Abstract

Cleft uvula occurs in approximately 20% of Athabaskan Indians. The association of cleft uvula with otitis media was examined in a cohort of 175 Apache Indian children followed up prospectively from birth. No association was found between the occurrence of cleft uvula and the rate, frequency, or timing of otitis media attacks.

摘要

悬雍垂裂在约20%的阿萨巴斯卡印第安人中出现。在一个由175名阿帕奇印第安儿童组成的队列中，对悬雍垂裂与中耳炎的关联进行了前瞻性研究，这些儿童从出生起就接受随访。未发现悬雍垂裂的发生与中耳炎发作的发生率、频率或时间之间存在关联。
