Abstract

Aim: There are little published data exploring mindful eating in diabetic population, and no work evaluating the relationship betweenmindful eating and metabolic parameters; thus, the purpose of this study was to examine the relationships of eating awareness to BMIand metabolic parameters among of obese individuals with type 2 diabetes

Material and Methods: In this cross-sectional study files of 94 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients who applied to Necmettin ErbakanUniversity Meram Medical Faculty Hospital Diet Clinic were examined. Participants completed the 30-item Mindful EatingQuestionnaire, consisting of five subscales (Disinhibition, Awareness, External Cues, Emotional Response, and Distraction) and dataabout height, weight, and sociodemography, duration of disease and metabolic parameters like fasting blood glucose, lipid profile, wererecorded and analyzed.

Results: In our study population, 26.6% (n=25) of the patients were male and 73.4% (n=69) were female. Correlation analysis resultsdemonstrated that lower mindful eating scores were associated significantly with higher BMI, weight, glucose and urea levels.

Conclusion: When evaluating obesity and diabetes diseases, it should be considered that mindful eating levels of patients may interact withanthropometric data and metabolic parameters. In order to manage these diseases, mindful eating is an issue that needs to be emphasized.

Tip 2 Diyabetli Obez Bireylerin Yeme Farkındalığı Düzeyleri ile Metabolik Parametreleri Arasındaki İlişki

Abstract

Amaç: Diyabetik popülasyonda yeme farkındalığını araştıran çok az yayınlanmış çalışma vardır ve yeme farkındalığı ile metabolikparametreler arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendiren bir çalışma yoktur; Bu nedenle, bu çalışmanın amacı, tip 2 diyabetli obez bireyler arasındayeme farkındalığının beden kütle indeksi (BKİ) ile bazı metabolik parametreler arasındaki ilişkilerini incelemektir.

Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu kesitsel çalışmada, Necmettin Erbakan Üniversitesi Meram Tıp Fakültesi Hastanesi Diyet Kliniğine başvuran94 tip 2 diabetes mellitus hastasının dosyaları incelendi. Katılımcılar, beş alt boyuttan (disinhibisyon, farkındalık, dış etkenler, duygusalcevap ve dikkat dağılması) oluşan 30 maddelik yeme farkındalığı ölçeğini doldurdu ve boy, kilo, hastalık süresi ve açlık kan glukozu, lipitprofili gibi metabolik parametreleri kaydedildi ve analiz edildi.

Bulgular: Çalışma popülasyonumuzda hastaların % 26.6’sı (n = 25) erkek,% 73.4’ü (n = 69) kadındı. Korelasyon analizi sonuçları, düşükyeme farkındalığı puanlarının, yüksek BMI, kilo, glukoz ve üre seviyeleri ile anlamlı şekilde ilişkili olduğunu göstermiştir.

Sonuç: Obezite ve diyabet hastalıklarını değerlendirirken hastaların yeme farkındalık düzeylerinin antropometrik verilerle ve metabolikparametrelerle etkileşim içinde olabileceği göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır. Bu hastalıkların yönetilmesinde yeme farkındalığı oluşturmaüzerinde durulması gereken bir konudur.
