Latar belakang. Infeksi Cytomegalovirus (CMV) kongenital merupakan faktor non genetik yang paling sering menjadi penyebab terjadinya ketulian sensorineural pada bayi dan anak. Infeksi CMV dapat memberikan tanda dan gejala namun dapat juga tidak memberikan gejala pada yang terinfeksi. Ketulian akibat infeksi CMV kongenital tidak memiliki konfigurasi patognomik sehingga penelitian terhadap infeksi CMV kongenital pada pendengaran masih sangat diperlukan. Pengetahuan tentang ketulian akibat infeksi CMV kongenital di negara-negara luar yang semakin berkembang membuat peneliti ingin mengetahui bagaimana gambaran gangguan pendengaran anak dengan infeksi CMV kongenital di Indonesia, khususnya RS Cipto Mangunkusumo. Tujuan. Mengetahui gambaran gangguan pendengaran pada anak usia 0-5 tahun yang mengalami infeksi CMV kongenital berdasarkan pemeriksaan DPOAE dan BERA click. Metode. Penelitian cross sectional ini dilakukan di RSUPN Cipto Mangunkusumo pada bulan November 2015-Mei 2016 pada 27 subjek anak usia 0-5 tahun yang telah didiagnosa terinfeksi CMV kongenital. Hasil. Gambaran gangguan fungsi pendengaran pada subjek anak usia 0-5 tahun dengan infeksi CMV kongenital berdasarkan pemeriksaan DPOAE dan BERA click pada unit telinga adalah tuli sensorineural sebanyak 58,0%. Didapatkan hubungan yang bermakna secara statistik (p = 0,002) antara keterlambatan tumbuh kembang dengan terjadinya tuli sensorineural. Keterlambatan tumbuh kembang memiliki risiko 6,57 (CI 95%; 1,88 – 22,87) kali lebih besar dibandingkan pasien dengan tumbuh kembang normal untuk mengalami gangguan pendengaran sensorineural.

ABSTRACT
Background. Congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a non genetical factor that is most commonly found asthe etiology of sensorineural hearing loss in infants and children. CMV does not always cause signs and symptoms.Hearing loss caused by CMV infection does not have a patognomonic configuration hence further research is needed. The development on the knowledge on hearing loss caused by congenital CMV infection in foreign countriesis the reason the author decide to investigate on the profile of hearing impairment in children with congenital CMV infection in Indonesia, especially in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. Purpose. To know the profile of hearing impairment in children age 0-5 years old with congenital CMV infection based on DPOAE and BERA click. Methods.This cross-sectional study was conducted in Cipto Mangunkusum Hospital since November 2015-May 2016 in 27 subjects, children age 0-5 years old with congenital CMV infection. Results.Hearing impairment in subjects children age 0-5 years old with congenital CMV inefection, based on DPOAE and BERA click on ear unitsis 58,0% with sensorineural hearing loss. There is a significant relationship (p=0,002) between developmental delay and the incidence of sensorineural hearing loss. Developmental delay has a 6,57 times (CI 95%; 1,88 – 22,87) higher the risk for subjects to experience sensorineural hearing loss compared to normal development.;

