Abstract

Highlight: • The diagnosis and therapy of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) children with Adrenal crisis (AC) case report. • Adrenal crisis (AC) is a life-threatening emergency that contributes to the high death rate of children with adrenal insufficiency. • The early detection and prompt treatment can improve the outcomes of patients with CAH and AC. Abstract: Adrenal crisis is the acute complication of the patient with congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a rare condition. Children with CAH commonly come to the emergency room due to acute complications. The condition has high mortality and thus needs early recognition. Newborn screening for CAH in Indonesia is not routinely performed and has not been suggested yet. The purpose of this case report was to report a case of adrenal crisis in a congenital adrenal hyperplasia patient focused on diagnosis and therapy. A female, 10 months old infant, was admitted to the emergency department with a chief complaint of a decrease of consciousness for 3 hours before admission and frequent vomiting since born. On physical examination, there was clitoromegaly. Laboratory showed 17-OH progesterone: 173 ng/dL (7-77 ng/dL) and karyotyping: 46 XX. Management of adrenal crisis is a stress dose of hydrocortisone and rehydration. Education is the key to optimal outcomes and normal growth and development.

Abstract

Highlights: • The risk estimation of ischemic heart disease. • High blood pressure and cholesterol levels affect Ischemic heart disease. Abstract: In 2018, Indonesia became the country with the second-highest number of deaths and disabilities (DALYs) due to ischemic heart disease. Based on Riskesdas data in 2018, Jakarta is one of the provinces with a high percentage (1.9%) of ischemic heart disease. Risk factors for ischemic heart disease that are not treated quickly will increase the severity of ischemic heart disease in the future. Therefore, this study was to provide education regarding the assessment of risk estimation for ischemic heart disease with WHO/ISH charts among participants in Cempaka Baru sub-district. This study used pre-test and post-test questionnaires. After the seminars, the interview and examination results were carried out as well as calculating the estimated risk of ischemic heart disease using the WHO chart. These charts were divided into low risk (<10%), moderate (10-20%), and severe (>20%). The evaluation was conducted by comparing the pre-test and post-test results, which indicated that the knowledge level increased significantly from the Paired T-Test with a p-value = 0.000 (p<0.05). The significant estimation of high risk of ischemic heart disease for high blood pressure was 72.7% (p=0.023) and total cholesterol level was 66.7% (p=0.049). The increasing knowledge of the stratification risk of ischemic heart disease with the WHO chart was expected to reduce the risk of ischemic heart disease in the future.

Abstract

Highlights: • Most urinary tract infections are caused by Gram-negative bacteria with E. coli being the most common bacteria. • Antibiotics with the highest susceptibility for Gram-negative bacteria were ertapenem, meropenem, amikacin, and imipenem. • Antibiotics with the highest susceptibility for Gram-positive bacteria mainly were susceptible to chloramphenicol,streptomycin, vancomycin, rifampin, tigecycline, teicoplanin, and ampicillin. Abstract: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common bacterial infections. Inappropriate antibiotic use for UTI treatment may lead to antibiotic resistance. This study aimed to provide an updated bacterial and antibiogram profile from urine specimens of patients diagnosed with UTI. This study was a retrospective study using urine culture and antibiotic susceptibility test results obtained from Clinical Microbiology Laboratory in a tertiary general hospital in Surabaya, Indonesia for a two-month period patients. Most aged more than and/or equal to 59 years, in both sexes. Gram-negative bacteria, particularly , was being the most between June to July 2019. There were 215 patients with significant urine culture results of 54.4% from Escherichia coli female bacteria were carbapenem antibiotics and amikacin, while teicoplanin and vancomycin were some antibiotics susceptible to gramcommon bacteria that caused UTI, followed by K. pneumoniae. Some antibiotics with the highest susceptibility to gram-negative positive bacteria. This study result indicated that there was an urge to conduct local antibiogram profile investigation due to the low susceptibilities shown in recent empirical therapy recommendations, such as trimethoprim sulfamethoxazole, fluoroquinolone, nitrofurantoin, and fosfomycin.

