Abstract (sommario):
ABSTRACT Introduction: Adolescence is characterized as a phase of intense development of the skeletal system. Maximizing bone mass acquisition during adolescence may reduce the risk of bone fractures later in life. Objectives: To analyze bone mineral density (BMD) and its relation to nutritional status and serum vitamin D in adolescents with excess weight. Methods: This is a cross-sectional, exploratory study. Data from 102 adolescents with excess weight, of both sexes, were analyzed. The following indices were evaluated: body mass index (BMI), abdominal circumference (AC), intake of micronutrients (vitamin D, calcium, magnesium and phosphorus), serum 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (25(OH)D concentration, BMD of the proximal femur, lumbar spine (L1-L4) and total body, % body fat mass (% BFM), total BFM, total body lean mass (BLM), body fat mass (BFMI) and lean mass (BLMI). Results: The male adolescents (n=53) had higher values for weight, height, AC, BLM and BLMI, while the females (n=49) had higher % BFM. The majority were obese (53.9%) and had a BMD within the normal range for all evaluation sites. Of the 84 adolescents (n=84) with laboratory examination of 25OHD, 33.3% presented values considered insufficient or deficient. Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the most important independent predictor of BMD for the girls was BLMI, regardless the evaluation site. For boys, in addition to BLMI, BMI-Z of the proximal femur (neck of the femur and total) was also was a determinant variable for BMD. Conclusion: In this sample of adolescents, BLMI was a positive predictor of BMD in both sexes; and BMI-Z was a positive predictor only in proximal femur in the boys.

Abstract (sommario):
This study took a multi-analytical approach including group differences, correlations and unit-weighed directional z-score comparisons to identify the key mediators of bone health. A total of 190 participants (18–80 years) were categorized by body fat%, body mass index (BMI) and fat mass index (FMI) to examine the effect of differing obesity criteria on bone characteristics. A subset of 50 healthy-eating middle-to-older aged adults (44–80 years) was randomly selected to examine any added impact of lifestyle and inflammatory profiles. Diet was assessed using a 3-day food diary, bone mineral density (BMD) and content (BMC) by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry in the lumbar, thoracic, (upper and lower) appendicular and pelvic areas. Physical activity was assessed using the Baecke questionnaire, and endocrine profiling was assessed using multiplex luminometry. Obesity, classed via BMI, positively affected 20 out of 22 BMC- and BMD-related outcome measures, whereas FMI was associated with 14 outcome measures and adiposity only modulated nine out of 22 BMC- and BMD-related outcome measures. Whilst bivariate correlations only linked vitamin A and relative protein intake with BMD, the Z-score composite summary presented a significantly different overall dietary quality between healthy and osteopenic individuals. In addition, bivariate correlations from the subset revealed daily energy intake, sport-based physical activity and BMI positive mediators of seven out of 10 BMD sites with age and body fat% shown to be negative mediators of bone characteristics. In conclusion, whilst BMI is a good indicator of bone characteristics, high body fat% should also be the focus of osteoporosis risk with ageing. Interestingly, high BMI in conjunction with moderate to vigorous activity supplemented with an optimal diet (quality and quantity) are identified as positive modulators of bone heath.

Abstract (sommario):
Background and Aims: Body-mass index (BMI) is a popular method implemented to define weight status. However, describing obesity by BMI may result in inaccurate assessment of adiposity. The Body Adiposity Index (BAI) is intended to be a directly validated method of estimating body fat percentage. We set out to compare body weight status assessment by BMI and BAI in a cohort of elderly patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods: A total of 169 patients with stable CAD were enrolled in an out-patient cardiology clinic. The National Research Council (US) Committee on Diet and Health classification was used for individuals older than 65 years as underweight BMI < 24 kg/m2, normal weight BMI 24–29 kg/m2, overweight BMI 29–35 kg/m2, and obesity BMI > 35 kg/m2. In case of BAI, we used sex- and age-specific classification of weight status. In addition, body fat was estimated by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BImpA). Results: Only 72 out of 169 patients (42.6%) had concordant classification of weight status by both BMI and BAI. The majority of the patients had their weight status either underestimated or overestimated. There were strong positive correlations between BMI and BImpA (FAT%) (R = 0.78 p < 0.001); BAI and BImpA (FAT%) (R = 0.79 p < 0.001); and BMI and BAI (R = 0.67 p < 0.001). BMI tended to overestimate the rate of underweight, normal weight or overweight, meanwhile underestimating the rate of obesity. Third, BMI exhibited an average positive bias of 14.4% compared to the reference method (BImpA), whereas BAI exhibited an average negative bias of −8.3% compared to the reference method (BImpA). Multivariate logistic regression identified independent predictors of discordance in assessing weight status by BMI and BAI: BImpA (FAT%) odds ratio (OR) 1.29, total body water (%) OR 1.61, fat mass index OR 2.62, and Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score OR 1.25. Conclusions: There is substantial rate of misclassification of weight status between BMI and BAI. These findings have significant implications for clinical practice as the boundary between health and disease in malnutrition is crucial to accurately define criteria for intervention. Perhaps BMI cut-offs for classifying weight status in the elderly should be revisited.

