The cross-sectional design was used, involved 307 adolescents aged 13–18 years in Jabodetabek, Indonesia. Measures included an ISI questionnaire and information on gender, pre-sleep activities, sleep duration, and difficulty sleeping experience. Results showed that there is a significant difference (p 0,029) in insomnia tendency based on gender (female>male). Insomnia tendency is generally in the mild category with the prevalence of insomnia tendency 22,15% (moderate & severe). Respondents spent an average of 1 hour 22 minutes on the bed, using the internet via smartphone before asleep. Their sleep duration averaged 6,67 hours per night, 72% sleep less than 8 hours, and 51% feel don't get enough sleep.

Insomnia tendency is also generally found to increases with increasing frequency and duration of difficulty sleeping. These findings suggest that the insomnia tendency among adolescent smartphone users in Jabodetabek, Indonesia is high, especially compared with other countries. Therefore, it needs special attention from both academics and practitioners.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension plays a major role in the development of heart disease which is one of the most leading causes of death worldwide. Antihypertensives must be selected carefully to avoid affecting metabolic parameters. A risky case involving the increase of plasma glucose levels using Calcium Channel Blocker (CCB) antihypertensive, amlodipine, has been reported. Objectives: This study aims to examine the effects of CCB treatments on blood glucose levels in hypertensive patients at the Undata District General Hospital of Central Sulawesi Province. Material and Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design with a prospective approach. The instruments & materials used in this study are Accu-Chek Performa glucometer along with the patient's blood sample material. The research subjects were 31 patients who met the inclusion criteria; patients had been treated with CCB therapy for 3 months, patients were not diagnosed with diabetes mellitus, andpatients did not use drugs that might affect the blood glucose levels. Results: The results showed an average value of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels of hypertension patients using CCB class showed an increase from baseline of 124,619 mg/dL to 141,612 mg/dL with a difference of 16,993 mg/dL. Statistical analysis conducted also obtained a significance value of p 0,000 which indicates that the use of amlodipine can significantly increase fasting patients' plasma glucose levels. Conclusions: If observed clinically, the increasing in fasting plasma glucose values ​​falls into the category of mild to moderate hyperglycemic.
