Background: Weight (Wt) and height (Ht) can be estimated by using mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) and ulna length (UL). The formula for estimating Wt and Ht that has been formulated is mostly using subjects not Asian especially Indonesian.Objectives : derived linear regression equations to estimate Wt and Ht from MUAC and UL for Indonesian adultsMethods : The study design was cross sectional study. Population of this study was student of Health Science and Nursing Faculty Ngudi Waluyo University. The sample consisted of 303 students 19-29 years old. Research instruments were digital weight scale, microtoise, and metline. Correlation was tested using Pearson analysis. Linear regression equations was derived from linear regression analysis.Results: Wt estimation was significantly correlated with Wt (r=0.917, p<0.0001). Ht estimation was significantly correlated with Ht (r= 0.812, p<0.0001). Estimation Wt = 2.863 MUAC (cm) – 4.019 sex -14.533 (R2=0.84, SEE=4.90). Estimation Ht = 2.525 UL (cm) – 5.828 sex + 99.384 (R2=0.66, SEE=3.92). Male=0, female = 1.Conclusion: The regression equations can be used as alternative to estimate Wt and Ht from MUAC and UL for Indonesian adults.
Complementary feeding is used for infants aged 6-24 months to meet nutritional needs other than breast milk. The addition of local food ingredients could increase the nutritional value of instant baby porridge, such as red beans and oyster mushrooms, as a source of protein and fiber. This study was conducted to evaluate instant porridge preference and nutritional contents with red beans and oyster mushrooms. Quasi-experiment completely randomized method was used in this study. There were 3 formulations of porridge based on the composition of rice flour and red bean (60:40, 70:30, and 80:20). All formulas were added with 1 gram of dry oyster mushrooms. Based on an organoleptic test conducted by 25 infant mothers, the ratio of 70:30 was the best formula. This formula contained 39.2 grams of carbohydrates, protein 6.1 grams, 1 gram of fat, and 1.1 grams of fiber per serving. Instant porridge formula 2 fulfils the nutritional needs of infants aged 6-12 months of carbohydrates, protein, fat and fiber, respectively 37.3%, 40.1%, 2.9%, and 10%.
Detection of cancer can be done with breast self-examination or known as BSE. Breast self-examination (BSE) is an easy examination that every woman can do and can be done on her own. This action is important because almost 85% of abnormalities in the breast are actually found for the first time by the patient through a proper breast self-examination. This community service activity aims to increase students' motivation to carry out breast self-examination. The activity of providing information about breast self-examination was carried out at SMK Harapan Mulya Brangsong. The number of students who participated in the activity was 40 students. The results of the pretest showed that most of the students had less knowledge about breast self-examination as much as 25%. The results of the posttest showed that most of the students had knowledge in the good category of 45%. Socialization of the practice of breast self-examination is very important, so it is necessary to conduct health education about breast self-examination. Suggestions to the Harapan Mulya Vocational School to cooperate with the health workers so that they can provide continuous health problem counseling to the students of Harapan Mulya Brangsong Vocational School.ABSTRAKDeteksi kanker dapat dilakukan dengan pemeriksaan payudara sendiri atau yang dikenal dengan SADARI.

Background: In diabetes mellitus patients, one of the efforts to control normal blood glucose levels is to eat low glycemic index foods. Rice is an Indonesian staple food that contains carbohydrates. Several methods of processing could affect the glycemic index of rice. Objectives: To analyze the glycemic index of rice processed by several methods. Methods: The design used was quasi-experimental. A total of ten people with criteria of healthy, aged 19-29 years, having normal body mass index and blood glucose levels were used in this study. Subjects were given five treatments. Treatment: 1) was given glucose as a reference, 2) was given rice that was traditionally processed and just cooked, 3) was given rice that was traditionally processed and had been stored at room temperature (25°C) for 12 hours, 4) was given rice that was electronically processed and just cooked, and 5) was given rice that was processed in a modern way and had been stored for 12 hours in magic com at hot temperature. Among the treatments, there was a gap of 7 days. Results: Traditionally processed rice has a glycemic index of 21.6, increasing to 24.7 after being stored at room temperature for 12 hours. Meanwhile, processed electronic rice has a glycemic index of 22.9 and increases to 36,4 after being stored in a rice cooker (hot temperature) for 12 hours. Conclusions: The four rice groups processed by various methods had low glycemic index values. Rice stored for 12 hours had a higher glycemic index value than freshly cooked rice.
Background : Healthy physical condition will support the optimal productivity. Hypertension is a non-communicable disease which is one of the problems in public health in Indonesia. Hypertension can cause an increase in morbidity and mortality rates, as well as decrease the economy and work productivity. Objective : To identify determinants of the hypertension in the workforce at PTPN IX Ngobo, Karangjati, Semarang Regency. Methods : This research is an analytical research with cross-sectional approach. There were 75 people as samples with age range of 18-57 years old taken by consecutive sampling method. Blood pressure was measured using a digital tensimeter. Nutritional status was determined based on Body Mass Index (BMI). Body fat percentage and visceral fat were measured with Bio Impedance Analysis (BIA) tool. Data on intake adequacy were collected by conducting interviews using the Semi Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQFFQ). Other variables were work load, work shift, number of family members who were dependent, economic status and smoking behavior. Data analysis was performed using multivariate logistic regression test. Results : 70.7% of the subjects were male. 60% of subjects had hypertension. The mean age of the subjects was 41.44 years, most of which fall into the category of late adulthood (64%). There are two factors that mostly influence the hypertension, which are gender (male) and smoking behavior that can be used to predict the hypertension. The probability of a worker who smokes and is male to suffer hypertension is 68.5%.
In order to support the government's efforts to provide quality health services to adolescents, especially young women, it is necessary to involve health educators to conduct education about Increasing Knowledge about Adolescent Reproductive Health with the Teleconference Method. Problems during menstruation are not only related to cleanliness but also about the emergence of health problems during menstruation. Education on Increasing Knowledge about Adolescent Reproductive Health with the Teleconference Method needs to be given to young women who are still in school. Schools that can be used as partners in this effort include schools whose students are mostly female so that the education that will be provided is right on target. Based on the survey, it is known that students at the Nahdlatul Ulama Vocational School have never received education about Increasing Knowledge about Adolescent Reproductive Health with the Teleconference Method. The implementation of this community service activity is carried out by providing education to Nahdlatul Ulama Vocational High School students online using a zoom meeting platform. The percentage of evaluation results before being given education was in the category of not understanding as much as 13.88%, quite understanding 21.82%, good understanding 56.71% and very good 7.59%. The understanding of female students has increased after being given education, which is included in the very good category by 28.82%, good 53.94%, sufficient 7.82% and less as much as 9.42%. Thus it is known that after being given education there is an increase in students' understanding of Adolescent Reproductive Health. Based on statistical analysis (Wilcoxon test) obtained a significance value of 0.002 < 0.05, which means that there is a significant difference in the level of knowledge between before and after education.
