The Study of the Body Structure and Total Cholesterol Level Dependence on the Type of Evolutive Constitution of Second Adulthood Men
Measurement 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) as well as the study of serum total cholesterol have been made on the men of a second adulthood. Investigation showed that 39% of men had trochanter index (TI) more than 2,04. Indicator of the body length slightly decreases with increasing TI. The body mass index does not depend on the value of TI and is within 75–90 percentiles. The body mass index value does not depend on the trochanter index. The trend of increasing the body fat mass and relative fat mass (%) has been revealed within the group of men with low (1,92–1,94) and high values of trochanter index (> 2,04). High levels of serum total cholesterol has been observed within the group of men with high values of trochanter index (more than 2,04) in comparison with men, that had the average trochanter index values. Negative correlation (r = –0,249) between indicators of the serum total cholesterol level and lean body mass is shown as the trend (p = 0,203).
