Awareness of the challenges of sustainable development, and in particular the risks of climate change, is leading to inevitable restrictions on Greenhouse gas emissions. True carbon risk management must be introduced into the strategy of companies that will increasingly operate in a global low-carbon economy. Indeed, companies are now called upon to be accountable and transparent about the environmental consequences of their business activities. Carbon risk is one of several new emerging risks for companies associated with climate change risks, regulatory risks from climate policies and the introduction of new markets in which companies trade emission credits. Carbon management requires companies to have a better understanding of their GHG emissions to assess their environmental responsibility and to know their degree of exposure to carbon risk. Once this assessment has been carried out, the company must adopt a carbon risk communication strategy, define targets, and implement abatement practices. Dalsey, Hillblom and Lynn is the world's leading logistics company and emits around 29 million tonnes of CO2e per year. DHL prioritises accounting, disclosure, energy efficiency and offsets to reduce its emissions. The company is struggling to reduce its emissions but is limiting the increase in emissions despite the increase in its activity. DHL needs to be more rigorous in developing better carbon management tools and giving itself the means to achieve very high targets.

Published: March 2022

Background

Physical and social distancing recommendations aimed at limiting exposure during the COVID-19 pandemic have forced residency programs to increasingly rely on videoconferencing and web-based resources.

Objective

In this pilot study, we aimed to explore the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on residency training experience, and to delineate the perceived barriers to the successful implementation of web-based medical education.

Methods

A 19-item survey was compiled and distributed electronically using Qualtrics. This anonymous survey included information on the training level of each resident, their participation in formal didactics before and during the pandemic, and their perception of the ease and limitations of virtual didactics. The resident’s opinions on specific educational resources were assessed, and the effectiveness of new delivery methods on resident engagement and learning was examined.

Results

Thirty anesthesiology residents were surveyed, 19 of whom agreed to participate in the pilot study. One participant with incomplete responses was excluded, yielding a final cohort of 18 respondents. Most residents (56%, 10/18) reported that the COVID-19 pandemic negatively affected their residency training. The time spent on didactic training and independent studies was, nevertheless, not affected by the pandemic for 90% (16/18) of respondents. Nonetheless, 72% (13/18) of residents were less engaged during virtual lectures in comparison to in-person didactics. Important limitations included distraction from the physical environment (67%, 12/18), internet instability (67%, 12/18), less obligation to participate (44%, 8/18), technical difficulty and unmuted microphones (33%, 6/18, each), and people speaking over each other (28%, 5/18). Despite these limitations, most residents stated that they would like to keep a combination of virtual didactics including live Zoom lectures (56%, 10/18), prerecorded web didactics (56%, 10/18), and virtual ground rounds via Zoom (50%, 9/18) as the “new normal.”

Conclusions

Despite important limitations listed in this report, anesthesia residents would like to keep a combination of virtual lectures and presentations as the new normal after the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Public Perception of the #GeneEditedBabies Event Across Multiple Social Media Platforms: Observational Study
Authors: Ni Congning , Wan Zhiyu , Yan Chao , Liu Yongtai , Clayton Ellen Wright , Malin Bradley , Yin Zhijun
Published: March 2022

Background

In November 2018, a Chinese researcher reported that his team had applied clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats or associated protein 9 to delete the gene C-C chemokine receptor type 5 from embryos and claimed that the 2 newborns would have lifetime immunity from HIV infection, an event referred to as #GeneEditedBabies on social media platforms. Although this event stirred a worldwide debate on ethical and legal issues regarding clinical trials with embryonic gene sequences, the focus has mainly been on academics and professionals. However, how the public, especially stratified by geographic region and culture, reacted to these issues is not yet well-understood.

Objective

The aim of this study is to examine web-based posts about the #GeneEditedBabies event and characterize and compare the public’s stance across social media platforms with different user bases.

Methods

We used a set of relevant keywords to search for web-based posts in 4 worldwide or regional mainstream social media platforms: Sina Weibo (China), Twitter, Reddit, and YouTube. We applied structural topic modeling to analyze the main discussed topics and their temporal trends. On the basis of the topics we found, we designed an annotation codebook to label 2000 randomly sampled posts from each platform on whether a supporting, opposing, or neutral stance toward this event was expressed and what the major considerations of those posts were if a stance was described. The annotated data were used to compare stances and the language used across the 4 web-based platforms.

