Published: July 2023

Inquiry skills are one of the skills that students need to master in learning biological concepts. Inquiry skills are influenced by many factors, one of which is the lesson plan. This study aims to examine the effect of inquiry lab and STEM models on inquiry skills progression. The research design used was a quasi-experiment non-randomized control group, pretest-posttest design, with three treatments, namely discovery learning lesson plan as control (C), inquiry lab lesson plan (E1) and STEM lesson plan (E2) as treatment. The three classes were randomly selected from six classes XI of Science. All students in the selected class became the research sample (N = 98), with details. The control class consisted of 33 students, E1 32 students, and E2 33 students. The material taught in all classes is the human respiratory system. Data in inquiry skills progression is measured before and after treatment. The instrument takes the form of an essay test. Data analysis using ANCOVA (p = 0.05%). The results showed that the inquiry lab and STEM models had a significant effect, and the inquiry lab model had the best effect.
El control del cibercrimen. Análisis exploratorio de sentencias y medidas de supervisión
Authors:   Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, Estados Unidos de América, Toro-Álvarez Marlon Mike
Published: July 2023

El proceso de judicialización y sentencia de los individuos que han violentado la ley tiene en cuenta diferentes factores entre los que se encuentran las pautas de sentencia las cuales brindan una guía para que los jueces orienten sus decisiones durante el proceso penal. Sin embargo, la variedad de delitos y la evolución del cibercrimen requieren que esos criterios se apliquen de manera diferente, especialmente cuando nuevas tecnologías son involucradas. En el caso de los delitos cibernéticos que involucran material de abuso sexual infantil (MASI) esos criterios pueden distar de las pautas que aplican para el resto de las formas de cibercrimen. Por tal razón el presente estudio analizó 14 casos documentados en la legislación estadounidense con el fin de caracterizar las diferencias en las aplicaciones de las sentencias e indagar en las formas de supervisión para cibercriminales bajo libertad condicional. Finalmente, el presente estudio invita a reflexionar sobre los desafíos que plantean los avances tecnológicos en el control del delito y la necesidad de medidas proactivas para mejorar la respuesta de las instituciones en la contención e investigación de los delitos cibernéticos que involucran MASI.
How People React to Suicidal Ideation:The Effect of Suicide Literacy, Stigma, and Expressive Suppression
Authors: Lee Dr. Hannah , An Prof. Soontae , Lee Jiyoon
Published: August 2023

Introduction: The purpose of this study is to understand the role of
suicide literacy and suicide stigma in laypeople’s intention to
recommend professional help in Korea. Additionally, the study focuses on
the role of expressive suppression as a sociocultural factor. Methods:
Participants read vignettes depicting either subclinical distress or
suicidal ideation and answered questions measuring suicide literacy,
stigma, and expressive suppression. Mediated moderation analyses were
used to examine the interactions between these factors. Results: The
result found the significant effect of emotional suppression. The
mediating effect of suicide stigma on the relationship between suicide
literacy and recommendation of professional help was significant for
those who do not suppress their emotions. This result indicates that
when individuals were not hesitant to express negative emotions, high
suicide literacy lowered suicide stigma and led to more willingness to
recommend professional help. Conclusions: The results showed that
emotional suppression acts as a barrier deterring Koreans from
professional help for their mental health. The findings underscore the
importance of sociocultural factors such as emotional suppression in
developing suicide prevention strategies.
Observing the SO2 and Sulphate Aerosol Plumes from the 2022 Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai Eruption with IASI
Authors: Sellitto Pasquale , Siddans Richard , Belhadji Redha , Carboni Elisa , Legras Bernard , Podglajen Aurélien , Duchamp Clair , Kerridge Brian
Published: August 2023

The Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano violently erupted on 15 January
2022, producing the largest perturbation of the stratospheric aerosol
layer since Pinatubo 1991, despite the estimated modest injection of
SO2. Here we present novel SO2 and sulphate aerosol (SA) co-retrievals
from the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Instrument, and use them to study
the dispersion of the Hunga Tonga plume over the entire year 2022. We
observe rapid conversion of SO2 (e-folding time: 17.1±0.6 days) to
sulphate aerosols (SA), with an initial injected burden of
>1.0 Tg. This points at larger SO2 injections than
previously thought. A long-lasting SA plume was observed, with a
meridional dispersion of marked anomalies from the tropics to the higher
southern hemispheric latitudes. A very small SA removal is observed
after 1-year dispersion. The total SA mass burden was estimated at 1.6 ±
0.1 Tg in total column, with a build-up e-folding time of about 2
months.
Firm Responses to Nonprescriptive Pollution Regulation: Evidence from China’s Corporate Social Responsibility Reporting Mandate
Authors: Gramlich Jeffrey , Huang Li
Published: August 2023

