本研究探讨了手的形态与腕管综合征（CTS）发生的可能性。根据神经生理学标准，选择50例女性CTS患者和50例健康女性对照者，测量其手外径。我们的研究结果显示，与对照组相比，CTS患者的手掌长度和第三指长度明显缩短，手掌宽度明显增大。回归分析表明，手比[（手掌+第三趾长）/手掌宽度]与正中神经传导测量值显着相关。手比率可以是确定CTS趋势的简单而有用的预测测量。John Wiley & Sons，Inc.肌肉神经24：1607-1611，2001
The likelihood that hand configuration is related to the development of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) was examined in this study. Based on neurophysiological criteria, 50 female subjects with CTS and 50 healthy female controls were selected and their external hand dimensions were measured. Our results showed that the palm length and third digit length were significantly shorter and the palm width larger in the subjects with CTS compared with controls. Regression analysis demonstrated that the hand ratio [(palm + third digit length)/palm width] was significantly correlated with median nerve conduction measurements. The hand ratio may be a simple and useful predictive measurement in determining the tendency for CTS. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Muscle Nerve 24: 1607–1611, 2001
