Abstract

Malaria remains an important health problem in Indonesia with the highest transmission in Papua Province, an eastern part of this country. The genetic diversity of malaria parasites is the main problem in understanding several aspects of malaria infections and the dynamics of their transmission, which also play a role in the development of a vaccine. Plasmodium falciparum is the deadliest of the human malaria parasites. Plasmodium falciparum glutamate-rich protein (Pfglurp) is one of the many erythrocytic stages antigens currently under development for a vaccine. The Pfglurp gene hasbeen extensively used as a marker to investigate the genetic diversity, Multiplicity of Infection (MOI), the level of malaria transmission, immunity against malaria, as well as a discriminatory instrument to distinguish new from recrudescent infections of the field parasite population. Thus, this genotyping study aimed to find out the genetic population of P.falciparum at the Merauke District, Province of Papua, Indonesia. DNA samples were isolated from Dried Blood Spots (DBS) obtained from P.falciparum infected patients in the Regional Public Hospital of Merauke, Province of Papua, Indonesiaduring May 2019-July 2019. The isolated DNAs were then amplified for nested Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) prior to Pfglurp genotyping. The glurp gene was identified in all 51 DBS samples of P.falciparum-infected patients, and 18 variants of allele were found. Among them, 45.10% were found to bear multigenotype infections. The size of the dominant allele (12.5%) was 701-750 bp. The MOI was 1.58. The genetic population of P.falciparum in Merauke Hospital has contained a higher percentage of multigenotypes compared with monogenotypes indicating the high transmission of malaria in the studied area.

Abstract

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) plays an important role in the process of regeneration and vascular repair. Atherogenesis and angiogenesis contribute to the formation of coronary collateral circulation as an alternative source of blood supply during the repairing process of Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI). This study aimed to investigate the elevation of VEGF and its correlation to Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) and Major Adverse Cardiovascular st nd th Events (MACE). Serum VEGF measurements were carried out on 1 , 2 , and the 5 -day onset of angina on 20 patients using st th Chemwell Analyzer based on ELISA method. PBMC was counted on days 1 and 5 according to CBC results from Automatic Cell Counter Sysmex XN-1000i. The major adverse cardiovascular event was recorded 30 days after AMI onset. It was found nd that serum VEGF level in this study was 169.3±34.5 pg/mL on the 1st day, 217.0±49.7 pg/mL on the 2 day, and th th 249.2±48.5 pg/mL on the 5 day. Serum VEGF levels increased gradually and the highest value was found on the 5 day st (p=0.000). There was no correlation between elevated serum VEGF levels with PBMC on the 1 day (p=0.429, r=-0.035) and th the 5 day of AMI (p=0.225, r=+0.081). There was no correlation between elevated serum VEGF levels with incidence of MACE on 30 days after onset of AMI (OR=0.959, 95% CI, p=0.302). Serum VEGF concentrations are increased in Acute Myocardial Infarction and can be used as a marker of myocardial injury. However, this study was unable to prove its role in the outcome of AMI

Abstract

Cardiovascular disease is still a serious problem in the world of health. Life expectancy after being diagnosed with heart failure is 50% and 10% for 5 and 10 years. Steroid hormones such as Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEAS) have cardioprotective effects by inhibiting the formation of atherosclerotic plaque, pulmonary artery vasodilators, and protecting cardiomyocytes. DHEAS levels decrease with age. Decreased DHEAS levels are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. This study aimed to know the relationship between DHEAS levels in serum and ejection fractions in heart failure patients. This cross-sectional study used a sample of 34 people aged > 30 years who had been diagnosed with heart failure by a specialist in the Department of Cardiology and Vascular Medicine. The diagnosis of heart failure uses Echocardiography to determine the ejection heart fraction. DHEAS levels were taken from venous blood and examined using the CLEIA method with an IMMULITE device (Siemens Healthineers, Germany). Statistical analysis was performed by Spearman correlation test, with a significance level of p < 0.05. Thirty-four research subjects found that 13 patients had an ejection fraction of 40% (Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction/HFrEF), 12 patients had an ejection fraction of 41-49% (borderline) and 9 patients had an ejection fraction of ≥ 50% (Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction/HFpEF). Spearman correlation test results obtained a correlation coefficient or r=0.357 with a value of p=0.038, which meant there was a significant relationship between DHEAS with ejection fraction (p < 0.05). The lower the DHEAS level, the ejectionfraction would also be lower. Further with age, DHEAS levels get lower. The lower the DHEAS level, the lower the ejection fraction.

