Abstract

Introduction: Running downhill improved the expression of glucose transporter 1 (Glut 1) and fasting blood glucose in mouse. Eccentric contraction during running downhill found daily in activity such as down stairs and walking on tiptoe. Descend the stairs and walking on tiptoe are not easy to repeated, single, stable and universal, so that we purposed to replace it with additional insole in shoes for daily activity. The aim of this research was to investigate the effect of the additional shoe insole on fasting blood glucose and HbA1c.Methods: This research using experimental pre and post test design with 12 subject female staff at Medical Faculty of Airlangga University for two weeks and the test was performed in three times. The blood was taken before and after using shoe insole. The shoe insole inclination designed into 50 and 100. All subjects used the shoe insole for a week.Results: The result research showed the fasting blood glucose and HbA1c on subject that use shoe insole lower than control group. The fasting blood glucose and HbA1c on subject that use shoe insole 100 has value p<0,05. Discussion: Application of shoe insole lead to reduce the fasting blood glucose and HbA1c.

Abstract

Introduction: Menstrual cycle disturbance is the sign of a reproductive health problem, yet the cause tends to be multifactorial. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors of menstrual cycle disturbance which related to nutrition status among college students.Methods: This was an observational analytical study with a cross-sectional approach. There were 59 participants taken as samples according to inclusion criteria using proportionate stratified random sampling. Data were analyzed with chi-square and multiple logistic regression test.Results: Results found that 35.6% of participants experienced menstrual cycle disturbance. Bivariate analysis showed significant correlation between body fat percentage (p= 0.038, OR: 2.417) and waist circumference (p= 0.003, OR: 2.956) with menstrual cycle disturbance, otherwise no correlation found between Body Mass Index (BMI) (p= 0.052, OR: 2.145), subcutaneous fat thickness (p= 1, OR: 1.279), and total cholesterol levels (p= 1, OR: 1.063) with menstrual cycle disturbance. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that waist circumference became determinant factor among other variables predicting menstrual cycle disturbance in this study (p= 0.002, OR: 7.260).Conclusion: Waist circumference and body fat percentage were both risk factors of menstrual cycle disturbance, yet waist circumference was found being a determinant predictor to predict menstrual cycle disturbance among college student. Female students may pay particular attention to their waist circumference for detection of reproductive health problem earlier, especially regarding menstruation cycle disturbance.
