Abstract

•Health workers have a high risk of developing latent TB disease due to occupational exposure from patients.•High sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) assays have been developed for special values that may indicate low-grade inflammatory lesions as is true in measurement of latent tuberculosis infection.•Serum HsCRP levels were found to be higher in latent TB subjects with increasing age and male gender but not statistically significant.

Abstract

Background and aim. One of the most prevalent chronic joint illnesses is osteoarthritis (OA), which can impair a patient's quality of life by causing joint pain, stiffness, deformity, and narrowed joint spaces. Many factors influence the pathogenesis of Osteoarthritis such as age and body weight, as well as genetic factors that are reported to play a role in the occurrence and progression of Osteoarthritis. Recently, many studies have demonstrated that inflammatory variables contribute to osteoarthritis pathomechanisms. It is currently thought that inflammatory variables alone are an independent risk factor for osteoarthritis. Methods. Observational sub-analysis with a cross-sectional approach to examine the relationship between Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 1 (ACE 1) levels and the grading of osteoarthritis at “Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo” Hospital from October 2020 to February 2021. ACE 1 levels were measured using the Elisa KIT and grading of osteoarthritis using the Kellgren and Lawrence criteria. Results. Analysis of the relationship between ACE 1 levels and osteoarthritis grading using the ANOVA test and Post Hoc Bonferonni Test showed a significant relationship between ACE 1 levels and osteoarthritis grading, where high ACE 1 levels were related to osteoarthritis grading. Deficiency and insufficiency (p<0.05). The results of this study are in line with previous research. Conclusion. The higher the ACE 1 level, the more severe the degree of knee osteoarthritis.

Abstract

Thyroid crisis is an emergency due to impaired thyroid function caused by various conditions, particularly infections such as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that result in the dysfunction of various vital organs. We report a case of a 31-year-old Indonesian female with a 2-year history of hyperthyroidism with elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) receptor antibodies. (TRAb) who developed thyroid crisis possibly in association with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia, sepsis, and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Prior to admission, she was treated for her hyperthyroidism with propylthiouracil and had been in stable remission for a year. She was admitted to the Emergency Room with complaints of watery stools, icteric sclerae, jaundice, coughing, and shortness of breath. The physical examination showed a World Health Organization (WHO) performance score of 4, delirium, blood pressure within normal limits, tachycardia, tachypnea, axillary temperature of 36.7°C, icteric sclerae, jaundice, and exophthalmos. There was a 3 cm palpable nodule on the right side of the neck. Auscultation of the lungs revealed bilateral pulmonary rales. Abdominal examination noted a palpable liver and enlarged spleen. Laboratory tests showed thrombocytopenia, electrolyte imbalance, hypoalbuminemia and elevated transaminases. The thyroid function tests showed a suppressed TSH level with an elevated free thyroxine (FT4) level. The SARS-CoV-2 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) swab test was positive. Initial patient management was with supportive therapy that included favipiravir and anti-hyperthyroidism medication; however, despite these interventions, her condition continued to deteriorate and she died after a few hours. This case demonstrates no difference in therapy between patients with thyroid crises and COVID-19 or other infections. Proper and timely treatment is important for reducing mortality rates., Competing Interests: The authors declared no conflict of interest., (© 2022 Journal of the ASEAN Federation of Endocrine Societies.)