Abstract

Hypertension may lead to complications of kidneys and blood vessels. Measurement of urea, creatinine, and platelet indices can be markers of renal function and endothelial dysfunction in hypertensive patients. This study aimed to analyze the profile and correlation between renal function parameters such as urea and creatinine and platelet indices (MPV, PDW, and PCT) with blood pressure in hypertensive patients. One hundred and thirty-third hypertensive patients treated at Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital from April to July 2019 were involved in this cross-sectional study. Researchers collected demographic data, blood pressure degrees (based on ESC 2018), systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and urea, creatinine, and platelet index value (MPV, PDW, and PCT) data from the medical record. Descriptive analysis, Spearman test, Fisher exact test, and Kruskal-Wallis test were used confidence interval of 95%. A total of 133 participants were involved in this research. There were significant difference between the mean age (p=0.023), MPV (p=0.032), and PCT (p=0.019) to the degree of hypertension, while gender (p=0.185), urea (p=0.106), creatinine (p=0.498), platelet (p=0.094) and PDW (0.826) showed no significant difference. The bivariate correlation test showed that urea (rs= -0.232 p=0.007) and creatinine (rs= -0.180 p=0.038) had a positive correlation with systolic blood pressure. Platelets index, MPV (rs=0.285 p=0.001), and PDW (rs=0.179) were positively correlated to systolic blood pressure. Also, urea levels and creatinine were positively correlated with MPV value. There was an increase in MPV along with the increase of urea, creatinine. An increase in MPV could be a predictor of endothelial damage and the risk of atherothrombosis.

Abstract

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune inflammatory disease with various complications, including osteoporosis. However, Bone Mineral Density (BMD) examination, a gold standard for diagnosing and monitoring osteoporosis, is static. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is a membrane-bound glycoprotein that catalysis the hydrolysis of monoester phosphate. Osteocalcin (OC) is a non-collagenic bone protein that binds calcium and phosphate, which are both dynamic bone formation activity markers. This study analyzes the correlation between total ALP and OC serum levels in SLE patients. A cross-sectional observational analytic study was conducted in the Clinical Pathology Installation of Dr. Moewardi Hospital Surakarta in June 2020. The subjects were SLE patients receiving Methylprednisolone (MEP) therapy ≥1 year. Data distribution normality test by Saphiro-Wilk, comparative analysis with unpaired T-test, degree of correlation strength between research variables by Pearson correlation test. There were 41 female subjects, and comparative analysis of total ALP and serum OC levels were not significantly different in inactive and active SLE (ALP p=0.373, serum OC p=0.700). Total ALP and serum OC was found to have a weak positive correlation in all SLE patients (r=0.337; p=0.031), a moderate positive correlation in active SLE (r=0.426; p=0.043), while in inactive SLE there was no significant correlation (r=0.247; p=0.324). There is a significant moderate positive correlation between total ALP and serum OC in SLE patients. Total ALP and serum OC examinations are necessary for osteoporosis screening in SLE patients with > 1-year glucocorticoid (GC) therapy.

Abstract

Thalassemia major is one of the types of thalassemia that need a routine blood transfusion. If not treated immediately, the patient will only last for 1-8 months. Blood transfusions performed at least or more than 10 times causes iron overload. Excess levels of Fe ions in the body will be stored in the form of ferritin. If the ferritin level is high, cell damage will occur in the presence of a fat peroxidation reaction or Malondialdehyde (MDA). Cell damage can trigger proinflammation, which increases neutrophil counts and decreases lymphocyte counts. The Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR), which measures the ratio between Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) divided by Absolute Lymphocyte Count (ALC) with a manual peripheral blood picture. This study aimed to determine the correlation of ferritin levels with MDA and NLR in iron overload. This study used an analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach, with samples were thalassemia patients who received repeated blood transfusions at the General Hospital Dr. R Soetrasno, Rembang City and Regional General Hospital Dr. R Soedjati, Grobogan Purwodadi. Inclusion criteria were age 10-18 years, transfusion 10-20 times, normal body temperature. Exclusion criteria were Fe therapy orally, leukocytosis, chronic kidney disease. In the MDA levels, there was no significant difference where p=0.25 by Spearman test. In the NLR there was no significant difference where p=0.91 by Spearman test. There is no correlation between ferritin levels with MDA and NLR in iron overload.

