Diabetes mellitus is a health complication that millions of people suffer from all over the world. Type II (non-insulin dependent) diabetes requires many changes in the daily lives of patients, including monitoring blood glucose, following a healthy diet, exercising, and taking medications. Although it is vital for their health, patients generally find it difficult to adhere to their medical regimen. In order to better understand the adherence behaviors of type II diabetes patients, the theory of planned behavior (TPB) was used as the theoretical framework for this study. Ninety type II diabetes patients, who were outpatients of four different hospitals in Ankara, Turkey were administered the TPB tool. The mediation analyses provided support for the mediating role of intention for the attitudes-behavior and subjective norms-behavior relations. The findings did not reveal a mediating role of intention for the PBC-behavior relation but a significant direct effect of PBC on adherence behavior was found. Overall, it seems important that PBC and the multi-faceted nature of adherence behaviors are considered when designing interventions for type II diabetes patients.

A Predictive model for type 2 diabetes mellitus based on genomic and phenotypic risk factors Gül, Hüsamettin; Aydın Son, Yeşim; Department of Health Informatics (2014) Despite the rise in type 2 diabetes (T2D) prevalence worldwide, we do not have a method for early T2D risk prediction. Phenotype variables only contribute to risk prediction near the onset or after the development of T2D. The predictive ability of genetic models has been found to be little or negligible so far. T2D has mostly genetic background but the genetic loci identified so far account for only a small fraction (10%) of the overall heritable risk. In this study, we used data from The Nurses' Health Stu...
A Novel method for the quantification of coronary artery stenosis: a 2D QCA system Demiray, Muharrem; Serinağaoğlu Doğrusöz, Yeşim; Ulus, Ahmet Tulga; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2015) According to reports published by WHO, vascular diseases are leading cause of death and it is very widespread in both developing and developed countries. Therefore, diagnosis of coronary artery diseases plays an important role on health of the whole world. Although there exist many different imaging modalities used for coronary artery imaging like CTA, DSA and MRI, the most commonly used imaging modality in clinics is XRA. Using XRA images, interventional cardiologists give a decision about the treatment pl...
A comprehensive model for obsessive-compulsive disorder symptoms: a cross-cultural investigation of cognitive and other vulnerability factors Yorulmaz, Orçun; Gençöz, Tülin; Department of Psychology (2007) The current coginitive models of the Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) symptoms focuses on the different cognitive factors. Like other nonspecific and noncognitive variables, these factors may also function as vulnerability factors. However, they have been mostly studied separately and majority of the findings in the literature come from the Western samples. Accordingly, the studies examining these factors together and the impact of the culture in these studies are sparse in number. The present study sugg...
Fourier transform infrared study of the effect of diabetes on rat liver and heart tissues in the C-H region Severcan, Feride; Toyran, N; Kaptan, N; Turan, B (2000-10-02) Diabetes mellitus is characterized by hyperglycemia, a relative lack of insulin. The metabolic disturbances in diabetic patients are often associated with cardiac and liver dysfunctions. Generally, experimental diabetic models in animals have been used to study diabetes-related changes in organ function, but the complexity of intact tissues can cause contradictory results. For this reason, different techniques have been used to understand the mechanisms of these dysfunctions in diabetic organs. The purpose ...
Prediction of insulin resistance by statistical tool MARS Örsçelik, Simge Gökçe; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm; Osterhoff, Martin; Department of Bioinformatics (2014) Recently, following the rise in obesity prevalence, the incidence of type 2 diabetes rose remarkably. Diabetes is a serious disorder, accompanied by increased risk of developing heart disease, kidney failure, and new cases of blindness. Dietary habits are strongly related to type 2 diabetes. We sought to observe how dietary protein and glycemic index patterns, weight change and/or other predictors we selected relate to insulin resistance change. First, we applied multiple linear regression, and then statist...
