Neck circumference as an anthropometric measure of obesity in diabetics

open access: yesNorth American Journal of Medical Sciences, 2013
Obesity is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus. Insulin resistance is associated with visceral subcutaneous fat content. Neck circumference (NC) is a marker of upper body subcutaneous adipose tissue distribution.The aim of this study is to compare NC in diabetics and non-diabetics and to correlate NC with other anthropometric measures.A cross ...

Elevated neck circumference and associated factors in adolescents [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Public Health, 2015
Upper body subcutaneous fat, estimated by neck circumference (NC), may present greater metabolic risk than visceral fat. The aim of this study was to determine cutoff values for NC in adolescents that identify overweight and obesity, the prevalence of elevated NC, and its association with associated factors.Cross-sectional study with adolescents from ...