Abstract

Highlights • The research this for determine the presence of immune response post-vaccine • The results of this study indicate that there are differences in immune responses, in survivors patients have higher SRBD antibody levels than non-survivors Abstract : The development of a vaccine for SARS-COV-2 began in mid-2020 with the aim of stimulating an individual's immune response against SARS-CoV-2 infection. The purpose of this study was to determine the levels of post-vaccine SRBD antibody secreted in COVID-19 survivors and non-survivors. Antibodies are considered to play a more important role in evaluating immunity because antibody tests may provide information about a person's immune status against SARS-CoV-2. The study was conducted at Husada Utama Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia, in April – May 2021. The samples were taken prospectively with a total sample of 60 patients, consisting of 40 non-survivors and 20 survivors of COVID-19 who had received Sinovac vaccine doses 1 and 2. Examination of Sars-CoV-2 SRBD antibody was conducted by using CL series of Mindray device by means of CLIA method. The average level of antibody was assessed in each sample group and the results were subjected to the Mann Whitney test. The mean SRBD antibody level in female patients was 428.24 ± 271.25, while in male patients it was 310.40 ± 113.71 U/mL. The results of the Mann Whitney test revealed a P-Value of 0.09 > 0.05, indicating no difference in post-vaccine SRBD antibody levels between females and males, but there were differences in SRBD antibody levels in COVID-19 survivors and non-survivors with a P-Value of <, i.e. 0.00 < 0.05 There was no difference in post-vaccine SRBD antibody levels between females and males in COVID-19 survivors and non-survivors, but there were differences in post-vaccine antibody levels between COVID-19 survivors and non-survivors.

Abstract

Highlights: • Low levels o physical activity are the major risk factor of central obesity among Indonesian men. • There was a relationship between smoking status, smoker type, cigarette type, physical activity, and meat consumption frequency and the incidence of central obesity. Abstract: Obesity is one of the leading health problems in both developed and developing countries. Central obesity can be defined as a condition where excess fat has accumulated in the abdominal area. There are several risk factors that may cause central obesity in men such as smoking habits, physical activity, and dietary habits. This study aimed to analyse the risk factors of central obesity in Indonesian men. This was an analytical observational study using a cross-sectional design. It used secondary data from the Indonesia Family Life Survey (IFLS 5) with a sample size of 4,648 respondents. The variables studied here were smoking status, type of smoker, type of cigarette, physical activity, and meat consumption frequency. Logistic regression analysis was used. The results of this study showed that the mean age of the respondents was 51 years old. There was a relationship between smoking status (p=0.000), type of smoker (p=0.002), type of cigarette (p=0.000), physical activity (p=0.000), and meat consumption frequency (p=0.024) and the incidence of central obesity. The conclusion of the study was that there was a relationship between smoking status, type of smoker, type of cigarette, physical activity, meat consumption frequency, and the incidence of central obesity, all of which were risk factors of central obesity in Indonesian men. A low level of physical activity was the most prominent risk factor associated with central obesity among Indonesian men. From this study, we suggested controlling the risk factors of central obesity by providing education on the dangers of smoking and the importance of physical activity and a balanced nutritional diet.

Abstract

Highlights: • ESBL frequency in women was higher than in men. • Catheter use in patients with urinary tract infections and recurrent urinary tract infections has four times the risk of ESBL caused by Escherichia coli bacteria • ESBL-producing E.coli bacteria are resistant to amoxicillin-clavulanic, ceftazidime, aztreonam, and ceftriaxone. Abstract: The incidence of urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria has become a global problem and has increased in recent years. The purpose of this study was to analyze the risk factors for the incidence of UTI in inpatients at Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital Surabaya. This research was an analytic descriptive study. Specimens were sent to the Clinical Microbiology Laboratory using sterile containers and processed according to standard laboratory procedures. It resulted in ESBL-producing E. coli that were used as a case group and non ESBL-producing E. coli as a control group. The identification and testing of antibiotic susceptibility were carried out using the BD Phoenixâ„¢ Automated Microbiology System. Ninety-four bacterial isolates were collected, consisting of 54 (57.4%) ESBL-producing E. coli bacteria and 40 (42.6%) non ESBL-producing E. coli bacteria. Recurrent UTIs (OR = 4.31; ρ =0.002; 95% CI = 1.68-11.04) and catheter use (ρ = 0.049; OR = 4.250; 95% CI = 1.050-17.210) were used as independent risk factors caused by ESBL-producing E. coli bacteria. Recurrent UTIs and catheter use were dependent risk factors caused by ESBL-producing E. coli bacteria.
