Age-related changes in the hair follicle and hair shaft in women in the parietal region

Introduction. Medical trichology is a promising and modern direction of cosmetology, engaged in the study of the scalp and hair, both in the state of health and various diseases. However, with all the variety of various scientific publications, there are very few works devoted to the study of morphological changes in normal physiological aging of a person.Aim. To reveal the dynamics of morphological changes in the hair bulb and hair shaft in women in the parietal region to elderly age.Materials and methods. The work is based on the results of microscopic examination of 80 women, the study sample consisted of conditionally healthy individuals. The examined women were divided into three groups depending on their age. The first group included 27 women of the first period of mature age (26.9 ± 0.70 years). The second group consisted of 30 women of the second period of mature age (47.1 ± 1.20 years). The third group was formed by 23 women of old age (62.1 ± 1.09 years). Hair sampling was performed in the parietal region of the head by combing out the hair that had already fallen out (without pulling it out of the skin!). The width of the hair bulb and hair shaft were measured. The percentage of bulbs containing an internal root sheath to the total number of bulbs was calculated.Results and discussion. With age, a decrease in the number of hair follicles with internal root sheath (p < 0.01) along with a tendency to decrease the width of the hair follicle and hair shaft (p > 0.05) was noted in women in the parietal region.Conclusions. The results of this study add to the information available in the scientific literature about age-related changes occurring in the hair bulb and hair shaft in women by old age. The data obtained will be useful for trichologists in medical practice to create clinical recommendations for the early prevention of age-related alopecia areata.

A model of the effectiveness of swimming physical culture and health classes with women of the first period of mature age

The use of the modeling method in the system of physical education of various population groups is a reserve for increasing the effectiveness of physical education classes. It has been proven that adaptive reactions to training classes differ in individuals of different somatotypes. Models that demonstrate the peculiarities of adaptation of individuals of different somatotypes to physical culture and health activities will contribute to increasing their effectiveness, as they will allow choosing the load in accordance with the morpho- functional characteristics. The efficiency model was developed on the basis of experimental data. Three times a week, the subjects attended swimming classes. Peculiarities of adaptation in women of different somatotypes were studied according to the dynamics of indicators of physical and functional preparedness, indicators of physical development and functional indicators of the cardiovascular system. It was established that swimming training caused an increase in all indicators of functional fitness (power and capacity of the body's anaerobic productivity, threshold of anaerobic metabolism, maximum oxygen consumption), a decrease in body weight, body mass index, and visceral fat content. Among women of different somatotypes, more significant adaptive changes occurred in representatives of the endomorphic somatotype. The effectiveness model summarizes information about the specifics of the influence of swimming classes on physical development, physical and functional fitness of women and demonstrates the specifics of adaptive reactions in representatives of different somatotypes.

Conceptual model of physical culture and health classes by running with women of the first period of mature age

In the scientific literature, conceptual models of physical culture and health classes in various directions of motor activity are described. There are data that indicate that in women of different morphological types, adaptive changes to different types of motor activity are not the same. In addition, it was established that the level of development of indicators of physical and functional fitness in women of different morphological types differs significantly. Therefore, there is a need to supplement the conceptual models of physical culture and health classes with the provision that morpho-functional features should be taken into account. The following methods were used to solve the tasks: theoretical analysis, generalization of data from scientific and methodological literature and experimental data, synthesis, modeling. On the basis of the analysis of the results of experimental studies, the provisions on the need to differentiate the level of indicators of physical and functional fitness in women in the first period of mature age, depending on their somatotype, have been determined. Provisions on a differentiated approach to representatives of different somatotypes when programming physical culture and health classes by running have been determined. Incorporating into the concept of recreational running classes a provision on a differentiated approach to programming classes for women of the first period of mature age of various somatotypes will ensure the maximum health-improving effect, since the peculiarities of their adaptation to such loads will be taken into account.

