Overview

Descriptive cross-sectional study shows correlation between finger lengths and stature in adult males, suggesting useful forensic applications.

Key Points

  • Moderate positive correlations exist between stature and both index and ring finger lengths, enhancing identification.
  • The right index finger length showed the strongest correlation (r=0.512, p<0.001) among finger measurements.
  • Descriptive cross-sectional study analyzed data from 246 male adults aged 21-40 in Central Punjab using regression equations.
  • Findings support the use of finger length measurements as reliable tools for estimating stature in forensic cases.
