Abstract

Obesity can be defined as the excess of body fat. The prevalence of obesity worldwide increases in the last decades andcauses a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases. Male subjects tend to develop visceral (abdominal) obesity, which producespro-inflammatory adipokines. Obesity in males is associated with low testosterone levels. Several mechanisms have beenproposed to explain the link between male obesity and hypotestosterone, including increased aromatization oftestosterone to form estradiol, suppressing the Hypothalamus-Pituitary (HPT) axis due to pro-inflammatory adipokines, anddecrease of Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) production. Because hypotestosterone in males with obesity is afunctional but reversible condition, it is essential to screen testosterone levels in obese males for early intervention andtreatment.

Abstract

Infectious diseases remain a serious problem in Indonesia. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a substance released by neutrophils, which activates the synthesis of hypochlorous acid (HOCL) from hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and chloride ion (Cl-). Hypochlorous acid plays a vital role in the body's defense against infection. Myeloperoxidase Index (MPXI) is a parameter in the hematology analyzer Advia 2120i based on the principle of flow cytometry. This study aimed to determine the diagnostic value of MPXI in patients with bacterial infections. The study was a cross-sectional observational analysis. The samples consisted of a group of patients with bacterial infection and a group of healthy subjects. The specimens used in this study were whole blood + anticoagulant (EDTA) in a purple tube with a volume of 3 mL to determine the MPXI value in both groups using ADVIA 2120i hematology analyzer. The study subjects consisted of a group of patients with bacterial infections (69 patients) and a group of healthy subjects (33 people). Analysis of the MPXI ROC curve with a cut-off ≥ -5.8 and < -5.8, showed AUC of 0.323 (CI=95%, p=0.004), sensitivity of 34.8%, specificity of 39.4%, Positive Predictive Value (PPV) of 54.5%, and Negative Predictive Value (NPV) of 22.4%. Due to its low diagnostic value, the MPXI value was not recommended to be used as a diagnostic instrument for bacterial infections. Also, further research was highly needed.

Abstract

Beta-Trace Protein (BTP) is a low-molecular-weight glycoprotein that can convert prostaglandin H2 into prostaglandin D2 and is associated with the vascular function's alteration. Serum beta-trace protein has been proposed as a promising marker in predicting kidney function in hypertensive patients. This study aimed to analyze the correlation between BTP and glomerulus filtration rate, particularly in hypertensive patients. A cross-sectional survey was conducted on 70 hypertensive participants admitted to Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital from July-August 2019. Beta-trace protein, serum urea, creatinine, blood pressure, and anthropometric were measured. The Glomerulus Filtration Rate (GFR) with Cockcroft Gault was graded using GFR stages. The hypertension was graded according to the category of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) 2018. A descriptive test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Fisher exact test, Spearman correlation test, and logistic regression test were performed at a confidence level of 95%. Significant differences were found between the age, systole, diastole, blood urea, creatinine, and GFR (p=< 0.05). There was a significant difference between GFR and the degree of hypertension (p=< 0.001), but no differences were found in the mean value of BTP and the degree of hypertension (p=0.348). A significant negative correlation was found between GFR and BTP (p=0.028, r = -0.263). Logistic regression test s showed that the increased BTP led to 2.591 times greater possibility of end-stage renal disease with GFR < 15 mL/min/ 2 1.73 m (crude odds ratio 95% CI 1.168-5.475). Serum beta-trace protein possesses a prognostic ability of glomerulus filtration rate and can be used to predict the odd of end-stage renal disease in hypertensive patients.

Abstract

Disseminated histoplasmosis is a severe manifestation of fungal infection caused by Histoplasma capsulatum. It usually occurs in a patient with an immunodeficiency state. With the increase of HIV infection and the use of immunosuppressant drugs lately, its prevalence also increases. A case of 43 years old female with prolonged fever, pancytopenia, and massive progressive splenomegaly. The diagnosis of disseminated histoplasmosis and the secondary hemophagocytic syndrome was made based on bone marrow examination that showed increased hemophagocytic processes and multipleintracytoplasmic H.capsulatum. She had been treated with Itraconazole 200 mg for three months. In the first month's evaluation, her complete blood count improved without any transfusions, and the size of her spleen size decreased. She had been fully recovered after the completion of 3-month treatment.

