Diet mengendalikan hipertensi orang Indonesia di Jakarta (dietary approach to stop hypertension for Indonesian at Jakarta, disingkat DASHI-J) dan olahraga jalan cepat dapat mengurangi berat badan dan menurunkan tekanan darah pada pasien prahipertensi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengevaluasi diet dan olahraga tersebut dengan desain penelitian clinical trial terhadap 100 laki-laki berusia 25 – 55 tahun di PT Krama Yudha Ratu Motor. Responden dialokasikan secara acak dalam 4 kelompok perlakuan meliputi kelompok diet (A), kelompok olahraga jalan cepat (B), kelompok diet dan olahraga jalan cepat (C), dan kelompok kontrol (D). Kelompok A dan C menerima diet 5 hari dalam seminggu selama 8 minggu. Kelompok diet DASHI-J diberikan makan siang dan makan malam. Setelah 2 bulan intervensi, berat badan, indeks massa tubuh, visceral fat, body fat, lingkar perut, tekanan darah sistolik dan diastolik, kolesterol serum dari semua kelompok menurun secara signifikan. Penurunan tertinggi terjadi pada kelompok diet DASHI-J dan olahraga jalan cepat dengan penurunan berat badan 4,18 kg, indeks massa tubuh 1,50 kg/m2, tekanan darah 12,00 mmHg/8,60 mmHg. Diet DASHI-J dan olahraga jalan cepat berperan menurunkan berat badan, indeks massa tubuh, serta tekanan darah sistolik dan diastolik.Dietary approach to stop hypertension for Indonesian at Jakarta (DASHI-J) and brisk walking exercise could reduce body weight and blood pressure of males prehypertension. The objective of the study was to evaluate DASHI-J by an experimental clinical trial conducted with 100 male subjects, aged 25 – 55 years divided randomly into 4 groups: DASHI-J diet group (A), brisk walking exercise group (B), DASHI-J and brisk walking exercise group (C), and control group (D). Group A and C got 5 days a week for 8 weeks diet. DASHI-J group was given lunch and dinner. After 2 months of intervension, the body weight, body mass index, body fat, visceral fat, waist circumference, systole, diastole, cholesterol serum of the groups all reduce significantly. The highest reduction of those intervention achieved by DASHI-J and brisk walking exercise group with body weight decreased 4.18 kg, Body Mass Index (BMI) 1.50 kg/m2, blood pressure 12.00/8.60 mmHg. This implies that DASHI-J and brisk walking exercise play a significant role in reducing body weight, BMI, and both sistolic and diastolic blood pressure.

Background:Brisk walking is the most popular activity for obesity management for adults. We aimed to identify whether participant age, sex and body mass index (BMI) influenced the effectiveness of brisk walking.Methods:A search of 9 databases was conducted for randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Two investigators selected RCTs reporting on change in body weight, BMI, waist circumference, fat mass, fat-free mass, and body fat percentage following a brisk walking intervention in obese adults.Results:Of the 5072 studies screened, 22 met the eligibility criteria. The pooled mean differences were: weight loss, –2.13 kg; BMI, –0.96 kg/m2; waist circumference, –2.83 cm; fat mass, –2.59 kg; fat-free mass, 0.29 kg; and body fat percentage, –1.38%. Meta-regression of baseline BMI showed no effect on changes.Conclusions:Brisk walking can create a clinically significant reduction in body weight, BMI, waist circumference, and fat mass for obese men and women aged under 50 years. Obese women aged over 50 years can achieve modest losses, but gains in fat-free mass reduce overall change in body weight. Further research is required for men aged over 50 years and on the influence of BMI for all ages and sexes.

Abstract Steamed ginger ethanolic extract (SGE) is a product with a high 6-shogaol contents and is thought to be more potent than other ginger products. We conducted a 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to determine the effects of SGE on weight and body fat loss. Eighty healthy obese participants were recruited and randomly divided into the SGE and placebo groups. The outcome measures comprised indicators of efficacy (body weight, body mass index, body composition, and blood markers) and safety. Following the supplementation period, mean body weight, body mass index, and body fat level were significantly lower in the SGE group than in the placebo group. No clinically significant changes were observed for any safety parameter. These results suggest that SGE is a potent anti-obesity agent that does not cause significant side effects. Therefore, SGE supplementation combined with lifestyle modification could be effective in the management of body weight and fat mass.

