Abstract
This study aimed at the specific performance of respiration system based on the ontogeny. Four hundred and fifty-two male residents of Magadan aged 15-74 participated in a comprehensive age-associated survey that involved 4 groups: adolescents, early adults, workable men of mature age and the elderly. The lungs volumetric and velocity characteristics were analyzed using computer spirometry. Most indicators of external respiration proved to be significantly age specific. The maximum values were observed in the early adulthood followed by a fall in men of older age groups. The revealed changes indicated lowered reserve capabilities of the respiration performance with increasing duration of residence under the North conditions and suggested reduced adaptabilities of the body owing to the chronic adverse effects of natural and climatic environmental factors.
