Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the relation between metabolic syndrome and anger in obese women. Material and Methods: The study included 78 obese women presenting to the diet outpatient clinic of Kahramanmaraş Onikişubat Public Health Center between 1 June and 30 August 2014. Results: The mean age of the participants was 38.1±11.1 years (min=18, max=62). Forty-two participants (53.8%) were diagnosed as metabolic syndrome, but 36 (46.2%) did not fulfill the criteria for the diagnosis of metabolic syndrome. Forty-six participants (59.0%) had obesity, 16 (20.5%) had severe obesity and 16 (20.5%) had morbid obesity. The participants diagnosed as metabolic syndrome had 21.1±5.4 and those without metabolic syndrome had 22.7±6.4 for the subscale of continuous anger. The participants with metabolic syndrome got significantly higher scores for continuous anger (p=0.011). The participants with metabolic syndrome and those without metabolic syndrome had similar scores for the subscale anger-in (p=0.058) and the subscale anger control (p=0.196). The participants with metabolic syndrome got significantly lower scores for the subscale anger-out (p=0.004). Conclusion: The study revealed that obese women diagnosed as metabolic syndrome had lower scores for Continuous Anger-Anger Manner Scale. Offering social and psychological support for people treated for obesity is important for mental health of these people. Follow-up of the patients offered treatment for obesity by a team including a psychiatrist can increase these patients’ compliance with their diet and help to prevent comorbid psychopathologies.

Obez Kadınlarda Metabolik Sendrom ve Öfke Arasındaki İlişkisinin Belirlenmesi

Abstract

Giriş: Bu çalışmada obez kadınlarda metabolik sendrom (MtS) ve öfke arasındaki ilişkinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Materyal ve Metod: Bu çalışmaya Kahramanmaraş Onikişubat Toplum Sağlığı Merkezi diyetisyen polikliniğine 01.06.2014-30.08.2014 tarihleri arasında başvuran 78 obez kadın alındı. Bulgular: Katılımcıların yaş ortalaması 38.1±11.1 (min=18, max=62) olarak saptandı. Kadınların 42’sine (%53.8) MtS tanısı konulurken, 36’sı (%46.2) MtS tanı kriterlerini karşılamamaktaydı. Katılımcıların 46’sı (%59.0) obez, 16’si (%20.5) şiddetli obez, 16’sı (%20.5) morbid obez olarak saptandı. SÖÖTÖ alt bölümlerinde alınan puanlar incelendiğinde MtS tanısı konulan olguların sürekli öfke ölçek puanı 21.1±5.4, MtS tanısı konulmayan bireylerin ise 22.7±6.4 olarak saptandı. MtS tanılı olguların sürekli öfke ölçek puanı, MtS tanısı konulmayanlara göre anlamlı seviyede yüksekti (p=0.011). MtS tanılı ve tanısız kadınların öfke içe vurumu ölçek puanı (p=0.058) ve öfke kontrolü ölçek puanı (p=0.196) benzer olarak saptandı. Öfke-dışa vurumu ölçek puanı MtS’li bireylerde, MtS’siz bireylere göre anlamlı düzeyde düşük olarak belirlendi (p=0.004). Sonuç: Çalışmamızda MtS tanılı olan obez kadınların SÖÖTÖ puanlarının, MtS tanısı konulmayanlara göre düşük olduğu belirlendi. Obezite tedavisi olan bireylere sosyal ve psikolojik destek vermek, bireyin ruh sağlığı için çok önemlidir. Obezite tedavisi başlanan hastaların psikiyatri hekimlerinin de bulunduğu bir ekip tarafından takip edilmesi hastaların diyete uyumunu artırılabilir ve komorbid psikopatolojilerin önlenmesi sağlanabilir.
