Abstract

Background: Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media (CSOM) is one of the major health problems found in many populations in the world and a cause of high morbidity and high mortality. However, there is no single theory that explains how and why chronic otitis media occurs. There are many studies on the function of Eustachian tube. However, the role of the Eustachian tube angle and the relationship with the occurrence of CSOM has not been widely studied. This study aimed to evaluate the mean of Eustachian tube angle and to examine the diffrentiation between angle of Eustachian tube in Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media (CSOM) patient with and without cholesteatoma. Subjects and Methods: This research is a case-control study. Study group consist of 27 patients of CSOM with cholesteatoma and 27 patients of CSOM without cholesteatoma included as controlling. All patients are examined by using CT temporal and measured the angle of Eustachian tube using Multiplanar Reconstruction (MPR) technique on osirix program. The data was analyzed using independent T testResults: The mean of the Eustachian tube angle in CSOM with cholesteatoma in female patients was 28.690 and male 27.780 whereas in the CSOM group without cholesteatoma in female patients was 33.810 and men 31.870. The mean of Eustachian tube angle in CSOM patients with cholesteatoma is 28.220 and CSOM without cholesteatoma is 33.000. In independent T test, the result showed significant differentiation (p= 0.001) between the angle of Eustachian tube in patients CSOM with and without cholesteatoma.Conclusion: The advance of technology makes easier to measure of Eustachian tube angle. In men found that the Eustachian tube angle is more horizontal than women. There is diffrence between the angle of the Eustachian tube with the occurrence of cholesteatoma in CSOM.Keywords: angle of Eustachian tube, CSOM Correspondence: Rissa Ardika Nasution. RSUP H.

Abstract

Background: Quality of life (QoL) is an important component in the evaluation of the well-being of people living with HIV and AIDS (PLWHA), especially with the appreciable rise in the longevity of PLWHA. The analysis of the quality of life is essential for the healthcare policies and services directed toward PLWHA, since this indicator values the perception of people about their own life and health. However, little is known about the determinant of QoL in PLWHA in Papua. The aim of this study was to analyze survival predictors of people living with HIV/ AIDS in Wamena, Papua, Indonesia.Subjects and Method: This was a retrospective cohort study conducted in Wamena Hospital, Papua, from December 2017 to February 2018. A cohort of 304 PLWHA was selected for this study from the medical record at Wamena Hospital. The dependent variable was survival. The independent variables were adherence to ART, nutritional status, age, and coinfection. The data were collected from medical record and questionnaire. The data were analyzed by Cox regression model.Results: The risk of dying of PLWHA if adherent to take the ART was lower than not adherent to take the ART (HR=0.45; 95% CI= 0.06 to 0.33; p= 0.002).The risk of dying of PLWHA with poor nutritional status was higher than good nutritional status (HR= 12.78; 95% CI= 6.81 to 23.98; p< 0.001). The risk of dying of PLWHA aged ?35 years was slightly higher than <35 years (HR= 1.47; 95% CI= 1.00 to 2.17; p= 0.050). The risk of dying of PLWHA with coinfected was higher than without coinfected (HR= 1.59; 95% CI= 1.15 to 2.23; p= 0.006).Conclusion: The risk of dying of PLWHA decreases if adherent to take the ART, but increases with poor nutritional status, age ?35 years, and coinfection.Keywords: survival, adherence to treatment, people living with HIV/ AIDS.Correspondence:Tena Kogoya.

