Abstract Background This study aims to calculate the intake of foods rich in CYP2E1 enzymes and glutathione to increase toluene detoxification. Methods The research design used was a cross sectional method. The research location is printing industry in Surabaya, East Java. The number of respondents was 30 workers of the printing industry. The calculated variables included body weight, work duration (years), work frequency per week (days), average workday (hours) of the respondent and benzene concentration. After all variables were obtained, respiration rate and carcinogenic detox benzene food intake per respondent were determined. Results All respondents who were at work showed benzene concentrations below the threshold value (TLV). Foods containing CYP2E1 enzyme included beef liver, salmon and fish oil while food with glutathione included grapes, avocados and asparagus. Conclusion Adequacy levels of CYP2E1 enzymes and glutathione are different and varied. The effective dose required by each respondent depends on body weight, length of work, and toluene concentration at work. In sum, the greater the toluene concentration, the greater the dietary needs which are rich in enzymes and CYP2E1 glutathione. Each respondent can choose benzene detox food depending on their needs and appetite.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the relationship between BMI and tooth decay in a population of Iranian children. In this cross-sectional descriptive/analytical study, 1482 children were selected from kindergartens and preschool centers in Kerman, Iran. The children underwent examination of deciduous teeth (using the dmft index) after determination of height and weight for calculation of BMI. The relationship between BMI (after adjustment for age) and dmft was determined using Poisson’s regression model. The mean of dmft in children with normal BMI was 1.5-fold that in subjects with extra body weight. Age had a significant effect on dmft. In addition, dmft was higher in boys compared to girls. The results of the present study showed that caries rate in the deciduous teeth of 3–6-year-old children decreases with an increase in body weight.

In the shoes industry, benzene constitute as one of the source of chemical hazard especially used in the gluing section. This compound is metabolized by the liver, forming free radicals in the body which can ultimately reduce the concentration of glutathione and increased malondialdehyde causing DNA degeneration. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between benzene concentration, excess cancer risk (ECR), malondialdehyde, glutathione, and DNA degeneration among workers in shoes industry in Osowilangun, Surabaya. This is an observational study with a cross-sectional design. The number of research samples was 25 respondents. The average concentration of benzene in workers was above the threshold (10.31 ppm). There were 15 (60%) respondents with ECR >0.0001 who experienced DNA degeneration. There was no relationship between benzene concentration, malondialdehyde, glutathione, and DNA degeneration. However, there was a relationship between benzene ECR, malondialdehyde, glutathione, and DNA degeneration in the shoe industry workers in Osowilangun.

BACKGROUND: Toluene was an organic compound used in chemical and drug industries, the main source of toluene emissions from fires. To reduce and even eliminate toluene toxins in chemical component could be using detoxification by foods. AIM: This research aimed to calculate the intake of foods rich in CYP2E1 enzyme and glycine to improve toluene detoxification.METHODS: The type of research was a descriptive study. The subject of the study was 51 workers in Romokalisari Surabaya who had worked for more than or equal to 10 years. Variables were body weight, duration of working (years), working time per week (days), and working time per day (hours). The breathing rate, intake of non-carcinogen per respondent, can be calculated by variables before. Then, the effective dose of food rich in CYP2E1 enzyme and glycine will be obtained.RESULTS: Majority respondents had toluene concentrations below the threshold limit value (TLV). The highest effective dose of foods rich in CYP2E1 enzymes such as beef liver, beef brain, and salmon was 239.61 g, 745.45 g, and 203.3 g. Also, foods rich in glycines such as seaweed, tuna, and spinach were 432.98 mg, 934.41 mg, and 2070.71 mg. CONCLUSION: The level of adequacy of the CYP2E1 enzyme and glycine of each person was different and varied. The effective dose required by each respondent depending on weight, length of work, and concentration of benzene in the workplace. The greater the toluene concentration, the greater the needs for foods rich in CYP2E1 enzymes and glycine. Body weight can also be another factor in differences in individual intake. Weight, length of working, and toluene concentration can affect the intake of non-carcinogen in each which can affect the effective dose of foods.

Aim. To assess the dynamics of the prevalence of excessive body weight (pre-obesity) and obesity, to identify gender differences among the workers of an industrial enterprise in the period 1994-2010. Methods. Population-based cross-sectional complex preventive studies of 2566 industrial workers (1579 males and 987 females) aged 18-64 years in order to identify the non-infectious diseases were conducted in 1994, 1999 and 2000. Pre-obesity, obesity and other risk factors were assessed according to the criteria of the program on Countrywide Integrated Noncommunicable Diseases Intervention of the World Health Organization and according to Russian recommendations regarding the metabolic syndrome. Results. The prevalence of excessive body weight (35.3%) and obesity (12.2%) in 2010 for males was significantly higher than in 1999 (31.1 and 7.7% respectively), the prevalence of obesity alone among them was significantly higher in 2010 than in 1994. In females the prevalence of obesity in 2010 was significantly higher than in 1999 (26.7 and 19.9% respectively) with no significant differences in the frequency pre-obesity (34.0 and 39.6% respectively). The prevalence of pre-obesity and obesity among females in 2010 did not differ significantly from such in 1994. Conclusion. Revealed was an increase in the prevalence of pre-obesity and obesity in males and females in the period from 1999 to 2010; mean body mass indices and frequency of pre-obesity and obesity in females were significantly higher than in males at all periods of the prospective study.

The paper presents solutions to the direct and inverse problems on longitudinal vibrations of a rod with a variable cross-sectional area. The law of variation of the cross-sectional area is modeled as an exponential function of a polynomial of degree n . The method for reconstructing this function is based on representing the fundamental system of solutions of the direct problem in the form of a Maclaurin series in the variables x and λ. Examples of solutions for various section functions and various boundary conditions are given. It is shown that to recover n unknown coefficients of a polynomial, n eigenvalues are required, and the solution is dual. An unambiguous solution was obtained only for the case of elastic fixation at one of the rod’s ends. The numerical estimation of the method error was made using input data noise. It is shown that the error in finding the variable crosssectional area is less than 1% with the error in the eigenvalues of longitudinal vibrations not exceeding 0.0001.
