Summary

Volunteer female and male individuals aged 20-65 years, followed in the State Hospital Internal Diseases Unit, diagnosed with obesity (BMI\> 30 kg/m\^2), and meeting the inclusion criteria will be included in the study. The control group will consist of healthy male and female individuals between the ages of 20-65 who have not been diagnosed with obesity. The demographic and clinical characteristics of the participants who voluntarily accepted to participate in the study will be questioned with the "Evaluation Form" prepared by the researchers, and the body compositions of the participants will be evaluated. The "Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI)" will be used to determine the existing chronic diseases of the participants and to evaluate participants' comorbidities. Next; the "Incremental Shuttle Walk Test (ISWT)" will be applied to determine exercise capacity. In addition, in order to determine the level of physical activity, a "pedometer" device will be given to the participants, participants will be asked to carry the device on them for 7 days, and at the end of the period, the pedometer data will be recorded. At the same time, participants will be required to fill in the "International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF)". Participants will be asked to fill in the "Stop-Bang Test" to assess the risk of sleep apnea, the "Obesity-Specific Quality of Life Scale (OSQOL)" to assess the health-related quality of life, and the "Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)" to determine the anxiety and depression level of the participants. Handgrip strength will be evaluated with a hydraulic hand dynamometer. Assessments take an average of 45 minutes is planned.

Exercise capacity

The incremental shuttle walking test at increasing speed (ISWT) is one of the field tests used to evaluate exercise capacity. It has been shown that ISWT is a valid and reliable assessment tool that can be used to evaluate exercise capacity in obese individuals. This test is an exercise test in which walking between two cones 10 m apart at increasing speed for 12 minutes is counted as one sit-up for each 10-meter walk between the two cones. It is continued until the patient is unable to continue the test due to shortness of breath, the heart rate reaches 85% of the maximum expected heart rate, or completes the 12-minute test. In this test, the primary measure is the distance walked, and the result is calculated based on the number of shuttles completed.
