Abstract

Background: The burden of vitamin B1 or thiamine deficiency in patients undergoing digestive surgery is quite enormous. In the field of gastroenterology, pre-colonoscopy preparation might affect thiamine level. However the burden is not well defined. This study was conducted to confirm whether there is significant decrease of blood thiamine level in post-colonoscopy compared to pre-colonoscopy group.Method: This cross-sectional study was carried out at gastrointestinal endoscopy center of Cipto Mangunkusumo National General Hospital, Jakarta from October 2018 to January 2019. The inclusion criteria were patients equal or more than 18-year-old who underwent colonoscopy. The exclusion criteria were malnutrition, history of post-gastrointestinal resection, definitive diagnosis of cancer, and chronic alcoholism.Results: The median value of blood thiamine level is 58 (20-78) for pre-colonoscopy group and 58 (25-79) for post colonoscopy group (p=0.31).Conclusion: There was no significant decrease of blood vitamin B1 level in post-colonoscopy compared to pre-colonoscopy group.

Abstract

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary hepatic malignancy worldwide and is the leading cause of death in patients with cirrhosis. In early-stage tumors, potential curative therapies have been used including ablative therapies using percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI), percutaneous acetic acid injection (PAI) or radiofrequency ablation (RFA); surgical resection and liver transplantation. RFA is more effective and safer than other local ablative therapy modalities. RFA should be considered as the first-line treatment for patients with small HCC, i.e. sized less than 5 cm; preferably less than or equal to 3 cm since they are not suitable for liver resection or liver transplantation. RFA should also be compared with transarterial embolization, which currently has been considered as the standard HCC therapy in some countries. It has been reported that the combination of RFA and embolization treatment may reduce the early and late recurrence rate. Keywords: hepatocellular carcinoma, percutaneous ethanol injection, acetic acid injection, radiofrequency ablation

Abstract

ABSTRACTBackground:Gastroesophageal reflux diseases(GERD) frequently manifests in varied symptoms other than its classics (heartburn and regurgitation), this variation might hinder its diagnostic effort. Several questionnaires based on symptoms filled by the patients themselves may help in diagnosing GERD without previous endoscopic examination. This study objects to compare endoscopic findings in patients which previously asked to fill the questionnaires (frequency scale for the symptoms of GERD (FSSG)) and GERD questionnaire (GerdQ) in pursuit of reliable and valid instrument to detect GERD before endoscopic approaches. Methods: This study was conducted in cross-sectional design involving 72 patients in Adam Malik Hospital, Medan with symptomps of upper abdominal pain or discomfort with or without heartburn/regurgitation. Subjects were asked to fill both FSSG and GerdQ and underwent endoscopy. Diagnoses made were classified as reflux esophagitis, functional dyspepsia, or other diagnoses. Subsequently we conduct a comparison analysis of both questionnaires’ specificity and accuracy using receiver operator curve (ROC) by analyzing the area below the curve. Results: According to endoscopic findings from 72 subjects, we ascertained the following results: 52.8% gastritis, antral ulcer, and esophageal hiatal hernia, 37.5% functional dyspepsia, and reflux esophagitis in 9.7% cases. GerdQ is concluded to be superior in terms of specificity and accuracy compared with FSSG with the following percentages in terms of sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and p value, respectively: 100%, 23.1%, 61.5%, 0.318 vs. 100%, 73.8%, 86.9%, 0.001. Conclusion: GerdQ is superior compared to FSSG in diagnosing GERD based on clinical symptoms in daily practice.Keywords: reflux esophagitis, GERD, FSSG, GerdQ, endoscopy, Los Angeles classification, heartburn.

Abstract

Background: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is the main cause of peptic ulcer disease, gastric mucosa metaplasia, and gastric malignancy. The hypothesis of this study is whether there’s an association between metaplasia and gastric malignancy with H. pylori infection.Method: We conducted a retrospective study on 1.127 dyspepsia subjects who performed endoscopy between 2001 to 2011 at a hospital in North Jakarta. Data is obtained based on endoscopy and histopathology data. Investigation of H. pylori in this study using histopathology examination.Results: Of the 1.127 dyspepsia subjects who performed endoscopy and biopsy, there were 130 (11,54%) H. pylori-positive subjects. Gender proportion was composed of 55,37% men and 44,63% women, with median age was 47 years. On the histopathology examination, we obtained 45 metaplasia subjects with median age of 45 years and 7 malignancy subjects with median age of 64 years. Metaplasia was found in 33 of 997 (3,31%) H. pylori-negative subjects and 12 of 130 (9.23%) H. pylori-positive subjects. All gastric malignancy subjects had H. pylori-negative results.Conclusion: There was an association between metaplasia and H. pylori infection, but no association between gastric malignancy and H. pylori infection.

