Data were drawn from a cross-sectional survey in participants having MS. The patients with different grade of albuminuria were divided into 4 groups according to the value of UACR （〈10, 10-20, 21-30, 〉30 mg/g）. All underwent biochemical tests. Bioelectrical impedance body fat content, islet [3-cell function and insulin sensitivity were measured. Multivariable linear regression mod- els were applied to further determine association between UACR and clinical factors with adjustment. Systolic blood pressure （SBP）, diastolic blood pressure （DBP）, mean arterial pressure （MAP）, fasting plasma glucose （FPG）, glycosylated hemoglobin （HbAlc）, TG, fat mass, fat content and homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance （HOMA-IR） were significantly higher in the group with UACR at 10-20 mg/g than those in the group with UACA lower than 10 mg/g （P〈0.05）. Multivariable linear regression showed that TG, HbAlc, waist-hip ratio （WHR） and SBP were independently associated with UACR. The patients with normal UACR had abnormal levels of MS components. The factors in- dependently associated with UACR were TG, HbAlc, WHR and SBP.展开更多

Today, it is well known how the wide social effects of social networking sites are widespread and effective. As far as it can be followed from written and visual media, it causes significant damages for attitudes and behaviors for individuals. Looking at the results of the study, it seems impossible to limit the time and necessity of these networks for people, but it is understood that people force their limits and capacity. It was determined that the general acceptance and rejection areas are mixed and the dominant distinctive effects were weakened. Unable to prevent social dissolution and deterioration was realized by these social networks of networks. However, we cannot only talk about negative effects because their positive effects should be mentioned. Data were obtained in this direction. For example, some segments encourage the users of these sites to have more freedom, to develop democracy and human rights awareness. However, the real problem is when and where to stand. This study;Social networking networks use information, attitudes and behaviors;It was carried out for the purpose of evaluating the use of nicknames and networks for the use of networks. The data of the study were obtained by the application of a questionnaire and the data obtained were analyzed with appropriate statistical analysis methods. In the first part of the study, field study/operational concept scanning is performed and theoretical information is included. In the second part, the purpose of the study, the problem status, the importance of the study, limitations, assumptions, problem question, research method, research universe and sample are specified and informed. In the third section, the data obtained using appropriate statistical methods are analyzed. In the last section, some important suggestions and comments are made in the light of the data obtained.展开更多