Results

We collected >220,000 posts published by approximately 130,000 users regarding the #GeneEditedBabies event. Our results indicated that users discussed a wide range of topics, some of which had clear temporal trends. Our results further showed that although almost all experts opposed this event, many web-based posts supported this event. In particular, Twitter exhibited the largest number of posts in opposition (701/816, 85.9%), followed by Sina Weibo (968/1140, 84.91%), Reddit (550/898, 61.2%), and YouTube (567/1078, 52.6%). The primary opposing reason was rooted in ethical concerns, whereas the primary supporting reason was based on the expectation that such technology could prevent the occurrence of diseases in the future. Posts from these 4 platforms had different language uses and patterns when they expressed stances on the #GeneEditedBabies event.

Conclusions

This research provides evidence that posts on web-based platforms can offer insights into the public’s stance on gene editing techniques. However, these stances vary across web-based platforms and often differ from those raised by academics and policy makers.
Improving the Prediction of Persistent High Health Care Utilizers: Retrospective Analysis Using Ensemble Methodology
Authors: Howson Stephanie N , McShea Michael J , Ramachandran Raghav , Burkom Howard S , Chang Hsien-Yen , Weiner Jonathan P , Kharrazi Hadi
Published: March 2022

Background

A small proportion of high-need patients persistently use the bulk of health care services and incur disproportionate costs. Population health management (PHM) programs often refer to these patients as persistent high utilizers (PHUs). Accurate PHU prediction enables PHM programs to better align scarce health care resources with high-need PHUs while generally improving outcomes. While prior research in PHU prediction has shown promise, traditional regression methods used in these studies have yielded limited accuracy.

Objective

We are seeking to improve PHU predictions with an ensemble approach in a retrospective observational study design using insurance claim records.

Methods

We defined a PHU as a patient with health care costs in the top 20% of all patients for 4 consecutive 6-month periods. We used 2013 claims data to predict PHU status in next 24 months. Our study population included 165,595 patients in the Johns Hopkins Health Care plan, with 8359 (5.1%) patients identified as PHUs in 2014 and 2015. We assessed the performance of several standalone machine learning methods and then an ensemble approach combining multiple models.

Results

The candidate ensemble with complement naïve Bayes and random forest layers produced increased sensitivity and positive predictive value (PPV; 49.0% and 50.3%, respectively) compared to logistic regression (46.8% and 46.1%, respectively).

Conclusions

Our results suggest that ensemble machine learning can improve prediction of care management needs. Improved PPV implies reduced incorrect referral of low-risk patients. With the improved sensitivity/PPV balance of this approach, resources may be directed more efficiently to patients needing them most.
Cluster Analysis of Primary Care Physician Phenotypes for Electronic Health Record Use: Retrospective Cohort Study
Authors: Fong Allan , Iscoe Mark , Sinsky Christine A , Haimovich Adrian D , Williams Brian , O'Connell Ryan T , Goldstein Richard , Melnick Edward
Published: March 2022

Background

Electronic health records (EHRs) have become ubiquitous in US office-based physician practices. However, the different ways in which users engage with EHRs remain poorly characterized.

Objective

The aim of this study is to explore EHR use phenotypes among ambulatory care physicians.

Methods

In this retrospective cohort analysis, we applied affinity propagation, an unsupervised clustering machine learning technique, to identify EHR user types among primary care physicians.

Results

We identified 4 distinct phenotype clusters generalized across internal medicine, family medicine, and pediatrics specialties. Total EHR use varied for physicians in 2 clusters with above-average ratios of work outside of scheduled hours. This finding suggested that one cluster of physicians may have worked outside of scheduled hours out of necessity, whereas the other preferred ad hoc work hours. The two remaining clusters represented physicians with below-average EHR time and physicians who spend the largest proportion of their EHR time on documentation.

Conclusions

These findings demonstrate the utility of cluster analysis for exploring EHR use phenotypes and may offer opportunities for interventions to improve interface design to better support users’ needs.
Delivering Personalized Recommendations to Support Caregivers of People Living With Dementia: Mixed Methods Study
Authors: Cha Jinhee , Peterson Colleen M , Millenbah Ashley N , Louwagie Katie , Baker Zachary G , Shah Ayush , Jensen Christine J , Gaugler Joseph E
Published: March 2022

Background

Estimates suggest that 6.2 million Americans aged ≥65 years are living with Alzheimer dementia in 2021, and by 2060, this number could more than double to 13.8 million. As a result, public health officials anticipate a greater need for caregivers of persons with Alzheimer disease or related dementia and support resources for both people living with dementia and their caregivers. Despite the growing need for dementia caregiver support services, there is a lack of consensus regarding how to tailor these services to best meet the heterogeneous needs of individual caregivers. To fill this gap, Care to Plan (CtP), a web-based tool for caregivers of people living with dementia, was developed to provide tailored support recommendations to dementia caregivers.

