Abstract

Introduction. Protein is a physically and functionally complex macromolecule that has a role in the body. Medical students have been expected to have more knowledge about healthy lifestyles: healthy diet and physical activity. Previous studies have stated many factors affect protein intake. This research was conducted to find out about protein intake and its relationship to gender and physical activity of medical students in the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Sriwijaya. Methods. This was an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design. Data were collected using questionnaires, food records and food recall conducted from 8 September 2017 until 27 September 2017, against 279 respondents in the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Sriwijaya. The data obtained were analyzed with the statistical test of Chi-square with SPSS Version 24. Results. Most of the respondents were female. In this study, the majority of respondents have low physical activity (49.8%). The mean protein intake of the respondents was low (81%). There was no significant relationship between gender and protein intake (p-value=0,135). There was no significant relationship between physical activity and protein intake (p-value=0.299). Conclusion. This study concluded that protein intake was not related to gender and physical activity of medical students

Abstract

Angiotensin Receptor Blocker, ARB, is a drug that acts on the AT1 receptor so as to inhibit Ang II stimulation. Ang II stimulates the main activity of the angiotensin renin system. Recent research has shown the presence of components of the RAS system in the brain, and the neuroprotective effects of the brain. ARB drugs can enter the brain and protect the blood brain flow, maintain the function of the blood brain barrier and reduce cerebral hemorrhage. The neuroprotective effect of ARB not only arises from improved cerebrovascular blood flow (improved access to oxygen and nutrients) but also decreased factors that can cause brain injury, including decreased excitotoxicity of glutamate which causes inflammatory response and apoptosis, decreased inflammatory response of interleukin-1β and bacterial endotoxin. In addition, there are additional effects through the PPARγ activation mechanism. Based on these benefits ARBs can be developed for the purpose of treating various brain disorders, in this case improving cognitive function, such as vascular dementia, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, traumatic brain injury, stroke, and others.

Abstract

Introduction. Metabolic syndrome is the constellation of metabolic abnormalities that are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes melitus. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in younger people is increasing along with the increased prevalence of obesity. Waist circumference and blood pressure measurement are simple examinations for early detection of metabolic syndrome. Excessive consumption of carbohydrates is one of the factors that cause health problems. But the data of these measurements and food records of medical students in Universitas Sriwijaya were not documented yet. Methods. This study was an observational analytic cross-sectional study with proportionate stratified random sampling. This study used primary data from forms, questionnaires, food records, and physical examinations collected from 275 medical students. The data were analyzed with an independent t-Test for normally distributed data or with Mann Whitney for not normally distributed data. Results. There was a significant relationship between carbohydrate intake and waist circumference (p-value = 0,048) but no relationship between carbohydrate intake and blood pressure (p-value for systolic blood pressure = 0,720 and diastolic blood pressure = 0,847). Conclusion. These findings show an association between carbohydrate intake and waist circumference, but no association between carbohydrate intake and blood pressure (systolic and diastolic blood pressure).

Abstract

Introduction. Physiologically, there are setbacks and weaknesses in body functions in the elderly. This can cause inadequate food intake or eating imbalances in the elderly. Increased blood pressure is influenced by many factors such as sodium and potassium intake and less potassium intake can increase blood pressure. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of sodium and potassium intake from food with blood pressure in the elderly in the community dr. Mohammad Hoesin Hospital. Methods. An observational-analytic study was conducted on 120 elderly people using a cross-sectional research design conducted in the elderly community of dr. Mohammad Hoesin Hospital in October-November 2019. The sample of this study were members of the elderly community aged over 60 years, present when the study was conducted, willing to become a respondent and signed an informed consent. Data was obtained through filling out food record questionnaires, food recall interviews, personal data interviews, and direct measurement of blood pressure and nutritional status. To meet the research objectives, data were analyzed by Chi-square test. Results. In this study, there were 120 elderly people consisting of 3 men and 117 women. There was a significant relationship between sodium and potassium intake and blood pressure (p=0,003 and p=0,0001). Conclusion. There is a significant relationship between sodium and potassium intake with blood pressure in the elderly.

Abstract

Introduction. The need for Vitamin D can be fulfilled through direct synthesis from Vitamin D stores in the skin with the help of ultraviolet B rays. Therefore, sufficient Vitamin D intake and sun exposure are needed. Most of the activities of medical students on campus are indoors from morning to evening, so it is suspected that there is a risk of Vitamin D deficiency. The purpose of this study was to identify the risk of Vitamin D deficiency based on the characteristics of Vitamin D from food intake and sun exposure in Faculty of Medicine students, Universitas Sriwijaya. Methods. This research was a descriptive study using a questionnaire and observation. Age, sex, BMI and use of related drugs were recorded. The food survey method used was the repeated food recall which was then analyzed using Nutrisurvey 2007. Subjects filled out a questionnaire to obtain data on exposure scores and sun protection scores. The research subjects were students of the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Sriwijaya who were willing to sign informed consent and were present at the time of sampling. Results. The results from the data of 259 subjects showed that 98.8% of the subjects did not meet their vitamin D intake needs, with an average consumption of 123 ± 142 IU. Types of food that contribute the most Vitamin D are catfish (40%) and eggs (20%). None of the subjects took supplements containing Vitamin D. Sun exposure was sufficient for most subjects (62.9%), but most subjects were at risk of deficiency due to the use of sun protection (62.2%) Conclusion. There is a risk of deficiency in most medical students due to a lack of Vitamin D intake and the use of sun protection.
