Abstrak Latar Belakang: Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) adalah penyakit pneumonia yang disebabkan oleh infeksi SARS-CoV-2 yang dapat mengarah kepada badai sitokin yang menginduksi disregulasi koagulasi (ditandai dengan peningkatan kadar D-dimer) sehingga meningkatkan risiko terjadinya trombosis. Pemeriksaan foto toraks memiliki peranan dalam upaya pemeriksaan lini pertama karena penggunaannya yang mudah dan dapat diterapkan untuk memantau kelainan paru pada pasien COVID-19. Objektif: Penelitian ini bertujuan melihat hubungan severitas gambaran radiologis foto toraks pasien COVID-19 dengan peningkatan kadar D-dimer. Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian analitik dengan pendekatan cross sectional pada data sekunder pasien COVID-19 yang dilakukan pemeriksaan foto toraks dengan menggunakan skor Brixia dan kadar D-dimer di Rumah Sakit Dr. M. Djamil Padang terhadap 30 sampel. Analisis data menggunakan uji korelasi Pearson. Korelasi dinyatakan bermakna jika p<0,05. Hasil: Penelitian ini memperoleh nilai rerata untuk severitas gambaran radiologis foto toraks pasien COVID-19 sebesar 9,8±4,286 dan kadar D-dimer sebesar 1955±1065,041 µg/L. Hasil analisis bivariat menunjukkan hubungan severitas gambaran radiologis foto toraks dengan kadar D-dimer pada pasien COVID-19 (p=0,028) dan nilai korelasi (r) ialah 0,401. Kesimpulan: Kesimpulan yang didapat adalah terdapat hubungan dengan korelasi moderat antara severitas gambaran radiologis foto toraks dengan kadar D-dimer pada pasien COVID-19. Kata kunci: COVID-19, D-dimer, Foto Toraks Abstract Background: Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a pneumonia caused by infection with SARS-CoV-2 that can lead to a cytokine storm that induces coagulation dysregulation (characterized by elevated D-dimer levels) thereby increasing the risk of thrombosis. X-ray examination has a role in first-line examination efforts because it is easy to use and can be applied to monitor lung abnormalities in COVID-19 patients. Objective: This study aims to see the relationship between the severity of the chest radiography of COVID-19 patients with increased levels of D-dimer. Methods: This study was an analytic study with a cross sectional approach to secondary data for patients with COVID-19 who were examined for chest X-ray with Brixia scores and D-dimer levels. The sample of this study were patients diagnosed with COVID-19 at Dr. M. Djamil Hospital, Padang as many as 30 samples. Data analysis used univariate and bivariate analysis with the Pearson correlation test. Correlation was significant if p<0,05. Results: The study obtained that the mean value for the chest X-ray scores of COVID-19 patients was 9,8±4,286 and the D-dimer level was 1955±1065,041 µg/L. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between chest X-ray scores and D-dimer levels, the p value was 0,028 and the correlation value (r) was 0,401. Conclusion: It is concluded that there is relationship with a moderate correlation between chest X-ray scores and D-dimer levels in patients with COVID-19.

“…Atypical fndings of COVID-19 infections described in literature include pleural and pericardial efusions, calcifcations, pneumothorax, cavitation, lung collapse, mediastinal enlargement, and cardiomegaly [8][9][10][11]. Based on previous studies, chest CT features were shown to vary based on age of the patients, duration of symptom at presentation, COVID-19 vaccination status, and the strain of the virus [12][13][14][15]. A study done in Ghana had demonstrated that more patients in the second wave had evidence of COVID-19 disease on chest imaging than those patients in the frst wave [8].…”

Background. Studies done globally had shown that chest imaging patterns of Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection varied depending on the strains of the virus and the waves of the pandemic. There is no published literature done in Ethiopia to examine whether there is any difference in chest computed tomography (CT) findings of COVID-19 patients during the first and fourth waves. Thus, this study tries to fill the gap of knowledge in that regard. Objective. To describe and compare chest CT scan imaging pattern and assess the predictors of chest CT severity of the first and fourth wave of COVID-19 infection. Methods. An institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted on 200 polymerase chain reaction test confirmed COVID-19 patients who underwent chest CT scan imaging in two diagnostic centers in Addis Ababa city. Pioneer and Wudassie diagnostic centers were selected due to the high case load and availability of well-experienced cardiothoracic radiologists. Data were collected from July 1 to August 3, 2022, using a structured Google form sheet questionnaire. Binary logistic regression was performed, and statistical significance was assessed at a level of significance α = 0.05. Results. Comparatively higher proportion of patients from the first wave had positive chest CT finding than fourth wave (99% vs. 69%). Bilateral lung involvement and lower lobe predilection were seen for both waves of COVID-19. Ground glass opacity and consolidation were the most common CT features for both waves. Delayed chest CT features such as traction bronchiectasis were primarily seen among first-wave patients. Mean global CT severity score was higher for the first-wave patients (13.18 vs. 8.31), and the mean difference is statistically significant ( p < 0.001). Duration of symptoms was a statistically significant predictor of CT severity during the first wave of COVID-19, and patients that presented later than 14 days had 4.12 times higher odds of being in the severe CT score category than those that presented less than 7 days (AOR = 4.12, p = 0.011). There was no statistically significant predictor of CT severity for the fourth wave in this study. Conclusion. Chest CT positivity was comparatively higher for first wave patients. Common features included bilateral involvement, lower lobe involvement, ground glass opacity, and consolidation. Mean chest CT severity was comparatively higher for the first wave than the fourth wave, and the duration of symptoms was a statistically significant predictor of the CT severity for first wave.

“…Cortical blindness (CB) is a loss of vision in both eyes due to an occipital striate cortex injury [ 1 ]. In addition to congenital abnormalities, ischemic stroke, hypoxemia, trauma, and poisoning have all been documented as causes of CB [ 2 ]. CB is a rare complication after the vertebral artery interventional operation [ 3 ].…”
