title: [Topographic and quantitative characteristics of adipose tissue in various aborigines of Siberia (women)].
abstract: The main task of the investigation is to prove suitability of the scheme suggested for estimation of the dynamics of fat content in the organism, in order to analyse age changeability of topography and amount of the subcutaneous fat in 254 women of various race-geographic groups in Siberia and populations, belonging to different adaptive groups. Representatives of the central-east-european (Russians), north europeoid (Komi), uralian (Manci) and central-asian (Buryats) race groups have been investigated. Age groups of 18-23 and 24-55 years of age have been compared. The first group gives possibilities to estimate the fat content value in the body composition and peculiarities in distribution of the subcutaneous fat in persons at early period of maturation; the second group--to follow age alterations of certain signs. For the representatives of the first group predominance of the subcutaneous fat below the waist is specific. In Russians predominance of the subcutaneous fat in extremities in comparison with the trunk is noted in 47-50%, in Komi, Manci and Buryats--in 12-25%. In the older age group the summational skin-fold thickness of the adipose tissue changes but slightly. For the representatives of all elderly groups increase of the fat content above the waist with predominance in the trunk is specific.
