"Background: The determination of branched chain amino acids (BCAA) to tyrosine ratio (BTR) was available in making differentiation of chronic hepatitis from liver cirrhosis, because there was a strong association between BTR and staging (fibrosis) scores. Branched chain ammo acids to tvrosine ratio have a correlation with Fischer ratio and the examination is easier because it can be done by enzymatic assay.Materials and Methods: To evaluate the correlation between BTR and Child-Pugh score, we examined the amino gram of 52 liver cirrhosis patients consisted of 26 Child-Pugh A, 19 Child-Pugh B, and 7 Child-Pugh C. The examination of amino gram was done by High Pressure Liquid Chromatograph (HPLC) analyzer. Branched chain amino acids to tyrosine ratio were compared to Child-Pugh score, albumin, ammonia level, number connection test to Fischer ratio.Results: Significant differences in BTR among Child-Pugh A, B, C were observed (Child-Pugh A 7.75 ± 1.2; Child Pugh B 6.0 ± 1.23 and Child Pugh C 4.38 + 3.14 (p = 0.000)). Branched chain amino acids to tyrosine ratio had a weak correlation with albumin fr - 0.292; p = 0.036), ammonia level (r = 0.376; p = 0.006) and strong correlation with Fischer ratio (r = 0.818; p = 0.000). There was no significant correlation between BTR and number connection test.Conclusion: These results showed that the determination of the molar ratio of branched chain amino acids to tyrosine well reflected the severity of liver cirrhosis and it can be used as a substitute of Fischer ratio."

Background: Total lymphocyte count is related with prognosis and survival rate of head and neck cancer patients. Lymphocyte regulation is affected by multiple factors, including nutrition. One of the nutrients that plays role in lymphocyte proliferation is branched-chain amino acids. This study aims to investigate the correlation between branched-chain amino acid and total lymphocyte count in head and cancer patients.

Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted on adults with head and neck cancer who had not undergone therapy at the radiotherapy and medical hematology oncology clinic at RSCM. Branched-chain amino acid intake was assessed using 3x24-h food recall and semi quantitative FFQ. Total lymphocyte count was measured with differential blood cell counter.

Results: Eighty-five subjects with a mean age of 53 years, mostly are male, diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer, with histopathology appearance of squamous cell carcinoma, and stage IV cancer. The average subject had normal nutritional status, with an average intake of 29.99 ± 0.95 kcal/kgBW of energy and 1.39 ± 0.05 g/kgBW of protein with a semi quantitative FFQ assessment. The average branched-chain amino acid intake in subjects was 10,92 ± 0,48 gram with semi quantitative FFQ. There were 17.6% subjects with low total lymphocyte count. There was a low correlation between intake of branched-chain amino acids and total lymphocyte count (r=0,230, p=0,029).

Conclusion: There was a significant low correlation between branched-chain amino acids intake with total lymphocyte count in head and neck cancer subjects who had not undergone chemoradiotherapy."

"Pendahuluan: Sirosis hati merupakan penyebab mortalitas dan morbiditas global, terutama melalui komplikasi hipertensi porta yang menyebabkan perdarahan varises esofagus (VE). Pasien yang pernah mengalami perdarahan pertama memiliki tingkat kejadian perdarahan berulang yang tinggi dengan angka survival yang rendah. Meskipun endoskopi dapat memprediksi perdarahan berulang, pendekatan ini mahal dan bersifat invasif. Oleh karena itu, pemeriksaan non invasif lain dengan tingkat akurasi yang tinggi perlu dipelajari.Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi prediktor non-invasif perdarahan berulang VE (kekakuan hati, kekakuan limpa, skor Child Pugh, dan jumlah trombosit) pada pasien sirosis hati.Metode: Sebanyak 102 sampel pasien sirosis hati yang mengalami riwayat perdarahan VE. Variabel prediktor dalam memprediksi kejadian perdarahan berulang varises esofagus pada penelitian ini meliputi kekakuan hati, kekakuan limpa, skor Child Pugh, serta jumlah trombosit. Analisa multivariat dan uji skor dengan validasi internal untuk mendapatkan model performa terbaik sebagai prediktor perdarahan VE berulang.Hasil: Hasil menunjukkan bahwa kekakuan hati, kekakuan limpa, skor Child Pugh, dan trombositopenia signifikan sebagai prediktor perdarahan berulang VE. Dengan menggabungkan variabel ini, model prediksi dihasilkan dengan AUC 0,870. Diperoleh uji skor dengan validasi bahwa keempat variabel tersebut signifikan sebagai faktor yang berhubungan dengan perdarahan berulang varises esofagus. Kesimpulan: kombinasi kekakuan hati, kekakuan limpa, skor Child Pugh, dan jumlah trombosit memiliki performa baik dalam memprediksi risiko perdarahan varises esofagus berulang pada pasien sirosis hati.

