To obtain a mathematical equation that could estimate the length of the intermembranous part of the vocal fold as a function of body height and gender, we removed the larynges from 39 cadavers (22 men and 17 women) after recording the subject's height, age, and cause of death. The dimensions of the vocal folds were determined with a digital pachymeter. The following equations were obtained: y = 0.18x - 15.8 for men and y = 0.24x - 28.1 for women, where y is the length of the intermembranous part of the vocal folds in millimeters and x is the height of the individual in centimeters. We conclude that it is possible to estimate the normal expected length of the intermembranous portion of the male and female vocal folds on the basis of body height.
为了获得一个能根据身高和性别估算声带膜间部分长度的数学方程，我们在记录了受试者的身高、年龄和死因后，从39具尸体（22名男性和17名女性）上取下喉部。用数字测厚仪测定声带的尺寸。得到了以下方程：男性为y = 0.18x - 15.8，女性为y = 0.24x - 28.1，其中y是以毫米为单位的声带膜间部分的长度，x是以厘米为单位的个体身高。我们得出结论，根据身高可以估算出男性和女性声带膜间部分的正常预期长度。
