Abstract

Hospital malnutrition is known as a risk factor for mortality and morbidity in children, adolescents, and adults. Critically ill child more prone to suffer from malnutrition during treatment. This is because protein metabolism in critically ill children in different to the healthy children. Protein metabolism in critically ill children influenced by catabolic hormones triggered by stressful state resulting in increased protein breakdown. Therefore the protein requirement for critically ill children is different from healthy children. There are several methods of evaluation that can be used to evaluate the protein metabolism status, among others anthropometry, nitrogen balance, and tracer isotope. The importance of maintaining the balance of formation and protein breakdown must be one of the targets of nutritional therapy in the pediatric intensive care unit, thus improving treatment outcomes.Keyword : critically ill, protein metabolism, children

Abstract

Levels of Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) can have a positive correlation with Body Mass Index(BMI), which is found TSH levels increased slightly with increased leptin in obese children. Increasing ofTSH, Free Triiodotironine (FT3) and leptin levels in obese children and their weight loss causes adecrease in serum TSH, FT3, and leptin levels, supporting the hypothesis that alterations in thyroidfunction in obesity are reversible with weight loss.Keywords: thyroid function, obesity, children

Abstract

Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is the most common chronic kidney disease in children.As one of chronic diseases having remission and relapse periods and requiring longterm corticosteroid theraphy, NS has impacts on children’s biologic, social, and behavior functions which will affect psychosocial developmen of the children and their families. Untill now there were difficulties in determining behavioural problem in children with NS and to determine whether it was caused by the disease itself or by chronic condition or by the side effect of steroid theraphy. High-dose steroid usage, mainly in the early treatment phase of NS is proven to correlate with internalization behavioural problem, manifesting with anxiety, depression, aggressiveness, and retraction from social life.It is suggested to pay more attention to psychosocial problems in children with NS especially in the early phase of steroid theraphy.Keywords : nephritic syndrome, children, behavioral problem, steroidTinjauan Pustaka

Abstract

Background : Diabetic retinopathy is main complications of diabetes. Some studies suggest a relation between red blood cell count (RBC) and diabetic retinopathy. Diabetic retinopathy is diagnosed with funduscopic examination, while red blood cell count can be seen from the peripheral blood examination, with the result is a relation of a decreased red blood cell count with diabetic retinopathy.Objective : To determine the relation between RBC count and diabetic retinopathy in diabetic type 2 patients. So that these parameters can be used as prospective and reliable indicators to detect complication of diabetes mellitus in the target organs, specially the eyes as early as possible.Methods: This cross sectional study with measurement data from March - June 2015, there were  49 patients with type 2 diabetic examined from the anamnesis, examination of vital signs, physical examination, and examination of routin peripheral blood, HbA1C ,fasting and 2 hours post prandial glucose count, lipid profile and funduscopy, subsequently the patients were classified in to two group, the diabetic retinopathy and without diabetic retinopathy respectively.Results : From 49 subjects were included and observed in this study, from statistical analysis data found that there are relation between age (p=0,001), smoking habbit (p=0,006), hemoglobin (Hb) (p=0.002), duration of diabetic (p=0,0001) and  the RBC count with diabetic retinopathy (p= 0,0001 ). From multivariate analysis we found that RBC range lower than 4,8 billion/mm3 are independent predictor for the incidence of diabetic retinopathy.Conclusion : This study found a significant relation between RBC count and diabetic retinopathy and RBC also can predict the incidence of diabetic retinopathy in patient with diabetes.Keywords : RBC, diabetic retinopathy, diabetes.

