Abstract

The global prevalence of obesity has increased significantly in the last five decades. Obesity is associated with a higher mortality rate compared to malnutrition. Obesity is a risk factor for non-communicable diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (type 2 DM), cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, chronic kidney disease (CKD), dyslipidemia, hypertension, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, certain types of cancer, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), osteoarthritis, and depression. Reports from the World Obesity Federation, estimated one billion people in the world are obese, where 1 in 7 men are obese, and 1 in 5 women are obese. Anthropometry is a method of measurement that is simple, fast, cheap and internationally accepted. Anthropometry is widely used for the initial diagnosis of overall body fat and central obesity. Dalung Village is one of the villages in the Cipocok Jaya District, Serang Regency. This service activity is aimed at getting an overview of obesity in the adult community in the village of Dalung, Serang, Banten so that further prevention efforts can be planned. This activity is designed using the P-D-C-A (Plan-Do-Check-Action) framework. Based on measurements, the prevalence of central obesity in adult males ≥18 years was 44% and in adult females ≥18 years was 60%. The results obtained require follow-up in order to prevent an increase in the prevalence of central obesity and also the incidence of metabolic syndrome.

Abstract

Depression is a common mental disorder in the elderly, associated with emotional distress, increased health care costs, the risk of suicide, and death from other causes. Depression in the elderly is characterised by persistent sadness, helplessness, anhedonia, changes in appetite, sleep disturbances, psychomotor retardation or agitation, fatigue, impaired concentration, and suicidal ideation. Prevalence varies between 7 and 30%, higher in women. Risk factors include bereavement, social isolation, and somatic diseases, which are more common in old age. Depression increases the risk of dementia, morbidity, and mortality, emphasising the need for early screening. This activity uses the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) method to screen for depression in 61 elderly participants at the Hana Nursing Home using the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) questionnaire. The examination results revealed mild, moderate, and severe depression in 8 people (13.11%), 4 people (6.56%), and 2 people (3.28%), respectively. Early detection using GDS is essential for timely intervention, including counselling and medical advice, to improve quality of life and reduce depression-related morbidity and mortality in the elderly population.
