Abstract

To describe Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) Score parameters which have a great impact in the condition of sepsis in Corona Virus Disease-19 (COVID-19) patients and comorbidities that aggravate the patient's condition, we conducted a prospective cohort study in adult patients with sepsis and confirmed COVID-19 cases. We conducted a prospective cohort study in confirmed COVID-19 patients with sepsis who were admitted at Saiful Anwar Hospital Malang at March 10th–April 21st 2020. Diagnosis of sepsis is based on the Surviving Sepsis Campaign-III criteria. We found 6 COVID-19 confirmed patients with sepsis. There is an increased respiratory parameter in SOFA Score in these patients. Therefore, respiratory parameter of the SOFA score has a great impact in determining sepsis condition among confirmed COVID-19 patients. Keywords: COVID-19, Sepsis, SOFA Score

Abstract

Background and Objective:COVID–19 is a newly emerging disease and considered an emergency health problem, worldwide.It has a wide range of clinical features, from mild fever to severe respiratory failure that leads to a higher mortality rate. Previous studies state that CRPhas a very strong positive correlation with the diameter of the lung lesion, and in intensive care patients had a higher level of LDH. This study aims to determine the correlation between CRP, LDH and disease severity and mortality in hospitalized COVID-19 patients. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort, a single-center study including 69 laboratory-confirmed patients in our hospital in Malang City, Indonesia from April - June 2020. Result: Subjects consisted of 26 patients (37.7%) in the mild-moderate group and 43 patients in severe group (62.3%).Statistical analysis showed CRP and LDH associated with disease severity (p=0.011 and p<0.001). Analysis of CRPand LDH in survivor and non-survivior group showed that CRP and LDH also asscociated with mortality in hospitalized COVID-19 patients (p=0.034 and 0.002). We also evaluate CRP and LDH with degrees of hypoxemia by assessed P/F ratio. Statistical analysis showed that CRP did not correlate with degrees of hypoxemia (p=0.079) but LDH inverse correlate with degrees of hypoxemia (p<0.001, pearson correlation = -0,489) Conclusion: In our retrospective cohort study demonstrated LDH and CRP can be a crucial indicator to predict severity and mortality for hospitalized COVID-19 patients and LDH may usefull test for predict early identification of patients who become respiratory failure or ARDS. Keywords: COVID-19, LDH, CRP, P/F Ratio

