Abstract

Pendahuluan: Perilaku mengunyah setiap orang memerlukan waktu mengunyah yang berbeda. Waktu mengunyah tersebut menggambarkan seberapa cepat seseorang untuk mengunyah. Semakin cepat mengunyah maka orang tersebut memiliki kecenderungan untuk mengalami kelebihan berat badan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara perilaku mengunyah (kecepatan mengunyah) terhadap berat badan. Metode: Empat puluh delapan orang mahasiswa Fakultas Kedokteran Gigi Universitas Padjadjaran terpilih untuk mengikuti penelitian ini. Setiap subjek mengikuti pengukuran tinggi badan dan berat badan. Subjek penelitian diminta melakukan puasa 8 jam sebelumnya, tes makan dilakukan pada pagi hari pukul dengan porsi makanan seberat 430 gram. Pengukuran waktu makan dilakukan dengan menggunakan stopwatch. Data dianalisis dengan menggunakan uji korelasi rank Spearman. Hasil: terdapat hubungan yang bermakna (p<0,05; p=0,031) dengan koefisien korelasi positif (0,311) antara kecepatan pengunyahan dengan indeks massa tubuh. Simpulan: Korelasi kecepatan pengunyahan berbanding lurus dengan Indeks Massa Tubuh. Semakin tinggi kecepatan mengunyah maka semakin tinggi kecenderungan seseorang memiliki IMT di atas rata-rata.Kata kunci: Kecepatan pengunyahan, Indeks Massa Tubuh, obesitas

Abstract

Introduction: Asthma or bronchial asthma is a chronic respiratory tract inflammation process involving many cells, including their elements, and can cause severe and plentiful responses from the respiratory tract. Administration of inhalation drugs is the primary medication in treating bronchial asthma. Inhalants are given appropriately with dosage and usage period based on the severity level of bronchial asthma. This research aimed to analyse the differences in the salivary flow rate, buffer, and pH, based on the length of inhalants usage in bronchial asthma patients. Methods: The research was descriptive-comparative involving 40 bronchial asthma patients (6 male and 34 female) from the Community Lung Health Center of Bandung, taken as samples using the central theorem limit sampling method. The subjects were ordered to collect their saliva in the saliva collection cups with a draining method. Then, the salivary flow rate, buffer, and pH were examined. Data distribution was tested, resulting in normally distributed data; thus, a parametric independent t-test with a significant level of 0.05 was applied. Results: Subjects in the group of inhalant usage for more than ten years had low and very low categories of salivary flow rate, buffer, and pH. There were significant differences in the salivary flow rate, buffer, and pH of the bronchial asthma patients based on their length of inhalants usage (1-5 years; >5 years–10 years; >10 years; p<0.05). Conclusions: There are differences in the salivary flow rate, buffer, and pH based on the length of inhalants usage in bronchial asthma patients. The longer the usage period, the lower the salivary flow rate, buffer, and pH.

Abstract

Introduction: The elders are the ones that most often experience tooth loss which affects masticatory function. Masticatory function can be evaluated subjectively through masticatory ability assessment. The masticatory function is influenced by the number of posterior occluding pairs; this also may be called as functional tooth units (FTUs). The purpose of this study was to describe FTUs and masticatory ability in the elderly. Methods: This research was a descriptive study with a cross-sectional study design. Subjects were taken by purposive sampling technique. The study was conducted in the Lebakgede Sub-district, Bandung City. Data mentioned were obtained by conducting interviews regarding data on subject characteristics and questionnaires of masticatory ability, as well as examining the oral cavity to obtain FTUs data. Results: Subjects obtained were 74 people consisting of 63 women (85.14%) and 11 men (14.86%). Based on the results, the average age of the research subjects was 68.49 years, and those with good masticatory ability status were 26 elderly (35.14%) with an average FTU value of 5.9 while 48 elderly (64.86%) had poor masticatory ability status with an average FTU score of 1.5, even 31 subjects (41.89%) had a zero FTU score. Conclusion: The majority of the elderly in this research mostly had a low total FTUs score which means that the masticatory ability status in the elderly tended to be poor.
