"Latar belakang: Sindrom curah jantung rendah (low cardiac output syndrome, LCOS) merupakan salah satu morbiditas yang terjadi pascaoperasi jantung terbuka. Angka kejadian LCOS pada pasien pascaoperasi sebanyak 25–65%, sehingga diperlukannya suatu penanda biologis praoperatif untuk menilai keadaan pembedahan yang optimal. NT-proBNP merupakan suatu biomarker yang berpotensi digunakan dalam diagnosis, tata laksana dan prognosis pada populasi pediatrik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi peran NT-proBNP sebagai faktor prediktor terhadap kejadian LCOS pascabedah jantung terbuka.Metode: Studi longitudinal dilakukan di Rumah Sakit Jantung dan Pembuluh Darah Harapan Kita dalam periode November 2018 hingga Maret 2020 dengan merekrut subjek di bawah usia 18 tahun yang menjalani operasi korektif kelainan jantung bawaan. Kadar NT-proBNP prabedah diambil dan dianalisis terhadap kejadian LCOS pascaoperasi.Hasil: Terdapat 159 subjek dilibatkan sebagai subjek penelitian. Angka kejadian LCOS pascaoperasi sebanyak 23,9%. Median NT-proBNP prabedah berbeda bermakna antara pasien yang mengalami LCOS dengan pasien yang tidak mengalami LCOS (1592 pg/mL vs. 227 pg/mL; p = 0,001). Nilai cut-off NT-proBNP prabedah terhadap kejadian LCOS pascaoperasi adalah 400 pg/mL, dengan sensitivitas 78,95%, spesifisitas 64,46%, positive predictive value 41,10%, negative predictive value 90,70% dan diagnostic accuracy 67,92%.Simpulan: NT-proBNP prabedah dapat dijadikan faktor prediktor terhadap kejadian LCOS pascaoperasi jantung terbuka. Nilai cut-off NT-proBNP prabedah terhadap luaran LCOS pascaoperasi adalah 400 pg/mL.

Background: Low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) is a common morbidity following open heart surgery in pediatric population. The incidence of postoperative LCOS range from 25 to 65%, indicating the needs for preoperative tool to evaluate optimum condition prior to surgery. NT-proBNP is a biomarker that has potential in diagnosis, management, and prognosis in pediatric population. This study aims to evaluate the role of NT-proBNP as predictive factor for LCOS following cardiac surgery.

Methods: A longitudinal study was conducted in Harapan Kita National Heart Center between November 2018 and March 2020. We recruited subjects below 18 years old who underwent corrective cardiac surgery. NT-proBNP was obtained preoperatively and analyzed for postoperative LCOS.

Results: A total of 159 subjects were enrolled. The incidence of postoperative LCOS was 23.9%. The median of preoperative NT-proBNP was found to be significantly higher in patients experiencing LCOS compared to that of patients without LCOS (1592 pg/mL vs. 227 pg/mL; p = 0.001). The cut-off value for preoperative NT-proBNP to determine postoperative LCOS was 400 pg/mL with sensitivity of 78.95%, specificity of 64.46%, positive predictive value of 41.10%, negative predictive value of 90.70% and diagnostic accuracy of 67.92%.

Conclusions: Preoperative NT-proBNP can be used as predictor for postoperative LCOS following cardiac surgery. The cut-off value of preoperative NT-proBNP in determining postoperative LCOS was found to be 400 pg/mL."

"Pada era modern ini, terdapat perubahan drastic dalam pola makan sehari-hari. Kebanyakan orang cenderung mengkonsumsi lebih banyak makanan siap saji dan minuman dengan pemanis rasa karena kepraktisan dan harga yang relatif murah dengan rasa yang cukup memuaskan. Makanan dan minuman tersebut mengandung banyak gula dan minyak yang kemungkinan dapat menyebabkan berbagai kelainan dalam tubuh terutama di hati. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengkaji akibat dari konsumsi gula dan minyak yang berlebihan terhadap kadar glukosa dan kolesterol dalam darah serta perubahan yang terjadi pada hati. Penelitian dilakukan dengan metoda eksperimental dengan menggunakan dua puluh tikus jenis Sprague Dawley dibagi menjadi 4 grup; 2 kontrol dan 2 terapi. Subjek kemudian dicekok dengan 5 ml gula atau minyak secara bergantian setiap 2 hari. Data yang dikumpulkan termasuk kadar glukosa dan kolesterol darah yg diambil 3 hari sekali serta persentase lemak dalam hati dan penebalan dinding pembuluh darah. Setelah 1 bulan intervensi, grup terapi 1 menunjukkan penaikkan yang signifikan pada kadar glukosa, kolesterol, persentase deposisi lemak dan jumlah penebalan pembuluh darah (p<0.05). Hasil yang serupa juga didapatkan untuk kadar glukosa dan kolesterol pada grup terapi 2. Namun, pada grup ini, hasil persentase deposisi lemak dan jumlah penebalan pembuluh darah tidak signifikan (p>0.05). Walaupun terdapat peningkatan pada kadar glukosa dan kolesterol, peningkatan tersebut masih dalam batas normal. Peningkatan yang signifikan pada kadar lemak hati dan penebalan pembuluh darah dapat menyebabkan perlemakan hati dan atherosklerosis.

Global modernization has induced remarkable changes in eating pattern. People nowadays tend to consume more fast food and sweetened beverages as they are convenience and widely available, less time and money consuming with satisfactory tastes. These foods as well as beverages usually contain high amount sugar and fat that have effects on the body including liver. This study was conducted to explore the effects of extensive intake of sugar and fat on blood glucose and cholesterol level as well as changes in liver. Research was conducted with experimental method using twenty Sprague Dawley rats which were divided into 4 groups; 2 controls and 2 treatments. Rats were given 5 ml sugar or lard alternatively every 2 consecutive days for 1-month and 2-month respectively. Data retrieved include blood glucose and cholesterol level taken every 3 days as well as fatty liver percentage and blood vessel thickening after intervention through HE staining. After 1-month intervention, treatment group1 has significant increase in blood glucose, blood cholesterol level, percentage of fatty liver and number of thickened blood vessels (p<0.05). Likewise, 2-month intervention group also reported increase in blood glucose level and blood cholesterol level (p<0.05). However, there were no significant differences in fatty liver percentages and blood vessels thickening in the 2-month group (p>0.05). Although there were increases in blood glucose and cholesterol level, these increases were still within normal limits. Fat deposition and amount of thickened blood vessels were significantly increased after intervention that may progress to hepatic steatosis and atherosclerosis. "
