Filter by:The primary purpose of this project is to observe the effects of Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy-based weight-loss mobile application (Bi' Kilo) in 4 essential areas (Anthropometric, Biochemical, Psychometric, Cognitive) in overweight and obese individuals and to test whether these effects will persist after ten weeks. In this context, the original value of the proposed study is that a mobile application will be produced that is suitable for the culture and whose effectiveness has been scientifically proven. In our current project proposal, the measurements of the participants will be evaluated holistically together with both tests and inventories, as well as physical measurements and biochemical data. In this study, the usability of the mobile application to be developed will also be evaluated and reported. The study group of the research will consist of overweight and obese individuals. The first stage will be a pilot study to identify the shortcomings of the Bi'Kilo mobile application. After eliminating the deficiencies of the Bi' Kilo mobile application, a working group will be formed in the second phase of the research. At this stage, the sample will be divided into two different groups within the scope of the study and a study group and a control group will be formed. The study consists of three phases as preparation, implementation, and follow-up. Measurements of the participants will be made at the beginning (Anthropometric, Biochemical, Psychometric, Cognitive), at the end of the six-week implementation phase (Anthropometric), and at the end of the four-week follow-up phase (Anthropometric, Biochemical, Psychometric, Cognitive).
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of nutrition education on nutritional literacy, nutritional status, eating habits and eating behavior in high school students. The research will be conducted in six high schools, three of which are intervention schools and three of which are control schools It is planned that a total of 1000 students will be included in the study from the intervention school and 1000 students from the control school. At the beginning of the study (June 2022), an introductory form (sociodemographic characteristics, body image (Stunkart scale), dietary habits, knowledge about weight status) was applied to all students. Adolescent Nutrition Literacy Scale (ANLS), Instrument of Nutrition Literacy, Mediterranean Diet Quality Index (KID-MED), Eating Attitudes Test 26 (EAT-26), International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ) were applied, anthropometric measurements and three-day food consumption records were taken. During the study, nutrition initiatives consisting of 8 modules will be made to the intervention schools. Control schools will not be interfered with during this period.At the end of the study, the procedures applied at the beginning will be repeated.
The overall goal is to determine how a sleep extension intervention (increasing time in bed) in individuals who maintain less than 6.5 hours sleep per night affects their plasma ceramides and insulin sensitivity. Participants will undergo a randomized controlled trial, with sleep extension (intervention) and healthy lifestyle (control) groups. The sleep extension is designed to increase participant's time in bed by 2 hours per night. Alternatively, the control group will receive basic health information (e.g., physical activity, goal setting, and nutrition when eating out).
The overall goal is to examine the efficacy of a circadian intervention in people with overweight and obesity and habitual short sleep duration (HSSD). Participants will undergo a randomized controlled trial, with circadian intervention and control (healthy lifestyle) groups. The circadian intervention is designed to reduce nighttime light exposure and after-dinner snack food intake. Alternatively, the control group will receive basic health information (e.g., physical activity, goal setting, and nutrition when eating out).
Military personnel and athletes have a very high energy expenditure which is increased during certain key periods (intense training, competition and mission). Compensating for this expenditure through food can be complicated by physiological ingestive limits and logistical and organizational constraints (number of meals, availability of food), which leads these populations to regularly experience energy deficit situations (intake below requirements), which could alter physical and cognitive performance and major physiological functions. Among the many constraints to which military personnel and athletes are exposed to (stress, sleep deprivation, travel, etc.) that can increase the risk of energy deficits, the impact of thermal environmental constraints is not well known. The seasonal impact and travel to countries with very different thermal environments can lead these populations to experience cold and hot conditions for long periods. Understanding how heat and cold exposure modifies appetite and energy intake therefore appears to be of great importance. The hypothesis of this study is that a 24 h heat exposure would produce a rapid and long-lasting anorexigenic action impacting energy intake, while a cold exposure would produce the opposite effect (orexigenic action).
This research; The Turkish validity and reliability study of the "Reward-Based Eating Impulse Scale-13" developed by Ashley E. Mason was conducted to provide a new measurement tool for our country. At the same time, the study will provide a database for intervention studies to eliminate the effects of reward-based eating urge. Identifying reward-based eating in the middle and lower ranges of the eating disorder spectrum may contribute to halting the growing obesity epidemic. The Reward-Based Eating Impulse Scale will help researchers and clinicians to identify individuals who lack control over eating, cannot feel full, and are constantly preoccupied with eating.
Most individuals with obesity become so before age 35 and adolescent's unhealthy dietary patterns, specifically high intake of ultra-processed foods and poor overall diet quality, may contribute to energy overconsumption and weight gain. The overall objective of this research is to establish proof-of-concept for altered reward processing measured by brain response to ultra-processed foods, an increase in ad libitum energy intake, and adverse effects on executive function in response to an ultra-processed diet (81% total energy) compared to a diet emphasizing minimally processed foods in individuals aged 18-25 years.
This cross- sectional, single-center study was conducted with the participation of 912 students studying at [removed for blind peer review] Faculty of Health Sciences, Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Educational Sciences, Faculty of Social Sciences, Faculty of Law and Medicine. The sample size was calculated to be a minimum of 379 with 95% confidence over the total number of students, 5301. The study was carried out between October 2020 and December 2020. The compliance of the study with the ethical rules was evaluated by the Istanbul Medeniyet University Social and Human Sciences Research and Publication Ethics Committee at its meeting dated 27.10.2020 and approved with the decision numbered 2020/39. At the beginning of the study, verbal and written consent was obtained from the individuals and a questionnaire containing 29 questions was distributed by the researchers. The questionnaire form consists of three parts. The first part includes 10 questions to determine the demographic characteristics of the participants, the second part includes 17 questions to determine their eating habits, and the third part includes 2 questions to evaluate the status of following the news about nutrition and heart health and whether they find the public service ads on this subject sufficient.
This is an open-label observational single-group clinical trial to study the efficacy of a commercial superfood blend and its effect on markers of well-being and improvement of long-term healthy eating habits.
During the COVID-19 epidemic, the time spent by adults on the stomach has increased. Therefore, the likelihood of adverse changes in lifestyles has increased. In this study, the changes in nutritional habits, physical activities and body weights of adult individuals during the epidemic will be evaluated. A questionnaire including questions about nutritional habits, physical activity status and changes in body weights will be administered to individuals. The results will be evaluated with the appropriate statistical method. The survey will be administered once. The estimated time to reach the total number is 3 months.
