CONNECTIONS OF BODY CONSTITUTIONAL PARAMETERS OF PRACTICALLY HEALTHY WOMEN WITH THE ENDOMESOMORPHIC SOMATOTYPE WITH RHEOENCEPHALOGRAPHY INDICATORS

Abstract

Despite the considerable number of studies devoted to cerebral hemodynamic disorders, it is practically out of the question of determining the relationships between rheoencephalographic indices and constitutional parameters of the body in a practically healthy population.

The aim of the study – to establish the peculiarities of the connections of anthropo-somatometric parameters of the body of practically healthy women of the Podillia of endo- mesomorphic somatotype with indicators of cerebral circulation.

Materials and Metohods. Primary anthropometric and rheoencephalographic indices of practically healthy urban women of Podillia (n = 130) are taken from the data bank of the research center of M. Pyrohov Vinnytsia National Medical University. Using the computer diagnostic complex, the amplitude, time and derivative parameters of the rheoencephalogram were determined. The anthropometric study was conducted according to the scheme of V. V. Bunak. Craniometry included the definition: the girth of the head (glabella), sagittal arc, the greatest length and width of the head, the smallest head width, the width of the face and mandible. The somatotype is determined by the method of J. Carter and B. Heath, the component composition of the mass of the body - according to the method of J. Matiegka and the formulas of the American Institute of Nutrition. The evaluation of correlations of cerebral circulation with anthropo-somatometric parameters of the body of practically healthy women of the endo-mesomorphic somatotype (n = 27) was performed in the statistical package STAT IST ICA 6.0 using the Spirman statistics.

Results and Discussion. The following multiple reliable and moderate forces unreliable correlations of the constitutional parameters of the body with the parameters of cerebral circulation are established: the reciprocal mean strength unreliable (r = -0.30 – -0.33) connections of most amplitude indices (with the exception of the base impedance) with the inter-swivel pelvic distance; direct average strength reliable (r = 0.39 – 0.55) and unreliable (r = 0.33 – 0.38) connections of the duration of the heart cycle and the time of the downward part of the rheogram with parameters of the thickness of the skin and fat folds of the upper limb; inverse, mostly unreliable, average strength (r = -0.30–0.37) connections of the dicrotic and diastolic indexes with a third of the circumferential dimensions (preferably the shin, neck and feet) and the mesomorphic component of the somatotype, and the reverse, mostly reliable, the mean strength connections of the average speed of fast and slow blood filling with the transverse lower-thoracic size, inter-comb and interswivel distances of the pelvis, and also the direct mean strength reliable (r = 0.39 – 0.50) and unreliable (r = 0.30 – 0.38) connections of indicators of tone of all arteries, large-caliber arterial tone and the tone of arteries and medium, shallow caliber with half of covering sizes and component of muscle body weight by the method of the American Institute of Nutrition.

Conclusions. 1. In practically healthy women of Podillia, the endo-mesomorphic somatotype, among correlations of cerebral blood circulation with anthropo-somatotypological parameters of the body, the highest percentage, predominantly unreliable mean strength, direct and inverse relationship was established with the derivative indices of the rheoencephalogram (7.3 and 4.1 respectively %), while the smallest – mostly reverse, false and reliable average correlation power with amplitude (respectively 3.4 and 1.0 %) rheoencephalogram indices. Among the time indicators of cerebral circulation, only direct reliable and unreliable average connections (3.4 and 2.4 % respectively) are established. 2. In analyzing the correlations of different groups of anthropo-somatotypological parameters of the body with the indices of cerebral circulation of practically healthy women of the endo-mesomorphic somatotype, it was established that the rheoencephalogram amplitude indexes have the highest relative percentages of connections with the width of distal epiphyses of long limb bones (17.5 %); time indices of the rheoencephalogram – with indicators of the thickness of skin and fat folds (12.5 %); derivatives of the rheoencephalogram – with the circumference dimensions (23.3 %), body diameters (18.8 %), cephalometric indices (14.6 %) and indicators of the component composition of body weight and thickness of skin and fat folds (by 12.5 %).
