Five hundred women 20 to 29 years of age were evaluated 48 hr after delivery to detect the presence of chronic diseases. An overall prevalence of 14.4% was found. Circulatory, osteo muscular, connective tissue and endocrine, metabolic and immune related disorders constituted the main groups of diseases detected. Leading diagnosis were hypertension, scoliosis, gallstones and goiter. No differences were found in type of delivery when comparing healthy and chronic disease affected women. Chronic disease in younger females should be further studied in order to avoid complications, sequelae and to improve reproductive conditions in this population.

The nutrition pattern and disease incidence were studied in 9634 schoolchildren with varying body lengths. A direct correlation was established between the body length and energy value of nutrition, the content of basic food, macroelements and trace elements, vitamins A and B. Tall schoolchildren were shown to have a greater incidence of obesity, chronic tonsilitis, rheumatic fever, enuresis, abnormal posture and scoliosis. The biogeochemical provinces with endemic fluorosis and goiter were disclosed to have the increased number of children below medium height and of low height, which is accounted for by the deficient content of fluorine and iodine in the environment.
