Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) survivors were screened for risk factors of cardiovascular disease. Forty-four ALL survivors in first remission were enrolled. Twenty-six also received 12-18 Gy cranial radiotherapy (RT). Patients' body mass indexes (BMIs) at dignosis and during the study were compared. Metabolic syndrome (MS) evaluation was performed in patients, parents, and siblings older than 6 years. Homeostasis Model Assessment (HOMA) index of the survivors was also calculated. In survivors with impaired fasting glucose levels, oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was performed. Thyroid functions and IGF-1 and/or IGFBP-3 levels of the survivors who received cranial RT were evaluated. Median age of the survivors was 11.5 years (6-23). At diagnosis, mean BMI percentile was 46.7 (3-95) and mean z-score was -0.09 ± 1.14; during the study, these values rose to 71.1 ± 25.6 (3-100) and 0.8 ± 0.94, respectively (P < .001). One patient (2.2%) and nine survivors (20%) were obese at diagnosis and during the study, respectively (P = .005). Survivors had significantly higher BMI percentile and BMI z-score compared to their siblings (P = .006 and P = .011, respectively). The study group was small and we could not show a correlation of the patients' obesity with RT, thyroid functions, IGF-1, and IGFBP-3 levels. In three survivors (6.8%), there was MS. Maternal and paternal MS was not found as a risk factor for MS of the survivors (P = .1, P = .5, respectively). The HOMA index revealed insulin resistance (IR) in 12 (27.2%) of the survivors, whereas OGTT revealed abnormal glucose regulation and/or IR in four. As a conclusion, ALL survivors have high risk for obesity and MS.

“…Articles were excluded for several reasons. Despite efforts to include articles in non‐English languages, we still had to exclude nine articles that were in languages other than English, French, Portuguese and Spanish: one Turkish , two Czech , two Polish , two German and one Icelandic . Other articles were excluded because they noted that education was an effect measure modifier (e.g.…”

Educational attainment and obesity: a systematic review

Background Although previous systematic reviews considered the relationship between socioeconomic status and obesity, almost 200 peer-reviewed articles have been published since the last review on that topic, and this paper focuses specifically on education, which has different implications. Methods The authors systematically review the peer-reviewed literature from around the world considering the association between educational attainment and obesity. Databases from public health and medicine, education, psychology, economics, and other social sciences were searched, and articles published in English, French, Portuguese, and Spanish were included. Results This paper includes 289 articles that report on 410 populations in 91 countries. The relationship between educational attainment and obesity was modified by both gender and the country's economic development level: an inverse association was more common in studies of higher-income countries and a positive association was more common in lower-income countries, with stronger social patterning among women. Relatively few studies reported on lower-income countries, controlled for a comprehensive set of potential confounding variables, and/or attempted to assess causality through the use of quasi-experimental designs. Conclusions Future research should address these gaps to understand if the relationship between educational attainment and obesity may be causal, thus supporting education policy as a tool for obesity prevention.

Bu çalışmanın amacı ofis çalışanlarında metabolik sendrom sıklığını belirlemektir. Yöntemler: Tanımlayıcı-kesitsel tipteki araştırmanın evrenini Ocak 2017-Nisan 2017 arasında İstanbul'da özel bir banka ve şirketin ofis çalışanları oluşturdu (n=1200). Bu evrenden anlamlılık düzeyi 0.05, %95 güven aralığında, örneklem sayısı hesaplandı (n=344), ancak örneklemin %40.6'sına ulaşıldı (n=140). Veriler, Kişisel Bilgi Formu ve NCEP-ATP III tanı kriterleri ile toplandı. NCEP-ATP III tanı kriterleri için çalışanların kan basıncı, boy, kilo, bel çevresi ölçümleri yapıldı, trigliserid düzeyi, HDL ve açlık kan şekeri değerini belirlemek için işyeri sağlık ofisinde kanları alındı. Verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler (sayı, yüzde, ortalama), ki kare testi kullanıldı. Bulgular: Çalışanların %50'si kadın, %62.1'i evli, %52.9'unun eğitim düzeyi lisans ve üzeri, %22.9'unun kronik hastalığı bulunmakta, %36.4'ü sigara kullanmakta, %42.9'u normal kilolu, %36.4'ü ise fazla kiloludur. Abdominal obezite oranı kadınlarda %45.7, erkeklerde %28.6'di. Tüm çalışanlarda MetS sıklığı %18.6 olarak bulundu. Kadınlarda bu oran %17.1, erkeklerde ise %20'di. MetS sıklığı evlilerde, kronik hastalığı olanlarda, 41-60 yaş arası olanlarda, masa başında günlük çalışma süresi sekiz saat üzeri olanlarda istatiksel olarak anlamlı daha yüksekti (p<.05). Sonuç: Sonuç olarak ofis çalışanlarında metabolik sendromun önlenmesi ve erken tanısı için işyerlerinde sağlığı geliştirme programları oluşturulmalıdır.
