10-15 Yaş grubu adölesanlarda antropometrik ölçümlerin değerlendirilmesi

Bu çalışma, adölesanlarda obezitenin ve antropometrik ölçümlerin değerlendirilmesi amacıyla yürütülmüştür. Ankarada özel bir vakıf okulunun orta ve lise kısmına devam eden 10- 15 yaş arası 203 erkek ve 210 kız, toplam 413 adölesan araştırmaya alınmıştır. Adölesanların vücut ağırlığı, boy uzunluğu, üst orta kol çevresi, bel/kalça oranı ve vücut su oranı erkek adölesanlarda kızlara göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmuştur (p

Evaluation of anthropometric measurements in adolescents from the age group 10-15

The study was conducted to evaluate obesity and anthropometric measurement in adolescents. The study covered 413 adolescents, 203 males and 210 females from the age group 10-15 attending to first and second levels of a private foundations secondary school in Ankara. Weight, height, mid-upper-arm-circumference, waist-hip ratio and body water content in male adolescents were found as significantly different, in statistical terms, than those of female adolescents (p<0.01). The body mass index is 21.8 ± 2.3 in males and 22.3 ± 3.8 kg/m 2 in females. Bioelectrical impedance measurement yields body water value as 469.2 ± 41.2 for boys and 532.1 ± 66.3dür for girls. The total body water percentage is found as 46.6% ± 6.0 in boys and 34.4% ± 4.1 in girls. In both sexes, the relationship between waist circumference and body fat percentage is significant (r<0.05). Also significant is the relationship between the thickness of triceps skin and body fat percentage (P<0.01). Examining anthropometric correlations of adolescents, we find a significant relationship between waist circumference and body fat percentage. As an important indicator of obesity, regular tracking of anthropometric measurements in adolescents is essential for the timely adoption of relevant measures.