Abstract (sommario):
ObjectiveThe possible different prevalence of arterial hypertension (AH), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), dyslipidaemia (DL) and vertebral fractures (FX) between patients with bilateral and unilateral adrenal incidentalomas (BAI and UAI, respectively) with and without subclinical hypercortisolism (SH) is unknown. In this study we compared the prevalence of AH, T2DM, DL and FX in BAI and UAI patients in relation to SH.DesignProspective study.MethodsIn 175 UAI and 38 BAI patients, we evaluated BMI, spinal and femoral bone mineral density (LS and FN BMD, respectively) and the presence of AH, T2DM, DL and FX. SH was diagnosed in the presence of ≥2 of the following: urinary free cortisol levels >193 nmol/24 h, serum cortisol levels after 1 mg dexamethasone suppression test >83 nmol/l or ACTH levels <2.2 pmol/l.ResultsAge, BMI and cortisol secretion were comparable, while FN BMD was lower in BAI than in UAI patients (−0.45±0.86 vs 0.09±1.07, P=0.004). The prevalence of SH, AH, T2DM, and DL was comparable, while the prevalence of FX was higher in BAI than in UAI (52.6 vs 28%, P=0.007). The presence of FX was associated with BAI (odds ratio (OR) 2.6, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.2–5.6, P=0.016), after adjusting for SH (OR 1.77, 95% CI 0.85–3.7, P=0.12), BMI (OR 1.06, 95% CI 0.98–1.13, P=0.1), age (OR 1.07, 95% CI 1.04–1.11, P=0.0001) and LS BMD (OR 1.31, 95% CI 1.03–1.67, P=0.03).ConclusionBAI patients have an increased FX risk than UAI ones. Further studies should investigate the causes of bone involvement in BAI patients.

Abstract (sommario):
Objective.Although several studies have investigated the association between body mass index (BMI) and bone mineral density (BMD), the results are inconsistent. The aim of this study was to further investigate the relation between BMI, weight and BMD in an Iranian men population.Methods.A total of 230 men 50-79 years old were examined. All men underwent a standard BMD scans of hip (total hip, femoral neck, trochanter, and femoral shaft) and lumbar vertebrae (L2-L4) using a Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) scan and examination of body size. Participants were categorised in two BMI group: normal weight <25.0 kg/m2and overweight and obese, BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2.Results.Compared to men with BMI ≥ 25, the age-adjusted odds ratio of osteopenia was 2.2 (95% CI 0.85, 5.93) and for osteoporosis was 4.4 (1.51, 12.87) for men with BMI < 25. It was noted that BMI and weight was associated with a high BMD, compatible with a diagnosis of osteoporosis.Conclusions.These data indicate that both BMI and weight are associated with BMD of hip and vertebrae and overweight and obesity decreased the risk for osteoporosis. The results of this study highlight the need for osteoporosis prevention strategies in elderly men as well as postmenopausal women.

