Geographic variation in vascular mortality in Eurasia
The geographic variation patterns of vascular mortality and their major risk factors from 68 samples in Eurasia are described in this work. The goodness-of-fit tests and analysis of variance indicate significant differences in incidence of mortality from the studied diseases, as well as in risk factors among the various geographic regions in four age groups. Correlation analysis points out the two general tendencies for the majority of studied tr…
Genetics of human body size and shape
The genetic component in a mixed heritability model, including major gene, multifactorial and sibling environment transmissible components, was studied for some 20 anthropometric traits in two ethnically different samples. The first sample comprised 305 Mexican nuclear families, and the second comprised 83 Ashkenazi Jewish nuclear families living in Israel. All variables, after adjustment for age and sex, were subjected to principal-components an…
Geographic variation in vascular mortality in eurasia
This study was based on a sample of 68 populations from 42 countries of Eurasia. Most of the data were from the MONICA Project, while additional information was from the abundant literature. Mortality rates (from cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and ischaemic heart diseases, and death rate from all causes) and related to them potential risk factors (systolic and diastolic blood pressure, total serum cholesterol and body mass index) were described …
Biology of aging in an Israeli population. 2. Polymorphic blood markers and fluctuating asymmetry
The major objectives of the present study were to detect whether there are any differences in genetic blood markers distribution between the young and old Israeli population. We also investigated the question about the relationship between the genetic heterozygosity (H) and fluctuating asymmetry (FA) of an individual. The study sample consisted of 208 elderly people aged between 75 and 94 years old. Each individual was assessed for the same 18 an…
Biology of aging in an Israeli population. 1. Review of literature and morphological variation analysis
This article reports the results of a comparative morphological assessment carried out on five age segments of an Israeli population: 1. neonates, 2. early school age children (6.5-7.5 years old), 3. young adults (18-29), 4. mature adults (30-45) and 5. elderly people (75-94). The aim of the investigation was to analyze the relationship between developmental homeostasis phenomena and the aging process. Developmental homeostasis was assessed via g…
Interrelations between early child development, gestational age and birth weight
Five traits of early child development were studied in 656 infants from the day of birth till 2 years of age. The infants selected for follow-up were born at 26–42 weeks of gestational age and with a birth weight accordingly ranging from 860 to 4560g. Analysis of variance was carried out for each of the following five traits which entailed the age at which a child: 1) turned himself over (turned); 2) sat unsupported for a few seconds (sat); 3) st…
Morphological traits and common illness in newborn infants
The present study focussed on neonates morbidity in connection with the morphological traits in the individual relative to the population average and in connection with the fluctuating asymmetry (FA) in 8 bilateral traits. The sample comprised two categories of newborn infants: 1) 1088 full term children, in which body weight (W), body height (H) and head circumference (HC) were measured on the day of birth; and 2) 216 infants of various gestatio…
