Abstract

Antrhropometric measurements have great significance in evaluating an individual's age and health status as well as the public health. Body weight, height and bodymass index (BMI) are the most frequently used techniques as antrhropometric measurements when determining an individual's nutrition, general health status and obesity. In this study, the relationship between general health status and anthropometric measurements are studied in women and men aged between 18-65 and aged over 65 in Tabriz, Iran in 2016-2017. A total of one-thousand individuals from both sexes have voluntarily participated. In this population sample, height and weight measurement were taken. BMI were calculated from weight(kg)/height(m2) formula. BMI value is 26.58 in women, which is found to be higher than 26.27 in men. When it comes to general public health status, goitre, blood pressure, diabetes, cerebrovascular diseases, calcification were found more prevalent in women and associated with their BMI value. Cerebrovasculer diseases are found more prevalent in men in comparison to women

Abstract

Antropometrik ölçümler toplum sağlığı, yaş ile birlikte bireylerin sağlık durumlarının değerlendirilmesinde büyük öneme sahiptir. Vücut ağırlığı, boy uzunluğu ve beden kütle endisi bireyin beslenme, genel sağlık durumu ve obezitenin tespitinde çalışmalarında en çok kullanılan antropometrik ölçümlerdendir. Bu çalışma 2016-2017 yılında İran-Tebriz 18-65 yaş ve üzeri kadın ve erkeklerde genel sağlık durumu ve antropometrik ölçülerle bağlantısı araştırılmıştır. Çalışmaya gönüllü her iki cinsiyetten toplam 1000 birey (562 kadın, 438 erkek) katılmıştır. Bu bireylerde boy ve ağırlık ölçümleri alınmıştır. BMI ağırlık (kg) / boy (m2 ) formülünden hesaplanmıştır. BMI değeri kadınlarda 26.58 ve erkeklerde 26.27 olduğu görünmektedir. BMI kadınlarda daha yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur. Genel sağlık durumunda ise, guatr hastalığı, tansiyon, şeker hastalığı, beyin damar hastalıkları, kireçlenme kadınlarda daha yaygın olduğu ve BMI değeri ile bağlantılı olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Kalp-damar hastalıkları erkeklerde kadınlara oranlara daha yaygın olduğu bulunmuştur
