Anthropometric Study of Carrying Angle on Bangladeshi Garo People.

2016 
: The present study was designed to construct an anthropometric data of 20-40 years aged 104 Bangladeshi Garo people (60 male and 44 female) regarding carrying angle and an attempt has been made out to grow interest among the researchers for future study and also to compare the data with the data of the people of other races. Participants were selected through purposive sampling for this cross sectional, observational, descriptive and analytic type study which was carried out in different areas of Mymensingh district (Haluaghat, Mymensingh Sadar), Bangladesh from July 2015 to June 2016. The carrying angles of both side were measured by goniometer. Data were tabulated and statistically analyzed using Microsoft excel and SPSS software. Carrying angle was found to be higher in males but angle of inclination was higher in females. Comparison of differences of means between male and female was statistically significant. The results of present study would be useful for Anthropologist and Forensic Medicine experts.
