Control Study

In September 2000 an outbreak of influenza-like illness was reported on a cruise ship sailing between Sydney and Noumea with over 1100 passengers and 400 crew on board. Laboratory testing of passengers and crew indicated that both influenza A and B had been circulating on the ship. The cruise coincided with the peak influenza period in Sydney. Morbidity was high with 40 passengers hospitalized, two of whom died. A questionnaire was sent to passengers 3 weeks after the cruise and 836 of 1119 (75%) responded. A total of 310 passengers (37%) reported suffering from an influenza-like illness (defined as cough, fever, myalgia and weakness) and 528 (63%) had seen a doctor for illness related to the cruise. One-third of passengers reported receipt of influenza vaccination in 2000; however neither their rates of influenza-like illness nor hospitalization were significantly different from those in unvaccinated passengers. A case–control study also found no significant protective effect of influenza vaccination. With the increasing popularity of cruise vacations, such outbreaks are likely to affect increasing numbers of people. Whilst influenza vaccination of passengers and crew may afford some protection, uptake and effectiveness may not be sufficient to prevent outbreaks. Surveillance systems and early intervention measures, such as antiviral therapies, should be considered to detect and control such outbreaks.

Pendahuluan. Influenza merupakan penyakit infeksi yang disebabkan oleh virus influenza. Pada manusia, influenza sering menimbulkan penyakit pernapasan akut dengan manifestasi klinis berupa influenza like illness. Penegakkan diagnosis influenza seringkali sulit oleh karena manifestasi klinis yang tidak khas. Demam disebut sebagai gejala klinis terpenting dan limfopenia didapatkan sebagai suatu temuan laboratoris yang konsisten. Usaha untuk mengetahui proporsi dan mengelaborasi gejala klinis dan pemeriksaan darah tepi sederhana diperkirakan dapat meningkatkan probabilitas diagnosis influenza.Tujuan. Mengetahui proporsi influenza serta mengevaluasi peranan gejala klinis dan pemeriksaan laboratorium sederhana pada pasien penyakit pernapasan akut dengan influenza like illness sehingga dapat digunakan sebagai faktor prediktif terhadap diagnosis influenza.Metode. Studi potong lintang berbasis diagnostic research pada pasien penyakit pernapasan akut dewasa dengan gejala influenza like illness di Puskesmas Kecamatan Pulo Gadung dan Puskesmas Kelurahan Rawamangun antara Maret hingga Juni 2011. Spesimen analisis virus menggunakan bahan apus nasofaringeal, dengan teknik analisis PCR kualitatif dan imunokromatografi antigen.Hasil. Dari 90 orang subyek penelitian didapatkan 13 orang (14,4%) terbukti terinfeksi virus influenza A melalui teknik PCR. Variabel demam menunjukkan hasil uji kemaknaan yang signifikan terhadap influenza (p 0,003) dengan prevalence ratio 6,28 (95% CI 1,476-26,759). Sensitifitas demam, batuk dan pilek terhadap influenza masing-masing adalah 85% dan negative predictive value demam sebesar 98%. Variabel determinan lainnya tidak menunjukkan hasil yang bermakna terhadap influenza pada uji kemaknaan statistik.    Simpulan. Proporsi influenza pada pasien dengan gejala ILI diperoleh cukup tinggi dengan proporsi demam yang terbukti lebih tinggi pada pasien influenza. Sensitivitas demam, batuk dan pilek terhadap influenza tinggi dengan negative predictive value yang memuaskan untuk seluruh variabel determinan.

Dilutional Hyponatraemia

The syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) secretion is a frequent cause of hyponatraemia. It is a dilutional hyponatraemia secondary to impaired urinary dilution in the absence of renal disease or any identifiable non-osmotic stimulus known to induce antidiuretic hormone secretion. SIADH can arise secondary to various respiratory tract infections; however, the association between SIADH and influenza A infection is described in only a few cases in the literature. The authors present a case report of influenza A that may have caused a profound SIADH-related hyponatraemia.

Aims We explored the association between influenza epidemic and suicide mortality rates in a large population using a time-series regression of 13-year mortality data in South Korea. Methods Weekly suicide mortalities and influenza-like illness (ILI) were analyzed using time series regression. Regression coefficient for suicide mortality based on percentage change of ILI was calculated using a quasi-Poisson regression. Non-linear distributed lag models with quadratic function up to 24 weeks were constructed. Results The association between ILI and suicide mortality increased significantly up to 8 weeks post-influenza diagnosis. A significant positive association between ILI and suicide mortality was observed from 2009, when a novel influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus provoked a worldwide pandemic. No meaningful association between these factors was observed before 2009. Conclusion There was a significant positive relationship between ILI and suicide mortality after 2009, when a novel influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus provoked a worldwide pandemic.
