"Latar Belakang: Dosen, tenaga kependidikan, dan staf lainnya di perguruan tinggi seringkali menghadapi beban kerja yang besar dalam melaksanakan pekerjaannya. Beban kerja yang besar dapat mengarah ke pengabaian perilaku sehat seperti istirahat yang cukup, olahraga, makan teratur, dan pengelolaan stress. Kebiasaan kurang sehat tersebut dapat menyebabkan gangguan keseimbangan otonom sebagai regulator fungsi organ internal yang kemudian mengarah ke kondisi patologis seperti gangguan metabolik, salah satunya pada regulasi glukosa darah.  Studi ini mengeksplorasi hubungan antara status fungsional sistem saraf otonom berdasarkan Index of Regulation System Activity (IRSA) sebagai salah satu alat ukur status fungsional sistem saraf otonom yang praktis digunakan dan faktor-faktor lainnya terhadap glukosa darah puasa pada pegawai perguruan tinggi sehingga dapat menyajikan pendekatan baru dalam mendeteksi risiko gangguan metabolisme glukosa. Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan desain observasional potong lintang pada karyawan Fakultas X, Universitas Y. Pengambilan data melibatkan pengukuran IRSA dan profil glukosa darah dari data sekunder pemeriksaan kesehatan tahun 2022. Analisis statistik menggunakan metode univariat, bivariat, dan multivariat untuk menilai hubungan antara variabel studi. Hasil: Hasil pemeriksaan IRSA didapatkan sebanyak 151 pegawai (67,4%) memiliki status fungsional kondisi prenosologis-premorbid, 48 pegawai (21,4%) pada status fungsional fisiologis normal, dan 25 pegawai (11,2%) pada status fungsional kegagalan adaptasi. Pada pemeriksaan glukosa darah puasa, didapatkan 36 pegawai (16,1%) memiliki glukosa darah puasa ≥ 100 mg/dL. Status fungsional kegagalan adaptasi (p=0,001; OR=26,43; 95% CI = 3,10-225,25) dan juga status fungsional prenosologis-premorbid (p=0,001 OR=9,78; 95% CI = 1,29-74,08) memiliki hubungan yang bermakna dengan glukosa darah puasa. Kesimpulan: Pekerja  dengan IRSA abnormal memiliki kecenderungan lebih besar memiliki glukosa darah puasa ≥ 100 mg/dL jika dibandingkan dengan pegawai dengan status fungsional IRSA fisiologis normal. Diperlukan tidak lanjut dari hasil pemeriksaan kesehatan secara berkesinambungan dan holistik baik untuk individu maupun kelompok yang disesuaikan dengan karakteristik dan resiko sasaran demi kesehatan serta produktivitas pekerja.

Background: Faculty members, educational staff, and other university personnel often face significant workloads in performing their duties. Work overload can lead to unhealthy behaviors and stress which can disturb the autonomic balance. These unhealthy habits can disturb the autonomic balance leading to pathological conditions such as metabolic disorders, including blood glucose metabolism. This study aims to find the relationship between the functional status of the autonomic nervous system based on the Index of Regulation System Activity (IRSA) to fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels in university employees. Method: This observational cross-sectional study used the secondary data of university employees medical checkups (MCU) in 2022 with total sample of 242 people. Variables included were IRSA from Heart Rate Variability (HRV) examination, FBG level, and other sociodemographic profiles. The MCU was conducted in the university hospital. Results: The examination results of IRSA indicated that 151 employees (67.4%) had a prenosologic-premorbid functional status and 25 employees (11.2%) had a failure of adaptation functional status. FBG examination revealed that 36 employees (16.1%) had FBG levels of ≥ 100 mg/dl. Failure of adaptation functional status had a significant relationship with FBG (p=0.003; OR=26.43; 95% CI = 3.10-225.25), as well as prenosological-premorbid functional status (p=0.03; OR=9.78; 95% CI = 1.29-74.08). Conclusion: Employees with abnormal IRSA were more likely to have FBG levels ≥ 100 mg/dL compared to those with normal physiological functional status. Ongoing and holistic monitoring of health examination outcomes is essential, catered to the specific characteristics and risk profiles of both individual and group targets, aiming to maintain and enhance worker health and productivity."

