MORPHOMETRIC STUDY FOR THE ESTIMATION OF TOTAL HUMERAL LENGTH USING HUMERUS SEGMENTS IN THE ANATOLIAN POPULATION
(Romanian Legal Med Soc, 2023) Tetiker, Hasan; Gencer, Ceren Uguz; Kosar, Mehmet Ilkay; Sabanciogullari, Vedat
The aim of this study is to estimate the total humeral length (THL) using humerus segment measurementsA total of 124 unknown sexes and ossified humeri (56 right, 68 left) were included in the study. 14 segments, parallel to the long axis of the bone, were formed from 7 landmarks determined as H1-H7. Segment lengths were measured using an osteometric board. In addition, 7 (seven) segments, named C1-C3 in the proximal and W1-W4 in the distal of the bone, wereAll humerus segments and the total humeral length showed a positive correlation. In the regression analyses, C1 in the proximal, W3 and W4 in the distal, and H15, H16, and H27 in the length measures were found to have high explanatoriness for the total humeral length estimation. In multiple regression analyses, it was observed that explanatoriness in the total humeral length estimation increased, particularly when the measurements of the distal end and the diaphyseal length were used together.This study results showed that the total humeral length could be estimated from different segment sizes of the humerus. This information will be a guide for forensic medicine and archaeological research.
