Abstract

Microscopic examination of urine sediment using shih-yung system requires 10ml urine volume. Pediatric patients and kidney disease patients with oliguria difficult to get 10mL urine samples, so it needs to be studied to determine the accuracy of results with smaller sample volumes. Objectives: To analyze agreement of urine sediment examination using Shih-yung system in 10 mL and 5 mL urine volume. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional analysis of 37 urine specimens that met inclusion and exclusion criteria at the central laboratory of Dr. M. Djamil Hospital from July to September 2020. Examination of erythrocyte sediment, leukocyte sediment, and non-hyaline cast using Shih-yung system was done in 10 mL and 5 mL urine volume. Data were analyzed using kappa reliability/agreement test and significant if p<0.05. Results: Agreement test of erythrocyte sediment examination using Shih-yung system in 10ml and 5mL urine volume were moderate significantly (κ=0.600; p<0.05), agreement of leukocyte sediment examination were moderate significantly (κ=0.571; p<0.05), and agreement of nonhialin cast examination were substantial significantly (κ=0.767; p<0.05). Conclusion: Agreement test of erythrocyte and leukocyte sediment examination in 10ml and 5mL urine volume is moderate, so 5ml urine volume was not recommended. Manual examination with microscope and difference in urine sample volume causing difference sediment concentration and amount of sediment per microscope field of view.Keywords: Shih-yung,  urine sediment,  urine volume

Abstract

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) causes damage through mechanisms: cytotoxic to the bile duct, liver and renal tubular epithelial cells; severe inflammatory response due to excessive pro-inflammatory cytokines (cytokine storm); tissue anoxia; and drug-induced liver and kidney damage. AST and ALT enzymes are used to determine liver damage, while kidney damage is examined from increased urea and creatinine levels. Objectives: To know AST, ALT, urea and creatinine levels in COVID-19 patients with and without comorbidity in RSUP Dr. M. Djamil Padang. Methods: A retrospective descriptive study was conducted by taking chemical data for COVID-19 patients with and without comorbidity for March-August 2020. AST and ALT levels were examined by using an automatic chemistry analyzer with NADH method (without P-5'-P), urea with enzymatic colorimetry, and creatinine with Jaffe's modification. The data was presented in table and average (standard deviation). Results:  A study of 76 patients found 28 with comorbidity and 48 without comorbidity. Patients with comorbidity AST in average was 33.0 (20.3) U/l; SGPT 29.0 (23.4) U/l; urea 58.3 (66.9) mg/dl; and creatinine 3.0 (5.1) mg/dl. Patients without comorbidity AST in average 31.9 (28.7) mg/dl; SGPT 28.8 (21.4) mg/dl; urea 24.6 (20.1) mg/dl; creatinine 0.9 (0.4) mg/dl. In average, AST and ALT in patients with and without comorbidity were in the normal range. Urea and creatinine in patients with comorbidity were higher than normal. Conclusion: Covid-19 patients with comorbidity at admission had urea and creatinine levels in average higher than normal values.Keywords: aminotransaminase, COVID-19, creatinine

Abstract

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection can cause cytokine storm characterized by the excessive release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, leading to lymphopenia and neutrophilia. Lymphopenia and high Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) on admission were associated with the severity of the disease. Objectives: To found out lymphopenia and high NLR in SARS-CoV-2 infection. Methods: This was a cross-sectional descriptive study on all patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria at Dr. M. Djamil Hospital Padang from March until August 2020. Lymphocyte count and neutrophil count on admission were examined by flowcytometry method and NLR was calculated. Lymphopenia is a lymphocyte count of <1.5x103/mm3 and high NLR is ≥ 3.13.  Results: The study samples were 123 patients, with 58.5% women. The mean age was 47.80 (15.59) years. Lymphopenia was present in 39% of patients with mean lymphocyte count was 1.84 (0.83) x103/mm3. High NLR was present in 48% of patients with a mean NLR was 5.06 (4.87). Conclusion: Lymphopenia was present in 39% of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 and high NLR was present in 48% of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2.Keywords:  lymphopenia, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, SARS-CoV-2

Abstract

SARS-CoV-2 infection is a systemic infection that significantly affects hematopoiesis and the patient's immune response. Drastic increase in the production of proinflammatory cytokines like interleukin-6 (IL-6) play a role in mechanism of lymphopenia in COVID-19. Some indicators of inflammation markers include Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) and C-Reactive Protein (CRP). Objectives: To determined the correlation between Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-Reactive Protein (C-RP) levels in patients with covid-19. Methods: This research was an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional approach. The samples in this research were 10 ESR and 10 CRP data in a patient with positive COVID-19 at the Mataram University Hospital. Results: A minimum value of 0.50 was obtained from 10 samples of CRP examination, while the maximum value was 79.90 with an average value of 32.24 and a standard deviation of 30.36. The Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) examination obtained a minimum value of 6.00 from 10 samples, while the maximum value was 103.00 with an average value of 53.60 and a standard deviation of 36.40. Conclusion: There is no correlation between the value of Erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-Reactive Protein levels in patients with Covid-19.Keywords: Covid-19,  C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate

