“…Obesitas merupakan suatu fenomena yang meluas di seluruh dunia dan menjadi suatu penyakit pendemi global (Mohajan & Mohajan, 2023;Munir et al, 2023). Bahkan fenomena obesitas selalu meningkat prevalensinya dihampir semua negara dan merupakan faktor risiko penting bagi kesehatan dan kematian yang buruk (Bodnar et al, 2016;Boggs et al, 2011).…”

Obesitas merupakan masalah kesehatan serius yang dapat meningkatkan risiko berbagai penyakit kronis, seperti diabetes dan penyakit jantung. Mengadopsi gaya hidup sehat melalui pola makan seimbang dan aktivitas fisik teratur sangat penting untuk mencegah dan mengatasi obesitas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyelidiki perpaduan High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) dan Moderate Intensity Continuous Training (MICT) dalam penurunan obesitas. Penelitian ini menggunakan rancangan berupa randomized group pre-test and post-test design untuk mengevaluasi efek dari dua metode latihan yang berbeda, yaitu High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) dan Moderate Intensity Continuous Training (MICT), dibandingkan dengan latihan Low Intensity pada berat badan dan komposisi tubuh. Sebanyak 20 orang peserta penelitian dibagi menjadi dua kelompok, yakni kelompok intervensi yang menjalani HIIT dan MICT, serta kelompok kontrol yang menjalani latihan Low Intensity (LI). Hasil penelitian yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa tidak adanya perbedaan yang signifikan dalam berat badan awal, berat badan akhir, lemak tubuh awal, dan lemak tubuh akhir antara kedua kelompok. Temuan ini dapat memberikan wawasan bagi perancangan program latihan dan intervensi obesitas, menunjukkan bahwa metode-latihan berbeda mungkin tidak selalu menghasilkan perbedaan yang signifikan pada berat badan dan komposisi tubuh. Diperlukan penelitian lebih lanjut untuk memahami faktor-faktor yang mungkin mempengaruhi respons individu terhadap berbagai jenis latihan.

“…The prevalence of obesity has been increasing rapidly worldwide due to changes in lifestyle and diet. Obesity is considered as a typical metabolic syndrome characterized by systemic low-grade chronic inflammation (1). The close interactions between obesity and the gut microbiota and immunity (2) have recently been revealed, but the underlying mechanism has not yet been fully elucidated.…”

Intestinal tuft cells (TCs) are defined as chemosensory cells that can “taste” danger and induce immune responses. They play a critical role in gastrointestinal parasite invasion, inflammatory bowel diseases and high-fat diet-induced obesity. Intestinal IL-25, the unique product of TCs, is a key activator of type 2 immunity, especially to promote group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) to secret IL-13. Then the IL-13 mainly promotes intestinal stem cell (ISCs) proliferation into TCs and goblet cells. This pathway formulates the circuit in the intestine. This paper focuses on the potential role of the intestinal TC, ILC2 and their circuit in obesity-induced intestinal damage, and discussion on further study and the potential therapeutic target in obesity.

“…By the year 2025, it is anticipated that the worldwide prevalence of obesity will reach 18% among men and exceed 21% among women. Additionally, the prevalence of severe obesity is projected to surpass 6% for men and 9% for women [ 2 ]. Between 1980 and 2015, excess body weight has been linked to more than 4 million deaths worldwide [ 3 ].…”

Background Many smartphone apps designed to assist individuals in managing their weight are accessible, but the assessment of app quality and features has predominantly taken place in Western countries. Nevertheless, there is a scarcity of research evaluating weight management apps in China, which highlights the need for further investigation in this area. Objective This study aims to conduct a comprehensive search for the most popular commercial Chinese smartphone apps focused on weight management and assess their quality, behavior change techniques (BCTs), and content-related features using appropriate evaluation scales. Additionally, the study sought to investigate the associations between the quality of various domains within weight management apps and the number of incorporated BCTs and app features. Methods In April 2023, data on weight management apps from the iOS and Android app stores were downloaded from the Qimai Data platform. Subsequently, a total of 35 weight management apps were subjected to screening and analysis by 2 researchers. The features and quality of the apps were independently assessed by 6 professionals specializing in nutrition management and health behavioral change using the Mobile Application Rating Scale (MARS). Two registered dietitians, who had experience in app development and coding BCTs, applied the established 26-item BCT taxonomy to verify the presence of BCTs. Mean (SD) scores and their distributions were calculated for each section and item. Spearman correlations were used to assess the relationship between an app’s quality and its technical features, as well as the number of incorporated BCTs. Results The data set included a total of 35 apps, with 8 available in the Android Store, 10 in the Apple Store, and 17 in both. The overall quality, with a mean MARS score of 3.44 (SD 0.44), showed that functionality was the highest scoring domain (mean 4.18, SD 0.37), followed by aesthetics (mean 3.43, SD 0.42), engagement (mean 3.26, SD 0.64), and information (mean 2.91, SD 0.52), which had the lowest score. The mean number of BCTs in the analyzed apps was 9.17 (range 2-18 BCTs/app). The most common BCTs were “prompt review of behavioral goals” and “provide instruction,” present in 31 apps (89%). This was followed by “prompt self-monitoring of behavior” in 30 apps (86%), “prompt specific goal setting” in 29 apps (83%), and “provide feedback on performance” in 27 apps (77%). The most prevalent features in the analyzed apps were the need for web access (35/35, 100%), monitoring/tracking (30/35, 86%), goal setting (29/35, 83%), and sending alerts (28/35, 80%). The study also revealed strong positive correlations among the number of BCTs incorporated, app quality, and app features. This suggests that apps with a higher number of BCTs tend to have better overall quality and more features. Conclusions The study found that the overall quality of weight management apps in China is moderate, with a particular weakness in the quality of information provided. The most prevalent BCTs in these apps were reviewing behavioral goals, providing guidance, self-monitoring of behavior, goal setting, and offering performance feedback. The most common features were the need for web access, monitoring and tracking, goal setting, and sending alerts. Notably, higher-quality weight management apps in China tended to incorporate more BCTs and features. These findings can be valuable for developers looking to improve weight management apps and enhance their potential to drive behavioral change in weight management.