Abstract (sommario):
Background: For diagnosis of haematological disorders there are three modalities to examine bone marrow, bone marrow aspiration cytology (BMA), bone marrow imprint (BMI) and bone marrow biopsy (BMB). BMA gives cytological picture; BMI also gives cytological picture but cells are less in number and BMB gives cytological as well as architectural picture. BMA alone may not be sufficient to reach diagnosis therefore the present study was undertaken to compare the above modalities. The study was conducted with the aim to perform cytomorphological evaluation of bone marrow in various haematological disorders with special reference to leukaemia and lymphoma and to compare bone marrow aspiration smears with bone marrow trephine biopsy.Methods: The present study was conducted in department of pathology, LLRM Medical College, Meerut inpatients attending the outpatient department and in-patient department of pediatrics and medicine of SVBP Hospital attached to LLRM Medical College, Meerut, over a period of one year i.e. from March 2018 to May 2019. A detailed clinical history, physical examination and laboratory examination of all the cases was done.Results: Out of 50 cases, maximum number of cases were of anemia 26/50 (52%) followed by leukemia 17/50 (34%), lymphoma 5/50 (10%), multiple myeloma 1/50 (2%), myelofibrosis 1/50 (2%), leishmaniasis 1/50 (2%) and idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura 1/50(2%). BMA smears were compared with biopsy and concordance and discordance was established. The overall diagnostic accuracy of aspiration was 94%.Conclusions: Bone marrow examination is a safe, quick easy and cost-effective procedure with very less patient discomfort. BMA shows better cellular details when compared to BMI and BMB. BMB is diagnostic investigation in dry tap cases like aplastic anemia, myelofibrosis, myelodysplastic syndrome and metastatic tumors. In present study, concordance between BMA and BMB was seen in majority of the cases and diagnostic accuracy was 94% study concludes that bone marrow aspiration cytology and trephine biopsy complement each other and should be performed simultaneously for complete bone marrow work up and evaluation.

Abstract (sommario):
Optimal body weight and body composition for age are relevant to child development and healthy life. Changes in lean mass and fat mass as well as its distribution are associated with alterations in the secretion of myokines and adipokines by muscle and adipose tissues. These factors are very important for bone health. The aim of the study was to assess serum leptin, adiponectin, resistin, visfatin and omentin as adipokines and myostatin and irisin as myokines with regard to their associations with bone parameters in healthy normal weight and thin children. We studied 81 healthy prepubertal children (aged 5 to 9 years) divided into three groups: group A—35 children with a BMI z-score between +1 and −1 SD; group B—36 children with a BMI z-score between −1 and −2 SD; and group C—10 thin children with a BMI z-score of <−2 SD. We observed significantly (p < 0.001) lower fat mass, fat/lean mass ratio and bone mineral density (BMD) across weight status with the lowest values in the group of thin children. We noticed significantly (p < 0.05) lower concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D, resistin and high-molecular-weight (HMW) adiponectin but higher levels of myostatin as the BMI z-score deceased. We found that BMI and leptin levels were directly correlated with fat mass, lean mass, bone mineral content (BMC) and BMD. Resistin levels were negatively associated with lean mass, while visfatin concentrations were positively related to total BMD. In healthy prepubertal children there were differences in body composition and in bone mineral density across decreasing BMI status. We suggest that changes in serum myostatin and 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels may play a role in bone status of thin children. Moreover, significant relations between adipokines and bone parameters may confirm crosstalk between fat tissue and bone in these children.

Abstract (sommario):
Background: Osteoporosis is a common health problem that affects postmenopausal females, leading to increased susceptibility to fractures. Body mass index (BMI) has been shown to be an important predictor of bone mineral density (BMD) with increased body weight correlating with positive influence on bone metabolism. Low BMI predisposes postmenopausal females to rapid bone loss and low bone mass, crucial in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis. However, a specific BMI value chart to accurately predict osteoporosis remains to be fully established. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship of BMI and BMD in postmenopausal Indian females.Methods: 90 healthy postmenopausal females with 1-5 years of menopause were enrolled in the study. Subjects were categorized according to their BMI into normal, overweight and obese. BMD was assessed using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan at L1-L4 vertebrae and femoral neck and expressed as T-scores. Quantitative variables were compared using ANOVA/Kruskal Wallis Test.Results: Bone mineral density was significantly higher in the obese group as compared to normal BMI group at both lumbar spine (p=0.001) and femoral neck (p=0.001). BMD at lumbar spine was lower than that at femoral neck across all the three groups of BMI.Conclusions: BMI and body weight are important factors affecting BMD. Postmenopausal females with low BMI are more likely to have osteopenia and osteoporosis and are thus at an increased risk of pathological fractures. Routine BMD monitoring in postmenopausal females with low BMI may be necessary to initiate early clinical interventions for osteoporosis.

Purpose: The aims of this study were to examine the bone areal density of the head and how it varied in relation to the density of the rest of the skeleton, and with age, and body mass index (BMI). Our intention was to study the feasibility of excluding the head from the rest of the body, a method which might improve the fracture prediction power of bone mineral measurements. Material and Methods: Bone mineral per area (BMA) and bone mineral content (BMC) (g) were determined in 100 consecutive female volunteers, aged 17 to 78 years, with total and partial body measurements. Results: BMC of the head was found to be 20.2±2.2% of that for the total body. The BMA of the head was 2.38±0.21 times higher than that of the rest of the body. The correlation between the BMA of the head and the rest of the body was significant (r=0.73). The average change in z-score (referred to the same age group in our material) was 0.20 when the head was excluded from total body BMA. The BMA of a) total body, b) total body, head excluded, and c) head decreased with age. The BMA of the head was correlated to BMI in the older age groups (p<0.01). The relative statistical uncertainty for repeated measurement of head BMA was 1.8%. Conclusion: The change of the bone density of the head with age and BMI, in comparison to that of the rest of the skeleton, suggests that when the head is excluded from total body BMA better predictive value for fracture risk is obtained.

