We sought to identify metabolites that mark the relationship of sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) intake with adiposity and metabolic risk among boys (n = 114) and girls (n = 128) aged 8–14 years. We conducted the analysis in three steps: (1) linear regression to examine associations of SSB intake (quartiles) with adiposity, glycemia, lipids, and blood pressure (BP); (2) least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression to identify SSB-associated metabolites from an untargeted dataset of 938 metabolites; and (3) linear regression to determine whether SSB-related metabolites are also associated with adiposity and metabolic risk. In girls, SSB intake was associated with marginally higher BP (Q2 vs, Q1: 1.11 [−3.90, 6.13], Q3 vs. Q1: 1.16 [−3.81, 6.13], Q4 vs. Q1: 4.65 [−0.22, 9.53] mmHg systolic blood pressure (SBP); P-trend = 0.07). In boys, SSB intake corresponded with higher C-peptide insulin resistance (Q2 vs. Q1: 0.06 [−0.06, 0.19], Q3 vs. Q1: 0.01 [−0.12, 0.14], Q4 vs. Q1: 0.17 [0.04, 0.30] ng/mL; P-trend = 0.03) and leptin (P-trend = 0.02). LASSO identified 6 annotated metabolites in girls (5-methyl-tetrohydrofolate, phenylephrine, urate, nonanoate, deoxyuridine, sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) and 3 annotated metabolites in boys (2-piperidinone, octanoylcarnitine, catechol) associated with SSB intake. Among girls, urate and nonanoate marked the relationship of SSB intake with BP. None of the SSB-associated metabolites were related to health outcomes in boys.

Abstract Objective: The present study aims to understand the relationship of socioeconomic characteristics, menstrual hygiene practices and gynaecological problems among adolescent girls residing in rural and urban areas in the state of West Bengal, India. Methods: The study was based on a sample of 715 adolescent girls from rural (325) and urban (390) areas of West Bengal, a state in Eastern India. These girls belong to the Bengali-speaking Hindu community. Data on socioeconomic characteristics, menstrual hygiene practices (such as type of absorbents used and mode of cleaning of genitals during days of menstrual discharge) and gynaecological problems were collected using pretested questionnaires. Results: Rural and urban girls differ (p<0.01) for age at menarche, menstrual hygiene practices and prevalence of gynaecological problems. Urban girls have better menstrual hygiene practices (β=0.343, p<0.01) than rural girls. A similar trend is noted for gynaecological problems (β=0.080, p<0.01) among the study participants. Apart from socioeconomic characteristics, menstrual hygiene (β=–0.121, p<0.01) remains a significant predictor of gynaecological problems. The results of path analysis also indicate that girls of higher socioeconomic status have better menstrual hygiene practices which subsequently reduce the prevalence of gynaecological problems among them. Conclusion: A concerted effort from parents, educational institutions and existing healthcare institutions along with media may ensure safe and secure reproductive health prospects for adolescents in the region.

Background. The relationship between teenager girls with idiopathic scoliosis and their mothers may be a source of mental strain during complex restorative treatment.Aim of the study. To assess the mother-daughter relationship of adolescent girls with severe idiopathic scoliosis.Materials and methods. The experimental group consisted of 30 women with teenager daughters diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis of the 4th degree. The control group included 30 women with teenager daughters with no orthopedic pathology. The questionnaire “Diagnostic of parental relationship” (Varga and Stolin) and the methodology “Teenagers on their parents” (Schafer, Mateychik, and Rzhichan) were used as research methods.Results and discussion. General and specific characteristics of the mother-daughter relationship in families of adolescent girls with idiopathic scoliosis and families of healthy girls were identified. Mothers of girls with idiopathic scoliosis and mothers of girls with o orthopedic disorder demonstrated a pronounced positive attitude to their daughters. Mothers of daughters with idiopathic scoliosis, in contrast to mothers of healthy daughters, were more likely to actively cooperate with their daughters in various aspects of life, including treatment. We investigated the mother-daughter relationship and how to assess this relationship with adolescent girls. Emotionally, non-judgmental acceptance of a daughter with severe idiopathic scoliosis is perceived by the daughter as the mother's desire for an emotionally close and trusting relationship. The attitude of the mother regarding an ill daughter as a failure will be perceived as hostility manifested as strict control by the mother. The mother's attitude to a healthy daughter manifesting as overprotection is perceived by adolescent girls as an authoritarian attitude by the mother.Conclusion: General and specific characteristics of the mother-daughter relationship in families of adolescent girls with idiopathic scoliosis and families of healthy adolescent girls were revealed. In the context of complex surgical treatment, preventive measures are necessary to address psychological difficulties in adolescent patients with idiopathic scoliosis.

Youth groups who work as dancers are prone to malnutrition. The leaner body shape is considered to make it easier to move so that teens tend to limit food intake in order to achieve ideal body shape. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of perceptions of body shape, eating disorders, nutritional knowledge, and food intake with nutritional status in adolescent girls in Ayodya Pala. This research was conducted in May 2019 at the Ayodya Pala. The research was a cross-sectional study. This study used a total sampling technique, which means that the total population was the subject of research. The result showed that 58% of subjects had poor nutritional status, 50,8% of subjects had negative perceptions of body shape, 57,1% of subjects had eating disorders, 55,6% of subjects had less knowledge of nutrition. More than 50% of subjects were lack of energy and macronutrient intake. In conclusion, there was a significant relationship (p=0,000) between body shape perception, eating disorders, nutritional knowledge, and food intake with nutritional status.

