Ten craniofacial measurements (three angles relating to jaw position and seven ratios describing proportions of the face) were examined for interactions between OSA status and sex or ethnicity) using factorial analysis of variance. Results: A total of 363 subjects (25% female) were included (n = 200 Chinese, n = 163 Caucasian), of which 33% were controls. There were two-way interactions for OSA with both sex (mandibular plane angle [F = 7.0, P = .009], face / eye width ratio [F = 4.7, P = .032], maxillary / mandibular volume ratio [F = 9.2, P = .003]) and ethnicity (face / nose width ratio [F = 4.0, P = .045], mandibular width / length ratio [F = 5.1, P = .024], maxillary / mandibular volume ratio [F = 11.0, P = .001]). Conclusions: We provide evidence of ethnic and sex differences in facial phenotype related to OSA. Furthermore, we demonstrate that craniofacial photography can be used as a phenotypic tool to assess these differences and allow investigation of OSA phenotypes in large samples. This has relevance to personalizing OSA recognition strategies across different populations.]]> Tue 13 Sep 2022 15:21:44 AEST ]]> Craniofacial phenotyping for prediction of obstructive sleep apnoea in a Chinese population https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:29611 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:32:05 AEDT ]]>
