Anthropometric Studies of Inner Canthal Distance, Outer Canthal Distance and Canthal Index of Adult Ibibios
Outer canthal distance, Inner canthal distance and canthal index are important component of craniofacial anthropometry. Craniofacial anthropometry is vital in making a precise and systematic measurement of the human skull. Eight hundred (800) adults comprising 400 males and 400 females were used for this study. The subjects were measured for inner and outer canthal distances using a nonstretcha...
متن کاملAnthropometry, Amplitude of Accommodation, and Spherical Equivalent Refractive Error in a Nigerian Population
Aim. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between anthropometry, amplitude of accommodation assessed by minus-lens to blur (AAPUB) and push-up to blur (AAMLB), and spherical equivalent refraction (SEQ). Method. A total of two hundred and one subjects aged between 17 and 70 years with mean age of 34.2 ± 13.3 years, consisting of 93 males and 108 females were recruited for thi...
متن کاملDevelopmental craniofacial anthropometry: Assessment of race effects.
Differences in craniofacial anatomy among racial groups have been documented in a variety of structures, but the oral and maxillofacial regions have been shown to be a particularly defining region of variability between different racial/ethnic groups. Such comparisons are informative, but they neither address developmental changes of the craniofacial anatomy nor do they assess or take into acco...
متن کاملCraniometric Analysis of Nigerian Population
Introduction: The existence of sexual dimorphism in human skeletons especially skull and its medico-legal importance had long been studied [3] [2,1]. This study has investigated the existence of sexual dimorphism in cranial dimensions of Nigerian population. Methods: A total of 100 adult dry skulls, (78 males, 22 females) free from damage and deformity fully ossified from Departments of Ana...
متن کاملHand anthropometry survey for the Jordanian population
This paper presents the results of an anthropometric study of the hand from a sample of 120 female and 115 male adults from four major cities in Jordan. The mean, standard deviation, and various percentiles are summarized in tables and, for each dimension, a comparison is made between genders, using t-tests. Comparisons between Jordanians and other populations (Bangladeshis, Nigerians, Vietname...
