Morphological and Functional Features of Girls Depending on the Type of the Evolutive Constitution
Measurements of the anthropometric parameters, estimation of trochanter index (TI), definition of the organism constitutional type age-related evolution by V.G. Shtefko (1929) and S.G. Vasilchenko (1990) have been made on girls 16–17 years old. Considerable share (41%) of examined girls in the group has pathological type of the age evolution with TI values ≤ 1,85. The proportion of individuals with normal values TI or slightly deviating from normal (hypoevolutive, norm-evolutive, hyperevolutive types) is 25%. The percentage of persons with disharmonious development because of deficit and excess body weight is higher in extreme types of the age evolution. Excess body weight (body mass index more than 97 percentile) was observed only within the representatives of two extreme types of the age-related evolution with trochanter index values ≤ 1,85 and ≥ 2,09. Protein-energy malnutrition was registered only within the representatives from pathological type with trochanter index ≤ 1,85. 50% of girls have asthenic somatotype, 41% — normosthenic somatotype, 9% — hypersthenic somatotype. This correlation is independent from the age of evolution. Andromorphism decreases with increasing of the trochanter index, disappears completely within the individuals with norm-evolutive somatotype. Gynomorphic somatotype appears within the representatives with pathological type (TI > 2,09).
