    Relationship Between Visceral Adiposity Index and Glycemic and Metabolic Control in Children and Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
    (Springer London Ltd, 2024) Özkaya, Şebnem Özgen; Ozkaya, Sebnem Ozgen; Adal, Servet Erdal; Beslenme ve Diyetetik Bölümü
    BackgroundVisceral Adiposity Index (VAI) is a gender-specific mathematical model based on BMI, waist circumference (WC) and lipid parameters. No study has yet examined the relationship between this index and the glycemic and metabolic parameters in children and adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (DM). The current study aims at examining the relationship between glycemic and metabolic control and VAI in children and adolescents with Type 1 DM.MethodsA total of 150 children and adolescents aged 6-18 years with Type 1 DM were included in this study. Anthropometric, glycemic and metabolic parameters were examined. VAI was calculated using gender-specific formulas. Statistical analysis was done by SPSS version 23.ResultsThe average age of the participants was 12.2 +/- 3.1 years (females 53.0%). The females had higher rates of VAI, microalbuminuria and hypertension than males. Participants of both gender with higher VAI quartiles had higher anthropometric measurements, insulin usage, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), triglycerides and urine microalbumin and had poor glycemic control. Sex adjusted correlation analysis showed that VAI is negatively correlated with estimated glucose disposal rate (eGDR), and positively correlated with insulin dose, LDL-C, triglycerides, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and microalbuminuria.ConclusionThe present paper is the first study examining the relationship between Type 1 DM and VAI. Higher VAI values in children and adolescents with type 1 DM may adversely affect glycemic and metabolic control. VAI can be a useful and new method in evaluating glycemic and metabolic control in children and adolescents with Type 1 DM.

    Which Factors Affect Internalized Stigmatization in Adolescents With Mental Disorders?
    (Wiley, 2022) Dikeç, Gül; Bilac, Oznur; Kardelen, Cansin; Sapmaz, Sermin Yalin; Kandemir, Hasan; Hemşirelik Bölümü
    Purpose: The aim of this descriptive study was to determine the factors affecting internalized stigmatization of adolescents with mental disorders. Method: The study data were collected in a university hospital between August 1, 2020 and July 30, 2021 (n = 123), using a Personal information form and the Internalized Stigmatization of Mental Illness-Adolescent Form (ISMI-AF). Results: Gender and the number of hospitalizations were determined to be independent variables with explanatory power in the ISMI-AF, and in the model created with these variables, it was determined that these variables explained 18% of the change in the total points of the ISMI-AF. Conclusions: It could be recommended that psychosocial programs are developed with the aim of decreasing internalized stigmatization and increasing the psychological resilience of adolescents.
