Background: The increased consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) has been found to be an important contributor of calories in the diet. Whether there is an association between the increased consumption of SSBs and the high rates of overweight and obesity is still questionable. The objective of this study was to examine the relationship of weight status and beverages consumed of adults in a residential compound in Abu Dhabi.Methods: Forty nine out of 65 residents form Al Reef Villas in Abu Dhabi agreed to participate in the study. Initial assessments including beverages frequency questionnaire and anthropometry measurements were completed for all participants. Participants who were identified as high beverages consumers were invited to a one-month intervention aiming to limit their beverages consumption. A final assessment was completed for all high consumers of beverages at the end of the one-month intervention.Results: 55% of the subjects were overweight or obese, and 51% had abdominal obesity. 73% consumed 100% fruit juices with no added sugar, 65% consumed soft drinks, and 60 % consumed plain milk and milk products. The majority (69%) consumed tea beverages rather than coffee beverages. There was no association between weight & beverages consumption. The mean energy percentage from beverages was 14.2 (± 11.1) among all participants. 53% were considered high consumers of beverages and 47% (n=23) were considered low consumers of beverages. The one-month intervention showed a significant decrease in % of calories from beverages and weight in the overweight & obese intervention group (p<0.001 and p<0.05) respectively.Conclusion: This study highlighted major health problems in Abu Dhabi including high rates of overweight, obesity, and abdominal obesity. The one-month intervention was effective in reducing the energy percentage from beverages and weight of the overweight and obese participants, but no association was found in this sample between beverages consumption and overweight and obesity.

There has been constant debate about the predictability of the security markets. We examine the relationship between the prices of a stock and its convertible bond during the Hong Kong stock market bubble of 1997 and its subsequent crash. We find that the price behavior of the share and the convertible bond not only gave a clear signal of the market reversal, but also the minimum range of the stock price change. This example offers concrete evidence that the market becomes highly predictable at times and gives us a chance to understand the relationship of the underlying stock and its derivatives during market bubbles.

Keterlibatan pendukung pasien (keluarga) sangat dapat membantu dalam proses pengobatan dalam kemampuan mengontrol halusinasi pendengaran pada klien halusinasi pendengaran. Tujuan Penelitian : Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan dukungan keluarga dengan kemampuan mengontrol halusinasi pendengaran pada klien halusinasi pendengaran di Poli Jiwa RSJD Dr. RM Soedjarwadi Provinsi Jawa Tengah tahun 2018. Metode Penelitian : Penelitian ini menggunakan desain studi korelasi untuk melihat adanya hubungan dukungan keluarga  dengan kemampuan mengontrol halusinasi pendengaran pada klien halusinasi pendengaran. Besar sampel dalam penelitian ini mengunakan kriteria sampling sebagai berikut: Populasi < 100 diambil total/ semua sampling. Dalam penelitian ini, jumlah sampelnya berjumlah 40 responden. Hasil Penelitian : Berdasarkan hasil uji statistic chi-square didapatkan nilai P-value > α yaitu (0,356 > 0,05) yang artinya tidak ada hubungan antara dukungan keluarga dengan kemampuan klien mengontrol halusinasi pendengaran di Poli Jiwa RSJD Dr. RM Soedjarwadi Provinsi Jawa Tengah tahun 2018. Kesimpulan dan Saran : Tidak ada hubungan antara dukungan keluarga dengan kemampuan klien mengontrol halusinasi pendengaran di Poli Jiwa RSJD Dr. RM Soedjarwadi Provinsi Jawa Tengah tahun 2018.

Method: This study uses a correlation study design to see the relationship of family support with the ability to control auditory hallucinations in auditory hallucinations clients. The sample size in this study used the following sampling criteria: Population <100 was taken total/ all sampling. In this study, the number of samples was 40 respondents. Result: Based on the results of the chi-square statistical test, the value of P-value> α is obtained (0.356> 0.05) which means there is no relationship between family support and the client's ability to control auditory hallucinations at the Psychiatric Psychology RSJD Dr. RM Soedjarwadi Province of Central Java in 2018. Conclusion and Reccomendation: There is no relationship between family support and the client's ability to control auditory hallucinations at the Psychiatric Psychology RSJD Dr. RM Soedjarwadi Province of Central Java in 2018.

Objective. To examine the relationship of exercise with overweight and obesity among an ethnically diverse sample of U.S. children. Method. Data from the 2011-2012 National Survey of Children’s Health were analyzed to examine the relationship of daily exercise with children’s weight status. Propensity score covariate adjustment and multivariate logistic regression with survey weights were used to control for child, home, and community characteristics. Results. Approximately 22% of all children ages 10 to 17 years engaged in daily exercise for at least 20 minutes. In the adjusted model for the entire sample, daily exercise was associated with children having a lower likelihood of being overweight or obese (odds ratio = 0.79; 95% confidence interval = 0.68-0.91). In a stratified analysis of the major racial and ethnic groups, however, while White children who exercised daily were found to have a lower odds of being overweight or obese (odds ratio = 0.70; 95% confidence interval = 0.60-0.82), this relationship was not found for most minority children. Conclusions. Racial and ethnic minority children were not found to have the same weight status relationship with exercising daily. These findings suggest that some population-average exercise recommendations may not be as applicable to minority children.