Abstract

Latar belakang: Glioblastoma (GBM) berhubungan dengan peningkatan hiperkoagulabilitas dan peningkatan risiko dari venous thromboembolism (VTE) (termasuk Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)). VTE merupakan komplikasi kardiovaskular atau respirasi yang sering ditemukan pada pasien-pasien yang dirawat inap karena COVID-19. Hubungan mengenai VTE pada kasus GBM dan COVID-19 belum pernah dibahas sebelumnya. Laporan kasus ini akan membahas tentang seorang wanita usia 55 tahun dengan GBM dan DVT dengan hasil PCR SARS-CoV-2 positif yang dirawat di RSUP Dr. Kariadi. Laporan kasus: Wanita 55 tahun datang ke rumah sakit dengan nyeri kepala dan nyeri serta bengkak pada tungkai kanan. Pada pemeriksaan laboratorium didapatkan INR 0.92, D-Dimer kuantitatif 46540 ug/L, dan titer fibrinogen kuantitatif 234 mg/dL. Dari USG vena doppler tungkai kanan didapatkan gambaran DVT sepanjang vena tungkai kanan, pada pemeriksaan MRI kepala dan biopsi tumor sesuai dengan gambaran GBM, hasil pemeriksaan foto rontgen thoraks terjadi perburukan gambaran paru, serta pemeriksaan PCR SARS-CoV-2 positif. Pembahasan: Pada pasien ini, kondisi GBM dapat menyebabkan adanya kondisi hiperkoagulabilitas akibat neoangiogenesis, mutase onkogenik, dan aktivitas kronik kaskade koagulasi. Selain itu, infeksi dan inflamasi yang berat berkontribusi dalam berkembangnya DVT, seperti yang ditemukan pada pasien dengan COVID-19 yang parah. Pada pasien rawat inap dengan COVID-19, prevalensi DVT tinggi dan biasanya memiliki outcome yang buruk. Istilah COVID-19 associated coagulopathy (CAC) digunakan untuk menggambarkan perubahan koagulasi pada pasien yang terinfeksi COVID. Simpulan: Peningkatan risiko DVT pada pasien dengan glioblastoma dan infeksi COVID-19 disebabkan hiperkoagulabilitas dan koagulopati akibat sel tumor dan virus SARS-CoV-2. Kata Kunci: glioblastoma, DVT, COVID-19 Introduction: GBM is associated with increased of hypercoagulability and the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) (include Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)). VTE is a cardiovascular or respiratory complication that is often found in patients with COVID-19. The relationship of VTE in GBM and COVID-19 has not been discussed before. This case report will discuss a 55-year-old woman with GBM and DVT with a positive SARS-CoV-2 treated at Dr. Kariadi Hospital. Case presentation: A 55-year-old woman came to the hospital with cephalgia, pain and redness in the right leg. On laboratory examination, it was obtained INR 0.92, quantitative D-Dimer 46540 ug/L, and quantitative fibrinogen titer 234 mg/dL. Venous doppler USG of right leg showed the imaging of DVT along the venous system in right leg. Head MRI and tumor biopsy showed the imaging of GBM, on the chest X-ray examination showed the deterioration of the lung damage, and positive SARS-CoV-2 with PCR examination. Discusssion: GBM can cause hypercoagulability due to neoangiogenesis, oncogenic mutation, and chronic coagulation cascade activity. In addition, severe infection and inflammation contribute to the development of DVT, as found in patients with severe COVID-19. In hospitalized patients with COVID-19, the prevalence of DVT is high and usually has a poor outcome. The term COVID-19 associated coagulopathy (CAC) is used to describe changes in coagulation in patients infected with COVID-19. Conclusion: Increased risk of DVT in GBM and COVID-19 is because of hypercoagulability and coagulopathy due to tumor cells and SARS-CoV-2 virus. Keywords: glioblastoma, DVT, COVID-19

Abstract

Pendahuluan SARS-CoV-2 merupakan virus RNA yang terutama menginfeksi sel-sel pada saluran napas pelapis alveoli. Virus SARS-CoV-2 yang terhirup mengikat sel epitel di rongga hidung dan mulai bereplikasi. Virus ini menyebar serta bermigrasi ke saluran pernapasan, memicu respons imun bawaan dan pada akhirnya berkembang menjadi Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). Gambaran ground glass infiltrates dapat terdeteksi pada pencitraan toraks. Pemeriksaan X-ray toraks dan MSCT toraks memegang peranan penting dalam deteksi dan follow up COVID-19. Metode dan Bahan Laporan kasus 2 pasien laki-laki yang terkonfirmasi COVID-19 umur 43 tahun dan 48 tahun dengan keluhan utama sesak napas, batuk dan demam. Pasien pertama mempunyai riwayat perjalanan ke Amerika Serikat 3 minggu sebelum masuk rumah sakit, sedangkan pasien kedua mempunyai riwayat kontak dengan pasien terkonfirmasi COVID-19. Pada pemeriksaan X-ray toraks kedua pasien menunjukkan gambaran konsolidasi disertai air bronchogram pada lapangan paru bilateral yang tampak dominan pada perifer. Berdasarkan pedoman Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) terdahulu, evaluasi dapat dilakukan 2 bulan dan 6 bulan setelah terinfeksi. Dua bulan setelah terinfeksi COVID-19 dilakukan pemeriksaan HRCT toraks dengan hasil normal. Kesimpulan Lesi berupa konsolidasi disertai air bronchogram dengan distribusi yang dominan pada perifer merupakan gambaran radiologis yang khas pada pasien Covid-19 seperti yang ditemukan pada kedua kasus yang dipaparkan dalam artikel ini. Evaluasi sequele dengan pemeriksaan HRCT yang dilakukan 2 bulan pasca penyembuhan menunjukkan gambaran paru paru yang normal, tidak ada infiltrat maupun fibrosis pada kedua pasien tersebut. Kata kunci X-ray toraks, konsolidasi, air bronchogram, COVID-19 Introduction SARS-CoV-2 is an RNA virus that mainly infects cells in the alveoli lining airways. The inhaled virus binds to epithelial cells in the nasal cavity then begins to replicate. This virus spreads, migrates to the respiratory tract, triggering an innate immune response, and develop to Acute Respiratory Syndrome. The ground-glass opacities can be detected in thoracic imaging eventually. Chest X-ray and CT-scan have an important role in the detection and follow-up of COVID-19. Materials and Methods The case report of 2 male patients confirmed COVID-19 aged 43 years and 48 years with major complaints of shortness of breath, coughing, and fever. The first patient had a history of raveling to the United States 3 weeks before hospitalization, while the second patient had a history of contact with a confirmed COVID-19 patient. On chest X-ray examination, both patients showed multiple consolidation with air bronchogram in bilateral lung field which appeared dominant in the periphery. According to the previous Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) guideline, evaluation for patients can be done in two months and six months after firstly infected. Two months after COVID-19 infection, a chest HRCT examination was performed with normal results. Conclusion Consolidation with air bronchogram which dominantly seen in peripheral distribution is a typical radiological picture in COVID-19 patients as found in two cases described in this article. Sequelae evaluation with chest HRCT conducted 2 months after healing showed normal lung appearance with no sign of infiltrates or fibrosis seen in both patients. Keywords: Chest X-ray, consolidation, air bronchogram, COVID-19

