    (Galenos Publ House, 2022) Jorayev, Maksat; Turkmenoglu, Yelda; Dursun, Hasan; Ozkaya, Ozan
    Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the anxiety status as well as behaviors and attitudes of mothers about nutrition of their children. Materials and Methods: Mothers of the children between 2 and 5 years of age, who thought that their children had feeding problems, were enrolled into the study. Beyond demographic characteristics, mothers were asked about their feeding behavior by using a child nutrition questionnaire. Body weight and body length measurements of the children were performed; body mass indexes (BMI) were calculated. Percentile (p) values depending on the age and gender were compared with the answers given to the questionnaire. Results: The mean age of the two hundred and eighty-five children was 3.8 +/- 1.0 years and 127 (44.6%) of them were girls. Two hundred and seventy six (96.8%) children had weight between 3 and 97 p whereas 9 (3.2%) children had body weight above 97 p; 47 (16.5%) children were overweighed and 30 (10.5%) children were obese. The mean responsibility grade of mothers about feeding their children was 35 points for children whose bodyweight were between 3 and 97 p, and 30 points for those with bodyweight above 97 p (p=0.010). Conclusion: It was detected that 27% of the children whose mothers thought that their child had a feeding problem had BMI over normal range. Mothers do not have sufficient information that may constitute positive samples while feeding their children, and they should be informed about feeding attitudes and habits by healthcare professionals by considering body measures of the child.

    (Galenos Yayincilik, 2018) Duras, Ensar; Bezen, Diğdem; Özkaya, Ozan; Dursun, Hasan
    INTRODUCTION: Quality of life level is very important in chronic diseases. We aimed to determine the quality of life level in children and adolescents diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus and to conduct a comparative study with healthy peers. We also evaluated the relationship between the results and socio-demographic characteristics of the children and their families. METHODS: Forty-five children aged between 4-16 who were followed-up with the diagnosis of type 1 diabetes mellitus and a control group of 45 healthy children who were referred to the general pediatrics outpatient clinic with the similar demographic characteristics were included in the study. Sociodemographic form and the Quality of Life for Children Scale (KINDL) had been applied to all children. We also recorded the background data like diagnosis, age or any additional diseases. RESULTS: The total quality of life score was found to be 73,9 +/- 9,1 in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus, and 81,7 +/- 10,2 in the control group. Comparing the subscales of the quality of life scale, the emotional well - being, self - esteem, friend and school subscale scores of 8-12 year-old children with type 1 diabetes mellitus were statistically significantly lower than healthy group (p=0,032, p=0,041, p=0,047, p=0,029, respectively). On the other hand, there was a statistically significant difference with the scores of friend subscale in children at the age of 13-16 (p=0,043). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: The quality of life of children with type 1 diabetes mellitus was significantly lower than that of the healthy children. We believe that psychosocial support from the time of diagnosis is needed for these children to improve the level of quality of life.
