Comorbid diseases in COPD contributing to low health status, affecting the duration of treatment and even death. Osteoporosis is a quite often comorbid that found in COPD. In Indonesia, there are no data of prevalence on osteoporosis in patient with stable COPD. The aim this research to get the data of osteoporosis in patients with stable COPD at Persahabatan Hospital. \u0000Method: The studie’s design was cross-sectional. Patients with stable COPD who came to the Asthma/COPD policlinic at Persahabatan Hospital who meet the criteria of inclusion and exclusion. Subjects had an examined of bone mineral density using dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and had an examined of vitamin D blood level. At the time of visit, conducted anamnesis of symptoms, exacerbations, history of smoking, used of corticosteroid (oral or inhaled), comorbid, assessment of nutritional status. \u0000Results: Subjects were dominated with male (90.6%) in the age group 65-75 years old (53.1%), and smoking history (84.4%). The most degree of COPD were GOLD II (46.9%) and group B (50%) that using corticosteroid (65.7%). Prevalence of osteoporosis was 37.5%. There were no statistically significant between COPD group, the degree of COPD, sex, smoking history, history of corticosteroid, age, levels of 25-OHD, pulmonary function with the occurrence of osteoporosis in patients with stable COPD. There were a statistically significant on low BMI as a risk factor for osteoporosis in stable COPD. \u0000Conclusion: The prevalence of osteoporosis in patients with stable COPD in the Persahabatan Hospital is 37.5%. There are a statistically significant relationship between BMI with osteoporosis in patients with stable COPD.","PeriodicalId":377868,"journal":{"name":"Respiratory Science","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116727437","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Examination of EGFR mutations in ctDNA blood plasma sampling is simpler and easier, which also can be used as predictive and prognostic markers in non-small cell carcinoma lung cancer patients. The purpose of this study is to determine and analyse the degree of compatibility between examination of EGFR mutations by blood plasma (ctDNA) samples with the examination of cytology / histopathological EGFR mutations in adenocarcinoma lung cancer. \u0000Methods: Diagnostic test research, by taking medical records of patients with adenocarcinoma lung cancer from January to September 2019 at Dr. Moewardi Surakarta, who was examined by EGFR mutations in cytology / histopathology and ctDNA samples. \u0000Result: The Subjects of this study were 73 patients with adenocarcinoma lung cancer.

Petrol station attendant is considered to have high risk exposure to dangerous pollutant from motor vehicle emission and petrol fumes, especially while filling up petrol tanks.

A total of 97 petrol station attendants were taken in this research using consecutive sampling technique. The subjects were interviewed with questionnaires, spirometry and chest radiograph. Measurements of sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), carbon monoxide (CO), ozone (O3), particulate matter 2,5 (PM 2,5) and steam gasoline (benzene) concentrations were performed at the study sites. \u0000Results: In this study, 56.7% normal spirometry results, 42.3% abnormalities in the form of restriction, 1% obstruction and none of which experienced mixed disorders of restriction and obstruction. Most subjects (84.6%) did not experience respiratory complaints, 10.3% had a dry cough and 5.1% complained of cough with phlegm.
