To test the hypotheses that mechanobehavior scores (MBS) were correlated with mandibular ramus lengths (Co-Go) and differed between facial phenotypes.
Subjects gave informed consent to participate. Co-Go (mm), mandibular plane angles (SN-GoGn, °), and three-dimensional anatomy were derived from cephalometric radiography or cone beam computed tomography. Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) energy densities (ED) (mJ/mm3) were measured using dynamic stereometry and duty factors (DF) (%) were measured from electromyography, to calculate MBS (= ED2 × DF,) for each TMJ. Polynomial regressions, K-means cluster analysis, and analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Tukey post-hoc tests were employed.
Fifty females and 23 males produced replete data. Polynomial regressions showed MBS were correlated with Co-Go (females, R2 = 0.57; males, R2 = 0.81). Cluster analysis identified three groups (P < .001). Dolichofacial subjects, with shorter normalized Co-Go, clustered into two subgroups with low and high MBS compared to brachyfacial subjects with longer Co-Go. SN-GoGn was significantly larger (P < .03) in the dolichofacial subgroups combined (33.0 ± 5.9°) compared to the brachyfacial group (29.8 ± 5.5°).
MBS correlated with Co-Go within sexes and differed significantly between brachyfacial and dolichofacial subjects.
检验以下假设,即机械行为评分(MBS)与下颌支长度(Co-Go)相关,且在面型间存在差异。
研究对象签署知情同意书后参与研究。通过头颅侧位片或锥形束 CT 获得 Co-Go(mm)、下颌平面角(SN-GoGn,°)和三维解剖结构。使用动态立体测量法测量颞下颌关节(TMJ)能量密度(ED)(mJ/mm3),从肌电图中测量功能因子(DF)(%),以计算每个 TMJ 的 MBS(= ED2 × DF)。采用多项式回归、K 均值聚类分析和方差分析(ANOVA),并使用 Tukey 事后检验进行分析。
50 名女性和 23 名男性的研究数据完整。多项式回归显示 MBS 与 Co-Go 相关(女性,R2 = 0.57;男性,R2 = 0.81)。聚类分析确定了三个组(P <.001)。与 Co-Go 较长的短面型相比,下颌支长度较短的长面型患者聚类为低 MBS 和高 MBS 两组。Dolichofacial 组的 SN-GoGn 显著更大(P <.03)(33.0 ± 5.9°),与 brachyfacial 组(29.8 ± 5.5°)相比。
MBS 在性别内与 Co-Go 相关,且在短面型和长面型患者间存在显著差异。
