Parties who become partners in community service activities are the village community of Sumbersono, Mojokerto Regency. Based on the 2017 health profile in Mojokerto District, there are 117,309 elderly people. The Mojokerto district government has a health program for the elderly, namely the Elderly Health Service (Usila). Usila is a health service according to the standards in the elderly guidelines in a health facility in one work area and time period. Examination of the elderly programmed by the Mojokerto district government has been carried out at the Puskesmas that serves the elderly, but the elderly need more routine checks to monitor cholesterol levels. Another thing that is a problem is the relatively expensive cholesterol examination so that there are limitations in the self-examination by the community. Cholesterol examination methods for community service were using POCT and interviews related to health complaints from community service participants. There were 44 community service participants, not only from the elderly but from middle age. Of the 27 elderly, 10 elderly have normal cholesterol levels while 17 elderly have high and very high of cholesterol levels. Of the 17 middle age participants, 7 of them had normal cholesterol levels and 10 people had high and very high cholesterol levels. The interviews showed that almost all participants had health complaints that resembled complaints due to high cholesterol level. It is recommended to perform other health examination and not be limited to the elderly.

Injectable DMPA contraception can cause changes in lipoprotein metabolism. Changes in fat metabolism occur because of the hormonal influence of progesterone, causing disruption of the balance of lipid profiles in the body. The change in serum lipid profile (trgliseride, total cholesterol, HDL and LDL) in long-term use of DMPA is a risk factor for atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this study was to look at the description of the lipid profile at 3 months injection acceptors. The design of the study was descriptive. The population in this study was 76, the number of samples that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria in this study was 30. Examination of the lipid profile was carried out with an enzymatic colorimetric (cholesterol oxidase method / CHOD PAP). The results of lipid profile examination showed that 13.33% had high cholesterol levels, 3.33% had high triglyceride levels, 13.33% had high HDL levels, 20% had high LDL levels and 3.33% have very high LDL levels. The conclusion of this study was long term use of DMPA injection contraception could cause changes in the lipid profile, so it is recommended for acceptors who want to use contraception in the long term to use MKJP as an option so as not to affect the fat profile in the body.

Background:Elderly health status,particularly about elderly welfare,isregulatedbyLaw Number13launchedin1998.Thenatureoftheagingprocesschallengesthispopulation with a wide range of health problems, emerging the need for health prevention and promotion program. Based on the Regulation Number 43 on 2004, government have launched Intergrated Community Service Delivery (Posbindu) for elderly as one of Implementation of Elderly Welfare Improvement Efforts, and this study to describes a case example of a treatment outcome and satisfaction assessment program at the Posbindu that provide comprehensive health service. Objectives: This study aim to identify the satisfaction of elderly on the implementation of Posbindu. Methods: Design of this descriptive survey study are carried out atone time point or overshort period.Purposivesamplingmethod to use is total population sampling because the number of elderly relatively small. In this study, the elderly population in Posbindu registered and recorded in 2019 was 81 people and therefore the samples were received based on the required minimum formula of 23 people. Service quality intrument used to measure the satisfaction of the health service include reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy, and physical evidence (tangible) assessed, as well as the level of experience of the elderly in health service at the Posbindu. The Likert scale was used to measure opinions and perceptions ranging from 1 to 5. The Wilcoxon Sign Rank Test was used for data analysis, which involves a test on two inter-correlated samples (paired samples) from populations with the same average. Results: The data analysis results indicated there was a very significant correlation on: 1) the ability of the clinic officers to be fastresponsive in solving the complaints; 2) the Posbindu officers Spaid special attention to the elderly while providing health service; and 3) the rooms of elderly health service were clean, tidy and comfortable. These three indicators should be improved in order to guarantee satisfaction of health service to the elderly. Conclusions: There were other parameters which needs to be fixed for the officers to be more fast-responsive in handling the complaints, pay more special attention and improve the cleanliness, tidiness, and comfort of the Intergrated Community Service Delivery (Posbindu) rooms.

Hypertension is a degenerative disease that is common in elderly. This can be a risk factor for stroke, heart failure, and coronary disease. One of the factors of hypertension is high cholesterol levels, lack of sports activities, and poor food consumption habits. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of the Walking, Passion fruit and Mineral Water (JAKI-MAAP) intervention on blood pressure and cholesterol levels in the elderly with hypertension and high cholesterol. This study conducted a quasi-experimental design. This study analyzed the effect of JAKI-MAAP treatment on cholesterol levels and blood pressure levels before and after treatment. By using purposive sampling technique, the number of respondents was 15 respondents in the treatment group and 15 respondents in the control group. The results showed that there was an effect of JAKI-MAAP on the average level of cholesterol reduction in the intervention group of 32 mg/dl (p = 0.000) and the control group 10.13 mg/dl (p = 0.003). There was an effect of JAKI-MAAP on the decrease in systolic and diastolic blood pressure in the intervention group (p = 0.000) whereas in the control group showed no significant changes (p > 0.05). In conclusion, the JAKI-MAAP intervention could effectively reduce cholesterol levels and blood pressure levels of the elderly who suffered from high cholesterol and mild hypertension.

