BACKGROUND: Animal breeds are often recognized through their specific characteristics, nevertheless, the breeds' anatomical and biochemical characteristics have not considered yet in many of the researches done on one-humped camels. There are some particular differences in camel breeds due to different climate conditions and rearing necessity. OBJECTIVES: The aim of the current study was to com...
BACKGROUND Central adiposity is related to chronic disease risk in adolescents. Racial differences in waist circumference have been identified using cross-sectional data from this age group. We tested for racial differences in age-related growth in waist circumference in a longitudinal cohort of black and white adolescent girls. METHODS We analyzed 9 years of publicly available data from the ...
AIM To identify genetic variants underlying six anthropometric traits: body height, body weight, body mass index, brachial circumference, waist circumference, and hip circumference, using a genome-wide association study. METHODS The study was carried out in the isolated population of the island of Korcula, Croatia, with 898 adult examinees who participated in the larger DNA-based genetic epid...
OBJECTIVE Greater accumulation of visceral fat is strongly linked to risk of cardiovascular disease. However, elevated waist circumference by itself does not always identify individuals with increased visceral fat. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We examined 375 subjects with type 2 diabetes from the CHICAGO cohort for presence of hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype (waist circumference >90 cm i...
BACKGROUND Several studies have shown that the waist circumference of children and adolescents has increased over the last 25 years. However, given the strong correlation between waist circumference and BMI, it is uncertain if the secular trends in waist circumference are independent of those in BMI. METHODS We analyzed data from 6- to 19-year-olds who participated in the 1988-1994 through 20...
BACKGROUND Anthropometric measures have been widely used for body weight classification in humans. Waist circumference has been advanced as a useful parameter for measuring adiposity. This study evaluated the correlation between body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference and examined their significance as indicators of health status in adults. DESIGN AND METHODS The subject included 489 he...
Background & Aim: The study of anthropometric measurements at birth leads to the identification of neonates with abnormal intrauterine growths and provides desirable care for the neonates who are at risk of postpartum complications. This study aimed to determine the anthropometric measurements among full term neonates in Torbat Heydariyeh city compared to the global standards reported by the Wo...
To investigate at what age hydrocephalus is detected and to assess the role of head circumference measurements in detecting hydrocephalus, we performed a retrospective chart review in children with hydrocephalus treated in a tertiary paediatric hospital in the Netherlands. The study group contained 146 patients; 38 patients (31%) were referred because of abnormalities in head circumference. Eig...
BACKGROUND Obesity has made obesity-related diseases a worldwide problem. This study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of diet-oriented intervention on obese children with hypertension in China and to determine the relationship between anthropometric indexes and hypertension. METHODS A total of 469 obese children, aged 6 to 18 years, were evaluated between January 2001 and December 2005;...
Serial ultrasound scans were done in 300 fetuses between 16 to 24 weeks of gestation to establish the normogram of fetal kidney circumference (FKC) and fetal abdominal circumference (FAC) ratio (FKC/FAC). Of 300 fetuses, 150 fetuses were in the high risk group for fetal malformation and 150 patients were in the control group. The value of FKC/FAC varied from 0.27 to 0.30 from 16 to 24 weeks of ...
