Abstract

According to the anthropological human body physique study performed by the Chinese National Natural Foundation [2-5], clustering analysis showed that the male Han Chinese urban and rural area populations in Jiangsu, Uzbeks, Russians, Kazaks, and 10 other northern ethnic groups had a UAC that was about 28 cm, which would be considered as medium dimensions. According to age and gender, the median average was Z = 0 ( Z > = ?1 and Z < =1); Z = ?1 (Z < ?1 and Z > = ? 2); Z = ?2 (Z > ?2 and Z < = ?3); Z = ?3 (Z > ?3 and Z > = ? 4); Z = 1 (Z > 1 and Z < = 2); Z = 2 (Z > 2 and Z < =3); and Z = 3 (Z > 3 and Z < =4).\n Asian children had less UAC than Caucasians [21].