Objective

The aim of this study is to formally explore the feasibility, acceptability, and utility of CtP for 20 family members of people living with dementia within a health system over a 1-month time period using a mixed methods parallel convergent design.

Methods

A moderately sized health system in the mid-Atlantic region was selected as the site for CtP implementation, where 20 caregivers who were family members of people living with dementia were enrolled. The web-based CtP tool was used by caregivers and facilitated by a health care professional (ie, a senior care navigator [SCN]). Caregivers were given a 21-item review checklist to assess barriers and facilitators associated with reviewing CtP with an SCN. Following the 21-item review checklist, semistructured telephone interviews, which included 18 open-ended questions, focused on the facilitators of and barriers to CtP implementation and recommendations for future implementation.

Results

Quantitative results suggested that 85% (17/20) of caregivers indicated that CtP was helpful and 90% (18/20) would recommend CtP to someone in a similar situation. The qualitative analysis identified 4 themes regarding facilitators of and barriers to implementation: caregiver factors, SCN factors, CtP tool system factors, and recommendations and resources factors.

Conclusions

CtP was found to be not only feasible but also a valuable tool for caregivers seeking resources for themselves and their people living with dementia. Long-term evaluation findings aim to generate results on how CtP can be integrated into care plans for caregivers and how SCNs can provide additional support for caregivers of people living with dementia over an extended period.
CoGNIT Automated Tablet Computer Cognitive Testing in Patients With Mild Cognitive Impairment: Feasibility Study (Preprint)
Authors: Behrens Anders , Berglund Johan Sanmartin , Anderberg Peter
Published: March 2022

BACKGROUND

Early diagnosis of cognitive disorders is becoming increasingly important. Limited resources for specialist assessment and an increasing demographical challenge warrants the need for efficient methods of evaluation. In response, CoGNIT, a tablet app for automatic, standardized, and efficient assessment of cognitive function, was developed. Included tests span the cognitive domains regarded as important for assessment in a general memory clinic (memory, language, psychomotor speed, executive function, attention, visuospatial ability, manual dexterity, and symptoms of depression).

OBJECTIVE

The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of automatic cognitive testing with CoGNIT in older patients with symptoms of mild cognitive impairment (MCI).

METHODS

Patients older than 55 years with symptoms of MCI (n=36) were recruited at the research clinic at the Blekinge Institute of Technology (BTH), Karlskrona, Sweden. A research nurse administered the Mini-Mental State Exam (MMSE) and the CoGNIT app on a tablet computer. Technical and testing issues were documented.

RESULTS

The test battery was completed by all 36 patients. One test, the four-finger–tapping test, was performed incorrectly by 42% of the patients. Issues regarding clarity of instructions were found in 2 tests (block design test and the one finger-tapping test). Minor software bugs were identified.

CONCLUSIONS

The overall feasibility of automatic cognitive testing with the CoGNIT app in patients with symptoms of MCI was good. The study highlighted tests that did not function optimally. The four-finger–tapping test will be discarded, and minor improvements to the software will be added before further studies and deployment in the clinic.

Evaluation of a Web-Based Dietary Assessment Tool (myfood24) in Norwegian Women and Men Aged 60-74 Years: Usability Study (Preprint)
Authors: Hopstock Laila Arnesdatter , Medin Anine Christine , Skeie Guri , Henriksen André , Lundblad Marie Wasmuth
Published: March 2022

BACKGROUND

A healthy diet throughout the life course improves health and reduces the risk of disease. There is a need for new knowledge of the relation between diet and health, but existing methods to collect information on food and nutrient intake have their limitations. Evaluations of new tools to assess dietary intake are needed, especially in old people, where the introduction of new technology might impose challenges.

OBJECTIVE

We aimed to examine the usability of a new web-based dietary assessment tool in older adult women and men.

