Nose shape, size, and inclination influence facial appearance, but few studies concern the relationship between the nasal profile and craniofacial structures. The objective of this study was to analyze association of nasal cephalometric variables with skeletal structures, age, and sex. Cephalometric and nasal analysis was performed in 386 Polish orthodontic patients (aged 9-25 years). Student -test and Mann-Whitney test were used to compare quantitative variables and Pearson's or Spearman's correlation coefficients-to find correlations. Soft tissue facial convexity angle correlates to Holdaway ratio, ANB (A-Nasion-B), and Wits appraisal. Nasal dorsum axis, nose length, nose depth (1) and nose depth (2), nose hump, lower dorsum convexity, and columella convexity increase with age. Nasal base angle, nasolabial angle, nasomental angle, soft tissue facial convexity and nasal bone angle decrease with age. Nasal base angle and nasomental angle are smaller in females. Thus, a relationship exists between nasal morphology and sagittal jaw configuration. Nasal parameters significantly change with age. Sexual dimorphism characterizes nasal bone angle and nasomental angle.
鼻型、大小和倾斜度会影响面部外观，但很少有研究关注鼻轮廓与颅面结构之间的关系。本研究旨在分析鼻的头影测量学变量与骨骼结构、年龄和性别的关系。对 386 名波兰正畸患者（年龄 9-25 岁）进行了头影测量和鼻分析。采用 Student's t 检验和 Mann-Whitney 检验比较定量变量，采用 Pearson 或 Spearman 相关系数来寻找相关性。软组织面凸角与 Holdaway 比、ANB（A-鼻根点-B）和 Wits 评价相关。鼻背轴、鼻长、鼻深（1）和鼻深（2）、鼻梁突出度、下鼻背凸度和鼻中隔凸度随年龄增长而增加。鼻底角、鼻唇角、鼻颏角、软组织面凸度和鼻骨角随年龄增长而减小。女性的鼻底角和鼻颏角较小。因此，鼻形态与矢状颌骨结构之间存在关系。鼻参数随年龄显著变化。性别二态性表现在鼻骨角和鼻颏角上。
