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

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. Obesity is an excessive fat accumulation in the body, now the prevalence is increasing in the group aged>18 years based on Body Mass Index (BMI). Nowadays body fat percentage has been declared to assess the risk factor of disease-related body weight better than BMI, people with proportioned weight had excessive body fat percentage evenly. Excessive fat intake is one of the important factors for obesity. The objective of this study was to analyze the association between fat intake with body fat percentage. Methods. This study was conducted with a cross-sectional design on 275 medical faculty students of Sriwijaya University, starting from August until December 2017 by collecting primary data through completing forms, food records, questionnaires, and physical examinations. Results. The results were analyzed statistically using chi-square. 67.3% of subjects had excessive body fat percentage and 50.2% with excessive fat intake. Results by the chi-square test indicate a negative association between fat intake with body fat percentage (p value=0.184). Conclusion. Fat intake with body fat percentage was negatively associated.
