Analysis Of Body Circumference And Skinfold Thickness Characteristics Of Liaoning Han Adults

ObjectiveTo study the circumference and skinfold thickness characteristics ofLiaoning Han adults. To investigate the differences of rural and urban.Compared with other areas of national.To assess the the health status ofLiaoning Han. Provide theoretical basis to improve the physical fitness situationand disease prevention for the Han ethnic group.MethodUsed Stratified cluster sampling method, measured12circumferences and6skinfold thickness of1458adults of Liaoning Han ethnicity(480urban adults,978rural adults), including head circumference,neck circumference,chestcircumference,chest circumference at inspiration,chest circumference atexpiration,abdominalcircumference,hip circumference,thigh circumference,calfcircumference,biceps circumference,forearm circumference,biceps contractcircumference,facial skinfold,biceps skinfold,triceps skinfold,subscapularskinfold,suprailiac skinfold,calf skinfold, and compared with the other ethnicgroups in China.ResultsLiaoning Han ethnicity adult is in a state of growth in the20～age group ofvarious body circumference values, The30～years old group maximumcircumference of the head and limbs circumference values decreased. Thevalue of girth of neck circumference and girth of chest is upward trend. Thevalue of abdominal circumference and hip circumference is downward trend.Compared between urban and rural areas, obvious differences of60~70age group. Shape analysis of male stout men squat type60%, the city or the country51%, urban women dumpy, rural women dumpy type46.6%46.3%.Clustering analysis showed that compared with other ethnic groups in China,Liaoning Han adult the value close to the northern ethnic groups. Body fat ofmen and women in urban were higher than rural, and women were higher thanmen. Different ages of the circumference and skinfold thickness values urbanchange amplitude is greater than rural, and most circumference and skinfoldthickness of urban were higher than rural area. Differences in circumferenceand skinfold thickness values between age groups mainly in the age groupbetween20to other age groups. Clustering analysis showed that, comparedwith other ethnic groups in China, Liaoning Han adult the value close tothe northern ethnic groups. Body fat of the Liaoning Han was significantly higherthan other regions and minority ethnicities.ConclusionLiaoning Han circumference values compared with the north-west andnorth nationalities were on the moderately expensive level.Compared with theother ethnicities，Liaoning Han adult men and women were relatively developedsubcutaneous fat.Liaoning Han adult body is dumpy type...