Abstract

LATAR BELAKANG: Kondisi pandemi, kasus Covid-19 semakin meningkat, manifestasi klinis seperti demam, batuk, diare, muntah, sakit kepala, mialgia dan kelelahan, mungkin sulit untuk membedakan COVID-19 dari spektrum penyakit dengan manifestasi serupa, seperti malaria dan cacingan, terutama di daerah endemik. Di Indonesia belum ada artikel yang membahas Covid-19 dengan koinfeksi malaria dan cacing. TUJUAN: Tujuan penulisan ini adalah menelaah dampak klinis infeksi Covid-19 dengan komorbid infeksi parasit yaitu malaria dan kecacingan. METODE: Penelusuran kepustakaan 154 jurnal, terdapat 4 jurnal yang relevan. DISKUSI: Manifestasi klinis malaria yang parah terjadi karena respon proinflamasi yang meningkat, hal yang sama terjadi dalam banyak kasus COVID-19. Koinfeksi Malaria dan COVID-19 dapat menyebabkan respons pro-inflamasi yang berlebihan, manifestasi klinis lebih parah dan prognosis buruk. Berdasarkan imunopatogenitas dari infeksi cacing di daerah endemis, dikhawatirkan hal tersebut akan meningkatkan keparahan gejala Covid-19 pada pasien dengan koinfeksi cacing. KESIMPULAN: Pada kasus Covid-19 yang diikuti dengan koinfeksi malaria menunjukkan keparahan manifestasi klinis akibat peningkatan respon inflamasi. Diduga bahwa respon imun hospes terhadap cacing akan memberikan dampak klinis yang lebih berat pada kasus Covid-19. Kata kunci: Covid-19, koinfeksi, malaria, cacingan, penyakit parasit BACKGROUND: The condition of the Covid-19 pandemic where the number of cases is increasing. Clinical manifestations such as fever, cough, diarrhea, vomiting, headache, myalgia and fatigue, it may be difficult to distinguish COVID-19 from the spectrum of diseases with similar manifestations, such as malaria and intestinal worms, especially in endemic areas. Indonesia there are no articles discussing Covid-19 with malaria and worm coinfection. OBJECTIVE: The purpose this article is to review the clinical impact of Covid-19 infection with comorbid parasitic infections, in this case malaria and worms. METHOD: Search the literature of 154 journals, there are 4 journals that are relevant DISCUSSION: The severe manifestations of malaria occur because of an increased proinflammatory response, the same thing happens in many cases of COVID-19. Malaria coinfection and COVID-19 can then cause excessive pro-inflammatory responses, severe manifestations and a poor prognosis. In addition, based on immunopathogenicity from worm infections in endemic areas, it is feared that this will increase the severity of Covid-19 symptoms in patients with worm co-infection. CONCLUSION: In the case of Covid-19 followed by co-infection with malaria, it shows the severity of clinical manifestations due to increased inflammatory response. Tobe assumed that the host's immune response to worms will have a more severe clinical impact in the Covid-19 case. Keywords: Covid-19, coinfection, malaria, intestinal worms, parasitic diseases

