Of the 85 patients, 48 were male and 37 were female; all had been diagnosed with AH and underwent surgery. Sleeping with open-mouth breathing was frequently accompanied by clinical manifestations such as chronic sinusitis in most patients. Every patient was subjected to a CBCT examination of the nasopharynx and 3D airway reconstruction. The adenoid thickness (A) and nasopharyngeal cavity width (N) were measured in the sagittal plane, while the S was measured in the coronal plane. The factors that had a significant impact on S\u2019s size was analyzed using linear regression.\n                    <jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold>\n                    S and age, A, N, height, weight, BMI, allergic rhinitis, deviated nasal septum, and enlarged turbinate hypertrophy did not differ significantly (\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &gt; .05). However, there was a significant linear relationship between A\/N and chronic sinusitis (\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">R<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                    = 0.948,\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; .01).
