"Latar belakang. Pandemi COVID-19 dapat menyebabkan peningkatan masalah psikososial pada remaja dari populasi umum. Talasemia merupakan penyakit kronik yang banyak ditemukan pada anak dan remaja di Indonesia. Pasien dengan penyakit kronik rmerupakan kelompok yang rentan mengalami peningkatan masalah psikososial selama pandemi COVID-19. Peningkatan masalah psikososial menyebabkan risiko peningkatan morbiditas dan penurunan kualitas hidup. Pandemi juga dapat berdampak pada praktik transfusi darah pasien talasemia. Saat ini belum diketahui gambaran masalah psikososial dan praktik transfusi darah pada remaja talasemia mayor di Indonesia selama masa pandemi COVID-19.Tujuan. Mengetahui gambaran masalah psikososial pada remaja dengan talasemia mayor selama pandemi COVID-19 di RS Cipto Mangunkusumo, Jakarta, dan dampak pandemi COVID-19 pada praktik transfusi darah di RSCM.Metode. Penelitian ini merupakan studi potong lintang yang dilakukan pada 121 pasien talasemia mayor berusia 10 sampai <18 tahun di RSCM. Penilaian psikososial dilakukan melalui pengisian Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). Penilaian depresi dilakukan melalui pengisian Children’s Depression Inventory (CDI). Analisis komparatif kategorikal berpasangan dilakukan untuk menilai perbedaan frekuensi transfusi dan nilai rerata Hb pretransfusi sebelum dan selama pandemi COVID-19.Hasil. Sebanyak 11,6% remaja talasemia mayor memiliki total skor SDQ abnormal dengan gambaran masalah meliputi masalah emosi (18,2%), masalah conduct (9,9%), hiperaktivitas (5%), masalah hubungan dengan teman sebaya (8.3%), dan masalah perilaku prososial (1,7%). Sebanyak 19% remaja talasemia mayor mengalami peningkatan gejala depresi berdasarkan penilaian CDI. Tidak terdapat perbedaan bermakna pada frekuensi transfusi sebelum dan selama pandemi COVID-19, tetapi terdapat perbedaan bermakna pada pola interval transfusi pasien (p=0,017) dan nilai rerata Hb pretransfusi (p=0,043) sebelum dan selama pandemi COVID-19. Volume darah yang didapatkan oleh pasien talasemia mayor lebih rendah selama pandemi COVID-19 daripada volume darah yang dibutuhkan yang bermakna secara statistik (p<0,001).Kesimpulan. Skrining masalah psikososial pada remaja talasemia mayor menunjukkan masalah yang paling banyak ditemukan selama masa pandemi COVID-19 adalah masalah emosi dan masalah conduct, dengan sejumlah pasien mengalami peningkatan gejala depresi. Pandemi COVID-19 memberikan dampak pada pola interval transfusi darah oleh pasien talasemia mayor.

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."

"Latar belakang. Hipoparatiroid merupakan salah satu komplikasi yang terjadi pada talasemia mayor akibat deposisi besi di kelenjar paratiroid. Sampai dengan saat ini belum diketahui berapa prevalens hipoparatiroid pada anak talasemia mayor di Indonesia. Keterlambatan dalam diagnosis dan tata laksana dapat menyebabkan risiko terjadinya morbiditas seperti fraktur, osteoporosis, atau kejang. Tujuan. Mengetahui prevalens hipoparatiroid pada pasien talasemia mayor usia 7-12 tahun dan faktor yang memengaruhi.Metode. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian potong lintang yang dilakukan pada 64 pasien talasemia mayor usia 7-12 tahun di RSCM. Pengambilan darah puasa dilakukan untuk menilai kalsium ion (Ca), serum fosfat (P), magnesium, 25-(OH)D3 dan intak paratiroid hormon (iPTH). Subyek diklasifikasikan sebagai hipoparatiroid primer bila mengalami hipokalsemia dan penurunan iPTH, hipoparatiroid subklinis bila hipokalsemia dan atau penurunan 25-(OH)D3 tanpa peningkatan iPTH. Analisis bivariat dan regresi multipel logistik dilakukan untuk menilai faktor risiko hipoparatiroid.Hasil. Rerata usia subyek adalah 9,7(SB 1,6) tahun dengan lelaki 51,6%(n=33). Ditemukan hipoparatiroid primer sebanyak 6/64 (9,4%) subyek (rerata iPTH 11,9(SB 2,3) pg/mL), hipoparatiroid subklinis 34/64 (53,1%) subyek (median iPTH 31,4(20,0-64,0) pg/mL). Kejadian hipoparatiroid lebih banyak ditemukan pada subyek dengan frekuensi transfusi >1x/bulan, kepatuhan kelasi tidak baik dan Hb pre-transfusi <9 g/dL. Namun, berdasarkan hasil analisis regresi logistik hanya lama sakit >5 tahun yang memiliki hubungan bermakna dengan kejadian hipoparatiroid (rasio odd 8,6 interval kepercayaan 2,1-35,7 p=0,003). Terdapat korelasi negatif ringan dan sedang antara nilai rerata feritin (r-0,34, p=0,01) dan saturasi transferin (r=-0,41, p<0,0001) dengan kejadian hipoparatiroid.Kesimpulan. Prevalens hipoparatiroid pada dekade pertama kehidupan pada pasien talasemia mayor di Indonesia cukup tinggi. Lama sakit >5 tahun adalah faktor prediktor yang sangat memengaruhi kejadian hipoparatiroid pada anak talasemia mayor.