Body mass index (BMI) is a significant marker in assessing the health risk factors of an individual. Although, the discovery of BMI is over 200 years, however, its application as a measure of health is fairly new. Hitherto, the prevalence of higher BMI amongst university students is on the rise. Consequently, the present study endeavor to investigate the association of BMI and other health-related parameters namely; per cent body fat, visceral fat, basal metabolic rate (BMR), systolic and diastolic blood pressure, resting heart rate, core and upper muscle endurance, maximum oxygen consumption (V02max) and metabolic equivalent (MET). A total number of 232 university students were enrolled and completed the physical fitness assessments and health indicator measurement of the variables. A multiple Linear Regression (MLR) was used to observe the association of the BMI as the dependent variable with the physical fitness as well as health parameters as independent variables. A significant regression model was obtained F (3.225, 5) = 301.104, P <0.0001, R2 = 0.869 demonstrating that the model has accounted for about 87% variability of the whole dataset. Sensitivity analysis demonstrated that per cent body fat, visceral fat, BMR, as well as VO2max, are the major contributors towards the model prediction P <0.001. Moreover, positive significant relationships were detected between the BMI, per cent body fat, visceral fat, BMR, systolic and diastolic blood pressure whilst negative association between the BMI and performance in upper muscle endurance and VO2max were noted. BMI index could be a potential marker of assessing university students’ health-related risks that would consequently reveal vital information about their overall health status.

AbstractPomegranate (Punica granatum), a polyphenol-rich fruit, has been suggested to reduce cardiovascular risk due to its antioxidant properties. Hypertension and obesity are the most preventable cardiovascular risk factors. Few studies on blood pressure and/or body-weight status have been conducted in human subjects. Previous investigations have tended to focus on pomegranate juice. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of pomegranate extract (PE) on blood pressure and anthropometric measures in adults with no symptomatic disease. A total of fifty-five participants enrolled in a randomised double-blinded placebo-controlled clinical trial where they were assigned to either PE capsules or placebo capsules for 8 weeks. Blood pressure, body weight, waist circumference, waist:hip ratio (WHR) and body composition (lean body mass, body fat) were measured at baseline, week 4 and week 8. Results showed a significant decrease in diastolic blood pressure after 8 weeks (by 2·79 (sd 5·32) mmHg; P < 0·05), while the decrease in systolic blood pressure did not reach statistical significance (2·57 (sd 7·4) mmHg; P > 0·05). Body fat percentage, lean body mass, waist circumference and WHR did not significantly differ between groups at the end of the intervention. Results suggest that PE may reduce blood pressure and possibly prevent hypertension in the normotensive population. Further large trials are required to elucidate this effect.

Aim. To study the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and blood pressure (BP) on visual acuity among apparently healthy residents of Ekpoma, Esan West Local Government Area of Edo State, Nigeria. Methodology. This is a cross-sectional descriptive study among 225 subjects (ages of 18–35 years) from whom BP, body weight, and height were collected. Visual acuity was measured using the Snellen chart following standard procedures of number of letters seen at 6-metre distance. The data were then analyzed using SPSS version 17. Results. The sampled population consists of 112 male and 113 female (mean age 31.72±14.2 years). Majority (180) of the respondents had normal visual acuity. However, compared with the respondents with normal BMI (R19.61±1.5; L19.67±1.70), visual acuity of underweight (R18.53±2.30; L18.53±2.70) and obese (R15.68±4.79; L17.73±1.70) were more deviated. Similarly, compared with respondent with normal BP (120–125/80–85 mmHg; R18.00±2.53; L18.07±3.11), hypotensive (R15.5±7.35; L15.00±10.20), and hypertensive (R15.01±21.25; L15.00±11.91) respondents had deviated visual acuity. Conclusion. Abnormal body weight (underweight and obese) and BP (hypotension and hypertension) have potential negative impacts on visual acuity. Based on the observed relationship between weights, BP, and visual acuity, eye examinations can be included as regular screening exercise for abnormal BMI and BP conditions.