Zusammenfassung Ziel: Body-mass-Index (BMI) eines Varizenkollektivs von Frauen und Männern im Vergleich mit der Bevölkerung. Beeinflusst der BMI Art oder Schweregrad der Varikosis bei Frauen? Patienten, Methode: Prospektiv wurden Patienten in die Studie aufgenommen, die zwischen Januar 2000 und April 2004 in Allgemeinanästhesie an ihren Varizen operiert werden. Gruppen von varizenchirurgisch nicht vorbehandelten Frauen mit einem BMI <20 und ≥30 kg/m2 bzw. <25 und ≥25 kg/m2 wurden verglichen. Ergebnisse: 470 Varizenpatienten (106 Männer, 364 Frauen, durchschnittliches Lebensalter 48,8 Jahre, durchschnittlicher BMI 24,5 kg/m2) zeigten folgende Verteilung (%) der BMI-Werte (kg/m2): <18,5 (3,6%); 18,5 bis <25 (56%); ≥25 bis <30 (29,4%); ≥30 (11%). 24,5% Frauen und 46,2% Männer mit BMI ≥25 bis <30 kg/m2, 10% Frauen und 15,1% Männer mit BMI ≥30 kg/m2. Die Gruppen von 38 Frauen mit BMI <20 kg/m2 (29 Frauen mit BMI ≥30 kg/m2) im Vergleich: Duchschnittsalter 42,3 Jahre (48,1); p=0,034; Durchschnittsgewicht 52,6 kg (91,2); Anteil Frauen mit Schwangerschaften 76,3% (82,2%); p=0,56; pathol. PPL 36,8% (41,4%); p=0,80; Durchschnitts-CEAP C 2,7 (C 3,0). 25 von 188 bzw. 27 von 101 Frauen mit BMI <25 bzw. ≥25 kg/m2 zeigen Varizen der V.s.m. acc. vom inguinalen Mündungstyp (ohne gleichzeitigen Reflux im gleichseitigen Magnastamm; p=0,006). Schlussfolgerung: Der BMI beim Varizenkollektiv unterscheidet sich nicht wesentlich von dem der schweizerischen Bevölkerung (Frauen: p=0,058; Männer: p=0,80) und zeigt keinen Zusammenhang mit der Varikosis. Varizenpatientinnen mit einem BMI ≥30 und <20 kg/m2 weisen in Bezug auf die hämodynamische Relevanz ihrer Varikosis keine Unterschiede auf. Patientinnen mit einem BMI <20 kg/m2 sind mit einem Duchschnittsalter von 42,3 Jahren signifikant jünger bei ihrer Operation. Varizen der V.s.m. acc. vom inguinalen Mündungstyp (ohne gleichzeitigen Reflux im gleichseitigen Magnastamm) treten bei Frauen mit BMI ≥25 kg/m2 signifikant häufiger auf als bei Frauen mit BMI <25 kg/m2.

Abstract (sommario):
Obesity, defined as an excess of fat in the body, is a condition with serious and numerous physical, social, psychological and economic consequences. Over the past 35 years, obesity has become a global epidemic, and Australia is one of the worst-affected nations. Over 63% of Australian adults are overweight or obese, and rates have been accelerating by 1% per year since the 1980s. Treatment advances have dramatically improved short-term weight loss outcomes, but relapse rates remain at a staggering 80-95% despite half a century of dedicated multidisciplinary research into this tenacious phenomenon. Researchers have identified a number of factors that explain this exceptionally high rate of relapse: the multiaetiological pathways to obesity; the breadth of factors implicated in the maintenance of obesity and the complexity of the interactions between these factors; the largely atheoretical nature of obesity treatments; and the inadequacy of Body Mass Index (BMI) as an accurate gauge of obesogenic risk have all been implicated in treatment failure.

