Indonesia has an increasing number of obese people every year. Risk factors and complications caused by obesity can increase morbidity and mortality in the community. One of factors causing the increasing number of obese people is caused by the decreasing level of physical activities done by Indonesian people.This study aims to determine the effect of physical activity levels on the risk of obesity. The study used an observational analytic case control design. Subjects were chosen through a purposive sampling method. The population was young adults in Surabaya. The sample of the study included 97 obese adults and 97 non-obese adults. The study was conducted in March - July 2018 in South Surabaya through distributing questionnaires to two groups. The questionnaire given used the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ). The results showed that physical activity performed by adult age group of obesity was mostly classified as low activity (59,8%), while non-obese adult age group was mostly included in medium activity (56,6%).This shows a significant difference in physical activity between obese and non-obese groups (p=0,047). It can be concluded that decreased levels of physical activity may increase the risk of obesity in adult.
AbstrakJumlah perokok di Indonesia makin meningkat setiap tahunnya hingga mencapai hampir 40% dari total penduduk. Terapi antioksidan dapat menurunkan radikal bebas akibat asap rokok yang dapat menyebabkan kerusakan dan kematian sel dalam tubuh. Antioksidan superoxide dismutase ekstrak melon dengan kombinasi gliadin berpotensi menurunkan radikal bebas dengan menurunkan malondialdehyde (MDA) dalam darah. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui efektivitas suplemen superoxide dismutase-gliadin (SOD-gliadin) dalam menurunkan kadar MDA akibat paparan asap rokok terhadap tikus Wistar. Penelitian menggunakan metode ekperimental dengan post-test control group design di Laboratorium Fakultas Kedokteran, Universitas Airlangga. Pemberian suplemen SODgliadin dengan paparan asap rokok dua batang per hari dilakukan selama 28 hari (5 April 2016 sampai 12 Mei 2016) dengan menggunakan kelompok kontrol negatif, kelompok kontrol positif, dan tiga kelompok perlakuan dengan dosis ekstrak melon yang berbeda. Selanjutnya, pengukuran kadar MDA dilakukan dengan mengambil serum darah pada semua kelompok. Hasil penelitian, suplemen SOD-gliadin berpengaruh terhadap penurunan kadar MDA serum (ANOVA, p=0,000). Uji least significant difference (LSD) menunjukkan kelima kelompok memberikan hasil yang signifikan terhadap penurunan kadar MDA pada tikus Wistar yang terpapar asap rokok (p<0,05). Penurunan kadar MDA terendah terjadi pada dosis ketiga dibanding dengan dosis SOD-gliadin lainnya. Simpulan, pemberian suplemen SOD-gliadin dapat mengurangi radikal bebas akibat paparan asap rokok.Kata kunci: Antioksidan, malondialdehyde, radikal bebas, rokok, superoxide dismutase Effectiveness Decrease Combined with Supplements Malondialdehyde Antioxidant Superoxide Dismutase Gliadin Melon with Due to Exposure to Cigarette AbstractThe number of smokers in Indonesia was increasing every year to reach nearly 40% of the total population. Antioxidants superoxide dismutase of melon extract able to reduce free radicals in the body. The decrease of free radicals in the body can be measured from malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in the blood. This research aims to determine the effectiveness of melon extract for lowering malondyaldehyde level of cigarette smoke exposure on Wistar rats. Research using experimental methods with posttest control group design in Laboratory Medical Faculty, Airlangga University. Melon extract intake with exposure two cigarettes per day for 28 days (5 April 2016 until 12 May 2016) was done by using a negative control group, positive control group and 3 groups experiment with different doses of melon extract. The measurement of MDA level done by taking a blood serum in all groups after 28 days. The results showed SOD-gliadin effect of decreased levels of serum MDA (ANOVA, p=0.000). Least significant difference (LSD) test showed all groups significant results to decreased levels of MDA in Wistar rats were exposed to smoke (p<0.05). The third dose was decreased levels of MDA lowest compared to other doses of SOD-gliadin. The conclusion of the rese...
Introduction: Construction workers tend to be exposed to air pollution which reduces lung function. Vitamin D is a factor that is closely related to a person's lifestyle. Including physical activity can improve lung function and vitamin D. Aim of study: This study aims to determine the profile of vitamin D, physical activity, and lung health in builders. Method: This research was conducted in September 2018-January 2019, which is located in East Surabaya. This study used a data collection technique with a questionnaire to measure vitamin D status and physical activity. Meanwhile, the measurement of lung function is by measuring the value of the FEV1 / FVC (forced expiratory volume in the first one second to the forced vital capacity) ratio using spirometry. The research sample was a pedicab driver without respiratory problems. The data analysis used is descriptive using profiles of vitamin D status, physical activity, and lung function conditions. Results and discussion: The majority of respondents experienced vitamin D deficiency as many as 120 people (75.95%). Most of the respondents also had heavy physical activity (48.73%). Meanwhile, regarding lung health, as many as 50% of people do not have lung function disorders, and some have mild (37.34%) and severe (12.66%) lung disorders. Conclusion: Construction workers are at risk for vitamin D deficiency and pulmonary function disorders, despite having a heavy level of physical activity.
