INFLUENCE OF HIGH AND MIDDLE ALTITUDE ON ANTROPOMETRIC INDEXES OF BOYS IN AGE TO TRI YEARS

A.K. Kayumov, G.S. Vatanbekova

Authors showed very well that climate geographical conditions have important influence on growth of children of yearly age. Depending from altitude above sea-level dynamics and temps of antropometric indexes are different. At high altitude growth-weight indexes of boys are lower than at middle altitude, and circle of thorax, on the contrary, are higher in age of two-tri years. The fact shows that adaptation reactions to high altitude conditions begin to form at yearly children age.

Keywords: antropometric indexes, high altitude , adaptation, children.
