Abstract

The prevalence of obesity and anemia in adolescents is increasing due to an unbalanced diet and lack of physical activity. Exploration of these issues is essential for balanced nutrition education, increased physical activity, and access to nutritious foods. The study aimed to explore the relationship between body composition and hemoglobin levels among adolescent girls in Semarang City, Indonesia. The study design was cross-sectional with 110 subjects aged 14-17 years from State senior high school 2, 9, and 15 Semarang. Data were collected in September-October 2022. Waist circumferences (WC), height (H), and body fat percentage (%BF) were measured using a waist ruler, microtoise, and Bioelectrical Impedance Analyzer (BIA), respectively. Waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) is defined as waist measurement divided by height measurement in centimeters. Hemoglobin (Hb) levels were determined using point-of-care testing (POCT) methods. Data were analyzed using Rank-Spearman test and Mann-Whitney test. The results showed that among all subjects, 8,2% were anemic, 21,8% were centrally obese, and 40,9% were both obese and overweight. There is no relationship between WC (p=0,54), %BF (p=0,88), and WHtR (p=0,27) with Hb levels. Also, no difference in body composition between anemic and non-anemic adolescent girls (p>0,05). In conclusion, there are no associations between body composition and Hb levels in adolescent girls.

Abstract

Excessive rice consumption with a high glycemic index has a negative effect on health. This study aimed to determine the effects of physical and enzymatic modifications of rice starch on estimated glycemic index (eIG). This study was conducted between June and November 2023. This experimental study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with four treatments: heat moisture treatment (HMT)-microwave, HMT-autoclave, and enzymatic pullulanase (20 units/g rice starch). The observed parameters included the eIG, amylose content, solubility, swelling power, and thermal characteristics. The eIG values  were measured using the in vitro method with four replicates for each treatment. The research data are expressed as the average value ± standard deviation and were analyzed using descriptive methods. The results showed that the HMT-microwave, HMT-autoclave, and enzymatic pullulanase treatments reduced the eIG value of rice starch by 3,06%, 7,19%, and 9,06%, respectively. Thermal analysis using DSC showed that modified starch experienced an increase in the onset temperature (To), peak temperature (Tp), and end-set temperature (Te) compared to normal rice flour. In conclusion, the physical modification of HMT and enzymatic activity can reduce the eIG value of rice starch. This study provides an alternative for the development of functional rice starch-based products with a low glycemic index.

Abstract

Preoperative fasting was implemented to reduce the gastric residual volume (GRV) and mitigate the risk of pulmonary aspiration and hyperglycemia. Hyperglycemia can contribute to systemic infections and surgical wounds in pediatric patients, potentially extending the duration of hospitalization. Preoperative carbohydrate loading within the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol has demonstrated efficacy in reducing the risk of postoperative complications in both adult and pediatric patients. However, scientific studies focusing on pediatric patients remain limited. This study aimed to provide a comprehensive synthesis of the effects of preoperative carbohydrate loading on preoperative GRV and pre- and postoperative blood glucose levels in pediatric surgical patients. Literature was extracted using the PRISMA method, identifying relevant studies from ScienceDirect, PubMed, Sage Journal, and ProQuest databases, using predefined keywords. Articles were screened and reviewed if they included pediatric surgical patients, were randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and had a prospective design following the PICOs model, published between 2014 and 2024. The findings indicate that preoperative carbohydrate loading does not significantly affect preoperative GRV, as evidenced by the absence of residuals (0–12,7 mL), and contributes to the stabilization of pre- and postoperative blood glucose levels (<99 mg/dL). In conclusion, preoperative carbohydrate loading is safe for pediatric patients and may serve as an optimal strategy for improving postoperative outcomes. This approach is expected to support the implementation of preoperative dietary protocols for pediatric patients in hospital settings.

Abstract

Metabolic syndrome is still a global health problem, especially in Indonesia. Oxidative stress is related to metabolic syndrome because it is triggered by hyperglycemia. Synbiotic yogurt containing the whole red dragon fruit has antioxidant and synbiotic potential. This study aimed to determine the effect of synbiotic yogurt with whole red dragon fruit on fasting blood glucose (FBG) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in rats with metabolic syndrome. The design of this study was true-experimental, with a pre-post test and randomized control group design. A total of 24 male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into four groups (K-, K+, P1, P2). Groups K+, P1, and P2 were fed a high-fat, high-fructose diet (HFHFD) for 2 weeks. Groups P1 and P2 were administered synbiotic yogurt intervention of 0,009 mL/gBB/day and 0,018 mL/gBB/day, respectively, for 4 weeks. GOD-PAP method for FBG analysis and TBARS method for MDA analysis.  Data were analyzed using the paired t-test and One-Way ANOVA test. The P1 and P2 groups experienced a significant decrease in FBG levels by 63,45% and 76,07%, respectively (p<0,001), and a significant decrease in MDA by 26,1% and 37,2%, respectively (p<0,001). In conclusion, the administration of synbiotic yogurt at 0,018 mL/gBB/day (200 mL/day for humans) for four weeks was effective in reducing FBG and MDA levels.

