Anthropologo-odontological investigation of Bulgarian population from Central Western Bulgaria
Anthropologo-odontological investigation of Bulgarian population from Central Western Bulgaria
The investigation covers 400 individuals, men and women from contemporary Bulgarian population from four regions of Central Western Bulgaria, namely Trudovets, Buc-hovo, Svoge and Slivnitsa, considering 15 basic odontological features, great part of them having race-diagnostic meaning. The investigation is held, according to Zubov's methodics (1968).. The percentage distribution of the odontological features is traced in order to establish the extent to which the investigated population is homogeneous or heterogeneous according to the examined odontological features. It was established that according to the odontological features the investigated population predominantly has the features of the Western odontological stem. According to some odontological features however as crowding shovel-shape of upper medial incisors it is characterized by higher concentration, out of the boundaries of the odontological stem, mentioned above. This is an indication for the presence of Eastern elements in the ethnogenesis of this population. The investigation of the contemporary Bulgarian population from different regions in Bulgaria is carried out in different branches of anthropology-somatology der-matglyphics, odontology, bloodgroup markers, etc. The population from Central Western Bulgaria is investigated in anthropological aspect with the methods of dermatoglyphics, paleoanthropology and odontology, hately when we have to answer a number of questions concerning the ethnogenesis of different human populations, the results from the odontological investigations stand out with their great value. They give us the opportunity to trace the percentage distribution of the odontological features among the different human populations from different regions of the Earth (Zoubob, 1968). The investigated odontological features have race-diagnostical and taxonomical meaning (Zoubov, 1973) and help to answer the questions, connected with the ethnogenesis of the investigated human populations.
Anthropology of 'Shopi' population in different regions of Bulgaria according to dermatoglyphic data
Anthropology of 'Shopi' population in different regions of Bulgaria according to dermatoglyphic data
Finger and palm patterns of 400 men and 400 women of "Shopi" population from different regions of Bulgaria have been studied. The investigation was done according to Cummins and Midlo's method(1961). Bimanual and sexual differences were established in the examined "Shopi" population according to some dermatoglyphic signs. It is established that the studied "Shopi" population by the dermatoglyphical signs belongs to the europoids with a weak mongoloid admixture. The dermatoglyphy is a direction of the anthropology which studies the papilars images on the fingers, hands and feet. The relief of the skin appears during the fetal development and remains unchanging. Dermatoglyphic images are genetically inherited and unique, so they can be used as genetical markers during ethnogenesis studies. This way we can find the relation between the human populations and the differences among them, as well as the rules in the distribution of the papilars images among the population of different regions and ethnic groups. (Gadžiev, 1962; Gladkova 1958, 1964, 1966; Gladkova, Tom, 1970, 1973; Gladkova, Ramazanov, 1977; Hit 1964). Research on dermatoglyphic signs in Bulgaria has been made in some regions (Karev, 1979; Minkov, Markova, 1993; Minkov, 1992). Minkov (1994) made a study of the "Shopi" population in the region of Tran and Breznik (494 persons altogether) and concludes that according the complex dermatoglyphic signs this population is part of the europeoid population with light mongoloid admixture. The presented work is a part of wider dermatiglyphic research on the contemporary "shopi" populations in different regions of the country.
Anthropology of Montenegro in the scientific work of Božina Ivanović
Anthropology of Montenegro in the scientific work of Božina Ivanović
The anthropological research of Montenegro in the scientific work of Božina Ivanović includes historical and biophysical anthropology. In the field of historical anthropology, several larger units were examined. These units are traces of human life in Montenegro, their anthropological identification and the anthropological characteristics of contemporary Montenegrin populations. In the field of biophysical anthropology, the growth and development of Montenegrin children and youth and the ontogenetic development and anthropological characteristics of Montenegrin youth were examined.
