA-IR in Parahita Clinical Laboratory Surabaya. This study uses Pearson correlation test method with SPSS 22.0 for Windows program. Result: The result of Pearson correlation test between apoprotein B/apoprotein A-I ratio with HOMA-IR in 100 samples is a strong and significant correlation value (r=0,610, p<0,05). Conclusion: There is a strong correlation between the apoprotein B/apoprotein A-I ratio with HOMA-IR in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: Storage is a pre-analytic part that plays a role in maintaining cell quality functionally. Examination of platelet count is influenced by pre-analytic factors, namely time and temperature since specimen collection so that the specimen storage guidelines are needed to obtain accurate laboratory results. Delays in examinations often occur and are caused by the lack of medical personnel, heavy volume of work, or non-technical problems that occur during examination. Purpose: Analyze the effect of storing blood samples at room temperature (18-24oC) and refrigerator (2-8oC) for 24 hours on platelet count. Method: Analytical observations, 30 samples with normal criteria, thrombocytosis, and thrombocytopenia that were examined at Laboratorium Patologi Klinik RSU Haji Surabaya. The method used is analytical observations and the study used a different test of friedman with SPSS 16.0 program to determine whether there is a significant difference in platelet count in blood samples at room temperature and refrigerator temperature for 24 hours with the initial examination. Result: The results of the friedman test analysis of the differences in the results of platelet count for 30 samples showed significant differences with sig. (2-tailed) of 0.00 (p <0.05). Conclusion: There was a significant difference between the results of the platelet count at the beginning of the examination with a delay in the refrigerator storing temperature (2-8oC) and room storing temperature (18-24oC) for 24 hours.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: Patients with dengue fever with hemoconcentration will experience plasma tearing (loss of plasma protein) which will affect the value of the Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (LED). Plasma proteins that play a role in influencing the value of the Sedimentation Rate (LED) are fibrinogen and globulins. An erythrocyte sedimentation (LED) examination measures the degree of erythrocyte deposition in a blood sample over a period of time. LEDs are sensitive but not specific tests. Purpose: To determine the difference in LED values of DHF patients with hemoconcentration and not hemoconcentration. Method: Observational analytic, 30 samples with criteria for dengue fever patients with hemoconcentration and not hemoconcentration were examined at the Clinical Pathology Laboratory of Haji Hospital Surabaya in March - April 2019. The study used an independent t test with SPSS 16.0 program to determine whether there were differences in LED values in dengue fever patients with hemoconcentration and not hemoconsetration. Result: The results of the Independent t test showed that there were significant differences between the results of the erythrocyte sedimentation rate in patients with dengue fever with hemoconcentration and not hemoconsetration with Sig. (2-failed) of 0.00 (p <0.005).
