A cross-sectional study to correlate nasal profile and chin position with cephalometric lip profile.
Article in Journal of orthodontic science, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveTo determine the effect of the nose and chin on the cephalometric lip profile. METHODS AND MATERIAL: The pre-treatment lateral cephalograms of 177 adult patients with no history of orthodontic treatment were manually traced. The sample size was divided into three vertical and horizontal groups using angle ANB and MMA to assess the difference in nose and chin forms. The horizontal and vertical groups were analyzed using One-way ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis. The Independent sample
resultsAmong the nasal variables, columellar length inversely affects the linear position of the upper lip and this was statistically significant. The nasolabial angle is also affected by the inclination of the nasal base and this was statistically significant. The linear distance of the soft tissue chin in relation to the maxilla has the most effect on the position of the upper lip. It is notable that all hard and soft tissue chin variables inversely affected the linear position of the upper and lower lips.
conclusionsThe quantitative measure of the effect of the nose and chin on lips is important as it allows clinicians to determine the overall effect of adjunctive procedures at pretreatment levels. Thus, corrective procedures such as rhinoplasty or genioplasty can be done at pre-orthodontic treatment stages to create a better treatment plan for patients.
