Amaç: İkinci parmağın (işaret), 4. parmağa (yüzük) oranı (2D:4D) prenatal testosteronun bir göstergesidir. 2D:4D oranının spor performansı ile ilişkili olduğu bilinmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, kadın hentbolcularda 2D:4D ile sürat, linear yön değiştirme (COD) ve VO2maks arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Araştırmaya Xyaş= 21,77 ± 3,38 yıl, Xboy= 172,05 ± 5,26 cm, Xvücut ağırlığı= 67,22 ± 6,48 kg olan 36 kadın hentbolcu katılmıştır. Sporcuların boy uzunlukları ve vücut ağırlıkları alınarak, beden kitle indeksi (BKİ) hesaplanmış, vücut yağ yüzdesi ile sağ-sol el 2D- 4D parmak ölçümleri yapılmış, 10 m, 20 m, 30 m, linear yön değiştirme ve 20 m mekik testi uygulanmıştır. Sporcuların vücut yağ oranı Tanita marka (BC-418) vücut analiz cihazı ile linear yön değiştirme (change of direction and acceleration test-COD), 10 m, 20 m, 30 m sürat değerleri Fusion Sport marka cihazla değerlendirilmiştir. Sporcuların iki elinin fotokopisi çekildikten sonra, elin palmar yüzünde 2. parmak (işaret parmağı) ve 4. Parmak (yüzük parmağı) proksimal kısmındaki bazal çizgi ile pulpa arası bölge, 0,05 mm'ye kadar ölçüm yapabilen vermiyeli kompas kullanılarak parmak uzunlukları tespit edilmiş ve oranın belirlenmesi için ikinci parmak uzunluğu dördüncü parmak uzunluğuna bölünmüştür. Verilerin analizinde değişkenlerin korelasyon katsayıları ve istatistiksel anlamlılıkları Pearson Korelasyon testi ile hesaplanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler SPSS 20 programında kaydedilmiş ve p<0,01, p<0,05 düzeyindeki veriler istatistiki olarak anlamlı kabul edilmiştir. Bulgular: Analiz sonuçlarına göre, sporcuların 2D:4D ile VO2maks arasında negatif yönde yüksek derecede korelasyon tespit edilmiştir (r=-0,880, p<0,01). Sonuç: Sonuç olarak, yapılan bu çalışmada kadın hentbolcularda prenatal testosteronun bir göstergesi olan 2D:4D'nin VO2maks ile oldukça güçlü bir ilişkisi olduğu belirlenmiştir.

Objective: The ratio of the index finger to the ring finger (2D:4D) is an indication of prenatal testosterone. It is known that the 2D:4D ratio is related to sports performance. The aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between 2D:4D and speed and endurance in female handball players. Material and Methods: A total of 36 female handball players with Xage=21.77±3.38 years, Xheight= 172.05±5.26 cm, Xbodyweight=67.22±6.48 kg. participated in the study. The body height and body weight of the athletes were measured, Body Mass Index (BMI) was calculated, their body fat percentage and right-left hand 2D-4D measurements were taken and 10 m., 20 m., 30 m., linear change of direction and 20 m. shuttle tests were given to the athletes. Body fat ratio of athletes was changed with Tanita brand (BC-418) body analyzer and linear change of direction (acceleration test-COD), 10 m, 20 m, 30 m speed values were evaluated with Fusion Sport brand device. After photocopies of both hands of the athletes were made, inger lengths were determined on the palmar face of the hand, using the verbal line on the proximal part between the 2nd finger (index finger) and the 4th finger (ring finger), which could measure up to 0.05 mm The second finger length is divided by the fourth finger length to determine the ratio. In the analysis of the data, the correlation coefficients and statistical significance of the variables were calculated by Pearson Correlation test. In the analysis of the data, the coefficients of the variables and their statistical significance were calculated using the Pearson coefficient test. The obtained data were recorded in the SPSS 20 software and the data at the p<0.01, p<0.05 level were accepted as statistically significant. Results: According to the results of the analysis, a negative and high correlation was determined between the athletes' 2D:4D and their VO2max (r=-0.880, p<0.01). Conclusion: As a result, in this study, 2D: 4D, which is an indicator of prenatal testosterone, has a strong relationship with VO2max in female handball players.
