INTRA- AND INTER-GROUP ASPECTS

Biological age assessment is a commonly used method for investigation of ageing processes in contemporary
populations. <...> In our study, we have used the method suggested by Gorelkin A.G. and Pinkhasov
B.B. (2008) based on parameters of the stature, with the help of which, using the multiple regression equation,
individual determination of the biological age and ageing rates in men and women can be performed. <...> Moscow is a megalopolis with population
density maximal for Russia (more than 11.5 mln people). <...> Tiraspol
is a capital of Trans-Dniester Moldavian Republic (in the south-east of Europe) with the population about
156,000 people. <...> When biological age parameters (BA) were compared with the calendar age (CA), groups
with slowed (BA < CA – 7 years), medium (BA = CA 7) and accelerated (BA > CA + 7) ageing rates have
been detected in the examined subjects. <...> In women and men with the slowed ageing rates, lower values
of body mass index (BMI), decreased amount of total body mass and higher level of specifi c metabolism
(kcal/m) have been seen. <...> Fat accumulation in the area of hips is more characteristic for women (based
on the ratio of waist/hips circumferences), and for men – on the trunk. <...> All long-livers (36 women) appeared
in the group with slowed ageing rates in accordance with their stature and based on biological age. <...> In the
group with accelerated ageing rates, disharmonic variants of fat topography have been observed: for women
– android, for men – gynoid. <...> Regional differences in the distribution of prevalence of different versions of
ageing rates have been revealed: in Moscow, a slowed variant of development of involution age-specifi c
changes is the most common (both in men and women). <...> Key words: stature, body composition, biological age, ageing rates, long-livers
