Abstract: Physiologically, nose has several functions such as a filter and the first-line defence as well as protectve organ against the negative impacts of the environment. The nose is also useful to clean the air from dust, bacteria, and viruses through a mucociliary transport mechanism. Generally, the important role of smell has lack of public attention until eventually disorders or injuries that can disturb the ability and physiological function of the nose occur. This was an observational descriptive study with a cross sectional design. Respondents were 30 students in Sekolah Polisi Negara (State police school) Karombasan Manado; all were males. Nose health status of every respondent was determined by examination of the nasal cavity, conchae, mucous layer, secretion, septum, and post nasal drips. The results showed that from the 30 respondents, there was edema at the right conchae and left conchae each as many as 6.7%. Examination of septum showed that septum deviation of the right nose. Examination of nasal cavity, mucosa layer, secretion and post nasal drips overall resulted in normal category. Conclusion: Nose health status at Sekolah Polisi Negara Karombasan Manado was categorized as good.Keywords: nose health, physical examination of nose Abstrak: Secara fisiologis hidung mempunyai beberapa fungsi antara lain sebagai penyaring dan pertahanan lini pertama serta pelindung tubuh terpenting terhadap lingkungan yang tidak menguntungkan.

ABSTRACT The aging process and changes in the gastrointestinal make the elderly experience health problems in maintaining body mass index (BMI), due to consuming unhealthy nutrition. This can cause the elderly to experience hypertension. The objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between characteristic, BMI and Blood Pressure (BP) in the elderly in Integrated Development Post (posbindu), Bondowoso District. Descriptive analytic research using cross-sectional design on 95 elderly chosen based on cluster random sampling. Data collection was carried out by interview to measure sociodemography status and measurement of BP, weight, and height of the elderly using spigmomanometer, scales and measuring tape. Analysis of the relationship between BMI and BP using spearman rank correlation test. The results showed that most BMI was normal (22,18 ± 3,833). As for systolic blood pressure with median 130.0 mmHg (120.0 – 150.0 mmHg) and diastolic with median 80.0 mmHg (72.0 – 90.0 mmHg). There was no relationship between BMI and systolic BP (r = 0,155; p = 0,134) and diastolic BP (r = 0,200; p = 0,052). However, there was a significant relationship between history of hypertension and systolic BP (Z = -6,351; p = ≤ 0,001) and diastolic BP (Z = -5,834; p = ≤ 0,001) in the elderly. BMI is not related to BP both systolic and diastolic. However, a history of hypertension is associated with systolic and diastolic BP in the elderly in posbindu, Bondowoso district. Therefore, it is necessary to control BMI, so that normal BMI can be maintained and BP is more controlled through the elderly in posbindu.    ABSTRAK Proses penuaan dan perubahan dalam gastrointestinal membuat lansia mengalami masalah kesehatan dalam mempertahankan indeks massa tubuh (IMT) karena mengonsumsi gizi yang tidak sehat. Hal ini dapat mengakibatkan lansia mengalami hipertensi. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk menganalisis hubungan antara karakteristik, indeks massa tubuh dengan tekanan darah pada lansia di Posbindu Kabupaten Bondowoso. Penelitian ini deskriptif analitik dengan menggunakan metode cross sectional pada 95 lansia yang dipilih berdasarkan cluster random sampling. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan wawancara untuk mengukur status sosio-demografi dan pengukuran tekanan darah, berat badan, dan tinggi badan lanjut usia menggunakan spigmomanometer, timbangan, dan pita pengukur. Analisis hubungan antara IMT dengan tekanan darah menggunakan uji korelasi Spearman Rank. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar indeks massa tubuh yaitu normal (22,18 ± 3,833). Sedangkan untuk tekanan darah sistolik median 130,0 mmHg (120,0-150,0 mmHg) dan diastolik median 80,0 mmHg (72,0-90,0 mmHg), menunjukkan lansia paling banyak adalah prehipertensi. Tidak ada hubungan antara IMT dengan tekanan darah sistolik (r = 0,155; p = 0,134) dan tekanan darah diastolik (r = 0,200; p = 0,052). Namun, ada hubungan yang signifikan antara riwayat hipertensi dengan tekanan darah sistolik (Z = -6.351; p = ≤ 0,001) dan tekanan darah diastolik (Z = -5.834; p = ≤ 0,001) pada lansia. IMT tidak berhubungan dengan tekanan darah baik sistolik maupun diastolik. Akan tetapi, karakteristik riwayat hipertensi berhubungan dengan tekanan darah sistolik dan diastolik pada lansia di Posbindu Kabupaten Bondowoso. Oleh karena itu, perlu pengontrolan IMT, sehingga dapat dipertahankan IMT normal dan tekanan darah lebih terkontrol melalui posbindu lansia.