Abstract: DMF-T index with the incidence of anemia in adolescent girls based on nutritional status. The DMF-T index in Indonesia based on the results of 2013 basic health research nationally reached 4.6 which means that everyone has dental and oral health cases such as cavities, missing teeth removed by caries and there are still good fillings, as many as 5 cases. West Kalimantan Province, the DMF-T index reached 6.2 or 7 cases. Tooth decay in adolescents as the next generation is very disturbing in the mastication process, which can reduce the intake of nutrients into one's body. If this event continues from an early age to adolescence and adulthood, it can cause a decrease in the quantity of red blood cells in the circulation or the amount of hemoglobin is below normal limits. The lack of hemoglobin in the blood can interfere with growth and development, to the nutritional status. The area of ​​Pontianak City is 107. 82 km2 with a population of 607,438 people, and the target of teenagers who have been screened in 2018 in November was 97.779 people. The purpose of this study was to describe the DMF-T index, the incidence of anemia by looking at the nutritional status of adolescent girls, as well as looking at the relationship of these variables. This type of research is descriptive research with explanatory research. How to take samples with random side, univariate analysis, bivariate with correlation regression test. The results showed the DMF-T index in young women in the Khatulistiwa Health Center in Pontianak Utara District Pontianak City was very low (0.0-1.0) as much as 36.4%, the incidence of anemia as normal as much as 77.3% and nutritional status (BMI / BW: TB2) the average thin (<18.4 kg / m2) is 59.1%. The conclusions of this study indicate that the index of DMF-T is very low (36.4%) and is not related to nutritional status because the cnification value is 0.13> from 0.05, the incidence of anemia is normal (77.3%) but is highly related to nutritional status because the value of cnification 0.01 <from 0.05, while the nutritional status of the average thin (<18.4 kg / m2) is 59.1%. Absrak: Indek’s DMF-T dengan Kejadian Anemia pada Remaja Putri Berdasarkan Status Gizi. Indek’s DMF-T di Indonesia berdasarkan hasil riset kesehatan dasar tahun 2013 secara Nasional mencapai 4,6 yang artinya setiap orang mempunyai kasus kesehatan gigi dan mulut seperti gigi berlubang, gigi hilang dicabut oleh karena karies dan terdapat tambalan yang masih baik yaitu sebanyak 5 kasus. Provinsi Kalimantan Barat, Indek’s DMF-T mencapai 6,2 atau 7 kasus. Kerusakan gigi pada remaja sebagai generasi penerus sangat mengganggu dalam proses pengunyahan, yang berakibat dapat mengurangi asupan gizi kedalam tubuh seseorang. Kejadian tersebut apabila berlanjut dari usia dini sampai remaja dan dewasa, maka dapat menyebabkan penurunan kuantitas sel-sel darah merah dalam sirkulasi atau jumlah hemoglobin berada dibawah batas normal. Kurangnya jumlah hemoglobin dalam darah dapat mengganggu pertumbuhan dan perkembangan, sampai pada status gizi kurang. Luas wilayah Kota Pontianak 107. 82 km2 dengan jumlah penduduk 607.438 jiwa, dan sasaran remaja yang sudah mendapat diskrening di tahun 2018 bulan November tercatat sebanyak 97.779 orang. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mendeskripsikan Indek’s DMF-T, kejadian anemia dengan melihat status gizi remaja putri, serta melihat keterkaitan dari variabel tersebut. Jenis  penelitian ini adalah penelitian deskriptif dengan penelitian explanatory research. Cara pengambilan sampel dengan random samping, analisa univariat, bivariat dengan uji regresi korelasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan indek’s DMF-T pada remaja putri diwilayah Puskesmas Khatulistiwa Kecamatan Pontianak Utara Kota Pontianak adalah rendah sekali (0,0-1,0) sebanyak 36,4%, kejadian anemia rata-rata normal sebanyak 77,3% dan status gizi (IMT/BB:TB2) rata-rata kurus (< 18,4 kg/m2) yaitu sebanyak 59,1%.  Simpulan penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa indek’s DMF-T rendah sekali (36,4%) dan tidak berhubungan dengan status gizi karena nilai siknifikasi 0,13 > dari 0,05, kejadian anemia normal (77,3%) tetapi sangat berhubungan dengan status gizi karena nilai siknifikasi 0,01 < dari 0,05, sedangkan status gizi rata-rata kurus (< 18,4 kg/m2) yaitu 59,1%.

Introduction: Eating habits including food choice are responsible formalnutrition problem in Indonesia. For example, fast foods are very popular in adolescent life, especially who lives in urban areas. The objective of this research is to analyze the relationship of daily intake of Advanced Glycation End products (AGEs), fibers and vitamin C with nutrition status in adolescent girls.Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted in 150 adolescent girls of senior high schools who were in grade X and XI in Kediri city, East Java Province. Data of AGEs, fibers and vitamin C intake were determined using a 24h food recall questionnaire for two alternating days.Nutrition status was based on body mass index for age based on the z-score issued by the Indonesian Ministry of Health. The chi square and multiple logistic regression test was used to analyze the relationship of those variables with nutrition status. The significant level was set up at p value < 0.05.Results: The prevalence of overweight and obese was 26% in adolescent girls. Inadequate daily intake of fibers and vitamin C was commonly found in adolescent girls whilst AGEs were highly consumed by adolescent girls. AGEs intake (OR=1.85; 95% CI: 0.88-3.85; p=0.101), fiber intake (OR=0.92; 95% CI: 0.43-1.99; p= 0.839) and vitamin C intake (OR=0.85; 95% CI: 0.36-1.99; p=0.710) were positively related to nutrition status but it was not statistically significant.Discussion: High intake of AGEs and low intake of fiber and vitamin Cincreases the risk of overweight and obese in adolescent girls, compared to those who have low intake of AGEs and high intake of fibers and vitamin C but it was not statistically significant.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 04 No. 02 April’20 Page : 109-113
