Abstract

The authors examined students of specialized secondary education institutions of Syktyvkar during a three-year-long period. Some morphofunctional indices are worse in them than in similar cohorts in Central Russia. The unfavorable environmental situation impaired tolerance to hypoxemia, cardiac rhythm regulation, central hemodynamics, and balance of autonomic processes and affected dynamics of the physiological status of the body during social adaptation to learning.
