<![CDATA[Background: Febrile seizures occur at the age of 6 months to 5 years, ranging from 2-5% of cases in children. The sign when the body is fighting infection is the process that occurs, the presence of infection in the body causes a change in the leukocyte count, and high fever can trigger a decrease in hemoglobin. This study aims to determine the relationship between leukocytes and hemoglobin with the incidence of febrile seizures in children. Methods: This research is analytic observational with a cross-sectional design. The research data was taken from medical records at Abdul Wahab Sjahranie Hospital Samarinda with a purposive sampling method. The study sample was children aged 6 months to 5 years who had febrile seizures and fever without seizures and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Statistical analysis of this study used the chi-square test. Results: The chi-square test results were obtained on hemoglobin and leukocyte count with the incidence of febrile seizures with a p-value on the number of leukocytes (p=0.032) and hemoglobin (p=0.019). Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between the number of leukocytes and hemoglobin with the incidence of febrile seizures in children.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: Acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) is one of the most prevalent pediatric neoplasms, with a poor prognosis and high risk of relapse. Response to induction of chemotherapy and complication occurrence are crucial in the AML patient's outcome. Chemotherapy can induce apoptosis in a cancer cell and the blood cell as a side effect that can cause severe complications. This study aims to evaluate the cell apoptosis index and its correlation with hematologic profile (hemoglobin, leucocyte, thrombocyte, absolute neutrophile count/ANC) between induction chemotherapy administration. Methods: Observational study was performed on children with AML who will undergo induction chemotherapy. The cell apoptosis index and the hematologic profile were evaluated before and after induction chemotherapy. The data was then analyzed to compare the cell apoptosis index and its correlation with the hematologic profile. Result: The mean age of the subjects was 13.6 years old, similar to previous epidemiologic studies, which showed the main incidence at 15 years old. There was a significant increase in cell apoptosis index (p=0.014) and a significant decrease in hemoglobin level (p=0.031) and ANC (p=0.05). The cell apoptosis index had a significantly strong negative correlation with all hematologic profiles. Conclusion: Cell apoptosis index increased after induction chemotherapy in pediatric AML and correlated with the hematologic profile.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: Growth retardation was a complication in chronic kidney disease (CKD). It is a condition that a child can not achieve linear potential growth. Fifty percent of children with CKD will have a height below the third percentile. The causes of growth disorders in CKD are multifactorial. Electrolyte hemostasis (calcium and phosphorus) and lack of vitamin D play a role in growth in children with CKD. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between growth problems in children with chronic kidney disease and the correlation with vitamin D, calcium, and phosphorus. Method: This study was a retrospective observational analytical study design. The research subjects were taken from medical records from Saiful Anwar General Hospital in Malang from January 1st to December 2019. 68 pediatric patients aged 2 – 18 years old were diagnosed with chronic kidney disease, divided into 2 groups (with growth retardation and normal stature). Data were analyzed using SPSS v.26 for windows. Results: There was significant correlation between low vitamin D levels and growth retardation (p = 0.005), and significant correlation between calcium levels (p = 0.026) and phosphor levels (p = 0.222) and the incidence of growth retardation. Levels of vitamin D, calcium, and phosphor have a positive correlation with growth retardation 0.427, 0.277, dan 0.300 (p<0.05). Path analysis found a significant direct relationship between vitamin D on growth retardation (β = 0.358, p = 0.002) and had a greater effect when compared to the indirect relationship between vitamin D and growth retardation mediated by calcium and phosphorus. Conclusion: there is a correlation between vitamin D, calcium, and phosphorus with growth retardation in children with chronic kidney disease.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Growth retardation is a complication often found in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Growth retardation is characterized by the failure to reach a child's potential linear growth height. Fifty percent of children with CKD will have a height below the third percentile. The causes of growth retardation in CKD are multifactorial. One of them is the electrolyte balance of phosphorus and lack of vitamin D levels which play a role in the linear growth disorders of children with CKD. This study aims to determine the relationship between vitamin D and phosphorus levels on growth retardation in children with chronic kidney disease. Methods: This observational retrospective analytic study was conducted at the Polyclinic and Inpatient Room of the Department of Pediatrics in Saiful Anwar General Hospital, Malang from June 1, 2021 to September 2021. There were 68 subjects, divided into 2 groups: patients with CKD with growth retardation and without growth retardation, age ranging from 2 -18 years. Univariate test is used to describe the frequency distribution of each variable. The Chi-Square test used determines the correlation of each variable, the Spearman correlation test to see the strength of the relationship between the variables of vitamin D and phosphorus on growth retardation. The significance level and confidence interval were P<0.05 and 95%, respectively. Data were analyzed using SPSS v.26 for windows. Result: We found a correlation between vitamin D levels in patients with chronic kidney disease and growth retardation (P=0.005), as well as a correlation between phosphorus levels in patients with chronic kidney disease and growth retardation (p=0.022).Vitamin D and phosphorus had a correlation coefficients of 0.427, and 0.300 to growth retardation (p<0.05). We also found a significant direct correlation between vitamin D and growth retardation (β= 0.358, p=0.002), which shows a greater effect than the indirect relationship between vitamin D and phosphorus-mediated growth retardation. Conclusion: There is a significant corr between vitamin D level and phosphorus on growth retardation in children with chronic kidney disease.]]>

<![CDATA[Climate change that contributes to the destruction of the earth is one of the impacts of human behavior. One example of damage to the earth due to human behavior is global warming. One of the effects of global warming is the melting of permafrost. Melting of glaciers due to global warming will result in an isostatic rebound phenomenon, where melting glaciers will cause the weight of the earth's crust to decrease and it is easy to move and bounce, resulting in the movement of earth faults and increased activity in the magma chamber (increased seismic activity). The big impact is the occurrence of natural disasters that not only occur in parts of the world where glaciers melt but in other parts of the world far from where glaciers melt. Natural disasters that can occur are earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, and landslides. Global warming will also have an impact on the emergence of disease outbreaks. Indonesia is the meeting place of three major tectonic plates in the world, namely the Eurasian plate, the Indo-Australian plate and the Pacific plate. In addition, Indonesia is also located in the Pacific ring of fire, making Indonesia an area with high volcanic activity and seismic activity. Climate change will increase the risk of disasters in Indonesia. The long experience of the Indonesian people in dealing with natural disasters that often occur should be used as a strategy to prevent and reduce the impact of disasters in the future.]]>
