    Association of physical activity and obesity status for individuals between the ages of 18-30 via bioelectrical impedance analysis device and metabolic holter measurements
    (Mattioli 1885, 2017) Aksoy, Aziz; Selen, Halime; Ozdemir, Fethi Ahmet; Arikan, Funda Bulut
    Obesity, according to its simplest definition, is excessive accumulation of fat in the body. Obesity is a health problem that is observed commonly in almost all societies and it is starting to become a global epidemic. In this study, physical activity and obesity statuses for individuals between the ages of 18-30 with different body types were tried to be associated via bioelectrical impedance analysis device and metabolic holter measurements. It was determined according to the results of the study that body fat ratio increases and number of steps decreases with increasing age, that there are statistically significant differences between gender and AEC, TEC, muscle weight and total body water and that this ratio is greater in men in comparison with women. Statistically significant differences (P<0.05) were determined between the muscle weight and total body water, BMI,waist/hip ratio, TEC, AEC; between total body water and BMI, waist/hip ratio, TEC and AEC; between the body mass index of individuals and their body fat ratio, waist/hip ratio, TEC and AEC; between body fat ratio and waist/hip ratio and TEC; betwen waist/hip ratio and TEC and BMR; total energy consumption and physical activity duration, AEC, number of steps, PAL, time spent with moderate intensity movement and time spent with very high intensity movement; physical activity levels and AEC, number of steps, PAL, time spent with moderate intensity movement and time spent with high intensity movement; between active energy consumption and number of steps, PAL, time spent with moderate intensity movement, time spent with high intensity movement and time spent with very high intensity movement; number of steps and PAL, time spent with moderate intensity movement, time spent with high intensity movement and time spent with very high intensity movement; PAL values of individuals who participated in the study and the time spent with moderate intensity movement, time spent with high intensity movement and time spent with very high intensity movement.

    Vitamin A And E Levels In Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease
    (Parlar Scientific Publications (P S P), 2018) Aksoy, Aziz; Gozel, Nevzat; Bulut-Arikan, Funda; Kucuksu, Mehmet; Ozdemir, Fethi Ahmet
    Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a disease that manifests itself with abnormalities in kidney structure or function. Inflammation and oxidative stress increase in kidney disease in parallel with the advancement of the disease. In addition, vitamin synthesis metabolism is also disrupted as a result of the decrease in kidney functions. Vitamins A and E are strong anti-inflammatories and antioxidants which protect the body against oxidative stress. Hence, the activation of these vitamins in CKD patients is of significant importance. The study was carried out with the participation of 139 people comprised of 79 volunteer patients diagnosed with Stage-5 CKD and 60 healthy volunteers (control). Demographic measurements of the participants were carried out and their biochemical parameters (glucose, urea, creatinin, AST, ALT, and LDL etc.) were determined via ELISA and spectrophotometric analyses. Serum A and E vitamin levels were determined via HPLC analysis. No statistically significant difference was determined (p=0,56) in this study between the groups even though the vitamin A level of the patient group was lower, while vitamin E levels were determined to be lower at a statistically significant level in the patient group in comparison with the control group (about half) (p=0,000).Statistically significant differences were determined between the patient and control groups when; BMI, glucose, urea, creatinin, AST, ALT, LDL, triglyceride, HDL, albumin, hemoglobin, platelet, RBC, HCT, MCH and Diastolic blood pressure averages were compared (p > 0,005). A positive and statistically significant correlation was determined in the patient group between Vitamin A and E and urea (r=0,325 p=0,003; r=0,278, p=0.013). The decrease in vitamins A and E levels in CKD may be increasing oxidative stress and inflammation in these patients. It can be concluded as a result of this study that a low dose of vitamin A and a strong dose of vitamin E work as strong antioxidants in chronic kidney disease as strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory molecule.
