Abstract

According to preliminary data of UNESCO the oldest inhabitant of a planet now lives in the Republic Sakha (Yakutia). The article presents some results of the examination of a 117-years long-liver Semennikova (Djakonova) Varvara Konstantinovna. The age of the supercentenarian is certified by the record in the metric book of Yakutsk Spiritual Consistory for the Bulunskiy Spasskiy Church. The standard methods and unified criteria of estimation applied in epidemiological researches and at examination of elderly contingent were used. The health state, lifestyle and quality of life of the supercentenarian have been studied. During physical and instrumental examination of the centenarian the following data have been obtained: asthenic type of the constitution, the lowered index of body weight; the pathology of organism's functional systems (cardiovascular, respiratory, osteomuscular), appeared in senior age.
