Background: Adolescents are not given much attention when it comes to feeding. However, their nutrient needs are high during this stage of life. It is important, therefore, that adolescents have reliable nutrition information that would enable them to develop healthy dietary practices. Studies of adolescents’ perceptions on healthy foods and the factors that act as barriers to healthy eating are essential for developing interventions that would promote healthy eating habits among adolescents. Objectives: The objective of this study was to investigate the perceptions of adolescents in Junior High Schools in Ghana regarding what “healthy” and “unhealthy” foods are, the importance of healthy eating and barriers to healthy eating. Methodology: This survey was a cross-sectional study involving 820 adolescents who were sampled from six Junior High Schools. A questionnaire was administered to the students after permission had been obtained from the headteachers and their parents. Results: The surveyed adolescents have some knowledge of what healthy foods are. Fruits as well as roasted and grilled food items were usually cited as healthy foods, while snack food items, fried food items, soft drinks and meat products were generally considered as unhealthy foods. Despite their knowledge of healthy foods, most of them found it difficult to obtain and eat healthy foods. Some barriers to consuming healthy foods include thelimited availability of healthy foods in homes and schools,andthe fact that healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables are expensive and usually not tasty. Conclusions: These findings suggest that healthy eating messages propagated through the lessons taught in schools are reaching adolescents. However, it behooves health educators to plan and implement interventions that would help adolescents translate their knowledge into healthy practices. School authorities and parents should create an environment where healthy foods would be readily available on school premises and at home.

Abstract: Low-density lipoproteins (LDL) are lipoproteins that carry cholesterol to maintain the functions of cells. One factor that can raise the levels of LDL is obesity. In general, obese people have higher triglycerides stored under the skin (subcutaneous). Triglycerides are the main ingredient for the formation of VLDL in the liver. This study aimed to get an overview of the levels of LDL in overweight and obese students at the Pax Christie and Don Bosco junior high schools in Manado. This was a cross sectional analytic study. Samples involved 30 students meeting the inclusion criteria: age 10-15 years, Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥23.0, and willing to be respondents with signed parental informed consents. Results: Samples of obese students were 26 (86.7%) and of overweight students four (13.3%). There were six students (20%) who had LDL higher than normal levels (≥130 mg/dL). Conclusion: InManado, there were more obese students than overweight students. Some of the students showed LDL higher than normal levels. Keywords: students, overweight, obesity, LDL.     Abstrak: Lipoprotein densitas rendah merupakan lipoprotein yang mengangkut kolesterol ke sel-sel tubuh yang memerlukannya, dimana bila kadarnya berlebih tentu akan berpengaruh buruk terhadap kesehatan. Salah satu faktor yang dapat meningkatkan kadar LDL adalah obesitas. Orang gemuk umumnya memiliki kadar trigliserida yang tinggi dan disimpan dibawah kulit. Trigliserida ialah komponen utama yang membentuk lipoprotein densitas sangat rendah (VLDL) di organ hati. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kadar LDL pada pelajar tingkat dasar Pax Christie dan Don Bosco Manado yang berat badannya berlebih (overweight) dan yang obesitas. Metode penelitian berupa analisis cross-sectional. Sampel sebanyak 30 pelajar dengan kriteria inklusi: umur 10-15 tahun, Indeks Massa Tubuh (IMT) ≥23,0, dan bersedia mengikuti penilitan. Hasil penelitian memperlihatkan jumlah sampel yang obes sebanyak 26 pelajar (86,7%) dan yang overwight empat pelajar (13,3%). Terdapat enam pelajar (20%) dengan LDL melebihi nilai normal (≥130 mg/dL). Simpulan: Di Kota Manado, jumlah pelajar yang obes melebihi yang overweight. Beberapa di antaranya memperlihatkan kadar LDL melebihi nilai normal. Kata kunci: pelajar, berat badan berlebih, obesitas, LDL.

<p>Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an independent risk factor for cognitive impairment in all domains, especially delayed memory and executive function. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between chronic kidney disease severity and cognitive function. This study used a cross-sectional design in stage III, IV, and V CKD patients in the Nephrology Polyclinic of Haji Adam Malik Central General Hospital. Cognitive function tests were performed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA INA), digit span, and Trail Making Test A &amp; B. The Spearman test was used to analyze the correlation between CKD severity and cognitive function. This study involved 45 chronic kidney disease patients consisting of 28 (62.2%) males and 17 (37.8%) females with a mean age of 49.67±12.18 years. The results of statistical analysis showed that there was a significant positive correlation between CKD on the MoCA-INA examination (r=0.618, p=&lt;0.001), FDS (r=0.414, p=0.005), there was a significant negative correlation on the TMT A time examination (r=-0.425, p=0.004), TMT A error (r=-0.497, p=0.001), TMT B time (r=-0.618, p=&lt;0.001), TMT B error (r=-0.370, p=0.012). The results of this study prove a significant correlation between the severity of CKD and cognitive function.</p>

Chi squares, multiple regression analysis and one-way analysis of variance statistical techniques were used to analyse the data.Results: There were significant variations in knowledge about reproductive physiology and knowledge about condom use. Private schools with the health club intervention reported higher scores on both knowledge about reproductive physiology and knowledge about condom. Adolescents in private schools with the intervention had a more positive attitude towards abstinence. Adolescents in schools with the intervention were less likely to have had sex, use condoms, or have friends who have had sex compared to adolescents in schools that do to implement the intervention.
