In parenteral nutrition (PN), essential fatty acids are provided by soy oil-based fat emulsions, which may exert adverse effects on the immune system and lipid peroxidation. Olive oil -based fat emulsions have been said to prevent these undesired effects. This study compares effects of olive oil - and soy oil -based fat emulsions in 22 patients who underwent abdominal surgery for cancer. The first group (n = 10) received soy oil -based fat emulsion; the second group (n = 10) received olive oil -based fat emulsion. Body temperature, body mass index, (BMI) and biochemical variables were measured on days 0 and 7. There were no differences between the groups with regard to BMI or temperature. On day 7, the first group (compared with day 0) had significant increases in plasma alkaline phosphatase (81.70 ± 16.03 vs 117.60 ± 11.1), γ-glutamyl transferase (39.90 ± 15.40 vs 137.70 ± 24.09), and mean body temperature (36.72°C ± 0.14°C vs 37.20°C ± 0.17°C) (P < .01). Second group had increases in alkaline phosphatase (85.80 ± 13.46 vs 147.20 ± 34.17), γ-glutamyl transferase (48.40 ± 12.86 vs 129.40 ± 42.03), total protein (5.14 ± 0.19 vs 6.06 ± 0.49), and albumin (2.62 ± 0.14 vs 3.00 ± 0.18) (P < .05). Changes in thiobutyric acid levels were not statistically significant in either group. In postoperative cancer patients, olive oil-based fat emulsion had similar effects on BMI, body temperature, biochemical values, and thiobutyric acid levels as soy oil-based fat emulsions.
Bu çalıĢmanın amacı öğretmenlerin okullarındaki yaĢam kalitesine iliĢkin algıları ile mesleki motivasyon düzeylerinin incelenmesidir. ÇalıĢmada ele alınan bu iki değiĢken öğretmenlerin cinsiyeti, kıdemi ve mezun olduğu okul türü bakımından incelenmiĢtir. Daha sonra öğretmenlerin okul yaĢam kalitesi algıları ile mesleki motivasyon düzeyleri arasındaki istatistiksel iliĢkiler irdelenmiĢtir. Katılımcılar Adana il merkezinde yer alan beĢ ilkokulda görev yapan 134 öğretmendir. Okul YaĢam Kalitesi Ölçeği (OYKÖ) ile Ġlkokul Öğretmeni Motivasyon Ölçeği (ÖMÖ) kullanılarak toplanan verilerin analizinde betimsel istatistikler incelenmiĢ, ttesti, tek yönlü varyans, korelasyon ve regresyon analizleri yapılmıĢtır. Analizler sonucunda, öğretmenlerin okul yaĢam kalitesi algılarının ortanın biraz üzerinde, motivasyon düzeylerinin ise yüksek olduğu belirlenmiĢtir. ÇalıĢmada cinsiyete göre anlamlı fark bulunmamıĢken, öğretmenlerin okul yaĢam kalitesi algılarında kıdeme göre anlamlı farklar bulunmuĢtur. Ayrıca öğretmenlerin okul yaĢam kalitesi algıları ile mesleki motivasyon düzeyleri arasında pozitif yönde anlamlı iliĢkiler bulunduğu ve OYKÖ puanlarının öğretmen motivasyonunu anlamlı bir Ģekilde yordadığı belirlenmiĢtir.
Older participants prefer healthy, traditional choices such as ayran and black tea, but younger participants prefer high energy-containing drinks with low nutritional value. Thus, this unique information contributes to the data on beverage consumption patterns in different countries and might be useful for increasing consumption of nutritious fluids and decreasing sugar usage in Turkey.
During the follow-up, significant nutritional changes were determined. To prevent malnutrition, periodical screening of nutritional status should be a priority and a standard policy for elderly people, especially for those institutionalised.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
