Background: Chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA) is a progressive, destructive lung disease mainly caused by Aspergillus fumigatus infection. The disease can be a complication of tuberculosis (TB) infection and cause significant morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis of CPA is still challenging because the clinical symptoms are not typical, and there are no fast and accurate diagnostic tools. Detection of IgG-specific Aspergillus using the immunochromatography (ICT) method is a quick and simple test to assist CPA diagnosis. The study aimed to determine the correlation between the ICT Aspergillus test and the clinical and radiological characteristics of CPA in TB-related patients.

Method: This cross-sectional study was carried out in April 2019-July 2023 and was part of a previous study on CPA diagnosis in Indonesia. All sera of CPA patients were examined at the Clinical Parasitology Laboratory, Faculty of Medicine Universitas Indonesia for ICT Aspergillus detection, followed by analysis of the study results.

Result: Twenty-nine of the 54 patient sera showed positive results of ICT Aspergillus. There were more female (76%) than male patients, with the majority aged 30–60 years (74%). The most common clinical symptoms were fatigue (57%), cough ≥3 months (42%), hemoptysis (41%), shortness of breath (24%), and chest pain (20%). The most common comorbidities were diabetes mellitus (20%), cardiovascular diseases (11%), and COPD (9%). The dominant of radiological features were cavities (94%), followed by infiltrates (72%), and pleural thickening (55%). The statistical analysis showed a significant correlation between positive ICT Aspergillus results and radiological features, including infiltrates, paracavity fibrosis, fibrosis, pleural effusion, consolidation, and bronchiectasis. However, the ICT Aspergillus did not show statistical significance with clinical characteristics.

Conclusion: The ICT Aspergillus detection in this study showed positive results of 54%. There was a significant correlation between ICT Aspergillus positive result with radiology features, but no significant correlation with clinical characteristics."

Background: The diagnosis of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (API) is quite challenging because of non-specific clinical characteristics and imaging results. A biopsy cannot be performed because of the risk of complications. Galactomannan antigen (GM) detection is used as a noninvasive method because of its high sensitivity and specificity, but it is expensive and rarely available. Immunodiffusion test (IDT) can be an alternative method, because it is cheaper and easier, but it is necessary to know the accuracy of IDT in patients suspected of API.

Objective: Determine the diagnostic value of Aspergillus IDT compared to GM detection in diagnosing API.

Methods: Serum collection was carried out at the Parasitology Laboratory of FMUI from October 2019-October 2020 in patients suspected of API from various hospitals in Jakarta. The sera were examined using the Aspergillus IDT and GM detection. The IDT method uses crude Aspergillus antigen that was conducted at the Parasitology Laboratory of FMUI, while GM detection uses the PlateliaTM kit (Bio-Rad, France).

Results: A total of 92 patient serum samples were tested. The proportion of detection results for GM and IDT was 31.5% and 42.4%, respectively. The results showed that the sensitivity and specificity of IDT were 33.33% and 69.81%, respectively. Also, the positive and negative likelihood ratios are 1.10 and 0.95, respectively. Positive and negative predictive values and accuracy were 44.83%, 58.73%, and 54.35%, respectively. There was no difference in the proportion of IDT to GM detection (P> 0.05).

Conclusion: IDT diagnostic value is the same as compared to GM detection."

Introduction: Chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA) might become a complication of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) that has been treated. The clinical symptoms of CPA can resemble with PTB, making it difficult to distinguish. The diagnosis of CPA is determined by the consensus based on clinical symptoms, radiological features, and mycological results. Antibody detection with Aspergillus- specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) using the Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method can contribute to CPA diagnosis. This study aims to determine the clinical characteristics, Aspergillus-specific IgG detection, and the prevalence of CPA in prior TB patients at several hospitals in Jakarta.

Method: This prospective cross-sectional study was conducted in April 2019 - February 2020. Patients recruitment was carried out by consecutive sampling method. Subjects were prior TB patients at Persahabatan National Respiratory Referral Hospital and Graha Permata Ibu Hospital. Detection of Aspergillus- specific IgG and fungal cultures from sputum were carried out in the Laboratory of the Parasitology Department, FMUI.

