The descriptive analysis, ANOVA and alternative analysis (Z-score) were used. <...> The results of analysis showed signifi cant differences in accumulation of SAT and VAT between groups of children with different nutritional status. <...> The children with normal nutritional status were characterized by non-signifi cant below average values (Z-score) for SAT, VAT-and VAT/SAT-ratio for their age and gender. <...> In contrast, the groups of children with overweight and obesity were characterized by above average values for SAT and VAT (p <0.05). <...> The values VAT/SAT-ratio is below average for age and gender. <...> Key words: subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), visceral adipose tissue (VAT), VAT/SAT-ratio, body nutritional status, adolescents, Bulgaria Contact information: Mladenova, Silviya, e-mail: silvia_mladenova@mail.bg. <...> EVALUATION OF ARM ANTHROPOMETRY AND NUTRITION IN TURKISH PRESCHOOL CHILDREN Цzdemir Ayşegьl, Sibel Цnal, Цzer Başak Koca Ankara University, Faculty of Languages, History and Geography, Department of Anthropology, Turkey Arm anthropometry – cross-sectional analyse of arm muscle area and arm fat area- has been used as a proxy of body composition in both clinical and fi eld research and proposed to be an indicator of nutritional status. <...> Anthropometric measurements of mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) and triceps skinfold were taken using standard technique and instruments, and arm muscle area (AMA) and arm fat area (AFA) were calculated. <...> The results show that age differences in AMA between ages 3 and 4 were found to be statistically signifi cant (p<0.05). <...> Thus, muscle development was clear in favour of boys and fat development - of girls. <...> Anthropometrical studies, particularly, those of arm anthropometry on preschool children in Turkey are very limited, we think that the present study will provide a contribution to this area. <...> Key words: nutrition, arm anthropometry, arm muscle area, arm fat area, preschool children, Turkey Contact information: Цzdemir Ayşegьl, e-mail: ozdemira@ankara.edu.tr, Sibel Цnal, e-mail: sibelonal@windowslive.com, Цzer Başak Koca, e-mail: bkozer@ankara.edu.tr. 19 Конгресс Европейской Антропологической Ассоциации МГУ имени М. <...> Evaluation of arm anthropometry and nutrition in Turkish preschool children! <...>
