Physical development of school children in the Volgograd educational system

摘要

The physical development of schoolchildren living in different man-made load areas of Volgograd, a large industrial town and going to different educational establishments was studied and evaluated. There were more children with retarded biological development and morphofunctional abnormalities in the high man-made loaded areas. There were also differences in the physical development of pupils from different types of educational establishments: among the pupils of general educational schools there were more children with retarded biological development and morphofunctional abnormalities. These differences are greater in poor ecological areas.
