Piecewise Regression Analysis of Secular Change in the Maximum Femoral Vertical Head Diameter of American White Males and Females
2016
Human Biology: The Official Publication of the American Association of Anthropological Genetics
Objectives: Osteometric measurements of the femur are consistently used for the estimation of stature, sex, and race in the construction of demographic profiles. The presence of positive or negative changes in the size of the maximum vertical diameter of the femoral head could potentially affect the validity of such profiles. Additionally, changes in femoral head size may be an indicator of the socioeconomic status, health, and nutrition of a population over periods of time. Methods: Two large
