Teeth are extremely useful in the estimation of age and are preferable over other skeletal methods As they are durable in archaeological contexts, have minimal remodeling, and the growth of permanent and deciduous teeth continues over the entire juvenile period [1,2]. Formation of deciduous teeth begins in utero at about 4 months and permanent teeth complete formation at approximately 25 years ...

A necessary requirement for many musculoskeletal modeling tasks is an estimation of skeletal motion from observations of the surface of a body segment. The skeletal motion may be used directly for inverse kinematic calculations or as an observation sequence for forward dynamic simulations. This paper describes a fundamentally new approach to human motion capture for biomechanical analysis. Tech...

Estimating stature from skeletonized remains is one of the essential parameters in the development of a biological profile. A new procedure for determining skeletal height (SKH) incorporating the vertical space height (VSH) from the anterior margin of the sacral promontory to the superior margins of the acetabulae for use in the anatomical method of stature estimation is introduced. Regression ...

Objective:Age estimation is important in forensic medicine and odontology for identification of deceased victims also crimes accidents. Various methods have been constructed tested to estimate the age young individuals. Among them are physical examinations using anthropometric measurements, skeletal maturation, dental estimation, a combination development measurements tooth eruption. In cases u...

backgroundsitting on inappropriate benches, as well as the poor posture (body position) during the years of growth, can lead to spinal disorders, fatigue and discomfort in students. this study aimed to investigate the relationship between features of desks and chairs and prevalence of some musculoskeletal disorders in primary school students in abadan.materials and methodsthis cross-sectional s...

background prediction of skeletal growth is necessary for growth modification and surgical orthodontic treatments and is usually done by assessing skeletal maturity indicators in hand-wrist radiographs. the use of growth stages of cervical vertebrae in lateral cephalograms has been suggested to avoid overexposure. objectives this study seeks to assess the degree of agreement between hand-wrist ...

skeletal muscle is a highly differentiated tissue with very specific functions which has low potential of regeneration. skeletal muscle injuries especially in athletes almost have lead to muscular dysfunctions and healing may be prolonged for several years. therefore, working on skeletal muscle differentiation remained an importance in biomedical researches. adipose derived stem cells (adscs) a...

eperisone hydrochloride is a skeletal muscle relaxant and paracetamol is cyclooxygenase inhibitor. these drugs in combination are used as antispasmodics. a simple, specific, precise and accurate method was developed, namely reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography for simultaneous estimation of eperisone hydrochloride and paracetamol in tablet dosage form. in rp-hplc method separati...

While discriminant function analysis is an inherently Bayesian method, researchers attempting to estimate ancestry in human skeletal samples often follow with the calculation of frequentist-based typicalities for assigning group membership. Such approach problematic because it fails account admixture and variation why individuals may be classifijied as outliers or nonmembers particular groups. T...
