title: [The functional state of the organism of 8- 16 years old schoolchildren residing in Moscow and Kiev].
abstract: An assessment of the functional state of the organism in 2929 Moscow and 2043 Kiev schoolchildren aged 8 - 16 years. It was shown that in terms of main physiometric indices ofphysical development Moscow and Kiev children 8 - 16 years differ from each other There were established statistically significant difference in the force capacities: in Kiev children aged 8 - 9 years muscle strength was significantly higher than that of their peers in Moscow. The force capacities of 10 - 14 year old girls and 16 - year old boys residing in Kiev were acknowledged to be significantly lower than that of in children of the same age residing in Moscow. Respiratory capacities in Kiev schoolchildren in all age and gender groups were significantly lower than in Muscovites of the same age. It was suggested to activate preventive measures aimed at increasing the functional capacities of the cardio-respiratory system, in the first place for the children - residents of Kiev.
