Abstract:
Objective To investigate the potential relationship between neck circumference and obesity related indexes and metabolic disorders associated with insulin resistance.Methods A random cluster sampling method was used to identify study population among the 4 412 60 -70 years old permanent residents in Renqiu region.Face to face health questionnaire,physical examination,laboratory tests were used.According to the gender group,the correlation between neck circumference and obesity related indexes and metabolic disorders associated with insulin resistance were analyzed.Results Comparing neck circumference and waist circumference,waist height ratio, and body mass index(BMI) of man and woman respondents,the differences were statistically significant.Neck circum-ference and waist circumference,waist height ratio,and BMI had positive correlation(male:r =0.752,0.695 and 0.761.W:r =0.707,0.655,0.721,all P <0.01).Increased trends of neck circumference,waist circumference,waist height ratio and BMI coincided with increased trend of thypertension,diabetes,hyperlipidemia and hyperinsulinemia and hyperlipidemia,and no gender differences.With the increase of the neck circumference,the incidence of above mentioned diseases also increased accordingly.Conclusion Neck circumference was associated with obesity related indexes and metabolic disorders associated with insulin resistance.Neck circumference measurement can be used as an effective indicator of central obesity,and had great significance for early prediction and prevention of metabolic disorders associated with clinical insulin resistance.