Abstract

The cure rate for patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is 20-75%. Standard-dose cytarabine + (SDAC)-daunorubicine gives a remission rate of ± 60%, and the case of relapse is frequently found. In-vivo CD34 expression is a reliable and straightforward test that must evaluate AML patients' response to predict the response of chemotherapy + induction phase accurately. Differences in in-vitro CD34 expression are expected to be able to predict chemosensitivity in AML patients. An experimental post-test-only control group study was conducted from May to December 2019, and 8 AML subjects were found. Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) were isolated from peripheral blood samples of patients with AML collected in EDTA tubes. The PBMC isolated from peripheral blood were divided into two groups, and each group contained 106 PBMC cells in culture media. The control group (without treatment) and the SDAC-daunorubicine group were 0 + incubated for 4 hours at 37 C with a 5% CO2 atmosphere. The expression of CD34 was measured using FACSCaliburâ„¢, while + CD34+ percentage was calculated with CellQuestâ„¢ software. The percentage of CD34 in the control, SDAC + DNR, showed a significant difference with p < 0.001. This study showed a significant difference between the control group and the group + administered with the standard dose of cytarabine-daunorubicine with p < 0.001. The average CD34 expression in the + SDAC-DNR treatment group was higher than in the control group. CD34 markers cannot be used as predictors of chemosensitivity in the administration of chemotherapy.

Abstract

Cardiovascular disease remains a significant health problem in the Asia Pacific region. Several studies have found that dyslipidemia is a cause of morbidity and mortality and requires high medical costs. Dyslipidemia is a risk factor for atherosclerosis. The most widely used therapy for dyslipidemia is statins. Statins often cause muscle disorders such as myalgia, myopathy, and rhabdomyolysis, which can cause death. A prospective cohort study design was carried out at Airlangga University Hospital, Surabaya, from April to November 2019. A total of 26 sample pairs containing 13 samples were treated with Atorvastatin, and 13 samples were treated with Simvastatin. The subjects were examined for the creatinine kinase activity level using enzymatic methods. The mean creatinine kinase levels in the atorvastatin group before and after treatment was 105.71 IU/L and 100.03 IU/L, respectively, because the subjects were diagnosed with acute coronary syndromes and blood was collected during acute conditions. Median creatinine kinase levels in the Simvastatin group were 85.5 IU/L before therapy and 118.1 IU/L after therapy, indicating significant differences in creatinine kinase levels before and after treatment. Simvastatin is very susceptible to certain drug interactions that can increase the concentration of statins in the serum. There were differences in levels of creatinine kinase activity before and after Simvastatin therapy but not Atorvastatin.

Abstract

Vitamin D is known to play an important role in fighting infections through innate and adaptive immune systems. Children with cancer have a higher risk of suffering sepsis and vitamin D deficiency. Some studies on vitamin D levels in pediatric cancer with sepsis have shown varied results and remain controversial. This study aimed to analyze 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in pediatric hematologic cancer with and without suspected sepsis. The study was an observational analytical study with a cross-sectional design. Samples were collected during April–September 2019 from the Pediatrics Outpatient Clinic of the Dr. Soetomo Hospital, Surabaya. The samples were a group of pediatric hematologic cancer consisted of 32 subjects with suspected sepsis and 30 without sepsis. Each group was measured the 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels, then differences in levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D between groups were assessed. Vitamin D levels were measured using ADVIA Centaur. Both groups had low 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels with a deficiency state of 96.9% and 80% in the suspected sepsis group and group without sepsis. There were differences in levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in pediatric cancer with and without suspected sepsis (p=0.045). Lower vitamin D levels were found in the cancer group with suspected sepsis. Low vitamin D levels reduce T-helper 2 activity, decrease cellular immunity, and decrease phagocytic macrophages, leading to an easier entry of pathogens and bacteremia. There were significant differences in 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in pediatric hematologic cancer with and without suspected sepsis.