Abstract (sommario):
Svenska befolkningens hälsa började på allvar att uppfattas som en samhällelig angelägenhet redan under 1700- talet och idag tar det sig uttryck i bland annat mätmetoder som BMI (Body Mass Index), vilket avser att undersöka befolkningens hälsa. Inom BMI området kan en brist på forskning upplevas på bland annat BMI:s påverkan. Människan tillbringar allt mer av sin vakna tid till medier, både professionella och privata aktiviteter fyller människans liv och dessa genomsyras av medietexter, mediebilder och kommunikationstekniker av olika slag. Syftet med denna undersökning var att beskriva hur BMI diskursen utspelar sig vid läsarkommentarer på internetbaserade tidningsartiklar. Metoden som användes i undersökningen var diskursanalys där läsarkommentarer på internetbaserade tidningsartiklar analyserades. Något som var representativt inom BMI diskursen var att individer i förhållande till sig själva reflekterade över vad som var normalt gentemot BMI. De uppfattningar som framkom bestod av utseendemässiga och hälsomässiga uppfattningar. Ofta upplevdes BMI som ett alldeles för snävt förhållningssätt till vad som är normalt. Det framkom även utsagor kring betydelsen av ”sunt förnuft” vid tolkandet av BMI:s funktion. BMI diskursen som framtonade sig ur läsarkommentarer bidrog med en komplex bild kring människors värderingar, människosyn och grundläggande uppfattningar.
The Swedish public health began to be seriously perceived as a societal concern as early as 1700. Today this takes form as methods of measurement like BMI (Body Mass Index) which are meant to investigate the population’s health. A lack of research can be experienced in the BMI area, for example research of BMI's influence. We spend more of our waking time to the media, both professional and personal activities fill our lives and those are influenced by media texts, media images and communications technologies of different kinds. The purpose of this study was to describe how the BMI discourse takes place at reader comments on internet-based articles. The Method of this study was discourse analysis in which the reader comments were analyzed. The results showed that it was representative in the BMI discourse for individuals in relation to themselves reflect on what was normal in relation to BMI. These views emerged as to what normal was comprised to both physical appearance and health. BMI was often perceived as to narrow approach to what is normal. The important use of “common sense” when interpreting BMI´s function was stated inside the BMI Discourse. The BMI Discourse that emerged from reader’s comments contributes to a complex context about human values, humanity and fundamental beliefs.

Educational Leadership
Ed.D.
School districts are charged with the task of providing America’s youth with the most well-rounded education so that they can grow into the most productive adult citizens. However, school funding cuts and the unending demand to make AYP often push students out of the center of that focus. As a result, matters like school-based Body Mass Index notifications have been moved to the backburner and are often simplified to only what the law requires. Although researchers have sought the best practice to address this cause, it still remains that those not directly involved in the process are designing and implementing regulations. The perceptions of parents and school personnel are not being addressed. As a result, this exploratory, single-case, qualitative study, researched the best school-based body mass index notification practice according to the perspective of eleven total parents and school personnel. These participants were from a school in Southeastern Pennsylvania, whose process is mandated by the state. Based on the findings, it is recommended that schools collaborate with parents to establish the most informative notification letter that meets their needs, rather than simply address the requirements of the state’s mandate. This collaboration must be inviting and easy to enter into and the findings need to be implemented, instead of just gathered and recorded. Prior notification must also be improved and supplemental materials need to be included in the mailing.

Abstract (sommario):
I ett internationellt perspektiv har Sverige hög amningsfrekvens, men under 2000-talet har amningsfrekvensen sjunkit och stora regionala skillnader ses. Kvinnorna rekommenderas att helamma sex månader. Mödravårdcentralen (MVC) informerar om bröstmjölkens hälsoeffekter som till exempel att bröstmjölken skyddar barn mot allergier. Forskning visar att överviktiga och feta kvinnor har kortare amningsduration, men få studier behandlar svenska förhållanden. Syfte: Syfte med fördjupningsarbetet är att studera samband mellan mammans BMI relaterat till amningsduration och mammans skattning av barnets hälsa de tre första levnadsåren. Metod: Studien är en kvantitativ retrospektiv tvärsnittstudie. Data insamlades via enkäter, 418 deltagare inkluderades. Data har analyserats med Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). För deskriptiv och jämförande analys har parametriska och icke-parametriska analyser genomförts. Resultat: De kvinnor som inte ammade skattade sitt barns hälsa sämre vid tre års ålder i jämförelse med kvinnor som ammat någon period. Vid tre års ålder skattade kvinnor med övervikt och fetma sitt barns hälsa sämre. Slutsats: Det är viktigt att kunna identifiera kvinnor som är behov av stöd för att initiera amning och kunna bidra till anpassat stöd till dem. AbstractSweden reports high duration of breastfeeding compared to international findings. During the last century, the frequency of breastfeeding duration has decreased in Sweden, with large regional differences. Recommendation for exclusive breastfeeding is six months. Midwives provide information about healthy benefits of breast milk, such as breast milk protecting baby´s against allergies. Research has presented associations between obesity and short duration of breastfeeding. However, there is a lack of knowledge regarding women in a Swedish context. Aim: To investigate the relation between mothers BMI, duration of breastfeeding and maternal valuation of the baby´s health during the first three year of life. Method: The study is a quantitative retrospective cross-sectional study. Data was collected through questionnaires, 418 participants were included. Data was analyzed using the SPSS. For descriptive and comparative analysis parametric and nonparamateric statistics have been used.Results: Women who did not breastfed perceived their baby´s health worse at three years compared with women who did breastfeed. Women with overweight and obesity also perceived the health of their three year old worse than the other maternal group. Conclusions: It´s important to identify women who need support to initiate breastfeeding and give them customized support.

