Overview

Randomized trial estimates stature from hand and arm dimensions in North Indian women, indicating anthropological relevance.

Key Points

  • The study aims to create a standard formula for estimating stature using arm and hand measurements in the North Indian population.
  • 508 healthy female subjects aged 20 to 45 years were randomly selected.
  • Stature and six anthropometric parameters (three hand and three arm) were measured using standard tools.
  • Linear and multiple regression equations were applied to estimate stature from hand and arm measurements.
  • Hand and arm dimensions were significantly correlated with stature (p < 0.001).
  • Total arm length was the most reliable measurement for stature estimation (ranging from 0.414 to 0.794 accuracy).
  • Multiple regression models outperformed linear regression in reliability with lower standard errors and higher R-squared values.
