Thalassemia is an inherited hemolytic anemia disease and is a genetic disease most commonly found in the world. Treatment with transfusion and chelation therapy in thalassemia patients provides a longer survival rate. One of periodic transfusion complications is an increase in iron in the pituitary. Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism which has a clinical picture of delayed puberty is a major abnormality in the endocrine system in pediatric thalassemia patients. MRI imaging is useful in assessing iron deposits in the pituitary.

Purpose: To determine the ability of T2 and T2 relaxometry sequences of pituitary in assessing pituitary iron deposits which have a clinical picture of delayed puberty Methods: Using a comparative cross sectional design with primary data, with minimum sample of 28 patients. Analysis of data in determining the cut point was using the reciver operating curve (ROC) method and then calculated the sensitivity and specificity.

Result : T2 and T2 relaxometry values of pituitary iron deposit in the delayed puberty group were significantly lower than in the normal puberty group. The T2 relaxometry cut-off point for pituitary iron deposit to differentiate delayed and normal puberty is 78.15 ms with estimated sensitivity and specificity of 92.9% and 75.0%, respectively. The T2 relaxometry cut-off point for pituitary iron deposit to delayed and normal puberty is 20.19 ms with an estimated sensitivity and specificity of both is 100%. Conclutions: T2 and T2 relaxometry values of pituitary iron deposit can enhance the role of MRI in detecting the rate of puberty in patients with transfusion dependent thalassemia so patients with severe pituitary iron deposit and whom predicted with delayed puberty could have optimal therapy."

Background. The COVID-19 pandemic may increase the risk of psychosocial problems in adolescents from general population. Thallasemia is highly prevalent chronic disease in children and adolescents in Indonesia. Patients with chronic disease are vulnerable to have more psychosocial problems during the COVID-19 pandemic. An increase in psychosocial problems may lead to high morbidity and the risk of decreased quality of life. The pandemic can also have an impact on the transfusion practice of thalassemia patients. The psychosocial problems and its impact on transfusion practice in adolescents with thalassemia major during the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia have not been established.

Objectives. To evaluate the magnitude of psychosocial problems in adolescents with thalassemia major during the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the transfusion practice at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta.

Methods. This is a cross-sectional study on 121 thalassemia mayor patients aged 10-<18 years old at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. Psychosocial aspect was evaluated using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) form. Depression was further assessed using the Children’s Depression Inventory (CDI) form. A comparative paired categorical analysis was performed to analyze the difference between before and during the COVID-19 pandemic concerning transfusion frequency and average pretransfusion haemoglobin.

Results. There are 11,6% thalassemia major adolescents with abnormal total SDQ scores including emotional problems (18,2%), conduct problems (9,9%), hiperactivity (5%), peer problems (8.3%), dan prosocial behavior problems (1,7%).  Nineteen percents thalassemia major adolescents experienced elevated number of depressive symptoms. There was no significant difference between before and during the COVID-19 pandemic concerning transfusion frequency, but there were significant difference between before and during the COVID-19 pandemic concerning blood transfusion pattern (p=0,017) and average pretransfusion haemoglobin (p=0,043). The blood volume obtained by thalassemia major patients was also lower during the COVID-19 pandemic than the required blood volume that is statiscally significant(p<0,001).

Conclusion. Psychosocial screening in adolescents with thalassemia major during the COVID-19 pandemic showed that the most common problems encountered were emotional problems and conduct problems, with a number of patients experiencing elevated symptoms of depression. The pandemic had an impact on the blood transfusion pattern for thalassemia major patients."
