Özet:

 Aim: Determining the anthropometric characteristics of the nose, which is located in the center of the face, plays an important role not only in surgical procedures but also in identifying ethnic differences. This study aimed to examine the nasal similarities and differences between Kazakhs and Turks who have lived in different regions for more than a thousand years. Material and Methods: The study included 200 Turkish students and 200 Kazakh students. For each student, sixteen distance measurements and five angle measurements of the nose were taken. The photographs were taken using a digital camera mounted on a tripod, with a distance of 1.50 meters between the photographer and the student participating in the study. Digital photographs of the front, left side, and base of the nose were taken in the Frankfurt Horizontal Plan, which is the standard head position. The photographs were transferred to the DIGIMIZER software, where measurements were made using anthropometric points previously determined. Results: The findings reveal that among both societies, nasal measurements tend to be greater for males compared to females. Conversely, females exhibit higher nasofrontal p0.001 and nasolabial p0.001 angles compared to males. Moreover, Turks generally exhibit greater nasal length p0.001, width p0.001, and height p0.037 than Kazakhs, whereas tend to have lower nasofrontal p0.001 and nasolabial p0.001 angles than Kazakhs. Conclusion: Nasal anthropometric measurements for males were generally higher than for females. In addition, all measurements differed between Turks and Kazakhs. The results of this study will be useful for future anthropometric studies.

 Amaç: Yüzün merkezinde yer alan burnun antropometrik özelliklerinin belirlenmesi, sadece cerrahi işlemlerde değil, aynı zamanda etnik farklılıkların belirlenmesinde de önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, bin yıldan fazla bir süredir farklı bölgelerde yaşayan Kazaklar ve Türkler arasındaki burun benzerliklerinin ve farklılıklarının incelenmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya 200 Türk öğrenci ve 200 Kazak öğrenci dahil edildi. Her bir öğrenci için burnun on altı adet mesafe ve beş adet açı ölçümü alındı. Fotoğraflar, fotoğrafçı ile çalışmaya katılan öğrenci arasında 1,50 m mesafe olacak şekilde, tripod üzerine yerleştirilmiş dijital fotoğraf makinesi kullanılarak çekildi. Burnun ön, sol taraf ve tabanının dijital fotoğrafları, başın standart pozisyonu olan Frankfurt Yatay Planında çekildi. Fotoğraflar DIGIMIZER yazılımına aktarıldı ve daha önce belirlenen antropometrik noktalar kullanılarak ölçümler yapıldı. Bulgular: Elde edilen bulgular, her iki toplumda da burun ölçümlerinin erkeklerde kadınlara göre daha büyük olma eğiliminde olduğunu ortaya koydu. Tersine, kadınlar erkeklere kıyasla daha yüksek nazofrontal p0,001 ve nazolabial p0,001 açılar göstermekteydi. Ayrıca, Türkler genel olarak Kazaklardan daha büyük burun uzunluğu p0,001, genişliği p0,001 ve yüksekliği p0,037 sergilerken, Kazaklara göre daha düşük nazofrontal açı p0,001 ve nazolabial p0,001 açılara sahip olma eğilimindeydi. Sonuç: Erkekler için nazal antropometrik ölçümler genellikle kadınlara göre daha yüksekti. Ayrıca, tüm ölçümler Türkler ve Kazaklar arasında farklılık gösteriyordu. Bu çalışmanın sonuçları gelecekteki antropometrik çalışmalar için yararlı olacaktır.