Background. Hypoparathyroidism is a complication that occurs in thalassemia major due to iron deposition in the parathyroid glands. Until now, the prevalence of hypoparathyroidsm in children with thalassemia major is unknown. Delay in diagnosis and treatment can increase the risk of developing morbidities such as fractures, osteoporosis, or seizure.

Methods. This study was cross-sectional, conducted on 64 thalassemia major patients, aged 7-12 years, in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital (CMH). Blood samples were collected in fasting to determine Calcium ion (Ca), Phosphorus (P), Magnesium (Mg) , 25-(OH)D3 and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH). Subjects were classified into primary hypoparathyroidism (low Ca and low iPTH), subclinical hypoparathyroidsm (low Ca and/or low 25(OH)D3 without an increase of iPTH). Bivariate analysis and multiple logistic regression were performed to assess risk factors for hypoparathyroidsm.

Result. The mean age of the subjects was 9.7(SD 1.6) years with 51.6% male (n=33). primary hypoparathyroidism was found in 6/64(9.4%) subjects (mean iPTH 11.9(SD 2.3 pg/mL), subclinical hypoparathyroidism in 34/64(53.1%) subjects (median iPTH 31.4(20-64) pg/mL). The prevalence of hypoparathyroidism was more common in subjects with tranfusion frequency >1x/month, poor chelation compliance and pre-transfusion haemoglobin <9 g/dL. However, based on the results of logistic regression analysis, only duration of illness >5 years had a significant relationship with hypoparathyroidism (odds ratio 8.6, confidence inrerval 2.1-35.7 p=0.003). There was a mild and moderate negative correlation between the mean value of ferritin (r=-0.34, p=0.01) and transferrin saturation (r=-0.41, p<0.0001) with hypoparathyroidism.

Conclusion. The prevalence of hypoparathyroidism in the first decade of life in thalassemia major in Indonesia is quite high. Duration of illness >5 years is a predictor factor that greatly influences the incidence of hypoparathyroidism in children with thalassemia major."

Background: Postoperative mortality and severe respiratory complications have been documented in COVID-19 patients in various studies. However, no studies specifically evaluate the outcome of emergency laparotomy with gastrointestinal perforation during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic.Methods: The study was conducted with a retrospective observational design from December 2020-February 2021. Patients with gastrointestinal perforations aged more than 15 years who underwent emergency laparotomy were included in the study. The outcomes evaluated were mortality and morbidity, which included acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), reoperation, duration of hospital stay, sepsis, admission to the intensive care room (ICU), and surgical site infections (SSI).Results: There were 117 post-laparotomy patients recruited, with 95 (81.2%) COVID-19 negative patients. The median ages for the non-COVID group and the COVID group were 41 (14¬92) years and 39 (15¬77) years. General mortality was recorded at 23.9%. Patients with perforated COVID-19 who underwent laparotomy had a higher risk of dying, ARDS, and sepsis, as well as receiving re-surgery than non-COVID-19 patients, with an odds risk of 2.769 each (95% CI; 1,032–7,434), 8,50 (95% CI; 2,939–24,583), 3.36 (95% CI; 1,292–8,735), and 3.69 (95% CI; 1,049¬ – 13,030). There was no difference between gastrointestinal perforated patients with confirmed COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 patients in terms of risk of SSI, length of stay, and admission to the ICU. Age, sepsis, and ARDS are significant prognostic factors for COVID-19 mortality.Conclusion: Post-laparotomy confirmed gastrointestinal perforation patients with COVID-19 have a higher risk of mortality, ARDS, sepsis, and undergoing reoperation than non-COVID-19 patients."

