<p>The balance of a person's body is affected by the Body Mass Index. Body Mass Index is the easiest way to estimate obesity as well as to be highly correlated with body fat mass, but it is also important to identify obese patients who have a risk of medical complications. Purpose of this study was to know correlation body mass index with the static balance of transtibial prosthesis user. The study was a quantitative research with a cross-sectional design. Location research in BBRSBD Prof. Dr. Soeharso Surakarta with sample were patients with post-amputation of transtibial as many as 15 people. Analysis of data was used correlation Pearson test. There was a correlation between body mass index with the static balance of transtibial prosthesis user, the coefficient correlation of -0.646 with significant and levels of correlation moderate. The value of normal body mass index has the highest static balance than lean body mass index and fat. Mass Index of the skinny body has a moderate static balance. Obese body mass index has the lowest static balance of body mass index thin and normal. </p>

This is a descriptive, retrospective study with cross-sectional quantitative approach, which aimed to relate the body mass index with events in the postoperative period of the myocardial revascularization surgery with use of extracorporeal circulation. The data collection period was between April and June/2012. Patients were divided according to the body mass index and classified as without excess of weight, overweight or obese. The data analysis was based on the descriptive statistics. The patients without excess of weight had more complications, especially those related to the lungs. Among overweight and obese individuals, the cardiovascular complications stood out. The obese subjects had the worse prognostic. Obesity and overweight did not have statistically significant association with a higher frequency of postoperative complications, in spite of the occurrence of cardiovascular complications in this group. The patients without excess of weight had higher risks of developing neurological events.

Background: Childhood obesity is a serious public health concern in both developed and developing countries. The children share food habits, physical activity habits etc. with their parents either in term of genetic or environmental influences, which affects the body mass index of the children. The objective of this study was to study the association of parental overweight/obesity with overweight/obesity in the children.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in a government aided school in Nagpur during January 2016 to April 2016. Data was collected by a self-administered questionnaire which had information regarding the socio demographic characteristics like age, sex, socio economic status etc. Anthropometric measurements like height and weight of the children and their parents were measured. Necessary permissions were sought before the start of the study.Results: We found a significant association (p<0.01) between the obesity and overweight status of father and mother with the body mass index of their children with an odds ratio of 2.49 (1.69 to 3.66) and 2.90 (1.98 to 4.25) respectively. If both the parents are overweight/obese then the odds of their being overweight/obese is 3.00 (1.93-4.68). If either of parents is overweight/ obese, then the odds ratio is 3.10 (2.12-4.54).Conclusions: Stronger and significant associations were found between the overweight and obesity of the parents and their children. A significantly positive correlation was found between the body mass index of parents and body mass index of their children.

ABSTRACT Introduction Overweight and obesity are growing healthrelated problems worldwide, and it is currently the most prevalent nutritional disorder among children and adolescents. The objective of this study was to assess the association between overweight and dental caries among 12- to 15-year-old schoolchildren in Mangaluru district, Karnataka, India. Materials and methods Data were obtained from 2000 schoolgoing children aged 12 to 15 years. The children were categorized as overweight and normal-weight group by assessing the body mass index (BMI). Body mass index was categorized using the classification system given by the International Obesity Task Force (IOTF) and obtained in units of kg/m2. The dental caries was assessed by detection and was performed according to decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT) index. Results Of the 2000 children examined, the mean BMI recorded was 26.87 ± 2.26 for the overweight children and 20.82 ± 1.48 for the normal-weight children. Even though the DMFT (3.90 ± 2.95) in the overweight children was slightly higher than the control group (3.36 ± 2.73), it was not statistically significant. Conclusion Within the confines of the present study, it can be concluded that there is no significant association between overweight and dental caries among the schoolchildren of Mangaluru district in Karnataka. Longitudinal studies are necessary to substantiate the possible relationships between dental caries and overweight in children. Knowledge of these relationships could lead to preventive health measures designed to reduce the prevalence of both obesity and dental caries.

