[The adaptation as a health index]

Area of Science:

• Public Health
• Biomedical Informatics
• Human Physiology

Background:

• Assessing human health indices is a significant challenge in Russian public health.
• Existing methods for evaluating adaptability, a crucial health indicator, require enhancement.
• Individual and populational health assessment necessitates reliable and informative methods.

Purpose of the Study:

• To propose and evaluate the STAT (Hem variant) computer program for assessing body adaptability.
• To explore new approaches for determining adaptability in schoolchildren.
• To link leukogram data with adaptability assessment for improved health monitoring.

Main Methods:

• Utilized a computer program based on a cyclic adaptive reaction change model (STAT, Hem variant).
• Focused on analyzing leukogram (white blood cell count) data from schoolchildren.
• Developed novel approaches for quantifying adaptability based on physiological markers.

Main Results:

• The STAT (Hem variant) program demonstrated potential for assessing body adaptability.
• Leukogram analysis provided a basis for developing new adaptability assessment methods in children.
• The study established a link between specific blood markers and adaptive capacity.

Conclusions:

• The STAT (Hem variant) computer program is a promising tool for assessing body adaptability.
• Leukogram-based methods offer a viable approach for determining adaptability in schoolchildren.
• This research contributes to improving methods for monitoring individual and populational health.
