Abstract

Obesity is an excessive accumulation of fat due to an imbalance in energy intake (eating, drinking) with the energy used for a long time. Obesity is a modifiable risk of diabetes mellitus (DM). Screening for obesity and blood glucose in at-risk individuals is very important to prevent the incidence of DM. Routine nutritional status and blood glucose examinations for susceptible ages and people with DM still need to be carried out to monitor therapy and prevent severity. One way that can be used to determine obesity is through an abdominal circumference examination. The normal abdominal circumference for women is 80 cm for and for men 90 cm. This community service activity is aimed at the early detection of obesity and DM incidence by targeting the elderly and elderly in the 20 Ilir D-IV Village. The activity was carried out by lecturers and students of the Faculty of Medicine, Sriwijaya University, in collaboration with cadres of the Raflesia Elderly Posyandu, Kelurahan 20 Ilir D-IV, in the working area of ​​the Talang Ratu Health Center. The results of the examination showed that most of the participants were centrally obese, but only 2 people had blood glucose levels >200 mg/dL. It is necessary to periodically screen through the Raflesia Elderly Posyandu and creates a program to reduce the level of central obesity and increase blood glucose levels in the community of Kelurahan 20 Ilir D-IV.

Abstract

Background: Habitual consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) is linked to elevated blood glucose and increased body weight. Medical students often experience high stress, which may increase SSBs consumption. This study aimed to examine the associations between SSB consumption, fasting blood glucose, body mass index (BMI), and waist circumference among medical students.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in October 2022 using a total sampling method involving 184 first-year students at the Faculty of Medicine Universitas Sriwijaya, Palembang, Indonesia. SSBs consumption was assessed using a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire (SQ-FFQ). Fasting blood glucose was measured by  glucometer after an overnight fast. Body height, weight, and waist circumference were measured using a stadiometer, digital scale, and tape measure, respectively. Physical activity was assessed with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire–Short Form (IPAQ-SF). Associations were tested using Kruskall Wallis, independent t-test, and chi square as appropriate.Results: Most students consumed SSBs 3–4 times per week and in amount >495 mL. The volume of SSBs consumption was associated with BMI (p=0.02), fasting blood glucose (p<0.001), and waist circumference (p<0.01). Similarly, the frequency of SSBs consumption was associated with fasting blood glucose (p=0.04) and waist circumference (p<0.01), but not with BMI (p=0.16). Conclusion: Consumption of SSBs among students is high. Frequent and high-volume consumption of SSBs is associated with elevated fasting blood glucose levels and the nutritional status, whereas higher volume is associated with increased BMI. Reducing SSB intake and promoting healthier beverage choices may support a sustainable healthy lifestyle in young adults.