Background: Graves disease is most common causes in children with hyperthyroidism which affect growth and development. Optimal initial treatment method of hyperthyroid Graves in children is still under debate. Anti-thyroid drug (ATD) is still used as the initial treatment by the majority of health workers. Relapse can reach 83% with ATD treatment; and relapse is one of the causes to adjust therapeutic method. Alteration of initial ATD therapy to other treatment methods, in children who predicted relapse, will save time and costs as well as potentiate children’s growth and development.

Aim: To investigate the incidence of Graves hyperthyroidism relapse and its relationship to the initial FT4 levels, as well as age and gender characteristics of patients.

Method: This study is a retrospective cohort by investigate medical records of patients aged 1-18 years from January 2000 to June 2013 at Cipto Mangunkusumo hospital, Hermina Jatinegara Bekasi and Podomoro Hospital. Data were tabulated to obtain the incidence of relapse, the median of initial FT4 levels, the median of age, and sex of relapse patient. Statistical analysis was performed to find the effect of initial FT4 levels on the incidence of relapse.

Result: The study was conducted on 25 subjects with 12 children experienced a relapse. Initial FT4 levels of relapse patients was found statistically insignificant (p=0,64), but the relapse group tended to have higher levels of initial FT4. Relapse is predominant in girls (3:1), with median age of 10.9 years. This study found that duration of euthyroid differ significantly in the incidence of relapse (p=0,002).

Conclusion: The incidence of hyperthyroid Graves relapse in children is 12/25 with inital FT4 levels were not statistically significant although there was tendency initial FT4 levels were higher in relapse group. Girls experienced more relapses (3:1) with median age of 10.9 years."

"Beban kompleks ventrikel prematur (KVP) memiliki tiga jenis ritme sirkadian, yaitu tipe cepat, tipe lambat, dan tipe independen. Nukleus suprakiasmatikus merupakan bagian dari hipotalamus dan berperan sebagai pusat yang mengatur ritme sirkadian tubuh. Nukleus suprakiasmatikus berhubungan dengan sumbu hipotalamus-pituitari-adrenal (HPA), sistem saraf autonom, dan aspek psikologis. Hubungan ketiga sistem ini dengan ritme sirkadian beban KVP belum diketahui. Oleh karena itu, perlu dilakukan penelitian untuk menganalisis hubungan sumbu HPA, sistem saraf autonom, dan aspek psikologis dengan ritme sirkadian beban KVP. Studi observasional potong lintang ini merekrut subjek penelitian di RS Jantung dan Pembuluh Darah Harapan Kita, RSUD Pakuhaji, dan RS Bun. Waktu penelitian adalah dari Juli 2022 sampai Desember 2022. Kriteria inklusi adalah pasien KVP idiopatik dengan beban ≥ 5%. Sebanyak 23 subjek KVP tipe-cepat, 20 subjek KVP tipe-lambat, 22 pasien KVP tipe-independen, dan 5 subjek kontrol diikutsertakan pada penelitian. Setiap subjek menjalani pemeriksaan Holter 24 jam untuk evaluasi beban KVP dan heart rate variability, mengumpulkan saliva untuk pemeriksaan kortisol dan norepinefrin pada pukul 06:00–07:00, 10:00–11:00, dan 22:00–23:00, serta mencatat skala kesehatan subjektif. Selanjutnya, dilakukan analisis univariat dan regresi linier multipel untuk menganalisis hubungan antara ritme sirkadian variabel independen dan ritme sirkadian beban KVP. Hasil pemeriksaan Holter menunjukkan bahwa rerata beban KVP idiopatik tipe-cepat adalah 15,7%; tipe-lambat 8,4%; dan tipe-independen 13,6%. Regresi liner multipel menunjukkan bahwa tingginya beban KVP idiopatik-tipe-cepat berhubungan dengan kadar kortisol yang lebih tinggi dan tonus sistem saraf parasimpatis yang lebih rendah. Di samping itu, tingginya beban KVP idiopatik-tipe-lambat berkaitan dengan kadar kortisol dan tonus sistem saraf simpatis yang lebih rendah atau tonus sistem saraf parasimpatis yang lebih tinggi. Sementara itu, pada KVP idiopatik-tipe-independen tingginya beban KVP berhubungan dengan kadar kortisol dan tonus sistem saraf simpatis yang lebih tinggi atau tonus sistem saraf parasimpatis yang lebih rendah serta skala kesehatan subjektif yang lebih rendah. Disimpulkan bahwa pola sirkadian beban KVP idiopatik tipe cepat, lambat, dan independen masing-masing berhubungan secara khas dengan sumbu HPA, sistem saraf autonom dan mekanisme psikologis. Penilaian tipe ritme sirkadian KVP idiopatik perlu dilakukan secara rutin mengingat perbedaan mekanisme yang mendasarinya dan kemungkinan perbedaan pada prognosisnya.

