Implication

Analysis reveals significant correlations between stature and cranial, mandibular measurements, suggesting the utility of mandibular metrics in forensic cases.

Key Points

The distance between the mental symphysis and mental foramen is significant for stature estimation.
Statistical analysis indicated that the model explained 51.3% of the variance in stature estimates.
Cranial and mandibular measurements were assessed for precision, yielding reliable results for stature estimates.
The study utilized a sample of 84 identified adult Portuguese skeletons, highlighting regional anatomical studies.
