A recent study conducted at Yerevan State Medical University in Armenia explored the relationship between cephalometric measurements and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in children. The study included 39 children with OSA symptoms and found that certain craniofacial measurements were associated with OSA. Specifically, an anterior position of the upper jaw, posterior position of the lower jaw, and narrowing of the nasal passages were observed in children with pediatric OSA. The researchers concluded that systematic orthodontic monitoring is important for the diagnosis and timely treatment of pediatric OSA. [Extracted from the article] |
