Title: [The characteristics of morphofunctional status of rural schoolchildren]. Author: Matveeva NA, Nazarova LV, Chekalova NG, Ashina MV, Maksimenko EO, Shaposhnikova MV. Journal: Gig Sanit; 2011; (4):62-4. PubMed ID: 21901886.

There were significant morphofunctional differences between the urban and rural schoolchildren at the present stage of a secular trend, which determines the necessity of developing the physical development standards for rural children and adolescents in order to correctly interpret the data on their health status.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
