BACKGROUND
The purpose of the present study was to determine the dimorphic potential of the frontal sinus (FS) index, area, and the combination of both variables to ascertain its accuracy in sex discrimination among Bosnian, Chinese, and Nepalese.
METHODS
A retrospective study analyzed the digital standardized lateral cephalometric of 654 Bosnian, Chinese, and Nepalese adult patients (116 females, 102 males; age range 17-40 years). The following FS parameters were analyzed: The maximum height, width, and area of the FS, and the ratio of height and width was calculated as the FS index. The measurements were analyzed using logistic regression analysis for the FS index, area, and combined FS index and area.
RESULTS
Statistically significant differences were observed between the mean values of the FS index and the area between females and males in each population. The highest frequency of bilateral absence of FS was detected among females, specifically in Chinese (6.6%). Logistic regression equation derived from the present study differentiated between sexes with higher classification percentages for the FS index and area with 62.4%, 75.2%, and 78.4% among Bosnian, Chinese, and Nepalese subjects, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS
The results of the present study highlight the implications of the combined FS index and area as a reliable approach in sex estimation in forensic science whenever both the FS structure and lateral cephalometric are available.
背景
本研究旨在确定额窦（FS）指数、面积的二态性潜力，并结合这两个变量，以确定其在对波斯尼亚、中国和尼泊尔人群进行性别鉴别中的准确性。
方法
回顾性研究分析了 654 名波斯尼亚、中国和尼泊尔成年患者（女性 116 名，男性 102 名；年龄 17-40 岁）的数字化标准侧位头颅侧位片。分析了以下 FS 参数：FS 的最大高度、宽度和面积，以及高度与宽度的比值计算为 FS 指数。使用逻辑回归分析 FS 指数、面积以及 FS 指数和面积的组合进行测量分析。
结果
在每个群体中，女性和男性的 FS 指数和面积的平均值之间均观察到统计学显著差异。在女性中，特别是在中国（6.6%），双侧 FS 缺失的发生率最高。本研究得出的逻辑回归方程能够区分性别，FS 指数和面积的分类百分比更高，分别为波斯尼亚、中国和尼泊尔受试者的 62.4%、75.2%和 78.4%。
结论
本研究结果强调了 FS 指数和面积的组合作为一种可靠的方法，在 FS 结构和侧位头颅侧位片都可用的情况下，在法医科学中的性别估计中具有重要意义。
