Relationship Between Night Eating Disorders and Obesity
Öz
Abstract
Objectives: Today, with the advance of technology, increasing factors that facilitate daily life have reduced the movement of people, leading to weight gain and obesity. Obesity is a growing problem in the world. Night eating disorders, (NED)s were classified as night eating syndrome and sleep related eating disorder. In the study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between night eating disorders and obesity.
Materials and Methods: The study was performed with 290 participants who have inclusion criteria and applied to Family Medicine Clinic for any reason between January-March 2015. Inclusion criteria were being over 18 years of age, having no psychological or chronic illness and accepting to answer the questionnaire. Participants who worked at night, had physical and psychological problems and had chronic illness were excluded from the study. The questionnaires were performed by doctors with face-to-face interview technique with the participants. In addition to socio-demographic factors, the criteria for NEDs were investigated and recorded. After this; the weight (kg), height (cm) and waist circumference (WC; cm) of all participants were measured. Participants were divided into two groups, according to BMI [obese (BMI ≥30 kg/m2) and non-obese (BMI <30 kg/m2)] and analyzed. A p value of p≤ 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant.
Results: Although there was no relation between gender, education status, economic status and night eating syndrome; age and obesity were related with night eating syndrome (p<0,001). There was no relation between age, gender, education status, economic status and sleep related eating disorder but obesity was related sleep related eating disorder (p<0.001).
Conclusion: We found that, there is a strong relationship between NEDs and obesity. For this reason, we think that the questioning of NEDs in obese patients is important for treatment.