Background: Liver cirrhosis is a global cause of mortality and morbidity, especially through complications of portal hypertension which causes esophageal variceal (VE) bleeding. Patients who have experienced a first bleed have a high rate of recurrent bleeding with a low survival rate. Although endoscopy can predict recurrent bleeding, this approach is expensive and invasive. Therefore, other non- invasive examinations with a high accuracy need to be researched.

Objective: This study aims to identify non-invasive predictors of recurrent VE bleeding (liver stiffness, spleen stiffness, Child Pugh score, and platelet count) in liver cirrhosis patients.

Methods: A total of 102 samples of liver cirrhosis patients who had a history of VE bleeding were included in this study. Predictor variables in predicting the incidence of recurrent esophageal variceal bleeding in this study include liver stiffness, spleen stiffness, Child Pugh score, and platelet count. Multivariate analysis and internal validity test were used to obtain the best performance model as a predictor of recurrent VE bleeding.

Results: The results showed that liver stiffness, spleen stiffness, Child Pugh score, and thrombocytopenia were significant as predictors of recurrent VE bleeding. By combining these variables, a prediction model was generated with an AUC of 0.870. Validity test of these four variables were significant as factors associated with recurrent esophageal variceal bleeding.

Conclusion: The combination of liver stiffness, spleen stiffness, Child Pugh score, and platelet count has good performance in predicting the risk of recurrent esophageal variceal bleeding in patients with liver cirrhosis."

"Latar Belakang: Tumor sistem saraf pusat (SSP) meningkatkan tekanan intrakranial dan menyebabkan berbagai gangguan neurologis yang dapat memengaruhi status gizi pasien. Status gizi memengaruhi imunitas bawaan dan adaptif. Pada hampir semua jenis keganasan kadar asam amino rantai cabang (AARC) didapatkan rendah. Asam amino rantai cabang meningkatkan imunitas dengan meningkatkan fagositik neutrofil, proliferasi limfosit, sintesis protein, menjaga jalur pensinyalan yang sensitif terhadap nutrisi. Rasio neutrofil limfosit (RNL) menggambarkan keseimbangan sistem imunitas dengan inflamasi. Peningkatan RNL dihubungkan dengan penurunan respon imun tubuh, terapi, harapan hidup dan prognosis. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui hubungan asupan AARC terhadap RNL pada pasien tumor SSP.Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan studi potong lintang pada pasien tumor SSP yang dirawat di RSCM. Karakteristik subjek berupa usia, jenis kelamin, jenis tumor, defisit neurologis, status performa karnofsky, indeks massa tubuh (IMT), status gizi berdasarkan ASPEN, penyakit komorbid, status infeksi, kemoterapi, radiasi, dan atau kemoradiasi, terapi glukokortikoid, asupan energi dan protein, asupan AARC, serta nilai RNL. Dilakukan analisis hubungan antara dua kelompok asupan AARC yang dibagi sesuai median populasi penelitian terhadap RNL.Hasil: Terdapat 66 subjek penelitian dengan median usia 48 tahun, mayoritas subjek perempuan (56,1%), dengan jenis tumor sekunder sebanyak 38 subjek (57,6%). Defisit neurologis tertinggi berupa nyeri kepala (60,6%), proporsi status performa karnofsky terganggu sedang-berat (60,6%). Proporsi IMT estimasi normal sebanyak 34,8%, rerata IMT 23,46 ± 4,95 kg/m2, dengan mayoritas malnutrisi (54,5%) berdasarkan kriteria ASPEN. Mayoritas subjek tidak memiliki komorbid (65,2%), tidak infeksi (80,3%), tidak menjalani kemoterapi, radiasi dan atau kemoradiasi (84,8%), serta tidak mendapat glukokortikoid (71,2%). Rerata asupan energi 1519 kkal, protein 65 g/hari, median AARC 9 g/hari. Terdapat perbedaan bermakna nilai RNL (p=0,047) pada kelompok asupan AARC <9 g/hari (median RNL 4,9); pada kelompok asupan AARC ≥9 g/hari (median RNL 3,1).