Recent data show that premature ventricular complex (PVC) burden exhibits one of the three circadian patterns, namely fast-type, slow-type, and independent-type PVC. The suprachiasmatic nucleus is part of the hypothalamus and serves as the center of circadian rhythm regulation. The suprachiasmatic nucleus is related to the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, the autonomic nervous system, and psychological aspects. The relationship between these three systems and the circadian rhythm of PVC is unknown. Therefore, it is important to evaluate the relationship between the HPA axis, the autonomic nervous system, and psychological aspects with the circadian rhythm of PVC burden. This cross-sectional observational study recruited 23 fast-, 20 slow-, and 22 independent-type idiopathic PVC subjects, as well as 5 control subjects. Each subject underwent a 24-hour Holter to examine PVC burden and heart rate variability, collected saliva for cortisol and norepinephrine level measurement at 6–7 am, 10–11 am, and 10–11 pm, and recorded their self-rated health scales. Furthermore, univariate and multiple linear regression were conducted to investigate the associations between circadian rhythms of the independent variables and circadian rhythms of PVC burden. The results of the Holter monitor showed that the average PVC burden was 15.7%, 8.4%, and 13.6% respectively in fast-, slow-, and independent-type idiopathic PVCs. Multiple linear regression showed that the high burden of fast-type idiopathic PVC was assosciated with higher cortisol levels and lower parasympathetic nervous system tone. On the other hand, the high burden of slow-type idiopathic PVC was associated with lower cortisol levels and lower sympathetic nervous system tone. Meanwhile, in independent-type idiopathic PVC, the high burden was associated with higher cortisol levels and sympathetic nervous system tone as well as lower self-rated health scales. The results of this study indicate that each circadian pattern of idiopathic PVC burden is uniquely related to the HPA axis, the autonomic nervous system and psychological mechanisms. Assessment of idiopathic PVC circadian rhythm types needs to be carried out routinely considering the differences in the underlying mechanisms and the possible differences in the prognosis."

