Background: Increased blood pressure for a long time can increase the risk of kidney failure, co­ronary heart disease, brain damage, and other di­seases. In 2019, it is estimated that hyper­tens­ion is experienced by 1.13 billion people in the world with most (two thirds) living in low and mid­­dle income countries. Other study also shows that the police and military are at risk of develop­ing hypertension due to a number of factors such as low know­led­ge about healthy and nutritious food, co-workers who are smokers, and consum­ing alco­hol. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors for hypertension in the police and military in the world using meta analysis. Subjects and Method: This was a meta-ana­lysis and systematic review. The articles used we­re obtained from Google Scholar, Springer Link, Pro­­Quest, and Science Direct databases. Selected arti­cles published from 2000 to 2020. Keywords to search for articles are as follows: hypertension po­lice personnel and military, or hypertension po­lice personnel and military. The articles studi­ed are 3 full text articles with cross sectional stu­dy designs and 1 full text articles with case cont­rol study design. Articles are col­lect­ed using PRI­S­­­MA diagrams, and analy­zed us­ing the Re­vi­ew Ma­nager application 5.3. Results: Overweight (aOR= 1.42; 95% CI = 1.01 to 2.00; p= 0.04), alcohol consumption (aOR­=­ 1.­55; 95% CI= 1.12 to 2.12; p= 0.007), ciga­rette con­­­­sumption (aOR= 1.45 ; 95% CI= 1.06 to 1.97; p= 0.020) is a risk factor for hyper­­­tension in the po­­­lice and military. Conclusion: Overweight, alcohol consump­tion, and cigarette consump­tion, are risk fac­tors for hypertension in po­lice and military personnel.

Abstract

Background: Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) was a form of complaints that occur in muscles, bones, joints, ligaments and tendons. Globally, musculoskeletal disorders were the single largest cause of work-related health complaints with more than 33% of all new diseases reported. Risk factors that contribute to caused MSDs were social factors. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between social factors related to the risk of MSDs and their effect on changes in cervical posture.Subjects dan Method: This was a cross-sectional study. A sample of 32 were selected for this study with. The sampling technique used was total sampling according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. This study was conducted online through the google-form application by respondents in Surakarta, Central Java from March 2021 to May 2021. The dependent variable was changes in cervical posture. The independent variable was the respondent's characteristics such as work environment and work posture. The data analysis technique used Chi Square test.Results: The results of the analysis using the Chi Square test showed that there was a relationship between work duration and work risk factors with OR= 9.00; 95%CI= 1.72 to 46.9; p=0.010. Based on these results, it can be interpreted that workers with working duration >7 hours per day are 9 times more likely to have a high risk injury risk factor compared to workers who work <7 hours a day. The results of the analysis with the Chi Square test showed that there was a relationship between risk factors for injury and a high risk work environment with forward head posture with OR= 20.00; 95%CI= 2.11 to 189; p=0.003). Workers with risk factors for injury and a high risk work environment are 20 times more likely to experience forward head posture compared to workers with risk factors for injury and a risky work environment.Conclusion: There is a relationship between duration of work with work risk factors, there is a relationship between environmental factors and risk factors for injury and there is a relationship between risk factors for injury and a high-risk work environment with forward head posture.Keywords: pandemic era, musculosceletal disorders, cervical posture change.Correspondence:

Abstract

Background: Obesity is a major contributing factor for poor prognosis in many diseases and COVID-19 is no exception. Studies regarding the relationship between obesity and poor COVID-19 disease severity and outcome are however lacking in the gulf region. This study aimed to examine links between BMI and high mortality rate, duration of intensive care unit admission, and time on mechanical ventilation support among COVID-19 patients under the care of Dubai Health Authority (DHA) in the United Arab Emirates.Subjects dan Method: This was a retrospective, descriptive, record-based study of 637 patients admitted with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 PCR at three tertiary hospitals in Dubai, UAE. Demographic and clinical data were obtained from March 1st, 2020, through June 1st, 2020, all patients aged 18 and above were included, pregnant ladies were excluded. The dependent variables were ICU admission, COVID severity, need of respiratory support, viral clearance. The independent variables were the disease outcome between the obese and non-obese. The data were analyzed using chi-square test.Results: Total 200 (31.4%) were obese, while 435 (68.3%) were not obese. Most patients (81%) were male patients. Data Analysis reveals that obesity is associated with the risk of ICU admissions (OR=2.88, 95%CI=1.9 to 4.37; p<0.001). The findings also indicate that Covid-19 obese patients required higher respiratory support devices compared to non-obese patients (35.8% vs 16.3%, respectively) (OR= 2.87, 95%CI=1.93 to 4.27; p<0.001). Clinical severity at day 7th of hospital admissions among obese patients was direr compared to non-obese patients (34.5% vs 15.9%, respectively) (OR=2.79, 95%CI=1.87 to 4.16; p<0.001). Mortality rate at day 14 of admission were found higher among obese group too (9.5% vs 3.4%) (OR=2.95, 95%CI=1.46to 5.94; p= 0.020).Conclusion: This study indicates that COVID-19 patients with obesity (BMI more than 30 kg/m2) are found to have severer respiratory manifestations, higher mortality rate, prolonged periods of intensive care unit admission, and utilization of invasive mechanical ventilation.
