“…Within this study, the validity of this questionnaire compared with dietary records or recalls has not been examined. However, this questionnaire has already been used and supported by various national nutrition surveys and reports like TNHS-2019 ( 19 ) and Determination of Nutritional Status Report ( 24 ) . The strength of the study is that this work was carried out when the interns continued their final-year medical education online and before their return of practical training in the hospital.…”

Objective: The massive increase in COVID-19 cases led to the implementation of nationwide lockdown in Turkey. While enforced lockdown is an effective strategy to abate the transmission of the virus, it causes significant lifestyle changes in every part of the community. This study aims to assess the changes in eating habits, sleeping behaviour, and physical activity status of final year medical students (interns) whose education was suspended during the pandemic. Design: In this cross-sectional epidemiological study, an online questionnaire was created. Interns were asked questions regarding sociodemographic status, eating habits, sleeping behaviour and physical activity status before and during COVID-19 pandemic. Changes in dietary habits and sleep quality were evaluated under the guidance of Turkish Nutrition Guide, Determination of Nutritional Status Report, Turkey National Nutrition and Health Survey and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Setting: Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine-Ankara/Turkey. Participants: Among 536 students, a total of 340 students (63.4%) answered the questionnaire. Results: After the beginning of lockdown, an increase in body mass index (BMI) was observed in both female(p=0.002) and male students(p=0.013). Students having healthy dietary habits increased by 18.8% and unhealthy dietary habits decreased by 3.2% during lockdown(p<0.001). Overall, 63.2% of students reported a decrease in physical activity, and 33.6% reported a reduction in sleep quality whereas 38.6% reported an improvement in sleep quality. There was no significant difference in sleep quality between genders(p=0.075). Conclusions: This study indicated that medical school suspension and enforced lockdown led to significant changes in interns’ eating behaviour, physical activity, and sleeping habits.

“…While the athletes were standing and upright, their upper-middle arm circumference measurements were performed by flexing the arm 90° from the elbow and designating a point between the acromion process on the shoulder and the olecranon process on the elbow. The circumference measurements were recorded in cm starting at the designated point [ 37 38 ].…”

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Mediterranean diet is an environmentally friendly and healthy diet model. The diet offers many vegetables, fruits, nuts, and olive oil to consumers. In addition, it provides moderate amounts of fish and chicken, smaller quantities of dairy products, red meat, and processed meat. The Mediterranean diet has a high anti-inflammatory and antioxidant content, and it causes many physiological changes that can provide a physical performance advantage. This study examined the effects of a 15-day menu, which was planned using foods with a low acid load within the Mediterranean diet rules, on the exercise performance, lactate elimination, anthropometric measurements, and body composition. SUBJECTS/METHODS Fifteen professional male athletes between the ages of 13 and 18, who were engaged in ski running, were included in the experimental study. Dietary intervention was applied for 15 days. The athlete performances were evaluated by applying the vertical jump test, hand grip strength, 20 meters shuttle run test, and Borg fatigue scale. After the shuttle run test (every 3 min for 30 min), blood was drawn from the finger, and the lactate elimination time was calculated. Performance and lactate measurements, body analysis, and anthropometric measurements were taken before and after dietary intervention. RESULTS The vertical jump height and hand grip strength increased after the intervention ( P < 0.05). The test duration, total distance, the number of shuttles, and maximum oxygen consumption parameters of the shuttle run test increased ( P < 0.05). After the intervention, the athletes’ perceived fatigue scores decreased in several stages of the shuttle run test ( P < 0.05). The lactate elimination time and athlete’s body composition were similar in repeated measurements ( P > 0.05). In the last measurements, the upper middle arm circumference decreased while the height of the athletes increased ( P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS These results show that the Mediterranean diet is a safe and feasible dietary approach for aerobic performance and strength increase.

“…The comparison between the leaf nutrient concentration in summer and winter also has high practical importance, since many researchers consider the resting period of winter a reliable period for diagnosing the nutritional status of olive trees (Perica 2001;Marcelo et al 2002;Soyergin and Katkat 2002;Pekcan et al 2008).…”
