OBJECTIVES: This study aims to determine the diagnostic accuracy and evaluate the
performance of Qure.ai and Putra Analytica software in assisting TB diagnosis.
METHOD: We will conduct a retrospective case-control study that will take place at
Respiratory Medicine Institute (IPR) and selected Health Clinics in Kuala Lumpur. The
population is selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria of this study. A total of
2000 eligible CXR images will be retrieved and patients’ basic demographic and medical
history will be recorded by tracing through medical records. All CXR images will be screened
onto both software and the interpretation from the software will be compared with the
reference standard (clinically and/or bacteriologically evidence). Significant statistical
analyses (sensitivity, specificity and AUC calculation) will be computed for accuracy
measurement and performance for both software.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: No primary data will be collected in this review; hence no
formal ethical approval is required. An article reporting the results will be submitted for peer-
reviewed publication.

INTRODUCTION: Non communicable disease (NCD) has recently emerged as a major public-
health concern, with prevalence rising over the world. As a submerged portion of the iceberg,
the hidden burden of NCD is escalating and devouring the world. NCD affects HCWs in the
same way it affects other types of workers. Healthcare worker (HCW) should serve as role
models in the community, raising NCD prevention knowledge and encouraging patients to
adopt a healthier lifestyle. This population is thought and assumed to be healthy in almost all
circumstances in the communities. Despite working in a disease prevention and health
promotion setting, HCWs have exhibited a trend toward NCD over time and have greater
levels of NCD than the overall population in various studies. Several occupational risk factors,
in addition to the common risk factors, were identified in their life and work settings, making
them vulnerable to the acquisition of NCD
METHODS: A cross sectional study was conducted in JKN Johor with secondary data source
from health screening of HCW from 2021. A total of 123 subjects participated in the study
RESULTS: Based on BMI calculation 22% were categorized normal, 34% were overweight and
67% were obese. Bivariate correlation test was conducted to determine 2 continuous
variables. The results show a significant relationship between Total Cholesterol and Fasting
blood sugar level among HCW (P value <0.05, correlation coefficient 1.00)
DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION: The high prevalence of NCD risk factors and their significant
association necessitate an appropriate risk-reduction strategy to reduce the possibility of
chronic illness among them.