We employ China’s mandatory corporate social responsibility (CSR) reporting requirement as a natural experiment to evaluate firm-level responses to a Chinese rule that required public firms to issue CSR reports beginning in 2009. Our difference-in-differences analyses of firm-level data indicate that firms required to issue CSR reports decreased overall pollution levels after the mandate. Conventional wisdom (the “Traditional View”) argues that pollution reductions cannot be achieved without profit sacrifice. Conversely, under the Porter Hypothesis, non-prescriptive regulations can stimulate innovations that improve process efficiency and lead to both pollution reductions and improved long-term shareholder returns. Our results reveal evidence of reduced asset returns among firms required to issue CSR reports after 2008, consistent with both hypotheses. However, consistent with the Porter Hypothesis and not the Traditional View, positive three-day stock returns surrounding the release of CSR report information suggest that shareholders favorably view the overall long-term effects of required CSR reports.
Technology, Ethics, and the Pandemic: Responses from Key Accounting Actors
Authors: Boulianne Emilio , Lecompte Annie , Fortin Mélissa
Published: August 2023

A pandemic is an exceptional context involving radical disruptions for organizations and society. Ethical considerations evolve among individuals and organizations, and the way technology is used is an important factor in this evolution. We explore how key actors in the accounting space—namely, the Big 4 firms, the professional accounting associations, and the audit regulators—responded to the conjunction of the pandemic, ethics, and technology. We contextualize our documentation analysis referring to the ETHOs framework, which integrates ethics and technology. Findings suggest that ethics and technology are significant for the professional accounting associations and the audit regulators during the pandemic. In contrast, the Big 4 appear to overlook this importance, focusing instead on gains to be obtained from technology, applying a commercial logic above a professional logic. Our study underscores the importance of considering ethics in the future design and utilization of technology to maintain trust in the accounting profession.

The Adverse Effects of the “Anticipation of Racial Discrimination” on Auditors Who Are Black, Indigenous, or People of Color (BIPOC): An Exploratory Study with Research Propositions
Authors: Raddatz Nirmalee I. , Raddatz Paul A. , Sorensen Kate , Ogunade Kehinde
Published: August 2023

SYNOPSIS

Despite considerable investment in recruiting BIPOC auditors, underrepresentation persists within the profession. Gaining insight into the experiences and challenges faced by BIPOC auditors is essential for identifying and addressing barriers to inclusion. This study investigates the potential impact of anticipated discrimination on BIPOC auditors, focusing on coping mechanisms such as code-switching and its subsequent influence on work exhaustion and withdrawal. Our conceptual model includes six propositions, including the positive association between the anticipation of discrimination and the loss of psychological safety and the mediating effect of code-switching on work withdrawal and exhaustion. These propositions underscore the importance of cultivating inclusive work environments for minority auditors within auditing firms. Consequently, future research should explore the factors contributing to underrepresentation and potential interventions to foster diversity and inclusion. We anticipate that this research will serve as a valuable resource for practitioners, accounting academics, and educators alike.

The Economic Impact of Interim CEOs: The Case of Tax Avoidance
Authors: Wang Yangmei , Cook Kirsten A. , Ma Tao
Published: August 2023

As interim CEO appointments are common in CEO successions, we examine these temporary executives’ economic impact on their firms. Specifically, we explore how interim CEOs affect corporate tax avoidance. We match each “interim CEO firm” (test firms) with a “direct-succession CEO firm” (control firms) and find that test firms report significantly and economically lower tax avoidance. We also find that test firms’ pre-tax earnings are similar to those of control firms, but their after-tax earnings are significantly lower. Further, we find that this lower tax avoidance holds only when interim appointees have low equity compensation, are not named as permanent/successor CEOs, and have no CFO background. Our paper opens the door for future investigation of the economic impact of interim CEOs, which has been under-investigated by prior studies.
Voluntary Gender Diversity Targets and Their Impact on Firm Performance and Firm Value
Authors: Marques Ana , Pascaru Olga
Published: August 2023