"Otitis media supuratif kronik (OMSK) merupakan salah satu gangguan telinga yang sering menimpa anak dan dapat menyebabkan gangguan pendengaran dan penurunan kualitas hidup, serta banyak komplikasi. Kondisi yang terkait dengan OMSK di antaranya alergi, hipertrofi adenoid, dan refluks laringofaring (RLF). Refluks laringofaring pada anak belum banyak dipelajari di Indonesia, dan diagnosis RLF berdasarkan Instrumen Tanda dan Gejala Refluks belum banyak dipelajari. Kejadian RLF juga dikaitkan dengan gangguan saraf autonom, akibat gangguan nervus vagus yang dapat menyebabkan refluksat lambung naik ke nasofaring dan mencapai muara tuba.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan RLF dengan OMSK tipe aman aktif yang dibahas desain 1 penelitian, yaitu studi kasus kontrol yang menganalisis alergi, hipertrofi adenoid, dan RLF sebagai faktor risiko OMSK tipe aman aktif. Desain kedua penelitian adalah studi kasus kontrol untuk mengetahui hubungan gangguan saraf autonom dengan kejadian RLF. Desain ketiga penelitian merupakan kohort retrospektif untuk mengetahui hubungan RLF dengan gangguan fungsi tuba. Penelitian dilaksanakan Mei 2023–Juni 2024, menyertakan 39 subjek OMSK tipe aman aktif dan 39 subjek kontrol dari pasien Poliklinik THT-KL RSCM, dan direkrut secara consecutive sampling. Subjek juga akan diperiksa kondisi RLF dan gangguan saraf autonom.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa anak dengan RLF terbukti berisiko 5,59x lebih tinggi untuk terkena OMSK tipe aman aktif (OR: 5,59; 95%CI: 1,247–25,049; p = 0,025). Alergi (OR: 1,433; 95%CI: 0,343–5,981; p = 0,622) dan hipertrofi adenoid (OR: 1,178; 95%CI: 0,584–2,378; p = 0,646) tidak terbukti bermakna secara statistik sebagai faktor risiko OMSK tipe aman aktif. Gangguan saraf autonom juga belum terbukti secara statistik sebagai faktor risiko RLF (OR: 1,086; 95%CI: 0,444– 2,650; p = 0,856). Refluks laringofaring juga tidak terbukti menjadi faktor risiko gangguan fungsi tuba (RR: 1,558; 95%CI: 0,594–4,087; p = 0,367). Dapat disimpulkan bahwa RLF merupakan faktor risiko utama OMSK tipe aman aktif pada anak. Pepsin dan derajat keasaman dari refluksat RLF pada telinga tengah dapat berperan dalam kerusakan telinga tengah.

Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is a prevalent ear disorder in children that can lead to hearing impairment, a decline in quality of life, and various complications. Conditions associated with CSOM include allergy, adenoid hypertrophy, and laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR). The incidence of LPR in children has not been extensively studied in Indonesia, and diagnosis of LPR based on Reflux Symptom and Sign Instrument is yet to be studied. LPR has also been linked to autonomic nervous system dysfunction, as disturbances in the vagus nerve can result in the reflux of gastric contents into the nasopharynx and the opening of the Eustachian tube.

This study aims to investigate the relationship between LPR and active benign type CSOM with the first design being a case-control study that analyzes allergy, adenoid hypertrophy, and LPR as risk factors for active benign type CSOM. The second design, also a case-control study, is to determine the association between autonomic nervous system dysfunction and the occurrence of LPR. The third study design employs a retrospective cohort study to assess the relationship between LPR and Eustachian tube function disorders. The research is conducted from May 2023 to June 2024, including 39 subjects with active benign type CSOM and 39 control subjects from the ENT-HN Polyclinic of RSCM, recruited through consecutive sampling. Subjects will also be evaluated for the presence of LPR and autonomic nervous system dysfunction.

The results indicated that children with LPR were at a 5.59-fold increased risk of developing active safe type CSOM (OR: 5.59; 95% CI: 1.247–25.049; p = 0.025). Allergy (OR: 1.433; 95% CI: 0.343–5.981; p = 0.622) and adenoid hypertrophy (OR: 1.178; 95% CI: 0.584–2.378; p = 0.646) were not found to be statistically significant risk factors for active safe type CSOM. Additionally, autonomic nervous system dysfunction did not show statistical significance as a risk factor for LPR (OR: 1.086; 95% CI: 0.444–2.650; p = 0.856). LPR also did not appear to be a risk factor for Eustachian tube dysfunction (RR: 1.558; 95% CI: 0.594–4.087; p = 0.367). It can be concluded that LPR is a primary risk factor for active safe type CSOM in children. The presence of pepsin and the acidity level of the LPR refluxate in the middle ear may contribute to middle ear damage."

