Judul: Karakteristik fisik, status gizi, kebiasaan konsumsi kedelai dan produk turunannya serta hubungannya dengan sindrom menopause pada peserta program lifeskill wanita pra dan usia lanjut di Bogor
Abstrak: Elder women have many changes in body composition, physiological, and psychological. One of the phases in women’s life is menopause stage that occurs in elder age compare to their younger age. Menopausal syndrome has been a problem world wide. Many researches have shown that soy-isoflavone can be a potential alternative to reduce menopausal syndrome. Physical activity and nutritional status also have roles in menopausal syndrome. Menopausal syndrome includes menopausal symptoms, self-images, and anxiety. The objectives of this research were to determine the relationship among physical activity, nutritional status, and the habitual of soy and soy-product consumption with menopausal syndrome. This was a purposed retrospective research. A population of Adult and Elder Women Life-skill Program was being involved in this research. The total sample that fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria was 31 menopausal women as one population. Mostly (48.4%) samples were low educated and had family income between Rp 1 000 000 – 3 000 000 per month. The mean age was 64.5 ± 9.0 years old and had menarche at aged 13.5 ± 1.7 years old. The mean of physical activity was categorized as light (PAL = 1.69). Mostly samples were overweight (45.2%) and had an average soy and soy-product consumption (71%) that fulfilled 25% of the RDA of isoflavone consumption. The result of Pearson correlation test showed that physical activity had significant relationship with self images (r = -0.454, p < 0.05) and the consumption of soy isoflavone had significant relationship with anxiety (r = -0.445, p < 0.05). The result of multiple linear regression showed that nutritional status and soy isoflavone consumption affected menopausal symptoms. Physical activity affected self-images (R2 =0.206, p < 0.05) and soy consumption affected anxiety (R2 = 0.198, p < 0.05). Nutritional status dan soy isoflavon consumption affected symptons of menopause (R2 = 0.198, p < 0.05). Generally, physical activity, nutritional status, and soy isoflavone consumption have role in menopausal syndrome (R2 = 0.190, p < 0.05). Healthy lifestyle that promotes physical activity and soy consumption habit and maintain nutritional status may reduce menopausal syndrome.

Judul: Analisis Pola Makan Dan Aktivitas Fisik Terhadap Usia Menopause Di Kota Bogor
Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis pola konsumsi pangan dan aktivitas fisik terhadap usia menopause di Kota Bogor dengan menggunakan disain penelitian cross sectional study. Jumlah sampel dalam penelitian ini 50 orang.Hasil penelitian menunjukan sebagian besar contoh mengalami menopause normal (74%) dan sebanyak 26% mengalami menopause dini.Sebagian besar contoh memiliki status gizi normal yaitu sebanyak 17 orang (34%).Pangan sumber karbohidrat yang paling banyak dikonsumsi contoh dalam sehari adalah nasi dengan frekuensi 2.8 kali dengan berat 560 gram, protein hewani adalah telur ayam dengan frekuensi 0.6 kali dan berat 35.96 gram, pangan kacang-kacangan dan hasil olahannya yaitu tahu dengan frekuensi 0.77 kali dan berat 19.52 gram, dan serat yaitu pepaya degan frekuensi 0.67 kali dan berat 67.21 gram. Tingkat kecukupan energi (72%), protein (62%), dan karbohidrat (62%) contoh sebagian besar termasuk dalam kategori normal.Sementara tingkat kecukupan lemak (36%) defisit berat.Aktivitas contoh sebagian besar termasuk dalam kategori sedang (78%).Tidak terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara asupan karbohidrat, asupan protein hewani, konsumsi pangan kacang-kacangan dan hasil olahannya (kacang hijau, kacang tanah, tempe), aktivitas fisik, dan faktor reproduksi dengan usia menopause (p>0.05). Terdapat hubungan yang signifikan (p<0.05) antara konsumsi tahu dengan usia menopause.

Judul: Posisi Filogenetik Kura-Kura Carettochelys Insculpta  (Reptillia: Testudinata)
Abstrak: Carettochelys insculpta is an endemic freshwater turtle of southern Papua and northern Australia. Phylogenetic position of this turtle is remain unresolved until now. Most of the research conducted show close relationships of C. insculpta and members of Trionychidae family. However, some of the research show distance between C. insculpta and members of Trionychidae family. This research is conducted to analyze phylogenetic relationship between C. insculpta and other members of Testudinata using 12S rRNA, 16S rRNA, and both gene as markers. DNA samples were obtained from three different organisms of C. insculpta. Two species used as outgroups were Alligator mississippiensis and Iguana iguana. Phylogenetic analysis was carried out using Neighbor-Joining method with Felsenstein 1981 (F81) modeltest. A polytomy tree of Testudinata was produced by using 12S rRNA gene. However, analysis using 16S rRNA and both genes as markers confirmed that C. insculpta was located between the Chelonidae and the Trionychidae family.
