Abstract

Background: Patients with severe COVID-19 always have a high mortality rate, while inflammatory immunity to COVID-19 infection such as the Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) reflects the progress of the infection. It is used by clinicians as an early identification of high-risk patients or to determine the seriousness of the disease. This study aims to determine whether there is a relationship between the ratio value and COVID-19 infection. Objective: To find out whether there is a relationship between NLR values and COVID-19 infection. Method : The research design used was a cross-sectional observational analytic study. In this study using medical record data as much as 100. Result : A total of `100 medical record data of COVID-19 patients for the 2020 period were collected, of which the largest age group was 36-45 with 21 people (21.0%), and based on gender group where the number of men was 61 people (61.0%). However, in this study there was no relationship between an increase in RNL and COVID-19 (P = 0.504, PR = 1.138).

Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a collection of metabolic diseases caused by impaired insulin secretion, insulin action, or both so that it has the characteristics of hyperglycemia. In patients with type 2 diabetes with obesity, there can be an increase in fatty acids or Free Fatty Acid in cells. Increased will cause a decrease in glucose delivery to the plasma membrane, resulting in insulin resistance in muscle and adipose tissue Objective: To determine the relationship between HbA1c in Type 2 Diabetes Patients with Obesity and Without Obesity in Dr. Hospital. Pirngadi Medan City Methods: This research was conducted by analytical observation with an approach using a cross sectional design that is only temporary or to see the relationship between HbA1c in Type-2 Diabetes Patients with Obesity and Without Obesity. Pirngadi Medan City. Total sampling technique is a sampling method where all samples are taken and meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: From the results of this study, there is a relationship between HbA1c in Type-2 Diabetes Patients with Obesity and Without Obesity in Dr. Hospital. Pirngadi Medan City (p=0.01). Conclusion: The occurrence of excessive fat accumulation in the body of obese patients can lead to insulin resistance which affects blood sugar levels which causes diabetes mellitus.

Abstract

Background : Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a new type of Coronavirus that is transmitted to humans that attacks the respiratory system and manifests as inflammation of the lung parenchyma. CT-Scan can be used as an alternative diagnostic measure to find out the radiological picture of COVID-19 patients. Neutrophils are present in many acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)-associated lung diseases, as influenza virus and SARS-CoV-1 infection. Neutrophil activation and degranulation occur in SARS infection. The immune response that occurs in COVID-19 patients with severe clinical trials can be found in lower lymphocyte counts. Decreases in helper T cells, suppressor T cells, and regulatory T cells are found in patients with COVID-19, with higher levels of T helper and regulatory T cells. low in severe cases. Research Objectives: To find out whether there is a relationship between CT-Scan Lung images and Lymphocyte and Neutrophil Levels in SARS-CoV-2 Patients, Research Methods: The type of research carried out is observational analytic measurement, with a cross sectional design the researcher makes observations or measurements of variables at certain times. Results: The frequency distribution on CT-Scan images of the lungs of SARS-CoV-2 patients was found to be the most GGO accompanied by infiltrates with a frequency of 22 people (38.6%) and the frequency distribution of Lymphocyte and Neutrophil levels in SARS-CoV-2 patients. The highest number of lymphocytes in patients with SARS-CoV-2 was normal with a frequency of 27 people (47.4%) and Neutrophil levels increased with a frequency of 24 people (42.1%). In the analysis there was a significant relationship between CT-Scan images of the lungs and lymphocyte levels, p-values = 0.013 and in Neutrophils with CT-Scan images of lungs of SARS-CoV-2 patients, there was no significant relationship with p-values = 0.092 Conclusion:There is a relationship between the CT-Scan images of the lungs of SARS-CoV-2 patients and the levels of lymphocytes and there is no relationship between the CT-Scan images of the lungs of SARS-CoV-2 patients and the levels of neutrophils in the body.

Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease in which there is an inappropriate increase in blood glucose levels. DM disease is very susceptible to pathogens so that it becomes a risk factor for morbidity and mortality of various viral infections so that it can be linked between comorbid DMT2 and Covid-19. Methods: Results Based on the research, the Covid-19 patients with comorbid DMT2 disease were 56 samples from 56 people (100.0%). these patients aged 50-60 years as many as 37 people (66.1%). In terms of gender, it was found that the majority of the research sample were women as many as 31 people (55.4%). The relationship between DMT2 patients based on age with the incidence of Covid-19 using the Chi-Square test obtained a P value = 0.006 (< P = 0.05), there is a significant relationship between age in T2DM patients and the incidence of Covid-19. DMT2 patients based on gender with the incidence of Covid-19 from the Chi-Square test results obtained a P value = 0.013 (< P = 0.05), there is a significant relationship between gender and T2DM with the incidence of Covid-19. Results: Majority of the study samples who experienced type 2+ Covid-19 DM were aged > 30 years, namely 30 people (52.5%). The majority of the study samples with appendicitis were men, as many as 36 people (63.2%). The majority of the study samples experienced type 2 DM + Covid-19, namely 51 people (77.5%). Conclusion: Age has a significant relationship with the incidence of type 2+Covid-19 DM, where the older you get, the greater the risk of type 2+ Covid-19 DM (p=0.006 <0.05). Gender has a significant relationship with the incidence of type 2 DM + Covid-19, where men are more at risk of experiencing the incidence of type 2 DM + Covid-19 than women (p = 0.013 < 0.05).
