ABSTRACTMost recent epidemiological, clinical and in vitro studies indicate that there is a therelationship between vitamin D and pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). Low concentration of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) is associated with active and latent pulmonary TB disease.Nevertheless, there is no data about the relationship between vitamin D status andconcentrations of 25(OH)D with severity of pulmonary TB. The aim of this study was toobtain the relationship between proportions of vitamin D and concentrations 25(OH)D withmild, moderate and severe degrees of pulmonary TB lesions. This was a cross-sectional study,137 patients with pulmonary TB and 46, 47 and 44 patients each of mild, moderate and severedegree of pulmonary TB lesions, respectively. Diagnosis of pulmonary TB was based onNational Tuberculosis Control Guideline, Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia.The degree of pulmonary TB lesion was radiologically assessed based on classifications of theNational Tuberculosis and Respiratory Disease Association, New York. Vitamin D status wasdefined according to Holick recommendations. Baseline characteristics of subjects wererecorded and 25(OH)D concentrations were measured in subjects of each groups. Vitamin Dstatus of the subjects were 122 (89.1%) deficiency and 15 (10.9%) insufficiency of vitamin D.The proportions of vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency at mild, moderate and severedegree of pulmonary TB lesions were also not significantly different, i.e. 84.8% and 15.2%,91.5% and 8.5%, 90.9% and 9.1%, respectively. Concentrations of 25 (OH) D in each groupof mild, moderate and severe pulmonary TB lesions were not significantly different, with amean (SD) 12.96 (5.83)ng/mL, 12.42 (5.13)ng/mL, and 11.29 (5.61)ng/mL respectively. It isconcluded that vitamin D status and serum 25 (OH) D were not related to the degree ofpulmonary TB lesion. The proportion of vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency at mild,moderate and severe degree of pulmonary TB lesions were also not significantly different, i.e.84.8% and 15.2%, 91.5% and 8.5%, 90.9% and 9.1%, respectively."

"Hand eczema (HE) adalah peradangan kulit tangan yang umum terjadi pada pekerjaan tertentu, termasuk di pelayanan kesehatan. Insidensi HE pada tenaga medis meningkat di era pandemi Covid-19 akibat peningkatan praktik hand hygiene. Vitamin D merupakan salah satu vitamin larut lemak yang memiliki berbagai pengaruh terhadap kulit, khususnya pada kondisi inflamasi. Vitamin D berperan dalam proses proliferasi dan diferensiasi epidermis serta berkaitan dengan imunitas kulit dan penyembuhan luka. Kadar rendah vitamin D diduga berkaitan dengan HE dan derajat keparahannya. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis korelasi antara derajat keparahan HE dan kadar vitamin D yang diukur dengan 25(OH)D serum pada tenaga medis di RSUPN Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo (RSCM) Jakarta. Penelitian ini merupakan studi deskriptif analitik dengan desain potong lintang. Populasi target penelitian adalah tenaga medis RSCM dengan HE yang dipilih menggunakan metode consecutive sampling berdasarkan kriteria penerimaan dan penolakan. Penilaian keparahan HE dilakukan dengan instrumen Hand Eczema Severity Index (HECSI) dan pengukuran kadar 25(OH)D serum dilakukan dengan pengambilan darah vena perifer. Analisis statistik yang sesuai dilakukan untuk membuktikan hipotesis penelitian. Nilai p<0,05 dianggap signifikan secara statistik. Di antara 44 sampel tenaga medis dengan HE, 29 orang mengalami HE ringan, 11 orang mengalami HE sedang, dan 4 orang mengalami HE berat. Rerata kadar 25(OH)D serum untuk seluruh SP adalah 17,50 ng/mL yang termasuk ke dalam kategori defisiensi vitamin D. Rerata kadar 25(OH)D serum pada SP dengan HE ringan adalah 17,85 ng/mL, pada HE sedang sebesar 16,45 ng/mL, dan pada HE berat sebesar 17,87 ng/mL. Tidak terdapat korelasi yang bermakna antara kadar 25(OH)D serum dengan derajat keparahan HE yang diukur dengan menggunakan HECSI (r = -0,056; p = 0,359). Pada hasil tambahan, tidak ditemukan korelasi bermakna antara skor HECSI dengan skor Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) (r = 0,113; p = 0,232). Median kadar 25(OH)D serum pada SP dokter didapatkan lebih tinggi dibandingkan tenaga medis nondokter dengan nilai yang bermakna secara statistik (23,00 vs 14,00; p <0,001). Didapatkan pula rerata berat badan dan indeks massa tubuh (IMT) yang lebih tinggi pada kelompok SP dengan status vitamin D defisiensi dibandingkan nondefisiensi yang bermakna secara statistik (60,74 vs 55,00; p = 0,008 dan 23,74 vs 21,83; p = 0,014). Sebagai kesimpulan, tidak ditemukan korelasi yang bermakna antara kadar 25(OH)D serum dengan derajat keparahan HE pada tenaga medis.

