Abstract

Introduction: GI bleeding is a serious illness that can lengthen the time spent in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and increase morbidity and death by up to four times. Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) are agents commonly used in patients to prevent Gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding in ICU. However, nowadays, the use of PPIs to prevent GI bleeding is being concerned due to the emergence of various studies regarding the side effects caused by PPIs. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to see the magnitude of the effectiveness and validate the safety of PPIs. Methods: We searched through PubMed, ScienceDirect, GARUDA Portal, Clinical Key, and Google Scholar databases to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared the effects of PPI administration on the PPI and placebo groups in adults ICU patients. Results: From a total of 8 studies, this meta-analysis shows the effectiveness of PPIs as prophylactic GI bleeding significantly with p < 0.0001, RR = 0.52 (95% CI 0.38-0.71). Regarding safety, PPIs did not significantly increase the risk of pneumonia (p = 0.30, RR = 1.31 (95% CI 0.78-2.20)); and C. difficile infection (p = 0.90, RR = 0.91 (95% CI 0.21-3.85); and it does not impact on the mortality event (p = 0.78; RR 1.01 (95% CI 0.93-1.10). Conclusions: PPIs reduce GI bleeding in ICU patients over the age of 18. PPIs are also safe to use as preventative GI bleeding with no increased risk of pneumonia and C. difficile infection. PPI does not, however, significantly affect the death rates.

Abstract

Introduction: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has become a worldwide medical issue since it is easily transmitted from human to human. The human angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (hACE2) expression gives access to SARS-CoV-2 through its affinity with the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2. Right after the patient has been infected with SARS-CoV-2, subsequently, it may lead to COVID-19 related myocarditis. However, there is still no practical guideline and it significantly affects morbidity and mortality status of COVID-19 patient. In this case report, we are showing challenges in diagnose and treat COVID-19 related myocarditis. Case presentation: A-45 years old man was referred to our hospital from Emergency Hospital for COVID-19 Kemayoran Athletes Village with typical chest pain. He felt a crushing sensation in his chest and it was intensifying every minute. The ECG examination showed ST-segment elevation in all precordial lead and inferior lead. His laboratory work revealed a significant increase of inflammation and cardiac troponin marker. His angiography examination came up with non-significant lesion. Unfortunately, biopsy couldn’t be done due to pandemic limitation. We were diagnosing the patient with COVID-19 related myocarditis and one week after treatment he was discharged from hospital. Currently, there were no diagnostic and treatment guideline for COVID-19 related myocarditis. Conclusion: COVID-19 has become a novel glitch in medical practice situations. Not only lung, but it involves many other organs, and the heart is one of the most common organs involved. One of the cardiac complications of COVID-19 infection is COVID-19 related myocarditis. Currently, there is no guideline in diagnosing and treating COVID-19 related myocarditis and we are encouraging the international society to put an eye on it.

Abstract

Introduction: Smartphone addiction is characterized by a strong attachment to the smartphone that allows the occurrence of social problems and difficulty in performing everyday activities. Cognitive function disruption is one of smartphone addiction’s negative effects, and one component of cognitive function is attention. The prevalence of smartphone addiction in adolescents and young adults was higher since they were relatively more familiar to technology and lacked self-control. The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between smartphone addiction and attention among medical students at Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia. Methods: An analytical, cross-sectional study was conducted with a total of 82 respondents. The respondents were from the 2016, 2017, and 2018 batch of medical students at Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia and were selected by stratified random sampling. The data were gathered using Smartphone Addiction Scale Short Version (SAS-SV) questionnaire, in order to estimate the prevalence of smartphone addiction and the Stroop Test to measure attention. Results. The majority of the subject were female (70,7%) and aged around 17-21 years. The respondents who were addicted to smartphones were 48,8%, and most respondents who were addicted were using their smartphone for 5-≤7 hours/day (63,3%) and spent their time more on social media (56,7%). The mean attention score was 63,81. The mean attention score for non-smartphone addicts was higher than the addicted ones, but there is no statistically significant correlation between smartphone addiction and attention (p= 0,06). Conclusions. There is no significant correlation between smartphone addiction and attention.