The main provisions of the concept of physical culture and health classes in aquafitness with women of the first period of mature age

It has been proven that individuals of different somatotypes differ in the level of development of indicators of functional fitness. Significant differences in adaptive reactions of the body in individuals of different somatotypes to physical exertion were revealed. In our opinion, taking into account morphological features when conducting and planning physical culture and health classes is a reserve for increasing their effectiveness. The development of conceptual models of physical culture and health classes is designed to combine key theoretical and methodological provisions that will be used when programming classes. The following methods were used to develop a conceptual model of physical culture and health classes with aquafitness: theoretical analysis, synthesis and generalization of data from scientific and methodological literature, modeling. The development of the conceptual model was carried out by combining key theoretical provisions, generated by leading scientists with the data of scientific and methodological literature and the results of their own experimental research. These provisions are systematized and combined into a conceptual model, which is inherently a system of views on theoretical and methodological foundations which are intended to provide the maximum wellness effect from their use. The conceptual model proposed by us is intended to underlie training programs, the ultimate goal of which is to increase adaptive mechanisms in women of the first period of mature age.

X-ray morphometric analysis of the position of the teeth relative to the occlusal plane in persons with physiological occlusion of the dentition

According to the results of X-ray studies of 74 patients of youthful and first period of mature age with physiological occlusion, the boundaries of the variability of the inclination angles of premolars and molars to the occlusal plane were determined. Patients, taking into account the size of the interincisal angle of antagonizing medial incisors, were divided into three groups with protrusion (n=23), mesotrusion (n=33) and retrusion (n=18) types of dental arches. It was established that in patients of the first group in the upper jaw, the inclination angles of the first premolars (92.34±3.16°), second premolars (95.57±3.03°), first molars (91.31±2.56° ), second molars (83.52±2.45°) to the occlusal plane is statistically significantly higher than similar dimensional parameters (87.95±2.17°, 85.06±2.87°, 81.49±2.06°, 76.47±2.49°, p≤0.05) in patients of the third group. In people of the second group on the upper jaw, the indicators of the angles of inclination of the first premolars (90.23±2.65°), second premolars (88.36±2.36°), first molars (84.02±2.61°), second molars (78.64±2.17°) to the occlusal plane occupy an intermediate position between the angular values of the patients of the first and third groups. In patients of the first group in the lower jaw, the dimensions of the inclination angles of the first premolars (91.76±1.78°), second premolars (96.73±2.06°), first molars (100.45±3.18°), second molars (104.51±3.35°) to the occlusal plane is statistically significantly less than similar dimensional values (99.89±3.01°, 104.32±3.14°, 107.29±3.09°, 111, 72±2.08°, p≤0.05) of patients of the third group. In people of the second group on the lower jaw, the parameters of the inclination angles of the first premolars (94.49±3.05°), second premolars (101.52±2.87°), first molars (104.96±3.08°), second molars (109.21±2.75°) to the occlusal plane occupy a middle position between the angular values of the patients of the first and third groups. The proposed method for analyzing the angles of inclination to the occlusal plane is of scientific and applied significance in the formation of an information electronic database for standardization and certification of X-ray morphometric studies, as well as an adequate interpretation of the data of X-ray studies of the maxillofacial region in normal and under various pathological conditions.

Indicators of the cardiovascular system of women 25-35 years age of different somatotypes under the influence of health-improving running classes

Health-improving running loads are an effective means of improving the functions of the cardiovascular system. The study of the adaptive reactions of the cardiovascular system in women of different somatotypes under the influence of health- improving running classes allows to reveal the dynamics of the main indicators that determine the physical health of a person and to establish their somatotypological features. 80 women in the the first period of mature age (25-35 years old), who had not played sports before, took part in the study. Training sessions according to the health-improving running program were held 3 times a week. The basis of the program was running loads in the aerobic mode of energy supply, which were performed in a uniform continuous method. Dosing of running loads was carried out according to energy consumption. Heart rate was measured in a state of relative muscle rest. Blood pressure after dosed loads of different power was measured during the PWC170 test. In women aged 25-35, exercise to the health-improving running program caused a 2.2% decrease in heart rate at rest and a 2.1% decrease in systolic blood pressure after a dosed cycle ergometric exercise with a power of 1 W·kg. Among women of different somatotypes, a probable decrease in heart rate was found in representatives of the endomorphic somatotype. It has been established that health-improving running classes causes positive changes in the function of the cardiovascular system in women aged 25-35. Women of different somatotypes have different adaptive reactions of the cardiovascular system to health-improving running classes. Statistically confirmed changes were found only in representatives of the endomorphic somatotype.

