Resumo
OBJETIVO: Avaliar a posição do supercílio em diferentes idades, utilizando medidas angulares. MÉTODOS: Foram avaliados indivíduos com idade de 4 a 6 anos (Grupo de crianças) e igual ou superior a 50 anos (Grupo de idosos), separados em faixas etárias, avaliando-se a posição do supercílio por meio de imagens digitais, utilizando medidas angulares. As imagens foram tomadas em posição primária do olhar, utilizando filmadora Sony Lithium, e posteriormente transferidas para computador MacIntosh G4 e processadas pelo programa NIH 1,58. Os parâmetros analisados foram: ângulo interno, externo e vertical da cauda do supercílio. As comparações foram entre sexos, faixas etárias e lateralidade. Os resultados obtidos foram submetidos à análise estatística. RESULTADOS: A comparação das medidas angulares mostrou que houve diferença significativa na posição da cauda do supercílio entre os grupos estudados quando comparados dentro do grupo com faixa etária semelhante. Porém, comparando-se crianças e adultos, houve diferença em todos os tipos de ângulos estudados. CONCLUSÕES: A posição do supercílio avaliada por medidas angulares mostrou diferenças entre crianças e idosos, revelando associação positiva com a idade.
PURPOSE: To evaluate the eyebrow position in children and elderly using angle measurements. METHODS: The eyebrow position was evaluated by digital images in 4 to 6-year-old children (children group) and in patients with 50 years or more (elderly group), separated by age range. The images were taken in the primary gaze position with a Sony Lithium camera and then transferred to a MacIntosh G4 computer and processed by the NIH 1.58 program. The eyebrow position was evaluated using angle measures. Comparisons were done according to age, sex and laterality and the data were submitted to statistical analysis. RESULTS: The comparison of the angular measures showed that there was a significant difference in the position of eyebrow position between the studied groups with the same age. But comparing children and elderly there were differences in all performed measurements. CONCLUSION: The eyebrow external angle positions showed differences between children and elderly with a positive association between eyebrow position and age.