Results: Of 97 patients recruited according to inclusion criteria, 66 patients (68%) were male and the mean age was 51.8 ± 13.6 years. The clinical symptoms of more than 3 months were fatigue (38.4%), shortness of breath (34.02%), cough (30.93%), hemoptysis (27.84%), weight loss (23, 71%), and chest pain (19,6%). Radiological features associated with CPA were ectasis (57.8%), cavity (27.8%), pleural thickening (26.8%), para-cavitary fibrosis (18.6%), and fungal ball (6.2%). The Aspergillus-specific IgG positive were reported in 51 patients (52.6%), whereas Aspergillus sputum cultures were found in 43 patients (44.3%). Based on the analysis of those examinations, the diagnosis of CPA was determined in 28 patients (28.9%).

Conclusion: The detection of Aspergillus-specific IgG in 97 prior TB patients showed the positive results in 51 patients (52.6%). The clinical symptoms more than three months were fatigue, shortness of breath, cough, hemoptysis, and weight loss. The radiological features related to CPA were ectasis, cavitary lesions, pleural thickening, paracavitary fibrosis, and fungal ball. The prevalence of CPA based on those examinations was 28.9%."

"Paparan terhadap polutan, terutama asap rokok merupakan penyebab peradangan saluran napas kronis pada PPOK. Pada penelitian sebelumnya, piroksikam terbukti menghambat aktivasi neutrofil dan mengurangi pelepasan anion superoksida dari neutrofil melalui ikatannya dengan formyl peptide receptor (FPR) secara in vitro. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk menganalisis efek antagonis FPR1 piroksikam secara in vivo terhadap parameter hematologi dan red blood’s cell distribution width (RDW). Penelitian ini menggunakan mencit betina ddY. Mencit diinduksi dengan asap rokok selama delapan minggu. Mencit yang sudah mengalami PPOK dibagi menjadi enam kelompok. Kelompok negatif diberi CMC-Na 0,5% secara oral, kelompok positif diberikan inhalasi budesonid 0,002mg/20gBB mencit/hari, serta tiga kelompok variasi dosis piroksikam dengan D1 0,026mg/20gBB mencit/hari; D2 0,052mg/20gBB mencit/hari; dan D3 0,104mg/20gBB mencit/hari secara oral. Mencit diinduksi selama delapan minggu, lalu diberikan perlakuan selama 21 hari. Parameter yang dinilai adalah hematologi serta red blood cell’s distribution width (RDW) yang diukur menggunakan hematology analyzer.

Exposure to pollutants, especially cigarette smoke, is a cause of chronic airway inflammation in COPD. In a previous study, piroxicam was found to inhibit neutrophil activation and reduce the release of superoxide anion from neutrophils by binding to formyl peptide receptor (FPR) in vitro. This study was conducted to analyze the effect of the FPR1 antagonist piroxicam in vivo on hematological parameters and red blood's cell distribution width (RDW). This study used female DDY mice. Mice were induced with cigarette smoke for eight weeks. COPD Mice were divided into six groups. The negative group was given CMC-Na 0,5% orally, the positive group was given inhaled budesonide 0,002mg/20gBW mice/day, and the three variation dose groups of piroxicam with D1 0.026mg/20gBW mice/day; D2 0,052mg/20gBW mice/day; and D3 0,104mg/20gBW mice/day orally. Mice were induced for eight weeks, then given treatment for 21 days. The parameters assessed were hematology and red blood cell's distribution width (RDW) which was measured using a hematology analyzer. Doses 0.026mg/20gBW and 0.104mg/20gBW of piroxicam affect hematological parameters. Doses 0.026mg/20gBW, 0.052mg/20gBW, and 0.104mg/20gBW of piroxicam are able to reduce RDW. The results showed that piroxicam affects hematological parameters and reduces red blood cell’s distribution width (RDW).
