Anemia can be related to several factors, including knowledge, body mass index, and menstrual patterns. Adolescent girls are a high-risk group who experience anemia. This study aims to analyze the hemoglobin levels of adolescent girls about knowledge, body mass index, and patterns menstrual. Information on the relationship between hemoglobin levels and these factors expects to be a reference for strategies to overcome anemia in adolescent girls. The sample of this research is the students of Martapura Indonesia vocational high school, totaling 45 people. Data collection includes weight and height measurements, hemoglobin examination (using Easy Touch GCHb), and questionnaires. Data analysis used bivariate analysis of chi-square test with 0.05 with 95% confidence degree. Results Respondents had fewer hemoglobin levels 47%, normal 53%. The body mass index value of respondents is less than 85%, normal 13%, excess 2%. The respondent's menstrual pattern obtained 26% abnormal data, 74% normal data. Knowledge of anemia of respondents with enough category 34%, good category 66%. The conclusion is that there is no relationship between hemoglobin levels and body mass index (p-value 0.281), menstrual patterns (p-value 0.073), and knowledge of anemia (p-value 0.402) in adolescent girls. Hemoglobin levels may more influence by the consumption pattern of foods containing iron, so it recommends that young women consume more iron-rich foods and avoid the simultaneous consumption of substances that inhibit their absorption, such as tea and coffee.

Abstract Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the gold standard for cholecystectomy and can be performed by trained general surgeons. However, the percentage of complications that occur from cholecystectomy laparotomy is approximately 20 percent. So, it is necessary to research risk factors for complications. This research is an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design using preoperative data and intraoperative findings of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Age, gender, body mass index, history of cholecystitis, number of stones, and location of stones are identified as predictors that affect the difficulty of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The data collection was performed at the Mohammad Hoesin Hospital Palembang Department from July 2019- July 2020. Of the 67 research samples, a Chi-square test was performed, and the factors that had a significant relationship were the body mass index (P-Value 0,000), history of cholecystitis (P-Value 0,000), number of stones (P-Value 0.049), and stone location. (P-Value 0.002). The backward stepwise logistic regression using the four variables showed that the history of cholecystiti

Women in postmenopausal period of their life face various physical and physiological changes causing lack of estrogen and progesterone hormones, changes in the reproductive and genitals organs, vasomotor system in the body along with mood related symptoms such as anxiety, etc. Lifestyle, body fat distribution and anthropometric changes adds on to the bone strength in postmenopausal women. It may be a risk factor for osteoporotic fracture, cardiovascular, metabolic diseases, etc. Core strength and stability is greatly influenced by body composition and adiposity. The aim of the study was to correlate the core strength assessed with the Body Mass Index (BMI) among postmenopausal women. The objective of the study is to find the correlation between the core strength assessed with the Body Mass Index using 60° flexion test, Beiring Sorenson test and Unilateral Hip Bridge Endurance test among postmenopausal women with age ranging from 46-70 years. 96 healthy postmenopausal women in Karad city with a natural history of menopause were selected for the study. Based upon BMI values, the subjects were grouped as Underweight (<18.5 kg/m2), Normal weight (18.5-24.9 kg/m2), Overweight (25-29.9 kg/m2 and more). The outcome values for strength were correlated with the BMI of postmenopausal women. In the study, the Pearson correlation(r) was -0.361 and the P value was 0.0003 showing extremely significant correlation between the BMI and 60° Flexion test. For the Beiring Sorenson Test, the Pearson correlation value was -0.305 and the P value was 0.0025 showing very significant correlation between the BMI and Beiring Sorenson Test. Correlation of BMI and Unilateral Hip Bridge Endurance Test shows a Pearson Correlation value of -0.322 and the P value 0.0013 claiming very significant correlation between the BMI and Unilateral Hip Bridge Endurance Test. The study concludes that there is a significantly negative correlation between the core strength and stability with the Body Mass Index among postmenopausal women.