"Setidaknya 1 dari 200 pasien COVID-19 akan mengalami DVT, dan sekitar 20% kasus VTE berhubungan dengan COVID-19. Risikonya meningkat empat kali lipat pada pasien COVID-19. Munculnya berbagai faktor patofisiologis yang berkontribusi terhadap terjadinya DVT pada pasien COVID-19 menimbulkan pertanyaan menarik mengenai perbedaan dalam karakteristik luaran pasien DVT sebelum dan selama pandemi, serta variasi dalam perawatan dan hasil pasien. Desain penelitian yang digunakan adalah studi kohort retrospektif untuk melihat perbandingan karakteristik dan manajemen pasien DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis) sebelum dan selama pandemi COVID-19. Didapatkan data 489 subyek yang diikutsertakan dalam penelitian ini dengan nilai rata-rata usianya adalah 50.72 ± 18.00. Berdasarkan waktu terkenanya DVT, dari 489 subyek tersebut, sebagian besar sampel yaitu sebanyak 344 orang (72.9%) merupakan pasien yang mengalami DVT selama pandemi COVID. Berdasarkan status mortalitas, terdapat 336 orang (71.8%) yang masih hidup setelah mengalami DVT. Berdasarkan keberadaan perdarahan hebat, sebagian besar subyek yaitu 402 orang (82.2%) tidak mengalami perdarahan hebat. Berdasarkan status rekurensi, terdapat 321 orang (65.7%) yang mengalami rekurensi yaitu kembali dirawat dengan diagnosa yang sama dalam 1 tahun pertama setelah pertama kali dirawat. Sebanyak 479 orang (97.9%) tidak mengalami emboli paru. Didapatkan nilai rata-rata durasi rawat inap selama 13.41 ± 9.89 hari. Berdasarkan hasil pemeriksaan D-Dimer, didapatkan nilai rata-rata 3008.21 ± 1494.59 ng/mL. Sedangkan hasil pemeriksaan fibrinogen, didapatkan nilai rata-rata 301.06 ± 58.63 mg/dL. Dalam melihat komparasi data DVT sebelum dan selama pandemic COVID-19, dari 4 variabel yang dilihat, hanya D-Dimer yang memiliki perbedaan yang signifikan berupa peningkatan nilai rata-rata apabila dibandingkan antara sebelum pandemic COVID (2052.34 ± 568.30 ng/mL) dan selama COVID (3363.89 ± 1573.79 ng/mL) dengan nilai p < 0.001. Hasil berbeda terjadi pada fibrinogen yang tidak memiliki perbedaan yang signifikan antara sebelum pandemic COVID (295.66 ± 57.28 mg/dL) dibandingkan dengan selama COVID (303.06 ± 59.08 mg/dL) dengan nilai p 0.223. Ditemukan bahwa pada pasien COVID-19 didapati nilai D-Dimer yang lebih tinggi (nilai p <0.001) serta fibrinogen yang lebih tinggi secara signifikan (p=0.032).

At least 1 in 200 COVID-19 patients will experience DVT, and approximately 20% of VTE cases are related to COVID-19. The risk increases fourfold in COVID-19 patients. The emergence of various pathophysiological factors that contribute to the occurrence of DVT in COVID-19 patients raises interesting questions regarding differences in the outcome characteristics of DVT patients before and during the pandemic, as well as variations in patient care and outcomes. The research design used was a retrospective cohort study to compare the characteristics and management of DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis) patients before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Data were obtained for 489 subjects who were included in this study with an average age value of 50.72 ± 18.00. Based on the time of DVT, of the 489 subjects, the majority of the sample, namely 344 people (72.9%) were patients who experienced DVT during the COVID pandemic. Based on mortality status, there were 336 people (71.8%) who were still alive after experiencing DVT. Based on the presence of severe bleeding, the majority of subjects, namely 402 people (82.2%) did not experience severe bleeding. Based on recurrence status, there were 321 people (65.7%) who experienced recurrence, namely being treated again with the same diagnosis within the first year after first being treated. A total of 479 people (97.9%) did not experience pulmonary embolism. The average duration of hospitalization was 13.41 ± 9.89 days. Based on the results of the D-Dimer examination, an average value of 3008.21 ± 1494.59 ng/mL was obtained. Meanwhile, the results of the fibrinogen examination showed an average value of 301.06 ± 58.63 mg/dL. In looking at the comparison of DVT data before and during the COVID-19 pandemic, of the 4 variables looked at, only D-Dimer had a significant difference in the form of an increase in the average value when compared between before the COVID pandemic (2052.34 ± 568.30 ng/mL) and during COVID (3363.89 ± 1573.79 ng/mL) with p value < 0.001. Different results occurred in fibrinogen which did not have a significant difference between before the COVID pandemic (295.66 ± 57.28 mg/dL) compared to during COVID (303.06 ± 59.08 mg/dL) with a p value of 0.223. It was found that COVID-19 patients had higher D-Dimer values (p value <0.001) and significantly higher fibrinogen (p=0.032)."