"Komplikasi kronik diabetes, seperti penyakit kardiovaskular, ulkus diabetikum, penyakit ginjal, dan kerusakan mata dapat disebabkan oleh merokok. Akhir-akhir ini dikatakan bahwa merokok dapat meningkatkan resiko terjadinya diabetes mellitus tipe 2.

Chronic complications of diabetes such as cardiovascular disease, diabetic ulcers, kidney disease, and retinopathy can be caused by smoking. Recently, it has been said that smoking can increase the risk of diabetes type 2. Although the mechanism has been not clear, it has been suspected that insulin resistance caused by nicotine in tobacco smokers is related with increasing number of people who have type 2 diabetes mellitus. This research was designed to investigate the difference of blood glucose level in 20-60 years old male tobacco smokers and non-smokers in Salemba in 2009-2010.

The data from 32 male smokers and 32 male non-smokers taken by consecutive sampling was collected from questionnaire and measuring fasting blood glucose level by finger prick technique. The average value of fasting blood glucose in non-smokers group was 102,0 (86-150) mg/dL and in smokers group was 118,6 (SD 25,2) mg/dL. With Mann-Whitney test, it was known that p=0,002. So, there was a significant difference of blood glucose level in male tobacco smokers and non-smokers."

Background: It is estimated that 20-40% of cancer patients experience metastases to the central nervous system (CNS). Systemic inflammatory conditions in cancer mediated by cytokines are associated with a decrease in muscle mass. In inflammatory conditions, hepatocyte cells are stimulated to produce the acute-phase protein called c-reactive protein (CRP). Circulating CRP levels increase in over 50% of cancer patients. CRP is believed to be related to a decrease in muscle mass and serves as an early predictor in lean tissue loss. This study was conducted to determine the relationship between CRP levels and the skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) in patients with CNS metastases. Methods: This study is a cross-sectional study on cancer patients with CNS metastases at RSCM. Subject characteristics include age, gender, metastases type, primary tumor location, neurological deficits, Karnofsky performance status, comorbidities, infectious diseases, glucocorticoid therapy, undergoing chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery, body mass index (BMI), nutritional status based on BMI and ASPEN criteria, energy intake, protein intake, CRP levels, and skeletal muscle mass index (SMI). An analysis of the relationship between CRP levels and SMI was conducted.

Results: There were 57 patients with CNS metastases. Most subjects were female (56.1%). The median age was 47 years. Metastases was more commonly found in the brain (56.1%), and the most common type of metastasis based on the nervous system location was synchronous (86%). All subjects had oligometastasis, and most primary tumor locations were in the nasopharynx (17.5%), breast (15.8%), and lungs (14%). The most common neurological deficits were cancer pain (68.4%), headaches (56.1%), and limb weakness (43.9%). Most limb weakness was hemiparesis (22.8%). Most Karnofsky performance status was moderately impaired (45.6%), 63.2% had no comorbidities, 68.4% had no infectious diseases, 52.6% were not on glucocorticoid therapy, 75.4% were not undergoing chemotherapy, and 1.8% each were undergoing radiotherapy and surgery. The estimated mean BMI was 21.28 kg/m2, with the majority having a normal weight (43.9%). According to ASPEN criteria, the majority were moderately malnourished (49.1%) and severely malnourished (31.6%). The mean energy intake was 19 kcal/kgBW, and the median protein intake was 0.6 g/kgBW. The median CRP level was 46.6 mg/L, with 96.5% of subjects experiencing an increased CRP level. The mean SMI for all subjects was 6.17 kg/m2, with male subjects having a mean SMI of 7.2 kg/m2 and female subjects having a mean SMI of 5.4 kg/m2. There was a weak negative correlation (r=- 0.373) that was statistically significant (p=0.005) between CRP levels and SMI in patients with CNS metastases.