METHODS

A total of 60 women and men (participation 83%, 57% women) aged 60-74 years recruited by convenience and snowball sampling completed a 24-hour web-based dietary recall using the newly developed Norwegian version of Measure Your Food On One Day (myfood24). Total energy and nutrient intakes were calculated in myfood24, primarily on the basis of the Norwegian Food Composition Table. No guidance or support was provided to complete the recall. Usability was assessed using the system usability scale (SUS), where an SUS score of ≥68 was considered satisfactory. We examined the responses to single SUS items and the mean (SD) SUS score in groups stratified by sex, age, educational level, and device used to complete the recall (smartphone, tablet device, or computer).

RESULTS

The mean total energy intake was 5815 (SD 3093) kJ. A total of 14% of participants had an energy intake of <2100 kJ (ie, 500 kilocalories) and none had an intake of >16,800 kJ (ie, 4000 kilocalories). Mean energy proportions from carbohydrates, fat, protein, alcohol, and fiber was within the national recommendations. The mean SUS score was 55.5 (SD 18.6), and 27% of participants had SUS scores above the satisfactory product cut-off. Higher SUS scores were associated with younger age and lower education, but not with the type of device used.

CONCLUSIONS

We found the overall usability of a new web-based dietary assessment tool to be less than satisfactory in accordance with standard usability criteria in a sample of 60-74–year-old Norwegians. The observed total energy intakes suggest that several of the participants underreported their intake during the completion of the dietary recall. Implementing web-based dietary assessment tools in older adults is feasible, but guidance and support might be needed to ensure valid completion.

Authors: Patole Dr. S. S.
Published: March 2022

Abstract: The Cardiotoxic effect of aqueous extract of some indigenous plants is evaluated on American cockroach, Periplaneta Americana Linn as an experimental animal in laboratory conditions. Toxicity of plant extract was determined in terms of LD50 value in the cockroach by tropical application. However, the Cardiotoxic activity was found to be higher in experimental animals as compared to control on exposure to plant extracts and it was dose dependent. Among the plants evaluated Balanites roxburghii Planch, Cestrum nocturnum Linn, Nicotiana tabecum Linn and Sapindus trifoliatus Linn showed highly Cardiotoxic activity causes significant reduction in heart rate. Whereas, Azadirachta indica A. Juss extract shows least activity than remaining experimental plants. This result therefore seems to support the claim that the plant extract contain saponin and glycoside as an active ingredients in them. Keywords: Cardiotoxic, American cockroach, Plant extract, Heart rate, Dose dependent.

Abstract: The amount of data managed in many academic institutions has increased in recent years, particularly in all the research work done by undergraduate students, who simply use empirical techniques for keyword selection, forgetting existing technical methods to assist their students in this process. Information and communication technologies, such as the platform for integrated research and academic work with responsibility (PILAR), which records information about research projects, such as titles, summaries, and keywords in their various modalities, have gained relevance and importance in the management of these. We proved algorithms with these records of research projects that have been analysed in this study, and predictions were made for each of the nine (09) models of unsupervised machine learning algorithms that were implemented for each of the 7430 records from the dataset. The most efficient way of extracting keywords for this dataset was the TF-IDF method, obtaining 72% accuracy and [0.4786, SD 0.0501] in average extraction time for each thesis file processed by this model.

Dimension of Human Rights Protection Against Corporate Crimes
Authors: Kristian K.
Published: March 2022

The wave of influence of Neoliberalism and globalization with its system of economic capitalism has begun to change the economic ideology by ignoring sound principles in business dealings (there is even a tendency to put forward the “anomie of success” principle), a considerable number of corporations have committed acts in violation to human rights. This paper is going to examine the implementation of human rights-based protection and law enforcement. It has now become significant considering how critical thinking in solving corporate human rights violation problems is urgently needed. The type of approach used by the writer in this research is the Normative Law Research Method. The methods applied will consist of statute approach, case approach and conceptual approach. Research shows that Indonesia is a country of law. By this concept, principles contained in that country must be applied, one of them being the presence of the acknowledgement and protection of basic human rights. In the context of a country with Pancasila as its main law, the effectual supremacy of law in Indonesia must continually be done within a framework which focuses in creating public welfare and social justice for all Indonesian people. In this context, the human potential and dignity have a high and noble position. Regulation governing the protection of human rights may be found in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia and the 1999 Act of the Republic of Indonesia No. 39 concerning Human Rights. These human rights have frequently been violated by corporations while conducting their business activities. In international legal instruments, The United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) exists as an initiative to strategic policies for corporations to make a commitment which will align their policies and strategic operations with the ten universal principles of human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption, in order to allow sustainable business practices. Within the sphere of human rights, the UNGC states that “business should support and respect the protection of internationally proclaimed human rights” and “make sure that they are not complicit in human right abuses”, along with other alternatives that may be conducted by the corporations. For that, the country has a responsibility to provide devices by utilizing all its resources to create equality, non-discrimination and human rights protection for every citizen. The country has to do its part to calculate every possible way to allow for human rights protection and to facilitate the recovery over losses that may arise from the violation of human rights, especially those done by corporations.

