Yenidoğan - beş yaş arası çocuklarda ve 16-60 yaş arası erişkinlerde 2.-4. parmak oranının araştırılması

Amaç: Çalışmamızda yeni doğan - beş yaş arası çocuklarda ve 16-60 yaş arası erişkinlerde el ölçümleri ve ikinci ile dördüncü parmak ölçümleri arasındaki ilişkilerin belirlenmesi amaçlandı. Gereç ve yöntem: Çalışmamız 30 miadında yenidoğan, yaşları yenidoğan - beş yaş arasında değişen 200 çocuk ve yaşları 16 - 60 yaş arasında değişen 120 erişkinde yapıldı. Bütün vakalarda el uzunluğu, el genişliği, 2. parmak uzunluğu, 4. parmak uzunluğu, 2.4 parmak oranı ( 2. parmak uzunluğu / 4. parmak uzunluğu) x 100 belirlendi. Bulgular: El genişliği ve 2. parmak ölçümlerinde dişi yenidoğanlarda daha büyük olmak üzere cinsiyetler arasında istatistiksel bakımdan farklılıklar tespit edildi (p

An investigation of the ratio between second and fourth fingers in between newborn and five years children and between 16 and 60 years adults

Purpose: In this study, we aimed to determine the measurements and the relation between measured parameters of hand, second and fourth finger in between newborn and five years old children and between 16 and 60 years old adults. Materials and method: We were studied 30 newborns, 200 children who were aged between newborn and five years, and 120 adult who were aged between 16 and 60 years. In all cases, hand length, hand width, second and fourth finger lengths, and second-fourth finger index ( 2nd finger length / 4th finger length) x 100 were measured. Results: The measurements of hand width and second finger were significantly different between sexes in whom it was greater in full term female newborns infants (p<0.05). There were differences in the second finger lengths during the childhood infants between sexes (p<0.05). A significant positive correlation between the hand and finger dimensions was found in the all groups. Furthermore, the second / fourth finger index of male was higher in full term newborns, during the childhood and adulthood. Conclusions: With more expressions of the parameter of hand and second- fourth finger at full term newborns, during the childhood and adulthood, the possibility of more information about individual variations will be given. Knowledge about normal variations in hand and second-fourth finger dimensions can help in diagnosis of pathologies or anomaly of skeleton and endocrine development.
