Resumen
The blink reflex latencies and cephalometric indexes were analysed in 30 male volunteers from three different races, 10 white, 10 black, and 10 Oriental. Ages ranged from 15 to 59 years, height from 1,60 to 1,80 m, and weight from 60 to 80 kg. Blink reflexes were obtained after unilateral electric stimulation of the supraorbital nerve for quantitative analysis of 3 responses, early ipsilateral (R1), late ipsilateral (R2i) and late contralateral (R2c), obtained from the orbicularis oculi muscle. Cephalometric indexes were calculated by multiplying the ratio between the longer transverse and the longer sagital head diameters by 100. The R1, R2i and R2c latencies were consistent with other published papers revealing no differences between the different racial groups. The mean of the cephalometric indexes of each group were consistent with respective racial characteristics. This study revealed that there are no differences between R1, R2i and R2c latencies in the 3 different studied races. 60 3 A 563 565 Kimura, J., Powers, J.M., Allen, M.W.V., Reflex responses of orbicularis oculi muscle to supraorbital nerve stimule (1969) Arch Neurol, 21, pp. 193-199 Tokunaga, A., Oka, M., Murao, T., An experimental study on facial reflex by evoked electromyography (1958) Med J Osaka Univ, 9, pp. 397-411 Terrell, G.S., Terzis, J.K., An experimental model to study the blink reflex (1958) J Reconstr Microsurg, 10, pp. 175-183 Fine, E.J., Sentz, L., Soria, E., The history of the blink reflex (1992) Neurology, 42, pp. 450-454 Dejong, R.N., Haerer, A.F., (1992) The Neurologic Examination. 5.Ed., pp. 184-188. , Philadelphia: Lippincott Overend, W., Preliminary note on a new cranial reflex (1992) Lancet, 1, p. 619 McCarthy, D.J., Der Supraorbitalreflex. ein neuer Reflex im gebeit des 5. und 7.
