Abstract

Objective: Estimating stature from long extremity bones, such as femur, humerus, is commonlyused during forensic examinations. The aim of this study is to estimate stature by anthropometric measurements of right and left-hands second (2D) and fourth digit (4D) lengths.Materials and Methods: The sample group consisted of 140 young adults, 70 male and 70 females(aged 21-19 years), whose (2D) and (4D) lengths were measured (using digital vernier caliper) of theirleft and right hands. One measurement was taken directly from landmarks from the proximal metacarpophalangeal crease to the finger tips.The program SPSS (Version 17.0) was used to make a descriptive analysis, Student’s t-test was usedto analyze the difference in height (2D) and (4D) between males and females. One-way ANOVA wasused to determine the potential interactions between anthropometric measurements within each other andstature. Pearson Correlation coefficient and related P values were also used. Statistical significance wasassigned to p values

Özet

Amaç: Femur, humerus gibi uzun ekstremite kemiklerinden boy tahmini, adli incelemelerde yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, sağ ve sol el ikinci (2D) ve dördüncü parmak (4D) uzunluklarından boy tahmini yapmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Örneklem grubu 19-21 yaş aralığında olan 70 erkek ve 70 kadın olmak üzere toplam 140 genç erişkinden oluşmuştur. Sol ve sağ ellerinin (2D) ve (4D) uzunlukları dijital elektronik kumpas kullanılarak ölçülmüştür. Parmakların uzunluklularını ölçmek için proksimal metakarpofalangeal kıvrımdan başlanarak, parmakların uçlarına kadar olan uzunluk esas alınmıştır. Antropometrik ölçümler ile boy arasındaki potansiyel etkileşimleri belirlemek amacıyla tek yönlü ANOVA ve Pearson Korelasyon katsayısı, SPSS programı kullanılarak hesaplanmıştır. Doğrusal ve çoklu regresyon denklemleri de geliştirilmiştir. Bulgular: Sağ ve sol parmak boyu değerleri arasındaki farklar her iki cinsiyet için istatistiksel olarak anlamlıydı (p
