To Determine the Stature by Footprint Length

Abstract

Aim: To determine the stature by Footprint Length

MaterialsandMethod: The forensic medicine department conducted this prospective research. The research involved a total of one hundred individuals. Using a measuring device, the length of the footprint is recorded in centimeters, starting at the furthest edge of the heel and ending at the tip of the longest toe.

Results: the height of fifty male participants and the lengths of their right and left footprints. Compared to the right footprint, the typical left footprint is somewhat shorter. Research showed that both the right and left foot lengths were positively correlated with height (r = 0.79 and 0.77, respectively). There is a statistically significant difference in the correlation coefficient (p = 0.001). The height of fifty female participants, the length of their right and left footprints, and the two variables. Research showed that height was positively correlated with both the right and left footprint lengths (r = +0.92 for RFPL and LFPL +0.89). There is a statistically significant difference in the correlation coefficient (P = 0.001). Because of this strong association, a regression equation might be used to forecast a girl's height based on her right foot length.

Conclusion: The current investigation found a statistically significant relationship between height and the length of the subjects' right and left foot prints. Males outnumber girls in terms of both height and mean foot length. The gender gap in left and right footprint length is not statistically significant.
