“…However, in this retrospective study, various parameters could limit the generalizability of the present findings through selection bias, since the subjects included were of a limited age range and were recruited from a specific clinical population of patients with no control group, which is similar to other studies of this nature. In addition, only those subjects that completed the protocol were included, which is a potential source of attrition bias [16]. Nevertheless, this study tested one aspect of the Spatial matrix hypothesis [17] in that palatal widening represents a change in spatial relations, which is thought to initiate a cascade of events that subsequently yield structural modifications of the phenotype until the system regresses to a new level of craniofacial homeostasis.…”
