Determining the indicators of the external body structure, which are inherent in highly qualified athletes of a particular sport during the annual training macrocycle, can be reliable markers in sports selection. The aim of the work is to determine the differences of anthropometric dimensions in qualified young women volleyball players at the beginning of the preparatory period and at the end of the competitive period of the annual training cycle. We examined 36 young women volleyball players of the section of sports improvement of National Pirogov Memorial Medical University, Vinnytsya and the women’s volleyball team of the Super League of Ukraine “Bilozgar – Medical University”. All volleyball players belonged to a juvenile age (from 16 to 20 years) and had a high level of sportsmanship. We conducted two surveys of volleyball players during the 2018-2019 study year: the first – in September 2018, which corresponded to the beginning of the preparatory period of the annual training cycle; the second – in May 2019, which was at the end of the competitive period of the annual training cycle. Anthropometric measurement was performed by the method of V.V. Bunak (1941). The analysis of the obtained results was performed in the license package “Statistica 5.5” using non-parametric methods of evaluation of indicators. At the end of the competition period, compared to the preparatory training period, volleyball players of high level of sportsmanship in adolescence showed a statistically significant decrease in body weight with a significant increase in shoulder width, chest circumference on inspiration, thighs and crus in the upper third, and a tendency to larger values of the height of the suprasternal and shoulder points, torso length and transverse mid-chest diameter. Certain somatometric features of volleyball players can be considered from two aspects: first, as a consequence of qualified prognostic sports selection, and secondly, as a result of training and competitive sports activities. Analysis of external body parameters in volleyball players during the annual macrocycle can be used as criteria for ascertaining sports selection, because when selecting at the stages of advanced specialization it is necessary to identify athletes capable of achieving high sports results, effective sports improvement in subsequent stages of training.
The success of the solution to the problem of treatment and prevention of obstetricgynecological pathology largely depends on the extent to which the relationship between the sonographic sizes' of the uterus and the ovaries with the constitutional parameters of the body will be fully and systematically studied. The purpose of the work is to establish differences in correlations of ultrasonic sizes of the uterus in different phases of the menstrual cycle (MC) with anthropo-somatotypological parameters of the body of practically healthy young women of ecto-and mesomorphic somatotypes. Primary indices of sonographic sizes of the uterus, as well as anthropometric and somatotypological parameters in 78 healthy urban young women of Podillia with duration of MC 28 days were obtained from the data bank of the research center of the National Pirogov Memorial Medical University, Vinnytsya. In a sonographic study in different phases of the MC, the length and width of the body, the length of the neck and the anterior-posterior size (thickness) of the uterus were measured for its largest size, as well as the thickness of the endometrium and myometrium. According to Bunak V. V. scheme anthropometric survey was conducted. The evaluation of the somatotype was carried out using the Carter-Heath mathematical scheme. According to the formulas of J. Matiegka fat, bone and muscle mass components are determined, and according to the American Institute of Nutrition, the muscular component of the body mass. The analysis of the correlations of the obtained results was carried out in the licensed package "Statistica 6.1" with the use of nonparametric statistics of Spearman. In young women with mesomorphic somatotype, regardless of the phase of MC, in most cases, there are numerous, mostly direct, reliable and unreliable mean strength correlations between the linear size of the uterus, the length of the cervix and the thickness of the myometrium, and most of the total and longitudinal dimensions of the body, as well as between the length of the body of cervix and the width of the distal epiphyses of the upper limb, the majority of the lower limbs girth, the thickness of the skin-fat folds on the lower extremity, and practically all the components of the body weight by Matiegka. In young women with ectomorphic somatotype, regardless of the phase of the MC, numerous, mostly direct, reliable average forces and strong and unreliable mean strength connections between all echometric dimensions of the uterus and all total, most of the longitudinal dimensions of the body (with the exception of the thickness of the endometrium), the width of the distal epiphysis forearm, most of the girth dimensions, shoulder width and muscle mass components of the body using the Matiegka method and the American Institute of Nutrition are set. Attention is drawn to the average strength, mostly reliable, feedback correlations regardless of the MC phase, between all echometric dimensions of the uterus and the ectomorphic component of the somatotype. So, between young...
Numerous studies have shown that teleroentgenographic indicators differ in people of different races, ethnicities, different populations, inhabitants of different geographical areas and often differ from the values of such indicators described by the authors of classical methods of cephalometric analysis. The aim of the study was to establish teleroentgenographic parameters that can be most often corrected during orthodontic and surgical interventions and to determine their features in Ukrainian young men and young women with orthognathic occlusion depending on profiles and facial types according to Schwarz A. M. The results of studies of lateral teleroentgenogram of the head of 49 young men aged 17 to 21 years and 76 young women aged 16 to 20 years with a physiological bite as close as possible to orthognathic using dental cone-beam tomography Veraviewepocs 3D Morita (Japan) are presented in this work. The morphometric teleroentgenographic parameters of the upper and lower jaws and inter-jaw parameters, which can most often change during surgical, orthodontic, cosmetic interventions in groups of persons with different profiles or types of faces according to Schwarz A. M., were determined. All significant differences between groups of young men with different facial profiles and between groups of young women with different facial profiles are of the same type: in both young men and young women with the first type of face profile – angle B is greater than in representatives with the third profile type, and angle MM is greater than in representatives with the third and second profile types; both in young men and young women with a second face type profile – distance R.asc. larger than the representatives with the first profile type; in both young men and young women with the third face profile type, the angle F is larger than in the representatives with the first profile type, the angle I is larger than in the representatives with the first and second profiles type, and the distances L-Mand and R.asc. larger than the representatives with the first profile type; the angle T have greater values in young men or young women with the first profile type of the face than with the second and third profiles type and have greater values in the representatives with the second profile type than with the first type profile of the face. Another picture is observed in the analysis of indicators in young men and young women with different face types. Thus, in persons with the third type of face the distance Max is greater than in persons with the first type and with the second type of face; the angle F in young men or young women with the third type of face is greater than in representatives with the second and first types, and in representatives with the second type – greater than in young men or young women with the first type of face. Young men with the first type of face have higher values of angles G, B and T than young men with the third type and angle B than young men with the second type of face; in young men with the second type of face – greater values of angle I than in young men with the first type and angle B than in young men with the third type of face; young men with the third type of face have larger values of angle I and distance R.asc. than young men with the first type of face. In young women, only tendencies to higher values of I and T angles were recorded in persons with the third type of face than with the first type. The obtained results indicate the need to divide young men and young women into separate groups according to the profile and type of person for an individualized approach to the definition and analysis of teleroentgenographic indicators in the population of Ukraine.
