Investigating the Relationship between the Dimensions and Morphology of Sella Turcica with the Long-Face Growth Pattern and the Vertical Growth Pattern

Table 3

Investigating the relationship between sella turcica bridging and the occurrence of long face and the effects age and sex as dependent variables.

Different types of bridging	The crude model		The adjusted model^1,2
	Odds ratio (confidence interval)	p Value	Odds ratio (confidence interval)^1	p Value	Odds ratio (confidence interval)^2	p Value
Without bridging	1	–	1	–	1	–
Partial	8.37 (3.98–17.57)	0.00	8.61 (3.97–18.6)	0.00	9.61 (4.3–21.5)	0.00
Complete	1.92 (0.3–12.5)	0.50	1.41 (0.21–9.2)	0.72	2.37 (0.31–17.93)	0.40

The adjusted model: investigating the relationship between sella bridging and the occurrence of long face ¹after controlling the confounding effect of sex, ²after controlling the confounding effect of age.