Abstract (sommario):
Övervikt och fetma är ett stort hälsoproblem världen över. År 2008 var cirka 1,5 miljarder vuxna i världen överviktiga. Syftet med litteraturstudien var att undersöka om det finns en ökad förekomst av karies och parodontit hos vuxna personer med övervikt/fetma. Urvalet begränsades till vuxna som var 19 år eller äldre. Studien utfördes i form av en allmän litteraturstudie och materialet samlades in genom sökning i databaserna Pub Med och Science Direkt samt genom manuell sökning. Resultaten sammanställdes utifrån 14 vetenskapliga artiklar. Två vetenskapliga artiklar visade en ökad förekomst av karies hos personer med övervikt/fetma i jämförelse med personer som var normalviktiga. De andra artiklarna (n=2) som berörde karies hittade inget direkt samband mellan ökad kariesförekomst och övervikt/fetma. En ökad förekomst av parodontit hittades hos personer med övervikt/fetma i flera studier (n=4) vid jämförelse med normalviktiga deltagare. De resterande studierna (n=6) visade ett samband mellan förekomst av parodontit och personer med övervikt/fetma. Det tycks finnas en ökad förekomst av parodontit hos personer med övervikt/fetma då olika socioekonomiska faktorer eller andra förhållanden har betydelse. De fåtal artiklar som undersöktes visar att faktorer som kostvanor, saliv och munhygien är avgörande vid kariesförekomst.
Overweight and obesity are a huge health problem worldwide. Year 2008 it was about 1,5 billion adults that were overweight. The aim of this study was to investigate if there is an increased occurrence of dental caries and periodontal disease in adults with overweight/obesity. The study was limited to adults that were nineteen years old and above. The material was collected from the databases PubMed and Science Direct and a manual search. These results are based on fourteen scientific articles. Two scientific articles showed an increased occurrence of dental caries on persons with overweight/obesity compared with people who were normal weighted. The other studies (n=2) did not found a direct correlation between increased caries and overweight/obesity. The presence of periodontal disease in individuals with overweight/obesity was found to be increased significantly in several studies (n=4) compared to participants with normal weight. The other studies (n=6) showed a relation between occurrence of periodontitis and overweight/obesity. There seems to be an increased occurence of periodontitis in persons with overweight/obesity as several socio- economic factors or other conditions affect. The few scientific articles that were examined show that factors such as diet, saliva and oral hygiene are important in caries occurrence