.Hand eczema (HE) is an inflammation of the skin of the hands that commonly occurs in certain occupations, including healthcare services. The incidence of HE in healthcare workers has increased in the era of the Covid-19 pandemic due to increased hand hygiene practices. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that has various effects on the skin, especially in inflammatory conditions. Vitamin D plays a role in the process of proliferation and differentiation of the epidermis and is related to skin immunity and wound healing. Low levels of vitamin D are thought to be related to HE and its severity. This study aims to analyze the correlation between the severity of HE and vitamin D levels as measured by serum 25(OH)D in healthcare workers at RSUPN Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo (RSCM) Jakarta. This is an analytic descriptive study with a cross-sectional design. The target population of the study were RSCM healthcare workers with HE who were selected using the consecutive sampling method based on acceptance and rejection criteria. Assessment of the severity of HE was carried out using the Hand Eczema Severity Index (HECSI) instrument and measurement of serum 25(OH)D levels was done by drawing peripheral venous blood. Appropriate statistical analyzes were performed to prove the research hypotheses. A p-value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Among the 44 samples of healthcare workers with HE, 29 people had mild HE, 11 people had moderate HE, and 4 people had severe HE. The mean serum 25(OH)D level for all subjects was 17.50 ng/mL which belonged in the vitamin D deficiency category. The mean serum 25(OH)D level in subjects with mild, moderate, and severe HE was 17.85 ng/mL, 16.45 ng/mL, and 17.87 ng/mL, respectively. There was no statistically significant correlation between serum 25(OH)D levels and HE severity measured using HECSI (r = -0.056; p = 0.359). In additional results, no significant correlation was found between the HECSI score and the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) score (r = 0.113; p = 0.232). The median level of serum 25(OH)D among physicians was found to be higher than non-physicians healthcare workers with a statistically significant value (23.00 vs 14.00; p <0.001). The average body weight and body mass index (BMI) were also found to be higher in the subject group with vitamin D deficiency status compared to non-deficiency which was statistically significant (60.74 vs 55.00; p = 0.008 and 23.74 vs 21.83; p = 0.014). In conclusion, no statistically significant correlation was found between serum 25(OH)D levels and the severity of HE among healthcare workers as measured by HECSI."

"Vitamin D memiliki efek mempertahankan fungsi endovaskular dan mengatur aktivitas inflamasi dalam dinding pembuluh darah. Lemak viseral, disebutkan sebagai prediktor risiko yang baik untuk penyakit vaskular karena berperan aktif secara metabolik serta bersifat meningkatkan pengeluaran sitokin proinflamasi Kedua hal ini berpengaruh dalam peningkatan risiko kejadian stroke akut.

