Os ossos estudados permaneceram inumados por 3 anos. A amostra constituiu-se de 55 pares masculinos e 55 pares femininos. Foram estudadas as dimensões: altura, largura e comprimento, como também o diâmetro da articulação subtalar em eixo paralelo à articulação talocalcaneonavicular (diâmetro articular A) e o comprimento de corda referente ao arco formado pela articulação talocalcaneonavicular (corda). Os resultados encontrados permitiram o estabelecimento de metodologias para o diagnóstico do sexo pelo calcâneo através de regressão logística, análise de função discriminante e pela média e intervalo de confiança. Estas metodologias apresentaram um alto índice de acerto na amostra, o que permite o estabelecimento do sexo em avaliações futuras com bastante confiabilidade e com a vantagem de terem sido desenvolvidas a partir de uma amostra nacional / Abstract: The author of this research studies 110 pairs of calcaneum (well bones) of adult individuals over 20 whose age end sex were know with absolute accuracy. The bones studied had been inhumed (buried) for 3 verso The samples consisted of 55 male pairs and 53 female ones. Height, width and length dimensions were studie, as well as the length of subheel articulation in parallel axle to talocalcaneonavicular (A) articulation and the chord length refered to the arch formed by talocalcaneonavicular articulation (8). The results obtained allowed the establishment og methodologies for diagnosing sex after study of the calcaneum though logistic regression, analysis of discriminanting function, and after the average of thustworthiness range. These methods presented a high rate of accuracy in these samples which allows the identification of the sex in future studies with high trustworkthiness, besides the advantage of having been developed from national samples / Mestrado / Mestre em Odontologia Legal e Deontologia

Title Atypical Pronation of the Sub-Talar Joint: Its Implications on the Lower Limb Background Atypical pronation of the sub-talar joint, or overpronation of the foot, as it is more commonly known, is a current subtopic in foot and lower limb-related biomechanical issues. Typical pronation is a tri-planar movement that involves eversion of the hindfoot, combined with abduction and dorsiflexion of the forefoot. Atypical pronation is recognized when this motion is excessive, and may be determined by the extent and duration to which this occurs according to the rhythmic timing during the gait pattern. It is a mechanical problem of the foot that primarily results from a subluxation or shift of the sub-talar joint and bones of the mid- and hind-foot. As a common finding in the general population, especially in those with flexible flat feet, atypical pronation may result chronically in a displacement of the bones and joints of the lower limb. Research has stated that excessive pronation of the ankle-foot complex may cause change in position of certain bones in the lower limb. This is believed to occur through an interaction between foot and pelvis through a kinetic chain mechanism. Furthermore, it has been stated that atypical pronation may affect weight transfer of the lower limb during gait that may...
