The objective of this study was to relate demographic variables and craniometric measures with measurements of the superior sagittal sinus (SSS) at different points along the path of the SSS. The findings were then discussed with regards to theories of skull growth.
We studied 33 skulls with known demographic characteristics and measured various craniometric parameters and distances related to the specific dimensions of the SSS. These data were statistically analyzed, and the results are presented.
Of the 33 cadaver samples, 16 were female and 17 were male, aged between 28 and 87 years at the time of death. The cross-sectional area of the SSS measured at the coronary suture was positively correlated with the biauricular length. In addition, when measured 1.5 cm above the torcula, the cross-sectional area of the SSS was negatively correlated with the distance between the medial epicanthi.
The relationships found may indicate that the growth of the SSS is proportional to the activity of each segment of the SSS that occurs along its path.
本研究的目的是将人口统计学变量和颅骨测量指标与上矢状窦（SSS）沿其走行不同点的测量值相关联。然后根据颅骨生长理论对研究结果进行讨论。
我们研究了33个具有已知人口统计学特征的颅骨，并测量了与SSS特定尺寸相关的各种颅骨测量参数和距离。对这些数据进行了统计分析，并给出了结果。
在33个尸体样本中，16例为女性，17例为男性，死亡时年龄在28至87岁之间。在冠状缝处测量的SSS横截面积与两耳间长度呈正相关。此外，在窦汇上方1.5 cm处测量时，SSS横截面积与内眦间距呈负相关。
所发现的关系可能表明，SSS的生长与其沿走行各段的活动成比例。
