Abstract

A study was undertaken in the male population of some north Indian districts to know the incidence of skeletal deformities. All the candidates presenting over a period of one and a half years for enrollment in the defence forces at a defence enrollment centre were subjected to medical examination. Persons who had or were suspected of having disabilities were referred to the concerned specialist for confirmation of the disability. All those persons whose disability was adjudged by the concerned specialist as being within permissible limits were taken as fit and the others whose disabilities were beyond permissible limits were taken as unfit. The results were compared with similar studies and discussed.
