Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, Siirt ilinde yaşayan 19-64 yaş arası bireylerin biyoelektrik impedans analizi (BİA) ile belirlenen vücut kompozisyonu parametrelerini cinsiyet, yaş ve beden kütle indeksi (BKİ) gruplarına göre değerlendirmektir.
Materyal ve Metot: 2021-2024 yılları arasında Siirt Sağlıklı Hayat Merkezi arşivinden elde edilen, 1062 yetişkine (286 erkek, 776 kadın) ait tekil ölçüm verileri retrospektif olarak analiz edilmiştir. Ölçümler InBody 270 cihazı ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Tanımlayıcı istatistikler, Welch ANOVA, Games-Howell testi ve çoklu doğrusal regresyon analizleri kullanılmıştır (p<0,05).
Bulgular: Kadınların BKİ, toplam yağ ve visseral yağ düzeyleri erkeklerden anlamlı düzeyde yüksek bulunmuştur. Erkeklerde ise yağsız vücut kütlesi, iskelet kası ve mineral miktarları daha fazladır. Çoklu regresyon analizine göre, visseral yağ düzeyi, iskelet kas kütlesi ve yaş, BKİ ile en güçlü ilişkili değişkenler olarak saptanmıştır (R²=0,822).
Sonuç: Kadınlar ve ileri yaş grubunda visseral yağlanmanın arttığı, BKİ’nin tek başına yeterli olmadığı ve cinsiyete özgü kompozisyon analizlerinin obezite yönetiminde önem taşıdığı sonucuna varılmıştır.

Retrospective Evaluation of Body Composition Parameters Measured by Bioimpedance Method According to Gender, Age, and BMI: The Case of Siirt Province

Öz

Objective: To evaluate body composition parameters determined by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) in adults aged 19-64 years in Siirt, Türkiye, across gender, age, and body mass index (BMI) categories.
Materials and Methods: This retrospective study analyzed single‐measurement data from 1062 adults (286 males, 776 females) recorded at the Siirt Healthy Life Center between 2021 and 2024. Measurements were obtained using an InBody 270 device. Descriptive statistics, Welch’s ANOVA, Games-Howell tests, and multiple linear regression were applied (p<0.05).
Results: Females exhibited significantly higher BMI, total fat mass, and visceral fat levels than males, whereas men showed greater fat-free mass, skeletal muscle mass, and bone mineral content. Regression analysis identified visceral fat level, skeletal muscle mass, and age as the factors most strongly associated with BMI (R²=0.822).
Conclusions: Increased visceral adiposity in females and older age groups, along with the insufficiency of BMI alone, underscores the importance of gender-specific composition analyses in obesity management.