Regulators in the United Kingdom recommend that 33 percent of board members of large U.K. firms be female by 2020. We use this setting to investigate whether greater female representation and any associated financial benefits can be achieved without establishing quotas. Using data between 2012 and 2018 for the Financial Times Stock Exchange (FTSE) 350 firms, we find a significant increase in female representation on boards in recent years, and the rate of increase in gender diversity is higher in these years. Our results also indicate that board gender diversity is positively associated with both financial performance and firm value. However, this association exists only in recent years. Finally, capital market participants value nonexecutive female board members more than executive female board members.

When Executives Pledge Integrity: The Effect of the Accountant’s Oath on Firms’ Financial Reporting
Authors: Heese Jonas , Pérez-Cavazos Gerardo , Peter Caspar David
Published: August 2023

We study the effect of executives’ pledges of integrity on firms’ financial reporting outcomes by exploiting a 2016 regulation that requires holders of Dutch professional accounting degrees to pledge an integrity oath. We identify chief executive officers (CEOs) and chief financial officers (CFOs) required to take the integrity oath and find that firms reduce income-increasing discretionary accruals after executives took the oath. These firms also reduce discretionary expenditures, indicating that oath-taking executives reduce overall earnings management and do not merely substitute accruals-based with real-activities earnings management. These effects are concentrated in firms where the CFO took the oath. Overall, our results indicate that integrity oaths for executives improve firms’ financial reporting quality.

Authors:   Lviv Polytechnic National University, Labay Volodymyr , Andreiko Kyrylo
Published: August 2023

Exergetic method is a universal way of thermodynamic research of various processes of energy transformation in energy technological systems, to which air conditioning system for clean room belongs. Implementation of exergetic analysis for energy technological system makes it possible to determine the influence of various elements of its system on its work and because of this to increase the effectiveness of work of energy technological system in general. Performance of any air conditioning system depends on energy effectiveness of refrigeration machine, which serves it and consumes electricity to reduce the heat of supply air which enters the room. And it means that the main purpose of selection of certain refrigeration machine for air conditioning system is to reach the maximum cooling capacity with minimum energy consumption. Innovative mathematical research model of the implemented central straight flow air conditioning system for operating clean rooms was used in this article. The aim of the model is to make computer estimation of exergetic efficiency of existing air conditioning system depending on different factors which have influence on its work, in particular the coefficient of transformation (or energy efficiency rate, EER) of its refrigeration machine. The dependence of the exergetic output-input ratio of implemented air conditioning system for operating clean rooms on coefficient of transformation of its refrigeration machine by different parameters of outdoor and indoor air and the temperature difference between the indoor and supply air were presented. It is shown that the implemented air conditioning system should be preferably used with higher coefficient of transformation of its refrigeration machine and higher difference between temperatures of indoor and supply air by various temperatures of outdoor air that will give the opportunity to gain the highest exergetic output-input ratio, which means gaining the most cost effective option for the exploitation of implemented air conditioning system.

Muhadatsah learning in class X-AKL SMK Daarut Tauhiid Boarding School is carried out through project-based learning. Students have more real learning experiences, namely by practicing muhadatsah by making video projects which will be uploaded on the YouTube channel so that it provides the benefit of the wider community as a comparison or intensive learning. The gap in this study is focused on muhadatsah learning through project-based learning where the learning process is student-centered to gain knowledge and skills in learning. This study aims to analyze how muhadatsah learning is through project-based learning starting from planning, implementation process, and evaluation. Data collection was carried out by observation, interview, and documentation methods. In this study, researchers used descriptive qualitative methods, namely research methods by describing muhadatsah learning through project-based learning. The study results showed that muhadatsah learning through project-based learning in class X-AKL of Daarut Tauhiid Boarding School Vocational School with stages or paths that students must do during learning is quite clear and structured. Success can be seen in this project-based learning, where students actively collaborate, communicate, ask questions, and express opinions. Meanwhile, the drawback is that it requires a long time and limited media for making projects. From these results, it is suggested to be more intensive in monitoring the work of students' assignments so that time can be more effective at each meeting and to ask permission for media access to student dormitory supervisors.

