Abstract

Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus, defined as glucose intolerance in variable degree with onset during pregnancy, is a risk factor for the development of fetal macrosomia, a newborn with the birthweight of more than 4000g. The objective of this study was to explore an association between glucose level in lean pregnant diabetes mellitus patients, resulting in babies and the incidence of macrosomia in Dr Soetomo General Hospital in Surabaya.Methods: This was a retroprospective analytic study with a cross sectional design by using medical records at Dr. Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya, collected from January 2016 to December 2017. The correlation between fasting glucose level, 2-hour postprandial glucose and glucose level at the time of birth and weight of newborn was assessed.Results: Controlled and uncontrolled fasting glucose level, 2-hour postprandial glucose level and glucose level at the time of birth of mother were not significantly associated with macrosomia newborns. Macrosomia newborn were born with gestational diabetes mellitus mothers compare with pregestational mellitus mothers.Conclusions: There is no association between macrosomia with glucose level of lean gestational and pregestational diabetes mellitus, however, therapeutic approach such as physical exercise should be implemented to reduce effects of uncontrolled glucose level.

Abstract

Background: Indonesia is one of the heavy burden countries with high pulmonary tuberculosis incidence in the world. The physical condition of houses is one of the environmental factors on how the infection spreads. The objective of this study was to provide supporting facts between the physical environment of the houses and the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods: This was an observational analytic study with a case-control design, using checklists among pulmonary tuberculosis patients (n 32) and their healthy controls (n 32). Study subjects were chosen by simple random sampling. The study was performed from March to August 2019 at the Public Health Center (Pusat Kesehatan Masyarakat, Puskesmas) in Sawahan district, Surabaya. The incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis was related to various factors, including window existence, window opening habit, ventilation-to-area ratio, humidity, temperature, lighting, and occupancy density. The collected data were analyzed using the chi-square test to assess statistical significance with a p-value <0.05 was considered significantly related.Results: The ventilation-to-area ratio (p<0.05) and house lighting (p<0.00) were related to pulmonary tuberculosis incidence, whereas other factors such as window existence, window opening habit, temperature, and occupancy density were not.Conclusions: The ventilation-to-area ratio and house lighting have been proven to be related to pulmonary tuberculosis incidence. Government regulation on building permit needs to be encouraged to reduce the spreading and the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis.
