Abstract

This study examines the relationship between soft drink consumption and obesity among adolescents. Obesity, a critical public health issue, has shown a rising prevalence globally, including in Indonesia, due to changes in dietary patterns and lifestyle. The research adopts a cross-sectional design conducted at Santo Thomas 1 Private High School in Medan, involving 198 students categorized into obese and non-obese groups based on Body Mass Index (BMI). The findings reveal that frequent soft drink consumption (more than three times a week) significantly increases the risk of obesity (p = 0.0001). Additionally, low physical activity and excessive caloric intake were identified as major contributing factors. Multivariate analysis highlighted low physical activity as the dominant risk factor for obesity, with an odds ratio of 36.351. The study underscores the need for targeted interventions to reduce soft drink consumption and promote healthier lifestyle choices among adolescents to mitigate the adverse effects of obesity on health outcomes.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the factors that influence tuberculosis infection in children with close contact with adult pulmonary tuberculosis sufferers. This research is an analytical observational study with a consecutive sampling method at the Glugur Darat Health Center in November 2024 until January 2025. Bivariate analysis using chi-square to determine whether there is a relationship between the independent and dependent variables. The type of test used is the Fisher Exact and Kruskal Wallis Test. There is no multivariate test because there are no significant variables in the bivariate test. In total, in 42 samples there were 10 children with positive Mantoux tests. Of the 23 female children there were 7 (30.4%) with positive results and of the 19 male children there were 3 (15.8%) positive results. Of the 39 children with a history of BCG immunization, there were 10 (25.6%) with tuberculosis infection. Of the 37 children with parents whose income was <UMR, 10 children (27%) had tuberculosis infection. 37 children whose parents had junior high school education, 9 people (24.3%) had tuberculosis infection. 10 children aged 1-5 years and 6-10 years, there were 2 (20%) each with tuberculosis infection. 26 children aged 11-18 years, there were 6 people (27.3%) with tuberculosis infection.