Vitamin D has effects in maintaining endovascular function and regulating inflammatory activity in the vascular wall. Visceral fat is said to be a good risk predictor for vascular disease because it plays a metabolically active role and increases the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, both of which are influential in increasing the risk of acute stroke events. Studies that discuss the correlation between these two factors are still inconsistent.  A cross-sectional study was conducted on subjects aged >18 years with acute stroke who underwent treatment at Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital and University of Indonesia Hospital. Measurement of visceral fat levels using bioelectrical impedance analysis bedridden multifrequency. Assessment of serum vitamin D (25(OH)D) levels using chemiluminescent immunoassay method.  In a total of 73 subjects, 55 (75.3%) subjects had vitamin D insufficiency and 15 (20,5%) subject had deficiency, with mean values at 17.08±7.85 ng/mL. A total of 78.1% of subjects had high visceral fat levels. There was a significant (p<0.021) negative correlation (r= -0.271) between visceral fat and serum vitamin D levels in acute stroke. In a further multivariate analysis, visceral fat content and type of clothing (concealing clothing) was found to be the most significant factor in assessing serum vitamin D levels. There is a significant correlation between visceral fat levels and 25 (OH) vitamin D levels in acute stroke patients."

"Latar belakang:Penelitian sebelumnya menunjukkan bahwa kemungkinan mekanisme pengaruh pajanan timbel terhadap tekanan darah dan penyakit ginjal kronis adalah melalui Sistem Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosteron (RAAS). Aktivitas Plasma Renin (PRA) dan Plasma Aldosteron merupakan dapat digunakan sebagai penanda dini untuk gangguan ginjal awal akibat pajanan timbel. Penelitian juga menunjukkan bahwa vitamin D sebagai antioksidan memiliki peran penting dalam aksis RAAS dan dalam mencegah stres oksidatif akibat pajanan timbel. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis korelasi antara pajanan timbel, 25(OH)D, dan Renin-Aldosteron pada pekerja.MetodeDalam penelitian cross-sectional ini, kami menyelidiki korelasi antara kadar timbel dalam darah (BLL), 25(OH)D, PRA, dan Aldosteron pada pekerja laki-laki di empat lokasi yang diketahui terpajan timbel sebelumnya atau saat ini pada area kegiatan daur ulang baterai asam timbel di Jawa, Indonesia. Penelitian ini dilakukan dari bulan Mei hingga Juli 2023. HasilBLL ditemukan pada semua subjek, dengan nilai terkecil 1,17 ug/dL dan terbesar 58,83 ug/dL. Kami menemukan BLL berkorelasi positif dengan kadar 25(OH)D (r = 0,206, p = 0,043) dan rasio renin aldosteron (r = 0,203, p = 0,046), serta berkorelasi negatif dengan PRA (r = -0,266, p = 0,009). Kami juga menemukan rasio BLL-25(OH)D berkorelasi negatif dengan PRA (r= -0,256, p=0,011)KesimpulanPenelitian ini menemukan bahwa median BLL di antara para pekerja lebih tinggi dari yang direkomendasikan BEI.Terdapat korelasi positif antara BLL dan kadar 25(OH)D, hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pajanan timbel dengan vitamin D bergantung pada dosis dan hubungan antara keduanya saling berinteraksi satu sama lain. BLL dan PRA ditemukan signifikan namun berkorelasi negatif. BLL dan aldosteron tidak signifikan dan tidak berkorelasi. BLL memiliki korelasi positif dengan rasio aldosteron-renin. BLL dapat menyebabkan hiperaldosteronisme relatif.

Background:

Previous studies showed that a possible mechanism effect of lead exposure on blood pressure and chronic kidney disease is through the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS) axis. Plasma Renin Activity (PRA) and Plasma Aldosterone are the possible markers of early renal disorders due to lead exposure. Studies also showed that Vitamin D as an antioxidant has a vital role in the RAAS axis and in preventing oxidative stress due to pollutant exposure. This study aimed to analyze the correlation between lead exposure, 25(OH)D, and Renin-Aldosterone in workers' settings.

