Waist circumference, hip circumference, arm span, and waist-to-hip ratio high risk of polycystic ovarian syndrome
【Abstract】
'Polycystic ovarian syndrome is a reproductive problem of women with high prevalence cases accompanied by obesity conditions. Obesity condition can be seen from the size of waist circumference, hip circumference, arm span, and waist-to-hip ratio. This study aims to find out the risk factors between waist circumference size, hip circumference, arm span, and waist-to-hip ratio with polycystic ovarian syndrome.', 'This research is an analytical observation using a case-control approach conducted at Sekar Fertility Clinic and Poly Obgyn Dr Moewardi General Hospital Surakarta. Subjects were 150 consisting of 75 polycystic ovarian syndrome women and 75 normal fertile women. Sampling techniques used in this study are purposive sampling, researchers doing anthropometric measurements in the form of waist circumference, hip circumference, arm span, and waist-to-hip ratio simultaneously. The results were analyzed using Statistic Product and Service Solution 25.', 'The results of the study obtained waist circumference with polycystic ovarian syndrome (b = 3.002; CI 95% = 3.41–123.5; p = 0.001), hip circumference (b = −2.671; CI 95% = 0.01–0.37; p = 0.002), arm span (b = 5.318; CI 95% = 32.23–129.58; p < 0.001) and waist-to-hip ratio (b = 1.761; CI 95% = 1.02–33.01; p = 0.047).', 'Waist circumference size, hip circumference, arm span, and waist-to-hip ratio correlate to a high risk of polycystic ovarian syndrome. Arm span is more dominant as an indicator of high risk to polycystic ovarian syndrome compared to waist circumference, hip circumference, and waist-to-hip ratio.'
