  • Ultrasound-based skeletal age and its association with physical performance in Slovak youth ice hockey players: A preliminary study

    Open Access•Petra Švábová, Lucia Bundova et al.•ARTICLE•Anthropologiai Közlemények•2026

    Background: Biological maturation is an important factor influencing physical performance in youth athletes. Differences between chronological and skeletal age may contribute to variability in strength, speed, and overall athletic performance. Assessing skeletal age using non-invasive methods may provide valuable insights for sports practice. Objective: This preliminary study aimed to evaluate differences between chronological and skeletal age an…

  • Footprint morphometry in stature estimation of subadults: Anthropological and forensic implications

    Open Access•Saumya Seal, Michal Soták et al.•ARTICLE•Anthropologiai Közlemények•2026

    Background: Footprint morphometry offers a promising approach for biological profiling in forensic anthropology, in situations where podiatric traces are more likely to be recovered than skeletal or genetic evidence. Studies exist on young adults and older populations till date, but research specifically on juvenile (or subadult) populations remains limited. Objectives: This study is a preliminary attempt to investigate how static footprint dimen…

  • Sex Estimation using Footprint Ridge Density – A Mini Review

    Open Access•Saumya Seal, Michal Soták et al.•ARTICLE•Anthropological Review•2026

    INTRODUCTION The epidermal level of human footprint possesses raised ridges and furrows, which form unique patterns. Ridge density quantification, involving counting the ridges within a predefined unit area, emphasizes variability due to differences in epidermal ridge thickness. Analyses of these ridges exhibit sex-based differences, making it important for forensic identification purposes. STUDY AIM The present mini review was conducted to showc…

  • The evaluation of latent fingerprints exposed to different snow conditions and their usability in forensics

    Open Access•Michal Soták, Mária Chovancová et al.•ARTICLE•Forensic Sciences Research•2025•References: 26

    Second level dactyloscopic markants (minutiae) are irregularities in the course of the friction ridge skin used for personal identification because of their high variability. Individual uniqueness is affected by the high number of minutiae and their random distribution within the friction ridge skin. The combination of various environmental factors, eg, snow, soil environment, and direct sunlight, can affect the quality of fingerprints. The aim o…
