| The pterion is an important landmark on the side of the skull as it overlies both the anterior branch of the middle meningeal artery and the lateral cerebral fissure intracranially. The study was carried out to determine the pterion types and define its distances to some neighboring structures in dry human skulls of Southern Nigerians. The study comprised 50 dry human skulls of unknown sex and age obtained from selected Nigerian Universities. Sutural patterns of the pterion on both sides of each skull based on the description of Murphy (1956), were observed and recorded. Distances of the pterion to neighboring structures were also measured using digital vernial caliper. Data obtained were subjected to statistical analysis using descriptive statistics and... |

| Human nose occurs in many shapes and sizes and ethnic influences may result in different appearances of the nose. The classification of nose shapes can be based on nasal indices. This study was undertaken to determine the nasal indices of the Binis, between the ages of 12 and 15 years in order to classify the nose types. The study sample consisted of 200 subjects; 100 males and 100 females who were sampled purposively, from 14 secondary schools that were randomly selected. Nasal height and nasal width were measured in mm, using digital vernier caliper (Mitutoyo, Japan). The data obtained were subjected to statistical analysis using descriptive statistics and independent sample t test. P 0.05 is considered statistically significant. Descriptive statistics... |
