This article is investigating constitutional and age characteristics of the body length, body weight, body mass index (BMI), and the absolute fat mass of Kyrgyz women. The features of the BMI and fat body mass in females with different constitutional and age groups were studied. According to our study, the leptosomatic group of body constitution was determined in 20% of women, while the mesosomatic group noted in 32%, megalosomatic group recorded in 33%, and an indefinite group established in 15% among the studied women. Stenoplastic constitution was 66%-77% in the leptosomal constitution; asthenic thin bone group was 18%-24%; and broad bone group somatotypes were 5-10%. The proportion of the mesoplastic group was 31-66%, which is greater than picnic somatotype (34%-69%). Results of our study revealed constitutional and age peculiarities are important for prescriptions in practical medicine.
The purpose of this study was to determine the thickness of skin and fat folds in Kyrgyz women of various ages, taking into account their somatotypological profile. Using the method of complex anthropometry, including the determination of the values of 21 anthropometric parameters, the physical status of 1028 Kyrgyz women of different age groups was studied youth (16-20 years old 310 girls), mature age (1st period, 21-35 years old 308 women; 2nd period, 36-55 years 410 women) living in Osh, Kyrgyzstan. For somatotyping, we used the scheme of constitutional diagnostics. Seven somatotypes distinguished within three constitutional groups. The subcutaneous fat was measured by caliperometry. Statistical processing carried out using the statistical programs Microsoft Excel and the STATISTICA package (v. 6.0). To determine the reliability of the differences between the indicators, the Student's test was used (p < 0.05). The results demonstrate that within each somatotype there are broad changes in the studied anthropometric indicator. Thus, the thickness of the skin and fat folds is the smallest in women of asthenic, athletic and stenoplastic (p < 0.05), and the largest in representatives of the euriplastic and pycnic somatotypes (p < 0.05). Thus, indicators of physical status in adolescence and adulthood in women have a pronounced somatotypological specificity. These materials on the physical development and constitutional and typological characteristics of the studied population of women applicable for a personalized approach in the context of a relative norm.
Objective to study the quantitative parameters of the bone component of the body in women of different age groups, taking into account body types. Material and methods. The physical status of 580 female Kyrgyz women was studied, which were ranked into three age groups: the youth period (16-20 years) - 210 girls, the 1st period of adulthood (21-35 years) - 186 women and the 2nd period of adulthood (36-55 years) - 184 women. Somatotyping was carried out according to the scheme of I. B. Galant - B. A. Nikityuk - V. P. Chitetsov (1983), in the presence of their informed consent. The content of the bone component was determined by J. Matiegka (1921). Results. Among the studied women, the leptosomal group of constitutions was 20%, mesosomal 32%, megalosomal 33% and indeterminate-15%. In comparison with the absolute content of bone component in girls of leptosomal Constitution, it in girls of mesosomal group almost does not change, megalosomal group increases 1.2 times (p0.05), uncertain Constitution 1.1 times more (p0.05). Compared with the percentage of the bone component of the body in women girls leptosomal Constitution, the value of this indicator in girls mesosomal group is less than 1.2 times (p0.05), megalosomal-1.3 times (p0.05), indeterminate Constitution-1.5 times (p0.05). In women of the 1st period of Mature age of the leptosomal Constitution, this indicator, compared with its value in women of mesosomal, megalosomal and indeterminate groups, is 1.4 times less (p0.05). In women of the 2nd period of mature age of leptosomal Constitution, this parameter, compared with its value in women of the mesosomal group is less than 1.4 times (p0.05), megalosomal group 1.5 times (p0.05), uncertain Constitution 1.6 times (p0.05). Conclusions. The absolute severity of the bone component of the body has minimal values in girls and women of Mature age with asthenic thin-boned somatotype (6,0 7,1 kg), the maximum-with euriplastic somatotype (6,6-9,2 kg). In women of the 2nd period of adulthood, compared with girls, the value of this indicator in representatives of all somatotypes decreases (1.1-1.2 times).
