Abstract

Purpose: Obesity is a growing public health problem in Indonesia, with prevalence influenced by several factors such as unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, and sociodemographic factors such as urbanization and socioeconomic status. It is associated with an increased risk of non-communicable diseases, including diabetes and asthma, and is more common in urban and affluent areas compared to rural areas. Although traditional markets may increase access to healthier food options, their direct impact on reducing obesity remains unclear. This study aims to conduct a multifactorial and bivariate analysis of obesity risk factors by involving analysis of the influence of gender, age, and traditional markets. Methodology: This cross-sectional study analyzed data on Gatak Sub-district Health Center visits (May-July 2024) and the presence of traditional markets from Statistics Indonesia reports, using Pearson Chi-Square and logistic regression to test the impact of age, gender, and market availability on BMI. Results: This study analyzed 9,639 patients, with fewer than half under 50 years old, two-thirds female, and nearly 80% living in areas without traditional markets. Multivariate and bivariate analyses revealed a higher proportion of obesity among patients aged 50 and older and females (p = 0.000). However, the presence of traditional markets showed no significant impact on obesity rates. The presence of traditional markets does not have a significant influence in causing obesity. Age 50 years and above and female gender have a higher risk of obesity. Applications/Originality/Value: This research contributes to understanding the factors that influence BMI in rural areas in Indonesia.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the influence of traditional markets in rural areas and the relationship between definitive factors that influence through bivariate and multivariate statistical analysis. Methodology: This study used a cross-sectional design to analyze the effect of age, BMI, and the presence of traditional markets on blood pressure using data from visits to the Gatak District Health Center, Sukoharjo Regency (May-July 2024) with bivariate (Chi-Square) and multivariate (logistic regression) methods. Results: This study analyzed 9,639 respondents which showed that age 50 years and above (aOR = 4.647, p = 0.000), overweight/obese BMI (aOR = 1.677, p = 0.000), and the absence of a traditional market around the residence (aOR = 0.779, p = 0.004) were significantly associated with an increased risk of hypertension. This study states that traditional markets can function as a protective factor, while age and obesity increase the risk of hypertension in rural communities. Applications/Originality/Value: This study highlights the role of traditional markets as a protective factor against hypertension in rural Indonesia, which has rarely been discussed in previous studies; This study highlights the role of traditional markets as a protective factor against hypertension in rural Indonesia, a perspective rarely discussed in previous studies. It provides insights into their contribution to public health strategies and preventive measures.

Abstract

Purpose: Obesity is a significant global health issue, including in Indonesia, where its prevalence continues to rise. This study investigates the influence of Base Transceiver Station (BTS) towers, age, and gender on obesity in rural Indonesian communities. A cross-sectional study analyzed secondary data from 9,639 patient visits to the Gatak Subdistrict Health Center between May and July 2024. Body Mass Index (BMI) was categorized into normo/underweight and overweight/obese groups, while BTS tower data were obtained from regional statistics. Statistical analyses were conducted using bivariate (Pearson's Chi-square) and multivariate (binary logistic regression) methods. Results showed that the presence of BTS towers and age did not significantly influence obesity. However, gender was a significant factor, with women exhibiting a higher prevalence of overweight/obesity compared to men (aOR = 0.796, p = 0.000). Most patients lived in areas with fewer than three BTS towers, and the majority were classified as normo/underweight. In conclusion, gender significantly influences obesity prevalence, with women being more affected than men, while the presence of BTS towers and age showed no significant relationship with obesity. These findings underscore the need for further research to explore additional factors contributing to obesity in rural Indonesian populations.
