Obesity is a condition that can increase the risk of some diseases such as reduced brain capacity, dyspnea, skin irritation, hypertension, and diabetes. Proper treatment is needed to overcome the problems of obesity. The objective of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of Yoga, fast of Dawood, Green Tea, and Apple juice to suppressor PPAR-γ gene activity, C / EBPα, and SREBP-c to manage obesity in adolescents. The method used in this study was a literature review from journal publications through the database ScienceDirect, PUBMED, and google scholar, and the criteria were Indonesian and English with a range of publication years 2014-2019. Nine main articles were used as references in this study. These articles proved that yoga therapy could maintain the balance and health of the physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions, and Fast of Dawood can limit the amount of calorie intake at a particular time. Moreover, by consuming green tea as a source of polyphenol derivatives and apples with high of flavanol, anthocyanidin, dihydrochalcones, and hydroxycinnamic acid could decrease adolescents' body weight. Yoga and Fast of Dawood exercise can reduce adipogenesis and induce reverse cholesterol transport, cellular cholesterol released, reduced pro-inflammatory cytokines dan decreased the incidence of obesity.
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) becomes a health crisis in the world. The main route of spreading COVID-19 is through the respiratory tract, but this virus also spread through extra respiratory route. This literature review aimed to describe the ocular transmission as an alternative route of COVID-19 transmission. This literature review study used sources of article obtained through ProQuest, Springer, ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Google Scholar with range 2019-2020 publication years and were traced using a combination of search term for ocular transmission, virus receptor, eye manifestation and COVID-19. Previous research used Experimental design, Case study, and Cross-sectional study, and published from 2019 to 2020. Then analyzed by PRISMA diagram method with four stages starting from identification, screening, eligibility, and included. 4 articles used Experimental study design, 4 articles used Cross-sectional study design, and 2 articles used case study design. This study showed that COVID-19 RNA was found on ocular (conjunctiva and cornea) in a low percentage (2.23%-24%). Patients with confirmed COVID-19 could have ocular manifestations. COVID-19 enter the human body through the eye by spike protein binds to eye receptors that are: ACE2, CD147/Basigin/EMMPRIN, TMPRSS2, ANPEP and AGTR2. Then this virus transferred to the respiratory tract through the nasolacrimal duct. The study showed that ocular transmission can be an alternative route of COVID-19 transmission even with a low percentage level, so it is important for health worker to wear eye protector.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