COMPARATIVE MORPHOLOGICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF THE HUMAN BRAINSTEM IN THE FIRST PERIOD OF MATURE AND OLD AGE

The knowledge of brain aging patterns, in particular its trunk, is necessary for understanding age-related compensatory resources of the body's nervous tissue. Objective: to determine the human brain stem volume in the first period of mature age and in old age using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and to compare these parameters in age-related aspect. Material and methods: we analyzed the results of brainstem morphometric study of 94 people (48 men and 46 women) using MRI, who underwent brain examination in the Department of Radiation Diagnostics in the period 2019-2021. Criteria for inclusion of subjects in the study: the first period of mature age or old age of the subject; craniotype - mesocranial; history without diseases and injuries of both central and peripheral nervous system organs, exclusion of drug and alcohol addiction; absence of signs of pathology of brain departments detected during the study. Results: MRI of the brain stem revealed a statistically significant decrease of its volume indices both in men and in women by senile age p < 0,01). There was revealed a tendency for predominance of brain stem volume indices in men both in the first period and old age in comparison with women without statistically reliable difference (p > 0,05). The obtained results will serve as a basis for understanding age-related anatomical changes of the brain stem and allow more accurate diagnostics of patients in the conditions of personalized medicine.

Parameters of the corpus callosum and thalamuses in mesocephalic women of the second period of mature age according to MRI data

Introduction. One of the most important parts of the brain from a morphofunctional point of view is the corpus callosum and the thalamus. Today, the problem of the lack of clear morphometric characteristics of these parts of the brain in mesocephalic women of the second period of mature age is obvious.The objective of the study was to establish the morphometric characteristics of the corpus callosum and thalamuses in mesocephalic women of the second period of mature age using the method of magnetic resonance imaging.Methods and materials. The results of morphometric examination of the corpus callosum and thalamuses of 37 women aged 36 to 54 years using magnetic resonance imaging were analyzed. We determined the length and height of the corpus callosum, knee thickness, cushion thickness, its depth (anterior, upper and posterior). The transverse, longitudinal, and vertical dimensions of the thalamuses were determined.Results. The morphometric characteristics of the corpus callosum is characterized by the predominance of the knee thickness over the thickness of the cushion (p<0.01). The parameter of the posterior depth of the corpus callosum prevails over the parameters of the upper and anterior depths of its occurrence (p<0.01). When comparing the parameters of the upper depth and the anterior depth of the corpus callosum, there is a tendency for the upper depth indicator to prevail (p>0.05). The regularity of the morphometric characteristics of the thalamuses is the tendency to the predominance of all parameters in the left hemisphere (p>0.05).Conclusions. The results of the comparative analysis of the morphological characteristics of the corpus callosum in the elderly and senile age supplement the knowledge of age-related anatomy and will be useful in the clinical practice of doctors of radiation diagnostics and magnetic resonance imaging offices.

Взаємозв’язок гіпотиреозу та андрогенного дефіциту у чоловіків в різні періоди зрілого віку

Актуальність. Поєднання патології щитоподібної залози (ЩЗ) з віковим андрогенним дефіцитом у чоловіків сприяє зниженню сексуальної і репродуктивної функцій, погіршенню якості життя. Мета дослідження — виявити особливості взаємозв’язків між зниженою функцією ЩЗ та андрогенним дефіцитом у чоловіків в першому і другому періодах зрілого віку. Матеріали та методи. Під спостереженням перебувало 60 чоловіків із первинним гіпотиреозом віком від 21 до 60 років. Набір чоловіків для обстеження проводили в процесі амбулаторного прийому та стаціонарного лікування в ендокринологічному відділенні Університетської лікарні м. Тернополя. Результати. У чоловіків першого періоду зрілого віку частота гіпогонадизму становила 22,2 %, у тому числі у чоловіків без гіпотиреозу — 8 %, а з гіпотиреозом — 40 %. У чоловіків з гіпотиреозом частота андрогенного дефіциту і його клінічних ознак була в 5 разів вище, ніж у чоловіків без гіпотиреозу. Наявність гіпотиреозу у чоловіків другого періоду зрілого віку в 70 % випадків асоційована з андрогенним дефіцитом, але порівняно з чоловіками першого періоду зрілого віку в другому періоді більшою мірою виражені клінічні ознаки андрогенного дефіциту. Висновки. Наявність гіпотиреозу стирає вікові відмінності у вмісті загального і вільного тестостерону в крові чоловіків; у чоловіків першого періоду зрілого віку найбільш виражений негативний вплив на рівень тестостерону справляє рівень тиреотропного гормона.

