The nose is a pyramidal shaped structure situated in the midline of midface being attached to the facial skeleton. The shape, size and spatial location of the nose-philtrum-upper lip complex are important from aesthetic point of view. Hence, to study the nasal parameters, shape of nostril and philtrum among the undergraduate students remained as the main aim of this study.
This was a cross-sectional study enrolling 250 students of age 18-25 years. Nasal height, nasal width was measured and the shape of the nostrils and philtrum was recorded separately for each participant.
Out of 250 participants 113 were males and 137 were females. The mean nasal index of male was 75.36 while that of female was 71.72 suggesting that both genders had mesorrhine nasal type. The rectangular shaped nostrils and triangular type of philtrum was the most common types found in the study Conclusions: The study concluded that, the nasal index was mesorrhine type, the nostril was rectangular and the philtrum column was triangular in this study population.
鼻子是位于面中部中线的金字塔形结构，与面部骨骼相连。从美学角度来看，鼻-人中-上唇复合体的形状、大小和空间位置很重要。因此，研究本科生的鼻部参数、鼻孔形状和人中形状是本研究的主要目的。
这是一项横断面研究，纳入了250名年龄在18至25岁之间的学生。测量了鼻高、鼻宽，并分别记录了每位参与者的鼻孔形状和人中形状。
250名参与者中，113名是男性，137名是女性。男性的平均鼻指数为75.36，而女性为71.72，表明两性均为中鼻型。在该研究中，长方形鼻孔和三角形人中是最常见的类型。结论：该研究得出结论，在该研究人群中，鼻指数为中鼻型，鼻孔为长方形，人中柱为三角形。