Speech improvement in children with cerebral palsy by "brain-computer-hand exoskeleton" neurointerface rehabilitation
Authors: Pavlenko VB , Vlasenko SV , Orekhova LS , Biryukova EA
Published: August 2023

As explained earlier, neurorehabilitation sessions involving the use of the non-invasive “brain – computer – hand exoskeleton” interface reduce hand muscle spasticity and improve motor skills in children with cerebral palsy (CP). However, the changes in the patients’ speech functions and their relationship with the upper limb mobility have not been analyzed. The study was aimed to assess the correlation between the motor and speech functions of children with CP, as well as to detect the changes in motor realization of speech production following complex treatment of patients including sessions of neurorehabilitation. The study involved children with CP aged 6–15. The index group (n = 40, 16 girls, 24 boys) received complex resort treatment with the course of neurorehabilitation, while the comparison group (n = 20, 10 girls, 10 boys) received standard resort treatment. A significant (р < 0.001) correlation between the total ABILHAND-Kids score and the indicators of speech production motor realization was revealed. In patients of the index group, complex treatment with the course of neurorehabilitation resulted in the significant (р < 0.001) decrease in hand spasticity and the increase in the total ABILHAND-Kids score and speech scores. No significant changes of these indicators were revealed in children of the comparison group. Beneficial effects of neurorehabilitation may be based on the enhanced plasticity of the neural circuits responsible for planning and execution of complex hand movements, as well as speech processes. The findings can be used to develop new methods for correction of motor and cognitive spheres in children with CP.

Existe hoje um forte apelo das pessoas em melhorar a aparência para ficar com um aspecto mais jovem. Atualmente, graças ao ozônio é possível obter um tratamento de rejuvenescimento facial eficaz. A Ozonioterapia resulta da mistura de dois gases: oxigênio (95%) e ozônio (5%) e é bioestimulador, regenerador, anti-inflamatório, melhorando o sistema imunológico, a oxigenação e estimulando colágeno, liberando os fatores de crescimento. A aplicação na região cutânea aumenta a circulação periférica e microcirculação, oxigena os tecidos e promove maior atividade dos glóbulos brancos e vermelhos, que retarda o processo de envelhecimento, acelera o processo de cicatrização, aumenta o metabolismo, etc. O ozônio gera uma resposta antioxidante, descartando as células antigas; regenera os tecidos e, quando associado à fibrina líquida, o I-PRF, estimula a produção de uma proteína fibrosa. O objetivo deste relato de caso é conciliar um estudo teórico sobre a Ozonioterapia e I-PRF para bioestimulador facial com a experiência realizada no atendimento real com o paciente. O método utilizado é qualitativo, demonstrando através deste relato de caso os efeitos transformadores da técnica em questão. Após as 3 aplicações de IPRF ozonizado, as rugas e marcas de expressão foram suavizadas; a pele melhorou o brilho e a elasticidade, mudanças que foram sentidas pela própria paciente quando relatou a sensação de maior hidratação da sua pele e que não sentiu nenhum sinal de ressecamento.

Phytoremediation of Indoor Air Pollutants: Harnessing the potential of Plants beyond Aesthetics
Authors: Shalini Jhanji  , Dhatt Ujjalpreet Kaur
Published: August 2023

Indoor air pollution has emerged as a major threat to human health worldwide that needs to be dealt urgently. The present review is an effort to overview the different indoor air pollutants (CO2, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) like formaldehyde, benzene, nitrous oxide, trichloroethylene, fluorine, ammonia, radon, aldehyde, hydrocarbons etc.) their hazardous effects on human health, potential of indoor plants in their remediation and their practical utility. Besides providing oxygen to breathe, multifaceted roles of indoor plants have been well documented. Plants were used since decades for indoor decorations based on their aesthetic value, but now studies are focused on screening plant species for their efficiency in absorption of indoor air pollutants. The basis for phytoremediation is the potent efficiency of some plants to assimilate, degrade, or modify toxic pollutants into non-toxic ones. Phytoremediation seems to be the key solution to improve indoor air quality as it has many potential advantages (simple, potentially cheap, and easily implemented) in comparison to other traditional or latest methods. Breathing walls, portable air filters for rooms or whole house filtration through heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems are some of the technologies developed, to reduce indoor air pollution and improve indoor air quality but all these are costly, resource consuming and still there is question on their efficiency. Detailed account of morphological, anatomical and molecular mechanisms underlying plant leaves and leaf associated microbes in reduction of pollutants have been reviewed that could help in developing cost effective and eco friendly remediation technologies. This review gives a brief discussion about air phytoremediation to improve effectiveness of this technology in practical use.

