title: [Mathematical analysis of myelin structure of nerves of the brachial plexus in antenatal and early postnatal ontogenesis of man].
abstract: A gradual increase of the information entropy indices and a decrease of the excess percentage is observed in the course of antenatal and early postnatal ontogenesis of man. The indices of the information entropy reach their maximum and the excess percentage reaches its minimum in children younger than 3 years. At that time the myelinated fibres have the most various diameters. In the antenatal development of man the prevalence of fine (1--4 mkm) myelinated fibres makes the structure of the humeral plexus nerves more definite while in the postnatal ontogenesis their structure is less definite since the myelinated fibres of different diameter are met with almost the same probability.