Comparative characteristics of human thalamus parameters in the first period of mature age and in senile age in mesocephals

The problem of demographic aging intensity growth is increasingly raised in the scientific community. Patients belonging to the senile age group have a number of reasons that reduce their quality of life, as well as reduce the effectiveness of treatment and rehabilitation. The most important information node involved in providing functions such as an integrative role in cognition, starting from learning and memory and ending with flexible adaptation is the structure of the intermediate brain – the thalamus. The aim of the study was to conduct a comparative analysis of agerelated morphometric characteristics of human thalamuses in the first period of adulthood and in old age according to magnetic resonance imaging. Material and methods. The results of morphometric study of the thalamuses of 83 people were analyzed, which were divided into two groups based on their age. Group I included 46 people of the first period of Mature age, group II included 37 people of senile age. All patients had a history of diseases and injuries of the Central/peripheral nervous system, alcohol and drug addiction, and were right-handed. The transverse, longitudinal, and vertical parameters of the thalamuses in both hemispheres of the brain were determined. Results. It was found that the parameters of the thalamus prevail in the first period of adulthood in both men and women (p<0.01). At the same time, there was no statistically significant difference between the morphometric parameters of the thalamuses in the hemispheres, but there was a tendency to a predominance of linear dimensions in the left thalamus (p>0.05). We found a tendency to slightly exceed the indicators of the thalamus in men in comparison with the indicators established in women (p>0.05). Conclusion. The results obtained can serve as starting points as the equivalent of the anatomical age norm of the human thalamus in the first period of adulthood and senile age, which in the future will allow for a personalized approach in medical practice.

Functional preparedness of women of the first period of mature age under the influence of aquafitness training

Purpose: to identify the features of the impact of aquafitness training on aerobic and anaerobic productivity of women 25-35 years.
 Material and methods: The study involved women aged 25-35 in the number of 41 people. For 24 weeks, the subjects were training in an aquafitness program. Training sessions of aquafitness were aerobic and strength. Anaerobic alactate productivity of the organism was determined by the Wingate anaerobic test WAnT 10. Anaerobic lactate productivity of the organism was determined by the Wingate anaerobic test WAnT 30 and bicycle ergometric test by the method of A. Shogy, G. Cherebetin. The threshold of anaerobic metabolism was determined by bicycle ergometric test F. Conconi et al. in the modification of Yu.M. Furman. The aerobic productivity of the organism was investigated according to the Vo2 max index determined by the method of V.L. Karpman. Absolute and relative indicators were determined for all tests.
 Results: Aquafitness is an effective means of correcting the indicators of functional preparedness. The combination of strength and aerobic training in the aquafitness program provides an increase in aerobic productivity, anaerobic lactatic productivity and anaerobic alactatic productivity. Under the influence of training according to the aquafitness program, an increase in all indicators of functional preparedness was revealed. The power of anaerobic alactate productivity of the organism determined by the relative indicator WAnT 10 increased with a statistically significant difference on the level (t = 5.07; p = 0.000). The power of anaerobic lactate productivity of the organism determined by the relative indicator WAnT 30 increased with a statistically significant difference on the level (t=4,68; p=0,000). The power of aerobic productivity of the organism determined by the relative indicator VO2 max increased with a statistically significant difference on the level (t=2,77; p=0,007).
 Conclusions: Aquafitness is an effective means of correcting the indicators of functional preparedness. The combination of strength and aerobic training in the aquafitness program provides an increase in aerobic productivity, anaerobic lactatic productivity and anaerobic alactatic productivity.

