Abstract

The balance between nutrient intake and nutritional requirement is important for optimal health; in this context, determining nutritional status is fundamental. Neck circumference (NC) is one of the anthropometric measurements used to determine the nutritional status; this is a simple technique that helps to reach the result without the need for more complex methods. In addition, NC is accessible and easy to measure; as this measurement does not change throughout the day, the usability of this method is currently being investigated. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the relationship between NC measurement and other anthropometric measurements, nutritional related diseases and related biochemical findings and metabolites. As a result of the literature review conducted for this purpose, NC is evaluated in comparison to other anthropometric measurements (body weight, body mass index, waist circumference, hip circumference and waist / hip ratio), as well as examined for high correlation for the risk of obesity and metabolic syndrome. In addition, NC also appears to be a measurement tool that can be used to identify insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, cardiovascular diseases and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.

Özet

Besin ögeleri alımı ile besin ögeleri gereksinmesi arasındaki dengenin sağlanması optimal sağlık için önem taşımaktadır. Beslenme durumunun saptanması bu açıdan önemlidir. Boyun çevresi ölçümü (Neck circumference-NC) beslenme durumunun saptanmasında kullanılan antropometrik ölçümlerden biri olup, karmaşık yöntemlere gerek kalmadan sonuca ulaşmaya yardımcı olan basit bir tekniktir. Ayrıca NC erişilebilir ve ölçümü kolaydır, bunun yanı sıra gün içerisinde değişiklik göstermediği için kullanılabilirliği araştırılmaktadır. Bu derlemenin amacı, NC ölçümü ile diğer antropometrik ölçümlerin, beslenme ile ilintili bazı hastalıkların, ilgili biyokimyasal bulguların ve metabolitlerin arasındaki ortaya konulmuş ilişkilerin incelenmesidir. Bu amaçla yapılan literatür taraması sonucunda, NC obezite ve metabolik sendrom riski ile yüksek korelasyon göstermesinin yanı sıra diğer antropometrik ölçümlerle de (vücut ağırlığı, beden kütle indeksi, bel çevresi, kalça çevresi ve bel/kalça oranı) ilişkili olabileceği görülmüştür. Ayrıca NC, insülin direnci, tip 2 diyabet, hipertansiyon, hiperlipidemi, kardiyovasküler hastalıklar ve obstrüktif uyku apnesi sendromunun tanımlanmasında kullanılabilecek bir ölçüm aracı olarak görülmektedir.
