      <title>Introduction</title>
      <p>The aim of this paper is evaluation of the functional capabilities of the learning and                    simultaneously analyzing its adaptive parameters based on quantitative instrumental methods. These data are important for the improvement of the                training process in different kinds of education. Moreover it is known the growth of the information load and the officially recognized small percentage of the absolutely healthy students (no more than 10% of schoolchildren according to the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation). This, in turn, determines the specificity of the management of the educational process in educational institutions of all levels, including the higher, secondary and primary links.</p>
      <p>The savings technologies acquire special  significance in the period of the demographic crisis that dominates not only in Russia, but in the                   European space.</p>
      <p>In this regard, the diagnosis of the functional state based on instrumental methods makes it                  possible to develop a new approach to the problem of healthcare and the system of vocational orientation of trainees.</p>
      <p>The constancy of the internal state of                   biosystems is the opposition to disturbances from the external environment due to the autonomy and              stability of their internal organization (homeostasis). In order to remain healthy, the human body systems must be regulated in such a way that a stable internal balance remains under the constantly changing external conditions. The variability of the pulse rate of the circulatory system is an objective indicator of such stability.</p>
      <p>The paper presents an attempt of such a                       differentiated analysis of adaptation opportunities and stress resistance of schoolchildren of middle and senior classes using the instrumental method based on the               hardware-software complex "Varikard" of the Russian company "Ramena" Ryazan researcher Yu. Semenov. The complex can measure 40 parameters of the subject, based on measuring the variability of the heart rate.</p>
      <p>The authors of this work were not sure of the  success of the enterprise, since this method was                      previously applied to the examinees, whose formation of homeostasis was completed.</p>

      <title>Results and Discussion</title>
      <p>It is convenient to divide the state of the                     diagnosed into three levels, denoted conditionally "norm", "below the norm" and "above the norm," which allows us to characterize the functional state of the human being from the point of view of the risk of developing the                 disease.</p>
      <p>As a basis for the analysis of the functional state of high schoolers (9th, 10th and 11th grades), in our opinion, the most representative indicators such as heart rate (pulse rate), stress index and average statistical deviation from fashion pulse rate. (Schoolchildren of the 9th grade are usually referred to as teenagers, and the 11th grades as the youth period.) Based on diagnostic results,                 histograms were plotted for each of the above measured values. On all the histograms in the center was placed the indicator corresponding to the "norm" state, to the left of it - "below the norm", and to the right - "above the norm".</p>
      <p>Based on these indicators, conclusions were drawn about the functional state, which determined the physiological norm, the donorological norm (maintenance of life with a higher voltage of regulatory systems), premorbitic states (the beginning of possible development of disease), and disruption of adaptation ma diseases).</p>
      <p>In particular, studies carried out on the basis of the 57th Ryazan school of the city revealed a number of peculiarities about the change in the frequency of the rhythm of cardiac contraction by age and gender in schoolchildren of the 9th grade (mean age 15 years), the 10th grade (mean age 16.5 years) and 11th grade  (the average age is 17.5 years).</p>
      <p>The results obtained (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="idm1843196876">Figure 1</xref>) in the main confirm the results of the studies of the authors of the study who found a lowering of the pulse rate in schoolchildren in the upper grades compared with the younger (the prevalence of tachycardia in adolescents is a known medical fact). At the same time, our comparative analysis shows the               dominance of this indicator in young men. Consideration of the same pulse rate distribution in the bradycardia, norm, and tachycardia groups shows the appearance of a bradycardia in the group of young people with age, which, we believe, is due to their more active involvement in sports. In general, the transition to the older group of              subjects was characterized by the desire for the evolution of histograms to the law of normal statistical distribution. However, the condition of tachycardia is largely present in girls and boys, which may be due to the incompleteness of the development of the vegetative system or their small physical activity, in particular, the irrational organization of school and sectional physical training, as well as the illnesses considered organization of work and leisure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="idm1843196732">Figure 2</xref>.</p>