Background: Central nervous system (CNS) tumors increase intracranial pressure and cause various neurological disorders that can affect the nutritional status of patients. Nutritional status influences both innate and adaptive immunity. In almost all malignancies, low levels of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) are observed. Branched-chain amino acids enhance immunity by increasing neutrophil phagocytosis, lymphocyte proliferation, protein synthesis, and maintaining nutrient-sensitive signaling pathways. The neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR) reflects the balance of the immune system with inflammation. An elevated NLR is associated with decreased body immune response, therapy outcomes, life expectancy, and prognosis. This study aims to determine the relationship between BCAA intake and NLR in CNS tumor patients.

Method: This is a cross-sectional study on CNS tumor patients treated at RSCM. Subject characteristics include age, gender, tumor type, neurological deficits, Karnofsky performance status, body mass index (BMI), nutrition status based on ASPEN, comorbidities, infection status, chemotherapy, radiation, and/or chemoradiation, glucocorticoid therapy, energy, and protein intake, BCAA intake, and NLR values. The analysis examines the relationship between two groups of BCAA intake divided according to the study population's median with NLR.

Results: There were 66 study subjects with a median age of 48 years, mostly female subjects (56,1%), with 38 subjects (57,6%) having secondary tumors. The highest neurological deficit was headache (60,6%), and the majority have a moderately to severely impaired Karnofsky performance status (60,6%). The proportion of estimated normal Body Mass Index (BMI) was 34.8%, with a mean BMI of 23,46 ± 4,95 kg/m2, and the majority were malnourished (54,5%) based on ASPEN criteria. Most subjects had no comorbidities (65,2%), no infections (80,3%), did not undergo chemotherapy, radiation, and/or chemoradiation (84,8%), and did not receive glucocorticoids (71.2%). The mean energy intake was 1519 kcal, protein intake 65 g/day, and the median BCAA was 9 g/day. There was a significant difference in the NLR values (p=0,047) between the group with BCAA intake <9 g/day (median NLR 4,9) and the group with BCAA intake ≥9 g/day (median NLR 3,1).

Conclusion: BCAA intake is related to NLR values in CNS tumor patients. Higher BCAA intake is associated with lower NLR values."

ABSTRACT

Background: Minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) is the mildest spectrum of neuropsychological abnormality as a complication of liver cirrhosis which has implication in quality of life. Meanwhile, there are only few modalities to diagnose MHE. One of them is Critical Flicker Frequency(CFF), but this modality is not available in every health center. Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD)-a scoring system developed to determine the prognosis of patients who receive liver transplant-is correlated with EHM according to several studies. This study aimed to determine the correlation between MELD with CFF in cirrhotic patients.

Method:

This was a cross sectional study. Data were collected from March until May 2016 in Hepatological outclinic RSUPN Cipto Mangunkusumo. Inclusion criteria consist of cirrhosis pasien with Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) 15. Exclution criteria consist of patient with hepatic encephalopathy, hematemesis melena, stroke, visual impairment, and alcoholic cirrhosis. All subjects were examined using CFF and MELD scores.

Results:

A total of 60 patients met the inclusion and exclusion criteria for the study. There are 28 patients with EHM and 32 patients without EHM. r value of -0,097. The mean age were 54.8 years old. Most subjects were diagnosed with hepatitis B (34 patients) and most subjects were scored A based on Child Pugh scoring(39 patients). Mean value of CFF and MELD are 36,9 ±8,57 Hz and 10,3 ±3,6 consecutively. The correlation score between two modalities were r -0,097.

Conclusion:

There was no correlation between MELD score and CFF score."

"Since the limulus test, a method for the evaluation of endotoxin levels using extract from horsehoc crabs (limulus, spp), was developed in the year 1969 by Levin and Bang, there have been reports on endotoxin from portal blood without negative gram bacterial infection, a condition known as endogenous endotoxemia."
