Growth and development of male children and youth in Tuzla's region after the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
A four-year aggression on Bosnia and Herzegovina was extremely unfavourable period for growth and development of children and youth. In spite of that, it is established that ontogeny of male children and youth (between 10.5-19.5 years) on the observed region is going well, and it is within the limits at the average European standards. By parallel analysis of growth of domestic and expatriate persons, it is established that the average (sum) values of almost it's all indexes are significantly bigger for domestic (object) inhabitants. However, after the end of growth, they become approximately the same. By comparison of indexes of growth and development of the tested sample and samples from 1980 (of the same population), the soft acceleration trend for majority (indexes) of parameters is established, what is mostly seen in postpuberty age. The tested persons in pre-puberty and puberty age had the same or even less average values comparing to the tested persons from 1980. This is probably a direct result of negative influence of exogenous factors (war vital conditions), which caused temporary stoppage in growth and development in that period of growth when growth is the most intensive. Despite the fact that war life conditions have negatively affected the growth and development of the subjects studied, it has been found that the development of male children and youth, meaning the growth of different parameters on the studied area were in synchrony.
