Abstract

Chemerin is adipokine that plays an important role in macrophage infiltration into adipose tissue and may contribute to inflammation development and insulin resistance. This study aimed to determine the effect of lifestyle modification with and without metformin on chemerin in metabolic syndrome. Forty-five metabolic syndrome subjects (IDF-2005) were randomly assigned to one of the two groups: placebo group (n=22) and metformin group (n=23). Both groups underwent a 12-week lifestyle modification (diet and moderate aerobic-exercise). Only 40 participants (placebo group n=20 and metformin group n=20) completed the survey whereas 5 participants dropped out of the study. After their lifestyle was modified, body weight, BMI, WC, and chemerin decreased significantly (p<0.001) in both groups. Moreover, there was a significant difference between both groups in body weight, BMI, and WC (p<0.05) but not for chemerin. Thus, lifestyle modification with metformin improved BW, BMI, WC on metabolic syndrome, and there was no decrease significantly of chemerin between placebo and metformin groups. Further investigations should be done to confirm the effect of lifestyle modification and metformin on chemerin after an extended follow-up period.

Abstract

Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) is an endogenous inhibitor of nitric oxideproduction and involved in various pathological processes, especially processes involvingcardiovascular risk. The purpose of this study was to analyze the correlation betweenADMA and anthropometric, glucose, lipid, and inflammatory parameters. The study wasanalyzed by a cross-sectional study of 45 obese subjects at H. Adam Malik Hospital. Bloodtests were carried out after 8-10 hours of fasting against cardiovascular risk: anthropometry(body weight, BMI, and WC), glucose (FPS, PPS, HbA1C, Fasting Insulin, and HOMA-IR), lipid (LDL-C, HDL-C, TG, and sd-LDL), and inflammation (ApoB and hs-CRP)parameters. The results showed of the 45 subjects, the average age was 41.69 ± 5.69 yearsold, and the average BMI was 33.09 ± 5.05 (Obesity I). ADMA was also found to becorrelated significantly with FPG, HBA1c, and TG parameters [r=-0.506, p=0.001; r=-0.334, p=0.013, dan r = -0.315. p=0.017, respectively]. In obesity, ADMA correlatedsignificantly with cardiovascular risk parameters: FPG, HbA1C, and TG.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public issue in Indonesia including in North Sumatra province. Despite reported good efficacy of TB treatment in the region, the success of treatment depends on many factors including nutritional status. This study aims to determine the relationship between Body Mass Index and Albumin level with sputum conversion in AFB-positive pulmonary TB patients.The study was done in two primary health centres in Medan between October and November 2018. A total of 39 newly diagnosed TB patients with confirmed AFB-positve were included in the study.Participants received TB treatment according to the national guidelines. The proportion of participants with below normal, normal and above normal BMI status were 13 (33.3%), 21 (53.9%) and 5 (12.8%), respectively. Level of albumin was determined as normal in 25 participants (64.1%), and the remaining as low. Normal BMI status was significantly associated with increased albumin level (P<0.05). At 2 months follow-up, the sputum conversion was observed in 24 individuals (61.5%), and the conversion was significantly associated with normal BMI and/or normal albumin level (P<0.05). We concluded that nutritional status is an important factor in the success of TB treatment.

Abstract

Previous studies have not been able to show with certainty the effect of vitamin D supplementation in tuberculosis patients. The objective of this study is to determine whether vitamin D supplementation to patients with tuberculosis could influence 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and calcium serum levels. The results, after 28 days, the vitamin D supplementation showed significant increase of 25(OH)D serum level at the end point (p=0.001), but not for the calcium serum level (p=0.3). The Conclusions is supplementation with 1,000 IU vitamin D per day increased the 25(OH)D serum level but there was no association with the calcium serum level.

Abstract

Fetuin-A is a liver-synthesized protein that is secreted into serum. Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) is a polypeptide member of the TGF-β superfamily of cytokines. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of lifestyle modification and metformin on fetuin-A and Transforming Growth Factor-ß (TGF- ß) in metabolic syndrome (MetS). Forty MetS subjects were randomly assigned to treatment with placebo (n=20) or metformin (n=20) in addition to lifestyle modification for 12 weeks. All 40 participants completed the study. After 12 weeks, both groups had significant reductions in weight, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (all p<0.001). The placebo group also had significant improvement in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and C-reactive protein (CRP) (p<0,001 ; p<0.05 respectively). Weight, BMI, WC, FPG, 2-hour postprandial glucose (2h-PPG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides (TG), fetuin-A and TGF- ß in the metformin group decreased significantly compared to the placebo group. Reduction of plasma fetuin-A was significantly associated with TG in the metformin group. Lifestyle modification and treatment with metformin for 12 weeks improved cardio-metabolic risk factors in MetS and reduced fetuin-A levels.

Abstract

Apolipoprotein B (ApoB) levels reflect the total number potentially atherogenic particles that can predict cardiovascular risk. The purpose of this study was to assess if the ApoB in obese subjects is associated with inflammatory markers. This cross-sectional study was conducted on 80 obese patients at H. Adam Malik Hospital, Medan, Indonesia. Results: Of the 80 patients studied, the average age was 38.95 + 8.13 years old. There was a strong positive correlation between ApoB and triglycerides (r=0.44, p<0.001), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (r=0.74, p<0.001), and HOMA-IR (r=0.31, p=0.005), however not with the inflammatory markers; adiponectin (r=-0.23, p=0.41) and Chemerin (r=0.021, p=0.851). In obesity, ApoB significantly associated with lipid and insulin resistance, as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease.