Priority motivations of women of the first period of mature age in the process of engaging in health-improving motor activity (on the example of bellydance-fitness)

The issue of the necessity of accounting for the motivational priorities of the women aged 21-35 years in the process of the physical culture and health activities and their significance for the design of the physical culture and health relatedsessions has been addressed in the article. The first period of mature age (21-35 years) of the women is characterized by the beginning of the involutionary processes in the body and a decrease in the motor abilities of the women, and the solution to this problem is possible by optimizing their motor activity. Bellydance-fitness classes today are one of the most important types of the physical activity for the women. They have a positive effect on the psycho-emotional state of women and their physical preparedness. We conducted a survey of women aged 21-35 who are engaged in bellydance-fitness in clubs and studios in Lviv and Ivano-Frankivsk. We compared the training motives of the women of different age groups (21-25 years old, 26-30 years old, 31-35 years old) and found out how the motivation of the women changes during the first period of adulthood. We found that the priority motives of their classes are mastering of the aesthetic dance movements, improving of the figure parameters and improving of the improving well-being and health.

Correlation of maximum oxygen consumption with component composition of the body, body mass of men with different somatotypes aged 25-35

Background and Study Aim: The somatotype determines not only physical development, but also the functional capabilities of the organism. Investigation of the correlation relations between the component of body and VO2 max will reveal the influence of each of the components on the aerobic capacity of men in the first period of mature age. The aim of the work – to detect the peculiarities of manifestation of maximum oxygen consumption of men with different somatotypes and to investigate the relationship with the component composition of the body.
 Material and Methods: The study involved 150 men aged 25-35 years. The somatotype was determined by the Heath-Carter method. The component composition of the body was determined by the bioelectrical impedance method. The VO2 max indicator was determined, metered loads were performed on a bicycle ergometer. A correlation analysis of the absolute and relative VO2 max values with the fat and muscle components of the body was performed.
 Results. A high degree of inverse correlation between the relative VO2 max indicator with body mass in men of mesomorphic somatotype was established and a high degree of inverse correlation between the relative VO2 max indicator with body mass and BMI in men of endomorphic-mesomorphic somatotype.
 Conclusions: For representatives of the mesomorphic and endomorphic-mesomorphic somatotype, a larger body mass and a high degree of correlation between body mass and relative VO2 max indicator are characteristic. For representatives of the ectomorphic and balanced somatotype, a smaller body mass and a lower degree of correlation between body mass and relative VO2 max indicator max are characteristic.

Correction of indicators of physical condition of women of the second period of mature age with excess body weight in the course of occupations by improving fitness

The aim was to assess the impact of the program of individual preventive and health-enhancing exercise classes on the improvement of physical condition in middle-aged overweight women. Material and methods: theoretical analysis of special scientific and methodological literature; anthropometric, physiological, and pedagogical methods; and the methods of mathematical statistics. The study involved 62 middle-aged women with an average age of 38.5 years. The duration of the transformative pedagogical experiment was nine months. Results. In women, there were statistically significant (p <0.05; p <0.01) improvements in blood pressure, lung vital capacity, and heart rate recovery after dynamic exercise, which characterize the work of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. An increase in the mean group value of maximum oxygen consumption by 10.8% indicated an increase in the level of physical performance in the women. After the nine-month program, there were significant changes (p <0.05; p <0.01) in the values of the indicators that characterize the level of physical health of middle-aged women. The quantitative score of the participants of the experiment improved by 40.3% (p <0.001) and corresponded to the “average level” according to the gradation scale of physical health. At the end of the pedagogical experiment, significant changes were observed (p <0.05; p <0.01) in the mean group results of exercise tests compared to the beginning of the experiment. In women, there were improvements under the influence of health-enhancing exercises in static balance (by 62.7% and 44.2%), muscle endurance (by 38.7%), flexibility (by 24.1%), strength (by 21.6%), and endurance (by 6.0%). Conclusions. Assessment of the proposed program showed its positive effects and effectiveness. The results of the study can be useful for fitness professionals when designing individual health-enhancing fitness programs focused on improving physical condition in middle-aged overweight women.

