RESUMEN
Aim: To identify the Stature from the cephalo-facial dimension (facial height) in Indian females.Materials and Methods: A stadiometer was used to measure the stature, and the facial height was taken byutilizing a vernier caliper, in 43 female medical students. To know about the significance and correlation, thedata were analysed statistically.Results: Mean stature and the mean facial height were found to be 158.93±11.06 cm and 10.39±0.83 cm respectively.P value was less than 0.001 and Pearson’s coefficient obtained was 0.93. Hence, there is found to be a significantpositive correlation between stature and facial height in Indian females.Conclusion: Estimation of stature from the facial height could be performed where only unknown head and faceare brought for anthropometric examinations.
