Abstract

Background: Coronavirus Disease-19 (COVID-19) is still a health problem worldwide, including in Indonesia. Each individual's symptoms are different and can be affected by comorbidities such as Diabetes Mellitus (DM). Diabetes Mellitus is believed to worsen the COVID-19 disease. Therefore, an RT-PCR examination and radiological examination using the Brixia Score are needed to diagnose and evaluate COVID-19 disease. Purpose: To compare thoracic radiography in patients with moderate COVID-19 with DM and without DM at Jakarta Islamic Hospital Pondok Kopi in January – December 2021 by using Brixia Score as a tool to help determine the severity and prognosis of COVID-19 patients. Methods: This study uses analytic observational research, namely, a cross-sectional approach from secondary data using medical records. Statistical test analysis using the independent t-test. Result: From 54 samples of moderate-degree COVID-19 patients at RSIJ Pondok Kopi (24 people without DM and 30 people with DM), It was found that men and women have the same number, namely 12 people (50%). The majority of Brixia scores in the group without DM is 6 – 10, as many as 12 people (50%), while in the group with DM as 11 – 15, as many as 18 people (60%). The group with DM had a higher Brixia Score than those without DM. The thoracic radiography on the lower zone of the group with DM is dominantly alveolar infiltrate. Conclusion: There is a significant difference in the Brixia score of moderate degree COVID-19 patients without DM and with DM (p<0.001).

Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This germ has a dormant phase, which causes the healing process to take a long time, thereby increasing the risk of discontinuing drug consumption in TB patients. This has resulted in resistance to several types of anti-tuberculosis drugs, one of which is Rifampicin, a first-line drug in TB treatment. Rifampicin-resistant TB (RR-TB) requires rapid and precise diagnosis and treatment, namely the PCR method using the GeneXpert tool. Purposes: To find out the clinical features of pulmonary tuberculosis patients performing TCM GeneXpert at the Jakarta Islamic Hospital Cempaka Putih in January – June 2022. Methods: This study employs a descriptive observational method, which describes a clinical feature based on secondary data (medical records) from adult pulmonary TB patients undergoing TCM at RSIJ Cempaka Putih. Results: Among patients examined by Molecular Rapid Test, 64 individuals (59.3%) were MTB-detected, and among them, 12 individuals (18.8%) had rifampicin resistance. The highest positivity value from the results of MTB-detected was MTB-Medium Detected, namely 11 people (10.2%). The most common clinical symptom in pulmonary TB patients was cough with phlegm, which was 67 people (62%), and the comorbidity that most patients suffered was diabetes mellitus, which was 21 people (19.4%). Conclusions: The frequency distribution of the Molecular Rapid Test (MRT) results showed that 59.3% of the MTB-detected cases were rifampicin-resistant, with 18.8% of the total. Cough with phlegm is the most common clinical symptom experienced by TB patients, namely 62%.

Abstract

Sinus Node Dysfunction (SND) is an arrhythmia characterized by rhythm abnormalities in the heart. The incidence of SND increases with age due to degenerative changes in the sinoatrial node. Symptoms of SND are often subtle and nonspecific, leading to diverse ECG findings. In patients with a history of coronary artery disease (CAD), post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), managing SND can be challenging. The primary treatment for SND is Permanent Pacemaker (PPM) implantation, which delivers electrical pulses to the myocardium to correct rhythm abnormalities. The results of the patient's ECG evaluation have improved, as indicated by the regular PR interval and QRS complex following PPM installation. The patient's heart rate increased by 44.7% after the PPM was inserted. In patients with SND and a history of CAD after PCI, Permanent Pacemaker (PPM) implantation plays a crucial role in managing heart rhythm abnormalities, ultimately improving the patient’s quality of life.

Abstract

Background: Despite being a preventable and curable disease, Tuberculosis (TB) is still a major global health threat and the second leading cause of death due to an infectious agent worldwide. Cigarette smoke (CS) exposure is a key risk factor for both active and latent TB. Recently, E-cigarettes became widely known as a healthy alternative to conventional smoking, although their impact on TB is not yet well understood. Purposes: The objective of this study is to compare the clinical characteristics of pulmonary tuberculosis patients among users of e-cigarettes and conventional cigarettes. Methods: This is a descriptive observational analytic study with a sectional design and a purposive sampling technique to obtain 52 samples. The clinical manifestations were assessed by interview and secondary data. The data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U-test in SPSS. Laboratory findings and other data were investigated from medical records. Result: This study found that 60.7% are conventional smokers and 39.3% are e-cigarette smokers. This study also found no significant differences in terms of treatment duration (p = 0.752), drug sensitivity test (p = 0.826), and leukocyte level (p = 0.402). Conclusion: This study deduced that tuberculotic smoker patients who smoke conventional or e-cigarettes develop the same clinical manifestation.
