“…These findings support that the NC and TMHT may be predictors of DL. Several studies showed promising results, even with a single predictor [4,[16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. However, the previous studies are different from those of ours.…”

“…The vast majority of the studies on prediction of difficult airway using NC is on obese patients so data in non-obese are insufficient [8,16,17]. There were also differences in the primary outcome (difficult intubation vs. DL) [8,18,[20][21][22]. There may be differences in some TMHT studies because the patient population is of different races from the patient population in our study.…”

The result was determined by the Cormack-Lehane (C-L) grade [9]. Patients with Cormack-Lehane grade > 2 were assigned to the di cult laryngoscopy group, and patients with Cormack-Lehane grade I or II were assigned to the easy laryngoscopy group.…”
