103 Correlations of palatal surface area with anthropometric dimensions Table 2: The median and interquartile range (IQR) of anthropometric measurements (in mm) and the palatal surface area (mm2) for the total study sample and stratified according to sex. N indicates the number of participants in each group. The p-value of Mann-Whitney U test is shown. The ICC indicates the degree of agreement between the two independent measurements. Anthropometric measurements (mm) ICC Total (N=51) Median ± IQR Female (N=23 Median ± IQR Male (N=28) Median ± IQR P-value female vs. male Length of head 0.95 241.2 ± 230.1-245.6 230.1 ± 224.4-239.8 244.8 ± 240.1-249.6 <0.001 Width of head 0.98 147.3 ± 141.9-154.3 141.9 ± 140.0-145.7 153.0 ± 147.1-158.2 <0.001 Depth of head 0.99 198.4 ± 193.4-203.4 194.1 ± 189.9-198.3 201.3 ± 197.8-207.4 0.002 Face height 0.97 124.8 ± 115.0-129.7 115.0 ± 107.6-122.6 128.4 ± 124.9-131.6 <0.001 Upper face height 0.98 79.7 ± 76.5-84.6 78.4 ± 75.5-80.1 83.1 ± 78.7-86.1 0.003 Lower face height 0.94 62.1 ± 57.0-68.1 57.2 ± 53.2-63.1 67.4 ± 60.3-69.4 0.001 Nose height 0.99 58.6 ± 54.6-61.5 57.6 ± 53.0-59.0 60.0 ± 56.2-63.1 0.016 Width of mouth 0.98 48.8 ± 45.4-53.2 48.3 ± 45.4-50.7 49.8 ± 45.7-54.0 0.219 Upper lip height 0.99 20.8 ± 19.6-23.9 20.2 ± 17.8-22.0 22.6 ± 20.6-25.2 0.004 Mandible height 0.98 41.5 ± 35.0-44.7 36.2 ± 32.7-41.7 43.6 ± 39.5-45.1 <0.001 Mandibular length 0.85 144.2 ± 141.4-149.3 141.5 ± 133.2-144.7 144.3 ± 143.6-151.9 <0.001 Palatal width 0.97 42.8 ± 40.0-45.7 42.4 ± 39.5-45.7 42.8 ± 41.3-46.0 0.374 Surface area (mm2) Palatal 0.96 2120.6 ± 1976.3-2232.0 2087.5 ± 1881.9-2184.2 2165.3 ± 2023.0-2257.3 0.069 5
