• Head circumference, upper arm circumference, skinfold thickness (triceps and subscapular), nutrient and amino acid intakes of 1, 518 Hokkaido orphanage children, 1-18 years of age in 1976, were determined. Arm muscle area and arm fat area were calculated in comparison to the USA standard value for assessment of the nutritional status.<BR>The boys' head circumferences were bigger than those of the girls. The upper arm circumferences was no difference between both sexes. Skinfold thicknesses (triceps and subscapular) among females were greater than that for males. Sexual dimorphism was evident above 6 years in triceps skinfold, and above 5 years in subscapular ones. The arm muscle area was greater in boys than in girls. Sexual dimorphism was noticed above 13 years. These values were lower than the USA standard. It was assumed that their protein intake of those children were insufficient. The arm fat areas in girls were superior to those of boys, and the sexual dimorphism was evident above 6 years. They surpassed those of the USA value. Therefore, their energy intake seemed to be sufficient. Their nutrient adequacies were insufficient in energy, protein, iron and ascorbic acid compared with those of the national averages.<BR>From these results, in order to assess the nutritional status of these children without their dietary data, it necessitates the study of the Japanese upper arm anthropometric data. These findings will apparently contribute as a standard value for assessment of the nutritional status of children in Asia of Mongolian descent.
