“…25 However, in the present study, the correlation between rs6180 and RCP-LCP was weakened on adding the covariate of A'-PTM' to the correction value. As craniofacial size is strongly correlated with body height, 26 we estimated a relationship between rs6180 and height by using A'-PTM' data as an indicator for the craniofacial size.…”

Objective: To examine the relationship between three-dimensional mandibular morphology and growth hormone receptor (GHR) gene variants in a healthy Japanese population. Materials and Methods: The subjects, who were unrelated Japanese orthodontic patients, consisted of 64 men and 114 women. Using the Taqman genotyping assay, GHR gene rs6184 and rs6180 variants were detected in genomic DNA extracted from saliva. Mandibular volume and length were measured from cone-beam computed tomography images that were analyzed using Analyze image-processing software. The relationship between GHR gene variants and threedimensional mandibular morphology was statistically examined. Results: Statistical significance for the relationship between the distance between the left and right coronoid processes and rs6180 was noted (P , .05). Conclusion: Our results indicate that the GHR variant rs6180 is associated with the distance between the left and right coronoid process in the Japanese subjects. (Angle Orthod. 2017;87:68-73)

“…Cranial dimensions have been shown to be a reliable means in predicting the stature in Italians (Introna et al, 1993), Japanese (Chiba & Terazawa, 1998), and South Africans (Ryan & Bidmos, 2007). In light of these studies, statistical analyses to help to estimate the stature appear to be significant, potential and of immense practical utility to forensic science experts, anthropologists, archaeologists and demographers.…”

SINGH, R. Estimation of stature and age from head dimensions in indian population. Int. J. Morphol., 31(4):1185-1190, 2013. SUMMARY:Body segments exhibit consistent ratios with stature, age, gender and race. Thus prediction of stature from cranial remains is vital in establishing the identity of an unknown individual in natural calamities and archaeological exploration where entire body skeleton is not available. Little is known about the cranial dimensions in Indian population. Hence the study was carried out to predict stature, age and sex for solving medico-legal problems, anthropological complexities and archaeological investigations. Undergraduate students in the age group of 17-26 years of CSM Medical University, UP, India were selected as subjects because of easy access. Cranial dimensions of the subjects were measured by spreading calliper and Todd' head spanner. Heights of subjects were measured by standing height measuring instrument in similar anatomical position and at fixed time to avoid diurnal variation. The correlation and regression analyses and statistical analyses carried out here is most important to anthropologists and forensic science experts to facilitate them to solve complicated medico-legal problems.
