İzmir ilinde bir ortaokulda obezite ve beslenme alışkanlıklarının incelenmesi

Abstract

Amaç: Obezite, Dünya Sağlık Örgütü tarafından sağlık için risk oluşturan anormal veya aşırı yağ birikimi olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Obezite sanılanın aksine sadece yetişkinlerde sık görülen bir durum olmayıp, çocukluk çağında da ortaya çıkabilen kronik, multifaktöriyel bir hastalıktır. Bu çalışmada bir ortaokulda beslenme, ve yaşam alışkanlıkları ile obezitenin ilişkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı, kesitsel tipteki bu araştırma ortaokul öğrencileri arasında (10-14 yaş), toplam 284 öğrenci ile yürütülmüştür. Tüm öğrencilerde beden kitle indeksi, boya göre ağırlık, beden kitle indeksi persentil ve beden kitle indeksi standart sapma değerleri hesaplandı. Veriler SPSS versiyon 20 kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. P değeri <0.05 istatistiksel olarak anlamlı kabul edildi. Bulgular:Toplamda 284 çocuk çalışmaya dahil edildi: 159 erkek (%56.7) ve 125 kız (%43.3). Çalışma popülasyonunun yaş ortalaması 12.10±1.27 yıldı. Obezite ile fiziksel aktivite puanı arasında anlamlı bir ilişki saptanmadı (p=0.229). Çocuklarda obezite ile anne ve babada obezite arasında anlamlı bir ilişki saptandı (sırasıyla p=0.046, p=0.046). Sonuçlar:Çalışma, 10-14 yaş arası çocukların yaklaşık beşte birinin (%20,8) obez veya fazla kilolu olduğunu göstermiştir. Yine bu yaş grubunda obezite anne ve baba obezitesi ile ilişkili bulunmuş ve ailenin diyetinden etkilenmiştir. Bu sonuçlar daha ileri çalışmalarla desteklenmelidir.

Investigation of obesity and nutrition habits in a middle school in İzmir province

Abstract

Aim: Obesity is defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that presents risk for health by World Health Organization. Contrary to what is believed, obesity is not only a common condition among adults but it is a chronic, multifactorial disorder which may present at childhood. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between nutrition, living habits and obesity in a middle school. Material and Methods: This descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted with a total of 284 middle school students (10-14 years old). In all students, body mass index, weight for height, body mass index percentile and body mass index standart deviation values were calculated. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20. A p value<0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Results:Overall, 284 children were included to the study: 159 boys (56.7%) and 125 girls (43.3%). Mean age was 12.10±1.27 years in the study population. No significant correlation was detected between obesity and physical activity score (p=0.229). A significant correlation was detected between obesity in children and maternal and paternal obesity (p=0.046, p=0.046, respectively). Conclusions:The study showed that approximately one-fifth (20.8%) of children aged 10-14 years are obese or overweight. Again, in this age group, obesity was correlated with maternal and paternal obesity and affected by diet of the family. Physical activity might not be associated with obesity. These results should be supported by further studies.
