Abstract (2. Language): 
The relationship belween neck circumference and body fen ratio in Turkish women. The aim of the sludy is delermine the relationship between ncek circumference (NC) and body fat mass in Turkish vvomen. Study group İs composcd of 1861 womeıı with various body mass index. (body mass index 14¬58 kg/m2). To fmd the optİmal relationship bctween NC and body mass index (BMI), the receiver output curve (ROC) analysİs for NC against two levels of BMI (25 and 30 kg/m2) was performed. Correlation analysis indicaled a significaııt association between NC and BMI (r: 0.6998, p < 0.001) in toîal cases. NC thal is equal or greatet' than 32 and 35 cm, were the best cutoff levels for determining the women with BMI >= 25.0 and >= 30.0 kg/m2 usİng the ROC analysis, res-pectively. It is coneluded thal NC measurement is a sİmple and time-saving sereening measure and can be used to İdcntify overweight and obesc women. Women that her NC is equal or greater 32 cm are to be considercd overv/cight and İs equal or greater 35 cm are to be considered obesity.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Çeşitli vücut ağırlıklı kadınlarda boyun çevresi (neck circumference, NC) ölçümü ile beden kitle indeksi (body mass index, BMI) arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmak amacıyla gerçekleştirildi. BMI düzeyi 14-58 kg/m2 arasında değişen 1861 kadında 25 ve 30 kg/m2 BMI değeri ile NC arasındaki ilişki "receiver output curve" (ROC) analizi ile araştırıldı. Tüm vakalarda NC ile BMI arasında anlamlı bir ilişki saptandı (r: 0.6998, p < 0.00İ). ROC analizi ise BMI >= 25.0 ve >- 30.0 kg/m2 düzeylerine uyan cn iyi NC cutoff değerleri sırasıyla 32 ve 35 cm bulundu. Bulgularımız, boyun çevresinin fazla kilolu ve şişman Türk kadınlarını belirlemede yardımcı basit bir ölçüm olabileceğini desteklemektedir. NC düzeyi 32 cm'deıı yüksek olanlar fazia kilolu ve 35 cm'deu yüksek olan kadınlar şişman olarak tanımlanabilir
