Ulna measurement predicts height in healthy children, and has been proposed as a good predictor of height in DMD. Prediction equations have not been validated in DMD boys on glucocorticoid (GC) therapy. To determine if ulna length accurately predicts standing height in GC-treated DMD boys. We ...
This study assessed the extent to which ulna length could be used to predict height and body mass index (BMI) in various groups of English and Portuguese hospitalised patients, and tidal volumes in critically ill patients at risk of requiring ventilatory
2017: Estimated height from knee height or ulna length and self-reported height are no substitute for actual height in inpatients Nutrition 33: 52-56 Griffiths, S.; Murray, S.B.; Medeiros, A.; Blashill, A.J. 2017: The tall and the short of it: An investigation of height ideals, ...
“Ulna length proved to be significantly different in both groups, but a slightly more significant difference was noted between arms of tennis players than soldiers. Radius length differed only in tennis players” You can see that the tennis players had greater length asymmetry than the soldiers. ...
The length of the forearm was defined as the distance from the olecranon to the ulna styloid with the elbow at 90o and the forearm pronated. The cross sectional area (CSA, mm2), volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD, mg/cm3), and polar moment of inertia (g*mm) were analyzed using a...

about clamping them with the same intensity or amount of time. Since my right side is so much stronger it should be able to withstand more clamping. Thus, it was my goal with this to correct for the discrepancy between the right and left side in addition to increasing bone length overall...
Ulna length (UL) has been used in mathematical formulas to predict the body height of healthy and sick individuals. However, the evaluation of its use with patients admitted to intensive care units (ICU) is scarce. The objective of this study was to develop a mathematical equation to estimate...
Height, arm span, ulna, forearm, tibia, and lower leg lengths were measured with a Harpenden stadiometer and anthropometer. Prediction equations for height based on ulna length (U) and age in years (A) were developed using linear regression. Ulna centile charts were developed by the LMS ...
Height was predicted from ulna length using the Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (MUST) equations and compared against the measured values. Linear regression analysis was used to develop equations to estimate height from ulna length and to explore the relationship between height and ulna length in...
