Öğe Association between adherence to the Mediterranean diet with anthropometric measurements and nutritional status in adolescents(Aran Ediciones, S L, 2023) Kocaadam-Bozkurt, Betul; Ermumcu, Merve Seyda Karacil; Govez, Nazlican Erdogan; Bozkurt, Osman; Akpinar, Serife; Celik, Ozge Mengi; Koksal, EdaBackground: adolescence is a critical period for developing healthy eating habits. It is crucial to evaluate and encourage adherence to the Mediterranean diet, a sustainable and healthy diet model in this age group.Objective: this study aimed to evaluate the relationship between adherence to the Mediterranean diet and anthropometric measurements and nutritional status in Turkish adolescents.Material and methods: the demographic characteristics, health information, nutritional habits, physical activity status, and 24-hour dietary recall of the adolescents were obtained with a questionnaire. Adherence to Mediterranean diet was evaluated with the Mediterranean-Style Dietary Pattern Score (MSDPS).Results: a total of 1,137 adolescents (mean age 14.0 & PLUSMN; 1.37 years) were included; 30.2 % of the boys and 39.5 % of the girls were overweight/ obese. The median (interquartile range) value of the MSDPS was 10.7 (7.7), and this value was 11.0 (7.6) for the boys and 10.6 (7.4) for the girls (p > 0.05). The levels of protein, fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C, folate, vitamin B12, iron, magnesium, zinc, and potassium intake increased with adherence to Mediterranean diet (p < 0.001). Age, parental education level, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, and skipping meals affected MSDPS.Conclusion: adolescents' adherence to the Mediterranean diet was low and correlated with some anthropometric measures. Increasing adherence to the Mediterranean diet may contribute to preventing obesity and adequate and balanced nutrition in adolescents.Öğe Association between ecological footprint awareness and health literacy in adults: a population-based study from Turkey(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024) Celik, Ozge Mengi; Koksal, Eda; Akpinar, Serife; Kocaadam-Bozkurt, Betul; Govez, Nazlican Erdogan; Daziroglu, Merve Esra Citar; Ermumcu, Merve Seyda KaracilThis study aimed to determine the relationship between health literacy and ecological footprint which is an indicator of sustainability and environmental impact and to examine the factors that may affect them. It was found that 20.3% of individuals have inadequate, 43.7% problematic, 26.1% sufficient and 10.0% excellent health literacy levels. There were differences in age, education level and BMI classification according to Ecological Footprint Awareness Scale score quartiles and health literacy levels (p < 0.05). It was determined that age and Turkey Health Literacy Scale score had effect on ecological footprint awareness. Individuals with a high level of health literacy have a high awareness of their ecological footprint. The increase in people's health literacy levels and ecological footprint awareness with age can be interpreted as the increase in people's education and knowledge levels and their awareness levels against the protection of nature and the environment.Öğe Comparison of Nutritional Habits, Physical Activity Levels and Quality of Life among Normal Cognition Elderly Individuals Living in Nursing Homes or at Their Residence(Taiwan Soc Geriatric Emergency & Critical Care Medicine-Tsgecm, 2019) Duran, Sedef; Ozdinc, Sevgi; Celik, Ozge Mengi; Selcuk, Halit; Sonmez, Zehra SerayBackground: The process of ageing affects an individual's nutritional status, quality of life and physical activity level. This study aimed to compare these parameters among elderly individuals living either in nursing homes or at their residence. Methods: The study included 88 elderly individuals aged >= 65 years, 59 living at their residence and 29 in a official nursing home. The patients' sociodemographic characteristics, quality of life, physical activity levels, hand-grip strength and nutritional habits were evaluated. Results: The mean ages of those individuals living in nursing homes and at their own residence were 72.58 +/- 6.62 and 68.39 +/- 3.89 years, respectively. Those living in nursing homes skipped meals less frequently. Therefore, their energy and nutrient intake levels were significantly higher than in those living at their residence (p <0.05). Regarding quality of life, those living in nursing homes provided more favourable responses to questions regarding emotional role difficulties and social functioning subscales (p < 0.05). No difference was observed between the two groups in terms of physical activity levels and hand-grip strength (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Compared with those living at their residence, elderly individuals living in official nursing homes were less likely to skip meals and therefore had better energy and nutrient intake levels. They also demonstrated better quality of life in terms of social functioning subscales and emotional role difficulties.

