安徽汉族成人皮褶厚度的研究

应用人体测量法对安徽滁州地区汉族694例(城市男性152例,城市女性158例,乡村男性201例,乡村女性183例)成年人进行6项皮褶(面颊、肱二头肌、肱三头肌、肩胛下、髂前上棘、小腿内侧)厚度的测量,分析了安徽汉族成人皮褶厚度值随年龄变化的特点,并与我国部分族群的皮褶厚度值进行比较。研究显示:1)安徽汉族成人皮褶发育躯干部优于四肢,背部优于腹部,面部居中,肱二头肌皮褶最薄。2)6项皮褶厚度值在性别间存在显著性差异。同年龄组比较,女性皮褶厚度值均高于男性。3)6项皮褶厚度多与年龄呈正相关。4)城乡比较,城市女性皮褶发育明显低于乡村女性,而城市男性皮褶发育多优于乡村男性。安徽汉族男、女性皮褶厚度具有蒙古人种北亚类型族群特点。

A Study of Skinfold Thickness in Han Adults from Anhui

Skinfold thickness of face, biceps, triceps, subscapular, suprailiac and the calf of 694 Han adults (152 urban males, 158 urban females, 201 rural males, 183 rural females) from Chuzhou County, Anhui Province were recorded and compared to other ethnic groups in China. This work showed the following results. Skinfold thickness on the trunk was thicker than on the limbs. Back skinfold thickness was thicker than on the abdomen. Facial skinfold thickness was lay in the middle of the measurements, whereas bicep skinfold thickness was the thinnest. Six skinfold thicknesses showed the most significant differences between the sexes but on average, females were thicker than males in the same age group. The values of these six skinfold thicknesses had a positive correlation with age. Generally, urban females were thinner than rural females, but urban males were thicker than rural males. In conclusion, skinfold thickness of males and females of Han from Anhui Province are close to the skinfold thickness traits of ethnic groups of the North Asian type of Mongoloid.
