    © 2015 W. Aekplakorn et al. Objectives. To determine the dietary patterns of middle-aged Thais and their association with metabolic syndrome (MetS). Methods. The Thai National Health Examination Survey IV data of 5,872 participants aged ≥30-59 years were used. Dietary patterns were obtained by factor analysis and their associations with Mets were examined using multiple logistic regression. Results. Three major dietary patterns were identified. The first, meat pattern, was characterized by a high intake of red meat, processed meat, and fried food. The second, healthy pattern, equated to a high intake of beans, vegetables, wheat, and dairy products. The third, high carbohydrate pattern, had a high intake of glutinous rice, fermented fish, chili paste, and bamboo shoots. Respondents with a healthy pattern were more likely to be female, higher educated, and urban residents. The carbohydrate pattern was more common in the northeast and rural areas. Compared with the lowest quartile, the highest quartile of carbohydrate pattern was associated with MetS (adjusted odds ratio: 1.82; 95% CI 1.31, 2.55 in men and 1.60; 95% CI 1.24, 2.08 in women), particularly among those with a low level of leisure time physical activity (LTPA). Conclusion. The carbohydrate pattern with low level of LTPA increased the odds of MetS.

    © JOURNAL OF THE MEDICAL ASSOCIATION OF THAILAND | 2020. Objective: To investigate the effects of an arm swing exercise program and to compare them with standard treatment outcomes in post-menopausal women with pre-hypertension. Materials and Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted with two treatment groups (n=42 each) for 12 weeks. The arm swing exercise program was performed by the experimental group. Eighty-four post-menopausal women with prehypertension underwent an examination to measure their blood pressure, heart rate, and cardiorespiratory fitness at the beginning of the study and after three months and six months in training. Results: After completing the arm swing exercise program, systolic blood pressure in the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group (p<0.05) at three months and, six months. Heart rate and cardiorespiratory fitness improved, although there were no significant differences when both treatments were compared. The effects of time and interaction of treatment in systolic blood pressure, heart rate, and cardiorespiratory fitness were significantly different at different time points in the experimental group (p<0.01, <0.01, and <0.01, respectively). Conclusion: The arm swing exercise program had an effect on systolic blood pressure reduction and cardiorespiratory fitness improvement in post-menopausal women with pre-hypertension.