Abstract

Hyperkalemia is a life-threatening electrolyte abnormality resulting in cardiac arrhythmia. Hyperkalemia may also cause bradycardia with junctional rhythm. However, the prevalence of hyperkalemia accompanying symptomatic bradycardia has only been explored in a few case reports. Thus we present a case of hyperkalemia with uncommon ECG findings. It has been reported that a 76 years old woman with type 2 diabetes mellitus, hyperkalemia and suspected coronary artery disease complaining about palpitation. Electrocardiography (ECG) showed junctional bradycardia with tall T wave and laboratory examination showed mild hyperkalemia (5.8 mmol/L). After one day of observation, severe hypotension was detected. Unexpectedly the cardiac rhythm was returned into the sinus after correction of hyperkalemia using calcium gluconate, insulin, dextrose, and salbutamol. As serum potassium level rises, sinoatrial and atrioventricular conduction was blocked, causing escape rhythm (junctional escape rhythm). In hyperkalemia, cardiotoxicity can be caused by an increase in resting membrane potential, decreased depolarization and duration of depolarization. When detected on ECG, hyperkalemia should be treated urgently and important to identify underlying causes or precipitating factors of hyperkalemia. Sinus node dysfunction is not excluded in this case.  Hyperkalemia can present a bradycardia junctional rhythm. Although the increasing serum potassium levels were low, hyperkalemia may have affected the conduction system leading to the ECG changes.Keywords:  hyperkalemia, junctional bradycardia, symptomatic bradycardia

Abstract

Selenium is a trace element that has antioxidant properties and is a component of selenoproteins. In certain circumstances, such as injury, selenium supplementation is required to regulate the inflammatory response. Contusion injury increases the inflammatory response to a muscle or tissue that begins with vasodilation, increases blood flow, increases vascular permeability, and leads to edema formation at the site of injury. Objectives: To determine the effect of selenium supplementation on changes in blood markers in rats treated with contusion injury. Methods: Experimental design, using experimental male rats (Rattus norwegius), eight weeks old, weighing 200-220 grams, divided into three groups, namely: The Control group, the contusion group, the contusion + Selenium group. Selenium supplementation was given orally on days 1-3 after injury at a dose of 0.0153 mg into 2% PGA. Examination of markers such as White Blood cells (WBC), lymphocytes, monocytes, and neutrophils was carried out on day three after treatment. Results: This study found that the administration of post-muscular selenium supplementation based on examination of blood markers such as WBC, Lymphocytes, Monocytes was higher in the contusion group and lower in the selenium group. Neutrophils were higher in the contusion and selenium groups. This was not significantly different from the control group. The result of blood marker examination tended to change, but it was not statistically significant. Conclusion: Selenium supplementation in post-contusive injury mice did not provide significant changes in blood markers such as WBC, lymphocytes, monocytes, and neutrophils.Keywords:  antioxidant, blood marker, contusion, selenium

Abstract

The diagnosis of typhoid fever can be made by hematological examination and the Widal method. Hematologic change that often occurs in typhoid fever is thrombocytopenia. Platelet function can be observed by examining the platelet index, namely the Mean Platelet Volume (MPV), and Platelet Distribution Width (PDW). The titer on the serological examination of the Widal test is a significant diagnostic for infections caused by the bacterium Salmonella typhi. Objectives: To determine the relationship between the Widal titer and the number and index of platelets in patients with typhoid fever at the West Lombok Health Center. Methods: The research methodology used is an analytic observational method with a cross-sectional approach. This study was conducted from February 2021 to April 2021. The population in this study was all patients who underwent laboratory examinations diagnosed as positive for typhoid fever in the Gunungsari Health Center, West Lombok Regency, with a sample of 24 respondents. Data analysis using Spearman correlation. Results: Statistical test results obtained P≥0.05, namely the titer value against platelets p=0.429, the titer against the MPV platelet index p=1,000, PDW p=0.291. Conclusion: there is no relationship between widal titer to the number of platelets and the platelet index in patients with typhoid fever.Keywords:  typhoid fever, platelets, platelet  index, widal titer

Abstract

Mycetoma is a chronic granulomatous infectious disease of the skin, subcutis, fascia and bones caused by bacteria (actinomycetoma) or fungi (eumycetoma) in adults aged 20-40 years old, male to female ratio is 3,7:1 respectively. The clinical finding is a painless, solid and cold subcutaneous node. It has been reported a 43-year-old woman with a painless suppurative lump in her chest, stomach, armpits and legs in the past year. The lump were hypertrophic scars, atrophic scars, nodules and erythematous papules with pustules and sinuses, which excretes exudate greenish-yellow. The patient had a history of working in an oil palm farm. Histopathological examination of hematoxylin-eosin showed suppurative granulomatous inflammation consisting of epitheloid histiocytes, solid lymphocytes and neutrophils, and datia cells. PAS (Periodic acid-Schiff) staining showed positive results. The diagnosis of deep mycosis eumycetoma was confirmed based on physical examination and histopathological examination. Eumycetoma is a rare deep fungal disease. Supporting investigations such as direct microscopy, histopathology with biopsy, and culture are needed to establish the diagnosis. The therapies are antifungal drugs and surgery. Death is possible if the infection occurs in the chest or head cavity.Keywords: deep mycosis, eumycetoma, granules, mycetoma, sinuses