Background Prodromal factors of Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) are often associated with previous viral infection (60%). The ailment supported by the acquired immunomediated disorder concept. Viral hepatitis is very rarely found in GBS, preceded by cytomegalovirus (15-18%), Campylobacter jejuni (28%), and Epstein-Barr virus (5%). There is no specific etiology of GBS because those viruses usually appear sporadically (subclinically). All hepatitis virus infection can cause neurological complications, including GBS. Case Report We report two cases of hepatitis A virus infection (HAV) in GBS patients in Dr. Sardjito General Hospital during 5 years of observation (1996-2000) from 92 GBS patients. The diagnosis of HAV was based on more than 2 times increment of transaminase enzyme, positive IgM anti HAV, negative HbsAg, and negative IgM ami HCV. The diagnosis of GBS was based on clinical symptoms of acute generalized paralysis, cerebrospinal fluid examination, and electromyelography. In both cases, sub-clinical and sporadic symptoms appeared several days before paralysis, which makes it more likely that the prodromal period of GBS occurred at the same time of HAV incubation period. Discussion The incidence of HAV in GBS patients during 5 years of observation was 2%. This corresponds with the case reported by Verona et al, 1996 and Pelletier et al, 1985, i.e. the presence of peripheral neuropathy (n. facialis and n. occulomotorius). Possible alternative pathways for hepatitis virus complicating as GBS are perivascular and endometrial peripheral nerve infiltration by mononuclear cells, T cell sensitization, stimulation of IL-2 growth factor surface receptor, and B cell stimulation. All of the conditions mentioned above causes necrotizing arteritis, vascular occlusion, and at the end, segmental demyelinization. Hepatitis virus may replicate in the central nervous system or peripheral nervous system, subsequently developing into multiple neuropathy disorder and poly arteritis. Conclusion The diagnoses of HAV and GBS in both cases were established. HAV is one of several viruses that may trigger GBS. In both cases, HAV infection was sub-clinical and sporadic. Symptoms of hepatitis infection subsided along with improvements in the patient's neurological status. Acute viral hepatitis has a wide clinical spectrum and laboratory manifestation that is in accordance with the severity, varying from unclear symptom (anicteric) to jaundice. Acute hepatitis A, B, C infections have the same symptoms in general. However, hepatitis B and C tend to be more severe. The mildest symptoms are transaminase enzyme level increment, no jaundice, gastrointestinal symptoms, flu-like symptoms, and sometimes it can not be diagnosed. The more severe symptoms are jaundice with obvious generalized symptoms.' The incidence of hepatitis A is difficult to be determined accurately because of its characters, i.e. sporadic, endemic, and has a high rate of asymptomatic infection.23-4

ABSTRAK
Latar belakang : Cytomegalovirus (CMV) merupakan salah satu infeksi oportunistik pada pasien dengan sindrom immunodefisiensi (AIDS). Gejala klinis dan CT scan tidak dapat menegakkan diagnosa definitif ensefalitis CMV. Oleh karena itu diperlukan uji alternatif untuk menegakkan diagnosis infeksi CMV pada pasien HIV dengan infeksi otak. Salah satu uji yang sensitif dan spesifik adalah Real Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (rPCR). Tujuan : Mendapatkan uji deteksi molekular CMV pada pasien HIV dengan tersangka infeksi otak. Metode : Penelitian dilakukan dalam 3 tahap. Tahap 1 adalah optimasi konsentrasi primer, probe, suhu annealing, volume elusi ekstraksi DNA, dan volume cetakan. Tahap 2 adalah uji spesifisitas (reaksi silang) dan uji sensitivitas (ambang batas deteksi DNA) rPCR dan tahap 3 adalah penerapan uji rPCR yang sudah dioptimasi terhadap sampel plasma, urin, dan LCS. Hasil : Kondisi optimal uji rPCR telah diperoleh dengan konsentrasi primer dan probe 0,1 μM, dengan kondisi suhu reaksi rPCR: aktivasi enzim pada 950C selama 3 menit; 45 siklus pada 950C selama 15 detik (denaturasi) dan 560C selama 1 menit (annealing dan ekstensi). Volume elusi ekstraksi DNA yang optimal untuk ketiga jenis sampel (LCS, plasma dan urin) adalah 40 μL, dan volume cetakan rPCR untuk LCS, plasma, dan urin, masing-masing adalah 5, 4, dan 3 μL. Uji rPCR mampu mendeteksi DNA pada 50.000 jumlah kopi/mL dan tidak bereaksi silang dengan Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Candida spp, Toxoplasma gondii, EBV,HSV,dan VZV. Penerapan uji rPCR pada sampel klinis memberikan hasil negatif pada semua sampel LCS, 72,22% positif pada sampel plasma, dan 72,22% positif pada sampel urin. Kesimpulan: Telah dilakukan optimasi uji rPCR dengan minimal deteksi DNA CMV 50.000 jumlah kopi/mL dan tidak bereaksi silang dengan mikroorganisme yang berpotensi menyebabkan positif palsu (false positive).ABSTRACT
Background: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is one of opportunistic infections in patients with Aquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). Clinical manifestations are not typical, and CT scans can not define encephalitis CMV specifically. Therefore, it is important to apply an alternative assay for sensitive and specific detection of CMV infection in HIV patients with suspected central nervous system (CNS) infections. One of the assays is real time polymerase chain reaction (rPCR). Objective: To obtain a molecular assay for detection of CMV in HIV patients with suspect CNS infections. Methods: This study was conducted in three phases. The first is optimization of concentrations of primers, probe, annealing temperature, final elution of DNA extraction, and volume of PCR template. The second is determinations of sensitivity (minimal detection of DNA) and specificity (cross-reaction) of the optimized rPCR, and the third is application of the rPCR for clinical samples of plasma, urine, and liquor cerebrospinal (LCS). Results: The rPCR reaction showed optimal concentrations of primers and probe at 0.1 μM, with thermal cycler: 950C for 3 min (enzyme activation), followed by 45 cycles of 950C for 15 sec (denaturation) and 560C for 1 min (annealing and extension). Final elution of DNA extraction was 40 μL and volume of PCR templates for urine, plasma, and LCS was 3, 4, and 5 μL, respectively. The rPCR had minimal detection of DNA at 50,000 copies/mL and was not cross-reacted with Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Candida spp, Toxoplasma gondii, Epstein-Bar Virus (EBV), Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) and Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV). Application of rPCR for clinical samples showed that the rPCR yielded 72.22% positive for plasma or urine, and negative for all LCS samples. Conclusion: The rPCR has been optimized in this study with minimal DNA detection at 50,000 copies/mL and was not cross-reacted with other microorganisms that are potential to cause false positive results.;Background: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is one of opportunistic infections in patients with Aquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS).