We tested the hypothesis that modest, overfeeding-induced weight gain would increase sympathetic neural activity in nonobese humans. Twelve healthy males (23 ± 2 years; body mass index, 23.8 ± 0.7) were overfed ∼1,000 kcal/day until a 5-kg weight gain was achieved. Muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA, microneurography), blood pressure, body composition (dual energy X-ray absorptiometry), and abdominal fat distribution (computed tomography) were measured at baseline and following 4 wk of weight stability at each individual's elevated body weight. Overfeeding increased body weight (73.5 ± 3.1 vs. 78.4 ± 3.2 kg, P < 0.001) and body fat (14.9 ± 1.2 vs. 18 ± 1.1 kg, P < 0.001) in 42 ± 8 days. Total abdominal fat increased (220 ± 22 vs. 266 ± 22 cm2, P < 0.001) with weight gain, due to increases in both subcutaneous (158 ± 15 vs. 187 ± 12 cm2, P < 0.001) and visceral fat (63 ± 8 vs. 79 ± 12 cm2, P = 0.004). As hypothesized, weight gain elicited increases in MSNA burst frequency (32 ± 2 vs. 38 ± 2 burst/min, P = 0.002) and burst incidence (52 ± 4 vs. 59 ± 3 bursts/100 heart beats, P = 0.026). Systolic, but not diastolic blood pressure increased significantly with weight gain. The change in MSNA burst frequency was correlated with the percent increase in body weight ( r = 0.59, P = 0.022), change in body fat ( r = 0.52, P = 0.043) and percent change in body fat ( r = 0.51, P = 0.045). The results of the current study indicate that modest diet-induced weight gain elicits sympathetic neural activation in nonobese males. These findings may have important implications for understanding the link between obesity and hypertension.

Introduction: Evidence has shown an increase in paediatric hypertension globally and this could give rise to increase prevalence of adult hypertension. The purpose of this paper was to determine the prevalence of hypertension among adolescents in Malaysia as well as the association between hypertension and lifestyle factors selected based on published literature. Methods: Adolescents aged 13-17 years old were selected randomly from two secondary schools to have their blood pressure measured. Their lifestyle information was obtained through completed bilingual questionnaires based on validated instruments, as well as anthropometry measurements. The relationship between hypertension and lifestyle factors was determined through statistical analysis. Results: A total of 273 students were included in the study with 120 (44%) males and 153 (56%) females. The prevalence of hypertension was 24.5% among the respondents with the highest being recorded among Malays (28.7%). Generally, hypertension was associated with an increased Body Mass Index (BMI) (AOR=4.053, 95%CI=1.677-9.795, p=0.002) and waist circumference (WC) (AOR=2.918, 95%CI=1.171-7.269, p=0.021) in all respondents. Similar associations were noted in females (BMI: AOR=7.707, 95%CI=2.043-29.072, p=0.003; WC: AOR=3.690, 95%CI=1.011-13.464, p=0.048) but not in males. Conclusion: Hypertension recorded high prevalence among Malaysian adolescents in our study. The strong association between elevated body weight, BMI and WC with hypertension may require further study to evaluate the need for screening

Objective: The main objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of metformin therapy on clinical and hormonal indices of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome. Study Design: Randomized control trial Place and Duration: Study was conducted at Obstetrics & Gynaecology department of Northwest General Hospital and Research Center, Peshawar and Mian Rashid Hussain Shaheed Memorial Hospital, Pabbi for duration of nine months from March 2020 to November 2020. Methods: Total 100 patients of polycystic ovary syndrome were presented in this study. Patients were aged between 18 to 45years. Patients detailed demographics including age, body mass index and socio-economicstatus were recorded after taking informed written consent. Patients were divided into 2-groups, group I had 50 patients and received metformin (500 mg) three times a day and group II had 50 patients and received pioglitazone (30 mg) three times a day for 3months.Clinical (body weight, blood pressure (BP), and body mass index) and indices fasting blood sugar (FBS), serum triglyceride (TG), cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein, insulin, testosterone, and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) were measured before and after therapy. Complete data was analyzed by SPSS 22.0 version. Results: Mean age of the patients in group I was 29.18 ± 2.25 years with mean BMI 26.14 ± 8.86 kg/m2 and in group II mean age was 29.8 ± 2.52 years with mean BMI 27.64 ± 7.68 kg/m2.Significantly decrease in blood pressure (systolic 105.41±8.57, diastolic 67.19±8.9), hair loss 20 (40%),oligomenorrhea 23 (46%), body weight 74.45±9.72, waist circumference and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) 2.35±0.67 and as compared to group II. Only triglycerides gave results of reduction in group II 115.39±64.11. Among both groups serum insulin, acne, menstrual disturbance and fasting blood sugar were controlled after treatment. Conclusion: We concluded in this study that use of metformin in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome resulted in to decrease clinical body weight, blood pressure (BP), body mass index and hormonal indices with reduction of serum insulin, acne, menstrual disturbance and fasting blood sugar but pioglitazone was an alternative effective and reliable method in PCOS patients. Keywords: Polycystic ovary syndrome, Insulin resistance, Metformin, Pioglitazone
