NUT 107 Demographic Structure and Health İstanbul Kent University Nutrition and Dietetic Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL Nutrition and Dietetic Topics Week 1 Basic Demographic Concepts and Data Sources Week 2 Demographic Indicators Week 3 World population Week 4 Population Structure and Change Week 5 Fertility/ Mortality Week 6 Migration and Urbanization Week 7 Midterm Week 8 Population Policies/ Population and Nutrition Week 9 Maternal and Child Health Week 10 Anthropometric Indicators of Nutrition Week 11 Sustainable Development Goals Week 12 Homework Presentation Week 13 Homework Presentation Week 14 Homework Presentation Week 15 Final Exam Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL Nutrition and Dietetic Anthropometric Indicators of Nutrition Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL Nutrition and Dietetic Anthropometric indicators are used to assess and determine nutritional status. Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL Nutrition and Dietetic Anthropometry Antropos (human) and metris (meter, measurement) derived from the combination of these words. In general, it sizes the physical characteristics of the human body with different measurement principles and makes a classification by creating physical structure features. Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL 5 Nutrition and Dietetic Nutritional Anthropometry Measurement of physical dimensions (height, body weight, circumference, etc.) of people of different ages and nutritional status Determination of body composition (fat and muscle tissue) It is a sensitive method for determining nutritional status and has an important place in nutritional epidemiology. Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL Nutrition and Dietetic Nutritional Anthropometry Anthropometry Design of appropriate rehabilitation equipment based on anthropometric data Empowerment of individuals and identification of nutritional deficiencies Reducing health expenditures It enables individuals to live and move in society like other healthy citizens. Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL Nutrition and Dietetic Assessment of Nutritional Status by Anthropometric Methods 1.Growth Measurements 2.Body Composition 1.1. Height (lying or standing) 2.1. Determination of body fat mass 1.2. Body weight 2.1.1. Skinfold thickness 1.3. Head circumference 2.1.2. Waist-to-hip ratio 1.4. Knee height 2.2.3. Upper middle arm fat area 1.5.Upper middle arm 2.2. Determination of lean body mass circumference Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL Nutrition and Dietetic Indexes for Anthropometric Nutrition Indicator ✔Height by age, ✔Body weight by age, ✔Body weight by height ✔Head circumference by age, ✔Waist/hip ratio, etc. Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL 9 Nutrition and Dietetic Anthropometric Indicators Community-based anthropometric measurements are used in public health research and epidemiologic studies. In this way, data on the nutritional and health status of the population are obtained, and health policies and programs are shaped based on these data. Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL Nutrition and Dietetic Growth: Maturity in terms of size. Development: Changes in the working order of organs. Growth and development: Developments towards adulthood in the size and working order of organs. Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL 11 Nutrition and Dietetic Positive Aspects of Anthropometric Measurements Simple It is reliable. Noninvasive (does no harm). It is not expensive. Easy to implement, anyone can measure with training. When standardized techniques are used, methods are accurate and precise. Expressed in numbers. Objective. Fast. Sensitive. Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL Nutrition and Dietetic Selection of the appropriate method to be used in anthropometry; It depends on; Risk groups, Age, Gender and Available resources Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL 13 Nutrition and Dietetic Standards or Reference Data 1st National 2nd International They are also 1.Longitudinal 2.Cross-sectional Standard: An accepted norm or target. It is a benchmark. In countries with high growth retardation, the target population cannot be realistic. Reference: A tool for grouping and analyzing data. Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL 14 Nutrition and Dietetic Evaluation of anthropometric measurements In society studies, percentiles and z-scores can be used. percentiles: Both can be Percentage of observations below a certain value (%) used The distance and direction of an observation from the mean interchangeably Z-scores: value of a population Percentiles in the evaluation of anthropometric measurements in industrialized countries In developing countries, the use of z-score is recommended. Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL 15 Nutrition and Dietetic When taking anthropometric measurements; It is important to; Regularly check the accuracy of the tools used in measurement, Train the measurers, Find the reference values or standards to benchmark against, Identify the intersection points Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL Nutrition and Dietetic Anthropometric measurements frequently used to determine nutritional status; height body weight skinfold thicknesses (triceps, biceps, suprailiac, subscapula), waist circumference hip circumference, upper middle arm circumference, head circumference, chest circumference, etc. Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL 17 Nutrition and Dietetic Body Weight Components of body weight; Protein (Muscle) Total Fat Bone Mineral Mass Other Parameters Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL Nutrition and Dietetic Body Weight Body weight is a simple but important morphological indicator; It is used to detect; growth rate, obesity and malnutrition. Clinically significant if more than 10% of body weight is lost in less than 6 months. Lecturer Beyzanur ÇAMLIBEL Nutrition and Dietetic Body Weight by Age in Children (0-5 years and 5.5-10 years) Body weight by age: 0-5 years (WHO, 2006) Body weight by age: 5.5-10 years (WHO, 2007) Age Boy (percentile) (kg) Age Girl (percentile) (kg) Boy (percentile) (kg) Girl (percentile) (kg) Year Month Week Year Month Normal Normal Measurements Percentiles Assessment Severely underweight < 3. percentile Underweight ≥3.-