<p>The risk of hypertension increases in line with a changes in modern lifestyle. Elderly tends to select food such as junk food with high calories, and fat, but low in fi ber and other nutrients. Junk food contains high amounts of sodium that can increase the volume of blood in the body, so make stronger heart blood pumps and cause the higher blood pressure (hypertension). The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship between junk food consumption and hypertension in elderly in Kasihan sub-district Bantul, Yogyakarta. This was an observational analytic study with cross sectional design. The samples were 100 elderly lives in Kasihan sub-district Bantul, Yogyakarta. The results showed that there was relationship between the consumption of junk food and hypertension. Respondents who suffered from hypertension were 49 (67.1%) who often consumed junk food and 24 respondents (32.9%) who rarely consumed junk food. Respondents who did not undergo hypertension were 9 respondents (33.3%) that often consumed junk food and 18 respondents (66.7%) that rarely consumed junk food. In conclusion, there was a relationship between junk food consumption and hypertension in elderly. Risk of hypertension in respondents who consumed more often junk food were 4.083 times higher than them who rarely consumed junk food.</p>

Abstract: Hypertension is an increase in blood pressure above normal. It is categorized as a silent disease because people do not know whether they suffer from hypertension or not until their blood pressures were checked. This study aimed to obtain the relationship between hypertension and cognitive function. This was an analytical study with a cross sectional design. Subjects were adult hypertensive patients who came to the Clinic of Internal Medicine Department Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado. The results showed that there were 45 patients as subjects consisted of 20 males and 25 females. There was a tendency that the higher systolic or diastolic blood pressure, the lower the cognitive function. Among patients with hypertension ≥5 years there was a highly significant relationship between duration of hypertension and impaired cognitive function. According to MMSE results of cognitive function, there were 27 patients with normal cognitive function, 2 patients with moderate impairment, and 16 patients with mild impairment. There was no cases of severe disorder.Keywords: hypertension, cognitive functionAbstrak: Hipertensi adalah suatu keadaan dimana terjadi peningkatan tekanan darah di atas normal pada pemeriksaan tekanan darah.

Background: Obesity has been recognised as a major risk factor in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of central obesity [using waist–hip ratio (WHR) as an indicator] and the correlation between central obesity and blood pressure (BP) in adults seen in a Nigerian tertiary health facility.Materials and methods: The study was a cross-sectional design carried out between February and November 2015 at the General Outpatient Clinic of the Federal Medical Centre, Owerri, Nigeria. A total of 482 consenting adults aged 16–40 years formed the study population. Consecutive sampling was used in the recruitment of subjects, whereas data were collected by the use of an interviewer-administered questionnaire.Results: The mean age of the study population was 25.37 ± 5.49, whereas the mean WHR for men and women was 0.83 ± 0.04 and 0.82 ± 0.05, respectively. The prevalence of central obesity in the study population was 39.4% (n = 190). Female respondents had a higher prevalence (59.2%) than male respondents (8.5%), and the relationship between central obesity and sex was statistically significant (p = 0.001). Correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between WHR and BP (diastolic BP: r = 0.122, p = 0.008; systolic BP: r = 0.015, p = 0.742) in both sexes. Obese respondents were observed to be more likely to develop hypertension than the non-obese respondents.Conclusion: This study showed a correlation between central obesity and BP in adults aged 16–40 years.

Physical activity in addition to dealing with heart rate, will cause an increase in blood pressure (Sulastri et al., 2012). Exercise or physical activity carried out regularly and regularly can turn a stressor into a stimulator. But if physical activity is done irregularly, the stressor will inhibit the homeostatic process in the body. The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between the frequency of playing badminton and blood pressure in PB UNMUH Ponorogo members. The research will be conducted on PB UNMUH Ponorogo members, a representative sample of 33 respondents taken by Purposive Sampling. Quantitative design with Cross sectional design that studies the frequency of playing badminton and blood pressure. The instrument in this study used a questionnaire and observation sheet. Univariate analysis uses frequency distribution. Gamma Test to find out the relationship between the frequency of playing badminton and blood pressure. The results of the study showed that the majority of PB UNMUH Ponorogo's members of badminton played mostly (48.5%) or 16 people twice a week. Blood pressure of 39.4% or 13 respondents was normal. There is a relationship between the frequency of playing badminton with the incidence of hypertension in members of PB UNMUH Ponorogo with P = 0.020 (= 0.05). The closeness of the value (Value) is -0.452. It is expected that PB UNMUH Ponorogo members can do badminton training regularly and the intensity is adjusted to their respective abilities in order to achieve optimal fitness and avoid hypertension or other heart disease. Keywords: frequency of playing badminton, blood pressure.
