Background: Increased blood pressure for a long time can increase the risk of kidney failure, co­ronary heart disease, brain damage, and other di­seases. In 2019, it is estimated that hyper­tens­ion is experienced by 1.13 billion people in the world with most (two thirds) living in low and mid­­dle income countries. Other study also shows that the police and military are at risk of develop­ing hypertension due to a number of factors such as low know­led­ge about healthy and nutritious food, co-workers who are smokers, and consum­ing alco­hol. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors for hypertension in the police and military in the world using meta analysis. Subjects and Method: This was a meta-ana­lysis and systematic review. The articles used we­re obtained from Google Scholar, Springer Link, Pro­­Quest, and Science Direct databases. Selected arti­cles published from 2000 to 2020. Keywords to search for articles are as follows: hypertension po­lice personnel and military, or hypertension po­lice personnel and military. The articles studi­ed are 3 full text articles with cross sectional stu­dy designs and 1 full text articles with case cont­rol study design. Articles are col­lect­ed using PRI­S­­­MA diagrams, and analy­zed us­ing the Re­vi­ew Ma­nager application 5.3. Results: Overweight (aOR= 1.42; 95% CI = 1.01 to 2.00; p= 0.04), alcohol consumption (aOR­=­ 1.­55; 95% CI= 1.12 to 2.12; p= 0.007), ciga­rette con­­­­sumption (aOR= 1.45 ; 95% CI= 1.06 to 1.97; p= 0.020) is a risk factor for hyper­­­tension in the po­­­lice and military. Conclusion: Overweight, alcohol consump­tion, and cigarette consump­tion, are risk fac­tors for hypertension in po­lice and military personnel.

Abstract

Background: Low back pain (LBP) is defined as a symptom that cannot be specifically validated. LBP is one of the most common forms of musculoskeletal disorders. Anyone can experience lower back pain throughout his life, because LBP is back pain without any underlying abnormalities. There are many exercises that can be given to treat this LBP, one of which is the McKenzie Exercise. The principle of this exercise is to improve posture to reduce lumbar hyperlordosis. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the McKenzie Exercise for pain reduction in patients with non-specific LBP. Subjects and Method: This was a systematic review and meta-analysis carried out with the PRISM flow diagram. Search for articles through journal databases includes: PubMed, Science Direct, Google Schoolar and PEDro by selecting articles published in 2010-2020. The keywords used were ("LBP" OR "Low Back Pain") AND ("McKenzie Exercise" OR "Therapy") AND "randomized controlled trial". The inclusion criteria were full paper articles with the Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT), the size of the relationship used with the Mean SD, the intervention given was McKenzie Exercise, the study subjects had an age range of 18-65 years, and experienced non-specific low back pain, without radicular pain. Eligible articles were analyzed using the Revman 5.3. Results: A meta-analysis of 11 articles showed that the McKenzie Exercise was able to reduce pain in patients with non-specific low back pain by 0.44 times compared to other interventions or no intervention. (SMD -0.44; 95% CI = -1.06 to 0.18; p = 0.16).Conclusion: McKenzie Exercise has a weak effect to reduce pain in patients with non-specific low back pain.

Abstract

Background: COVID-19 is a disease caused by a new coronavirus called SARS-CoV-2. In more severe cases, COVID-19 can cause death. The most severe COVID-19 patient mortality is associated with underlying health conditions. The most common associated comorbidities are pulmonary disease, diabetes, obesity, and old age. However, the effects of obesity and T2DM disease on the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic are controversial. This study aims to analyze the magnitude of the influence of obesity and T2DM on COVID-19 mortality.Subjects and Method: This study uses a systematic review and meta-analysis research design. The time of the selected test results is between January 2020 to January 2021. The search for articles is carried out for 1 month. Research data was searched from databases: PubMed, Google Scholar, JAMA, Willey, and Science Direct. Using search keywords: (Type 2 diabetes mellitus OR diabetic) AND (mortality OR death) AND (COVID-19 /OR Coronavirus OR SARS-CoV-2) AND ("adjusted odds ratio" OR "aOR"), (obesity OR obese) AND (mortality OR death) AND (COVID-19 OR Coronavirus OR SARS-CoV-2) AND ("adjusted odds ratio" OR "aOR"). The inclusion criteria in this study were full-text articles in English, observational study designs were collected using PRISMA, and analyzed using the Review Manager application (RevMan 5.3).Results: A total of 15 articles were reviewed in this study. A meta-analysis of 10 cohort studies showed that people with COVID19 who had comorbid obesity were 1.50 times more likely to die from COVID-19 compared to those without obesity (aOR = 1.50; 95% CI = 1.17 to 1.93; p = 0.001). A meta-analysis of 6 cohort studies showed people with COVID-1919 who had comorbid T2DM 1.93 times to die from COVID-19 compared with those without T2DM (aOR = 1.93; 95% CI = 1.28 to 2.90; p = 0.002).Conclusion: Obesity and T2DM are predictors of COVID19 mortality.