The demographic characteristics, anthropometric measurements, nutritional habits, attitudes toward healthy eating, and cooking and food preparation skills were questioned. 16.2% of the students have moderate, 63.5% high, and 20.3% ideally high attitudes toward healthy eating. While a positive and significant correlation was found between the total score and sub-factor scores of the Cooking Skills and Food Skills scale and the total score of the Attitude Scale for Healthy Nutrition; a negative statistically significant correlation was found between the total score and sub-factor scores of the Cooking Skills and Food Skills scale and the frequency of consumption of fast-food, processed meat products, packaged foods, and bread types (p < .05). Cooking and food preparation skills seem to be positively associated with healthy attitudes and habits. Considering this positive association, interventions to improve food and cooking skills may help promote healthy eating attitudes in college students. Developing these skills can shed light on increasing the frequency of cooking at home, consuming healthier foods, and as a result, providing a healthy eating attitude. Therefore, more comprehensive intervention studies are needed in this area.Öğe Effects of Diurnal Ramadan Intermittent Fasting on Cardiometabolic Risk Factors and Sleep Quality in Healthy Turkish Adults(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2022) Celik, Ozge Mengi; Kocak, Tevfik; Koksal, EdaThis study aimed to evaluate the effect of diurnal Ramadan fasting on cardiometabolic risk factors (blood glucose, lipid profile, inflammatory cytokines) and sleep quality in healthy Turkish adults. This prospective observational study was conducted with a total of 32 individuals (12 males, 20 females) who were aged between 19-32 years and fasted for 25 or more continuous days in Ankara, Turkey between 1 Ramadan 1442 and 30 Ramadan 1442. Individuals applied fasting for 16 hours in the spring season. Blood samples were taken after at least 8 hours of fasting, anthropometric measurements were taken and sleep quality was assessed using The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) at the beginning and the end of Ramadan. There was a significant decrease in body mass index (BMI), C-reactive protein (CRP), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) levels during Ramadan fasting (p < .005). There were no changes in lipid profiles and sleep quality. There was a significant increase in fasting blood glucose levels (p < .05); however, this change is within normal limits. There was also a significant relationship between BMI and CRP, IL-6, and TNF-alpha levels (p < .05). The diurnal Ramadan fasting did not affect lipid profiles and sleep quality in healthy Turkish subjects. However, decreased BMI and inflammatory cytokine levels were observed at the end of Ramadan fasting. More studies are needed to clarify the role of Ramadan fasting in healthy populations.Öğe Evaluation of Academicians' Levels of Nutritional Knowledge and Adherence to the Mediterranean Diet(Duzce Univ, Fac Medicine, 2023) Celik, Ozge Mengi; Duran, Sedef; Sahin, Erkan MelihObjective: In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the nutritional knowledge levels of academicians and their adherence to the Mediterranean diet.Methods: The research data were collected face to face with the help of a questionnaire created by the researchers. Demographic characteristics, anthropometric measurements, nutritional habits, nutritional knowledge levels and adherence to the Mediterranean diet were questioned with the questionnaire form. Nutritional knowledge levels of individuals were evaluated with the 'Nutrition Knowledge Level Scale for Adults (NKLSA)'. Mediterranean diet pattern characteristics were identified with the 'Mediterranean diet adherence score (MEDAS)'.Results: The mean age of the individuals was 40.2 & PLUSMN;9.20 years, 42.2% of individuals were overweight and 7.8% are obese. 8.4% of the individuals had bad, 24.7% moderate, 44.8% good, 22.1% very good basic nutrition knowledge levels. 7.1% of the individuals had bad, 26.6% moderate, 27.9% good, 38.3% very good knowledge levels about food preference. 68.2% of individuals were in compliance with the Mediterranean diet. A statistically significant difference was found between individuals who did and did not comply with the Mediterranean diet in terms of the total score of NKLSA, basic nutrition knowledge score and food preference knowledge score (p<0.05).Conclusions: It was determined that the majority of academicians were in compliance with the Mediterranean diet and their nutritional knowledge level was good. However, half of the academicians were determined to be overweight or obese, which is a risk factor for noncommunicable chronic diseases.Öğe Evaluation of nutrition literacy and nutrition knowledge level in nursing students: a study from Turkey(Bmc, 2022) Celik, Ozge Mengi; Semerci, RemziyeObjectiveThe determination of nutritional knowledge and nutrition literacy among nursing students will enable nursing departments to establish the needs and solutions to enhance nutrition education in their education programs. Therefore, this study is aimed to evaluate the nutrition literacy and nutrition knowledge level of nursing students. MethodThe study data were collected with 'Information Form', 'Anthropometric Measurements', 'Nutrition Knowledge Level Scale for Adults', and 'Evaluation Instrument of Nutrition Literacy on Adults'. Analyzes were performed using descriptive and nonparametric tests. ResultsThe score of nutrition knowledge is 56.6 & PLUSMN; 6.8 and 50.5% of them have a good nutrition knowledge level. The total nutrition literacy score is 28.6 & PLUSMN; 4.4 and 91.6% of them have a sufficient nutrition literacy level. It was no significant difference between students' characteristic features and nutrition knowledge score and nutrition literacy total score (p > 0.05). There was a statistically significant positive correlation between the nutrition knowledge score and the nutrition literacy total score and the nutrition literacy sub-sections scores (p < 0.05). ConclusionIt has been determined that the nutrition knowledge and nutrition literacy levels of nursing students correlated with each other. To improve students' nutrition knowledge levels, as well as to improve their nutrition literacy and prevent non-communicable diseases nutrition lessons should be included in the curriculum.Öğe Investigation of psychometric properties of Turkish version of nursing students? attitudes and beliefs towards Childhood Obesity Scale(W B Saunders Co-Elsevier Inc, 2023) Semerci, Remziye; Celik, Ozge Mengi; Kudubes, Asli AkdenizAim: This study aimed to evaluate the Turkish psychometric properties of The Attitudes and Beliefs of Nursing Students Towards the Childhood Overweight Scale. Methods: The study was conducted with 219 nursing students. The data were obtained with the 'Information Form' and the 'Attitudes and Beliefs of Nursing Students Towards Childhood Overweight. Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology guidelines was implemented in the study. Result: Original scale was created using the Attitudes Towards Obese Person Scale (ATOP) and the Beliefs About Obese Persons Scale (BAOP). ATOP consists of 13 items and two sub-dimensions (self-concept, social relationships) in a 5-point Likert type that evaluates nursing students' attitudes towards childhood obesity. BAOP is 5point Likert-type and consists of 6 items that evaluate nursing students' beliefs on childhood obesity. When the item-total score correlations were examined in the study, two items showing a negative correlation in the ATOP were removed. Cronbach's alpha was 0.80 for the ATOP and 0.83 for the BAOP. In the exploratory EFA and confirmatory CFA factor analyses, the factor loading of all items was >0.40 for both scales. Conclusion: It was determined that Turkish psychometric properties of the Nursing Students' Attitudes and Beliefs towards Childhood Obesity Scales were valid and reliable.
