Abstract:

The authors have analyzed the data base of L.P. Astanin (1951) by 19 macro- and microscopic signs of the proximal phalanx of the V finger of the left hand of 40 Russian women aged 18—85. With the increase of years, the external parameters of the proximal phalanx change insufficiently, the medullary cavity increases, and the compact substance area decreases due to the erosion of bone lamellas. The total number of vascular channels changes insufficiently, but their average sizes dramatically increase due to resorption. The majority of the studied age-related markers are correlation-dependent on each other. Three diagnostic models with significant indices of determination (R2=0.719—0.804) have been calculated using multiple regression analysis in a stepwise manner. By the verification results, the diagnostic models can be used in forensic medical practice.
