头影测量X线片的软组织轮廓分析被认为是唇腭裂（CLP）治疗结果评估的重要组成部分，并且先前已发现比传统的硬组织头影测量分析更好地区分各组。182例12-14岁的英国完全性单侧唇腭裂（UCLP）儿童的头影测量X线片可用于本研究，旨在描述这组英国儿童的头影测量软组织结果。使用Dentofacial Planner Plus（DFP）测量7个软组织轮廓角度变量。两周后重新测量了30张胶片，以评估该方法的可靠性，该方法对大多数变量都是可以接受的，尽管使用与嘴唇相关的标志会增加误差。平均鼻唇角（97.44度）、面部凸度（138.02度）和软组织ANB（2.99度）与先前报道的数据相比均不理想。这些发现支持临床标准咨询小组研究中给出的数据。头影测量X线片的软组织轮廓评估具有可接受的可靠性。与已发表的数据相比，英国的治疗结果显示不良结局。
Soft tissue profile analysis from cephalometric radiographs is recognized as an important part of the assessment of treatment outcome in cleft lip and palate (CLP), and has previously been found to discriminate between groups better than conventional hard tissue cephalometric analysis. Cephalometric radiographs of 182 12-14-year-old children from the UK with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) were available for this investigation, which aimed to describe the cephalometric soft tissue findings for this group of UK children. Seven soft tissue profile angular variables were measured using Dentofacial Planner Plus (DFP). Thirty films were re-measured two weeks later to assess the reliability of the method, which was acceptable for most of the variables, although use of landmarks related to the lips increased error. Mean nasolabial angle (97.44 degrees), facial convexity (138.02 degrees), and soft tissue ANB (2.99 degrees) compared unfavourably with previously reported data. These findings support the data given in the Clinical Standards Advisory Group study. Soft tissue profile assessment from cephalometric radiographs has acceptable reliability. The results of treatment show poor outcome in the UK compared with published data.
