Description
Summary:A total of 4350 children of indigenous and nonindigenous population of the Far North were examined by computer optical topography. They were divided into 3 groups: 500 children – the indigenous population: the Khanty, Mansi, Nenets, who live in rural areas, 450 – aborigines living in urban areas, 3400 people – the non-indigenous children (migrants). Distinctive features in the bearing form and in prevalence of vertebral deformations were revealed. The indigenous population has the expressed crosssection sizes of a trunk and good indicators of a bearing, children of migrants – a trunk with the expressed longitudinal sizes and the worst indicators of a bearing. Prevalence of a scoliosis in I group – 3,4 %, in II – 5,1 %, and in III – 9,3 %.
