Abstract

Background: Nowadays, there are still many malnourished patients during hospitalization, which comprises around 45-50% patients. Malnutrition is related to increased mortality and morbidity rate; therefore, nutritional state should be assessed in hospitalized patients. Total lymphocyte count (TLC) is related to decreased body function in malnutrition and it is a means of nutritional assessment. Until now, there is no data showing association between malnutrition and TLC in hospitalized patients in Indonesia. The objective of this study was to identify the association between malnutrition and TLC 1,200 cell/mm3 in hospitalized patients. Method: This study was a cross-sectional study. Subjects were new patients hospitalized at internal medicine ward of Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. Patients were collected by consecutive sampling. We conducted the study between April and May 2008. Fifty four patients were assessed for malnutrition by the subjective global assessment (SGA) and they also had undergone complete blood count. TLC was numbered with routine complete blood count test. Patients were classified into malnutrition according to SGA. TLC was classified with cut-off point of 1,200 cell/mm3. Statistical analysis included Chi-square test, which was used to compare proportion. Results: There were 52% malnourished patients, 33% patients with TLC 1,200 cell/mm3, 57% patients with malnutrition and TLC 1,200 cell/mm3. This study showed that there was an association between malnutrition and TLC 1,200 cell/mm3 (p = 0.001). Moreover, there was also significant association between severe malnutrition (SGA C) with TLC 900 cell/mm3 (p = 0.02). Conclusion: There is an association between malnutrition and TLC 1,200 cell/mm3.   Keywords: malnutrition, total lymphocyte count, body mass index, subjective global assessment

Abstract

Gastric outlet obstruction is a rare complication of peptic ulcer disease, resulting from acute or chronic inflammatory changes. Patient may present asymptomatic or may have mild gastrointestinal symptoms. Some complications may include indirect systemic disorders such as water, acid-base, and electrolyte imbalance, which could be fatal. Acute management should include gastric decompression, correction of water and electrolytes abnormalities, as well as reduction of spasm and edema by using acid-supressants. After the patient has been stabilized, more definite measures should be taken such as endoscopic dilatation or surgery and treatment of peptic ulcer itself. Nowadays, endoscopic dilatation has been performed by using through-the-scope balloon dilating catheters. The diameter of balloon is usually increased gradually over several sessions. Long-term recurrence after endoscopic baloon dilatation has been reportedly low. Keywords: peptic ulcer, gastric outlet obstruction, endoscopic baloon dilatation

Abstract

Background: Candida esophagitis is a common abnormality found on esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) procedure in patients with recognizable risk factors. However, the finding is frequently incidental as most of them are asymptomatic. There has been no study on the characteristics of Candida esophagitis in Indonesia. The aim of this study was to describe the degree of Candida esophagitis and its characteristics in patients who underwent EGD procedure at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. Method: A retrospective study was conducted on all EGD procedures at the Gastroenterology Procedure Room, Internal Medicine Department, Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, between January 2007 and December 2009 with a total of 2,311 samples. The study was carried out by visually examining all endoscopic procedures and grading them according to the Kodsi severity grading (1976), and evaluating medical records. Data analysis was performed using Microsoft Excel 2007. Results: During the study period, Candida esophagitis was found in 2.6% patients with predominant male (68.9%) and the average age was 49.8 ± 15 years. The chief complaints found were dyspepsia (34.4%), melena (21.3%) and dysphagia (4.9%) and 32.8% patients were asymptomatic. The most frequent risk factors were age ≥ 60 years old (28.3%), proton pump inhibitor or H2 receptor antagonist user (26.4%), and antibiotics (17.0%). Grade II Kodsi candidiasis was the most prevalent degree in this study (44.3%). Conclusion: Candida esophagitis was one frequent finding in endoscopy based on the complaint of dyspepsia in patients with certain risk factors. However, the results of this study still need further validation in prospective studies. Keywords: Candida esophagitis, esophagogastroduodenoscopy, risk factors, grading

