Obesity is excessive body fat condition due to differences in energy consumption and expenditure. In Indonesia, the prevalence of obese women >18 years old is 32.9%. Interventions are performed with control eating and increased physical activity through an educational approach. A Leaflet is a print media containing some information, while my weight loss diet application is used by people that want to lose weight. Therefore, this study aims to determine the effect of nutritional education with leaflet and my weight loss diet application on nutritional status changes in obesity. True experimental design was used with pre-post test on female students divided into two groups in Universitas Brawijaya (n= 44) and selected by purposive sampling. Also, Independent-Samples T-Test and Mann Whitney analysis were conducted. The results showed a body mass index decrease in both media and no significant change related to BMI (p = 0.733). However, the decrease was more shown on the leaflet, where the body fat percentage had a significant change (p = 0.000). Hence, intervention using the leaflet is more effective on nutritional status changes related with BMI and body fat percentage in obese students.

Body mass index (BMI) is to monitor nutritional status adults, especially those related to deficiency and overweight. Body fat percentage can describe the risk of degenerative diseases.This study was conducted to measure the relationship between BMI and body fat percentage. Methods An analytical study was conducted to 41 male and 51 female participant from Universitas Teuku Umar. The body weight was measured using scales, whereas the body height was measured using microtoise. The body fat percentage was measured using Karada Scan. The BMI was calculated by dividing the body weight in kilogram divided by body height in meter square. Data was collected from 16-18th February 2021 and analyzed by Pearson’s correlation test. The results showed BMI underweight, normal, and overweight were 10,9, 57,6, and 31,5. High body fat percentage in men were 75,6% and in women were 35,5%. There is a relationship between the nutritional status of the women group and the body fat percentage with p-value is obtained = 0.021. Furthermore, for men, there is no relationship between nutritional status in the men group and the body fat percentage. There is a relationship between nutritional status and body fat percentage in women. Among this population, BMI can still be used to determine body fat percentage

Background Obesity can occur due to the accumulation of excess fat in the body.Obesity has been declared as a global epidemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). In 2016, more than 1,9 billions adults were overweight. In 2018, it was found that 24,1% of adults in Riau Province were obese with an incidence higher in women than men. Research Objectives This research is an analytical study to determine the comparison of nutritional status based on the data that has been collected from body mass index (BMI) measurement and body fat percentage measurement by DXA Scan, which was carried out on 364 adults aged 19-65 years. Metodology The data that has been obtained from BMI measurement will be grouped to four categories and the data that has been obtained from body fat percentage will be grouped to five categories based on their gender. The bivariate analysis using paired T Test will be done to see the p value. Conclusion From this study, it was found that most of the  subjects were obese. According to the BMI examination, about 50,27% of the subjects were  categorized as obese. Meanwhile, according to the body fat percentage measurement using DXA Scan, about 89,56% of subjects were included in the obese category. Based on the p value of 0,001 that obtained from the paired t test, it can be concluded that there are significant differences between these two methods.   Keywords : BMI, DXA Scan, nutritional status, obese

AbstractBackground: The menstrual cycle can be said to be normal if the interval is between 21-35 days. The prevalence rates associated with menstrual cycle disorders were found in the range of 15.8-89.5. Nutritional status is one of the factors that cause menstrual cycle disorders, where nutritional status can be determined using body mass index and measuring the percentage of fat in the body. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between nutritional status and the menstrual cycle using the literature review method. The formulation of the problem in this research is determined by PICO, namely: "is there a relationship between nutritional status and menstrual cycle disorders?". A total of 749 literary works obtained from the Google Scholar, Science Direct, PubMed and ProQuest databases were used as a literature review source, where in screening the literature the inclusion and exclusion criteria were seen, which had previously been determined so that finally six literatures were reviewed. Results: The cause of menstrual cycle disorders has been found in adolescents with an average value of 18.4-37.8 and the percentage of body fat between 12.80-34.80. Conclusion: Based on all literature that has been reviewed, it can be concluded that menstrual cycle disorders have a significant relationship with body mass index and body fat percentage.

 The role of nutrition in the life cycle is very important. If there is a problem with malnutrition, this is a sign that you are at risk of suffering from chronic disease. Measurement of nutritional status and body fat percentage is important as an initial screening to prevent the risk of chronic disease. This study aims to describe the performance of the nutritional status and body fat percentage of new student STIKes Baiturrahim 2020. This study used a cross-sectional study. The research was conducted at STIKes Baiturrahim Jambi in September 2019. The number of respondents was 148 people. The data used are the characteristics of the respondents (age, sex, body weight, and height) and the percent of body fat obtained from measurement of Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA). The results showed that most of them had normal nutritional status (64,2%) and body fat percentage was classified as normal (41,9%). It is recommended that students maintain normal nutritional status and body fat percentage and also always monitoring the body weight to prevent chronic disease

ABSTRACT Introduction: Aerobic exercise has begun to be widely recognized as a reasonable means of preventing fat and losing weight. Scholars have confirmed that sports can help the human body lose weight and lose fat. Objective: This article measures the exercise performance indicators of subjects in different body fat percentage groups and studies the relationship between body fat percentage and exercise performance indicators. Methods: The study uses experimental methods to determine the percentage of body fat of the subjects. After physical exercise and aerobic exercise, the volunteers were tested for aerobic capacity indicators. Results: The body fat percentage of physically inactive persons was negatively correlated with aerobic and anaerobic exercise capacity indexes. Conclusion: The mechanism of aerobic exercise in weight loss treatment has the effect of promoting lipolysis and regulating blood lipid metabolism. At the same time, it has a significant influence on the number and activity of fat cells. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment results.

Introduction: Malnutrition is a factor that defines vital prognosis in chronic heart failure. Objective: This study investigated nutritional and metabolic disorders in patients with heart failure by examining the association of severity of heart failure with inflammatory cytokines, appetite-regulating hormones, and energy metabolism. Methods: Subjects were 50 patients with heart failure. On admission, nutritional status was assessed, and biochemical blood tests were performed, including for serum tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6, ghrelin, and leptin levels. Resting energy expenditure (REE) was also measured by indirect calorimetry to examine its association with severity of heart failure and levels of inflammatory cytokines and appetite-regulating hormones. Results: There were significant associations between serum brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) level and nutrition indices, indicating that nutritional status was worse when heart failure was more severe. Inflammatory cytokine levels showed significant positive correlations with BNP level. Measured REE/bodyweight was not associated with severity of heart failure, but was negatively correlated with body fat percentage and leptin levels. Conclusions: Energy metabolism was not associated with serum BNP level among patients with heart failure with New York Heart Association functional class up to III. Body fat percentage and leptin levels may be a good predictor of energy metabolism in patients with heart failure.
