Study quality was evaluated using ROBINS-I (Risk Of Bias In Nonrandomized Studies\u2014of Interventions) and Cochrane RoB 2 (risk-of-bias) tools. Included studies were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or non-RCTs involving infants with unilateral cleft lip and palate treated with PSO techniques, focusing on alveolar segment alignment and nasal morphology.