Macro- and microvascular complications of type 2 diabetes (T2D), obesity, and dyslipidemia share common metabolic pathways. Here, using a total of 1,300 metabolites from 996 Qatari adults (57% with T2D) and 1,159 metabolites from an independent cohort of 2,618 individuals from the Qatar BioBank (11% with T2D), we identified 373 metabolites associated with T2D, obesity, retinopathy, dyslipidemia and lipoprotein levels, 161 of which were novel. Novel metabolites included phospholipids, sphingolipids, lysolipids, fatty acids, dipeptides, and metabolites of the urea cycle and xanthine, steroid and glutathione metabolism. The identified metabolites enrich pathways of oxidative stress, lipotoxicity, glucotoxicity and proteolysis. Second, we identified 15 patterns we defined as “metabo-clinical signatures.” These are clusters of T2D patients that group together based on metabolite levels and reveal the same clustering in two or more clinical variables (obesity, LDL, HDL, triglycerides, retinopathy). These signatures revealed metabolic pathways associated with different clinical patterns and identified patients with extreme (very high/low) clinical variables associated with extreme metabolite levels in specific pathways. Among our novel findings are the role of N-acetylmethionine in retinopathy in conjunction with dyslipidemia and the possible roles of N-acetylvaline and pyroglutamine in association with high cholesterol levels and kidney function.

In 1995, Andersonet al.published a meta-analysis, derived from most of the clinical studies on soya proteins given to individuals with varying levels of cholesterolaemia that had been reported up to that time. The meta-analysis clearly indicated that cholesterolaemias were generally reduced by diets with soya given as a partial or total substitution of animal proteins, with final mean total and LDL-cholesterol reductions of 23·2 mg/dl and 21·7 mg/dl, respectively. These findings were recently strongly criticised, based on the evaluation of later studies, frequently involving individuals with normal or moderately elevated cholesterolaemias. In the present paper, these more recent studies were re-evaluated using a ‘nomogram’ prepared on the basis of the quartiles of initial cholesterol concentrations in the Anderson meta-analysis and their corresponding CI for net cholesterol change. The five studies belonging to the first quartile and thirteen out of the fourteen belonging to the second quartile gave results perfectly in line with the nomogram. Out of the fourteen studies belonging to the third quartile, ten agreed with the nomogram and two gave lower cholesterol reductions, whereas two gave higher reductions. Unfortunately, none of the recent studies belonged to the fourth quartile as treatment with statins or other lipid-lowering drugs is now mandatory in the presence of very high cholesterol levels. The re-evaluation thus shows that the thirty-three studies published in the past 10 years are in agreement with the Anderson meta-analysis and confirm its validity.

This study examines the hypothesis that children of parents who have very high and very low levels of cholesterol and triglyceride are more likely than other children to have cholesterol and triglyceride levels at the same ends of the distribution as their parents. For each lipid studied (cholesterol and triglyceride), 1,944 households were separated into three categories: "low," "intermediate," and "high," based on parental fasting plasma levels and using the fifth (low) and 95th (high) percentiles of the parental distributions. The children were first categorized according to the classification of their parents and then further classified on the basis of their own levels, again using the fifth and 95th percentiles as cutoff points. The agreement between parental and child classifications was then measured. Children from high-cholesterol-level households were 2.7 times more likely than children from the total pediatric population to have cholesterol levels above 205 mg/dl, the pediatric 95th percentile, (P &lt; .01). Children from high-triglyceride-level households were 2.1 times more likely than children from the general pediatric population to have elevated triglyceride levels (P &lt; .01). By the simple expedient of focusing on parental cholesterol and triglyceride levels, which are commonly quantitated in adults, a pediatric sample was identified that contained significant numbers of hypercholesterolemic and hypertriglyceridemic children.

Japan is a super-aged society. Malnutrition, sarcopenia, and flail in the elderly are problems.It has also reported that abnormal olfaction and taste (function decline) occur as an early symptom of Alzheimer’s dementia. Taste and smell have a close relationship with appetite.It is need to study the provision of meals that enhance and the combination of foods from the middle age to the elderly. Because Alzheimer’s dementia gradually progresses from the middle-ages, and symptoms spear after becoming an older adult. For 16 years, we have conducted research on taste and olfaction in Yakumo town in Hokkaido, Japan, Where the population does not move much. In this report, we report on the results of the taste test using TASTDISC (Bitterness) in 2019 at Yakumo Town Resident Examination, which has been ongoing since 2007.