Method

In this cross-sectional study, we investigated the correlation between blood lead level (BLL), 25 (OH)D, PRA, and Aldosterone among male workers in four locations with known previous or present exposure to lead in lead acid battery recycling activity areas in Java, Indonesia. The study was conducted from May to July 2023.

Result

BLL were found in all subjects, with the smallest value of 1.17 ug/dL and the largest of 58.83 ug/dL. We found BLL a positive correlation with 25(OH)D levels (r=0,206, p=0,043) and aldosterone renin-ratio (r=0.203, p=0.046), and a negative correlation with PRA (r= -0.266, p=0.009). We also found BLL-25(OH)D ratio a negative correlation with PRA(r=-0.256, p=0.011)

Conclusion

This study found that the median BLL among the workers was higher than the recommended BEI.

There is a positive correlation between BLL and 25(OH)D levels, the results of this study indicate that lead exposure to vitamin D is dose-dependent and the relationship between them is interacting with each other. BLL and PRA were found to be significant but negatively correlated. BLL and aldosterone were not significant and not correlated. BLL have a positive correlation with the aldosterone-renin ratio. BLL may cause relative hyperaldosteronism.

Tujuan: 1 Mengetahui rerata kadar vitamin D pada anak dengan rinitis alergi; 2 Membandingkan rerata kadar vitamin D pada anak dengan rinitis alergi dan anak pada populasi normal; 3 Mengetahui rerata kadar 25 OH D serum sesuai dengan tingkat keparahan rinitis alergiMetode: Penelitian potong lintang pada 60 anak usia 6-18 tahun yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan berkunjung ke RSCM dan RSI Pondok Kopi. Seluruh subyek dibagi menjadi kelompok rinitis alergi n=30 dan kontrol n=30 . Kemudian, dilakukan pemeriksaan kadar 25 OH D serum dengan cara CLIA chemiluminescence immunoassay . Kadar 25 OH D serum normal, insufisiensi, dan defisiensi lalu dihubungkan dengan RA berdasarkan lama gejala yaitu intermiten dan persisten. Hasil: Rerata kadar vitamin D pada anak dengan rinitis alergi didapatkan 17,75 SB 5,60 ng/mL. Tidak terdapat perbedaan bermakna antara rerata kadar vitamin D di kelompok RA 17,75 5,60 ng/mL dengan kelompok kontrol 19,22 6,11 ng/mL , p=0,336. Didapatkan hubungan bermakna antara rerata kadar vitamin D pada rinitis intermiten 22,82 4,59 ng/mL dengan rinitis persisten 15,22 4,19 ng/mL , p

ABSTRACT

Background. Allergic rhinitis AR was a global health problem with high prevalence in children. Recently, vitamin D deficiency in children was found to have a correlation with immune system dysregulation, which leads to more severe symptoms of AR. Association between vitamin D serum level and AR incidence is needed to prevent further complications.Aim. 1 to recognize mean vitamin D serum level in children with AR 2 to compare mean vitamin D serum level in children with AR and normal children population 3 to find out mean vitamin D serum level according to severity level of AR.Methods. A cross sectional study was performed in 60 children aged 6 18 years old, who meet the inclusion criteria and visit CM hospital and Islamic Pondok Kopi hospital. All subjects were divided into 2 groups AR group n 30 and control group n 30 . Blood were taken for 25 OH D serum level examination with CLIA method. Association between 25 OH D serum level normal, insufficiency, deficiency and severity level of AR intermittent and persistent was then being analyzed.Results. Mean vitamin D serum level in children with AR was 17,75 SD 5,60 ng mL. There was no significant difference between mean vitamin D serum level in AR group 17,75 5,60 ng mL and control group 19,22 6,11 ng mL , p 0,336. Association was found between mean vitamin D serum level in intermittent rhinitis 22,82 4,59 ng mL and persistent rhinitis 15,22 4,19 ng mL , p"
