The thickness of the hypodermic fatty layer was measured on 74 subjects aged between 40 and 80 who have motor impediments resulting from apoplectic strokes. The measurements were taken from 36 different points of the body and the results were compared with those taken from healthy persons of a similar age, as well as patients of leprosy, lung tuberculosis and in the course of high calorie alimentation.<BR>The thickness of the hypodermic fatty layer of the apoplectic patients was greater on the trunk and the proximal part of the extremities, and smaller on the distal parts of the extremities. And the disparity in thickness between the thicker parts and the thinner parts was larger than that of the forgoing comparable subjects. The thickness of the hypodermic fatty layer on the apoplectic patients did not vary statistically according to sex. On the other subjects, however, it was always thicker in the female.<BR>Comparing the thickness of the hypodermic fatty layer on the ill and healthy sides of hemiplegia patients, it was slightly greater on the ill side than on the healthy in the upper extremities and the extensor part of lower extremities.
