Estimation of Stature on the Basis of Measurements of the Lower Limb
نویسنده
چکیده
Forensic anthropologists while dealing with skeletal remains have very little choice to use anatomical method for stature reconstruction due to non-availability of complete skeleton from a scene of crime in most of thecases. Thus, they have no choice but to use a relatively less precise method of stature reconstruction, i.e., themathematical method, which is workable even if a single long bone is available. The present study constitutes of 503 male Shia Muslims of Delhi, in the age range of 20 to 40 years. The linear regression equations have been formulated 222BHAVNA AND SURINDER NATH on the basis of correlation. Tibial length provides the best estimate of stature as it exhibits the overall highest value

Introduction: During spinal anesthesia, measurement of blood pressure is often obtained by an indirect method using an inflatable cuff on the upper arm. The relationship between the blood pressure measurements at the two sites in patients undergoing spinal anesthesia is unclear. This study was designed to evaluate the difference observed in systolic blood pressure (SBP) taken from the upp...
