Abstract Background Students need quality sleep and regular feeding during an intensive training proces. The aim of this study was to determine the sleep quality of Faculty of Medicine students and whether there is a relationship between sleep quality and eating attitudes and habits. Methods In this cross-sectional study; a face-to-face questionnaire was administered to 352 students who attending Inonu University Medical Faculty between January and March of 2019. The sample group is stratified according to class sizes (total 1665 students. The sleep quality and eating behaviors of students were questioned. For purpose, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PUKI, developed by Buysse et al,1989), and Eating Attitude Test (EAT,developed by Garner et al 1982) was used to assess quality and disorders. Kolmogorov Smirnov normal distribution test, Mann Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis test were used in analysis of the data. Results The mean age of the students was 21.5 ± 2.5 and 54.3% were female and 45.7% were male and 25.0% smoked cigarette. 64.4% of the study group had normal body mass index. The median value of the PUKI (cut of point is 5.0 and under 5 is good) score by gender is similar with 6.0 (1.0-15.0). The median value of the PUKI score was 6.0 (1.0-16.0) in social media / internet users and 5.0 (1.0-13.0) in non-users. According to Internet / social media users before going to sleep, the difference is significant (p: 0.016). The difference between cigarette smoking and median value of PUKI was significant (p: 0.029). there was a difference between classes in favor of upper classes in terms of EAT values (p = 0,046). 12.2% of the students are at risk of Blumia and 10.8% are at risk of Anorexia. There was no significant but positive correlation between the PUKI and EAT (p = 0.074, r = 0.096). Conclusions In general, the students’ sleep quality and eating attitudes and habits were found close to the cut-off points accepted by the tests. But blumia and anorexia is significant. This study was supported by the Research Fund of the Inonu University (No. 1792) Key messages Social media / internet usage of students before going to sleep affects sleep quality significantly. Although 64.4% of the students have normal body mass index, eating disorders (bulumia and anorexia) risk are noteable.

Objectives: To determine the effect of Age, Gender and its correlation on pulmonary functions of Forced Vital Capacity and Slow Vital Capacity in Group I (18-24 years) and Group II (25-30 years) with respect to Body Mass Index.  Methodology: Sixty healthy adults between 18-30 years were included in the study. Participants were subdivided into Group I (18 to 24 years) and Group II (25 to 30 years) each group having 15 males and 15 females. The parameters considered were expiratory reserve volume, tidal volume, inspiratory capacity, forced vital capacity and slow vital capacity. Spirometer RMS HELIOS 401 was used. Procedures were explained to each participant; best values from 3 maneuvers were documented and were subjected to analysis.  Results: It is noticed a significant difference in various parameters of pulmonary function. As age increases there was an increase in body mass index and the lung volume also increased. Overall males had higher pulmonary function compared to females, males in Group II (25-30 years) was better compared to males in Group I (18-24 years). With an increase in body mass index, pulmonary function was increased in males compared to females. Age, gender, age, and gender interaction effect with respect to Body Mass Index was seen.  Conclusion: Values obtained can be used as reference standard for estimation of lung volume for age group 18-30 years. In future, Spirometry can be used as a clinical assessment and management tool in the field of speech language pathology, by modifying respiratory patterns to control lung volumes, phonations and the flow of speech.

Obesity is a major health problem of excessive adipose tissue accumulation in body which leads to problem in Asian countries like India as a result of rapidly changing life style which involves consumption of calorie rich food with lack of physical activities. While the complication of obesity such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes and osteoarthritis are well known, but less emphasis is traditionally placed on the effects of obesity on the respiratory system. Obesity is responsible for lessening the lung volume and capacities by reducing both lung and chest wall acquiescence and also there is an increase in resistance to outflow of air through the airways. Purpose of present study is to establish a relationship between Forced Vital Capacity and Body Mass Index (BMI). The present study was undertaken in department of Physiology in Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Medical College, Jabalpur MP in year 2018. The subjects comprised of both male and female 50 individuals came to Physiology department for Pulmonary function test from other departments of the college. After explaining and training the subjects Spirometry of all individuals was done by Computerised Spirometer in well ventilated room, after written consent in Department of Physiology. Tools used in present study were chi square, t-test etc.

Lung function consists of ventilation, diffusion, and perfusion. One of the parameters used to assess the function of lung ventilation is forced vital capacity of the lungs. One of the factors that influence a person's lung function is body mass index. Some studies suggested that person obesity had a decresing of Forced vital lung capacity (FVC)The objective of this study was to see how the correlation between the Body Mass Index and Forced Vital Capacity in students of the Faculty of Sport Sciences, Universitas Negeri Medan. This was a correlative analytic study with cross sectional design. 63 male students of the sports faculty of Universitas Negeri Medan, aged 18-23 years and did not have smoking habits were selected as samples by purposive sampling method. The Body Mass Index was measured body weight and height while the measurement of Forced Vital Capacity was carried out using a calibrated Fukudo Sangyo brand. The correlation between the Body Mass Index and the Forced Vital Capacity of Lungs was analyzed using the Pearson correlation test. The mean value of the student Body Mass Index (BMI) is 22.77 with SD + 2.59. The average value of forced vital capacity of students is 106.44% with SD + 20.25. Based on the Pearson correlation test, there is a significant positive correlation between body mass index and forced lung vital capacity of the sports science faculty(p value = 0.008) with medium correlation strength (r = 0.302). The higher the body mass index, the higher the vital capacity of the student's lung force.

