Seven types of vaccines have been used in Indonesia. Adverse events following immunization (AEFI) may occur after the COVID-19 vaccination. Objective: This study aimed to determine factors associated with AEFI of the COVID-19 vaccination.Methods: This cross-sectional study included 160 respondents who had been vaccinated against COVID-19. Data were collected by using google form distributed through social media from October 12-20, 2021. Multivariate analysis was performed by using a logistic regression test.Result: The incidence of AEFI of the COVID-19 vaccination was 69.4%, and the AEFI symptoms were lower in the second dose of COVID-19 vaccine than the first dose. Poor dietary habits were associated with higher risks of the AEFI (OR=2.34 CI 95% 1.14-4.80). The second vaccine dose was related to decreased risks of the AEFI (OR=0.35 CI 95% 0.13-0.92).Conclusion: The incidence of AEFI of the COVID-19 vaccination was quite high, and the common AEFI was systemic symptoms. Dietary habits and vaccine doses were associated with the AEFI of the COVID-19 vaccination. These findings suggest that poor dietary habits may increase the risks of the AEFI, and decreased risks of the AEFI may be experienced in the second dose of COVID-19 vaccine. Further studies are warranted to explore the effects of both doses of COVID-19 vaccines on the AEFI.","PeriodicalId":508182,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Kedokteran dan Kesehatan Indonesia","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139347253","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}

HbA1c has some limitations when used for HD because its results can falsely low or falsely high. It can be missunderstood if clinicians use HbA1c as glycemic control. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate correlation between HbA1c and GA in HD patients with Diabetes Mellitus (DM). Methods: This study was a cross sectional study conducted on November 2016 until January 2017. Its samples were obtained from 43 patients in HD with DM, fullfilling inclusion and exclusion criteria, located in a private hospital at east Jakarta. The HbA1c was measured by using a turbidimetric inhibition immunoassay method, and the GA was measured by using an enzimatic colorimetric method. In addition, a test of Pearson correlation was used to determine the correlation between HbA1c and GA with a significance of p<0.05. Results: Averages of patients age in this study was 57.16 ± 9.0 years old, including 24 men (55.8%) and 19 women (44.2%). The mean values of HbA1C were 8 ± 2.30%, and the mean values of GA were 30.02 ± 13.3%. The mean duration of the HD was 4.5 ± 1.3 years. The glycemic control based on GA was significantly better than the HbA1c with p = 0.028 (Chi-Square test). Pearson correlation showed that there were a significant correlation between HbA1c and GA with r = 0.759 and p = 0.000. Conclusion: There were a significant correlation between HbA1c with GA in HD patients with DM. Glycemic control based on GA was better than HbA1c.","PeriodicalId":508182,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Kedokteran dan Kesehatan Indonesia","volume":"54 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141209175","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}
