| Abstract | Kronični gastritis predstavlja progresivnu i stupnjevitu upalu želučane sluznice koja je jedna od najčešćih gastrointestinalnih bolesti, a uključena je u patologiju ulkusne bolesti i karcinoma gastrointestinalnog sustava. Provedeno je presječno istraživanje na 50 odraslih osoba s dijagnozom kroničnog gastritisa (prosječne starosti 43,3 ± 12,1 godina, 20 muškaraca i 30 žena) s područja
banjalučke regije. Upitnikom kreiranim za potrebe ovog istraživanja potvrđeni su sljedeći rizični čimbenici: povećana tjelesna masa (32,0 %) i pretilost (12,0 %), infekcija s Helicobacter pylori (28,7 %), uporaba lijekova (32,6 %), pušenje (32,0 %), konzumacija kave (80,0 % pije minimalno jednu kavu dnevno). Dispepsija je prisutna u različitom intenzitetu (27/50 ima do 4 simptoma, 23/50 ima 5 i više simptoma), a kod 46,0 % ispitanika je unazad 3 mjeseca došlo do promjene u tjelesnoj masi. Dijagnoza ne utječe na subjektivnu kvalitetu života, prosječna razina depresije i stresa je normalna, dok je anksioznost blago izražena prema upitniku za procjenu izloženosti vanjskim čimbenicima rizika, tzv. DASS upitniku. Razina fizičke aktivnosti prema Baeckeovom upitniku je niska ali u skladu sa zdravom populacijom. Ispitanici često preskaču obroke, a prejedanje, pregladnjivanje, pričanje za vrijeme jela i brzo jedenje su u značajnoj mjeri prisutni. Utvrđene pozitivne karakteristike
prehrambenih navika su manji broj dnevnih obroka, niska konzumacija brze hrane, mesnih i suhomesnatih proizvoda, te niska konzumacija alkohola (42,0 % uopće ne pije alkohol). Negativne karakteristike prehrambenih navika uključuju nizak unos voća (posebice banana), povrća (posebice mahunarki i kupusa), ribe (posebice morske), maslinovog ulja i meda, te visok unos slatkiša. |
