Özet
Öz: Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı Malatya ilinde akraba evliliği prevelansını ve ilişkili faktörleri saptamaktır. Yöntem ve Gereç: Örnek seçiminde otuz küme yöntemi kullanıldı. Her kümeden 13 evli kadınla evlerinde görüşülerek 409 kadın araştırma kapsamına alındı. Kadınlara sosyo-demografik ve doğurganlık özellikleri ile malforme çocuk öyküsü bakımından yüz-yüze anket uygulandı. Bulgular: Akraba evliliği prevalansı % 28.4, ortalama soyluluk katsayısı 0.01081 olarak bulundu. Akraba evliliğinin en yaygın tipi olan birinci kuzen evliliği tüm akraba çiftler arasında % 74.2 olarak saptandı. Akraba evliliği yapma sosyo-demografik özellikler ile ilişkili bulunmadı. Akraba evliliği yapanlarda kendiliğinden düşük, ölü doğum ve genetik hastalıklı çocuk sahibi olma daha yüksekti (P<0.05). Veri analizleri için SPSSWIN 13.0 programı kullanıldı. Sonuç: Malatya ilinde akraba evliliği ve birinci kuzen evliliklerinin sıklığı önceden yapılan çalışmalara göre daha yüksek bulundu. Akraba evliliğinin nedenleri ve olumsuz sonuçlarıyla ilgili ileri araştırmalar yapılmalıdır.
Öz (İngilizce): Aims: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of consanguineous marriages and the associated factors in the city of Malatya. Materials and Methods: Thirty cluster survey methodology was used to select the study population. Selecting 13 married women per cluster, a total of 409 women were interviewed at their home. Information on the sociodemographic and fertility characteristics of the women and genetic disorders among children was gathered using a face-to-face questionnaire. Data analysis was done by SPSSWIN 13.0. Results: The overall prevalence of consanguinity was 28.4%, with a mean inbreeding coefficient of 0.01081. The principal type of consanguineous marriage was first-cousin marriages, which account for 74.2% of all consanguineous unions. There was no association between consanguinity and sociodemographic characteristics of the participants. Consanguineous marriages had significantly more spontaneous abortions, infant deaths and children with a genetic disorder (P<0.05). Conclusions: The prevalence of consanguinity and of first-cousin marriages was found to be high in the city of Malatya compared to the studies conducted in the past. Future research on the reasons for and negative outcomes of consanguineous marriages should be conducted.