ABSTRACT. In results-oriented football, teams use innovative technologies to increase efficiency. One of these technologies is video analytics, and we explore its importance in Hungarian football. Our research hypotheses are based on assumptions, based on which we interviewed video analysts of NB1 teams who were given a questionnaire with different questions to answer and based on their answers we evaluated their opinion on video analytics, what advantages and disadvantages could be derived from the use of video analytics. Also, how many video analysts per team are employed by an NB1 team and to what extent video analysts cooperate with scouts to help them identify talent? In our research, 20 NB1 video analysts have completed the questionnaire so far. Statistical calculations were calculated using a one-sample Wilcoxon test and a binomial test. The video analysts' answers showed that video analysis is actively used to analyze the opponent's game. Furthermore, video analysis is also used to analyze player performance, to develop training plans and to select new players. All in all, it can be clearly concluded that the use of video analysis has more advantages than disadvantages and that video analysis plays a positive role in Hungarian NB1 football.

Especially in arid regions, developing tilapia culture with the ability to survive a wide range of salinities is crucial due to the limited availability of fresh water for aquaculture. The present study focused on evaluating the growth performance of Nile tilapia in a biofloc system under three salinity levels: 0 (BFT0), 4 (BFT4), and 8 g/L (BFT8). Fingerling fish were raised for 37 days in tanks with a water volume of 140 liters and a stocking density of one fish per liter. The results of the water quality parameters showed that dissolved oxygen and pH decreased with increasing salinity. Furthermore, the BFT8 group had the highest concentrations of settled solid (19.98 ml/L) and total suspended solid (428.37 mg/L), while the BFT8 group had the lowest TAN concentration (4.32 mg/L). The final weight and specific growth rate were significantly higher in the BFT8 and BFT4 groups compared to the BFT0 group. Survival rates were not significantly different across treatments, and all of them were higher than 97%. The protein and lipid content of Nile tilapia bodies and bioflocs decreased with increasing salinity, while the ash content increased. The highest body ash content in Nile tilapia (13.81% of dry weight) and bioflocs (31.78% dry weight) was found at 8 g/L salinity. Based on the present study, it is suggested that salinities of 4 and 8 g/L can improve water quality, growth performance, survival, and carcass composition of Nile tilapia fingerlings in the biofloc system. This finding suggests that brackish waters can be utilized for sustainable aquaculture for the rearing of Nile tilapia.

In this trial, the effects of early qualitative feed restriction and barrier perch access on some meat quality traits, growth performance, and diet cost analysis of broiler chickens were investigated. A total of 504 1-d-old male chicks (Ross 308) were randomly allocated to four treatments (qualitative feed restriction − QFR; absence-/presence+ and barrier perch − BP; absence-/presence+) with three replicate pens in a completely randomised design involving a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement of treatments. Broiler chickens in the treatment of QFR- were fed with a corn-soybean meal diet containing protein and energy at the level specified in the commercial hybrid catalogue during d 0−42. The treatment of QFR+ was fed with a corn-soybean meal diet containing lower energy (10%) and protein (20%) for the first 21 d, and then between d 22 and 42, they were fed with a diet specified in the commercial hybrid catalogue. In the treatment of BP+, the barrier perch was placed between the feeder and the drinker. Meat quality traits (pH, lightness − L*, redness − a*, yellowness − b*, chroma, hue angle, and cooking loss − CL), growth performance (body weight − BW, body weight gain − BWG, feed intake − FI, and feed conversion ratio − FCR), and diet cost analysis (total diet cost and diet cost per unit weight gain) were recorded. Except for the a* value and hue angle measured at 24-h post-slaughter, the effect of QFR treatments on meat quality traits was insignificant in all measurements. During d 0−42, in the treatments of QFR+, BW, BWG, and FI were lower (P<0.0001, and P=0.005, respectively), and FCR was worse (P=0.014). The QFR treatments did not differ significantly in dietary cost per unit weight gained during d 0−42. As a result, it can be said that early qualitative feed restriction did not significantly affect meat quality traits. The treatment of QFR+ resulted in reduced growth performance. However, diet cost per unit weight gain showed similar values in both QFR treatments (QFR+ €0.75, QFR- €0.76, P=0.511).

