✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Among 227 chronic renal disease patients, micrometer caliper radiogrammetric measurements of the second metacarpal at midshaft showed the right metacarpal to be larger (with greater bone area) and with a greater cortical area than the left second metacarpal, both in 208 right‐handed individuals and in 19 left‐handed individuals. This direction of asymmetry was individually characteristic of the majority of individuals, whether right‐handed, left‐handed or ambidextrous.

## Abstract Our aim was to determine the prevalence of sesamoid bones in adult black Malawians from radiographs of the hands and feet. A total of 255 radiographs from 85 men and 45 women aged 16–66 years were used: 126 of the hands and 129 of the feet. All the hand films revealed one sesamoid bone
