Aim: To develop tables to assess the physical development of high schoolers based on the interaction of total physical dimensions. materials and methods: To achieve this goal, we studied the indicators of body length, body weight and chest circumference of 7-17 years old boys (n=1111) and girls (n=1133) of secondary schools in Kyiv (Ukraine). Multiple correlation was used to calculate the interaction of indicators of total physical dimensions, and multiple regression was used to develop gender and age standards of physical development of high schoolers. Results: The tables to assess physical development of high schoolers of a certain gender and age have been developed. The tables contain body length in vertical direction and body weight or chest circumference in horizontal direction, depending on what is needed for determination: the proper values of CC or body weight. The quantitative characteristics of high schoolers with good, excessive, below average and low levels of physical development are presented. Conclusions: Rational organization of physical training of high schoolers is impossible without objective testing of the level of their physical development. Timely corresponding testing is a guarantee in preventing physical strains and health problems.

Introduction. An investigation aimed at studying the modern specific features of the physical development of children of school age of Yekaterinburg city was performed. Material and Methods. Somatic (body length, body weight, chest circumference) and physiometric (vital lung capacity, hand strength) physical development indices of 1378 school students of the city of Yekaterinburg aged from 8 to 16 years were surveyed and studied using the anthropomorphic measurement method (cross-sectional studies). The obtained results were compared with the equivalent physical development results collected from the children within the period between 1894 and 2000, as well as physical development data of school students residing in the large cities of the Russian Federation; Student’s t-test, regression analysis were used. Results. A decline in somatometric indices of the physical development (body length, weight, chest circumference) in all age and gender groups of school students was noted within the period between 1894 and 2017, but the decreased average values of the physiometric parameters, i.e. vital lung capacity, hand strength, were noted from 1985. The average body length and average body weight of school students of the city of Yekaterinburg are not significantly different or higher as compared to the peers residing in the large cities of the Russian Federation. In contrast to the regional physical development standards (as of 2000), each third school student has high or higher than average physical development indices: body length by 26.4%, body weight - 36%, chest circumference - 29.8%; a high incidence of low physiometric parameters was noted: low and lower than average indices of the vital lung capacity are characteristic to 35.1% of school students, hand strength - to 20.4% (right) and 22.9% (left) school students. Conclusion. The obtained results are indicative of the epoch-making changes in the physical development of children of the school age, as well as of certain regional distinguishing features, which may be associated with changes in the social and economic, environmental situation, and life style peculiarities of the modern school students.

The aim of the research was to assess the age variability of anthropometric parameters in schoolchildren of the city of Gomel examined with a 40-year interval. The authors of the article examined schoolchildren of secondary schools in Gomel. Over 2010-2012 the complex cross-sectional morphometrical examination was carried out on schoolchildren aged of 8-16 years without any significant health problems in the city of Gomel (a total of 3105, out of them there were 1452 boys and 1653 girls). The somatometrical program included body length and mass, chest circumference parameters. The absolute and relative parameters of their annual increases were calculated in schoolchildren, which made it possible to determine the periods of their relative acceleration and deceleration indices. The anthropometric data on schoolchildren of the city of Gomel obtained by V.Ya.Leontyev in 1973 and A.I. Kienya, V.A. Melnik over 1994-1996 were used for comparison. The comparative analysis of the gender and age dynamics of morphometric indices in schoolchildren of the city of Gomel aged of 8-16 years in 1973 and over 2010-2012 revealed the processes of acceleration (increase of body length and mass) in boys and asthenization (increase of body length and decrease of body mass) in girls at the beginning of the XXI century. The indices of the chest circumference before and after puberty period in the contemporary school boys and girls were lower, but in the puberty period being higher than in schoolchildren of the same age examined forty years ago. The authors developed, published and put into both practical public health of Belarus and educational process the Tables for the assessment of physical development of schoolchildren of the city of Gomel.

The Impact

The aim of the work was to investigate how gender, age and type of activity in summer affects the indicators of physical development (PD) of children. 1054 students (493 boys and 561 girls) aged 7-16 years took part in the study. The PD of children was studied by assessing somatometric and physiometric indi­cators. To assess the impact of the type of activity, a thematic questionnaire "Summer" was used. It was found that the gender and age of children had a significant effect on PD indicators in the summer. The most intense increase in body length oc­curred at the age of 7-12 years, body weight - in 10-14-year-olds, and up to 16 years grouth of two parameters gradually slo­wed down. From the age of 10, children showed a positive increase in lung capacity (LC). In 15-year-old adolescents, a de­c­rease in both indicators (ChC and LC) was found. It was found that 62% of children carried out educational activities in the summer, 24% of those were engaged in business activities, almost 40% of students were participants in hiking trips and 23% of children attended a children's health camp. The chosen type of activity in the summer influenced the indicators of the pu­pils' PD as follows: educational activities were accompanied by a decrease in body length and strength of the left arm, busi­ness activity, hiking trips and staying in a health camp were accompanied by an increased weight gain and an increase in LC.

