| Abstract | ||
| Dear Editor, Please find enclosed the manuscript, "Age and Sex Discrimination via Tibial Measurement Estimation by Computed Tomography in Aswan Governorate," by Randa H. El-Hady, Safaa M. George, Heba A. Yassa, Aly E. Hassan, and Ahmed A. Mohamed, to be submitted to the Aswan University Medical Journal as a fresh research paper. The manuscript's contents were approved by all co-authors; no financial interests were to be disclosed. We attest that no other publication is reviewing it. In this manuscript, we reported the results of a cross-sectional study carried out on 200 Egyptians inhabited Aswan Governorate. It was found there was a significant (<0.001) difference between male and female, age ≤50 years and age >50 years, and between stature <165 cm and ≥165 cm according to different diameters (AB, CD, and EF). Also, A-B distance was the most accurate (81.5%), C-D distance was the most sensitive (83%), and A-B distance was the most specific (93%). We thought that the readers of the Aswan University Medical Journal might find our findings interesting since this study showed that the morphological differences represented by the tibial dimensions among and between the sexes, as well as in respect to their corresponding age groups, were highly significant. This study provided an equation to predict a person's height based on the length of the tibia. All authors declare that they have no conflicts of interest. We hope that the editorial board and the reviewers will agree on the interest of this study. Sincerely yours, Aly Hassan | ||
