ABSTRAKHipertensi adalah penyakit kronis yang umum di seluruh dunia dan faktor risiko utama penyakit kardiovaskular. Penyebab utama penyakit ini yaitu faktor genetika, perilaku dan gaya hidup. Kesadaran yang rendah pada  penanganan hipertensi menjadi penyebab utama dalam terjadinya komplikasi stroke. Desa Karanganyar Barat Kecamatan Kalianget Kabupaten Sumenep Merupakan salah satu desa yang terletak di daerah pesisir dan juga banyak terdapat tambak garam. Data posyandu lansia Desa Karanganyar Barat menyebutkan bahwa angka kejadian hipertensi pada lansia sangat tinggi bahkan kunjungan posyandu terbanyak adalah penderita hipertensi mencapai 70%. Para lansia ini juga kurang memahami dampak jangka Panjang hipertensi seperti stroke. Tujuan dalam pengabdian untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan lansia dalam mencegah komplikasi hipertensi. Mitra dalam pengabdian ini adalah kader posyandu lansia di Desa Karanganyar Barat Kecamatan Kalianget Kabupaten Sumenep, Peserta dalam kegiatan ini adalah lansia penderita hipertensi sebanyak 15 orang. Metode dalam kegiatan ini yaitu penyuluhan, ceramah dan diskusi. Keberhasilan acara ini tampak dari semangat dan antusiasnya lansia. Lansia juga berperan sangat aktif dalam menjawab evaluasi tentang materi yang telah disampaikan. Pelaksanaan kegiatan pengabdian terlaksana dengan lancar, Sebagian besar 93% (14 lansia) meningkat pengetahuannya dengan kategori pengetahuan baik sedangkan 6,7% (1 orang) dengan kategori pengetahuan cukup dalam mencegah komplikasi hipertensi serta berkomitmen dalam melaksanakan semua anjuran dari tim pengabdian untuk mencegah komplikasi stroke. Kata kunci: lansia; hipertensi; komplikasi hipertensi. ABSTRACTHypertension is a common chronic disease worldwide and a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The main causes of this disease are genetics, behavior, and lifestyle. Low awareness of hypertension management is the main cause of stroke complications. Karanganyar Barat Village, Kalianget District, Sumenep Regency is one of the villages located in a coastal area and there are also many salt ponds. Data from the Posyandu for elderly in Karanganyar Barat Village states that the incidence of hypertension in the elderly is very high, even if the most posyandu visits are hypertension sufferers reaching 70%. The elderly also do not understand the long-term impact of hypertension such as stroke. This research aims to increase the knowledge of the elderly in preventing complications of hypertension. Partners in this service are elderly posyandu cadres in Karanganyar Barat Village, Kalianget District, Sumenep Regency. Participants in this activity were 15 elderly people with hypertension. The methods in this activity are counseling, lectures, and discussions. The success of this event was evident from the enthusiasm and enthusiasm of the elderly. The elderly also play a very active role in answering evaluations of the material that has been delivered. The implementation of service activities was carried out smoothly, most of the 93% (14 elderly) increased their knowledge with the good knowledge category, while 6.7% (1 person) with the category of knowledge was sufficient in preventing complications of hypertension and committed to carrying out all recommendations from the service team to prevent complications stroke. Keywords: elderly; hypertension; complications of hypertension.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death globally, although the mortality rate has declined with improved technology and risk factor control. The incidence rate of stroke, one of the CVDs, is increasing in young adults, whereas it is decreasing in the elderly. The risk factors for CVD may differ between young adults and the elderly. Previous studies have suggested that cadmium was a potential CVD risk factor in the overall and middle-aged to elderly populations. We assessed the associations between cadmium and CVD events in the Korean population aged 20–59 years using the 2008–2013 and 2016 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES), a population-based cross-sectional study. Among 10,626 participants aged 20–59 years, those with high blood cadmium (BCd) level (>1.874 µg/L, 90th percentile) were higher associated with stroke and hypertension (stroke: odds ratio (OR), 2.39; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.03–5.56; hypertension: OR, 1.46; 95% CI, 1.20–1.76). The strongest association between high blood cadmium concentrations and hypertension was among current smokers. Ischemic heart disease (IHD) was not associated with high blood cadmium level. These findings suggest that high blood cadmium levels may be associated with prevalent stroke and hypertension in the Korean population under 60 years of age.

Anthropogenic accumulation of metals such as manganese is a well-established health risk factor for vertebrates. By contrast, the long-term impact of these contaminants on invertebrates is mostly unknown. Here, we demonstrate that manganese ingestion alters brain biogenic amine levels in honeybees and fruit flies. Furthermore, we show that manganese exposure negatively affects foraging behaviour in the honeybee, an economically important pollinator. Our findings indicate that in addition to its direct impact on human health, the common industrial contaminant manganese might also have indirect environmental and economical impacts via the modulation of neuronal and behavioural functions in economically important insects.

Obesity is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular disease, osteoarthritis, numerous cancers and increased mortality. It is estimated that at least 2.8 million adults die each year due to obesity-related cardiovascular disease. Increasing in parallel with the global obesity problem is metabolic syndrome, which has also reached epidemic levels. Numerous studies have demonstrated that bariatric surgery is associated with significant and durable weight loss with associated improvement of obesity-related comorbidities. This review aims to summarize the effects of bariatric surgery on the components of metabolic syndrome (hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia and hypertension), weight loss, perioperative morbidity and mortality, and the long-term impact on cardiovascular risk and mortality.

Abstract Introduction Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity in adults. In children, cardiovascular morbidity associated with OSA is usually thought to resolve after tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy (T&A). There is no information regarding the long term effects of T&A on future cardiovascular morbidity in children diagnosed with OSA. In this study, we performed data mining to assess long-term effects of adenotonsillectomy on risk factors for cardiovascular disease, in young adults. Methods This study retrospectively investigated the population defined by a previous study in our institution [Tarasiuk etal Pediatrics 2004] and compared a group of children diagnosed with OSA and underwent T&A(n=130) to a group of children diagnosed with OSA that did not undergo T&A(n=90) to a control group without OSA (n=505). Demographic data, vital signs, anthropometric measurements, medical diagnoses (9th revision (ICD-9) codes) and medication purchases were captured from the HMO computerized database, between the years 1998-2018. When appropriate, univariate comparisons were made using χ 2-test or Fisher’s exact test for categorical variables, and one-way ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis tests for quantitative variables. We performed multivariate logistic regression to model the factors associated with the diagnosis of obesity. IBM SPSS software, version 25.0, was used for statistical analysis. Results We have found that 20 years after their OSA diagnosis, patients (25.1 years, 52.2% males, 26.2 BMI) who were diagnosed with OSA at age 5 and did not undergo T&A consumed more medications associated with cardiovascular morbidity (anti-hypertensive, statins, aspirin) than those who underwent T&A(P<0.001). Surprisingly, multivariate logistic regression revealed that only females diagnosed with OSA (with or without T&A) were diagnosed as obese in comparison to those that did not have OSA (P<0.001). Conclusion Children who were diagnosed with OSA and were not operated will consume more medications (anti-hypertensive, anti-hyperlipidemia, aspirin) as young adults, a surrogate marker for early cardiovascular disease. OSA in girls seems to serve as a risk factor for obesity in their third decade of life. It is important to diagnose and treat OSA in children, and to monitor and prevent obesity, mainly in females.