Mean of pra transfusion hemoglobin level in the short stature patients was 8.14 SD 0.93 g dL and normal stature was 8.07 SD 0.86 g dL p 0.68 . Conclusion there is a significant association between serum ferritin level and growth retardation, but there is no significant association between transferrin saturation and pra transfusion hemoglobin level with growth retardation."

"Latar belakang: Sarkopenia menjadi masalah kesehatan yang penting dan banyak di jumpai di negara maju dan berkembang. Faktor risiko sarkopenia bersifat multifaktor. Data prevalensi dan faktor risiko sarkopenia di Indonesia masih terbatas, khususnya dimasa pandemi COVID-19 yang sudah dihadapi Indonesia selama dua tahun. Tujuan: Mengetahui proporsi dan faktor risiko sarkopenia pada populasi usia lanjut di RSUPN Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumopada masa pandemi COVID-19.Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan data primer dengan desain uji potong lintang di poliklinik geriatri dan penyakit dalam RSUPN Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo mulai dari bulan November hingga Desember 2021. Subjek dengan kriteria usia >60 tahun, tidak terdapat gangguan penyakit akut saat pemeriksaan, serta tidak mengalami depresi atau gangguan kognitif berat yang tidak didampingi caregiver/keluarga diambil sebagai subjek penelitian. Pemeriksaan menggunakan kuesioner SARC-F, dan pasien dengan nilai 4 dianggap sarkopenia. Karakteristik pasien dengan sarkopenia dibandingkan untuk menilai faktor risiko sarkopenia. Hasil:  Terdapat 253 subjek penelitian dengan proporsi sarkopenia 41,5% (IK 95% 35,45-47,55%). Faktor risiko yang berhubungan dengan sarkopenia pada penelitian ini adalah jenis kelamin perempuan, aktivitas menurun (sedentary-aktifitas kurang), status fungsional ketergantungan, penyakit hipertensi, dan penyakit jantung (p < 0.05)Kesimpulan: Proporsi sarkopenia pada penelitian adalah 41,5% dengan faktor risiko yang berhubungan adalah jenis kelamin, hipertensi, penyakit jantung, status fungsional ketergantungan dan aktivitas yang menurun (sedentary-aktifitas kurang). Oleh sebab itu perlu menjadi perhatian dan pencegahan pada subjek dengan karakteristik tersebut.

Introduction: Sarcopenia is a prevalent and increasing problem in elderly worldwide. It is also related to various debilitating conditions and poor prognosis. Etiology of sarcopenia is multifactorial. However, the data in Indonesia is still limited. Moreover, not much has been discussed about the prevalence and risk factors for sarcopenia, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Aim: To determine the prevalence and risk factors of sarcopenia in elderly patients in Indonesia during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods: An observational study with cross-sectional design was performed in Geriatric and internal medicine Clinic, Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta, Indonesia, on November 2021 to December 2021. Patients 60 years old and suspected to have sarcopenia were included in the study, while patients with conditions making them unable to undergo examination or in acute conditions were excluded. Patients were defined as having sarcopenia if SARC-F showed a total value of 4. Clinical characteristics of patients were compared to predict sarcopenia.

Results: There were 253 subjects included in this study. A total of 105 (41.5%) subjects were diagnosed to suffer from sarcopenia. Predicting factors of sarcopenia in subjects were woman gender, sedentary physical activity, dependent on activities of daily living, hypertension, and heart disease (p < 0.05).

Conclusion: The prevalence of sarcopenia in elderly at Cipto Mangunkusumo was 41.5%. Indonesian elderly with female gender, sedentary-low physical activity, dependent on activities of daily living, hypertension, and heart disease are more prone to suffer from sarcopenia. Therefore, extra attention and prevention are needed for individuals with the characteristics."
