RETROSPECTIVE RESEARCH ON REGRESSION PATTERN IN MALE SKELETAL EPIPHYSEAL FUSION
Journal Title: Journal of Evidence Based Medicine and Healthcare - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 16
Abstract
In developing countries like India, because of illiteracy, ignorance regarding the importance of official records like birth and death, vast majority of population fail to give information of such vital events to the concerning authorities. This causes paucity in such information when needed in a medico-legal case or for research purpose. There is a wide confusion and controversy regarding the standard method to be used for estimating age in the Indian Sub-continent. The aim of the current study is to find the correlation among the various parameters of commonly examined ossification centres, through which a regression formula with positive correlation and maximum coefficient of determination can be, derived which can be attempted to be standardised for the estimation of age.
