湖南宁乡县乡村汉族体型分析

 运用Heath-Carter体型法,对湖南宁乡县乡村418例(男197例,女221例)汉族成人体型进行了分析.研究发现:① 湖南宁乡县乡村汉族男性平均体型值为3.5-5.3-1.8,属于偏内胚层的中胚层体型;女性平均体型值为4.9-4.9-1.4,属于内胚层中胚层均衡体型.② 男性以30岁为体型分界点,30岁前男性肌肉较发达而体脂相对菲薄,30岁后随年龄增长皮下脂肪积累量增加但体型变化不大;女性以40岁为体型分界点,40岁前随年龄增长肌肉渐趋发达,身体线性度下降.40岁后肌肉和脂肪含量呈下降趋势但体型变化不明显.③ 湖南宁乡县乡村汉族成人体型性别间存在显著性差异.与其他群体相比,宁乡县男性平均体型与鄂温克族(SAD=0.36)和山东乡村汉族(SAD=0.37)最为接近,女性平均体型与鄂温克族(SAD=0.59)最接近.

Study on the somatotype of Han in rural areas in Ningxiang country,Hunan province

The Heath-Carter somatotyping method was used to study the somatotype of Han among 418 adults(197 males,221 females) in rural areas in Ningxiang country,Hunan province.The results showed that,① The mean somatotype values of the male and female are 3.5-5.3-1.8 and 4.9-4.9-1.4 in rural districts respectively,which represent the endomorphic mesomorph category in male and endomorph mesomorph category in female.② The age of 30 is the cutoff point of somatotype of adult males in rural.Before the age of 30,male muscles is more developed and fat content is relatively low.After the age of 30,with increasing age,accumulation of subcutaneous fat is increasing,but the somaotype does not change obviously.The age of 40 is the cutoff point of somatotype of adult females in rural.Before the age of 40,with the growth of age,muscles become more developed and linear declined in body.After the age of 40,body muscle and fat content has declined,but the somatotype does not change obviously.③ The somatotype of rural adults of Han in in Ningxiang country,Hunan province shows significant differences between genders.Compared with the other groups,the mean somatotype of males in rural area is most close to that of Ewenki(SAD=0.36) and that of Han in rural areas of Shandong(SAD=0.37).The mean somatotype of rural females was most close to that of Ewenki(SAD=0.36).
