摘要
本文对新疆鄯善洋海出土的61例(成年个体45例,未成年个体16例)遗骸进行了眶顶板筛孔样病变的观察。在被调查的成年个体中眶顶板筛孔样病变的患病率为44.4%,未成年个体的患病率为75%,且成年个体眶顶板筛孔样病变的患病率性别差异显著。这种病变的高频率现象,很可能与当时单一的饮食结构、低营养水平及不良卫生状况等因素所诱发的缺铁性贫血有关。为深入研究我国新疆地区古代居民眶顶板筛孔样病变的患病率及其发病原因提供了一组基础数据。
While cribra orbitalia studies have been undertaken in many parts of the world, until recently little was known about ancient human health in China. Focusing on skeletal pathologies, this paper documents the results of the first complete analysis of frequencies and pathogenic factors of cribra orbitalia of Bronze Age skulls from Xinjiang, China. The incidence of cribra orbitalia of 61skulls from Yanghai cemetery were observed, with the following results:44.4% of 45 adults had cribra orbitalia; and 75 % presence in the group of age 16 and under. There was also a marked sexual difference in the frequency of cribra orbitalia. Since the Yanghai nationality did not have enough food or lived mainly on flesh without enough iron, these resuhs suggest that iron deficiency anemia is the major cause of cribra orbitalia.
