Title

Research Paper: The Credibility of Cephalogram Parameters in Gender Identification From Medico-Legal Relevance Among the Iranian Population

Pages

  11-15

Abstract

 Background: Normal Cephalogram parameters seem to be Gender discriminative and thus applicable in forensic medicine. We assessed validity of Cephalogram parameters in Gender identification among the Iranian population. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 75 Iranian men and 75 Iranian women aged 25 to 54 years. On their first admission, the physicians requested for simple lateral skull X-ray for all participants. Results: Using area under the ROC curve, gonion-gonion index (AUC=0. 741) and vertexmention index (AUC=0. 697) had a moderate value to discriminate male from female Gender, while other parameters lacked enough power to differentiate Gender. The best cut-off point in gonion-gonion index for discriminating male from female Gender was 103. 75 with a sensitivity of 74. 7% and a specificity of 65. 3%. Also, the best cut-off value for vertex-mention index to differentiate two Genders was 244. 75 with a sensitivity of 74. 7% and a specificity of 62. 7%. By considering two parameters of gonion-gonion and vertex-mention, it is possible to differentiate males from females with a sensitivity of 82. 6% and a specificity of 71. 8%. Conclusion: The two gonion-gonion and vertex-mention indices on Cephalogram are applicable for Gender discrimination.
