Effectiveness of equations for the prediction of stature from foot measurements in the Eastern Slovak population
INTRODUCTIONStature is one of the key characteristics for establishing personal identity, particularly in forensic investigations. One of the methods for its estimation is based on a mathematical correlation between foot dimensions and body height. STUDY AIMEDThe aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of various regression equations based on foot measurements for stature estimation in the Eastern Slovak population and to develop new …
A possible case of prenatal scurvy in a newborn from the early modern Kosice-Belanska cemetery
Background: The study presents skeletal remains of a subadult individual exhumed from the Kosice-Belanska cemetery, dated to the 18–20th century, in whom macroscopic changes typical of long-term vitamin C deficiency, known as scurvy, were identified. Objective: The aim of the study was to identify and document morphological indicators of scurvy in this individual and to contribute to the reconstruction of health status and living conditions of a …
Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis in a skeletal individual
Background: Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH), also known as Forestier’s disease, is a non-inflammatory degenerative disease of the spine and peripheral tendon attachments, characterized by calcification and ossification. In the axial skeleton, it primarily affects the ligamentum longitudinale anterius, but also the ligamentum longitudinale posterius and ligamenta flava, leading to the fusion of adjacent vertebral bodies. Objective:…
Bioarchaeological analysis of skeletal remains from Early Modern Period (Rad, Slovakia)
Background: The archaeological excavation was conducted within the current parish garden of the Roman Catholic rectory in the northeastern part of the village of Rad (Trebisov district, Slovakia), located in the southern part of the Eastern Slovak Lowland. A Minorite monastery stood at this site from 1637 to 1767. A total of sixteen individuals were exhumed, all dating back to the 16th–18th centuries. Objective: The aim of the anthropological ana…
Exploring the factors shaping business students’ environmental concern
Purpose Increasing the need for education for sustainable development in universities requires an understanding of the predictors of students’ environmental concern (EC). In this paper, the authors focus on the EC of business students because of their future responsibility for business operations regarding the exploitation of natural resources. The aim of the study is to examine the predictors of business students’ environmental concern. Design/m…
Human Skeletal Remains from the Exterior of the Zápoľský Chapel in Spišský Štvrtok
During the restoration of the Zápoľský Chapel in the village of Spišský Štvrtok, eastern Slovakia, archaeological excavation uncovered ten incomplete graves as well as 1024 bone fragments that were found in a frame of a surface survey in the Chapel’s exterior. The skeletal remains can be according to the excavated artifacts dated approximately to the 17th–18th century, which is a period when the church, the chapel and the monastery in Spišský Štv…

Anthropological analysis of skeletal remains from the site Vyšná Myšľa - Koscelek
century. A total of 53 individuals were examined, in whom the age at death, sex and stature were morphoscopically and metric estimated by standard anthropological methods, and the presence of non-metric traits and pathological conditions was also recorded. The analysed group consisted of 40 adults and 4 adolescents, of which 16 were women and 2 possible females, 19 men and one probable male individual, three individuals of inconclusive sex and si…
Cardiometabolic risk assessment in Eastern Slovak young adults using anthropometric indicators
Introduction: Selected anthropometric indicators, such as anthropometric measurements, indices, or ratios could be reliable predictors of future cardiometabolic risk in primary prevention, especially in young adults. Aim: This study aimed to establish cardiometabolic risk status in young Eastern Slovak adults according to anthropometric indicators. Material and methods: Indicators used in this study, such as heart rate, blood pressure, five anthr…
