Article The effect of body mass index on complications in cardiac implantable electronic device surgery(WILEY, 2023) Güzel, Tuncay; Demir, Muhammed; Aktan, Adem; Kılıç, Raif; Arslan, Bayram; Günlü, Serhat; Altıntaş, Bernas; Karahan, Mehmet Zülkif; Özbek, Mehmet; Aslan, Burhan; Arpa, Abdulkadir; Coşkun, Mehmet Sait; Altunbaş, Mahsum; Tüzün, Rohat; Akgümüş, Alkame; Karadeniz, Muhammed; Aydın, Saadet; Güzel, Hamdullah; Aslan, Selen Filiz; Söner, Serdar; Taş, Ahmet; Ertaş, FarukBackground: Cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) procedures are prone to complications. In our study, we investigated the effect of body mass index (BMI) on CIED-related complications. Methods: 1676 patients who had undergone CIED surgery (de novo implantation, system upgrade, generator change, pocket revision or lead replacement) at two heart centers in Turkey and met the study criteria were included in our study. For analysis of primary and secondary endpoints, patients were classified as non-obese (BMI < 25 kg/m2), overweight (25 ≤ BMI < 30 kg/m2), and obese (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2). The primary endpoint was accepted as cumulative events, including the composite ofclinically significant hematoma (CSH), pericardial effusion or tamponade, pneumoth- orax, and infection related to the device system. Secondary outcomes included each component of cumulative events. Results: The rate of cumulative events, defined as primary outcome, was higher in the obese patient group, and we found a significant difference between the groups (3.0%, 4.3%, 8.9%, p = .001). CSH and pneumothorax rates were significantly higher in the obese patient group (0.3%, 0.9%, 1.9%, p = .04; 1.0%, 1.4%, 3.3%, p = .04, respectively). According to our multivariate model analysis; gender (OR:1.882, 95%CI:1.156–3.064, p = .01), hypertension (OR:4.768, 95%CI:2.470–9.204, p < .001), BMI (OR:1.069, 95%CI:1.012–1.129, p = .01) were independent predictors of cumulative events rates. Conclusions: Periprocedural complications associated with CIED (especially hematoma and pneumothorax) are more common in the group with high BMI.Letter Metabolic Syndrome in School Children(TURKISH PEDIATRIC ENDOCRINOLOGY & DIABETES SOCIETY, 2013) Battaloğlu İnanç, BetülThe problem of excessive weight and obesity is increasing world-wide. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there are over 1.6 billion overweight and 400 million obese people in the world; in 2015, these figures are expected to reach 2.3 billion and 700 million, respectively. Ninety percent of obese adolescents are at risk of becoming obese adults; 75% of obese 12-year-olds go on to become obese adults; of 7-year-olds, 41% of obese ones become obese in adulthood; 25% of those obese in the pre-school period become obese adults; and 14% of obese infants are at risk of becoming obese adults. The presence of childhood obesity increases the risk of non-communicable diseases such as metabolic syndrome (MS), type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension (HT), hyperlipidemia, cardiovascular disease, and certain cancers (1). In clinical studies, the prevalence of MS in childhood was found to be approximately 3-4%. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the prevalence of MS in southwest part of Turkey.
