Year 2018, Volume: 4 Issue: 2, 957 - 967, 15.08.2018

Abstract

Amaç: Bu
çalışmanın amacı sağlıklı yetişkin Türk kadınlarında üst ekstremite
segmentlerinin ölçümleri ve boy uzunluğu arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemek ve Türk
kadınlarına ait üst ekstremite bölümlerinden boy uzunluğu tahmini için
regresyon denklemi oluşturmaktı.

Yöntem: Çalışma
grubu ortalama yaşı 31.91±7.00 yıl olan 130 kadından oluşmuştur. Çalışma
grubunu oluşturan kadınlardan dominant ve dominant olmayan taraftan üst
ekstremite ölçümleri alındı. Ayrıca, analizler için SSPS 21.0 paket programı
kullanıldı.  Kolmogorov-Smirnov test
sonucuna göre parametrik veya non-parametrik test uygulandı. Ayrıca, Ki-kare
testi ve Spearman Pearson Korelasyon analizi yapıldı. Anlamlılık için p<0.05
kabul edildi. 

Bulgular: Çalışma
bulguları analiz edildiğinde, dominant tarafta sırasıyla metakarpal genişlik,
metakarpal çevre, el bileği genişliği, el bileği çevre, kol uzunluğu ve el
uzunluğu sırasıyla 7.12 cm, 17.97 cm, 4.76 cm, 14.76 cm, 65.88 cm ve 17.43 cm
iken, dominant olmayan tarafta aynı ölçümler sırasıyla 7.10 cm, 17.88 cm, 4.75
cm, 14.67 cm, 65.70 cm ve 17.39 cm olarak bulundu. Ayrıca, kulaç uzunluğu ve
boy uzunluğu sırasıyla 158.66 cm ve 163.35 cm olarak bulundu. Dahası, dominant
ve dominant olmayan tarafta üst ekstremite ölçümlerinin ortalama değerleri
arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık bulunmamıştır. Kulaç uzunluğu
kullanılarak yapılan boy uzunluğu tahmininde kulaç uzunluğu ölçümü diğer uzunluk
ölçümlerinden daha geçerli bulundu.







Sonuç: Çalışma
bulgularına göre boy uzunluğu, diğer ölçümlerden ziyade kulaç uzunluğu ölçümü ile
daha yüksek tahmin edilebilir. Bu çalışmada sunulan bulgular populasyon farklılıklarını
belirlemek, anatomistlere, adli tıp uzmanlarına ve antropologlara yardımcı
olmak için referans data oluşturmada dikkate alınması gereken üst ekstremite boyutları
ile ilgili regresyon formülünü ve anatomik parametreleri tanımlamaktadır.

Regression analysis in stature estimation from upper extremity dimensions in Turkish females

Year 2018, Volume: 4 Issue: 2, 957 - 967, 15.08.2018

Abstract

Objectives: This
study’s aim was to determine the relationship between stature and measurements
of the upper extremity segments in healthy adult females and obtain regression
equations for prediction of stature from upper extremity dimensions in Turkish
females.

Materials and Methods:
The study group consisted of 130
females mean aged 31.91±7.00 years. Dominant and non dominant upper extremity
measurements were obtained from all subjects. Additionally, SPSS version 21
software package program was used for all analysis. A parametric test or
non-parametric test was applied according to the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test
results. Moreover, the Chi square test and Spearman Pearson Correlation
analysis were used. Significance was set at p<0.05.

Results:
The data of this study were analyzed, the mean
values of metacarpal width, metacarpal circumference, wrist width, wrist
circumference, arm length and hand length were 7.12 cm, 17.97 cm, 4.76 cm,
14.76 cm, 65.88 cm and 17.43 cm in dominant side, respectively; whereas, the
same values were found as 7.10 cm, 17.88 cm, 4.75 cm, 14.67 cm, 65.70 cm and
17.39 cm in non-dominant side, respectively. Moreover, the mean value of arm
span and height were measured as 158.66 cm and 163.35 cm, respectively.
Furthermore, there were no significant difference as statistically in the mean
value of upper extremity measurements in dominant and non-dominant side. In
stature estimation which was performed by using arm span, this parameter was more
valid than the other measurements.

Conclusion: Due to
our findings, stature can be estimated higher by using arm span measurement
than the other measurements. The observations presented in this report have
defined anatomic parameters and regression formula about upper extremity
dimensions that need to be taken into consideration for reference data to
determine population discrepancies and to help for anatomists, forensic
scientists and anthropologists.
