Let's Get To Know Aplastic Anemia, The Rare Diseases That Babe Cabita Suffers

JAKARTA The Indonesian entertainment world is grieving again after the news of the death of Babe Cabita at Mayapada Hospital Lebak Bulus, South Jakarta. Komika with her real name Priya Prayoga Pratama is known to have a rare disease, an anemia.

Babe Cabita first uploaded a photo of herself being hospitalized on June 5, 2023. At that time, he told about his illness.

"It's been 14 days since I've been here (treated at the hospital). At first, DHF, and apparently I was suspected of having another disease because my platelet kept going down, my blood went down, white blood fell, everything went down," Babe Cabita said in a video uploaded to the Instagram account @babecabiita.

Finally taken by BMP (bone narrow punch), taking the spinal cord. It turns out that my disease is quite rare and unique, the name of the disease is aplastic anemia," he added.

For your information, BMP is a bone cord sampling procedure to check the signs of certain diseases. Through this procedure, doctors can diagnose disorders and blood cancer as well as other conditions that affect the bone cord.

Aplastic anemia is still heard by the public. Aplastic anemia is still very rare. Incidents vary around the world, ranging from two to six cases per million population per year.

Citing Care, aplastic anemia is a condition in which the body stops producing enough new red blood cells. There is a disturbance in the extortion cells in the bone cord that affects the production of blood cells.

Bone Sumsum is a soft tissue in the bone center that plays a role in producing blood cells and blood clots.

This blood disorder is classified as rare and serious, and can appear at any age. Aplastic anemia can make you more susceptible to uncontrolled infections and bleeding. This disease can appear suddenly, or can develop slowly and worsen over time.

Internal disease specialist dr. Ronald Alexander Hukom, SpPB-KHOM, said an aplastic anemia is a spinal cord disorder that is no longer able to make blood cells.

"Usually all blood cells from red blood cells, white blood cells, sufficient platelets," said Ronald.

Doctor Ronald also revealed several risk factors that can trigger someone with an aplastic anemia. For example, due to exposure to chemicals to drugs that damage the spinal cord.

"Or it could also be a risk factor of age. Yes, one day, the agency may experience a decrease in function, including the spinal cord," he continued.

Aplastic anemia is not the same as anemia that occurs in general, namely hemolithic anemia. Hemolithic anemia is a condition of lack of blood caused by lack of iron.

Patients with aplastic anemia and hemolithic anemia have almost the same symptoms, namely weakness and lethargic. However, people with aplastic anemia are more sensitive to immunity and infection. That way, the sufferer is easily exposed to wounds, bleeding, bleeding, bleeding gums, and bruises for no apparent reason.

Although it is not a genetic disease, aplastic anemia can be inherited. Genetic aplastic anemia usually attacks young people who are passed down from their families. Although very rare, genetic anemia that comes from genetics has the opportunity to develop into a leuchemical disease.

Ronald Alexander Hukom explained, the aplastic anemia does have symptoms similar to the cap, because both of them have similar symptoms. However, the spinal cord examination finally managed to identify the disease.

Because of that, Ronald said the spinal cord examination had to be done because the difference between the two would be found from this examination.

"It's different if you can find a large amount of fire cells in the spinal cord. So if you don't meet the plastic anemia, you don't find the cell. But when you check, the ability to make blood cells has decreased greatly," he said.
