Abstract: Elderly, Hypertension, Body Mass Index, Waist Circumference and Hip. The problem of hypertension is one of the most common diseases in elderly people. Risk factors that can cause hypertension are obesity and central obesity. That is caused by the lack of appropriateness of eating intake with activity in the elderly are declining. So there is a possibility of normal BMI and RLPP will reduce the risk of hypertension. This study aims to determine IMT and RLPP measurements as a predictor of hypertension. This type of research is observational with cross-sectional design and the number of research subjects is 71 elderly who suffer from hypertension and not hypertension. Sampling using total sampling method. Data analysis was done by univariate and bivariate analysis using chi-square test and logistic regression test. The result of statistic test showed that there was a correlation between body mass index with hypertension 0,002 (p <0,002) and BMI was risk factor proved by RR 2,228 (CI 1,3333,723). There is a relationship between RLPP with hypertension 0.000 (p <0.000) and RLPP is hypertension risk factor with RR value 4,340 (CI 1,896-9,933). The result of BMT logistic regression test is not a predictor of hypertension, but RLPP is a predictor to determine hypertension with the formula Y = -3,614 + 2,285X1. It is advisable for the elderly to maintain normal RLPP in order to reduce the risk of hypertension.

Indonesia is predicted to experience a demographic bonus period, namely the number of productive age population (aged 15-64 years) of 64%. The prevalence of obesity at productive age from 2007 to 2018 has increased from 8.6% to 13.6%. Obesity will result in high percent body fat andvisellar fat, and will result in various non-communicable diseases such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, stroke, cancer and other non-metabolic complications such as arthritis. The onset of this disease in obese people is preceded by a group of symptoms such as hypertension, insulinresistance, dyslipidemia. Objectives: To determine the relationship between Body Mass Index and Percent body fat and to determine the relationship between Body Mass Index and Viscelar Fat. Methods: This study used a cross sectional design with purposive sampling method, namely thosevisiting the Aisyiyah Regional Leadership Stand in Semarang City at the Expo of Community Organizations in Semarang City. The sample is 115 people. Results: This study found that 35 (30.4%) men and 80 (69.6%) women, Average Age: (45.14 ± 14.55) years, Body Mass Index (25.39 ± 3.96), mean percent body fat (32.63 ± 6.68) mean viscelar fat (7.93 ± 5.13). There is a relationship between BMI and percent body fat (p = 0.000) and there is a relationship between BMI and Viscelar fat (p = 0.000).Keywords: Body Mass Index, percent body fat, Viscelar fat

Abstract Introduction: Light/dark cycles are the main synchronizing signal (zeitgeber) that entrain human’s internal clock to the 24h-days. Some aspects of urban environments, including irregular light exposure and weak zeitgebers, influence the circadian organization and thereby may have an impact on metabolism. Comparing communities at different levels of urbanization and with different histories of access to electricity might provide evidence to support associations previously found between disrupted patterns of light exposure and increased populational rates of overweight and obesity. The present study aimed to investigate whether living at a higher level of urbanization would be associated with higher body mass index (BMI). It was hypothesized that BMI is higher in urbanized communities, since their inhabitants have weaker zeitgebers, often associated with disrupted circadian rhythms. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in Quilombolas communities, located in the south of Brazil. Subjects were categorized into 5 groups based on their communities’ stage of urbanization and history of access to electricity: from rural with no access to electricity to highly urbanized communities that have access to the grid. We used data from 134 participants aged 16 - 92 years old (63% women), who had 7 days of light exposure recordings collected using wrist-worn actimeters. We also collected anthropometric data to calculate BMI, which was then categorized as follows: ≥18.5 kg/m² to &lt;25 kg/m² = normal weight; ≥25 kg/m² to &lt; 30 kg-m² = overweight; ≥ 30 kg/m² = obesity. We used Shapiro-Wilk to test for normality, Kruskal-Wallis followed by Dunn to compare BMI between groups and Spearman to assess whether there was an association between patterns of light exposure and BMI. Results: Kruskal-Wallis/Dunn test showed a significant difference in BMI between the urban group and the rural ones (KW: X² = 11.987, p &lt; 0.001). Lower average light exposure between 7 am and 5 pm was significantly correlated with higher BMI (Spearman, r = - 0.296, p &lt; 0.001). Also, higher average light exposure at night (from 1 am to 6 am) was significantly correlated with higher BMI (Spearman, r = 0.256, p = 0.002). Conclusions: Our results support the hypothesis that low amplitudes of light exposure may be a risk factor contributing to the high prevalence of obesity worldwide. Studies have previously shown associations between BMI and social jetlag, suggesting the correlations found in our study may be related to higher levels of circadian misalignment, more often present where zeitgeber strength is lower, as in urban environments. Future research is needed to address causal relationships between light exposure and excessive body mass in humans. Provided light exposure is a risk factor for obesity, these results point to potential new targets for intervention and prevention strategies.