Published: March 2022

Kota Yogyakarta hingga tahun 2018 tercatat memiliki jumlah penduduk sekitar 500 ribu jiwa. Peningkatan jumlah penduduk akibat urbanisasi berdampak pada kebutuhan akan lahan yang semakin tinggi sehingga menyebabkan dampak negatif terhadap perkembangan kota. Dampak negatif yang ditimbulkan adalah penurunan kualitas lingkungan salah satunya peristiwa efek pulau panas atau urban heat island (UHI). Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui distribusi spasial dan temporal perubahan penggunaan lahan dan UHI di wilayah perkotaan Yogyakarta tahun 1999-2019, serta mengidentifikasi hubungan antara tipe penggunaan lahan dan suhu permukaan. Data yang digunakan adalah citra Landsat dengan interval waktu 5 tahunan dari tahun 1999-2019. Metode pengukuran menggunakan metode penginderaan jauh dengan memanfaatkan citra Landsat. Pengolahan data yang dilakukan menggunakan pendekatan NDBI untuk mengetahui lahan terbangun, LST untuk mengetahui suhu permukaan, dan perhitungan UHI untuk mengetahui intensitas dan distribusi yang terjadi. Hasil pengolahan menunjukkan peningkatan intensitas UHI Pada tahun 1999 -2009 sebesar 0,08°C, dan pada tahun 2009- 2019 sebesar 0,1°C. Perkembangan UHI di Kota Yogyakarta dan sekitarnya mengalami peningkatan disebabkan oleh meningkatnya kebutuhan lahan terbangun yang mengakibatkan peningkatan suhu. Wilayah yang termasuk dalam cluster UHI tinggi cenderung memiliki titik panas. Lokasi yang menjadi sumber titik panas paling besar berada di Kecamatan Banguntapan, Depok, Gamping, Kasihan, Mlati, Sewon, dan Depok.

Quantum scrambling of observable algebras
Authors: Zanardi Paolo
Published: March 2022

In this paper we describe an algebraic/geometrical approach to quantum scrambling. Generalized quantum subsystems are described by an hermitian-closed unital subalgebra A of operators evolving through a unitary channel. Qualitatively, quantum scrambling is defined by how the associated physical degrees of freedom get mixed up with others by the dynamics. Quantitatively, this is accomplished by introducing a measure, the geometric algebra anti-correlator (GAAC), of the self-orthogonalization of the commutant of A induced by the dynamics. This approach extends and unifies averaged bipartite OTOC, operator entanglement, coherence generating power and Loschmidt echo. Each of these concepts is indeed recovered by a special choice of A. We compute typical values of GAAC for random unitaries, we prove upper bounds and characterize their saturation. For generic energy spectrum we find explicit expressions for the infinite-time average of the GAAC which encode the relation between A and the full system of Hamiltonian eigenstates. Finally, a notion of A-chaoticity is suggested.

