Abstract

This study was conducted to examine the effects of physical activity levels and fiber consumption on bowel habits of individuals aged 40 years and older living in rural areas. This study was a cross-sectional study conducted on a total of 584 male/female individuals aged 40 years and older living in rural areas. A questionnaire consisting of sociodemographic information, Bristol Stool Scale, International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ) and a three-day food consumption record was used for evaluation. The main tests used in statistical analysis were Chi-square test, Mann Whitney U test and Kruskal Wallis test. Among the individuals who participated in the study, 17.5% had a frequency of defecation three times a week or less. It was determined that especially in individuals aged 70 years and over, pulp consumption was inadequate and the frequency of defecation was three times a week or less. The median daily fiber intake was 20.65 g, and men (21.9 g) consumed more fiber than women (20.1 g (p<0.05). It was determined that 26.9% of the individuals were inactive. When physical activity status and frequency of defecation were examined, it was determined that minimally active individuals had a frequency of defecation once a day (p<0.05). Gender, advanced age, low consumption of fiber and water, and insufficient physical activity level have an effect on the bowel habits of individuals. Since the study included individuals living in a certain rural area, more large-scale studies are needed.

Özet

Bu çalışma kırsal bölgede yaşayan 40 yaş ve üzeri bireylerin fiziksel aktivite düzeyleri ve posa tüketimlerinin bağırsak alışkanlıklarına etkisini incelenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Bu çalışma kırsal bölgede yaşayan 40 yaş ve üzeri kadın/erkek toplam 584 birey üzerinde yapılmış, kesitsel tipte bir araştırmadır. Değerlendirme için sosyodemografik bilgilerden, Bristol Gaita Skalası’ndan, Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi Kısa Formu (IPAQ)’ndan ve üç günlük besin tüketim kaydından oluşan bir anket formu uygulanmıştır. İstatistiksel analizlerde kullanılan başlıca testler; Ki-kare testi, Mann Whitney U testi, Kruskal Wallis testidir. Araştırmaya katılan bireylerin %17,5’i haftada üç kez veya daha seyrek dışkılama sıklığına sahiptir. Özellikle 70 yaş ve üzeri bireylerde, posa tüketiminin yetersiz olduğu ve dışkılama sıklığının haftada üç kez veya daha seyrek olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Günlük posa tüketimi ortancası 20,65 gram olup erkeklerin (21,9 gr) tüketimi kadınlardan (20,1 gr) daha fazladır (p<0,05). Bireylerin %26,9’unun inaktif olduğu belirlenmiştir. Fiziksel aktivite durumu ile dışkılama sıklığı incelendiğinde minimal aktif bireylerin günde bir kez dışkılama sıklığına sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir (p<0,05). Cinsiyet, ileri yaş, posa ve su tüketiminin az olması, fiziksel aktivite düzeyinin yetersiz olması bireylerin bağırsak alışkanlıkları üzerinde etkili olmaktadır. Çalışma belirli bir kırsal bölgede yaşayan bireyleri kapsadığı için daha geniş çaplı çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
