Abstract

Background Asthma is a common chronic respiratory disease.The risk factors of asthma are allergic factors, familial atopy,race, gender, and smoking during pregnancy. Other risk factorsare gastroesophageal reflux and micro-aspiration which causebronchospasm and bronchial hyperreactivity due to repeatedairway irritation.Objective To determine the association between bottle feedinggiven in supine position before sleep time in the first year of lifewith asthma in 4 to 7 years old.Methods A case control study was conducted on pediatricpatients from Sardjito Hospital and Muhammadiyah kindergarten, Yogyakarta. Two structured questionnaires were used; the first identified the case group (asthma) and control group (nonasthma), whereas the second one identified whether the subjects had bottle feeding in supine position in the first year of life or not.Results 122 subjects were studied, 62 subjects in asthma groupand 60 in control group. In asthma group, feeding in supineposition before sleep time in the first year had OR of 2.45 (95%CI 1.21 to 6.93), whereas regurgitation when bottle-feeding insupine position had OR of 4.53 (95% CI 1.54 to 13.16). Suddencry when bottle-feeding in supine position had OR of 5.02 (95%CI 1.69 to 15.71). Asthma in the family increased risk of asthma[OR 3.12 (95% CI 1.16 to 6.50)] and atopicfamily has OR 3.25(95% CI 1.01 to 6.27).Conclusion Bottle feeding in supine position before sleep timeduring first year oflife is associated with occurrence of asthma inpreschool children.

Abstract

Background Neonatal sepsis remains a crucial problem with highmorbidity and mortality. Not less than four million neonates dieevery year, 99% of which occur in developing countries withinfection as the main cause (36%) of death. The prognosticfactors of bacterial neonatal sepsis vary. However the death ratein neonatal sepsis with neutropenia is suspected to be higher thanthat in non-neutropenic condition.Objectives The purpose of this study was to identify whetherneutropenia would increase the death risk of bacterial neonatalsepsis.Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study. Subjectswere neonates at Instalasi Maternal Perinatal (IMP) of Dr. SardjitoHospital in Yogyakarta who met the eligibility criteria. Duringthe five-year period Qanuary 2002- January 2007), out of 1821cases of suspected neonatal sepsis, 365 (16.7%) were found tohave bacterial cause in the culture of body's fluid (blood, urine,and cerebrospinal). Out of these 16.7% patients suffering fromneutropenia, 39.6% patients died, whereas 9.1 o/o patients weresurvive [RR 4.72, (95% CI: 2.49 to 8.93), P < 0.01].Conclusion Neonates suffering bacterial sepsis with neutropeniahad death risk 4.7 times higher than those who did not haveneutropenia.