Abstract

Pendahuluan :Terapi dengan Kriopresipitat terhadap pasien Haemophilia A mempunyai beberapa keuntungan dibandingkan F VIII concentrate yang dijual komersil seperti kecilnya kemungkinan timbulnya allogeneic – antibody (inhibitor), selain itu harga (cost)  dari  kriopresipitat jauh lebih murah dari commercial concentrate,  hal ini mengakibatkan Kriopresipitat  sangat penting bagi pengobatan Haemophilia A  di negara-negara yang sedang berkembang seperti di Indonesia. Faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi faktor VIII dalam Kriopresipitat telah dipelajari dalam konteks program pembuatan komponen darah. Pada proses pembuatan Kriopresipitat harus melalui prosedur pembekuan, dan pelarutan serta pemutaran/centrifugasi. Sehingga menurut teori prosedur ini dapat membuat hilangnya sebagian aktivitas faktor VIII. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui berapa kehilangan aktivitas F VIII dan melihat berapa Kadar pemulihan faktor VIII selama pembuatan Kriopresipitat. Metode : Metode penelitian obsevasi analitik secara potong lintang di RSUP H.Adam Malik Medan, selama Maret-Mei 2015. Subjek penelitian adalah pendonor yang  darahnya  diambil oleh petugas Unit Transfusi Darah RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan. Yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan ekslusi.Hasil : Selama penelitian ini diperoleh 28 pendonor yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dalam penelitian ini, yang kemudian darahnya di ambil untuk dilakukan pemeriksaan Faktor VIII. Dijumpai penurunan yang tidak signifikan konsentrasi Faktor VIII pada plasma awal (156.19  ± 32.79) dibandingkan dengan konsentrasi Faktor VIII pada Kriopresipitat (150.70± 29.08), dengan nilai (p > 0.05). Dijumpai penurunan yang signifikan konsentrasi Faktor VIII absolut (G1 unit)pada plasma awal (24599 ± 5163.9) dibandingkan dengan konsentrasi Faktor VIII absolut (G 2 unit) pada Kriopresipitat (5397.07± 1344.65), dengan nilai (p < 0.001). Setelah dihitung dengan rumus absolut ternyata Kadar pemulihan faktor VIII hanya 21.95%. Sehingga dapat diperkirakan kehilangan dari  FVIII absolute pada Kriopresipitat sekitar 78.05%.Kesimpulan : Terjadi kehilangan aktivitas maupun jumlah F VIII yang cukup besar dalam pembuatan Kriopresipitat dengan teknik Refrigerator-Centrifugation.Kata kunci : Hemofilia, Kriopresipitat, faktor VIII

Abstract

Introduction : Typhoid fever is a systemic infectious disease caused by Salmonella typhi. That is still widely found in the world and many developing countries that are mainly located in the tropical and subtropical. Clinical diagnosis of typhoid fever is difficult because there is no typical clinical manifestation, therefore we need laboratory tests. Typhidot IgM  is one of serological examination is a rapid examination with  of detecting the presence of  antibodies IgM of Outer membrane protein (OMP) 50KDa antigen in Salmonella typhi.The aim of this study was to assess the sensitivity and specificity of the IgM antigen examination of  Outer membrane protein (OMP) 50KDa Salmonella typhi  with blood culture.Methods : The method that was used in this study was diagnostic testing to compare rapid examination Typhidot IgM with blood cultures in  adult patients ≥ 18 years old, with fever≥38º,  fever ≥3 days, who were diagnosed with suspected typhoid fever or typhoid fever based on Nelwan score in Haji Adam Malik Hospital.Results : The number of subjects are 29 people, with 25 positive Typhidot IgM (86%) and 11 positive blood cultures (38%). The examination results of Typhidot IgM towards blood culture showed 100% sensitivity, 22% specificity, 45%  positive predictive value and 100% negative predictive value.Conclusion : The results of rapid examination Typhidot IgM  showed a good sensitivity and a poor specificity, with a negative predictive value of 100% which indicates that  rapid examination Typhidot IgM can not be use a diagnostic examination but Typhidot IgM can be use as an initial screening examination this means that Typhidot IgM  able to get rid of a case that really is not typoid fever.Keyword : Typhoid fever, rapid test Typhidot , Blood Cultures.
