Physical inactivity is an important risk factor for many causes of death, chronic morbidity, and disability. Poor physical activity is also a common world health problem and is a priority of the international health world. Facts are accompanied by clear evidence of an inactivity link to many increased risks of chronic diseases, including heart disease, stroke, and cancer. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between body mass index, physical activity, and occupation in women 50-60 years in Pondok Kelapa Village, Duren Sawit sub-district, East Jakarta. The design of this study is cross-sectional with a total of 130 samples that have been selected by systematic random sampling. The subjects (n = 130) were interviewed using a questionnaire about daily activity in the previous week. Data were analyzed using spss program (Spearman Correlation And Mann Whitney Test). The results of this study indicate that the relationship between physical activity and body mass index is not significant (p = 0.493; p> 0.05; r = 0.61). And the relationship between work and Body Mass Index did not have a significant relationship (p> 0.05). Conclusion: physical activity should be measured and for further research not only interviewed using questionnaires. Keywords : Physical Activity, Body Mass Index, Occupation

Physical fitness is one of the most important things especially for teens due to their highactivities. Factors that affect physical fitness such as physical activity and BMI/Age. This study aimsto find out the relationship between body mass index based on age (BMI/Age) and physical activitywith physical fitness of SMKN Jawa Tengah Semarang students. This study use quantitative approachwith cross sectional research method. Population used in this study are 118 tenth graders and thesampel are 55 students. Statistic analysis in this study use Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Rank Spearmantest. The result shows that most of 16-year-olds participants are 39 students (70,9%) and 45 studentsare male. Fourty nine students (81,8%) have normal BMI/Age which 28 participants have kind ofheavy activities and the physical fitness of 31 participants count as good categoy. This study showthere is no relationship between IMT/U with physical fitness (p = 0,252 and r = 0,160) and there isa relationship between physical activity with physical fitness (p = 0,003 and r = 0,391).

Background: Scoliosis is a deformity of spine that has excessive lateral curve. The deformity could becaused by postural adaptation to an imbalance of local trunk muscles or by another risk factors. There are tworisk factors, that are obesity and physical activity, which have not been studied in Indonesia yet about theircorrelation with scoliosis The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between body mass index andphysical activity with scoliosis in young adults.Method: Study design was cross sectional. The subjects were High School students in Depok, recruited byconsecutive non-random sampling. The body mass index (BMI) was measured by body weight (Kg)/bodyheight (m2). The intensity of physical activity measured subjectively by International Physical ActivityQuestionnaires (IPAQ). Detection of postural scoliosis was by inspection and palpation and the deviationmeasured by scoliometer. The data were presence in univariate and bivariate, analyzed by the Pearsen Chisquare.Results: This study conducted in 165 subjects, the mean of age was 16-17 years old. There was no correlationbetween BMI and scoliosis (p=0,11). However the higher intensity of physical activity has correlated with thelower frequency of scoliosis (p=0.00).Conclusions: The lower intensity of physical activity increase the frequency of the postural scoliosis, in theother hand there was no correlation between BMI and scoliosis in young adults.Keywords : Scoliosis, Obesity, Physical activity

Introduction. One of the reasons of obesity in university students might be mindful eating. Aim. This study was performed to evaluate the relationship between mindful eating, body mass index (BMI) and physical activity in nursing students. Material and methods. This cross-sectional study was conducted with 718 nursing students in a university in Turkey. “Personal Information Form” and “Mindful Eating Questionnaire (MEQ)” were used as data collection tools. Results. Statistically significant differences were found between some mean subscale and total scores of MEQ based on sex of the students, their state of exercising regularly, number of their meals, their state of having snacks, the type of bread they often consumed and the frequency of eating fast foods (p<0.05). A significant relationship was found between age and BMI of the students and their mean subscale and total scores of MEQ (p<0.05). Conclusion. The older the nursing students grew, the higher their level of mindful eating became. Sociodemographic characteristics such as sex and presence of a person with obesity within the family affected subscales of their mindful eating. Mindful eating decreased as body mass index increased; and besides, mindful eating increased as physical activity increased.

Decreased metabolic processes in the elderly followed by decreased physical activity, causing the addition of calories to be converted into fat resulting in overweight. Overweight is one factor that can affect blood pressure and trigger hypertension, so conducted research to determine the relationship between body mass index with blood pressurein the elderly. A cross sectional analytic study with elderly research sample in Pererenan Village of Mengwi Sub-district of Badung Regency was 104 people selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results showed a significant correlation between body mass index and blood pressure in elderly (p <0.05) and the results showed a thinBMI (15.4%), normal (31.7%), overweight (20.2%), obese I (29.8%), obesity II (2.9%). Similarly, in the frequency of hypotension (1.9%), normal (36.5%), hypertension (34.6%), hypertension I (7.7%), hypertension II (2.9%) . The sample is more overweight, obese than the normal category. For the category of blood pressure more on pre hypertension andhypertension. Thus, excess body mass index can affect the elderly blood pressure. Keywords: body mass index, blood pressure, elderly

Objective: To establish the relationship between lifestyle for prevention of cervix and breast cancer and perceptual cognitive factors from the Pender model in working women. Materials and methods: Correlation and cross-sectional study with a random sample of 143 working women. The Lifestyle index is the total score of 5 variables: Papanicolau test, breast self-exam, physical activity, body mass index, and cigarette smoking. Results: The mean age for the sample was 44.4 + 6.2; 87% of the women had higher education and 85% were working in health care services. A total of 89% of the women had unhealthy lifestyles because of the lack of regular physical activity, not having a Papanicolau test according to the norm, not practicing breast self-exams, and having an altered body mass index. There was significant correlation between lifestyle and occupation, and also with self-efficacy perception for breast self-examination. Conclusion: The lifestyles for most of the women sampled were unhealthy. Recommendations: It is also recommend conducting culturally sensitive healthcare campaigns in addition to setting up flexible attention schedules for women.

Abstract The β3-adrenergic receptor (ADRB3) is expressed mainly in visceral adipose tissue and is thought to contribute to lipolysis and the delivery of free fatty acids to the portal vein. Although many studies have examined the relationship between the Trp64Arg mutation of ADRB3 and obesity, the results have been inconsistent. We examined the cross-sectional relationship of ADRB3 variants with indexes of obesity, and their longitudinal changes over 10 yr, in men and women, aged 40–69 yr, who were randomly selected from the Japanese rural population. The study considered both dietary energy intake and physical activity levels. Among the 746 participants, the genotype frequencies of the Trp64Trp, Trp64Arg, and Arg64Arg variants were 483, 224, and 39, respectively. The cross-sectional analysis showed no significant differences in height, weight, body mass index, blood pressure, serum total and high density lipoprotein cholesterols, and hemoglobin A1c among the genotype groups even after adjustments for gender, age, smoking, alcohol drinking, physical activity, and energy intake. No significant differences in the weight changes between the genotype groups were evident in the longitudinal analysis. We conclude that the Trp64Arg mutation of ADRB3 has little or no influence on either body weight or body mass index in the general Japanese population.