Aterosklerosis sampai saat ini merupakan penyebab utama morbiditas dan mortalitas di negara maju. Meskipun modifikasi faktor risiko di negara maju telah dapat menurunkan kekerapan aterosklerosis namun penurunan ini mulai menunjukkan grafik yang mendatar. Keadaan ini merangsang para peneliti untuk mencari faktor pajanan lingkungan termasuk faktor infeksi yang dapat mempengaruhi proses aterosklerosis. Telah dilakukan penelitian potong lintang dari bulan Maret 1998 sampai Agustus 1998 terhadap 122 orang pasien yang secara klinis menunjukkan penyakit jantung koroner yang menjalani kateterisasi jantung, terdiri dari 92 orang laki-laki dan 30 orang perempuan dengan rerata umur 55 tahun. Pasien diperiksa secara klinis dan laboratorium (gula darah, kolesterol, trigliserida dan antibodi terhadap C.pneumoniae, Cytomegalovirus dan H.pylori). Pada penelitian ini didapatkan perbedaan kadar kolesterol, trigliserida dan HDL antara kelompok stenosis koroner dan non stenosis. Sedangkan kadar antibodi C.pneumoniae, Cytomegalovirus, H.pylori tidak berbeda bermakna. Penelitian ini belum dapat menyimpulkan pengaruh antibodi terhadap aterosklerosis karena pada kelompok non stenosis tidak dapat disingkirkan kemungkinan terjadinya aterosklerosis mengingat rerata umur subyek penelitian 55 tahun. Penelitian mengenai interaksi infeksi dengan risiko tradisional serta gender dan nutrisi diperlukan untuk mendapat jawaban yang lebih jelas tentang pengaruh infeksi terhadap aterosklerosis.

Atherosclerosis is still the chief cause of morbidity and mortality in developed nations. Even though in developed nations the modification of risk factors is able to reduce the prevalence rate of atherosclerosis, such reduction is starting to slow down. Such condition has stimulated researchers to identify environmental exposure, including infection, that can influence the process of atherosclerosis. This cross sectional study was conducted from March to August 1998, on 122 patients that clinically demonstrate coronary heart disease and have underwent cardiac catheterization, 92 males and 30 females with an average age of 55 years. Patients undergo clinical and laboratory evaluation (blood glucose, cholesterol, triglyceride, and antibody for C.pneumoniae. Cytomegalovirus, and H.pylori). We found a significant difference in cholesterol, triglyceride, and HDL levels in those with coronary stenosis and those without. However, we did not find a significant difference in the levels of C.pneumoniae, Cytomegalovirus, and H.pylori antibodies. This study is unable to conclude the influence of these antibodies on atherosclerosis, since in the non-stenosis group, we cannot eliminate the possibility of atherosclerosis, since the average age of study subject is 55 years. Studies on the interaction between infection and traditional risk factors as well as gender and nutrition is needed to find a clear answer of the influence of infection in atherosclerosis.