Abstract

Background: One of the goals of colorectal cancer surgery is to facilitate the digestive tract to function properly. Surgery performed can lead new problems such as infection, sepsis, postoperative pain, and nausea vomiting.  Modulation of perioperative nutrition of intestinal microbiota such as probiotics is more and more applied as a strategy to reduce complications of elective surgical infection and accelerate the improvement of gastrointestinal symptoms such as flatus and defecation. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of giving probiotics on digestive function in patients after colorectal cancer surgery.Subjects and Methods: The subjects of this study were postoperative patients with colorectal cancer, with a total sample of 20. The sampling technique used non-random sampling. This type of the study is quasi experimental design with Post-test Only Control Design method. In this design, the sample is divided into two groups namely, group I was given probiotics and group II was not given probiotics then the follow up treatmen was conducted to assess the effect on the digestive function of patients after colorectal cancer surgery.Results: The majority of post-operative colorectal cancer patients were> 50 years (85%). The sex of post operative patients with colorectal cancer balanced between men and women, which was equally 50%. There was a significant difference between intestinal bowel surgery after colorectal cancer surgery which was given probiotics with no probiotics given (p <0.05). Similarly, post operative flatus colorectal cancer patients also had significant differences with the values (p <0.05). As for the defecation patients of post-surgery colorectal cancer , there was also a significant difference between the defecation patients of post-surgery of colorectal cancer surgery given probiotics and those not given probiotics with values (p <0.05).Conclusion: statistically, there was an effect of giving probiotics to digestive function including bowel sound, flatus, and defecation of post-surgery patient of colorectal cancer.Keywords: Probiotics, digestive function, colorectal cancerCorespondence: Impol Hutapea.

Abstract

Background: Prevalence of obesity on women was higher than men. Obesity was related to the resistance of leptin hormone. Estradio hormone also played an important role in energy  metabolism and body weight control. The study aimed to discover the relationship between estradiol  concentration with leptin concentration on women with obesity, overweight and normal body weight in Banda Aceh City.Subjects and Method:  The study was an analytic observational study with case control design. There were a total of 75 women of 20-40 year- old who were selected as research subjects by using purposive sampling. The research subjects were divided into 3 groups, namely obesity, over weight, and normal body weight. The study was conducted in Banda Aceh City in July – October 2014.  Dependent variable of the study was women’s body weight. Independent variables were leptin concentration which was investigated by using ELISA technique and estradiol concentration which was investigated by using AxSYM Estradiol Assay. The data was analyzed by using Spearman correlation test.Results: The result of the study obtained the median value of estradiol concentration on normal group was higher than on obesity and overweight group, that was 63 Pg/mL (18-420). The average concentration of leptin on normal group is higher than obesity and overweight group, that was 4.56 ng/mL (up to ± 3.48). However, it did not find any correlation between the concentration of  estradiol and the concentration of leptin on women with obesity, overweight and normal weight (R= 0.03; p= 0.121;).Conclusion: The study showed that women with obesity experienced the decreasing concentration of estradiol and leptin, however it did not find significant correlation between estradiol and leptin.Keywords:  estradiol, leptin, women with obesity, overweight, normal body weightCorrespondence: Yulia Fitri.

Abstract

Background: Obesity is associated with a decrease in iron status, possibly it is an increase in hepcidin, an inflammatory protein that reduces iron absorption. Hepcidin is associated with iron homeostasis and inflammation. This study aims to determine differences in levels of hepcidin and ferritin of obesity pregnant women and normal weight before pregnancy.Subjects and Method: This was an analytic observational study with a case control design. A total of 62 pregnant women was selected by consecutive technique sampling and divided into 2 groups, namely obesity and normal weight before pregnancy. The study was conducted at RSIA BadrulAini Medan and at RSUP H.Adam Malik Medan from September to December 2016. The dependent variable of this study was the weight before pregnancy. The independent variable washepcidin levels examined by ELISA method, ferritin content with Immunochemiluminescent method. The data analysis employed Mann Whitney's different test.Results: Median of hepcidin level in obese pregnant women before pregnancy was higher than pregnant mother with normal weight of 7.08 ng / mL (2.14 to 78.18). There was no difference in hepcidin level in both groups (p = 0.578). Median ferritin levels in obese pregnant women were higher than the normal weight of 20.57 ?g / L (3.66 to 102.25). There was no difference of ferritin levels in both groups (p = 0.598).Conclusion: This study showed no difference in hepcidin levels and ferritin levels in obese pregnant women and normal weight before pregnancy.Keywords: Feritin,hepcidin, obesity before pregnancy, normal body weight before pregnancyCorrespondence: Hadiyatur Rahma.
