RESUMO

Background: The hand skeletal features of children and adolescents at different growth statuses and development periods, and the correlation between these skeletal features and hand asymmetric force are currently unclear. Thus, this study sought to investigate the hand skeletal features of children and adolescents at different growth statuses and at different periods of development, and the correlation between these skeletal features and asymmetric force in hands. Methods: A retrospective study was performed on subjects aged 4-20 years with good growth status (group A) or short stature (group B). Additional subjects aged 4-20, 21-40, and >40 years were enrolled in groups C, D, and E, respectively. All the subjects underwent left-hand posteroanterior X-ray radiography. Brachymesophalangia-V (BMP-V), conical epiphysis, epiphysis/metaphysis symmetry of the proximal phalanx (ESP), and the angle of the metacarpal-phalangeal axis were analyzed. Results: Of the 654 children and teenagers aged 4-20 years (median: 11 years) enrolled in the study, 432 were allocated to group A, of whom 237 (54.9%) were male and 195 (45.1%) were female, and 222 matched cases were allocated to group B, of whom 112 (50.5%) were male and 110 (49.5%) were female. The first to third ESPs were significantly (P<0.05) greater in group A than in group B, while the first to third angles of the metacarpal-phalangeal axis were significantly (P<0.05) smaller in group A than in group B. The correlation analysis revealed a highly significant (P<0.01) negative correlation between the ESP and angle of the metacarpal-phalangeal axis (r=-0.948, -0.926, -0.940, -0.885, and -0.848, respectively). The incidence of BMP-V was 15.4% in all patients, while that of conical epiphysis was 19.5%. The incidence of BMP-V and conical epiphysis was significantly (P<0.05) smaller in group A than in group B (11.1% vs. 23.8% for BMP-V and 16.6% vs. 25.2% for conical epiphysis, respectively). Additionally, 216 subjects were enrolled in group C (108 male and 108 female), 185 subjects were enrolled in in group D (93 male and 92 female), and 176 subjects were enrolled in in group E (104 male and 72 female). The second to fifth ESPs in group C were significantly (P<0.05) smaller than those in both groups D and E, while the second to fifth angles of the metacarpal-phalangeal axis were significantly (P<0.05) larger in group C than in both groups D and E. A BMP-V was present in 35 (16.2%) patients in group C, 8 (4.3%) in group D, and 2 (1.1%) in group E, and the difference among the three groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions: The epiphyseal symmetry of the proximal phalanges is poor in short stature children and adolescents, and the angle between the metacarpal and phalangeal axes is larger in children and adolescents with short stature than those with normal height and good growth status. A negative correlation was found between the epiphyseal symmetry of the proximal phalanges and asymmetrical stress.
