Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine serum lipid, cholesterol and obesity levels in healthy children, and then to explore the relationships between these factors. Methods: The sample group consisted of 103 students at Gelik Elementary School in Zonguldak, Turkey who was willing to participate in the study, had not been medically diagnosed with a chronic ailment, and were not taking regular medications. Results: When the students' mean BMI (Body Mass Index )measurements were considered, it was found that mean BMI at 13 years of age (21.03 ± 0.23) was higher than at 14 years (20.05 ± 0.20) and that this difference was strongly significant (p=0.002). When the relationships between the students' height, weight, BMI, blood pressure, FBS (Fasting Blood Sugar), cholesterol, LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein), HDL (High Density Lipoprotein) measurements were considered, it was seen that there was a positive significant relationship between height-weight (r=0.472; p

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı sağlıklı çocuklarda serum lipit, kolesterol ve obezite seviyesini tespit ederek, bunlar arasında ilişki olup olmadığını araştırmaktır. Yöntemler: Örneklem grubunu Nisan-Mayıs 2011 tarihleri arasında Zonguldak\'ta Gelik ilköğretim okuluna devam eden, hekim tarafından tanı konulmuş kronik hastalığı ve sürekli kullandığı bir ilacı olmayan ve araştırmaya katılmayı kabul eden 103 öğrenci oluşturdu. Bulgular: Öğrencilerin yaşları ile VKİ (Vücut Kitle İndeksi) ortalamalarına bakıldığında; 13 yaşta VKİ ortalaması (21,03 ± 0,23), 14 yaşa göre (20,05 ± 0,20) daha yüksek olup bu farklılığın istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olduğu bulundu (p=0,002). Öğrencilerin boy, ağırlık, VKİ, tansiyon, AKŞ (Açlık Kan Şekeri), kolesterol, LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein), HDL (High Density Lipoprotein) seviyeleri arasındaki ilişkiye bakıldığında; boy-ağırlık (r=0,472; p
