Item Comparative Study of Prosopic (Facial) Index of Sindhi Community of Jodhpur District of Rajasthan and other Communities and Races.(2013-10) Kataria, Sushma K; Sharma, Priyanka; Kataria, Kushal RThe facial index is length of the face from root of nose to the bottom of the chin, expressed as a percentage of the greatest breadth across the cheek bones. Racial differences are much more marked in relation to face than elsewhere, so it is very useful anthropologically. For this 100 males from Sindhi community between the age group of eighteen to thirty-five years were taken and their facial index was calculated. The result indicated that average facial index in Sindhi individuals was 92.89 Mostly they were Leptoprosopic and Hyperleptoprosopic. The average facial index of Sindhi individuals was not comparable to any other Indian groups studied so far. But it was very close to North European and less than Nigerian population.Item A Study of the Sacral Index In Western Rajasthan Population In Comparison With Other Races.(2014-04) Kataria, Sushma K; Kulhari, Pravesh; Potaliya, Pushpa; Kataria, Kaushal RajThis study had a purpose of taking various measurements and calculating sacral index in the population of western Rajasthan.