This is marked by the emergence of a number of scholars who are famous for their various works and discuss various aspects related to the content of the holy book, one of which is Ibn Qutaibah who lived in the 3rd century AH with various monumental works such as the book Ta'wil Musykil Al- Quran. In this book, he displays takwil or explanations of various utterances that he considers musykil, so that with the takwil he did, then what was previously considered musykil seen to have become something clearer. The recitation of the pronunciation of the verse he chose not only uses reason alone, but also seen by considering the language factor, so that the recitation does not deviate from the rules of language. His efforts should help us to be more aware of the uniqueness of the language of the Qur'an itself, not even enough to get there, but also he has played an active role in making the people aware of the greatness of the Divine Word which is a guide for all human beings. Although his description musykil covers a lot of themes, but this simple writing only describes a few things, such as related to majaz, isti`arah, al-hazfu, words that have different meanings and related letters ma'ani.ABSTRAKKajian tentang Al-Quran dalam berbagai dimensinya senantiasa aktual sejak zaman klasik hingga kini. Hal ini ditandai dengan munculnya sejumlah ulama yang terkenal dengan berbagai karyanya dan membahas berbagai sisi terkait isi atau kandungan Kitab suci itu, salah satunya adalah Ibnu Qutaibah yang hidup pada abad ke 3 hijriyah dengan berbagai karya monumentalnya antara lain adalah kitab Ta'wil Musykil Al-Quran. Dalam kitab ini, beliau paparkan takwil atau penjelasan terhadap berbagai lafaz yang beliau anggap musykil, sehingga dengan takwil yang beliau lakukan, maka apa yang tadinya dipandang musykil terlihat telah menjadi sesuatu yang lebih jelas. Penakwilan terhadap lafaz ayat yang beliau pilih tidak hanya menggunakan nalar semata, tapi juga terlihat dengan mempertimbangkan faktor bahasa, sehingga takwil yang dilakukan tidak menyimpang dari kaidah bahasa. Upaya yang beliau lakukan kiranya dapat membantu kita untuk lebih menyadari akan keunikan gaya bahasa Al-Quran itu sendiri, bahkan tidak cukup sampai di situ, melainkan juga beliau telah berperan aktif untuk menyadarkan umat akan keagungan Kalam Ilahi yang menjadi petunjuk bagi sekalian manusia itu. Walaupun uraian beliau tentang takwil musykil itu memuat cakupan tema yang cukup banyak, namun tulisan yang sederhana ini hanya memaparkan beberapa hal saja, seperti terkait majaz, isti`arah, al-hazfu, lafaz yang memiliki makna yang berbeda serta terkait huruf ma'ani.

Indonesia is a tropical country with high intensity of sunlight. Exposure to high ultraviolet rays from sunlight on the skin for a long period of time brings negative impacts such as sunburn, erythema, and skin cancer. Counteracting the negative effects of sun exposure, natural sunscreens that are less toxic such as combination of Cinnamomum burmannii and Haematococcus pluvialis extracts are needed. Cinnamaldehyde as the high active compound in cinnamon extract is able to absorb UV-B rays due to a chromophore group in the form of an aromatic ring conjugated to carbonyl group, along astaxanthin content in the Haematococcus pluvialis which is able to ward off free radicals and has an anti-inflammatory function that the combination will be an effective sunscreen active ingredients. The study aims to develop an oil-in-the-water emulsion-type cream that is added as an active ingredient in a combination of Haematococcus pluvialis and Cinnamomum burmannii extracts to produce a sunscreen cream. The combination extracts was tested in vitro with a UV-Vis spectrophotometer and the SPF value. The cream was physically evaluated including homogeneity, spreadability, adhesion, viscosity, pH, and organoleptic tests as well as in vivo test using mice (Mus muculus). The results indicated that the cream formulas qualified for the physical standards, yet the viscosity value unqualified the standard . The in vitro test showed that the highest SPF value reached SPF 12 for the S2 formula with maximum category. In vivo test showed that the entire formula could protect the skin from exposure to UV-B rays by exoterra lamps.

Consumption of fast food and inadequate physical activity are important risk factors for overweight and obesity. The purpose of this study was to examine the associations of fast food consumption and physical activity with the nutritional status of adolescents in SMK Negeri 2 Tangerang Selatan 2019. The study was a cross-sectional design, conducted in April 2009. Participants were 269 vocational highschool students, aged 15-18 years. Information on fast food consumption was collected by Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). Logistic regression was used for analysis. The results of multivariate analysis showed that consumption of instant noodles and lack of physical activity were significantly associated with overweight and obesity in adolescents (p-value <0.05). The odds ratios (OR) for instant noodles consumption of ≥1 time/week and less physical activity were 2.310 (95% Confidence Interval [CI]: 1.292-4.132) and 1.937 (95% CI: 1.064-3.534), respectively. In conclusion, consumption of instant noodles ≥ 1 time/week and lack of physical activity were associated with an increased risk of overweight or obesity in the adolescent. This study recommended the importance of reducing fast-food consumption and increasing physical activity in order to prevent overweight or obesity in adolescents.
