Background: Children in primary schools use school bags to carry study material, although the heavy bags are often associated with musculoskeletal problems, especially back pain. This practice requires strength, which significantly changes the body posture and walking pattern, subsequently leading to the incidence of back pain as a side effect. The aim of this study, therefore, is to analyze the differences in bag loads between elementary school children in urban and suburban area, and also analyze the relationship with the occurrence of back pain. Design and methods: This was a cross sectional study, which used stratified random sampling to choose 2 elementary schools each representing the urban and suburban areas. Furthermore, a total sample of 164 students were selected, whose school bag weight were measured for 5 consecutive days, particularly in the morning on respondents arrival at school. Moreover, the occurrence of back pain was evaluated using a modified Nordic map, and data analysis required the use of independent sample analysis t test and χ2 test.Results: The results showed the presence of highly significant differences in the school bags weight of respondents in the urban and suburban areas, as well as between schools using the 2013 curriculum and otherwise. Conclusions: In conclusion, there is a correlation between the weight measured and the occurrence of back pain, hence the 2013 curriculum is recommended to be adopted by all elementary schools. Also, the use of lockers to store items used at school repeatedly by children is also highly encouraged.

Abtract: Intestinal worm infections are transmitted via soil (soil-transmitted helminth) is a global problem, especially in developing countries. The main worm infections caused by Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura, and hookworm (necator americanus and Ancylostoma duodenale). Worm infections affect the digestion, absorption, and metabolism of food could result in loss of protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins and large amounts of blood as well as lower mean hemoglobin concentration. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of helminth infection with hemoglobin levels of elementary school children GMIM Buha Manado. This research was an observational analytic cross-sectional approach. Sebjek study as many as 80 children. Results showed that children infected with worms very significant effect on levels of hemoglobin (p < 0.001). Children who are infected with worms had lower hemoglobin levels when compared with children who are not infected with the worm. Children who are infected with the worm hemoglobin level falls to 9.5 g/dl. Keywords: elementary school children - a worm infection - hemoglobin.   Abstrak: Infeksi cacing usus yang ditularkan melalui tanah (soil transmitted helminth) merupakan masalah dunia terutama di negara sedang berkembang. Infeksi cacing utama disebabkan oleh ascaris lumbricoides, trichuris trichiura, dan cacing tambang (necator americanus dan ancylostoma duodenale). Infeksi cacing berpengaruh terhadap pencernaan, penyerapan, serta metabolisme makanan yang dapat berakibat hilangnya protein, karbohidrat, lemak, vitamin dan darah dalam jumlah besar serta menurunkan konsentrasi hemoglobin rerata. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hubungan infeksi cacing dengan kadar hemoglobin anak sekolah dasar GMIM Buha Manado. Jenis penelitian adalah observasional analitik dengan pendekatan cross sectional. Sebjek penelitian sebanyak 80 anak. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa anak-anak yang terinfeksi cacing berpengaruh sangat bermakna terhadap kadar hemoglobin (p < 0,001). Anak-anak yang terinfeksi cacing memiliki kadar hemoglobin lebih rendah bila dibandingkan dengan anak-anak yang tidak terinfeksi cacing. Anak-anak yang terinfeksi cacing kadar hemoglobinnya turun hingga mencapai 9,5 g/dl. Kata kunci: anak SD - infeksi cacing - kadar hemoglobin

Purpose: Schools provide opportunities for children to accumulate recommended daily moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA). This study aimed to determine physical activity (PA) across the school day among elementary school children in Qatar. Methods: This cross-sectional study recruited 181 Grade 1 (5.8 ± 0.4 years) and Grade 4 (9.0 ± 0.5 years) children. Participants wore wrist-based accelerometers for 5 days to assess school-based PA. MVPA during physical education, recess, and class time were compared across sex, grade, and body mass index using general linear models. Results: Only 39.0% of this cohort met the recommended 30 min of MVPA during school hours. Fewer girls (23.2%) than boys (58.1%) achieved the school-based PA guidelines (p < .001). The children engaged in 19.0 ± 12.3%, 19.3 ± 8.6%, and 6.2 ± 3.4% of the designated physical education, recess, and class time in MVPA, respectively. Conclusion: Elementary school children in Qatar engage in inadequate MVPA during the school day, especially girls. Enhancing PA opportunities during physical education and recess is crucial.
