Assessment of serum electrolytes, nutritional status, and oxygen saturation among athletic Senior High School students
Adolescent athletes have a higher risk of dehydration than adult athletes do. This increased risk results from the greater absorption of environmental heat and heightened body heat, which affects electrolyte balance and oxygen saturation. This study aimed to analyze electrolyte values and oxygen saturation in students at SMA Keberbakatan Aceh in 2024 using an observational analytical approach with a cross-sectional design. A total of 43 respondents were selected for this study. The intensity of physical exercise was assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) score, of which two respondents had hyponatremia, 40 had normal sodium levels, and one respondent had hypernatremia related to the intensity of physical exercise (p= 0,381). Potassium levels were not significantly affected, as all 43 respondents had normal potassium levels (p= 0,740). Regarding chloride levels, one respondent had hypochloremia, 40 had normal levels, and two had hyperchloremia. While previous results showed no effect, exercise intensity was found to have a significant influence on respondents’ nutritional status (p= 0,034). All respondents maintained levels within normal limits in the assessment of oxygen saturation. Conclusion: Physical exercise intensity had no significant effect on serum electrolytes or oxygen saturation levels. However, a significant relationship was observed between the physical exercise intensity and nutritional status

Energy, macronutrients, and sensory characteristics of gluten-and casein-free (GFCF) mocaf biscuits substituted with kidney bean and keluih seed flour for children with autism
Autism is often associated with macronutrient deficiencies due to food sensory preferences, as well as gluten and casein allergies, which can trigger digestive disorders. In this study, gluten- and casein-free (GFCF) biscuits were developed by substituting kidney bean flour and keluih seed flour, followed by an evaluation of their energy content, macronutrient composition, and sensory characteristics to determine the best formulation. Four formulas were tested: F0 (100:0:0), F1 (30:52.5:17.5), F2 (30:35:35), and F3 (30:17.5:52.5). Macronutrient content was analyzed using standard laboratory methods (Kjeldahl, Soxhlet, and difference), whereas energy was calculated based on macronutrients. The hedonic test involved 50 untrained panelists, and statistical analysis was conducted using One-Way ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis test, and a multi-attribute decision compensatory model. The biscuits contained 432–455 kcal of energy, 3-8% protein, 30-32% fat, and 32-40% carbohydrate. Significant differences were observed in energy (P =0,028), protein (P <0,001), fat (P =0,005), and carbohydrate (P <0,001), as well as sensory preferences for taste (P <0,001), aroma (P =0,002), and overall preference (P =0,017). F1 was selected as the best formulation because of its favorable sensory score and balanced nutrient content. Kidney bean flour improved protein and sensory properties, while keluih seed flour increased energy and fat but lowered preference levels. This product offers practical potential as a GFCF snack to support the dietary management of children with autism
