Abstract

Craniofacial phenotyping methods are pivotal in understanding and diagnosing pediatric obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, the lack of standardized methods often leads to inconsistencies, hindering the reliability and validity of quantitative analyses in this field. This systematic review aims to evaluate existing craniofacial phenotyping methodologies and their key parameters to propose standardization measures to enhance the reliability and validity of future quantitative analyses on this topic. A comprehensive search of electronic databases was conducted following PRISMA guidelines, resulting in the inclusion of 13 studies. Data extraction focused on the types of phenotyping methods and the parameters or measurements used. Our findings revealed a variation in the phenotyping techniques and a wide array of parameters used across studies, highlighting the need for standardization. The authors proposed a framework of parameters for future evaluation of craniofacial morphologies of pediatric OSA. By standardizing the assessment of these craniofacial morphologies, future research efforts can ensure consistency, facilitating more reliable and valid quantitative analyses in this critical area of study.

儿童阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停颅面表型的系统评价:方法标准化的途径。
颅面表型方法是关键的理解和诊断儿童阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停(OSA)。然而,缺乏标准化的方法往往导致不一致,阻碍了该领域定量分析的可靠性和有效性。本系统综述旨在评估现有颅面表型方法及其关键参数,提出标准化措施,以提高未来定量分析的信度和效度。按照PRISMA准则对电子数据库进行了全面检索,结果纳入了13项研究。数据提取侧重于表型方法的类型和使用的参数或测量。我们的研究结果揭示了表型技术的差异和研究中使用的各种参数,强调了标准化的必要性。作者提出了一个参数框架,用于未来评估儿童OSA的颅面形态。通过标准化这些颅面形态的评估,未来的研究工作可以确保一致性,促进在这一关键研究领域进行更可靠和有效的定量分析。
