Article Synopsis
- The study conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the impact of folic acid supplementation during pregnancy on reducing the risk of orofacial clefts in infants.
- After reviewing over 1600 articles, 37 studies (6 cohort and 31 case-control) were included, revealing a significant reduction in the risk of cleft lip and palate (CL/P) and cleft palate only (CPO) with folic acid intake.
- The findings suggest that women planning to become pregnant should take multivitamins, particularly during early pregnancy, to help lower the chances of having a baby with these conditions.
Objective: Age estimation in adults is an important issue in forensic science. This study aimed to estimate the chronological age of Iranians by means of pulp/tooth area ratio (AR) of canines in digital panoramic radiographs.
Materials And Methods: The sample consisted of panoramic radiographs of 271 male and female subjects aged 16-64 years.
Introduction: Craniofacial anthropometric studies measure the differences in humans' craniofacial dimensions. The aim of this study was to determine facial anthropometric dimensions of newborn to 12-year-old girls with nonsyndromic unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP).
Methods: In this cross-sectional analytical study, data was collected from 65 infant to 12-year old girls with UCLP.
Purpose: This study investigated the effectiveness of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) for treating neurosensory impairment after bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO).
Materials And Methods: This randomized, double-blinded, split-mouth trial included patients requiring BSSO. After surgery, 1 side of each patient was randomly assigned to laser therapy and the other side served as the control.