Abstract

Endothelial dysfunction is a key mechanism in the pathogenesis of complications of cardiovascular disease in Diabetes Mellitus (DM) patients. One of the new biomarkers for inflammatory conditions and endothelial dysfunction is endocan. This study aimed to determine the correlation between endocan levels and HbA1c in type 1 DM patients. This study was an analytical observational study with a cross-sectional approach performed at the Dr. Saiful Anwar Hospital, Malang from May to August 2019. The research subjects were children aged 10-18 years with a diagnosis of type 1 DM who met the inclusion criteria. Students who underwent routine health checks participated as the control group. In both groups, serum endocan levels were measured using the ELISA method and HbA1c levels were measured by the HPLC method. Independent T-test analysis was used to determine the differences between both groups and the Pearson test was used to determine the correlation between serum endocan and HbA1c with SPSS version 23. In this study, there were 40 type 1 DM patients and 40 healthy controls with a mean age of 14.5 (3.16) years in the type 1 DM group and 14.7 (0.99) years in the healthy control group. There was a higher number of female subjects in both the type 1 DM group (57.5%) and the healthy control group (65%). The mean endocan level in the type 1 DM group was higher than the control group and was statistically significant with 1090.61 (150.84) pg/mL vs. 775.56 (8.91) pg/mL, p=0.000). The mean value for HbA1c levels in the type 1 DM group was also significantly higher compared to the control group 9.63 (2.22%) vs. 4.69 (0.251%), p <0.001), respectively. There was a significant positive correlation between endocan levels and HbA1c in DM patients (p=0.025, r=0.354). This study showed a correlation between serum endocan levels and HbA1c in patients with type 1 DM.

Abstract

Hepatitis B and C Viruses (HBV dan HCV) can cause acute or chronic hepatitis that may develop into fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocarcinoma. Previous studies have reported that hepatocyte damage is mainly due to overactive immune responses rather than viral infection. Cytokines are essential mediators in the immune response. This study aimed to determine the correlation between the levels of serum inhibitory cytokines, i.e., IL-4, IL-10, and TGF-β, and the development of liver disease in patients with hepatitis B and C. The levels of serum IL-4, IL-10, and TGF-β from 58 patients with hepatitis B or hepatitis C were determined by ELISA. The progression of liver disease is inferred from the levels of serum transaminases and the degree of liver fibrosis. Data were analyzed using the Spearman correlation test with a p-value of < 0.05 is considered statistically significant. This study showed no correlation between the levels of serum IL-4, IL-10, and TGF-β and the development of liver disease in patients with hepatitis B and C (p > 0.05). Therefore, cytokine testing using ELISA was unable to replace liver biopsy to assess liver disease progression in patients with hepatitis B and C.

Abstract

Coronaviruses are a family of viruses that cause illness from the common cold to severe diseases such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV). In December 2019, forty new cases of pneumonia of unknown etiology have been reported in Wuhan, China. The disease resembles Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and has been subsequently named the 2019-novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19). The antibody test is a blood test that provides quantitative and qualitative detection of IgG and IgM antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2. Reported a male, 43-year oldsuffering from DHF, but the results of an IgG and IgM rapid test were COVID-19 reactive. Also, reviewed rapid tests for COVID-19 and the results showed that only IgG was reactive. This explained that the patient already had SARS Cov-2 antibodies but was not suffering from the disease. The rapid test COVID-19 IgM result was deemed to be a false positive.

Abstract

Severe dengue virus infection often causes proteinuria through several mechanisms, such as leakage of plasma proteins caused by higher protein filtering in the kidneys. The condition of proteinuria in patients with dengue shock syndrome will affect the management, prognosis, and mortality of patients with dengue virus infection. The objectives of this study were to determine the presence of protein in urine samples in patients in which IgG/IgM dengue was detected, to determine the presence of protein in urine samples in patients without dengue infection, and to determine the relationship between proteinuria in dengue patients and the degree of disease severity. The study was conducted in March-June 2020 at the Clinical Laboratory and Inpatient Clinic of Vita Medika Kepung, Kediri Regency. The method used was the consecutive sampling technique. The minimum sample size was 100 respondents with criteria for suspected dengue infection, onset fever > 4 days, age > 2 years, and no indication of other infectious diseases (blood and urine), divided into two groups, group with positive dengue infection and non-dengue group. The results showed that proteinuria was detected in 26% of respondents, secondary dengue infection and positive serological test of IgG, IgM only IgG were detected in 24 (92.3%) respondents and positive IgG and IgM were found in 2 (7.7%) respondents, this was shown by the p-value = 0.000 in the Chi-Square test with a Prevalence Ratio (PR) value of 11,987. In addition, Chi-Square test results indicated that a higher urine protein/albumin led to more severe disease, with p-value = 0.012 and 0.025 (p <0.05) and PR values of 3.333 and 2.800. The results of this study concluded that there was a close relationship between high levels of protein/albumin in the urine with the degree of disease severity in patients with dengue infection. In addition, an increase in urine protein/albumin levels is always followed by a decrease in serum protein/albumin levels.