Body Mass Index (BMI) is a good indicator for measurements of Bone Mineral Density (BMD) which measures the density of minerals present in the bones using a special scan. This study was conducted to assess the association between BMI and status of BMD among 101 individuals who underwent Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) scan. 39 subjects had normal and 62 had low bone mineral density. BMD was low in 82.4% of people with normal BMI, 78.1% among overweight, and 44.2% among obese. There was a statistically significant association between these two variables (). Low BMD was recorded in 59.1% of females and 76.9% of males. Association between advancing age and lower BMI is an important risk factor in the occurrence of low BMD.

In comparison with western populations, body mass index (BMI) of the Japanese population is typically lower. In this study, the relationship between BMI and other metabolic risk factors was examined in 1,130 male manufacturing workers surveyed from 2000 to 2003. The association between the BMI and the relative risk of hypertension was evaluated in a cross-sectional design using logistic regression analysis. The mean BMI in the subjects was 23.6 ( SD = 3.2). Of the total number of subjects, 26.6% and 3.3% were classified as pre-obese and obese, respectively. Multivariate analysis indicated that BMI of 23 or greater was significantly associated with an increased risk of hypertension and/or hyperlipidemia. Health education of weight control of borderline obesity of workers is important for the primary prevention of hypertension and hyperlipidemia in Japan.

Abstract: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (LLA) is the most common type of leukemia in children. Until now chemotherapy is still used as the main treatment. One aspect that affects the success of chemotherapy is body mass index (BMI). BMI values in children with LLA tend to be unstable, low, or high. This is triggered by natural immune cell disorders which have an impact on increasing cytokines and side effects of treatment. This study was aimed to determine the relationship between BMI and the achievement of remission in children with ALL. This was a retrospective and analytical study with a cross-sectional design. Samples were ALL patients who had been given induction phase of chemotherapy during 2015-2018 based on medical records at Estella Children's Cancer Center, Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado. The results obtained 52 samples which were evaluated and analyzed to determine the relationship of BMI and the achievement of remission. The Spearman correlation test showed a significant value of p=0.799 (p>0.05). In conclusion, there was no relationship between BMI and the achievement of remission in children with ALLKeywords: body mass index, remission, acute lymphoblastic leukemia Abstrak: Leukemia limfoblastik akut (LLA) merupakan jenis leukemia yang paling sering terjadi pada anak-anak. Sampai saat ini kemoterapi masih dipakai sebagai pengobatan utama. Salah satu aspek yang memengaruhi keberhasilan kemoterapi yaitu indeks massa tubuh (IMT). Nilai IMT pada anak penderita LLA cenderung tidak stabil, bisa kurang tetapi juga lebih. Hal ini dipicu oleh gangguan sel imun alami yang dialami penderita kemudian berdampak terhadap peningkatan sitokin serta efek samping pengobatan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara IMT dan tercapainya remisi pada anak penderita LLA. Jenis penelitian ialah analitik retrospektif dengan desain potong lintang. Sampel penelitian ialah pasien LLA yang telah diberikan kemoterapi fase induksi periode 2015-2018, didapatkan dari rekam medik di Pusat Kanker Anak Estella RSUP Prof Dr. R. D. Kandou Manado. Hasil penelitin mendapatkan 52 sampel, kemudian dievaluasi dan dianalisis untuk melihat hubungan IMT dan tercapainya remisi pada sampel. Hasil uji korelasi Spearman menunjukkan nilai p=0,799 (p>0,05). Simpulan penelitian ini ialah tidak terdapat hubungan antara IMT dan tercapainya remisi pada anak penderita LLA.Kata kunci: Indeks massa tubuh, remisi, leukemia limfoblastik akut
