OBJECTIVE
Obesity is associated with many types of cancers. Despite this, the participation of obese individuals in cancer screenings is limited. The aim of this study was to evaluate the cancer screening-related attitudes of obese patients.
METHODS
The study included 185 obese patients who presented to the obesity center (OC) and 191 obese patients who presented to the family medicine outpatient clinic from October to December 2019. The participants in both groups were first asked whether or not they had ever undergone any cancer screening tests and then provided with relevant training. After 3 months, the participants were contacted again and their attitudes toward cancer screening tests were re-evaluated.
RESULTS
Patients who followed in the OC were found to have higher awareness of and compliance with cancer screening tests than the obese patients admitted to the outpatient clinic. The factors of being female, being followed in the OC, and residing in an urban area were positively associated with participation in cancer screening tests.
CONCLUSION
Monitoring obese patients in target-oriented facilities such as an OC increases the chance of success in the fight against obesity and related health problems.
目的
肥胖与多种癌症有关。尽管如此，肥胖者参与癌症筛查的比例有限。本研究旨在评估肥胖患者的癌症筛查相关态度。
方法
本研究纳入了 2019 年 10 月至 12 月期间在肥胖中心（OC）就诊的 185 名肥胖患者和在家庭医学门诊就诊的 191 名肥胖患者。两组参与者首先被问及是否进行过任何癌症筛查测试，然后接受了相关培训。3 个月后，再次联系参与者，重新评估他们对癌症筛查测试的态度。
结果
与在门诊就诊的肥胖患者相比，在 OC 就诊的患者对癌症筛查测试的认识和依从性更高。女性、在 OC 就诊和居住在城市地区是参与癌症筛查测试的积极相关因素。
结论
在 OC 等以目标为导向的机构中监测肥胖患者，增加了对抗肥胖和相关健康问题的成功机会。
