UNASSIGNED: In this retrospective study, CBCT images of 30 non-syndromic UCLP patients were included, along with 30 age- and sex-matched control individuals. ZMC symmetry was evaluated in the axial section by comparing the right and left sides. Similarly, symmetry in the IFR was assessed in the coronal section. The significance level was set at p<0.05 for statistical analysis.
UNASSIGNED: The study group comprised 12 female and 18 male patients, with ages ranging from 10 to 18 years (mean age 14.1 years). Both ZMC and IFR measurements were significantly lower on the cleft sides of the study group compared to both the non-cleft sides of UCLP patients and the control group (p<0.001, p=0.022, and p=0.036, respectively). Furthermore, IFR measurements were significantly lower in the control group compared to the non-cleft sides of the study group (p=0.04).
UNASSIGNED: This study demonstrated that individuals with UCLP exhibit asymmetry in both the ZMC and the IFR. These findings suggest a negative impact on facial aesthetics.
■在这项回顾性研究中,纳入了30例非综合征性UCLP患者的CBCT图像,以及30名年龄和性别匹配的对照个体。通过比较右侧和左侧在轴向截面中评估ZMC对称性。同样,在冠状部分评估了IFR的对称性。统计学分析的显著性水平设定为p<0.05。
■研究组包括12名女性和18名男性患者,年龄从10到18岁(平均年龄14.1岁)。与UCLP患者和对照组的非裂隙侧相比,研究组的裂隙侧的ZMC和IFR测量值均显着降低(分别为p<0.001,p=0.022和p=0.036)。此外,与研究组的非裂隙侧相比,对照组的IFR测量值明显较低(p=0.04)。
■这项研究表明,患有UCLP的个体在ZMC和IFR中均表现出不对称性。这些发现表明对面部美学有负面影响。
