Sexual dimorphism in the atlas vertebra of normal and overweighted subjects with its possible surgical implications.
Background: We aimed to detect the sexual dimorphism in the width and external anteroposterior length (EAPL) values of the atlas vertebra, and to detect significant correlations between the width and EAPL with height, weight and body mass index (BMI) in normal weight and in overweighted subjects.
Methods: The width and EAPL were measured in 63 (32 females, 31 males) normal weight and in 61 (30 females, 31 males) overweighted individuals that underwent a cervical spine computed tomography scan. Data was first compared between all females and males, and secondly was compared between normal and overweight individuals. Spearman's correlation analysis was used to evaluate correlations between width and EAPL with height, weight and BMI.
Results: Atlas width and EAPL were significantly higher in normal and overweight males (p<0.001). No correlations were found between height, weight and BMI and the width and EAPL in normal and overweight individuals. The only significant correlation found was between width and EAPL in both normal and overweight individuals (p <0.001).
Conclusions: There is sexual dimorphism in atlas width and EAPL, with males presenting significantly higher values but there are no correlations between height, weight and BMI and the width and EAPL in both normal and overweight individuals. In addition, being overweight does not affect the correlation between width and EAPL.
期刊介绍：
World Neurosurgery has an open access mirror journal World Neurosurgery: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review.
The journal''s mission is to:
-To provide a first-class international forum and a 2-way conduit for dialogue that is relevant to neurosurgeons and providers who care for neurosurgery patients. The categories of the exchanged information include clinical and basic science, as well as global information that provide social, political, educational, economic, cultural or societal insights and knowledge that are of significance and relevance to worldwide neurosurgery patient care.
-To act as a primary intellectual catalyst for the stimulation of creativity, the creation of new knowledge, and the enhancement of quality neurosurgical care worldwide.
-To provide a forum for communication that enriches the lives of all neurosurgeons and their colleagues; and, in so doing, enriches the lives of their patients.
Topics to be addressed in World Neurosurgery include: EDUCATION, ECONOMICS, RESEARCH, POLITICS, HISTORY, CULTURE, CLINICAL SCIENCE, LABORATORY SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, OPERATIVE TECHNIQUES, CLINICAL IMAGES, VIDEOS
