ABSTRACT
Aim:
To identify the Stature from the cephalo-facial dimension (facial height) in Indian females.Materials andMethods:
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.
