Can Neck Circumference Be Used As A New An thropometric Measurement To Detect Meta Bolic Syndrome?

Öz

Neck circumference (NC) which can be used as an obesity index for the upper body part is a simple screening method. There are contemporary articles showing that high NC can be positively correlated with metabolic syndrome components and can be related to hyperinsuli-nemia/ insulin resistance. Thirty- six patients with metabolic syndrome and 52 normal subjects were evaluated. Biochemical parameters, HbA1c and fructosamine were evaluated and anthropometric measurements were done. NC was measured at the level of hyoid bone by same physician in all patients. The mean NC of metabolic syndrome patients was measured as 36.512.4 while mean NC of normal subjects was obtained as 34.512.5 cm; the difference between two groups was statistically significant (p<0.01). Among female patients, there was a statistically significant difference between NC of patients with high body mass index, waist hip ratio and waist circumference (for all three parameters p value being < 0.01). There was also significant statistical difference between NC of male patients with high body mass index, waist hip ratio, waist circumference and body fat index (p values 0.01, <0.01, <0.05, and 0.02) NC is a promising and simple anthropometric measurement technique for early detection of patients with risk factors. There is need for determination of a certain level and standardization of the NC measurement.
