Öğe The early diagnosis of fibromyalgia in irritable bowel syndrome patients(ELSEVIER, RADARWEG 29, 1043 NX AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS, 2020) Üçüncü, Muhammed Zübeyr; Çoruh Akyol, Bestegül; Toprak, DilekIrritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common disorder worldwide, but the diagnosis is often overlooked. This study aimed to evaluate the sociodemographic characteristics of IBS patients and the relationship between IBS and fibromyalgia. 202 patients with gastrointestinal system complaints who were admitted to Sisli Hamidiye Etfal Trainnig and Research Hospital, Family Medicine Clinic were included in the study. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Fibromyalgia was associated with IBS in 26.7% of the participants. There was a positive correlation between the incidence of fibromyalgia and use of medication due to IBS, change in stool frequency, generalized pain, frequent illness, headache, excessive stress cancer anxiety , workforce loss due to IBS symptoms and fibromyalgia (p < 0.05). The presence of generalized pain, among IBS symptoms, caused the most robust increase in the likelihood of fibromyalgia (80%). The symptoms which were increasing the possibility of fibromyalgia were mostly generalized pain, high WHOQOL total score, family history of cancer, and loss of workforce at admission. IBS is a condition that affects the daily life quality of individuals and is often a condition that can be confused or associated with other diseases. Primary care physicians should approach patients holistically, especially in patients with generalized pain, family history of cancer, loss of workforce at admission, and more careful about fibromyalgia in patients with high WHOQOL total score. This awareness will increase the chances of early diagnosis and treatment of patients and will provide less cost but more effective treatment.Öğe Evaluation knowledge, attitude, and behaviour for breast cancer among young women living in two different habitats of Turkey(Asian Pacific Organization for Cancer Prevention, 2018) Üçüncü, Muhammed Zübeyr; Üçüncü, Merve Müge; Toprak, DilekBackground: Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer among women in Turkey and worldwide, and is ranked as the second-leading cause of death in women after lung cancer. Early diagnosis of breast cancer is possible, and breast cancer is included in cancer-screening programs in Turkey. The aim of this study was to evaluate the knowledge, attitude, and behaviour of young women (older than 20 years of age) on breast self-examination and breast cancer screening methods, and to determine the effect of sociodemographic characteristics. Methods: A total of 489 patients were included in the study. The mean age of participants was 36.53 ± 11.22 years. 346 (70.8%) of the participants were married. The study was a cross-sectional, non-randomized study in public health. The participants in this study were women over 20 years old, who presented to Arnavutkoy State Hospital General surgery policlinic and Sisli Hamidiye Etfal Family Medicine policlinic. Results: The rate and duration of breastfeeding were higher among participants living in rural areas than those living in urban areas (p < 0.001) The awareness of breast cancer increased as the level of education increased (p < 0.001). Having a family history of a high incidence of breast cancer significantly increased the rate of breast self examination practice by 1.93 fold (p=0.016). Conclusion: Breast Cancer is a disease that can be treated 100 % with early diagnosis. Primary care physicians especially works in lower socioeconomic conditions have to tell the importance of early diagnosis of breast cancer, and properly explain breast self examination and other screening tools. © 2018 Asian Pacific Organization for Cancer Prevention.Öğe The Knowledge, Attitude and Behavior of Mothers With Children Aged 0-6 Years on Home Accidents and Preventive Measures(İstanbul Üniversitesi Yayınevi, 2019) Üçüncü, Merve Müge; Üçüncü, Muhammed Zübeyr; Toprak, DilekObjective: Accidents have become an increasingly important cause of child deaths in both developed and developing countries. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the knowledge and attitudes of mothers of children in the the 0-6 age group on ways of protecting them accidents at home. Material and Methods: A prospective, single-center, descriptive-analytical study was conducted between February 2016 and March 2016. The study included 217 people at Şişli Hamidiye Etfal Training and Research Hospital Family Medicine Polyclinic. Results: The average age of mothers in our study was 33.32±5.64 years. Mothers with higher levels of education and with high incomes were found to have more knowledge about home accidents (p<0.001, p<0.001). As the number of children and people living in the house increased, the mother’s knowledge of home accidents and security precautions decreased. Mothers aged ?35 years with a high educational level who had one child scored more points on the Scale of Recognizing Security Measures (p=0.005, p=0.009, p=0.017). Conclusion: Social awareness and business cooperation should be raised in the prevention of home accidents. Parents’ knowledge of precautions against accidents - especially mothers who spend most of their time with children - and the education they give their children is key for protection against accidents.