Conclusion: CRP levels are correlated with SMI in patients with CNS metastasis. Higher CRP levels are associated with lower SMI in patients with CNS metastases."

"Latar Belakang: Kanker primer tahap lanjut dapat bermetastasis ke sistem saraf pusat (SSP) yaitu otak dan spinal, maupun ke selain SSP. Perbedaan gejala klinis antara metastasis SSP dan tanpa keterlibatan SSP adalah defisit neurologis pada metastasis SSP. Kedua metastasis tersebut dapat berisiko menyebabkan indeks massa otot skeletal yang rendah akibat gejala klinis dan peningkatan metabolisme akibat kanker. Namun, belum diketahui perbedaan di antara keduanya. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui perbedaan appendicular skeletal muscle index (ASMI) pada pasien metastasis dengan dan tanpa keterlibatan SSP. Metode: Penelitian ini adalah studi potong lintang pada subjek berusia 18-65 tahun. Karakteristik subjek berupa usia, jenis kelamin, indeks massa tubuh, status gizi berdasarkan ASPEN, lokasi tumor primer, lokasi metastasis, waktu terdiagnosis metastasis, defisit neurologis, asupan energi dan protein, Karnofsky Performance Scale, kemoterapi, terapi glukokortikoid, dan nilai ASMI. Analisis bivariat digunakan untuk menilai perbedaan nilai ASMI antara metastasis SSP dan tanpa keterlibatan SSP. Hasil: Terdapat 59 subjek dengan nilai ASMI rendah. Rerata nilai ASMI pada metastasis SSP lebih rendah (3,81±1,19 kg/m2) dibandingkan dengan metastasis tanpa keterlibatan SSP (3,97±0,93 kg/m2) dengan perbedaan tidak signifikan pada kedua kelompok (p = 0,568). Terdapat perbedaan bermakna antara ASMI rendah dengan jenis kelamin (p=0,000), asupan energi (p=0,012), disfagia (p=0,027), nyeri kepala (p=0,033), dan gangguan kognitif (p=0,032). Kesimpulan: Tidak ditemukan perbedaan bermakna antara subjek yang memiliki ASMI rendah pada metastasis SSP dan tanpa keterlibatan SSP. Perbedaan bermakna ditemukan antara ASMI dengan karakteristik subjek yaitu jenis kelamin, asupan energi, disfagia, nyeri kepala, dan gangguan kognitif.

Background: Advanced primary cancer can metastasize to the central nervous system (CNS), namely the brain and spinal cord, or to other than the CNS. The difference in clinical symptoms between CNS metastases and those without CNS involvement is the neurological deficit in CNS metastases. Both metastases may be at risk for low skeletal muscle mass index due to clinical symptoms and increased metabolism due to cancer. However, the differences between them are unknown. The aim of this study was to determine the difference of appendicular skeletal muscle index in metastatic patients with and without CNS involvement. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional study on subjects aged 18-65 years. Subject characteristics included age, gender, body mass index, nutritional status based on ASPEN, primary tumor location, metastasis location, time of metastasis diagnosis, neurological deficits, energy and protein intake, Karnofsky Performance Scale, chemotherapy, glucocorticoid therapy, and ASMI value. Bivariate analysis was used to assess the difference in ASMI value between CNS metastasis and without CNS involvement Results: There were 59 subjects with low ASMI values. The mean ASMI value in CNS metastasis was lower (3,81±1,19 kg/m2) compared to metastasis without CNS involvement (3,97±0,93 kg/m2) without significant difference in both groups (p=0,568). There was a significant difference between low ASMI and gender (p=0,000), energy intake (p=0,012), dysphagia (p=0,027), headache (p=0,033), and cognitive impairment (p=0,032). Conclusion: No significant difference was found between subjects who had low ASMI in CNS metastasis and without CNS involvement. Significant differences were found between ASMI and subject characteristics such as gender, energy intake, dysphagia, headache, and cognitive impairment."
