Table 3 Mean condylar position (jaw closed) among women and men, respectively, calculated according to the formula \( \frac{\mathrm{posterior}\hbox{-} \mathrm{anterior}}{\mathrm{posterior}+\mathrm{anterior}}\times \kern0.5em 100\%\kern0.5em \left(n=139\right) \). There was no statistical significance in the relationship between the cohorts and the sexes, respectively