Abstract

Background: There are many questionnaires that have been developed to diagnose gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), i.e. reflux disease questionnaire (RDQ), and the recently developed, gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaires (GerdQ). In this study, we tried to compare GerdQ and RDQ in terms of sensitivity and specificity to diagnose GERD and its relationship with endoscopic findings.Method: This study was a cross sectional analytical study. Subsequently, all the subjects were evaluated using the GerdQ and RDQ, then underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy examination. The severity of endoscopically observed reflux esophagitis was graded with the Los Angeles classification. All endoscopy was performed by well-trained doctor.Results: A total of 85 patients were examined, 34 (40%) patients had reflux esophagitis at endoscopy examination, including 15 (44.1%) cases of grade A, 11 (32.3%) cases of grade B, 4 (11.8%) cases of grade C, and 4 (11.8%) cases of grade D. Analysis study using sensitivity, specificity, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) test showed that GerdQ had sensitivity (49%), specificity (91%), and an area under the ROC of 0.701 (p value = 0.002). RDQ had sensitivity (24%), specificity (91%), and an area under the ROC of 0.574 (p value = 0.253). Taking 11 as the cut off point for GerdQ, a maximal sensitivity of 73.5%, specificity of 82.4%, and an area under the ROC of 0.779 was achieved.Conclusion: GerdQ and RDQ can be used to help diagnose GERD, but GerdQ is more superior than RDQ in diagnosing GERD. A multi-center study with larger samples is needed to determine the best GerdQ’s cut off point in Indonesia.

Abstract

Background: Malnutrition is found in 65-90% patients with liver cirrhosis. Malnourished patients with cirrhosis have a higher rate of complications. Aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and risk of malnutrition in liver cirrhosis patients at Koja hospital, Jakarta. Method: All liver cirrhosis patients visited Koja hospital during January - March 2009 was evaluated. An inclusion criterion was liver cirrhosis. An exclusion criterion was unable to speak Indonesia. The distributions of age, gender, body mass index (BMI), triceps skin-fold thickness (TSF), mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC), mid-arm muscle circumference (MAMC), Child Pugh classification were assessed. The criteria of malnutrition was done according to MAMC and BMI. Result: There were 38 liver cirrhosis patients fit the criteria. Twenty five  (65.8%) cases were classified as malnutrition according to MAMC, 21 (55.3%) were classified as malnutrition according to BMI. Four patients (10.5%) were Child Pugh scores A, 15 Child Pugh B (39.5%) and the rest 19 patients (50.0%) were Child Pugh C. There was a trend correlation between malnutrition according to MAMC and Child Pugh criteria but not statistically significant. Conclusion: In our study we found 65.8% of liver cirrhosis patients were malnourished according to MAMC. Malnutrition was higher in male, as well as in Child Pugh score C. MAMC is more accurate than BMI in assessing nutritional status in liver cirrhosis. Keywords: liver cirrhosis, nutritional status, MAMC, BMI, Child Pugh score

Abstract

By late December 2019, a novel beta-coronavirus, named as COVID-19 (2019-nCoV), was discovered in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China which epidemiologically linked to a Huanan seafood market in Wuhan. Coronavirus Disease 2019 or COVID-19 cases are growing rapidly from Wuhan to many countries, finding the health care system unprepared to face this threat. No effective drugs are clinically approved to manage the disease and strategies to protect the most vulnerable from developing severe illness and infection is still unclear. Information on how COVID-19 virus infection may affects many organs, especially the liver and the relevance of pre-existing liver disease in patients as a risk factor for the infection or disease severity are still scarce and inconclusive. Besides, the recommendation and consideration in liver transplant patients, hepatocellular carcinoma, or patient on immunosuppressive therapy still need further analysis Therefore, the information on the mechanism and treatment of COVID-19 related liver injury in patients with or without pre-existing liver disease should be considered.

Abstract

Tuberculosis remains to be one of the most common problems in developing countries such as Indonesia. It can involve many organs including gastrointestinal tract. Colonic tuberculosis is an ancient disease and has long been recognized. However, it is sometimes difficult to make early diagnosis due to nonspecific sign and symptoms. In endemic areas, correct diagnoses were made only 50% of the time. Without a high index of suspicion of the disease, it has been rarely diagnosed correctly. We reported a case of colonic tuberculosis in 18 years old female patient with lung tuberculosis.Endoscopic examination showed ulcerative mucosa, ‘halo lesion’, and pseudopolyp while PPD skin test, sputum smear and histopathological examination of endoscopic biopsy revealed negative for tuberculosis infection. The presence of lung tuberculosis had made high index of suspicion of colonic tuberculosis. Standard regimen of antituberculosis therapy was given and the patient showed good clinical response.   Keywords: high index suspicion, colonic tuberculosis

Abstract

Background: The inflammatory process has an important role in the pathophysiology of hepatic encephalopathy (HE) in liver cirrhosis. IL-18 is a key mediator who plays a role in neuroinflamation processes that can lead to symptoms of HE. This study aimed to determine serum IL-18 levels in liver cirrhosis patients and to assess the association of serum IL-18 levels with HE.Method: A total of 52 subjects (32 patients with liver cirrhosis and 20 healthy controls) were enrolled in this study. Thirty two (32) patients with liver cirrhosis will be assessed for HE based on West-Haven criteria. All subjects were examined for serum IL-18 levels which is measured by ELISA method. We performed a comparative analysis between serum IL-18 levels of liver cirrhosis patients and healthy controls, a correlation analysis between serum IL-18 levels and HE, and a comparative analysis of serum IL-18 levels among degrees of HE.Results: Mean serum IL-18 levels in the liver cirrhosis group were 688.5 ± 674.3 pg/mL, and in the healthy controls group were 163.9 ± 100 pg/mL with p value = 0.01 (p 0.05). There was a significant correlation between IL-18 and HE (r = 0.85; p = 0.00). Serum IL-18 levels in covert and overt HE groups were significantly higher than those without HE (p 0.05).Conclusion: Serum IL-18 levels were significantly higher in liver cirrhosis patients than in healthy controls. There was a positive correlation between IL-18 and HE. Serum IL-18 levels in liver cirrhosis patients with HE were significantly higher than those without HE.
