Amaç: Çalışmada, obez çocuklarda sol ventrikül diyastolik fonksiyonlarının incelenmesi ve bu incelemelerin asemptomatik olguların erken dönemde tespitine katkısının değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya obezite tanısı ile izlenen 50 obez hasta (vücut kitle indeksi (VKİ) persantili > 95) ve benzer yaş / cinsiyetteki 50 sağlıklı çocuk ile adolesan alındı. Sol ventrikül fonksiyonlarını değerlendirilmesi için tüm hastalara iki boyutlu, M-Mod, Pulse Wave Doppler ve Doku Doppler tekniklerini içerecek şekilde ekokardiyografik incelemeler yapıldı.Bulgular: Obezlerin sol ventrikül yapısında anlamlı değişiklikler mevcuttu. Sol ventrikül enddiyastolik çap (LVED) ve sol atriyum çapı, interventriküler septum (İVS) ve sol ventrikül arka duvar kalınlıkları (LVPW ) obez hastalarda artmıştı (sırasıyla p:0.00001, p:0.00001, p:0.00001, p:0.00001). Sol ventrikül kütlesi ve kütle indeksi anlamlı şekilde yüksekti (sırasıyla p=0.001, p=0.04). Obez grupta doppler parametreleri de diyastolik disfonksiyonu destekliyordu. Mitral A değeri yüksek, transmitral E/A oranı düşük ve deselerasyon zamanı uzamıştı (sırasıyla p:0.00001, p:0.00001, p:0.00001). Pulmoner venöz akım örnekleri (PVa, PVd, PVs) sol ventrikül diyastol sonu basıncının arttığını göstermekteydi. Doku Doppler parametreleri de obez grupta diyastolik disfonsiyon ile uyumluydu. İzovolumik relaksasyon zamanı (İVRT), izovolumik kontraksiyon zamanı (İCT) uzun ve ejeksiyon zamanı (ET) obezlerde belirgin olarak azalmış bulundu. Dolayısıyla miyokard performans indeksi (MPİ) obez grupta kontrol grubu ile karşılaştırıldığında anlamlı derecede artmıştı (p=0.001).Sonuç: Sonuç olarak, obezite asemptomatik dönemde sistolik fonksiyonlar bozulmadan diyastolik fonksiyonları etkileyebilmektedir ve bu dönemde kardiyak değerlendirme yapılırken konvansiyonel yöntemler yetersiz kalabilmektedir. Bu nedenle, obez hastaların değerlendirmesinde subklinik miyokardiyal bozulmayı gösterebilmesi nedeniyle doku Doppler incelemesine de gereksinim olacağı akılda tutulmalıdır.
Objective: The aim of this study was to examine left ventricular (LV) diastolic function in obese patients and to evaluate the benefits of these findings in the early detection of asymptomatic cases.Material and Methods: Fifty children diagnosed with obesity (body mass index (BMI) > 95th percentile) and fifty healthy children and adolescents of similar age and gender were evaluated. Complete echocardiographic examination including two-dimensional, M-Mode, Pulse Wave Doppler and tissue Doppler techniques were used to evaluate left ventricular functions.results: Obese patients had significant differences in LV structure. Left ventricule end-diastolic diameter and left atrium diameter, and left ventricle septal and posterior wall thicknesses were higher in the obese group compared to the nonobese group (p:0.00001, p:0.00001, p:0.00001, p:0.00001 respectively). Left ventricular mass and mass index were significantly increased (p=0,001 and p=0,04). In addition, Doppler echocardiography parameters of the left ventricle demonstrated left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in the obese group. Pulmonary venous flow Doppler parameters and tissue Doppler parameters of the mitral annulus’ septal and lateral parts revealed diastolic dysfunction in the obese group. Isovolumetric relaxation time (IVRT) and isovolumetric contraction time (ICT) were prolonged, ejection time (ET) was significantly decreased and myocardial performance index (MPI) was increased in the obese group compared to the controls (p=0.0001)

The publication language of Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease is English.
Manuscripts submitted to the Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease will go through a double-blind peer-review process. Each submission will be reviewed by at least two external, independent peer reviewers who are experts in the field, in order to ensure an unbiased evaluation process. The editorial board will invite an external and independent editor to manage the evaluation processes of manuscripts submitted by editors or by the editorial board members of the journal. The Editor in Chief is the final authority in the decision-making process for all submissions. Articles accepted for publication in the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics are put in the order of publication, with at least 10 original articles in each issue, taking into account the acceptance dates. If the articles sent to the reviewers for evaluation are assessed as a senior for publication by the reviewers, the section editor and the editor considering all aspects (originality, high scientific quality and citation potential), it receives publication priority in addition to the articles assigned for the next issue.
The aim of the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics is to publish high-quality original research articles that will contribute to the international literature in the field of general pediatric health and diseases and its sub-branches. It also publishes editorial opinions, letters to the editor, reviews, case reports, book reviews, comments on previously published articles, meeting and conference proceedings, announcements, and biography. In addition to the field of child health and diseases, the journal also includes articles prepared in fields such as surgery, dentistry, public health, nutrition and dietetics, social services, human genetics, basic sciences, psychology, psychiatry, educational sciences, sociology and nursing, provided that they are related to this field. can be published.
