Abstract

Background: Pre-diabetes is a state where glucose level higher than normal, but not satisfy the criteria for diabetes. This condition is very critical, so that if subject don’t do lifestyle modification and pharmacology therapy, they could fall to diabetes. This research objective is to describe the prevalence and predictors of pre-diabetes in Indonesia.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted by Metabolic Endocrinology Division, Department of Internal Medicine FMUI/RSCM and Jakarta Diabetes and Lipid Center using secondary data from National Health Survey 2007. Total  respondents are 24417 subjects from 33 provinces in Indonesia. We analyze characteristics, correlation, predictors, and  attributable risks for some predictors of pre-diabetes and diabetes.Results: Prevalence of pre-diabetes (based on impaired glucose tolerance data) in Indonesia is 10%. Predictors of pre-diabetes are male, old-age, high socio-economic status, low education level, hypertension, obesity, central obesity, and smoking. Priority for pre-diabetes and diabetes prevention in Indonesia directed to decrease blood pressure (Attributable Risk/AR  56.5%), reduce waist circumference (AR 47.3%), and stop smoking (AR 44.4%).Conclusion: Prevalence of pre-diabetes in Indonesia is high so that we need a prevention strategy for pre-diabetes and the development from pre-diabetes to diabetes. The implementation of those strategies is compiled in the Indonesian Diabetes Prevention Program.(Med J Indones 2011; 20:283-94)Keywords: diabetes, Indonesian diabetes prevention program, pre-diabetes

Abstract

Background: The aim of this case study is to compare the effectiveness between cyclophosphamide and mycophenolate mofetil to achieve remission of lupus nephritis in an evidence-based case report from meta-analyses.Methods: Method in this case study is evidence-based case report using meta-analyses. Clinical question used in this paper is; which immunosuppressant gives better result in achieving remission in lupus nephritis patient: cyclophosphamide or mycophenolate mofetil? To answer this question, we search the evidence from PubMed with the keywords: “lupus nephritis AND mycophenolate mofetil AND cyclophosphamide” with inclusion criteria of meta-analysis, written in English, and focused comparing cyclophosphamide and mycophenolate mofetil.Results: From the searching method, we found 11 articles which is relevant. One has been excluded since it written in Hebrew, 4 articles excluded since are not focus answering the clinical question. At the end, 6 studies were included to the critical appraisal step.Conclusion: Based on the evidences, mycophenolate mofetil is non-inferior to cyclophosphamide in achieving remission in lupus nephritis patients, but with the better safety profile. Patient in our case study get mycophenolate mofetil and shows better clinical condition towards remission as she are evaluated in the outpatient clinic.

Abstract

ABSTRACTCholangiocarcinoma is a cancer which derived from biliary epithelial. This malignancy is rare, but have poor prognosis. Manifestation of liver flukes, primary sklerosing cholangitis, hepatolithiasis, and malformation of the biliary tree all this time are known to be risk factors for cholangiocarcinoma. In recent years, it has been shown that infection of hepatitis B and hepatitis C viral are also cholangiocarcinogenic, so it is known to become ‘new’ risk factor for cholangiocarcinoma. A literature study was conducted to search for pathogenesis theory and evidence in clinical and community study. Most basic, epigenetic, pathologic, clinical, and community studies revealed that there is a link between hepatitis viral infection and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Unfortunately, the link between the infection and extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma remain unclear. Look at the analysis, in the future, we must take more attention to chronic hepatitis patients for the risk of getting cholangiocarcinoma, while in cholangiocarcinoma, we must also consider about the risk factors such as hepatitis viral infection in the patients. Keywords: cholangiocarcinoma, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, cholangiocarcinogenic ABSTRAKKolangiokarsinoma adalah kanker yang berasal dari epitel bilier. Keganasan ini termasuk jarang, namun memiliki prognosis yang buruk. Manifestasi cacing hati, kolangitis sklerosis primer, hepatolitiasis, dan malformasi bilier selama ini diketahui merupakan faktor risiko kejadian kolangiokarsinoma. Beberapa tahun terakhir diketahui bahwa infeksi virus hepatitis B dan hepatitis C juga memiliki sifat kolangiokarsinogenik sehingga menjadi faktor risiko ‘baru’ bagi kejadian kolangiokarsinoma. Penelusuran literatur mengenai patogenesis dan bukti ilmiah dalam studi klinis dan epidemiologi dilakukan untuk mengkaji hubungan antara infeksi virus hepatitis B dan C dengan kolangiokarsinoma. Sebagian besar riset dasar, epigenetik, patologi, klinis, dan komunitas (populasi) menyiratkan adanya hubungan antara infeksi virus hepatitis B dan C dengan kolangiokarsinoma intrahepatik. Sayangnya, hubungan infeksi kedua virus dengan kolangiokarsinoma ekstrahepatik masih belum jelas. Melihat kajian ini, ke depan perlu perhatian lebih kepada pasien hepatitis kronis terhadap risiko kolangiokarsinoma. Sementara, bagi pasien kolangiokarsinoma, perlu pencarian faktor risiko, yang salah satunya adalah infeksi virus hepatitis kronis.Kata Kunci: kolangiokarsinoma, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, kolangiokarsinogenik

