Abstract

Imbalance of body lipid levels, especially total cholesterol and HDL, is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disorders. A simple lipid profile examination can be used to detect potential atherogenic dyslipidemia that has not shown clinical symptoms. Total cholesterol and HDL levels were examined in 104 participants using the Point-of-Care Testing (POCT) technique. Education was provided individually using leaflets, which contained information on the effects of saturated fat and trans fat consumption, and the importance of unsaturated fat and fiber intake on lipid profiles. Most participants had total cholesterol levels within normal limits. However, more than half of the population showed low to very low HDL levels, indicating hidden metabolic risks. Dietary education was provided in a targeted manner according to the results of each participant's examination. Total cholesterol and HDL examinations were used to assess the risk of lipid disorders early on. Nutrition education based on examination results is useful in raising awareness of the importance of regulating diet to reduce the risk of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular complications.

Abstract

Falls among older adults and individuals with chronic conditions pose a major public health concern, leading to injuries, reduced quality of life, and increased healthcare costs. Identifying modifiable risk factors is crucial for prevention. Muscle strength, particularly in the lower extremities, and renal function, measured by glomerular filtration rate (GFR), are potential predictors of fall risk. Sarcopenia and chronic kidney disease (CKD) exacerbate muscle weakness, impairing balance and mobility. While the Morse Fall Scale (MFS) assesses clinical and environmental risks, it lacks physiological measures like muscle strength and renal function. This study aims to bridge this gap by examining associations between muscle strength, GFR, and fall risk, enhancing fall risk assessments and contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of fall prevention. This cross-sectional study at Bina Bakti Nursing Home was done in 2024 examined muscle strength, GFR, and fall risk in 93 elderly (≥60 years). Participants provided consent; those with incomplete data were excluded. Partial correlation analysis showed strong right-left grip strength correlation (p < 0.001) but no significant associations with Morse Fall Scale scores (p = 0.058, p = 0.093), suggesting grip strength alone poorly predicts fall risk. This study confirms grip strength as a reliable muscle function measure but not a strong fall risk predictor. Age plays a dominant role, necessitating fall prevention strategies integrating balance, mobility, cognition, and environment. Renal function did not directly influence fall risk but may contribute indirectly through frailty, warranting further investigation.

Abstract

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a metabolic disorder that is increasingly prevalent among the productive-age population and can significantly impair quality of life, particularly due to its progressive nature and often asymptomatic presentation in the early stages. Routine assessments of kidney function—such as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and serum creatinine levels—are essential for the early detection of kidney impairment. The Community Service Program (PKM) conducted in Grogol Village aimed to raise public awareness regarding the importance of early screening for kidney dysfunction. Among the 71 participants involved in the activity, 9 individuals (12.68%) had elevated serum creatinine levels, 4 individuals (5.63%) showed evidence of stage 3a kidney function decline, and 31 individuals (43.66%) were identified with stage 2 kidney function decline. Only 36 participants (50.7%) had normal kidney function. These results underscore the necessity of early detection efforts to prevent the progression of CKD and to promote sustained public awareness on the importance of maintaining kidney and metabolic health.
