Короткий опис (реферат):
Using a constitutional approach to predict the onset of a disease can be key not only to
solving the problem of late-stage lifestyle modification therapy but also to understanding
the deep, seemingly incomprehensible links between organs and body structure. The
aim of the study was to establish and analyze the differences in total, longitudinal and
transverse body sizes between healthy and/or psoriatic men of different somatotypes
depending on the severity of the disease. Anthropo-somatotypological examination
was performed on Ukrainian men (aged 22 to 35 years) with psoriasis (n=100, including
32 with mild and 68 with severe). A clinical assessment of the severity and area of
psoriatic lesions was performed using the PASI index. Anthropometric data of 82
practically healthy men of the same age group was taken from the data bank of the
research center of National Pirogov Memorial Medical University, Vinnytsya. Statistical
processing of the obtained results was performed in the license package "Statistica
5.5" using non-parametric evaluation methods. In patients with mild and severe psoriasis,
men of mesomorphic and endo-mesomorphic somatotypes in comparison with healthy
men of the corresponding somatotypes, higher values of almost all total (in the endomesomorphs with severe disease), transverse (except for shoulder width) and lateral
body size (except endo-mesomorphs with severe disease) was found. In patients with
psoriasis, men of endo-mesomorphic somatotype with a mild course of the disease
found greater than in patients with a similar course men of mesomorphic somatotype,
body weight, length and surface area, height of acromial and finger anthropometric
points, and transverse middle thoracic diameters and anteroposterior middle thoracic
diameter; and in patients with psoriasis men of endo-mesomorphic somatotype with a
severe course of the disease - only greater values than in patients with a similar course
of the disease men of mesomorphic somatotype, interspinous distance. When comparing
the total, longitudinal and transverse dimensions of the body between men with psoriasis
of the corresponding somatotypes, in representatives of the mesomorphic somatotype
with a mild course of the disease found greater than with severe course, body length
values and lower - posterior middle thoracic diameter. The revealed differences in
total, longitudinal and transverse body sizes between healthy and/or patients with mild
or severe psoriasis Ukrainian men of mesomorphic and endo-mesomorphic
somatotypes provide an opportunity to increase the effectiveness of the use of body
structure and size to identify risk groups psoriasis.
