Abstract

Hypertension in children is a serious threat due to a sedentary modern lifestyle. Low physical activity and high screen time are strongly suspected to be risk factors for increased blood pressure. Objective: To analyze the relationship between physical activity levels and television viewing/lying down duration with blood pressure in school-aged children in Mluweh Village. Methods: This observational study involved 105 students (6-17 years old) selected by total sampling. Blood pressure was classified based on the 2017 AAP Clinical Practice Guideline standards. Physical activity and television viewing/lying down duration were measured using a modified GPAQ questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test (α = 0.05). Results: The majority of respondents had light physical activity (64.7%) and high television viewing/lying down duration (94.3%). Statistical analysis showed no significant relationship between physical activity levels and blood pressure (p = 0.814). However, a statistically significant relationship was found between television viewing/lying down duration and blood pressure (p = 0.027). Conclusion: High television viewing/lying down time exceeding 2 hours per day is a strong predictor of increased blood pressure in children. Limiting screen time from an early age is necessary to minimize the risk of long-term cardiovascular disorders.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of sports facilities and infrastructure in supporting the achievement development of pencak silat athletes in IPSI Jepara Regency. The research is grounded in the premise that adequate training facilities are crucial for effective coaching, athlete motivation, and performance outcomes. A qualitative approach was applied, employing in-depth interviews and participatory observations. Participants consisted of 5 athletes (3 male, 2 female), 3 coaches, and 2 IPSI administrators. Data were analyzed through reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the availability of facilities and infrastructure remains limited in both quantity and quality, affecting training effectiveness, athlete comfort, and self-confidence in competitions. Nevertheless, athletes and coaches maintain strong motivation despite the minimal training environment. The study concludes that improving the quality and availability of sports facilities is essential to enhance pencak silat performance at regional and national levels