Abstract

Background: Chronic complications of diabetes mellitus have a significant role in increasing morbidity, mortality, disability, and health cost. In the outpatient setting, the availability of data regarding to the chronic complications of type 2 diabetes is useful for evaluation of prevention, education, and patient’s treatment. This study aimed to describe the characteristic of type 2 diabetes chronic complications in outpatient diabetes clinic.Methods: A cross-sectional study was done using 155 patients in Outpatient Diabetes Clinic of Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital (RSCM), Jakarta in 2010. Secondary data were used from medical record based on history taking, physical examination, diabetic foot assessment, laboratory, neurologic, cardiology, opthalmology, ankle brachial index, and electrography of the patients. Characteristic profiles of the subjects, prevalence of the chronic complications, and its association with diabetes risk factors, such as glycemic control using HbA1c, fasting blood glucose, duration of diabetes, and LDL cholesterol were analyzed using chi square test.Results: Among 155 subjects participated in the study, most of them were women (59%) and elderly (46%). The prevalence of diabetes chronic complications was 69% from all subjects. These chronic complications included microangiopathy, macroangiopathy and mixed complications, with prevalence of 56%, 7% and 27% respectively. Microangiopathy included nephropathy (2%), retinopathy (7%), neuropathy (38%) and mixed complications (53%). Macroangiopathy included coronary heart disease (46%), peripheral arterial disease (19%), stroke (18%), and mixed complication (17%). From the analysis, we found significant association between duration of diabetes and diabetic neuropathy (p = 0.003).Conclusion: Prevalence of diabetes chronic complications in Outpatient Diabetes Clinic of Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, mainly dominated by microvascular-related complications including nephropathy, retinopathy, neuropathy and mixed complications. There was statistical significance between diabetes duration and diabetic neuropathy.

The aim of this study was to find the prevalence of diabetes and knowledge of diabetes among the community in Nangapanda Village, Ende District, East Nusa Tenggara.Methods: A cross-sectional study “Ende Diabetes Study” was conducted in Nangapanda Village. This study use cluster random sampling method to a total number of 19756 residents in Nangapanda village. From the sampling frame of 1800 adult subjects who underwent screening with glucometer in 2008 and 2009, 125 subjects have been diagnosed as diabetes or impaired fasting glucose (IFG). All of the subjects who were diagnosed as diabetes or IFG from the previous screening and 218 subjects from control (normal subjects in the 2008 and 2009 screening) were included in the present study. Each subject underwent general anamnesis, nutritional interview, complete physical examinations, and laboratory test (blood and urine). The data were analyzed using SPSS 13.0.Ressult: There were 343 subjects in this study. The prevalence of diabetes in Nangapanda using blood glucose criteria (using fasting and post-glucose load values) was 2%; using post glucose load criteria, the prevalence of DM was 1.56%; while with HbA1c criteria, the prevalence was 2.83%. The prevalence of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) was 2.2%, and IFG was 6.2%. A number of 71.1% Nangapanda residents have sufficient knowledge about diabetes.Conclusion: Prevalence of diabetes in Nangapanda (using fasting and post-glucose load criteria) was 2% and 1.56% (using post-glucose load values). As much as 71.1% of Nangapanda residents have sufficient knowledge about diabetes. (Med J Indones. 2013;22:30-8)Keywords: Diabetes mellitus, Ende Diabetes Study, prevalence, rural Indonesia

Abstract

Background: Obesity and central obesity have become serious public health problems in developing countries such as Indonesia. Although 10 years have passed since the largest national health survey was conducted in 2007, no further analysis and publication concerning obesity and central obesity in Indonesia have been conducted based on the survey. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of obesity and central obesity, and its association with sociodemographic characteristics and comorbidities in Indonesia.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted based on the National Basic Health Survey 2007 using total sampling method from 33 provinces. Obesity is defined as body mass index ≥25 according to the Asia-Pacific standard for obesity. Central obesity is defined as waist circumference >90 cm for men and > 80 cm for women according to the Asia-Pacific standard for central obesity.Results: The prevalence of obesity and central obesity in the Indonesian adult population are 23.1% and 28%, respectively. Both rates are higher in females than in males. Obesity and central obesity are associated with the risk of diabetes and hypertension.Conclusion: Prevalence of obesity and central obesity is high in the Indonesian adult population. Interventional programs are important to promote awareness of obesity and healthy lifestyle changes in the community.
