Objective To analyze body mass index (BMI) , skinfold thickness , upper arm muscular circumference and body fat content in male soldiers and to present normal reference values . Methods The body height, body mass , upper arm circumference , and skinfold thickness of 1802 male soldiers were measured. The BMI, body fat content and upper arm muscular circumference were calculated accordingly . Results Based on the reference BMI value for Chinese adults, there were 2. 9% , 8.8%, 1.2% soldiers identified as underweight , overweight and obese , respectively. The normal body fat content was recommended as 7% - 10% and the normal upper arm muscular circumference from 21. 0 cm to 26. 0 cm. Conclusion Attention should be paid to overweight and obesity in soldiers . Normal reference values recommended here for body fat content and upper arm muscular circumference can facilitate for future applications .%目的 分析我军男性军人体质指数、皮褶厚度、上臂肌围、体脂数据,提出正常参考值范围.方法 测定1802名男性军人身高、体重、上臂围以及三头肌部、肩胛下部、髂部皮褶厚度,计算体质指数、体脂和上臂肌围,采用相关统计学方法对数据进行分析.结果 按照中国健康成年人体质指数评价标准,调查对象中消瘦、超重、肥胖者分别占2.9%、8.8%和1.2%;删去消瘦、超重和肥胖者数据,推导出体脂、上臂肌围推荐正常参考值范围分别为7%~10%、21.0~26.0 mm.结论 有关部门应充分重视我军目前存在的超重和肥胖的问题;本研究得出的体脂、上臂肌围正常参考范围为进一步应用奠定了基础.
