dc.description.abstractAim: This study aims to evaluate the relationship between body mass index and navicular drop in healthy young individuals by considering gender differences. In addition, it is to support the literature for a better understanding of the effect of the foot on the balance mechanisms and to contribute to the development of new approaches in addition to the existing treatment approaches. Methods: A hundred medical school students between the ages of 18-25 were included in our study. The participants’ age, height, and weight information were recorded, and body mass index (BMI) was calculated. The navicular drop test was performed to measure the pronation response of the foot. Results: The mean±SD values of the determined parameters in men and women were as follows respectively: Age: 20 and 20; Height (cm): 179±12.7 and 163±0.05, Weight (kg): 78.8±5.3 and 54.5; BMI (kg/m2): 24.4±3.5 and 20.2, right navicular tubercle height in a sitting position (SNTR): 43.7±4.8 and 38.7±5.1; right navicular tubercle height in a standing position (StNTR): 36.4±4.2 and 24.9±4.8; the navicular drop rate of the right foot (NDRR): 7.2±4.2 and 7.2±5.3; left navicular tubercle height in a sitting position (SNTL): 37.2±3.5 and 32.3±5.3; left navicular tubercle height in a standing position (StNTL): 30±4.7 and 31.5±5.2; the navicular drop rate of the left foot (NDRL): 7.2±4.7 and 7.4±4.6. Conclusion: As a result of our study, it is seen that an insignificant change in the rate of navicular drop as the body mass index increases in men and women.en_US
