Abstract

Background: Overweight and obesity are rising among Indonesian adolescents and are known risk factors for hypertension. This study aimed to examine the relationship between overnutrition status and blood pressure among adolescents.Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted from May to September 2024, among overweight and obese adolescents aged 12–16 years in Central Jakarta, Indonesia.  Nutritional status was determined by body mass index (BMI) Z-scores based on CDC growth charts, adjusted for sex and age. Blood pressure was measured using a digital sphygmomanometer and classified according to the 2017 AAP guidelines. Data were analyzed using chi-square tests. Results: A total of 98 adolescents participated (67.3% male; mean age 13 years). Overweight (49%) and obesity (51%) were almost equally distributed, with the highest BMI recorded at 46.7 kg/m². More than half (58.2%) had elevated blood pressure, with one case reaching grade 2 hypertension (143/84 mmHg). Overnutrition status was significantly associated with elevated blood pressure (p=0.044). Stratified analysis showed a strong association among males (p=0.005), where 42.4% of obese males exhibited elevated blood pressure, but no significant association was observed among females (p=0.58).Conclusion: Overnutrition is significantly associated with elevated blood pressure among adolescents, particularly in males. Early interventions promoting balanced nutrition, physical activity, and healthy lifestyle habits are critical to reducing the long-term cardiovascular risk in this age group.

Abstract

Background: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection remains a global health issue, particularly in Africa and Asia. Cognitive impairment may early develop in individuals living with HIV and can therefore potentially impact nutritional status. This study aimed to assess the correlation between cognitive function and nutritional status in pre-elderly individuals with HIV.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from March 2023 to October 2024 among individuals living with HIV aged 45–59 years in Jakarta, Indonesia. Cognitive function was measured using the Indonesian version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA-Ina) and nutritional status was evaluated using body mass index (BMI). Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test with Jeffrey’s Amazing Statistics Program (JASP).Results: Of the 157 respondents, most were male (75.2%) with a mean age of 49±4.17 years. The majority were unmarried (44.6%), employed (70.1%), had incomes below the Jakarta minimum wage (74.5%), and had completed senior high school education (56.0%). Mild cognitive impairment was found in 70.7% of participants, whereas normal nutritional status was the most common (45.9%). However, no significant relationship was found between cognitive function and nutritional status (p=0.161).  Conclusion: Mild cognitive impairment is prevalent among pre-elderly individuals with HIV, most of whom have normal nutritional status. Although no significant relationship is observed between cognitive function and nutritional status, these findings highlight the importance of incorporating early cognitive screening into routine HIV care to support healthy aging and timely identification and management of cognitive decline.
