Abstract

Serum uric acid (SUA) is the end product of purine metabolism in humans. When the body makes too much uric acid and the kidneys don't get rid of it quickly enough, this is called hyperuricemia. This leads to gouty arthritis because monosodium urate crystals build up in the joints. Normal SUA levels are 3.5–7.0 mg/dL in men and 2.6–6.0 mg/dL in women, influenced by diet, genetics, kidney function and medications. The prevalence of hyperuricemia is increasing globally, both in developed and developing countries. Although often asymptomatic, elevated SUA can cause tissue damage and increase the risk of hypertension, dyslipidemia, obesity, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and chronic kidney disease (CKD). This activity uses the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Action) method for early detection of hyperuricemia in the elderly at Hana Nursing Home, South Tangerang. Blood test results revealed hyperuricemia in 16 people (26.23%). Routine SUA screening helps identify individuals at risk and allows for preventive measures such as dietary changes and regular exercise.

Abstract

Hypertension is a condition in which the pressure in the blood vessels is too high and is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease. This study aims to evaluate the role of metabolic and anthropometric parameters in assessing the risk of hypertension in the productive age group in Duri Kosambi. This study used a cross-sectional design with 125 respondents aged 18-59 years. Data were collected through measurements of blood pressure, hemoglobin levels, fasting blood sugar, uric acid, BMI, waist circumference, and body composition using BIA. Linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between variables. Hemoglobin levels, fasting blood sugar, waist circumference, and major body skeletal muscle mass were found to have a significant effect on systolic blood pressure. Meanwhile, fasting blood sugar and visceral fat showed a significant effect on diastolic blood pressure. Metabolic and anthropometric parameters have an important role in assessing the risk of hypertension, indicating the need for appropriate interventions to reduce the risk of hypertension and related complications.
