Differences In Lipid Profiles Based on Physical Activity Levels Among First-Year Students In a Medical Education Research Program

Regular physical activity with adequate intensity, according to WHO recommendations, can prevent various chronic diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes mellitus, cancer, and bone disease. Physical improve lipid profil: triglycerides, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol (HDL-C), LDL (LDL-C). The aim of this study was compare profiles, which include levels (LDL-C) at different activity: low, medium, high activity. This an observational analytic using a cross-sectional study. subjects were 93 first year students the Medical Study Program, Faculty Medicine, University Mataram. level assessed International Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) questionnaire profile measured enzymatic calorimetric method. Kruskal-Wallis test performed assess comparison triglyceride between groups medium levels, One-way ANOVA for LDL-C HDL-C Post Hoc LSD HDL-C. Of subjects, 36 (38.71%) had low activity, 49 (52.69%) moderate only 8 (8.6%) There significant difference in high-moderate (p=0.006), high-low medium-low (p=0.022). Based on results study, it be concluded that there are differences all Regular, intensity increase
