ABSTRACT
Comprehensive medical examinations of 406 junior schoolchildren from 4 Moscow general educational schools during education and an investigation of the spread of poor factors caused by lifestyle and their influence on the functional status, autonomic homeostasis, and adaptive capacities of schoolchildren have established behavioral risk factors for abnormalities at junior school age. Multivariate analytical methods (137 variables) could ascertain the priority and behavioral risk factors in the formation of functional abnormalities in children during primary schooling: an increase in the incidence of abnormalities of the cardiovascular system by 3.5 times, the eye and its appendicular apparatus by 3.5 times, the musculoskeletal system by 4.2 times, and the nervous system by 4.8 times.