Abstract

Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) is the main pathogen causing antibiotics associated diarrhea and colitis. This bacterium increases with hospitalization with incidence of 20-60 cases per 100,000 patients/day. C. difficile is gram positive bacilli which produce toxins in 2,700 cases in every 100,000 exposures to particular antibiotics, such as clindamycin, cephalosporin, and ampicillin. These antibiotics disrupt the intestinal normal flora and predispose to colonization of C. difficile. This case described a 53-year old male patient with squamous cell carcinoma in his left ear who came to Department of Internal Medicine, Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, with the complain of diarrhea since two weeks after one month hospitalization in Department of Ear, Nose, and Throat. The characteristics of the diarrhea were 10 times per day ± 100 mL, watery consistency, green yellowish in color, and no blood in the feces. Additionally, the patient also complained of pain in all parts of his stomach, especially in the epigastric area. Earlier, patient was given ceftazidime for 30 days of hospitalization. The serology examination of C. difficile in the feces showed positive result (titer = 0.790 and control = 0.190). During the colonoscopy examination, pancolitis was found and the pathologic anatomy result was found appropriate for infective colitis. Thereafter, antibiotic administration was ceased and metronidazole was administered intravenously three times a day. The diarrhea stopped after seven days and the patient was discharged. Keywords: Clostridium difficile, nosocomial diarrhea, malignancy

Abstract

Background: Zinc may affect the intestinal immune response. No data has been available on zinc deficiency in adult patients with diarrhea, especially for Indonesian population. Zinc metabolism, etiologies, pathogenesis and clinical course of diarrhea may have various effects on zinc concentration in different population. This study aimed to determine the proportion of zinc deficiency in patients with acute diarrhea, including its associated factors. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted in patients with acute diarrhea at outpatient clinics and emergency wards of four hospitals between August 2010 and March 2011. A serum zinc concentration of 10.7 µmol/L was set as cut-off value for zinc deficiency. Data was analyzed by using Chi-square test. Results: There were 101 subjects, 54.5% were female, the median age was 26 years, median duration of acute diarrhea was 5 days, and the median frequency was 6 times/day. About 95% patients had nutritional status of subjective global assessment (SGA) A and the mean value of body mass index was 19.3 ± 0.70 kg/m2. Approximately 88.1% patients had severe infective diarrhea based on hydration status. About 69.3% patients were zinc deficient with the mean serum zinc concentration of 9.26 ± 2.95 µ mol/L. We found a significant correlation between the severity of diarrhea and zinc deficiency in patients with acute diarrhea. Conclusion: The proportion of zinc deficiency in acute diarrhea patients was quite large although the mean serum zinc level was still below the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) reference value. The severity of diarrhea has been proven to be significant that affects zinc deficiency in acute diarrhea patients. Keywords: zinc deficiency, acute diarrhea, adult

Abstract

Background: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) gastropathy is a common complication, which has characteristic symptoms of dyspepsia syndrome. Mostly, it includes epigastric discomfort with bloating and nausea. The aim of this study was to provide evidences that clinical symptoms of dyspepsia are related to macroscopic changes of gastric form in rats, which are expected to be applied in human. Method: The study was conducted in 20 white rats (Rattus norvegicus, Sprague-Dawley strain) at the Department of Pathology and Clinical Reproduction, Bogor Agricultural University between January and December 2008. The rats were divided to treatment group and control group and each group consisted of 10 rats. Acetyl salicylic acid (ASA/aspirin) was administered at 400 mg dose, diluted in distilled water and was given to the treatment group using gastric cannula, once daily for three days period; while the control group had received aquabidest only. Subsequently, necropsies were conducted for both groups, followed by macroscopic observation and measurement of sagittal and transversal diameter. Gastric incisions along the minor curvature were performed in both groups to recognize any macroscopic changes of gastric mucosa. ANOVA test was utilized for data analysis, which was followed by Duncan test when the results were significant. Results: Gastric diameters in treatment group with positive lesion were significantly different from the control group and the treatment group with negative lesion on anthrum/pylorus region, with p 0.05. Conclusion: Prominent gastric dilatation at anthrum/pylorus region found in the treatment group may become the initial cause and signs of dyspepsia in human. Keywords: NSAID gastropathy, dyspepsia, NSAIDs/aspirin, gastric dilatation

