Abstract

Background: The most widely used lung function test, spirometry, requires constant coaching and more effort. An alternative modality of impulse oscillometry (IOS) was introduced, which is simpler than spirometry, requiring only basic tidal breathing and less cooperation, but with less stringent standards. Methods: This research was a diagnostic test research with medical records data of patients who underwent spirometry and oscillometry procedures within the same period. The study was conducted in Sebelas Maret University General Hospital from March to September 2024. Results: A total of 77% of examinations gave the same results, namely restriction in 32 people (30.8%) and obstruction in 48 people (46.2%). Meanwhile, as many as 23% of IOS examinations gave different results compared to spirometry examinations (discordance). Six normal results from spirometry showed the impression of obstruction in IOS. The agreement between the IOS examination and spirometry was moderately significant (P=0.0001). Conclusion: Impulse oscillometry is a useful adjunct to spirometry, which is still the gold standard, especially for patients who are incapable of performing forced maneuvers.

Abstract

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disease that is a health problem throughout the world. COPD sufferers can experience problems with decreased oxygen levels. This incidence can cause COPD sufferers to experience decreased sleep quality. Poor sleep quality will have an impact on the sufferer's physiology. Therefore, COPD sufferers can do breathing exercises, such as the 4-7-8 breathing exercises, which play a role in maximizing oxygen in the respiratory system. This study was conducted to determine the effect of 4-7-8 breathing exercises on improving sleep quality in patients with COPD Method: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest without a control. This research was conducted on 45 samples, which were recruited in Cut Nyak Dhien Regional Hospital's pulmonary polyclinic, from February 29 to March 18, 2024. The main interventions carried out are the 4-7-8 breathing technique, and the study tool is the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire. The data analysis method used was the Wilcoxon statistical test. Results: There is a decrease from 13.33 (pre-intervention) to 4.93 (post-intervention) for the mean score of the breathing exercise 4-7-8. There is a significant influence between influence of the 4-7-8 breathing exercise on improving sleep quality in COPD patients (P=0.001). Conclusion: There is a significant effect of breathing exercise 4-7-8 on improving sleep quality in COPD patients.

Abstract

Background: Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis is a severe fungal infection with a high mortality rate. However, because the clinical and radiological images are non-specific and culture results take a long time and with unsatisfactory results, tests are needed with fast time and high accuracy, the diagnosis of Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis is still difficult. The objective of this study was to assess the galactomannan test as a test tool to diagnose patients with suspected invasive pulmonary aspergillosis. Methods: Articles were searched through three databases, (Pubmed, Embase, and Cochrane) using keywords based on PICO components. Next, the title and abstract were filtered and duplicated were sorted using Mendeley. Sorting was carried out according to inclusion and exclusion criteria followed by critical review using methods according to the Center of Evidence-based Medicine, University of Oxford. Results: There were three study that had quite good sensitivity values, namely with values between 71% -88% on examination with serum specimens so that this method could be used as a screening test because it produced quite good True Positive values. Likewise, the specificity results are quite good, namely 89%-98% when examining serum specimens, so this method can be used in the True Negative determination test. In the three studies there was high heterogeneity. Conclusion: The galactomannan test could be an option in examining patients with suspected invasive pulmonary aspergillosis with the aim of making a diagnosis more quickly so that patients can receive antifungal treatment more quickly and precisely. Keywords: Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis, galactomannan, diagnosis.

Abstract

One of the oldest infectious illnesses, tuberculosis (TB) continues to be a serious global health concern. With an estimated 1.060.000 cases, Indonesia is the second-largest provider of tuberculosis cases worldwide after India. According to the Ministry of Health in 2024, 12.531 cases were MDR-TB/RR-TB. This number has increased compared to 2021, which was 7.876 cases. Resistance may occur primarily or secondarily. Primary resistance is caused by infection with a drug-resistant strain, while secondary resistance occurs during the treatment process. Secondary resistance is divided into intrinsic and acquired. In intrinsic resistance, infection is caused by TB germs that have evolved, causing resistance through several mechanisms, namely reducing cell membrane permeability, drug reflux, degradation and target modification, while acquired resistance is caused by chromosomal mutations in target genes during the treatment process. The immunological mechanism that play a role in the occurrence of resistance will be discussed in this literature review.