Aim. To study the features of the morphofunctional development of the Kazakh nationals of the first year of the M. Kozybaev North Kazakhstan State University arrived for training from the northern and southern regions of Kazakhstan with the goal of developing preventive measures to reduce the adaptive stress to university education. Material and methods. The study involved 400 first-year students 17-18 years old, of both genders, studying at different faculties of the M. Kozybaev North Kazakhstan State University (200 girls and 200 boys) who arrived from the northern and southern regions of the republic. Standard methods of determining anthropometric and functional indices, estimating the adaptive potential and the level of physical health were used. The resulting material is processed by the methods of ANOVA statistical methods. Results. Indices of physical development (length, body weight, chest circumference, Quetelet, Pinje and stenius indices) were shown to be within the age-gender norms, but a comparative assessment of physical health of students showed significant differences in the anthropometric and physiological state depending on the previous area of residence. Thus, the length of growth in northerners was higher than that of southerners. The indices of body weight, chest circumference, and the Quetelet index are higher in representatives of the southern regions. By the type of body build, among the girls and boys hypersthenics predominated in the southern region, normostenics - in the northern region. At the same time, with an increase in the constitution, the absolute and relative values of force indices and the vital index increased. At the same time, students in the southern region had a lower functional reserve of the heart, determined by the magnitude of the double product, the heart rate, and blood pressure. For students of the northerners of both genders, satisfactory adaptation (1st “level of health”) is typical, whereas representatives of the Southern Region had a lower level of adaptive potential, which corresponded to the state of exertion of adaptation mechanisms. Conclusion. Comparative evaluation of morpho-functional indices of the body of students of adolescence revealed features of body size, type of constitution, functional reserves of the cardiorespiratory system depending on the previous region of residence. The data obtained can be used to compile standards for the physical development of young people of different regions of the republic and the development of health programs to reduce adaptive stress.

Purpose of the study: To register the dynamics of the basic parameters of the physical development of children from the fourth preparatory group, as a result of the implementation of an enriched educational content in physical culture pedagogical situations. 54 girls and 67 boys were investigated and measured twice – at the beginning and at the end of the pedagogical experiment. Anthropometric parameters assessed: height, body weight, chest circumference. Methods: Theoretical analysis, pedagogical experiment, anthropometry, statistical methods. Results: Height: the highest increase in that parameter was found in the Experimental Group of boys and the smallest one – in girls of the Control group. Body weight: boys from the EG showed the highest increase, while the lowest one was found in boys from CG. Chest circumference: the greatest increase was measured in CG of, while the smallest one in the EG of girls. In conclusion, we can underline that the changes in the anthropometric parameters are due both to the laws of biological developments of children at that age, as well as to the applied enriched educational content.

Preserving and strengthening the health of orphaned children and children left without parental care is of great medical, social and public significance. The aim of the study. Assess the health status of adolescents without parental care. Material and methods. The object of the study was teenagers left without parental care (adolescents from 10 to 18 years old). The total sample size was 2,499 adolescents. Assessment of physical development was carried out on the hardware-software complex "Health-Express". This high-tech equipment, developed by the "Kazakh-Russian Medical University". Results and discussion. The authors have shown that at the present stage, there are negative trends in the number of children with disharmonious physical development due to lack of body length. For example, the frequency of identified disharmonious physical development in the age group 10-14 years was 71.8% and in the first childhood group 28.2%. The main reason for disharmonious physical development was a growth deficiency and moderate body weight deficiency. Conclusions. The main reason for the disharmonious physical development of adolescents left without parental care was a deficit in height and a moderate deficit in body weight. Keywords: physical development, teenagers, orphans, "Health-Express", body mass index, body length.

This experiment was conducted to study the morphometric and genetic diversity of Tegal, Magelang, and their crossbred ducks. Each ten female about twenty weeks old ducks from Tegal, Magelang, Gallang, and Maggal ducks, respectively, were used as the group materialss. The body weight, chest circumference, body length, shank length, neck length, and pubis width were recorded and tested by analysis of variance of one way classification as the morphometric characteristics. Polymorphism of cytochrome b (cyt b) gene on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) was analyzed by Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Genetic distance was analyzed based on value of heterozygosity, whereas the phylogeny tree was reconstructed using MEGA6 software. The results showed there were highly significant difference (P<0.01) on body weight, chest circumference, body length, and neck length between population, while shank and pubis width were not significant different. The genetic distance between Gallang and Maggal ducks (0.206) was higher than Tegal and Magelang ducks (0.169). It is concluded that the reciprocal crosses increased the morphometric and genetic diversity of Indonesian local duck population.

The study objective was to analyze the parameters of physical development (body length and weight) in children and youth 7-17 yo – students of Volgograd region educational institutions over 2012-2016 using the percentile method. Material and methods — We examined 4,367 school students, of which 2,056 and 2,311 were boys and girl, correspondingly. The body lengths and weights were assessed by conventional methods. The results were processed using the programs Statistica 6.0 and MATLAB 7. Results — The values of the body length and weight centiles (3, 10, 25, 50, 75, 90 and 97%) in 7-17 yo girls and boys were computed. It was established that the lowest body length indicators were currently typical for 7 yo boys. Starting at 13 yo, body length indicators in boys were ahead of those for girls. In 15-16 yo girls, growth stabilization was observed, while boys continued growing until the age of 17 yo. All percentile values of body weight in primary school age boys (except for 8 year-olds) were ahead or equivalent to those of girls. At the level of 75-97% in all age groups, the body mass values in boys were ahead of those in girls. At the age of 16-17 yo, all percentile values of body weight in boys were higher than in girls. Harmonious physical development was detected in 69.6% of boys and 61.7% of girls. Conclusion — Percentile analysis of body lengths and weights in children and youth of the Volgograd region facilitated the identification of gender-specific characteristics and assessment of harmonious physical development.
