Abstract. Hypertension is a condition in which a person has blood pressure above normal. In the group of workers this can be influenced by the duration of work, work period, and fatigue level. The purpose of this study was to assess the description of hypertension based on duration, length of service and level of fatigue in agency workers at PT X Cikarang Bekasi. The method in this study was a descriptive study with a cross-sectional design by taking data from a questionnaire. The research was conducted from December 2021 to February 2022. The number of samples in this study were 61 people. Based on the results of the questionnaire 39% were positive for hypertension and 61% were not hypertensive. Workers with hypertension are known to have a working duration of ≤ 8 hours by 96%, > 8 hours by 4%, working period 1–5 years by 50%, > 5–10 years by 46%, >10 years by 4%, moderate fatigue level by 46%, light fatigue 42%, and severe fatigue 3%. Workers with hypertension were more experienced by workers with working duration ≤ 8 hours, namely 23 people (96%), then workers with 1-5 years of service were 12 people (50%), and workers with moderate levels of fatigue were 11 people (46 %).

Abstract. The government is trying to switch learning methods to online as to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS), also known as Digital Eye Strain (DES) emits a blue light spectrum that indirectly disrupts circadian rhythms, disrupting sleep quality. This study aims to analyze differences in sleep quality between students of the Faculty of Medicine at the Islamic University of Bandung class of 2019 who experienced and did not experience Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) during the COVID-19 pandemic period. This study is an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design using a comparative study approach. The sample for this research was 95 people using a random sampling technique in Unisba Faculty of Medicine students class of 2019 from June–December 2022. The data for the study were obtained by filling out the Computer Vision Syndrome Questionnaire (CVS-Q) and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaires. Data analysis used the chi-square test to compare the two categorical groups. The results of this study showed that 82% of subjects did not experience CVS, while those who experienced CVS were 18%, and the percentage of poor sleep quality was 64%, while 36% had good sleep quality. The statistical test results obtained a value of p = 0.005 which showed that there was a significant difference in sleep quality between those who experienced and those who did not experience Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS in students of the Faculty of Medicine, Bandung Islamic University Class of 2019). Abstrak. Pemerintah mengupayakan peralihan metode pembelajaran menjadi daring sebagai pencegahan penyebaran COVID-19. Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS), dikenal juga sebagai Digital Eye Strain (DES) memancarkan blue light spectrum secara tidak langsung mengganggu irama sirkadian yang berakibat gangguan pada kualitas tidur. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis perbedaan kualitas tidur antara mahasiswa Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Islam Bandung Angkatan 2019 yang mengalami dan yang tidak mengalami Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) selama masa pandemi COVID-19. Penelitian ini adalah analitik observasional dengan desain cross-sectional menggunakan pendekatan komparatif studi. Sampel penelitian ini adalah 95 orang dengan teknik random sampling pada mahasiswa FK Unisba angkatan 2019 selama bulan Juni–Desember 2022. Data penelitian ini diperoleh dengan pengisian kuesioner Computer Vision Syndrome Questionnaire (CVS-Q) dan Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Analisis data menggunakan uji chi-square untuk membandingkan kedua kelompok kategorik. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan subjek yang tidak mengalami CVS sebanyak 82% sedangkan yang mengalami CVS sebanyak 18% dan persentase kualitas tidur buruk sebanyak 64% sedangkan kualitas tidur baik sebanyak 36%. Hasil uji statistika didapatkan nilai p=0,005 yang menunjukkan terdapat perbedaan bermakna kualitas tidur antara yang mengalami dan yang tidak mengalami Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS pada mahasiswa Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Islam Bandung Angkatan 2019).

BACKGROUND The existence of obesity paradox’s been proposed this past decade, suggesting obese individuals may have survival benefit when there"s acute cardiovascular decompensation or congestive heart failure. Adiponectin, a residual protein from fat, has a cardioprotective role against inflammation. PURPOSE : In this study, we look at mitral valve stenosis (MS), an inflammatory result of rheumatic heart disease (RHD), to determine the relationship between BMI (body mass index) and degree of MS. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted over 463 medical records from RHD patients at a Heart Service Installation. Anthropometric and echocardiography results were taken and analysed statistically. Mitral valve area (MVA) was calculated using planimetry method and classified based on EAE/ASE guideline. RESULTS Based on BMI criteria (WHO Asia Pacific), the underweight, normal, overweight, and obese percentage of all patients are 16.8%, 46.7%, 15.1%, and 21.4% respectively. Most patients have normal BMI in all stenosis degree. Categorically, the relationship between BMI and MS degree is insignificant (p > 0.05). Meanwhile, the median of MVA in the obese group shows the greatest (1.0 vs 0.79, 0.86, and 0.90 ; p value <0.05). A post-hoc analysis carried out and shows significant difference among MVA value in underweight to obese patients (p < 0.05) and also in normal to obese patients (p < 0.05) CONCLUSION Significant relationship of MVA value in RHD patients according to BMI is noted with greater median of MVA in obese group. This may provide evidence of the obesity paradox in RHD patients with mitral stenosis. Abstract Table 1 Abstract Table 2