      <p>The deviation from the norm indicates an overtension of the regulatory systems or their inadequate development. It turned out that, like the indicator of the rhythm statistical histogram. As for adolescent girls, the evolution of the stress index has already largely been              completed, the age group of the 11th class does not have a state of the overtension of the regulatory systems, while for youths this  component remains significant (about 10%).</p>
      <p>It should be noted that the normalization of this indicator in the sense of the previously noted stabilization of the pulse rate of the circulatory system in the                          comparable sex and age groups.</p>
      <p>The third parameter was the mean square                 deviation (MSD) of variability of heart rhythm. Its               statistical norm ranges from 30 to 100 conventional units (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="idm1843200908">Figure 3</xref>). It is known from observations of astronauts that during the first intense minutes of the rise to the orbit the histogram, whose width is determined by the MSD,              sharply contracts, and the transition to a calm state of  adaptation is characterized by an increase in this                    index <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ridm1849917196">1</xref>. The stability of this indicator was noted in the group of girls with increasing age, while in young people there is little in the teenage MSD, and its normalization (increase) is found in 11t<sup>h </sup>form.</p>

      <p>Although in general all the previously discussed characteristics of the tenth grade repeat the revealed               patterns, but they also reveal differences.</p>
      <p>These results were obtained in the autumn period of the school year. It was interesting to consider the role of vacation time on diagnosed indicators, as well as their change at the end of the lessons compared with their               beginning.</p>
      <p>We believe that this feature is related to the lack of final exams or testing. Indeed, this was found on the characteristic indicators of the functional state. In the                   following <xref ref-type="fig" rid="idm1843165796">Figure 4</xref>, <xref ref-type="fig" rid="idm1843165148">Figure 5</xref>, <xref ref-type="fig" rid="idm1843163564">Figure 6</xref>, the results of such a survey of                      tenth-grade students in the first week after the spring break.</p>

      <p>From the presented results of the rhythm of heartbeats analysis it is evident that the beginning of               lessons is characterized by an increased frequency in girls (found 45% of tachycardia conditions), which significantly decreased by the end of the school day (till 15%), passing into a normally distributed state for this indicator.</p>
      <p>At the same time, youths on this indicator shown out about stability (5% of the state of tachycardia at the beginning and the same level at the end of the lessons), and 30% of the total number of boys students was normal on the heart rate of contraction. It turned out that, as well as the rate of heart rate in boys of the 10th grade, it            stabilized in comparison with the students of the 9th grade, specifically, this indicator is "above the norm" (0%) both at the beginning of the day and at its end. The                 revealed peculiarity is its small value at the beginning of the school day (10%) and a slight increase (15%) at the end of the lessons, the same as for students in the 9th grade. This indicates the incompleteness of the formation of regulatory systems to 10 years of schooling.</p>
      <p>As for girls, the stress index at the beginning of lessons is slightly increased (about 20% above norm) with its next decrease by 4 times - the stage of weakening by the end of the training load. </p>
      <p>A similar change shows the mean square                  deviation (MSD) of heart rate variability (statistic from 30 to 100). The stability of this indicator in girls with                 increasing age was revealed, while in adolescents there is little, and its normalization (increase) is revealed only by the 11th year of education.</p>
      <p>From the received results it is possible to assert, that the diagnostics resulted above, can be applied for schoolboys of 16 years and is more senior.</p>
      <p>The method <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ridm1849917196">1</xref> of the estimation of the regulatory capabilities of the organism from all the analyzed                   indicators into a unified characteristic, called the                      functional state of the subjects. From histograms for girls and youths (Fig. 6) it follows that for 5% of girls, the    greatest stress is at the beginning of the learning process (the state of adaptation failure is the fourth column of the histogram). This state disappears at the end of the                     educational process, in young men it does not arise.</p>
      <p>The indices of this category from the point of view of variance and mathematical expectation of random               variables, the measured parameters are close to standard results. This also follows from the results of the                        comparison of the given data with the results of our early research and their reproducibility. Comparison of                   overstress of regulatory systems and their magnitude at the beginning and at the end of lessons on the deviation of the stress index from the norm is essential when choosing the direction of career guidance work with students.</p>

      <title>Conclusion</title>
      <p>The considered capabilities of the                          hardware-software complex "Varikard" allow it to                  recommend for diagnosing the functional condition of high schoolers. The other task of the work was to answer the question of the possibility at a quantitative level to determine the difference in the evolution of these               indicators, to reveal differences in the sex-age                          characteristics of schoolchildren of the 9th, 10th and 11th grades based on the analysis of the variation in the rhythm of cardiac contractions, which was previously not known in the literature was discussed. Consequently, recording the time interval of R-R peaks on a cardiogram allows you to judge the health status of the schoolboys surveyed.</p>
      <p>From the comparative survey, conclusions are drawn about the applicability of instrumental methods for analyzing the functional state of schoolchildren and the possibility of correcting educational and educational work on this basis.</p>
