Abstract

Introduction: The prevalence of obesity in Indonesia reached 21.8% in 2018 and increased by 6.4% compared to 2013. Low physical activity is known as a risk factor of obesity. College students’ activities are closely related to use of screen time. Aims: To identify the activities of screen time for assignments and non-assignments on weekdays and weekends among college student and analyze its relationship with body mass index (BMI).  Methods: This study was conducted in 2018 with a cross sectional design among undergraduate students at the Faculty of Public Health, Universitas Airlangga, Indonesia, conducted in 2018. The screen time questionnaire was adapted from Sedentary Behavior Questionnaire. The correlation between screen time duration and BMI was analysed by Spearman test. Results: The female subjects were dominant (81.1%) and 28.4% of subjects as overweight-obese. The screen time duration in non-assignment activity on weekends has a positive correlation with the nutritional status of health college students (p 0.000, r 0.49), particularly duration of social networking sites and listening to music were more significant in obese than normal. The use of smartphones takes a high part, approximately 4 hours 20 minutes both on weekdays and on weekends. Conclusion: The screen time duration in non-assignment activity on weekend was associated to nutritional status of health college students. Health college students are encouraged to reduce screen time for non-assignment activities on weekends and to use wisely several smartphone applications or social networking sites to control body weight and achieve a balanced nutritional status.

Abstract

Introduction: Elderly exhibit an increased for health complications, including obesity and hypertension (HT).. Obesity has been demonstrated to increase the risk of HT and the mechanism is also often influenced by gender. Aims: The study aimed to analyze the association between obesity and hypertension among elderly in nursing home stratified by gender. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on a sample of 54 elderly subjects in nursing home. A sphygmomanometer was used to assess blood pressure (BIA) and a Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) to determine nutritional status includingbody mass index (BMI), body fat (BF), visceral fat (VF), and subcutaneous fat (SF). Analysis of data was performed using an independent t-test and Pearson correlation test. Results: Mean age of respondents was 71.28 ± 8.21, dominated by women (75.9%), and 27.8% had hypertension. Dietary intake indicate excess sodium intake, while potassium, calcium, magnesium, vitamin D, vegetables, and fruits intake remain low. All indicators of nutritional status assessment differ significantly by gender except BMI. However, the present study found that BMI is the only variable associated with systolic BP (p=0.023). Stratified by gender, it was found that BW, BMI, and VF in women were related to systolic BP (p=0.022; p=0.015; p=0.040; respectively), and no such relationship was observed in men. Conclusion: It is proven that obesity and hypertension were more prevalent among elderly women. It is imperative to check nutritional statusfor preventive action for other diseases, including hypertension.
