The New Anthropometric Measures in Patients With Hypothyroidism

Öz

Backgrounds: We aimed to compare the new anthropometric measurements and traditional anthropometric measurements as body mass index which are used to display visceral adipose distribution in patients with hypothyroidism. We also aimed to investigate the new anthropometric measurements and Carotid intima media thickness as predictors of cardiovascular risk. Methods: We include patients with hypothyroidism and healthy controls. The patients were divided into 3 groups as overt hypothyroidism, subclinical hypothyroidism and control groups. Demographic data, anthropometric measurements, laboratory findings and CIMT of the patients and control group were also evaluated. Results: The mean ages of the patients in groups were 37.46 ± 8.89, 35.03 ± 13.06 and 38.79 ± 10.46 years respectively (p=0.876). The average of waist circumference in overt hypothyroidism group was statistically higher than control (p<0.01). The averages of waist circumference/height circumference in the hypothyroidism groups were statistically higher than the control. There was a strong correlation according to body adiposity index, abdominal volume index, and body roundness index as new anthropometric measurements and body mass index, waist circumference, hip circumference and waist/height ratio (r>0.750 p<0.001 for all values). The mean value of carotid intima media thickness of the overt hypothyroidism group was significantly higher (p<0.01). Conclusions: We found strong correlations between new anthropometric and traditional anthropometric measurements in patient with hypothyroidism. Cardiometabolic risk has increased in patients with hypothyroidism, and routine use of new anthropometric measurements displaying body fat distribution and central obesity will be useful for early detection and treatment of cardiovascular complications.