Abstract (sommario):
Övervikt och fetma är ett snabbt växande folkhälsoproblem som medför ökad risk för psykosocialt lidande och många allvarliga sjukdomar. Särskilt oroande är att övervikt och fetma allt oftare drabbar barn och ungdomar. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka om det finns ett samband mellan Body Mass Index (BMI) och Känsla Av SAMmanhang (KASAM) hos elever i skolår 9, samt att analysera kön och psykosociala faktorers (familje- och kamratrelationer) eventuella inverkan på relationen BMI och KASAM. Det statistiska materialet är hämtat från undersökningen ”Liv och hälsa - Ung 2004 Västmanland” där KASAM- skalan med 13 frågor används. Analysmetoden är en multipel regression. Resultaten indikerar svaga samband mellan variablerna. Starkast är sambandet mellan BMI/KASAM och kön, där pojkarna uppvisar högre BMI än flickorna. Mer familjeregler relaterar till lägre BMI. Bättre kommunikation, förtrolighet och sammanhållning relaterar till högre BMI. Variationer i BMI är betydligt mer mångfasetterat eller grundläggande än vad denna studie kunnat belysa. Förklaringar till detta kan vara att variablerna inte har så stort förklaringsvärde, metodvalet är fel och/eller att KASAM-frågorna är svårförståeliga.
Overweight and obesity is a fast growing public health issue that leads to increased risk of psychosocial suffering and many serious illnesses. Especially worrying is that overweight and obesity more often affect children and adolescents. The aim of this study is to examine if there is a relation between Body Mass Index (BMI) and Sense of Coherence (SOC) among pupils in grade 9 and also analyse sex and psychosocial elements (family relations and friendship) possible influence on the relation BMI and KASAM. The statistical material is taken from the survey “Liv och hälsa - Ung 2004 Västmanland” where the 13-item SOC-scale is used. The method of analysis is a multiple regression. The results imply weak relations between the variables. The strongest relation is between sex and BMI/KASAM, where boys show a higher BMI than girls. More family rules relate to lower BMI. Better communication, familiarity and connectedness relates to higher BMI. The variations in BMI are considerably more nuanced or fundamental than this study has been able to illustrate. Explanations can be that the variables do not have a great explanatory value, the choice of method is wrong and/or the questions concerning SOC are difficult to comprehend.

Abstract (sommario):
Sammanfattning Introduktion: I dagens arbetsliv och samhälle har individen blivit allt mer stillasittande och minskat mängden motion med risk för sämre kondition trots att detta är en känd riskfaktor för sjukdom och nedsatt arbetsförmåga. Syftet med denna studie var att studera konditionsnivån hos kontorsanställda i förhållande till BMI, kön och ålder. Metod: En kvantitativ tvärsnittsstudie har genomförts baserad på data från hälsoundersökning där BMI, kön, ålder och konditionstal undersöktes. 100 personer deltog i studien, varav 33 kvinnor och 67 män i åldern 25-63 år. Resultat: De kontorsanställda hade en god syreupptagningsförmåga på i genomsnitt 37,3 ml/(kg x min) och låg över det rekommenderade konditionstalet 35 ml/(kg x min) för kontorsarbetare. Kvinnorna i gruppen hade bättre konditionstal än männen. Medelålders kvinnor (41-50 år) hade något lägre konditionstal än yngre (25-40 år)och äldre kvinnor (51-63 år). Männen med högt BMI hade ett sämre konditionstal än dem med ett lägre BMI. Konklusion: Trots stillasittande arbete hade de kontorsanställda en god kondition och det ger förutsättningar att prestera ett bra resultat i arbetet. Kvinnorna hade ett bättre konditionstal än männen och högre BMI förknippades med lägre konditionstal. Företagssköterskan och företagshälsovården kan spela en viktig roll för att medverka till förbättrad kondition och lägre vikt bland anställda, vilket skulle gynna hälsan och arbetsförmågan. Nyckelord: BMI, konditionstal, kontorsanställda, syreupptagningsförmåga och ålder.
Summary Introduction: In modern working life and society, individual have become more and more sedentary and physical activity has decreased affecting the fitness level. This has occurred despite the common knowledge that a sedentary lifestyle is a risk factor associated with illness and decreased ability to work. The aim of the study was to study the fitness level of office workers in relation to BMI, sex, and gender. Method: A quantitative cross-sectional study has been done which included data from health checks including BMI, gender, age, and capacity of absorption of oxygen, which was expressed as fitness level (1-5). One hundred office workers participated in the study, 33 females and 67 males aged 25-63 years. Result: The office employees had a good capacity of absorption of oxygen, on average 37.3 ml/(kg x min), which was over the recommended fitness level 35 ml/(kg x min) for office employees. The females had a better fitness level than the males. Middle aged (41-50 years) women had somewhat lower fitness level than younger (25-40 years) and older (51-63 years)females. Men with high BMI had a lower fitness level than men with low BMI. Conclusion: The office employees had a good fitness level in spite of sedentary work and this gives conditions of performing well at work. The females had a better fitness level than the males and higher BMI was associated with lower fitness level. The company nurse and the occupational health service may play an important role in contributing to better fitness level and lower weight among office employees, which would promote health and working capacity. Keywords: Age, BMI, fitness level, office employees and oxygen uptake.