The effect of bellydance fitness on the functionality of the torso muscles of women of the first period of adulthood

The first period of mature age (21-35 years) of women is characterized by the beginning of involutionary processes in the body and a decrease in the motor abilities of women, and the solution to this problem is possible by optimizing their motor activity. An important factor in training for mature women is to ensure a positive effect on the functional state of the muscles of the torso. Classes in dance types of health-improving motor activity (in particular, bellydance- fitness) have a positive effect on the psycho-emotional state of women and the state of their musculoskeletal system. The work is devoted to the research of the influence of the practice of bellydance-fitness (fitness with movements of oriental dance) on the functional state of the trunk muscles of women of the first period of mature age. Indicators of physical qualities such as static and dynamic strength endurance of torso muscles; spinal mobility in women engaged in bellydance-fitness were studied. Indicators of physical preparedness of women with less than 4 months of training and women with 2-3 years of training were compared. It was a positive effect of bellydance-fitness on the level of functional state of the torso muscles of women. Women with 2-3 years of training are characterized by a higher level of strength of the muscles of the torso and mobility of the spine than women with less than 4 months of training. The results of the research give grounds to recommend the use of bellydance-fitness as a means of improving the functional state of the torso muscles of women.

Comparative characteristics of the morphometric parameters of the abdominal part of aorta and its unpaired branches in the age and sex aspects

Computer tomograms of the abdominal part of the aorta and its unpaired branches of adults belonging to three age groups are analyzed: the first, the second mature, and the elderly. It has been established that individual morphometric parameters of the abdominal part of the aorta and its unpaired branches in men and women significantly change with age. It is proved that the diameter of the aorta at different levels significantly increases with age from the first mature age to the elderly by an average of 5 mm. In addition, in men, the length of the abdominal aorta, celiac trunk and main trunk of the superior mesenteric artery do not change with age. In women, the length of the celiac trunk increases with age by 5,9 mm, the length of the main trunk of the superior mesenteric artery - by 17 mm. It can be assumed that this fact is due to the structural features of the connective tissue structures of the arterial wall in women, and, in particular, the elastic framework. The angle of discharge of the celiac trunk in men changes unevenly with age - in the second period of mature age, there is a statistically significant decrease on average of 12,3°, then in old age an increase of 15°. Moreover, in women, the values of this indicator vary more evenly. The angles of discharge of other vessels did not show a clear age dependence, since this parameter is largely due to the constitutional features. The aorto-mesenteric distance changes with age only in women. In old age, it is on average 4,4 mm larger than in the first period of mature age. In general, a number of morphometric parameters of the abdominal part of the aorta and its unpaired branches significantly changes with age. The findings are important for endovascular interventions.

FEATURES OF THE TOPOGRAPHY OF THE ABDOMINAL AORTA AND ITS UNPAIRED BRANCHES IN SEXUAL AND AGE ASPECTS

In the last few decades there has been a steady growth of vessels diseases, including diseases of the abdominal aorta and its unpaired branches. The aim of this study was to study the topography of the abdominal aorta and its unpaired branches in men and women belonging to different age groups. It was analyzed 266 computer tomograms of the abdominal aorta and its unpaired branches of adult men and women divided into three age groups (first and second periods of mature age and old age). It was found that for men is typical the more distal location of the studied anatomical objects relatively to the vertebral column in comparison with women. It was proved that in women of the first mature age period, as well as in men, most often the beginning of the abdominal aorta is observed at the middle of the Th12 body (35.8%), in the second period of mature age - at the middle of the Th12 body (33.3%); in the elderly - at the level of the lower edge of the body of this vertebra. The level of the aorta bifurcation in men in the first period of mature age are most often located at the level of the lower edge of the L4 body, in other age groups at mid-body L4. While in women the age-related changes of the level of the bifurcation of the aorta is not significant. It was shown that in women in all age groups the outfall of the celiac trunk is localized higher than that in men. Dynamics of age changes of the position of the outfalls of the upper and a lower mesenteric artery, in men and women varies considerably. The obtained information about sex and age characteristics of the position of the abdominal aorta and its bifurcation, the outfalls of the celiac trunk, upper and lower mesenteric arteries have not only anatomical interest but also have clinical importance in surgical interventions on the organs of gastro-splenic-pancreaticoduodenal zone.
