Abstract

COVID-19 mortality is much higher in members of the population with multiple co-morbidities. Anemia is independently associated with all-cause mortality in patients hospitalized with COVID-19. C-Reactive Protein (CRP) levels are increased in patients with renal failure and are an independent predictor of cardiovascular mortality. This study used an observational case-control method. Data were taken consecutively using medical records of patients who died as a case group and lived as a control group with chronic kidney disease who underwent routine HD confirmed with COVID-19 at Ulin General Hospital, Banjarmasin. The number of subjects in this study was 92 patients. High CRP levels (>30 mg/L) significantly increased the risk of death by 4 times (OR 4.330; 95% CI 1.800-10.416; p = 0.001). Low hemoglobin levels (<10 g/dl) did not affect mortality in routine hemodialysis patients infected with COVID-19 (OR 0.643; 95% CI 0.281-1.471; p = 0.294). An increased CRP in COVID-19 patients is thought to indicate extensive inflammation in the infected lungs, then the condition of CKD patients undergoing routine hemodialysis with compromised immunity increases the risk of severity and mortality in this population. There is an effect of CRP levels on death from COVID-19 in Chronic Kidney Disease patients undergoing routine hemodialysis at Ulin General Hospital, Banjarmasin.

Abstract

Early screening for HIV infection provides an opportunity for mother-to-child transmission and optimizes the care of HIV-infected mothers and unborn babies to improve clinical outcomes. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and the risk factors associated with HIV infection among pregnant women attending antenatal care at the District Hospital and its feeder community health center of the Limpopo Province (LP), South Africa. The study was a cross-sectional descriptive study carried out over 2-months from 01 May 2019 to 30 June 2019.  A consecutive sample of pregnant women who attended antenatal care during the study period was asked to participate. In total, 211 pregnant women participated in this study.  Their mean age was 28.4±5.7 years, ranging from 18 to 41 years.  More than half (56.4%) were aged <30 years old, 51.7% had secondary education, 71.1% were unmarried, and 72.0% were unemployed. The majority (66.4%) of pregnant women had multiple pregnancies and 70.6% were in the third trimester. Few (0.95%, n=2) had a history of alcohol use. The HIV prevalence was 15.2%, and significantly high in illiterate, elementary school-educated and multiparous women. The HIV infection rate in this setting is relatively associated with the level of education and parity. The social risk factors of health in each municipality should be considered when local health authorities implement policies. Women should be continually provided with health education about modes of transmission of HIV prevention particularly those with lower levels of education and reproductive age.

Abstract

Sasirangan is a typical cloth from the South Kalimantan which is produced by the Banjarist people in home industries. The production of sasirangan has a very positive impact on the welfare of Banjarist people. However, the processing and liquid waste resulting from the production process can have a negative impact on workers' health and the environment because it contains synthetic dyes and heavy metals. This is caused by poor worker behavior in processing and disposing of liquid waste from sasirangan cloth. Worker behavior can be related to worker education and knowledge. This research aims to analyze the relationship between education, knowledge and the behavior of sasirangan workers in processing and disposing of waste in the home-based sasirangan industry in Banjarmasin. This research is an analytical observational study with a cross sectional approach, carried out at 3 (three) sasirangan production locations: Sungai Jingah, Seberang Masjid Village and Surgi Mufti subdistricts. Sampling used a purposive sampling technique with a sample size of 30 workers. Data analysis was carried out using descriptive and statistical analysis using the Chi Square test with the alternative Fisher Exact Test. The results of data analysis show the p value of the education variables (p=0.032) and knowledge (p=0.049). There is a significant relationship between education and knowledge and worker behavior in processing and disposing of waste in the sasirangan home industry in Banjarmasin. This is in accordance with Lawrence Green's theory, the better the worker's education and knowledge, the better the worker's behavior. The existence of a significant relationship between education and knowledge and workers' behavior in processing and disposing of waste in the sasirangan home industry in Banjarmasin requires follow-up in the form of efforts to increase education and knowledge regarding the processing and disposal of sasirangan waste for workers in the sasirangan home industry in Banjarmasin.

Abstract

Psoriasis and cardiovascular disease share a complex interrelation mediated by chronic inflammation. Epidemiological data reveal higher cardiovascular risks in psoriasis patients, including diabetes and atherosclerosis. Pathophysiologically, inflammatory cytokines play a pivotal role. Genetic, lifestyle, and psychological factors exacerbate this link. Anti-inflammatory therapies, notably TNF-α inhibitors, demonstrate potential in mitigating cardiovascular risk. However, pharmacotherapy selection necessitates cautious consideration, especially regarding biologic agents' impact on cardiovascular health. Management entails tailored approaches ranging from topical treatments to biologics, adjusted to disease severity and individual response. Understanding this relationship fosters personalized treatment strategies. Further research is imperative for validation and deeper mechanistic insights, enhancing prevention and management paradigms for affected individuals.
