| Popis: | In 235 women with excess body mass from 10 to 49% the fatty layer thickness was measured using a ut-40stsp T-40CIIII ultrasonic adipometer, and the fat and muscular mass of the body was determined on the basis of Ya. Mateika's formula. The comparison of values of the excess body mass index and the content of the adipose and muscular tissue revealed its limited informative value in the assessment of a degree of adipopexis in women with primary degrees of obesity. The content of the studied components and a value of the musculoadipose index made it possible to distinguish the imbalance (in 87.2% of the cases) and balance (in 12.8% of the cases) types of obesity. In the first type an increase in the adipose tissue is accompanied by a decrease in the muscular component whereas in the second one both components are equally on the increase. |
