Item Relationship Among Coping Strategies, Quality of Life, and Anxiety and Depressive Disorders in Hemodialysis Patients(2019) Ulusoy, Selen Isik; Kal, Oznur; 0000-0003-2550-8989; 31233289Patients with hemodialysis face many physical and emotional stressors; yet little is known regarding coping strategies and their effects on patients' quality of life (QOL) and anxiety and depressive disorders. A total of 117 patients were enrolled in this cross-sectional study between October 2016 and April 2017. This study assessed QOL (Medical outcome short form 36-MOS 36), coping (Assessment Scale for Coping Attitudes-COPE) and psychiatric comorbidities in hemodialysis patients. Beck Depression Scale and Beck Anxiety Scale were also applied. Differences between groups were evaluated using Student's t-tests and anova. Correlations among parameters were performed. Patients with any depressive disorder (22.2%, n = 26) and patients with any anxiety disorder (19.6%, n = 23) reported more impaired QOL. The most frequently used coping strategy in all patients was religious coping. Use of instrumental social support, humor, and positive reinterpretation scores were lower in patients with any depressive disorder (P = 0.009, P = 0.034, P = 0.047).The total score of emotion-focused coping strategies was lower with patients with any depressive disorder (P = 0.021) and emotion-focused coping strategies were positively correlated with QOL scores. Younger age and longer duration of hemodialysis have significant negative correlation with emotion-focused coping strategies' total score (P = 0.01, P = 0.02). Patients with hemodialysis use variety of coping strategies. The use of emotion-focused coping was associated with better QOL and reducing the risk of depressive disorder. Interventions to facilitate the use of adaptive coping strategies may improve patients' QOL and mood.Item The relationship between quality of life and anthropometric measurements in premenopausal and postmenopausal among turkish women(2019) Kose, Beril; Yesil, Esen; Turker, Perim Fatma; Ok, Mehtap Akcil; Bayram, Sinem; Beyaz, Esra Koseler; Ozdemir, Merve; Muftuoglu, Selen; Tayfur, Muhittin; Aksoydan, Emine; Ercan, Aydan; Saka, Mendane; Kiziltan, Gul; 0000-0003-1569-7747; AAG-6763-2020The aim of this work was to investigate whether there is a relationship between anthropometric measurements and quality of life scores during pre and postmenopouse period. A descriptive study was carried out on 1276 women (40-64 years). Demographic features, socioeconomic attributes and anthropometric measurements were considered using a validated instrument the Turkish version of the EUROHIS (WHOQOL-8.Tr) was performed. Significant body mass index (BMI), height, waist circumference, hip circumference, waist/ height ratio differences were determined by comparing pre and postmenopausal women (p <0.05). Significantly lower quality of life scores were observed in premenopausal women (p<0.05). BMI was determined as significant predictor for quality of life for each group. The number of pregnancy, number of live birth, number of stillbirth and waist/height ratio did not show significant association with quality of life. The age of first pregnancy was stated as significant predictor for quality of life just for premenopausal women. In our study, quality of life increased as the BMI decreased in pre and postmenopausal women. Significantly lower WHO-8 EUROHIS scores were observed in premenopausal women. The age of first pregnancy affected the life quality in positive way in just premenopausal women. As the age of first pregnancy increased, quality of life score increased in premenopausal women.Item Effects of Thoracic Mobilization Techniques on Pulmonary Functions, Dyspnea and Health Status in Patients with Asthma(2019) Duruturk, Neslihan; Ozdemir, Furkan; Gunaydin, Buse; Alaca, Sevin; Bulbul, Saliha Beste