Abstract

Liver test abnormalities are commonly found in ambulatory patients. The liver function tests are routinely included in chemistry panels. According to the American Gastroenterological Association (AGA), 1-4% of the asymptomatic population may have elevated serum liver chemistry. The majority of asymptomatic patients with liver test abnormalities have no evidence of liver disease. Unfortunately, abnormal Results for liver function are often not adequately investigated, missing an important chance of identifying treatable chronic liver disease. Potential causes of liver aminotransferase elevation are originated from hepatic causes (viral hepatitis, alcohol use, medication use, steatosis and non-alcoholic steatosis hepatitis, autoimmune hepatitis, hemochromatosis, Wilson’s disease, α-antitrypsin deficiency) and non hepatic causes. In the majority patients (92%) with chronically elevated aminotransferase tests, etiologies of the liver disease could be diagnosed through close clinical approach, which includes: history taking, physical examination, and blood tests. If elevation persists after an appropriate period of observation, further testing may include ultrasonography and other serum studies. In about 8% of patients with chronic abnormal alanine aminotransferase levels no cause is found. So, if liver test abnormalities cannot be explained by other findings, liver biopsy examination can help to exclude serious liver disease or disclose the nature and severity of liver disease. Keywords: elevated liver transaminase, asymptomatic patients, chronic liver disease

Abstract

Background: Chronic gastritis is commonly found with complains of dyspepsia, which may decrease work productivity. Imbalance between agressive and defensive factors is the cause of chronic gastritis. Therapy is mostly directed to the agressive factors, particularly gastric acid and very few studies are directed on defensive factors. Mucus is the first defense mechanism of gastric mucosa. Fucoidan is a phytopharmaca, which is thought to increase the thickness of gastric mucosa. The objective of this study was to know the thickness of gastric mucosa in patients with chronic gastritis and to evaluate the effect of fucoidan to the gastric mucosa thickness in patients with chronic gastritis. Method: In this double-blinded randomized clinical trial study, 41 patients in the Endoscopy Unit Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital between October 2009 and October 2010 were enrolled consecutively. Selected patients were divided into 2 groups: a group was given fucoidan and another group was given placebo. Statistical analysis was done using T-test. Results: Of 41 chronic gastritis patients, only 34 patients completed this study. There was difference of mucus thickness of gastric mucosa in patients with chronic gastritis; in the antrum 42.59 µ m (± 8.67) and in the corpus 44.28 µ m (± 9.64). This study also showed that fucoidan administration increased the mucus thickness in the antrum by 7.42 µ m and in the corpus by 7.74 µ m compared to placebo significantly. Conclusion: Fucoidan increased the mucus thickness of gastric mucosa in patients with chronic gastritis. Keywords: mucus thickness, chronic gastritis, fucoidan

Abstract

Background: Amebiasis affects more than 50 million people each year, resulting in 100,000 deaths. Entamoeba histolytica (E. histolytica) is clearly pathogenic causing intestinal infection that varies from asymptomatic to fulminant colitis. Appropriate diagnosis and treatment of amebiasis in children is important to avoid serious complication, such as hepatic abscesses. Bloody diarrhea is a classic symptom, which is often used as screening for intestinal amebiasis. This study aimed to know the prevalence of intestinal amebiasis and other clinical and laboratory characteristics in children with bloody diarrhea who visited Harapan Kita Women and Children Hospital, Jakarta. Method: This was a retrospective descriptive study. Data was obtained by evaluating medical records at Harapan Kita Women and Children Hospital Jakarta, from January 2009 to December 2010. The data included age, sex, morphology of E. histolytica, blood hemoglobin level and leukocyte count, as well as fecal leukocytes and erythrocytes. Diagnosis was confirmed by finding trophozoites in 3 consecutive stool specimens. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS program. Results: Trophozoite forms were found in 58/889 (6.5%) children with bloody diarrhea. There were 40 (58.8%) boys, and 27 (39.7%) children were ≤ 1 years old. Fourteen (20.6%) children had anemia, 49 (72.1%) children had fecal leukocytes 10 and 51 (75%) children had fecal erythrocytes 5; however, only 21 (30.9%) children with blood leukocytes count 14,000 u/L. Conclusion: Intestinal amebiasis is common in children with bloody diarrhea, especially infants. Increased fecal leukocytes and erythrocytes are often found in intestinal amebiasis; however, blood leukocyte count may not increase. Keywords: children, intestinal tract, amebiasis
