Jatropha Curcas L

Indonesia memiliki banyak  tanah masam, tetapi penggunaan masih sangat sedikit karena kandungan nutrisi tanah masam rendah. Sementara itu, jarak pagar merupakan tanaman yang dapat tumbuh di berbagai jenis tanah (termasuk lahan marjinal) dan penggunaannya sebagai bahan baku biodiesel. Oleh karena itu, perlunya penelitian mengenai pertumbuhan jarak pagar pada tanah masam sebagai upaya untuk mengembangkan jarak pagar dan penggunaannya di Indonesia.Untuk memulai upaya, penelitian tentang berbagai genotipe jarak pagar di tanah masam telah dilakukan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini yaitu mempelajari genotipe jarak pagar  yang berpotensi untuk tanah masam. Penelitian ini dilakukan di UPTD Pengembangan Teknologi Lahan Kering Singabraja, Kecamatan Tenjo, Bogor, Jawa Barat, dari November 2010-Agustus 201. Penelitian ini menggunakan Rancangan Kelompok Lengkap Teracak (RKLT) dengan satu faktor yaitu genotipe. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan berbagai perbedaan pada pertumbuhan diantara genotipe-genotipe jarak pagar. Secara umum, ada lima genotipe jarak pagar yang terbaik di tanah masam (pH 5.0) yaitu Medan I-5-1, Dompu, IP-2P-3-4-1, Sulawesi, dan Bima M.

Abstract Use of body mass index (BMI) to assess the nutritional status of adolescents requires many resources, especially for country-level assessment. This study aimed to determine the relationship between BMI and mid upper arm circumference (MUAC) among adolescent males and females in India and to examine whether MUAC effectively represents the nutritional status of adolescents. The study utilized anthropometric measurement data collected by India’s National Family Health Survey-4 (2015–16). The weighted sample for analysis included 91,315 female and 14,893 male adolescents. The BMI and MUAC measurements showed a positive correlation in both female and male adolescents. Using BMI-for-age Z-score classifications, 12.7% of the adolescents were undernourished. Using MUAC (in cm) as per NACS (Nutrition Assessment, Counselling, and Support) guidelines and Mramba et al. (2017) classified 22.9% and 3.7% of the adolescents as undernourished respectively. Finally, using the MUAC-for-age Z-score classification, 98.4% of adolescents were determined to be normal and 1.7% undernourished. Sensitivity and specificity tests of the MUAC cut-offs, in comparison with BMI cut-offs, showed that all three MUAC cut-off classifications had high specificity (NACS cut-off: 81.3%; Mramba et al. cut-off (cm): 97.7%; Mramba et al. cut-off (Z-score): 99.1%). The NACS cut-off had moderately high sensitivity (52.2%) but the Mramba et al. cut-offs had low sensitivity (13.3% for the centimetre cut-off and 6.6% for the Z-score cut-off). Sensitivity and specificity tests proved the relationship between BMI and MUAC, and that MUAC represents adolescent nutritional status with considerable efficiency. With further research, it may be established that MUAC is a better and promising measure of adolescent nutrition, having the advantage of needing fewer resources for data collection. The MUAC has the potential to offer a simple and low-resource alternative to BMI to assess nutritional status among adolescents in poor countries.

The prevalence of dental caries and obesity is high as both raise significant health problems. The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between dental caries, the number of salivary colonies forming units of Mutans Streptococci (MS) and Lactobacillus (LB), and the nutritional status in a group of children from Transylvania. This observational study used a sample of 154 school children, aged 9 to 12 years. The prevalence of caries was measured using the decayed, missing, and filled teeth index for deciduous teeth (dmft index) and for permanent teeth (DMFT index). Height and weight were assessed for each subject, and their body mass index (BMI) percentile was calculated. Salivary levels of Mutans Streptococci (MS) and Lactobacillus (LB) were determined using the CRT Bacteria Test from Ivoclar Vivadent. In our study, we found a positive association between the BMI percentile, MS count, LB count, tooth brushing frequency, and the incidence of dental caries in children aged 9 to 12 years old. Future preventive programs should include nutrition control in order to prevent both the apparition of dental caries and obesity in children.