Anthropology-dermatoglyphical characterization of Bulgarian population from some regions of western Thrace
Anthropology-dermatoglyphical characterization of Bulgarian population from some regions of western Thrace
Palm and finger prints of 100 men and 100 women from the region of Pavel Banja and 100 men and 100 women from Maglish were studied. Four groups with total number of 400 individuals of both sexes or 800 dermatoglyphical prints were investigated, according to a complex of dermatoglyphical traits. The diagnostic analysis of the dermatoglyphic data was done according to Cummins and Midlo's method (1961). In order to be established significant or insignificant differences between the studied groups, the received data were treated by the method of t-criterion according to formula of Veber (1961). It was established a bimanual asymmetry in the studied population according to some dermatoglyphic traits in both sexes. It was found out a sexual dimorphism by some traits as well like carpal triradii, DL10 in the studied population. On the basis of race - diagnostic analysis done a conclusion that the explored population has European characteristic with a weak 'eastern' admixture. Key words: dermatoglyphics, sexual and bimanual differences, Bulgarian populations comparison, pattern intensity. Dermatoglyphical traits are genetically determined and are used in resolving of many questions of etnogenetical character in anthropological investigations of populations from Different parts of the world (Luna, Pons 1987, Gladkova, 1961, Gladkova, Tot, 1985, Gladkova, Hit, 1983). At present were earring out different investigations in dermatoglyphical aspect of Bulgarian population from different regions of Bulgaria. The present dermatoglyphical investigation of Bulgarian population from some regions of Western Thrace has for purpose to be done fuller dermatoglyphical characteristic of these regions on the finger prints and by the palm patterns of the hands. On the basis of received dermatoglyphical data will be enriched anthropological picture about the origin of the investigated population of the pointed out regions.
Anthropometric characteristics and motor abilities of pupils
Anthropometric characteristics and motor abilities of pupils
A program of physical education was carried out on the sample of 98 pupils at the age of 11 years. The effects of the program were analyzed from the aspect of anthropometric characteristics and motor abilities. The system of variables consisted of 6 variables of anthropometric characteristics and 7 tests for evaluation of motor abilities. Differences between initial and final states were analyzed by multivariant analysis of variance, as well as by discriminative analysis, whereas the qualitative changes were analyzed by factorial analysis. Results were presented in tables and graphs.
Anthropometric characteristics condition analysis for female secondary-school pupils in Sombor
Anthropometric characteristics condition analysis for female secondary-school pupils in Sombor
Anthropometric examination of youth enables an objective research of this population body characteristics and it gives an insight into their variables. Our aim was to establish body height, body mass, medium scope of a rib cage, shoulder width, pelvic width and lower extremity length as well as their variables with female pupils of the Secondary Medical School in Sombor. We examined 578 female pupils from 15 to 18 years old and we got the following results: body height varies from 165,57 cm (at the age of 15) to 166,06 cm (at the age of 18). Body mass reaches its maximum value at the age of 16 (59,08 kg). This measure varies significantly in all age groups but differences among variables are the highest at the age of 18. Average values of shoulder and pelvic width continually grow with age. Lower extremity value also has a tendency to grow with age and with 18 year old pupils it amounts to 95,62 cm. Medium scope of a rib cage is rather narrow with a tendency of growth and at the age of 18 it is 82,02 cm. There exist statistically significant differences among age groups for the following characteristics: leg length, shoulder width and pelvic width. The analysis of those differences have shown that they are the biggest with pelvic width and the smallest with scope of a rib cage. Female secondary - school pupils in Sombor are tall and thin.

Anthropometric characteristics of functional abilities of seventeen-year-old football players
The sample of 40 seventeen-year old football players (+- 6 months) was subjected to anthropometric measurement consisting of 11 anthropometric characteristics (body height, body mass, mean circumference of chest circumference of upper arm, circumference of lower arm, circumference of upper leg, circumference of lower leg, skinfold of upper arm, skinfold of back, skinfold of stomach and amount of fat tissue %). In addition ftmctional abilities were also tested by means of 10 basic parameters, i.e. heartbeat frequency, blood pressure and 6 nindicators derived from the Conconi test. Anthropometric measurements were carried out according to the method of the International biological program, whereas the functional abilities were tested by Conconi test. Results were statistically processed and presented in the relevant tables which were discussed in the text.
Anthropometric characteristics of upper arm in adolescents of Vojvodina
Anthropometric characteristics of upper arm in adolescents of Vojvodina
The anthropometric characteristics of upper arm and triceps skinfold are used for the assessment of body fat and muscle area quantity, but can also be valuable for determination of nutritional status of children and adolescents. The aim of the paper is to determine the body status of adolescents in Vojvodina, on the basis of the upper arm circumference relaxed, the upper arm circumference contracted and the triceps skinfold. In a transversal anthropological investigation, conducted in accordance with IBР instructions the total of 532 males and 599 females from 15 to 17 years of age were investigated in Novi Sad in 2002 and 2003, Zrenjanin 2002 and Sremska Mitrovica 2003. Significantly higher means of the upper arm circumference relaxed and contracted, as well as the muscle area have been recorded in males, while in females, the means of triceps skinfold and fat mass are greater (p<0.01). The differences have also been observed in relation to the location of the investigation. The greatest averages have been recorded in Novi Sad males aged 15 and Zrenjanin males aged 16-17, with the exception of the upper arm circumference contracted in both of the ages and the muscle area for the age of 17. The lowest values are recorded in the males of Sremska Mitrovica, excluding the upper arm circumference contracted and muscle area of 15-year-old subjects. As for the females, the subjects of all ages in Zrenjanin are characterized with the greatest averages, except for the muscle area at the age of 15 and 16. The lowest values are found in the females from Srem, with the exception of the age of 16.
