Background: Hypertension is one of the most common disorders and is a major public health problem that causes 20% to 50% of world mortality. On the other hand, obesity is also a risk factor for type 2 diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular disease, osteoarthritis and has a major share in health costs. Therefore, the relationship between body mass index and blood pressure has been considered. By this study, in general, about these indicators in the age group of under 30 years, useful information can be found.  Methods: In order to collect information, a questionnaire was prepared and a random sampling was completed for a number of students from Shahrekord University of Medical Sciences. The data were analyzed using spss version 22. Results: By analyzing the results, it was found that systolic and diastolic blood pressures of both hands had a direct and significant relationship with age, so that by increasing the age, there is an increasing in hypertension (p≤0.001). Systolic blood pressure also showed a significant relationship with gender, and it was found that in men it is more than women. Finally, in examining the relationship between BMI and blood pressure, the results show that there is a positive and significant relationship between these two parameters, so that the increase in BMI also increases the systolic and diastolic blood pressure (p = 0.0001). Conclusion: Blood pressure in students has a direct and significant correlation with age, sex, and body mass index.

Introduction: Postpartum depression (PPD) is a common disorder and a type of clinical depression that affects mothers during the first 4 weeks after childbirth. Considering the destructive effects of this disease on mothers' behavior, identifying the factors affecting PPDand using proper methods in normal delivery is important. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between regional anesthesia (RA) during labor and the incidence of PPDin women referred to hospitals affiliated to Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences. Methodology: In this study, 200 pregnant women referred to hospitals of Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences during 2015 to 2017 entered into two equal groups, Group R, administered RA, and Group C; control group without RA according to their desire. Each group consisted of 100 parturients, and the two groups were compared for the incidence of PPD and the association of depression with RA during labor. Results: Based on the obtained data, the participants in the two groups did not differ significantly in terms of age, body mass index (BMI), duration of delivery phases and depression in the first week of postpartum. However, the severity of pain in different phases of delivery was different due to the use of anesthetic for one of the groups. No significant relationship between RA and depression was observed in the first week after childbirth. However, RA has a significant relationship with PPD in the 4th week, so that the use of RA reduces the incidence of PPD in the 4th week (p = 0.066). Conclusion: We conclude that the use of regional anesthesia will not have a significant effect on postpartum depression in the first week, but it reduces the incidence of postpartum depression in the 4th week after childbirth.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji hubungan antara Physical Self-Concept (PSC)dengan Body Mass Index (BMI)serta perbedaan PSC dan BMI berdasarkan gender. Metode yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah assosiasonal (correlational dan kausal-komparatif). Sample berjumlah 59 orang siswa remaja SMA di Kabupaten Ciamis. Instrument yang digunakan untuk mengukur PSC adalah Physical Self Description Questionnaire (PSDQ). Untuk menguji hubungan antara PSC dan BMI digunakan koefisien korelasi, dan untuk uji beda digunakan independent sample t-test. Hasil pengolahan dan analisis menunjukan bahwa, (1) tidak ada hubungan yang signifikan antara PSC dan BMI (p 0.05); (2) tidak terdapat perbedaan BMI yang signifikan antara laki-laki dan perempuan (p 0.05); (3) terdapat perbedaan PSC yang signifikan  antara laki-laki dan perempuan (p 0.05).This study aims to examine the relationship between Physical Self-Concept (PSC) and Body Mass Index (BMI) and differences in PSC and BMI based on gender. The method used in this study is associational (correlational and causal-comparative). Sample amounted to 59 high school teenagers in Ciamis Regency. The instrument used to measure PSC is Physical Self Description Questionnaire (PSDQ). To test the relationship between PSC and BMI used the correlation coefficient, and for the different tests used independent sample t-test. The results of processing and analysis show that, (1) there is no significant relationship between PSC and BMI (p 0.05); (2) there was no significant difference in BMI between men and women (p 0.05); (3) there are significant differences in PSC between men and women (p 0.05).

ABSTRACTObjective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between tooth loss and the level of blood pressure with the hypothesis that tooth loss is associated with the increase of hypertension in postmenopausal women. Materials and Methods: Sixty postmenopausal female patients aged 51-68 years were included in the study to assess the relationship between tooth loss and the level of blood pressure. The information including sociodemographics, last menstruation period, hypertension history, and the duration of having tooth loss was recorded. Blood pressure was measured using sphygmomanometer and the number of tooth loss was determined. Results: The results showed a more significant tooth loss in hypertension (median: 23 + 4; interquartile range [IQR]: 6) compared to the normotension postmenopausal women (median: 18 + 6; IQR: 12; P < 0.05). Furthermore, obese patients had more tooth loss (median: 23 + 5; IQR: 8) than the overweight patients (median: 19 + 8; IQR: 8). Conclusion: Tooth loss is associated with the increase of hypertension in postmenopausal women which may have a role in the development of vascular diseases.