In this study, the antibacterial effects of postbiotics obtained from Pediococcus acidilactici, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Latilacto-bacillus sakei, which were grown in sterile cow’s milk and de man rogosa and sharpe (mrs) broth, against some food pathogens (Salmonella spp., Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli o157:h7, and Brucella melitensis) were investigated. It was observed that lactic acid bacteria postbiotics produced in mrs broth formed larger inhibition zones than those developed in cow’s milk against pathogenic bacteria. In order to investigate the antimicrobial effect of the postbiotics on chicken breast meat and to compare this effect with lactic acid decontamination, samples contaminated with Salmonella spp. and L. monocytogenes were immersed into the postbiotics of L. plan-tarum and L. sakei, 2.1% lactic acid solution, and distilled water for 10 minutes. Microbial changes in the groups were investigated during the storage at 4°c for 17 days. On the 8th day of storage, it was determined that the number of Salmonella spp. In the groups treated with postbiotics decreased by 0.9 log10 CFU/g compared to the control and distilled water groups. While the number of L. monocytogenes increased during storage in the control and distilled water groups, the postbiotics and 2.1% lactic acid exhibited a bacteriostatic effect on L. monocytogenes during storage period. Compared to the postbiotics, 2.1% lactic acid had higher reduction (1.8 log10 cfU/g) rates against Salmonella spp. (P<0.05), also a significant difference was observed against L. monocytogenes in the first and last days of storage (P<0.05). While the shelf life of chicken breast meat was determined to be 5 days in the control and distilled water groups, postbiotic treatments extended the shelf life of chicken breast meat by an extra 9 days, and 2.1% lactic acid treatment extended an extra 12 days compared to the control and distilled water treatments.
A systematic review of the association between appliance-induced labial movement of mandibular incisors and gingival recession
Authors: Aziz Tehnia , Flores-Mir Carlos
Published: August 2023

Objective: To determine if an association exists between appliance-induced labial movement of mandibular incisors and gingival recession.

Methods: Electronic databases were searched for studies with the terms: ‘incisor’, ‘incisor proclination’, ‘tooth movement’, ‘orthodontic tooth movement’, ‘gingival recession’ and ‘orthodontic appliance’. The original articles and abstracts that met the initial inclusion criteria were retrieved, and their references hand searched for possible articles missed by the database searches. Inclusion criteria included human studies that suggested a link between labial movement of lower incisors produced by orthodontic treatment and gingival recession. Exclusion criteria included significant intrusion or extrusion of the mandibular incisors, periodontal disease, subjects taking medication that affects gingival health and subjects with systematic diseases.

Results: Seven articles fulfilled the selection criteria. Gingival recession after labial movement of lower incisors was assessed on dental casts, intra-oral slides, lateral cephalograms and gingival examination. The articles were analysed to determine the impact of their treatment methodology on the outcomes.

Conclusions: No association between appliance-induced labial movement of mandibular incisors and gingival recession was found. Factors that may lead to gingival recession after orthodontic tipping and/or translation movement were identified as a reduced thickness of the free gingival margin, a narrow mandibular symphysis, inadequate plaque control and aggressive tooth brushing.

Aim: To compare the dentofacial characteristics of southern and northern Chinese adolescents.

Methods: A southern Chinese sample comprised 70 males (Mean age 12.4 ± 0.60 years) and 60 females (Mean age 12.5 ± 0.4 years), and a northern Chinese sample consisted of 50 males (Mean age 12.8 ± 1.8 years) and 50 females (Mean age 12.4 ± 1.2 years). All subjects had a Class I molar relationship with no or minimal crowding, a well balanced cephalometric profile, and no history of orthodontic treatment. Patient cephalograms were traced and digitized and McNamara’s analysis applied.

Results: A smaller midface and a shorter overall mandibular length were observed in southern Chinese, whereas significantly increased vertical dimension and a retrusive chin were noted in northern Chinese. Protrusive upper and lower incisors and a protrusive upper lip were found in southern Chinese.

Conclusions: There were significant differences in dentofacial morphology between southern and northern Chinese adolescents. It is suggested that separate cephalometric norms be used for patients originating from different parts of China.
