Objectives: Find the discriminant and calibration of APACHE II (Acute Physiology And Chronic Health Evaluation) score to predict mortality for different type of intensive care unit (ICU) patients.
Methods: This is a cohort retrospective study using secondary data of ICU patients admitted to Siloam Hospital of Lippo Village from 2014 to 2018 with minimum age ≥17 years. The analysis uses the receiver operating characteristic curve, student t-test and logistic regression to find significant variables needed to predict mortality.
Cervical cancer is a leading cause of death among women worldwide, particularly in Indonesia. The main treatment of advanced-stage cervical cancer is radiation; however, the outcomes do not meet the required expectations. [1,7-Bis(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1,6-heptadiene-3,5dione] has been reported in several studies for its potency in cancer therapy.

Methods: a cohort study (February - October 2010) was conducted from 40 subjects with acute diabetic foot ulcer at clinical ward of Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo National Central General Hospital, Jakarta, Indonesia.
Background/objectives: The relationship between food intake and nutritional status has been clearly established. Yet, there are only limited studies on food intake among family members and their nutritional status. The study examined the relationship between intra-household food distribution and coexistence of dual forms of malnutrition (DFM) in the same household.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAim: to determine the role of serum lactate and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) severity as predictors for five-days mortality in DKA patients.
Methods: a prospective cohort study was conducted in DKA patients admitted to emergency department (ED) at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta, Indonesia, during 2007-2008 periods. Predictors for 5 days mortality in DKA patients in this study including serum lactate and DKA severity (plasma glucose, arterial blood pH, serum bicarbonate, osmolality, anion gap, and alteration in sensorium) at admission.
Background & Aims: We established a working group to examine the burden of atherothrombotic and musculoskeletal diseases in Asia and made recommendations for safer prescribing of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and low-dose aspirin.
Methods: By using a modified Delphi process, consensus was reached among 12 multidisciplinary experts from Asia. Statements were developed by the steering committee after a literature review, modified, and then approved through 3 rounds of anonymous voting by using a 6-point scale from A+ (strongly agree) to D+ (strongly disagree).
Aim: To find the prevalence and prediction factors of undiagnosed diabetes mellitus in an Indonesian adult population. By recognizing the prediction factors, we can make epidemiological modeling and scoring system of undiagnosed diabetes mellitus in Indonesia which can be used as a screening tool in primary health care and health care with minimal diagnostic facility.
Methods: Cross-sectional design was conducted on subjects from National Health Survey, Ministry of Health Republic of Indonesia 2007.
Aim: To assess clinical factors associated with partial hip replacement surgery failure and to develop a scoring system to predict it before treatment.
Methods: This was a historical cohort study of hip fracture cases underwent partial hip replacement in Siaga Raya Hospital, Jakarta between January 1997 and December 2006. Patients' clinical assessment included sex, age at surgery, ambulatory state, the number of underlying disease or comorbidities, hemoglobin and serum albumin levels, type of fracture and elapsed time between the day of fracture and day of surgery.
