“…Nurses should promote healthy food consumption in young adults, because an unhealthy diet is likely to increase the risk of obesity and T2DM in the long term. Additionally, females reported higher physical inactivity than males in the present study, which correlated with the studies of Çolak 32 and Moor et al 16 Enhancing motivation and self‐awareness of daily physical activity may help change physical activity behaviors.…”

“…Additionally, 61.7% of the males and 65.4% of the females were classified as low risk. The data obtained showed results similar to studies conducted with university students in Northern Cyprus by Gezer, 31 in Turkey by Demirağ et al 28 and Çolak, 32 in Jordan by Al‐Shudifat et al, 33 in the United States by Hamman et al, 7 and in Poland by Morawiec et al 29 However, although the majority of male and female students were classified in the low‐risk group in the present study, both females and males demonstrated low consumption of fruit and vegetables. Nurses should promote healthy food consumption in young adults, because an unhealthy diet is likely to increase the risk of obesity and T2DM in the long term.…”

Background Understanding gender differences in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity risk among university students is critical for the development of health promotion interventions. Mindful eating focuses on how and why eating behavior occurs rather than what is eaten. Current research on this topic is limited in the university‐aged population. Purpose The aim of this study was to (1) assess gender differences in risk of developing T2DM and elevated body mass index (BMI)/obesity; (2) explore the mindful eating levels according to the gender perspective; and (3) evaluate the relationship between mindful eating, BMI, and the risk of T2DM among young Turkish adults. Method This cross‐sectional correlational study was conducted in Karabuk University University, Turkey, during the 2017–2018 university calendar year. Eight hundred young adults were selected by the convenience sampling method. Data analyses used were the independent t test and Pearson correlational statistics. Results BMI values of males were significantly higher than those of females (p < 0.01). There were no significant differences between males and females regarding the risk of developing T2DM (p > 0.05). Mindful eating was significantly associated with BMI and the risk of developing T2DM in the young adult populations (p < 0.01). Conclusions Our findings can provide a basic reference for developing interventions that improve healthy eating habits and weight‐loss strategies.

“…Öğrencilerin %67.1'i düşük risk grubunda olup 10 yıllık tip 2 diyabet riskinin %1, %28.5'i hafif risk grubunda olup 10 yıllık diyabet riskinin %4, %2.2'si orta risk grubunda olup 10 yıllık tip 2 diyabet riskinin %16 ve %2.2'si yüksek risk grubunda olup 10 yıllık tip 2 diyabet riskinin %33 olduğu saptanmıştır (Şekil 1). Üni-versite öğrencilerinin FINDRISC ile tip 2 diyabet riskinin değerlendirildiği bir çalışmada ise düşük, hafif, orta ve yüksek risk grubundaki öğrencilerin oranının sırasıyla %72, %24.7, %2.8 ve %0.5 olduğu, tip 2 diyabet riski düşük olan kadın öğrenci-lerin oranının erkek öğrencilere kıyasla daha dü-şük olduğu belirlenmiştir (Colak, 2015). Bu çalış-mada da öğrencilerin cinsiyete göre tip 2 diyabet risk grupları dağılımları incelendiğinde düşük risk grubunda yer alan kadın öğrencilerin oranı (%65.5) bu grupta yer alan erkek öğrencilerin oranına (%77.0) kıyasla daha düşüktür (p>0.05) (Şe-kil 1).…”

Öz:Bu araştırmada hemşirelik bölümü öğrencilerinin tip 2 diyabet riski ile bel/boy oranı ve tip 2 diyabet riski iliş-kisinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Vücut ağırlığı, boy uzunluğu, bel ve kalça çevresi ölçümleri tekniğine uygun olarak yapılmış ve Finlandiya tip 2 diyabet riski anketi uygulanmıştır. Öğrencilerin %67.1'inin 10 yıllık tip 2 diyabet riskinin %1, %28.5'inin 10 yıllık diyabet riskinin %4, %2.2'sinin 10 yıllık tip 2 diyabet riskinin %16 ve %2.2'sinin 10 yıllık tip 2 diyabet riskinin %33 olduğu saptanmıştır. Tip 2 diyabet riski ile bel/boy oranı ve beden kütle indeksi arasındaki ilişki orta dü-zeyde olup bel/boy oranı, tip 2 diyabet riski ile korelasyon katsayısı en yüksek olan ölçümdür. Gençlerde tip 2 diyabet riskinin girişimsel olmayan yöntemlerle belirlenebilmesi riskin azaltılmasında etkili olabilir.Anahtar Kelimeler: Diabetes mellitus, Obezite, Abdominal, Öğrenciler, Hemşirelik Abstract: THE ASSESMENT OF RELATION BETWEEN WAIST/HEIGHT RATIO AND TYPE 2 DIABETES RISK AMONG NURSING STUDENTSIn this study it's aimed to evaluate type 2 diabetes risk and the relation between type 2 diabetes and waist/height ratio in nursing students. Body weight, height, waist and hip circumferences were performed by following the appropriate techniques and Finnish type 2 diabetes risk score questionnarie was applied. The ratio of students whose ten years risk of type 2 diabetes risk were %1, %4, %16 and %33 assesed as %67.1, %28.5, %2.2 and %2.2, respectively. While type 2 diabetes risk correlated with both waist/height ratio and body mass index at medium level, waist/height ratio had the highest correlation coefficient with type 2 diabetes. The assesment of type 2 diabetes risk of youth with noninasive techniques could be effective for decreasing the risk.
