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.

Metabolik Sendromun Tespiti İçin Boyun Çevresi Yeni Bir ANTROPOMETRİK ÖLÇÜM Olarak Kullanılabilir Mi?

Boyun çevresi (BÇ) vücudun üst kısmında obezitenin belirlenmesinde kullanılabilecek basit bir tarama yöntemidir. Artmış bir boyun çevresi ölçümünün metabolik sendrom komponentleriyle pozitif korele olduğu ve hiperinsülinemi ve/veya insulin direnci ile de bağlantılı olabileceğini belirten güncel yayınlar vardır.
Metabolik sendrom kriterlerini taşıyan 36 Metabolik sendromlu hasta ve 52 normal kişi çalışmada değerlendirildi. Biyokimyasal değerler, HbA1c ve fruktozamin parametreleri çalışıldı. Ayrıca ant-ropometrik ölçümleri yapıldı. Boyun çevresi ölçümleri hyoid kemik düzeyinde tüm hastalarda aynı hekim tarafından uygulandı.
Metabolik sendromu olan hastaların boyun çevresi ortalaması 36.512.4 cm ölçülürken, kontrol grubunun 34.512.5 cm olarak belirlendi. İstatistiksel olarak fark anlamlıydı (p<0.01).
Kadınlar açısından; metabolik sendromu olanlarda beden kitlesi indeksi, bel kalça oranı ve bel çevresi fazla olanlarda boyun çevresi yönünden de istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulundu (Her üç parametre için p< 0.01 olmak üzere). Erkeklerde de; yüksek beden kitlesi indeksi, bel kalça oranı, bel çevresi ve vücut yağ yüzdesi olanlarda boyun çevresi yönünden de anlamlı bir fark görüldü (sırasıyla p değerleri 0.01, <0.01, <0.05, ve 0.02 ).
Boyun çevresi ölçümü risk faktörü olan hastaların erken belirlenmesinde umut verici ve basit bir antropometrik ölçümdür. Bununla birlikte, boyun çevresi ölçümünün yapılacağı düzey ve ölçüm tekniğinin standardizasyonuna İhtiyaç vardır.
