    Knowledge and View of Mothers Whose Babies in Newborn Intensive Care Units About Breast Milk Banking in Turkey
    (2020) Gurel, Reyyan; Erenel, Ayten Senturk
    BACKGROUND/AIMS This study aimed to assess the knowledge, awareness, and attitudes of mothers whose babies were in the newborn intensive care units about breast milk banking. MATERIALS and METHODS The participants of this descriptive research were 102 mothers who provided their oral and written consent for study participation and whose newborns were in the intensive care units during June to August 2016 (n=102). A p value <0.05 was considered to indicate statistical significance. RESULTS We found a statistically significant relationship of the "Request to Benefit from Breast Milk Banking" with the educational background, working status, and the place where the mothers had spent most of their lives. In addition, there was a statistically significant relationship of the "Request to Donate Breast Milk to the Breast Milk Banks" with the place where the mothers had spent most of their lives, breastfeeding experience, and the institution from which they had received care before the delivery (p<0.05). CONCLUSION Although a considerable proportion of the mothers have positive thoughts about breast milk banking, they were hesitant about feeding their babies donor milk when needed.

    A content analysis of food advertising on Turkish television
    (2016) Ok, Mehtap Akcil; Ercan, Aydan; Kaya, Fatih Suleyman; 26135584; AAZ-8170-2020
    The aim of this study was to conduct a comprehensive content analysis of Television (TV) food advertising and compare various food advertisements on free-to-air Turkish national TV channels by broadcast time (duration) and frequency over the period of aweek (19-25 April 2012). TV food advertisements were the unit of content analysis in this study. Each advertisement identified as promoting a food product was analysed for content; non-food advertisements were not analysed, although they were counted as a proportion of the advertisements aired. We recorded all programmes for 4 h each per day (7 p.m.-11 p.m.), totalling 84 h. Five types of food-related advertisements were identified (basic foods, junk foods, meat products, beverages and fast food), and six types of non-food advertisements. The Student t-test and ANOVA were used to compare the mean broadcast time of all prime time advertising for the two groups. The mean broadcast times for prime time, non-food advertisements showed a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05). This difference is related to the prime time period 7 p.m.-8p.m. being considered dinner time for most Turkish families. Additionally, the number and broadcast times of beverage advertisements increased during this time period, while the broadcast time per beverage advertisement decreased (ratio = 20.8 s per ads). As a result, TV food advertising increased not only during dinner time but also in overall broadcast time (per advertisement). These findings may be useful for explaining how advertising can negatively influence food choices, thereby increasing public awareness of the need for health messages targeting obesity.
