“…Another point to be emphasized is that obesity in childhood increases the risk of loss of function in later life (7,13). Thus, it is important for the individuals with congenital diseases to organize their eating habits in order to reduce the possible disability due to loss of function in their future lives, and they should be guided to sufficient physical activity.…”

Aim: The objective is to examine the relationship between the musculoskeletal system (MSS)-based disability and the body mass index (BMI). Material and Method: The medical board reports (MBR) issued for patients in 2010, who applied for a disability report, were screened. From a total of 283 MBR's, 99 disability reports were included. BMI was calculated and the relationship between disability ratios and BMI was examined. Findings: Out of the 99 patients, 77 were male and 22 were female. The mean age was 46.7±17.8, the BMI was 25.5±5.7 kg/m², the total disability ratio (TDR) was 46±24% and the MSS disability ratio was 33±23%. Both the BMI and age of the patient were significantly correlated with TDR values (p<0.05). The female mean age, the TDR, MSS disability ratio and BMI were higher compared to males. However, only the TDR was statistically significantly higher (p<0.05). 46% of the disability reports were due to acquired diseases (most commonly caused by arthrosis), 37% injuries (most frequently falls, work accidents and firearm injuries) and 11% were for congenital diseases. It was determined that the most patients, had applied to The Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and the most affected region was the lower extremities. Conclusion: It was identified that the increase in BMI may have an increasing effect on the disability ratios as well as the positive effect of disability on BMI. This fact should be taken into consideration when the ratio of disability is calculated in health board reports.

“…Thus, an intervention to improve both obese children and parents' weight loss seems a logical strategy to more fully engage a family in fundamental changes to lifestyle behavior [32]. In another study from Turkey, Araz et al found a 27% obesity rate in the siblings of obese children and adolescents [33]. Our family-based approach seems to motivate both the child and other family members to change eating habits.…”

Aim: The study aims 1) to determine the clinical status of obese children at the admittance to the pediatric endocrinology referral center 2) to investigate the efficiency and compliance of the low-carb diet in a pediatric population with or without exercise, metformin Material and Methods: All subjects with the complaint of obesity and BMI percentile >95 were recruited from January 2012-August 2014. We evaluated basal retrospectively, recommended low carbohydrate family-wide eating practice and exercise to all, and metformin to selected cases, and recorded Self-reported adherence at first, third, sixth, and twelfth months. Results: Thirty-six subjects used metformin with a higher ratio of weight loss (90.0%, p=0.010) without a difference in the number of lost kilograms. In 160 cases without metformin; diet only, exercise only, and both diet and exercise groups lost weight significantly according to neither diet nor exercise group (OR:12.08, 95% CI 3.93-41.66, p<0.001; OR:3.04, 95% CI 1.18-7.84, p=0.022 and OR:32.80, 95% CI 7.14-150.77, p<0.001 respectively). Exercise plus diet (95.3%, p=0,002) and only diet (88.9%, p=0,023) were even more efficient than exercise alone (65.5%). In the twelfth month, 13.8% were on follow-up. Conclusion: Obesity gives rise to metabolic complications in the very early stages. A low carbohydrate diet proved to be acceptable and useful. Long-term consistency remains a challenge.

The aim of this study was to determine the relation between metabolic syndrome and anger in obese women. Material and Methods: The study included 78 obese women presenting to the diet outpatient clinic of Kahramanmaraş Onikişubat Public Health Center between 1 June and 30 August 2014. Results: The mean age of the participants was 38.1±11.1 years (min=18, max=62). Forty-two participants (53.8%) were diagnosed as metabolic syndrome, but 36 (46.2%) did not fulfill the criteria for the diagnosis of metabolic syndrome. Forty-six participants (59.0%) had obesity, 16 (20.5%) had severe obesity and 16 (20.5%) had morbid obesity. The participants diagnosed as metabolic syndrome had 21.1±5.4 and those without metabolic syndrome had 22.7±6.4 for the subscale of continuous anger. The participants with metabolic syndrome got significantly higher scores for continuous anger (p=0.011). The participants with metabolic syndrome and those without metabolic syndrome had similar scores for the subscale anger-in (p=0.058) and the subscale anger control (p=0.196). The participants with metabolic syndrome got significantly lower scores for the subscale anger-out (p=0.004). Conclusion: The study revealed that obese women diagnosed as metabolic syndrome had lower scores for Continuous Anger-Anger Manner Scale. Offering social and psychological support for people treated for obesity is important for mental health of these people. Follow-up of the patients offered treatment for obesity by a team including a psychiatrist can increase these patients' compliance with their diet and help to prevent comorbid psychopathologies.