Abstract (sommario):
Background: The prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) has increased recently in Qatar. Body mass index (BMI) is a predictor of T2D in many populations. However, BMI is based on height and weight measurements and not on body adiposity. Therefore, the utility of BMI for predicting the risk of T2D has been questioned, and visceral adiposity (VAI) appears to be a better predictor of T2D. Objective: This study is aimed to assess the relative effectiveness of visceral adiposity index (VAI) and body adiposity index (BAI), in comparison with body mass index (BMI), for T2D among Qatari adults. Methodology: A random sample of 1103 adult Qatari nationals over 20 years old were included in this study; this data was obtained from the Qatar National Biobank. We performed a multivariate logistic regression to examine the association between VAI, BAI, BMI, and T2D, and computed zscores for VAI, BAI and BMI. Results: VAI z-scores showed the strongest association with the risk of T2D (OR, 1.44; 95% CI: 1.24–1.68) compared with the zscores for BAI (OR, 1.15; 95% CI: 0.93–1.43) and BMI (OR, 1.33; 95% CI: 1.11–1.59). Subgroup analyses indicated that the association was stronger between VAI and T2D in Qatari women than in men. Conclusion: VAI was a strong and independent predictor of T2D among the Qatari adult population. Therefore, VAI could be a useful tool for predicting the risk of T2D among Qatari adults.

Abstract (sommario):
Conditions such as diabetes and obesity have been found to affect the mechanical integrity of bone. Studies have shown that diabetic rodent models exhibit lower levels of new bone formation during fracture healing 1, lower bone mineral density (BMD) 2, and increased risk of fracture 3. There are differences, however, in the bone integrity of bone samples from type I and type II diabetics, which is most likely due to obesity 2. Findings from research on obesity’s effects on bone integrity have been controversial; although there is an increase in bone mineral density (BMD) with increasing body mass index (BMI) and a decrease in fracture incidence in the central body regions in obese women compared to healthy weight women due to soft tissue padding, there is an increase in fracture incidence at extremeties 4. Other studies have shown that while cortical bone strength may not be adversely affected by high-fat diets, cancellous bone BMD and mechanical strength was significantly lower in high-fat diet mice than low-fat diet mice 5. In addition, extreme obesity has been associated with lower BMD despite the general trend of increased BMD with higher BMI 6.

Abstract (sommario):
Childhood obesity is becoming increasingly important in children because it occurs in earlier age periods. Children with intellectual disabilities belong to a high-risk group in the area of obesity. Their disability limits them in everyday life both in the possibilities of participation in physical activities and in the field of lifestyle. Currently, there is not real data in BMI age trends for children with intellectual disabilities. The aim of the research is to find out the trends of BMI in children with mild and moderate intellectual disability in different age periods and to find out whether summer holidays have an effect in BMI trend in some age periods. The methods used were quantitative and comparative research. BMI indicators were mea-sured using an In-Body machine. T-test was used to identify statistically significant differ-ences between periods. Trends were measured in children aged 6–20 years (the number of participants in each measurement: n = 49, n = 55, n = 56, n = 55) in over two years in the region Zlín in the Czech Republic. Trends are evaluated using box charts. The conclusion is that the trend of BMI of school-age pupils is positively accelerating, summer holidays have no affect BMI values. The BMI trend in pubescence pupils is fluctuating with a decrease in BMI values during the summer holidays. The BMI trend in adolescence pupils is convex, summer holidays have no effect on BMI values. BMI trends of all ages are within the normal weight. Astatistically significant difference in BMI is only for pupils of school age between September 2017 and June 2018. It is beneficial finding for practice that children with intellectual disability in the Czech Republic have much better results in BMI indicators and trends than children with intellectual disability in abroad.

Abstract (sommario):
Introduction: Advancements and increase in access to healthcare have increased the life expectancy in India from 32 years in 1947 to almost 70 years currently. Due to robust vaccination and basic health programs, most of the communicable diseases are kept under control. The disease burden is now skewed towards non-communicable diseases. It is an established fact that body mass index (BMI) is a reliable predictor of cardiovascular disease (CVD) later in life. Early prediction can decrease the disease load and enable early preventative measures. A more novel approach of connecting it with blood groups would yield profound results in predictability and subsequent management. This study was done to see correlation between BMI and known blood groups in order to predict the potential incidence of CVDs in medical students. Material and Method - A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted in Bhaskar Medical College from September 2022 - November 2022. The sample population included 150- 1st year medical students chosen by Randomized sampling method. BMI was calculated based as weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters (kg/m2). Discussion - Many studies conducted on the association of Blood groups with BMI yielded mixed and inconclusive results.
