Japanese Subjects

Few studies have examined the association between the accumulation of unhealthy eating habits and the likelihood of obesity or central obesity in a general Japanese population. We examined this association in a sample of 1906 community-dwelling Japanese subjects (age: 40–74 years) who participated in a health check-up in 2014. A face-to-face questionnaire interview was conducted to collect information about three unhealthy eating habits, i.e., snacking, eating quickly, and eating late-evening meals. Obesity was defined as body mass index ≥25 kg/m2 and central obesity was defined as waist circumference ≥90 cm in men and ≥80 cm in women. The odds ratios (OR) were estimated by using a logistic regression analysis. Subjects with any one of the three eating habits had a significantly higher likelihood of obesity than those without that habit after adjusting for confounding factors. The multivariable-adjusted OR for obesity increased linearly with an increase in the number of accumulated unhealthy eating habits (p for trend < 0.001). Similar associations were observed for central obesity. Our findings suggest that modifying each unhealthy eating habit and avoiding an accumulation of multiple unhealthy eating habits might be important to reduce the likelihood of obesity.

Skipping Breakfast

Skipping breakfast is considered to be an unhealthy eating habit linked to predispositions to obesity and type 2 diabetes. Because eating dinner late at night can elicit subsequent breakfast skipping, we investigated if skipping breakfast concomitant with late-night-dinner eating (LNDE) was associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS) and proteinuria in the general Japanese population. We examined self-reported habitual breakfast skipping and LNDE, MetS (modified ATP-III criteria), and proteinuria in a cross-sectional study of 60,800 Japanese adults aged 20–75 years. A total of 14,068 subjects (23.1%) skipped breakfast, of whom approximately half (52.8%) skipped breakfast alone (without LNDE). The percentages of subjects who skipped breakfast showed a J-shaped relationship with body mass index (BMI). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that skipping breakfast concomitant with LNDE (n= 6,645) was significantly associated with MetS and proteinuria, even after adjusting for relevant confounders (odds ratio (95% CI), 1.17 (1.08–1.28),P=0.0003, and 1.37 (1.24–1.52),P<0.0001, resp.). Skipping breakfast alone and LNDE alone were not associated with MetS and proteinuria, respectively. In conclusion, habitual breakfast skipping concomitant with LNDE may represent poorer eating behavior than skipping breakfast alone, associated with MetS, asymptomatic proteinuria, obesity, and low body weight in the general Japanese population.

This systematic review analyzed the prevalence of physical inactivity, sedentary behaviors and unhealthy eating habits among Brazilian adolescents. Searches were conducted in five databases (Lilacs, SciELO, Medline, Web of Science, and Google Scholar) and in the references cited in the articles retrieved. The literature search yielded 5,872 potentially relevant titles and a total of 69 studies met all the inclusion criteria. The risk behavior most often evaluated was physical inactivity (48/69; 69.6%), and its prevalence rate ranged from 2.3% to 93.5%. Twenty-eight studies estimated the prevalence of physical inactivity at over 50%. Most studies observed the prevalence of greater physical inactivity among girls. The prevalence of sedentary behaviors (lengthy screen time or TV use) was also frequently over 50%. Several variables were used to identify unhealthy eating habits, and some criteria/studies have indicated unhealthy eating habit estimates at close to 100% among adolescents. In conclusion, the estimates of these risk behaviors among Brazilians adolescents were very close to or even greater than those found in developed countries in several studies analyzed in this review.

Background: Childhood obesity is related to chronic diseases in the future, which could be prevented through changes in eating habit. Strategy in eating behaviour needs an in-depth understanding on contributing factors to unhealthy eating habits in school-age children. Meanwhile, evidence on those factors, especially related increased calorie intake, is still scarce in Indonesia. Objective: This study is aimed to explore the eating habit of primary school students with obesity in a private school in Yogyakarta. Method: A qualitative interview involving parents of obese children was performed at Sekolah Dasar Budya Wacana in January 2020. The transcripts were analysed using a thematic approach to acquire major themes related to the cause of unhealthy eating habits. Results: From 11 parents, there are two major themes developed, which are unhealthy eating habits and parental influences. There are two unhealthy eating habits discovered in this study, which are irregular mealtime and unhealthy food choices. Parental influence which commonly found in children with obesity is permissive parenting style. Conclusion: This study found similar result with previous studies on unhealthy food choices. However, irregular mealtime in this study is not consistent with other literatures which shows a lack of association with childhood obesity, hence need further research to explore the relationship. Permissive parenting style, which commonly found in younger population also play an important role in children unhealthy food choice. This study revealed that health behaviour change strategy in obese children should consider focussing on healthy food preferences with support from parents and family.

Background: Obesity is one of serious nutritional problems in Indonesia. Based on health profile of Central Java in 2015, Salatiga has the highest percentage of obesity problem counted 71.8% of 561,621 cases. Obesity in elderly are mostly caused by degenerative function of organs which lead to diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and heart disease. Objective: This study aimed to identify elders’ eating habits, their knowledge of obesity and to identify correlation between the knowledge and obesity. Methods: Observational survey technique by using interview, observation, and questionnaire method was employed to 89 respondents. Correlation among all variables was measured by utilizing Pearson Correlation Coefficient. Results: As many as 10.8% of elderly are obese. Their knowledge regarding Pedoman Gizi Seimbang (PGS) is in sufficient category (69,7%). The respondents had unhealthy eating habit by consuming high carbohydrates and fats which might influence the incidence of  obesity. There is no statistical correlation between respondents' knowledge and eating habits (r=-0.37, p>0,05). Conclusion: Even though there is no statistical correlation between respondents’ knowledge and their eating habits, there might be other factors such as age, sex, education, occupation, socio-economic, and family roles that need to be investigated as influencing factors to the obesity incidence in this population.  Keywords:Obesity, elderly, knowledge, dietary history, Salatiga

Access to imaging is limited for diagnosing nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in general populations. This study evaluated the diagnostic performance of noninvasive and nonimaging indexes to predict NAFLD in the general Japanese population. Health checkup examinees without hepatitis virus infection or habitual alcohol drinking were included. Fatty liver was diagnosed by ultrasonography. The hepatic steatosis index (HSI), Zhejiang University (ZJU) index, and fatty liver index (FLI) were determined, and risk of advanced liver fibrosis was evaluated by the fibrosis-4 index. NAFLD was diagnosed in 1935 (28.0%) of the 6927 subjects. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) curve of the HSI, ZJU index, and FLI was 0.874, 0.886, and 0.884, respectively. The AUROC of the ZJU index (p < 0.001) and FLI (p = 0.002) was significantly greater than that for the HSI. In subjects with a high risk of advanced fibrosis, the sensitivity of the HSI, ZJU index, and FLI were 88.8%, 94.4%, and 83.3% with a low cut-off value and the specificity was 98.5%, 100%, and 100% with a high cut-off value. In conclusion, all indexes were useful to diagnose NAFLD in the general Japanese population and in subjects with potentially advanced liver fibrosis.
