Aim. To identify the features of physical development of boys and girls aged 17-18 from various social groups in the Tyumen region. Materials and methods. A survey was conducted of 328 young men and women aged 17-18 years on the basis of educational institutions in the Tyumen region. The group of young men and women surveyed was divided according to their constitutional type and socio-economic status. Anthropometric methods included studies of the longitudinal, transverse, and girth dimensions of the body according to the generally accepted method (V. G. Nikolaev, 2005). The assessment of constitutional affiliation was carried out according to the scheme of V. G. Shtefko and A. D. Ostrovsky in the modification of S. S. Darskaya (1975). The obtained data were processed on a computer using applied mathematical programs. Results. Based on anthropometric studies of the body of young men and women of the Tyumen region, the presence of features in the longitudinal, transverse and girth dimensions that characterize their constitutional affiliation and physical development of individuals of various social groups was established. The lag of children of the main group in indicators of physical development and the formation of a weak dis-harmonious physique was established. The results of the study expand the scientific understanding of the features of growth processes in children of different social groups, complement the knowledge in the field of age and constitutional human anatomy. Conclusion. The obtained data should be taken into account when developing correctional programs aimed at improving the health of children, which allow reducing the impact of an unfavorable environment and normalizing physical development indicators in young people of the Tyumen region.
Goal. To establish the features of the anatomical structure of the body of young men and women of various constitutional types and social groups. Material and methods. The somatotypological features of 328 children aged 17-18 years, who were students of secondary educational institutions of the Tyumen region, were determined. The data on the study were distributed according to the following characteristics: age, gender, constitution, and social group. The main group consisted of people who lived in dysfunctional families, and the children from the control group grew up and were brought up in prosperous conditions. Results. The study significantly complements the data on the physical development of young children of different constitutions and social groups of the Tyumen region. The obtained metric characteristics are the basis for creating an algorithm for evaluating somatic types in the considered child population. The morphotypological deviations in physical development revealed in the course of the study make it possible to prevent the development of pathological processes and to correct the existing disorders. Conclusion. Individual and typological features of the physique are recommended for use in the selection of preventive measures for health protection in educational institutions and the development of regional corrective health programs.
Aim. To identify the variability of somatometric parameters and body composition in young people of certain constitutional types and social groups. Material and methods. The survey involved 328 people (162 boys and 166 girls) who lived in different social environments. The representatives of the control group were brought up in a well-off family, and the persons of the main group lived in dysfunctional families. The measurement methods included the main indicators of total body size. Results. Data on the degree of severity of the main components of body weight in young people are presented and significant differences are established among representatives of individual constitutions and social groups. The shown relationships between the main tissue components of body weight and soma allow us to scientifically justify the development of corrective rehabilitation programs to reduce the risk of developing prenosological conditions. Conclusions. The comprehensive study of the somatic status and body composition of young people expands the understanding of the differences in the morphofunctional parameters of the human body. The obtained results of the study allow us to more objectively characterize the structural and functional organization of the soma at this stage of development and to establish the influence of social factors on the vital activity of the organism.