Hipertensiadalah penyebab kematian utama di Indonesia. Kematian akibat hipertensi lebih banyak terjadi di perkotaan dibandingkan di desa. Tingginya kejadian hipertensi dipengaruhi oleh faktor yang dapat dikontrol (obesitas,berat badan lebih, konsumsi garam berlebih,aktivitas fisik rendah, perokok, dan konsumsi alkohol) dan faktor yang tidak dapat dikontrol (genetik, usia, dan jenis kelamin). Penelitian bertujuan memberikan gambarandistribusi tekanan darah dan indeks massa tubuh (IMT) pendudukperempuan di kota maupun di desa.Desain penelitian adalah deskriptif kuatitatif dengan pendekatan cross sectional. Data primer didapatkan melalui pengukuran tekanan darah, tinggi badan dan berat badan. Penelitian dilakukan di Desa Kutowinangun Kidul, Kecamatan Tingkir,Salatiga yang mewakili penduduk perempuan di perkotaan dan Desa Batur, Kecamatan Getasan, Kabupaten Semarangyang mewakili penduduk perempuan pedesaan. Adapun jumlah sampel masing-masing 66 respondendan 72responden. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kejadian penyakit hipertensi, resiko obese dan obese lebih didominasi oleh respondendi perkotaan dibandingkan di pedesaan dengan rentang usia di atas 46 tahun. Respondendi desa dengan indeks massa tubuh normal cenderung mengalami pre-hipertensi (8,3%) dan hipertensi stadium I (6,9%) sementararesponden dengan resiko obese dan obese cenderung mengalami hipertensi stadium I (1,4%).Respondendi kota dengan indeks massa tubuh normal cenderung mengalami pre hipertensi (6,06%), hipertensi stadium I (4,5%) dan II (7,5%). Responden dengan resiko obese cenderung mengalami hipertensi stadium I (4,5%), dan responden dengan obese I dan II cenderung mengalami pre-hipertensi (4,5%).   Hypertension is the leading cause of death in Indonesia. Deaths due to hypertension are more common in urban areas than in villages. The high incidence of hypertension is influenced by factors that can be controlled (obesity, overweight, excessive salt consumption, low physical activity, smokers, and alcohol consumption) and factors that cannot be controlled (genetic, age, and sex). The study aimed to provide an overview of blood pressure distribution and body mass index (BMI) of female residents in cities and villages. The study design was descriptive quantitative with a cross sectional approach. Primary data was obtained through measurements of blood pressure, height and weight. The study was conducted in Kutowinangun Kidul Village, Tingkir Subdistrict, Salatiga representing women in urban areas and Batur Village, Getasan Subdistrict, Semarang Regency, representing rural women. The number of samples was 66 respondents and 72 respondents respectively. The results showed that the incidence of hypertension, the risk of obese and obese was more dominated by respondents in urban areas than in rural areas with ages above 46 years. Respondents in villages with normal body mass index tended to experience pre-hypertension (8.3%) and stage I hypertension (6.9%) while respondents with obese and obese risk tended to experience stage I hypertension (1.4%). Respondents in cities with normal body mass index tended to experience pre-hypertension (6.06%), stage I hypertension (4.5%) and II (7.5%). Respondents with obese risk tended to experience stage I hypertension (4.5%), and respondents with obese I and II tended to experience pre-hypertension (4.5%).

Abstract What We Already Know about This Topic What This Article Tells Us That Is New Background Neuraxial labor analgesia may benefit obese women by optimizing cardiorespiratory function and mitigating complications related to emergency general anesthesia. We hypothesized that obese women have a higher rate of neuraxial analgesia compared with nonobese parturients. Methods Using U.S. natality data, our cohort comprised 17,220,680 deliveries, which accounts for 61.5% of 28 million births in the United States between 2009 and 2015. We examined the relationships between body mass index class and neuraxial labor analgesia, adjusting for sociodemographic, antenatal, pregnancy, and peripartum factors. Results The study cohort comprised 17,220,680 women; 0.1% were underweight, 12.7% were normal body mass index, 37% were overweight, and 28.3%, 13.5%, and 8.4% were obesity class I, II, and III, respectively. Rates of neuraxial analgesia by body mass index class were as follows: underweight, 59.7% (9,030/15,128); normal body mass index, 68.1% (1,487,117/2,182,797); overweight, 70.3% (4,476,685/6,368,656); obesity class I, 71.8% (3,503,321/4,881,938); obesity class II, 73.4% (1,710,099/2,330,028); and obesity class III, 75.6% (1,089,668/1,442,133). Compared to women with normal body mass index, the likelihood of receiving neuraxial analgesia was slightly increased for overweight women (adjusted relative risk, 1.02; 95% CI, 1.02 to 1.02), obese class I (adjusted relative risk, 1.04; 95% CI, 1.04 to 1.04), obese class II (adjusted relative risk, 1.05; 95% CI, 1.05 to 1.05), and obese class III (adjusted relative risk, 1.06; 95% CI, 1.06 to 1.06). Conclusions Our findings suggest that the likelihood of receiving neuraxial analgesia is only marginally increased for morbidly obese women compared to women with normal body mass index.
