Abstract

BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) could be triggered by inflammation and oxidative stress. Ganoderma lucidum has an active substance in the form of β-glucan that can reduce inflammatory process and oxidative stress in rats. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide peptide (GLPP) in paroxysmal AF subjects with parameters of anti-inflammatory antioxidant, electrocardiography and health-related quality of life (HRQoL).METHODS: A randomized closed-label clinical trial with pre- and post-test design was conducted. After AF subjects selection, the subjects were randomized, interviewed and veni-punctured to isolate blood plasma. AF Subjects were then treated with placebo or GLPP for 90 days. Post-test blood plasma was collected on the following day after the 90th day. Then anti-inflammatory and antioxidant parameters were measured. After that, echocardiographic and HRQoL assessments were performed.RESULTS: A total of 38 subjects, 11 males and 27 females, completed the study with no significant changes in diets, physical activities, or medications. Comparing to control, the 90-days GLPP-treated subject characteristics were significant difference in systolic blood pressure, heart rate, malondialdehyde, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor-a, interleukin (IL)-1b, IL-6, primary (P)-wave dispersion, P-max, physical functioning, limitation to physical health, energy/fatigue, pain, and physical limitation.CONCLUSION: GLPP has several potential effects in AF subjects, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and atrial remodelling, so that HRQoL of AF subjects could be improved. Hence, GLPP could suggested as a potential supplementing agent for AF management.KEYWORDS: atrial fibrillation, Ganoderma lucidum, inflammation, antioxidant, atrial remodelling, quality of life

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Vascular calcification contributes greatly to the incidence of cardiovascular disease. Previously, vascular calcification was considered as a passive process caused by the mineral deposition from the circulation. Nowadays, researchers have found inhibitors and promoter factors from vascular calcification, one of which is the matrix gla protein (MGP). MGP levels depend on the gene that encodes them. The MGP T-138C polymorphism is one of the most common causes of vascular calcification.METHODS: This was a case-control study involving 86 chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients who underwent regular hemodialysis in Rasyida Kidney Hospital, Medan, Indonesia. Vascular calcification was determined from lateral and posteroanterior abdominal X-ray. The MGP T-138 C polymorphism was analyzed using polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP).RESULTS: The TT/TC genotype associates with the incidence of vascular calcification with OR of 3.52, 95% CI: 1.23-10.106 (p-value<0.001).CONCLUSION: There is an association between MGP T-138C polymorphism, particularly on T Allele with the incidence of vascular calcification in CKD patients undergoing regular hemodialysis.KEYWORDS: hemodialysis, T-138 C polymorphism, vascular calcification, matrix GLA protein

Abstract

BACKGROUND: There is a lack of local data about recurrent acute respiratory infections in children with congenital heart disease (CHD). This study aims to investigate the incidence and recurrence of acute respiratory infection (ARI) in left-to-right shunt CHD.METHODS: This prospective cohort study investigated children with left-to-right shunt CHD, aged three months to five years, at Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital between September 2012 and April 2013. Age and sex-matched participants without CHD were recruited as reference. The occurrence of ARI was observed for six months. Acyanotic CHD patients from 2015 to 2019 were also evaluated to determine the proportion of ARI among this population.RESULTS: A total of 100 subjects were enrolled in the study, 50 in the CHD group and 50 in the non-CHD group, six of whom were later excluded. The monthly incidence of ARI in the CHD group ranged between 40-60% (p=0.027). Subjects with CHD had a cumulative increased risk of 10% for acquiring ARI (RR=1.1; 95% CI=1.02-1.2, p=0.027). The proportion of subjects with a high recurrence of ARI was also higher in the CHD compared to the non-CHD group (67% vs. 30 %, p<0.001). The mean frequency of and median duration of ARI episodes was also higher in CHD compared to the non-CHD group, 3 vs. 1.5 episodes (p<0.001), and 7 vs. 5 days, respectively.CONCLUSION: Children with CHD are at an increased risk of ARI, with more episodes and longer duration compared to children without CHD.KEYWORDS: non-cyanotic CHD, left-to-right shunt, acute respiratory infections