Obesity is currently the most common metabolic disease, causing numerous health problems and, if untreated, leading to premature mortality. Obesity is a significant issue among people of working age since their ability to work depends directly on their health condition and psychomotor fitness. Demographic and socioeconomic factors have a significant impact on the body weight of people of working age. The aim of this study is to identify relationships between the body mass index and selected demographic and socioeconomic variables in working-age residents of the city of Wrocław, Poland. The study involved 4315 respondents (2206 women and 2109 men) aged 18–64 years from Wrocław. The sample selection was random and purposive, using multilevel stratification. The applied research tool was the authors’ own cross-sectional diagnostic questionnaire of socioeconomic status. Based on the collected data, the respondents’ body weight was categorized according to WHO criteria. The majority of respondents (60%) had a normal body weight, while 40% were categorized as overweight or obese. The difference was statistically significant (p < 0.001). Sex, age, occupational status, marital status, number of people in the household, having a steady source of income, disposable (net) income, and savings were significantly correlated (p < 0.001) with respondents’ body mass index. Public health programs aimed at promoting healthy lifestyle behaviors should be addressed primarily to groups at the highest risk of overweight and obesity.

Dysmenorrhea is pain in the pelvic area at the start of menstruation caused by increased levels of prostaglandin in the endometrium. Dysmenorrhea often causes the absence of a person in the learning process or other activities. Many factors can cause dysmenorrhea, one of them is body fat mass. The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between body mass index and the incidence of dysmenorrhea. This type of research is analytical, using a cross-sectional approach. This research was conducted at the Faculty of Medicine, Baiturrahmah University and took place from October to December 2018. The population in this study were students of the 2015 Faculty of Medicine, Baiturrahmah University with 54 people. Univariate analysis ispresented in the form of tables and bivariate analysis is presented in table form using the Spearman test rho. The result show that Of the 54 respondents, 32 people (59.3%) have normal body mass index is the ones who most experienced dysmenorrhea. and students who have most mild level of dysmenorrhea were 28 people and there is a relation between body mass index and the incidence of dysmenorrhea in students of 2015 Faculty of Medicine, Baiturrahmah University. p = 0.009 and weak correlation coefficient = 0.353.

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) works in synergy with the Endocrine system that affects the body-mass and height and in turn the body mass index (BMI). The ANS activities are often assessed with one index that is heart rate variability (HRV). Reduced HRV has been reported in underweight (low BMI) and overweight (high BMI) individuals, but there is scarce information available on the relationship between normal BMI and HRV. Further, as per WHO expert consultation report, the Asian population has higher percentage of body fat than their European counterparts, therefore Asian people may have greater risk factors for type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease even below the existing upper edge of normal BMI. Thus it was recommended by WHO to consider the intermediate cutoff points within the normal BMI range as 18.5 Kg/m2, 20 Kg/m2, 23 Kg/m2, and 25 Kg/m2 for the Asian population. Therefore, the present study was aimed to investigate ANS activity among intermediate cutoff points of normal BMI using HRV. Seventy young individuals participated in the non-invasive and benign study. Subjects were divided into three groups based on their BMI as per the recommendation of the WHO report; NB1 (18.5<BMI≤20), NB2 (20<BMI<23) and NB3 (23<BMI<25). For all the subjects, 10 min of electrocardiogram was recorded and short term HRV analysis was carried out. Student t test was carried out to find the significance of study parameters in BMI groups. The BMI was correlated with HRV measures using Spearman’s correlation method. Statistically significant negative correlation was found between BMI and various HRV parameters. The sympathovagal balance was comparable in NB1 and NB2 group whereas it shifted towards sympathetic dominance in NB3 group. Higher sympathetic activity for BMI greater than 23 in Indian youth may lead to predictability of risks associated with overweight and obesity

Overweight and obesity is one of the health problems in the world. This condition is associated with various health problems such as cardiovascular disease, stroke, osteoarthritis, chronic back pain, gallbladder disease, and cancer. Consuming adequate fluids can help you lose weight. This study aimed to determine the relationship between body fluid intake and body mass index (BMI) in Medical Faculty Universitas Sumatera Utara students. A cross-sectional study was conducted on USU Medical Faculty students from October 2020 to January 2021 with a sample of 99 people. Researchers obtained primary data obtained through reporting daily fluid intake for seven consecutive days and anthropometric measurements. Furthermore, the researchers conducted the Spearman test to determine the relationship between the two variables. Based on the characteristics of the sample, the researchers obtained 51 samples that were female (51.5%), and 48 were male (48.5%) with an average age of 20.05±1.08 years. The average fluid intake consumed was around 2070.07±654.93 mL per day, whereas 48 people in the study sample consumed less fluid below 2000 mL/day (45.5%). The classification of nutritional status of the sample based on BMI showed that 44 people had normal nutritional status (44.4%), 48 people were overweight (48.5%), and seven people were obese (7.1%). The test results showed a significant relationship between daily fluid intake and BMI (p-value = 0.007).