Abstract

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is characterized by exacerbation and remission, which needs close monitoring of the disease activity. Systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity can be determined by the SLE Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI) score. Evaluation of the disease activity is essential to be a guidance for treatment. Interleukin-34 (IL-34) is related to the pathogenesis of SLE. Serum IL-34 can be a candidate marker to evaluate SLE disease activity, and it is correlated with the SLEDAI score. This study aimed to determine the correlation between IL-34 level and disease activity in SLE patients based on the SLEDAI (Mex-SLEDAI) score. An observational analytical study with a cross-sectional design was carried out in six months (June-November 2019) in 27 SLE patients in the Department of Internal Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Sumatera Utara University/Adam Malik General Hospital, Medan. Systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity was measured based on the Mex-SLEDAI score. Serum and urine were collected to obtain the Mex-SLEDAI score and IL-34 level. IL-34 level was measured in all subjects by using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Spearman correlation test was used todetermine the correlation between IL-34 level and disease activity in SLE patients based on the SLEDAI (Mex-SLEDAI) score. There was a significant correlation between IL-34 level and disease activity in SLE patients based on SLEDAI (Mex-SLEDAI) score (r=0.965, p < 0.001). Further studies were needed with a sample of SLE patients in a balanced proportion based on their disease activity to obtain representative IL-34 levels in SLE patients based on their disease activity.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia due to abnormal secretions and/or insulin activity. Osteopontin (OPN) is an important component of inflammation and insulin resistance, and vitamin D decreases insulin resistance. This study aimed to analyze the correlation between OPN and glycemic control and total 25-OH vitamin D in type 2 DM. An observational analytic study with a cross-sectional approach was performed in Dr. Moewardi Hospital, Surakarta, from May to September 2018. Plasma OPN levels were measured by a sandwich enzyme immunoassay kit from Elabscience 96T Human OPN (USA), and a total of 25-OH vitamin D was evaluated using the ELFA method from Biomerieux SA (France). Data were tested by Pearson correlation (r). Type 2 DM subjects consisted of 45 (54.2%) males and 38 (45.8%) females, 36 (43.45%) well- and 47 (56.65%) poorly-controlled. The average age was 56.81±9.76 years old. The mean of OPN level in poorly-controlled cases was significantly higher (20.27±3.20 ng/mL) than well-controlled ones (15.04±3.34 ng/mL) with p=0.001. There was no significant difference in total 25-OH vitamin D between well- and poorly-controlled groups (19.84±6.65 vs. 17.24±6.78 ng/mL, respectively, p=0.085). The correlation of OPN with glycemic control (fasting glucose, 2-hour post-prandial glucose, HbA1c) and total 25-OH vitamin D in all subjects with type 2 DM were r=0.241 (p=0.028), r=0.378 (p=0.0001) r=0.529 (p=0.0001) and r=-0.151 (p=0.173), respectively. This study suggested that plasma OPN level was correlated with glycemic control but not with serum total 25-OH vitamin D in type 2 DM. Further research was needed in populations of other types of DM and other research variables related to inflammation or insulin resistance.

Abstract

Invasive Fungal Infections (IFIs) can cause serious problems in cancer patients and may result in high morbidity and mortality. C-reactive protein levels increase in response to injury, infection, and inflammation. C-reactive protein increases in bacterial infections (mean of 32 mg/L) and in fungal infections (mean of 9 mg/L). This study aimed to determine C-Reactive Protein (CRP) as a marker of fungal infections in patients with acute leukemia by establishing cut-off values of CRP. This study was an observational analytical study with a cross-sectional approach and was carried out at the Department of Clinical Pathology and Microbiology of Dr. Moewardi Hospital in Surakarta from May until August 2019. The inclusion criteria were patients with acute leukemia who were willing to participate in this study, while exclusion criteria were patients with liver disease. There were 61 samples consisting of 30 male and 31 female patients with ages ranging from 1 to 70 years. Fifty-four patients (88.5%) were diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) and 30 (49.18%) were in the maintenance phase. The risk factors found in those patients were neutropenia 50-1500 μL (23.8%), use of intravenous line (22%), and corticosteroid therapy for more than one week (20.9%). The median of CRP in the group of patients with positive culture results was 11.20 mg/L (11.20-26.23 mg/L) and negative culture results in 0.38 mg/L (0.01-18.63 mg/L). The cut-off value of CRP using the Receiver Operating Curve (ROC) was 9.54 mg/L (area under curve 0.996 and p. 0.026), with a sensitivity of 100%, specificity of 93.2%, Positive Predictive Value (PPV) of 33.3%, Negative Predictive Value (PPV) of 100%, Positive Likelihood Ratio (PLR) of 1.08, Negative Likelihood Ratio (NLR) of 0 and accuracy of 93.4%. C-reactive protein can be used as a screening marker for fungal infections in patients with acute leukemia.