Abstract

Latar Belakang : Paparan sinar matahari pada kulit merupakan cara terbaik untuk sintesis vitamin D. Kadar vitamin D yang adekuat dalam tubuh merupakan proteksi terhadap berbagai penyakit seperti penyakit degeneratif, kanker dan juga infeksi saluran napas. Beberapa penelitian menghubungkan kadar vitamin D yang rendah dengan morbiditas dan mortalitas COVID-19. Hal ini menyebabkan fenomena baru pada masyarakat yaitu kebiasaan berjemur. Tujuan : Artikel ini akan membahas tentang metabolisme vitamin D, peran sinar matahari dalam mengaktifkan vitamin D di dalam tubuh, dan peran vitamin D dalam berbagai penyakit, khususnya mekanisme imunitas untuk COVID-19. Diskusi : Vitamin D meningkatkan kekebalan alami seluler terutama dengan cara menginduksi peptida antimikroba, yang meliputi cathelicidin, LL-37, 1,25-dihdroxyvitamin D dan defensins. Selain itu vitamin D akan meningkatkan sekresi hidrogen peroksida pada sel monosit. Pemberian vitamin D dosis tinggi sebanyak 10.000 IU/hari selama beberapa minggu dilanjutkan 5000 IU/hari bermanfaat untuk mencegah COVID-19, walaupun hasilnya masih memerlukan penelitian lebih lanjut. Absorpsi sinar matahari ke dalam tubuh manusia dipengaruhi oleh warna kulit, penggunaan bahan pakaian dan tabir surya , dan luas pajanan. Paparan sinar matahari sebesar satu Minimal Erythemal Dose (MED) pada orang dewasa dapat meningkatkan konsentrasi vitamin D setara dengan suplementasi 10.000 – 25.000 IU. Penelitian pada bayi yang diberi paparan 3 kali seminggu @ 5 menit pada jam 10.00-14.00, dengan paparan 50% area tubuh selama 2 bulan, mendapatkan kenaikan 25(OH)D sebesar 8,9 ng/mL. Simpulan : Vitamin D yang diaktifkan oleh paparan sinar matahari sangat bermanfaat sebagai proteksi berbagai penyakit termasuk juga pada COVID-19, walaupun efektifitasnya masih memerlukan penelitian lebih lanjut. Kata Kunci : COVID-19, vitamin D, paparan sinar matahari Background : The exposured of sunlight on the skin is the best way for vitamin D synthesis. Adequate vitamin D levels are protection against various diseases such as degenerative diseases, cancer and also respiratory infections. Several studies have linked between low vitamin D levels with COVID-19 morbidity and mortality. This causes a new phenomenon in the community, namely sunbathing. Purpose : This review rearticle will discuss about vitamin D metabolism, the role of sunlight in activating vitamin D in the body, and the role of vitamin D in various diseases, specifically the immune mechanism for COVID-19.Discussion : Vitamin D increases cellular innate immunity mainly by inducing antimicrobial peptides, which include cathelicidin, LL-37, 1,25-dihdroxyvitamin D and defensins, and also increase the secretion of hydrogen peroxide in monocyte cells. The administration of high-dose vitamin D of 10,000 IU / day for several weeks followed by 5000 IU / day is useful to prevent COVID-19, although the results still require further research. The sun exposure to activated vitamin D body is affected by skin color, using of clothing and sunscreen, and area of ??exposure. Sun exposure of one Minimum Erythemal Dose (MED) in adults can increase vitamin D concentrations equivalent to 10,000 - 25,000 IU vitamin D supplementation. Study on infants who were given exposure 3 times a week @ 5 minutes at 10:00 to 14:00, with exposure 50% of body surface area for 2 months, increased 25(OH)D of 8.9 ng/mL. Conclusion : Vitamin D which is activated by sun exposure is very useful as protection for various diseases including COVID-19, although its effectiveness still requires further research. Keywords : vitamin D, sun exposure, COVID-19.