Anthropometric characteristics of upper arm in eighteen-year old subjects in Vojvodina
Anthropometric characteristics of upper arm in eighteen-year old subjects in Vojvodina
Anthropometric characteristics of the upper arm are used for estimating musculature development. In an indirect way, they show well-nourishment and a portion of muscle and fat tissue. The aim of the paper was to determine the body status of eighteen-year -old subjects in Vojvodina, using the upper arm circumference relaxed, the upper arm circumference contracted and triceps skinfold. Following IBP, a transversal anthro-pometric investigation was conducted in 2002, 2003 and 2004 in regional and administrative centers of Vojvodina: Novi Sad, Subotica, Sombor, Zrenjanin, Vršac and Sremska Mitrovica. The investigation included 307 males and 372 females. The higher average of upper arm circumference relaxed and contracted and muscle area has been recorded in males, while in females, the average of triceps and arm fat area has appeared higher. According to the analysed characteristics, there has been a variation among the subjects living in different places. The highest average of upper arm circumference relaxed (29.83 cm), triceps skinfold (12.33 mm) and arm fat area has been recorded in males living in Zrenjanin, while the highest average of upper arm circumference contracted (31.87 cm) and muscle area, has been recorded in males coming from Vršac. As for females, the highest average of upper arm circumference relaxed (26.51cm) and contracted (27.37cm), as well as muscle area, has been recorded in subjects from Subotica, while the females from Zrenjanin have shown the highest average of triceps (19.71mm) and arm fat area. The males and females in Sremska Mitrovica have shown the lowest average of the investigated traits of upper arm, muscle and fat area.

Anthropometrical characteristics of newborn children in Podgorica, during the year 2004
Numer of liveborn children was 2555 at Clinic for Gynecology and Obstetrics of Clinical Centre of Montenegro, Podgorica during year 2004. from whom were 1318 (51,59%) boys and 1237 (48.41%) girls. Average neonatal weight of newborn ware 3442.13 g. baby male weight were 3508.89 g and female 3370.99 g. Recumbent length of boys were 54,15 cm and girls 53,52 cm. Kids with low birth weight (4.74 %) within live born children were frequently born from mothers younger than 20 and older than 40 years and in gemini pregnancies and with firstborn and stillborn children. Acceleration from 200g and about 3cm in relation to children born in 1974 is noticeable, in other words 1cm and 70g per decade.
Anthropometrical features and morbidity at preschool children of Roma population
Anthropometrical features and morbidity at preschool children of Roma population
They are used to poor life, but they live with music and joy which is always expressed on their faces. They are population with heut native century, region, national clothing and official language. They exist for over ten centuries. They habituate in many countries. In Europe mostly on Balkan peninsula. There are more then 700. 000 inhabitance of Romas in my country. The aim of our work is to show the importance of anthropometrical features to morbidity of Roma children. The details arc taken out of health forms of Roma children born in a period of time between 1996 and 2000. It has been noticed that Roma children at birth have less weight and length than our children. Their weight and length are still less than our children when they are two and your.
Anthropomotorical importance of SCG army paratroopers muscle strength during para-invading flight
Anthropomotorical importance of SCG army paratroopers muscle strength during para-invading flight
Muscle strength in physics sense represents work performed in the time unit, respectively kinesiologycal, maximal contraction of muscles under maximal loading. Research goal was to examine degree of fall of muscle strength of main muscle groups of SCG Army paratroopers during fly across by "Wing" parachute from altitude of 5000 m, to find out of measures to the reduction of muscle strength. Social enquiry sample has included 40дпа1е trained invading paratroopers of SCG Army. Concerned variables were muscle strength of the mm. flexores antebrachii, mm. adductores femoris, mm. adductores brachii and mm. flexores cruris, before and after parachute jump. Methodologically dyna-mometry in W was used. Para-invading flight using "Wing" and its duration of about 20 min. led to a highly significant falloff muscle strength of mm. flexores antebrachii and mm. adductores femoris.
