Abstract

1. STATURE ESTIMATION BY USING PER-CUTANEOUS TIBIAL LENGTH

Mahima Srivastava, Abhijeet Soni, Anupam Johry

ABSTRACT

Background: Stature estimation is an important part to establish the individuality of an unidentified dead, body or any mutilated part of such body by the Medico-legal expert. Aim: The present study made an attempt to establish the statistical correlation between stature and per-cutaneous tibial length (PCTL) by formulating a simple regression equation and multiplication factor (M.F.) for the people of Ajmer region. Method: A random sample of 250 male and 250 female subjects of the Ajmer Region between the age group of 18-21 years were chosen. PCTL of right and left side were measured with the help of spreading caliper. Stature was estimated from PCTL statistically using simple regression analysis and M.F. Result: On computing the data, the mean PCTL for male was found to be 38.24±2.343cm, which was significantly (p<0.0001) greater than the female (36.064±2.464cm). The observed height was 164.5±8.257cm and 155.3±5.854cm for the male and female respectively. The regression formula derived for the male was y0=105.971+1.53 x(PCTL) ± 7.452 and for the female was y0= 103.76+1.43 x(PCTL) ± 4.69. The M.F was 4.302 for male and 4.306 for female. A significant positive correlation exists between the stature and PCTL using simple regression analysis and M.F. Conclusion: It was concluded that the stature in Ajmer region can be determined by using the formula derived from the present study fairly accurately.
