Abstract

Hypertension is when a person experiences increased blood pressure on tissue and organ perfusion. One complication that can be caused by hypertension is kidney failure. Urea and creatinine are waste products of the body's metabolism. Ureum and creatinine levels will increase, indicating impaired kidney function. Damage that occurs to the kidneys must be treated one way with hemodialysis. The function of hemodialysis therapy is to reduce urea and creatinine levels in patients with chronic kidney failure.The study's general objective was to analyze urea and creatinine levels in hypertensive patients with chronic kidney failure undergoing hemodialysis therapy at dr. Abdul Aziz Singkawang General Hospital. The research design is analytically observational with a cross-sectional research design. Secondary data in this study were obtained from medical records and laboratory results of hypertensive patients with chronic kidney failure undergoing hemodialysis therapy without complications of DM, namely 37 respondents who performed urea and creatinine examinations before and after hemodialysis at dr. Abdul Aziz Singkawang by using a purposive sampling technique.The results of the study found 64 hypertensive patients undergoing hemodialysis and obtained a sample of 37 patients who met the criteria, namely hypertensive patients undergoing hemodialysis without complications of DM got an average urea level before hemodialysis 187.1919 mg/dl and after hemodialysis 136.0162 mg/dl. The intermediate creatinine level before hemodialysis was 14.0870 mg/dl and 11.0224 mg/dl after hemodialysis.The results of the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. They obtained p-value = 0.000 <α (0.05), which indicated differences in urea and creatinine levels before and after hemodialysis therapy in hypertensive patients with chronic kidney failure.

Abstract

Currently, when the prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) is high and predicted to continue to increase, the elimination of tuberculosis (TB) in Indonesia has not been successful. The challenge is greater due to the comorbidity of both diseases and the complexity of the relationship between the two that is not yet well understood. Therefore, studies on DM-TB comorbidity in various populations are still needed. This study aims to determine the difference in the proportion of positive acid-fast bacillus (AFB) sputum between groups of controlled DM patients (HbA1c <6.5%) and uncontrolled (HbA1c ≥6.5%). The design of this study is cross-sectional, using secondary data (medical records) of 126 DM patients at the Persahabatan Hospital, Jakarta, who underwent examinations in January-June 2024. The results showed that the proportion of positive AFB sputum in the uncontrolled DM patient group was 41.3 percent and in the controlled group was 11.1 percent (based on the Chi-Square test, p-value <0.0001). In addition, the uncontrolled DM patient group had a median (youngest-oldest) age of 55 (37-74) years, while the controlled DM group was 50 (32-70) years (based on the Mann-Whitney test, p-value 0.036). This study shows that the uncontrolled DM patient group had a higher proportion of positive BTA sputum and was significantly older than the controlled DM patient group.

Abstract

Palembang City is a major urban center located on the island of Sumatra that has experienced substantial growth and development. The rapid increase in population and industrial activity has led to widespread contamination of water, food, and beverages with heavy metals. This is worsened by other variables, including smoking habits and work-related issues. At now, there is a limited number of papers that examine blood as a biomarker for lead contamination, particularly in Palembang City. These articles mostly focus on study participants that are very likely to be exposed, such as drivers. The objective of this study was to evaluate the blood lead levels in a cohort of drivers in Palembang City as an indicator of lead pollution. The participants in this study were drivers, with an average age of 58 years, who had accumulated more than 20 years of work experience (average 28 years). Utilizing the APHA technique, quantifying blood lead concentrations, and employing the impedance method and Spearman test to establish a correlation between the results, evaluating hemoglobin and hematocrit levels. The research findings indicate a correlation between blood lead levels and hemoglobin values (significance: 0.037) as well as hematocrit (significance: 0.039). The mean blood lead concentrations in drivers remain below the threshold of 14.9804 µg/L. The investigation conducted indicates a clear association between the levels of lead in the blood and the values of hemoglobin and hematocrit in the blood of drivers in Palembang City. A strong association was seen between blood lead levels and hemoglobin and hematocrit values
