dc.description.abstractThe Adductor Pollicis Muscle Thickness (APMT) value is the numerical value obtained by measuring the thickness that contains components such as tissue, skin, nerve and adipose tissue by means of a caliper. A new anthropometric measurement technique, APMT, is promising for clinical use in conditions such as obesity and malnutrition. In this study, it is aimed to compare APMT measurement with other anthropometric measurements in overweight-obese and normal weight female individuals. Healthy female individuals living in Sivas, between the ages of 18-25, overweight-obese and with normal weight were included in the study. APMT measurements were taken from both the right and left hands of the participants. The measurements were repeated twice and the average of the measurements was taken. The study sample was divided into normal weight and overweight-obese groups. A total of 46 individuals were included in the study by including 23 women in the groups. While obese individuals constitute 15.2% of the sample; overweight individuals constitute 34.8%. While APMT-R was 15.37±1.90, APMT-L was 15.04±1.78 mm in individuals with normal weight; APMT-R was 17.10±2.81 and APMT-L was 16.69±22.75 mm in overweight and obese individuals. APMT and APMT index values measured on both the right and left hands were found to be higher in overweight-obese individuals than in individuals with normal weight (p