Abstract

Broiler chicken (Gallus domesticus) dim sum is a popular food known for its diverse composition and low fiber content. To increase fiber content, ear mushrooms (Auricularia sp.) were added to the dim sum. This study aimed to determine the fiber content, panelists' preference, and the appropriate portion of broiler dim sum as a side dish. The experimental study involved four treatment levels and six replicates with each sample weighing 20 g. This study was conducted in January, 2024. The fiber content test used an enzymatic method, whereas the preference test used a hedonic test assessed by 30 panelists. Data analysis was performed using the Friedman and Wilcoxon tests, as well as one-way ANOVA. The results showed an increase in fiber content, with the highest fiber content found in sample X3 at 2,43 grams. There were differences in color and texture (p<0,05), whereas there were no differences in taste and aroma (p>0,05). Sample X2 is the preferred sample. Therefore, the recommended portion of broiler chicken dim sum (X2) as a comfort food for men and women aged 19-29 years is two pieces. In conclusion, the addition of ear mushrooms can significantly increase the fiber content and preference of broiler chicken dim sums.

Abstract

Sarcopenia is a decrease in muscle mass, strength, and function, which has an impact on reducing physical performance and quality of life and is influenced by dietary intake and physical activity. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between diet, nutritional status, physical activity, and the incidence of sarcopenia.  A cross-sectional study was conducted in Simpati District, West Sumatra, from October to November 2024. The sample consisted of 167 pre-elderly individuals, and the elderly were selected through simple random sampling. Measurements included muscle and fat mass using a digital body composition scale, muscle strength using a handgrip dynamometer, dietary intake using the SQ-FFQ, physical activity using the GPAQ, waist circumference using a waist ruler, and physical performance assessed through the sit-to-stand test. Chi-square test and logistic regression were used for the analysis. Results: The prevalence rate of sarcopenia was 9,6%.  After adjusting for age and sex, waist circumference (p= 0,019; OR= 4,2) was associated with sarcopenia, while after adjusting for age, physical activity (p= 0,016; OR= 4,5), and waist circumference (p= 0,042; OR= 3,3) were associated with sarcopenia. After adjusting for sex, energy intake (p= 0,050; OR= 3,1), physical activity (p= 0,006; OR= 5,7), and waist circumference (p= 0,007; OR= 4,8) were associated with sarcopenia. Conclusion: Energy intake, physical activity, and waist circumference were associated with sarcopenia in elderly and pre-elderly individuals. Appropriate nutritional intervention, increased physical activity, and waist circumference monitoring are essential for sarcopenia management.

Abstract

Diet and nutritional status play an important role in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Pro-inflammatory foods are linked to a decline in kidney function, whereas the nutritional status of obesity is a risk factor for CKD. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between  (DII), nutritional status, and CKD severity. This cross-sectional study was conducted between April and May 2023 at Bogor City Hospital.  A total of 64 patients with CKD were selected using accidental sampling.  Consumption data were collected from the SQ-FFQ, nutritional status was assessed using Body Mass Index (BMI), and disease severity was assessed using creatinine and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) levels. Data were analyzed using ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis, Pearson, and Spearman correlation tests. Results: All subjects had positive DII scores, their nutritional status was mostly in the normal range (59,4%), and almost all subjects had CKD stage 5 (95,3%). No relationships were found between the DII score and creatinine level (p= 0,986) and eGFR (p= 0,359). There was also no relationship between nutritional status and creatinine (p= 0,985 ) and eGFR (0,442). In conclusion, a positive DII score indicated that all subjects consumed more pro-inflammatory foods. Actions are needed to get CKD patients with CKD  who consume more anti-inflammatory foods.

Abstract

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a condition characterized by a decreased glomerular filtration rate (GFR), which can cause the breakdown of protein reserves, resulting in malnutrition. This study aimed to determine the mechanism underlying the relationship between decreased GFR and the risk of malnutrition in pre-dialysis CKD patients.  Scoping review method using PubMed, ScienceDirect, and SpringerLink databases with the criteria of articles published from 2014 to 2024 and using RCTs or cross-sectional studies. Relevant articles were selected through the PRISMA method. The results showed that a decrease in GFR was strongly associated with malnutrition in pre-dialysis CKD through three main mechanisms: increased protein catabolism, decreased serum creatinine/cystatin C ratio, and increased number and diversity of drug prescriptions. Malnutrition due to changes in GFR can be observed through BMI, MUAC, muscle and fat mass, and handgrip strength. In conclusion, the lower the GFR, the higher the risk of malnutrition in pre-dialysis CKD and the lower the BMI value and MUAC size, reduced muscle mass and fat, and decreased handgrip strength and worsening kidney function, as indicated by the lower GFR.

Abstract

The prevalence of stunting cases in Aceh is still very high at 29,4% (2023).  One of the social factors that influence stunting is the local culture in feeding practices. This study aimed to determine the culture that influences feeding practices among children diagnosed with stunting. Qualitative research using ethnographic tools was conducted in Kota Sigli, Aceh in 2022. Data were collected through 112 hours of observation, semi-structured interviews with eight mothers of stunted children, and informal interviews with five community leaders. The data were analyzed using NVivo, and several themes were generated. Results: Child-feeding culture in Aceh plays a role in child growth, both positively and negatively. The tradition of peucicap with dates and breast milk contributes to gut health through the production of bacteriocins that inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria. The 'rice and water' belief encourages breastfeeding from both breasts, increasing colostrum production. The consumption of star gooseberry leaves and banana rice mix contributes to increased weight gain in children. However, some practices, such as ie mom adék and poor hygiene habits, can have a negative impact. Meanwhile, other cultures, such as peutrôn tanôh and superstitious beliefs, tend to be neutral towards child growth. In conclusion, the local culture in Aceh influences the feeding of stunted children, with positive, negative, or neutral effects, depending on practices such as peucicap, consumption of star gooseberry leaves, or poor hygiene.
