Cardiometabolic Risks

The Japanese Food Guide Spinning Top (JFGST) indicates optimal intake of five food groups (grain, fish and meat, vegetables, milk, and fruits) and sugar and confectionaries. We aimed to investigate whether adherence to the JFGST in 8th grade junior high school students (n = 3162) was associated with cardiometabolic risks and how different scorings of the JFGST influenced the associations. Metabolic risks were assessed from anthropometrics, blood pressure measurements, and blood glucose and lipid profile measurements. Three types of scoring adherent to the JFGST were analyzed (10 points were given for each item with optimal intake; range: 0–60): the original scoring (ORG scoring); first modified scoring, which had no upper limits for vegetables and fruits (MOD1 scoring); and MOD2 scoring without upper limits for five dishes (MOD2 scoring). The MOD2 scoring was positively associated with dietary fiber, potassium, calcium, and vitamins. All types of scorings were associated with low glucose levels (p ≤ 0.001); the MOD2 scoring was associated with low systolic blood pressure (p = 0.001) and low cardiometabolic risk (p = 0.003). Our findings suggest that Japanese adolescents adherent to the JFGST had low cardiometabolic risks and should not fall below lower limits for intake of the abovementioned five food groups.

Home Cooking

This study aimed to investigate the association between the frequency of home cooking and cardiovascular disease risk among Japanese adolescents. We used cross-sectional data on adolescents from the 2018 Adachi Child Health Impact of Living Difficulty study, which targeted junior high school students aged 13–14 years in Adachi, Tokyo, Japan. Frequency of home cooking by 553 caregivers was assessed via questionnaire and classified as high (almost daily), medium (4–5 days/week), or low (≤3 days/week). Cardiovascular disease risk factors included blood pressure, serum cholesterol (total, LDL, and HDL), hemoglobin A1c, and body mass index. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that adolescents exposed to a low frequency of home cooking showed higher diastolic blood pressure (β = 3.59, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.42 to 6.75) and lower HDL cholesterol (β = −6.15, 95% CI: −11.2 to −1.07) than those exposed to a high frequency of home cooking, adjusting for adolescents’ sex, household income, and parental comorbidity. Future studies are needed to clarify the causal relationship and mechanisms through which home cooking influences adolescents’ cardiovascular health.

Abstract:Glucosuria is the condition when glucose excreted into the urine. Supposedly urine does not contain glucose, because renal filtration will absorb glucose back into the blood circulation. One of the factors that could cause glucosuri is obesity. When plasma glucose level in obese adolescents still in normal range, it would not lead to the secretion of glucose in urine. Otherwise, if the plasma glucose levels are higher than normal, kidneys cannot be longer resist the renal threshold value for glucose (180 g/day) and there will be a partial excretion of glucose in urine.This study aimed to look the glucose urine level in children, obese and non-obese, at St. Rafael junior high school students Manado. This study was held on September to December 2014. This was a descriptive study with cross-sectional design. Samples were 100 teenagers that met the inclusion criteria who had nutritional status of obese and normal weight, and were willing to become respondents. The results showed that glucose in the urine of 100 samples wich divided into 50 samples of obese and 50 samples of non-obese were negative in both groups. Conclusion: There was no correlation between obesity and glucosuria in obese teenagers since their urine glucose levels did not reach the kidney treshold.Keywords: glucosuria , obesity , normal weight.Abstrak: Glukosuria adalah ekskresi glukosa ke dalam urin. Seharusnya dalamurin tidak mengandung glukosa, karena ginjal akan menyerap glukosa hasil filtrasi kembali ke dalam sirkulasi darah. Salah satu faktor yang dapat menyebabkan glukosuri adalah obesitas. Padaremajadengan obesitas apabilakadar gula plasma masih dalam keadaan normal maka tidak akan menyebabkan terjadinya sekresi glukosa dalam urin. Sebaliknya, bila obesitas dengan kadar glukosa plasma lebih dari normal sehingga ginjal tidak bisa lagi menahan nilai ambang batas ginjal untuk glukosa (180 g/hari) maka akan terjadi eksresi sebagian glukosa melalui urin. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat adakah glukosa dalam urin pada anak remaja obes dan tidak obes pada siswa-siswi SLTP St.Rafael Manado. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada bulan September-Desember 2014. Jenis penelitian bersifat deskriptif dengan rancangan potong lintang. Sampel penelitian sebanyak 100 orang sesuai dengan kriteria inklusi yaitu remaja, memiliki status gizi obesitas dan berat badan normal, dan bersedia menjadi responden. Hasil pemeriksaan glukosa dalam urin pada 100 sampel yang terbagi dalam 50 sampel obes dan 50 sampel tidak obes adalah negatif. Simpulan: Tidak terdapat hubungan antara obesitas dengan glukosuria pada remaja obes yang belum mencapai ambang batas ginjal.Kata kunci: glukosuri, obesitas, berat badan normal.

Self Worth

In this study, the authors investigated the attitudes of Japanese junior high school students towards studying English from the perspective of the Self-worth Theory. A total of 383 students aged 12 to 15 years participated in the qualitative study. Students were required to write three essays about how they would react under hypothetical circumstances in which their feelings of self-worth might be threatened. The contents of the students’ essays were analysed and matched with mechanisms within the quadrants of Covington’s Quadripolar Model of Achievement Motivation. Overall, the results suggested that the adolescents appeared to show traits of low defensive pessimism, high self-handicapping, and high helplessness, placing the students on the borderline of the Self-protectors and the Failure Acceptors. Reasons for the findings and pedagogical implications will be discussed.