Abstract

Background: COVID-19, caused by severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), emerged as a global pandemic with confirmed death cases of more than 1.27 million worldwide. Since the past pandemic, several studies discovered the adverse effects of excess fat accumulation on the severity of viral infections. This study aimed to investigate the association between high body mass index (BMI) and mortality risk in hospitalized COVID-19 patients based on four categories of high BMI ranges. Subjects and Method: A systematic review and Meta-Analysis was conducted using search articles from electronic databases including PubMed, Google Scholar, and Scopus, published from 2019 to 2021. The keywords used to retrieve articles were "Body Mass Index" OR BMI OR Obesity OR Overweight) AND (Mortality OR Death) AND COVID-19 OR SARS-CoV-2. The included studies were full-text articles published in the English language, reporting adjusted odds ratios from multivariate analysis. The eligibility criteria were defined using PICO model. The article selection was conducted using PRISMA flow chart. The included studies were analyzed by the Review Manager 5.3 application. Results: A total of nine cohort studies involving 12,907 COVID-19 patients with high BMI conducted from America, Europe, and Georgia regions was included in qualitative synthesis and Meta-Analysis. The pooled estimate showed hospitalized COVID-19 patients with morbid/ class III obesity had a higher risk of mortality (aOR= 1.77; 95% CI= 1.27 to 2.47; p= 0.001) than overweight (aOR= 1.10; 95% CI= 1.00 to 1.21; p= 0.060), class I (aOR= 1.16; 95% CI= 0.87 to 1.55; p= 0.300), and class II obesity (aOR= 1.54; 95% CI= 1.11 to 2.13; p= 0.009). Conclusion: High BMI increases the risk of mortality in hospitalized COVID-19 patients. A potential dose-response relationship may exist between different categories of high BMI range and mortality risk in COVID-19 patients.

Abstract

Background: Malaria is an important threat to pregnant women, with an increased risk for both mother and newborn, especially in the first and second pregnancies caused by P. falciparum. Malaria infection in pregnant women can cause anemia in the mother and fetus, as well as babies with low birth weight, this can increase maternal and infant mortality rates. This study aims to analyze the magnitude of the influence of malaria infection in pregnant women on the incidence of anemia based on a number of previous similar studies.Subjects and Method: This was a systematic review and meta-analysis carried out by following the PRISMA flow diagram. The process of searching for articles is carried out through a journal database which includes: Google Scholar, PubMed, and Science Direct by selecting articles published in 2010-2020. Key words used include: "malaria infection" AND "pregnancy women" OR "anemia" AND "adjusted odds ratio". The inclusion criteria were full paper articles with observational study design, articles in English, multivariate analysis used with adjusted odds ratios. Articles that meet the requirements are analyzed using the Revmen 5.3 application.Results: A total of seven articles were reviewed in this study with a cross-sectional study design. A meta-analysis of 7 cross-sectional studies showed that malaria infection had a 1.72 times increased risk of anemia in pregnant women compared to those not infected with malaria (aOR 1.72; 95% CI 1.43 to 2.07; p <0.001).Conclusion: Malaria infection increases the risk of anemia in pregnant women.Keywords: malaria infection, pregnancy, anemia, meta-analysisCorrespondence: Firdausi Nuzula.
