RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to investigate whether oral problems, harmful oral habits, and sociodemographic factors are associated with the occurrence of stress in schoolchildren. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A case-control study nested within a cross-sectional study was conducted with a sample of 375 schoolchildren eight to ten years of age in the city of Diamantina, Brazil. The case group (with childhood stress) and control group (without childhood stress) were matched for age and sex at a 1:4 ratio (75 cases to 300 controls). Data collection involved the self-administration of a questionnaire by parents/caregivers addressing sociodemographic characteristics and the child's history of harmful oral habits. The children answered the Child Stress Scale (CSS) and underwent a clinical oral examination to determine the presence/absence of dental caries, malocclusion, and traumatic dental injuries. Data analysis involved the calculation of frequencies, the chi-square test, and conditional logistic regression (95% CI; p ≤ 0.05). RESULTS: The final adjusted conditional logistic regression model showed that dental caries (OR = 1.78, 95% CI: 1.01 - 3.14, p = 0.044) and biting objects (OR = 1.81, 95% CI: 1.02 - 3.22, p = 0.041) remained associated with stress in the schoolchildren analysed. CONCLUSION: The present results showed that children with dental caries and the habit of biting objects were more likely to have childhood stress. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The study allows paediatric dentists to expand their knowledge with regards to the influence of oral problems and harmful habits on the occurrence of childhood stress and serves as a guide for decision-making related to oral problems in schoolchildren.

RESUMEN

Resumo Objetivo Analisar a frequência de polifarmácia e prescrição de medicamentos potencialmente inapropriados (MPI) segundo os Critérios de Beers e CBMPI em pessoas idosas com vulnerabilidade clínico-funcional. Método Trata-se de um estudo transversal onde analisou-se os prontuários de 496 participantes com 60 anos ou mais, atendidos em primeira consulta em uma Policlínica Gerontológica. Os dados sociodemográficos, medicamentos, e o Índice de Vulnerabilidade Clínico Funcional 20 (IVCF-20) e quedas foram extraídos dos prontuários. A polifarmácia foi definida como o uso simultâneo de cinco ou mais medicamentos. Os participantes foram classificados em três grupos: robusto, em risco e vulnerável. Resultados A análise demonstrou que 69 (13,91%) dos participantes faziam uso de polifarmácia. Entre os usuários de polifarmácia, 40 (57,97%) faziam uso de pelo menos um MPI. Os MPIs mais encontrados foram a glibenclamida e o omeprazol, respectivamente. Pessoas idosas com vulnerabilidade apresentaram um risco três vezes maior de apresentar polifarmácia (RP 3,59; IC95% 2,109-6,092). Conclusão O uso de polifarmácia e MPI neste estudo estavam associados à vulnerabilidade da pessoa idosa, reforçando a necessidade de avaliação criteriosa de prescrições medicamentosas para essa população.

Abstract Objective To analyze the frequency of polypharmacy and the prescription of Potentially Inappropriate Medications (PIM) according to the Beers Criteria and CBMPI in older adults with clinical-functional vulnerability. Method This is a cross-sectional study where the medical records of 496 participants aged 60 and older, seen in their first appointment at a Gerontological Polyclinic, were analyzed. Sociodemographic data, medications, the Clinical-Functional Vulnerability Index-20 (IVCF-20), and falls were extracted from the medical records. Polypharmacy was defined as the simultaneous use of five or more medications. Participants were classified into three groups: robust, at risk, and vulnerable. Results The analysis revealed that 69 (13.91%) participants were using polypharmacy. Among polypharmacy users, 40 (57.97%) were using at least one PIM. The most commonly found PIM were glibenclamide and omeprazole, respectively. Older adults with vulnerability were three times more likely to have polypharmacy (OR 3.59; 95% CI 2.109-6.092). Conclusion The use of polypharmacy and PIM in this study was associated with the vulnerability of older adults, emphasizing the need for a thorough evaluation of medication prescriptions for this population.

RESUMEN

O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar a associação entre facetas de desgaste por atrição e má oclusão em escolares brasileiros. Este estudo transversal realizado com 433 escolares de 8 a 10 anos, junto a seus pais/responsáveis, das redes pública e privada na cidade de Diamantina. Informações sobre sociodemográfico da família da criança e saúde geral da criança foram colhidos a partir de um questionário previamente estruturado, direcionado aos pais/cuidadores. Foram realizados exame intrabucal em cada criança para avalição da presença de facetas de desgaste por atrição, perda de tecido dentário por erosão, ausência/presença de má oclusão e traumatismo dentário. Os resultados foram obtidos a partir da análise descritiva de frequência absoluta e relativa dos dados e analise de Regressão de Poisson (IC 95%; p<0,05). Os resultados mostraram uma prevalência de crianças com facetas de desgaste de 73,7%, a sobressaliência anterior superior (RP= 1,16; IC: 95%; 1,03-1,31; p= 0,014) e a relação molar (RP=1,15; IC 95%: 1,00­1,29; p=0,030) associadas a presença de facetas de desgastes por atrição, e o apinhamento dentário (RP: 0,87; IC: 95%; 0,78-0,98; P= 0,023) um fator de proteção para a facetas de desgaste em escolares, independentemente do sexo e idade da criança. Os resultados do presente mostraram que a alta prevalência de facetas de desgaste, sendo a sobressaliência anterior superior e a relação molar associadas a presença desse desgaste dentário. Dessa forma, os dados sinalizam a necessidade dos cirurgiões-dentistas estarem atentos a presença de desgaste fora dos padrões fisiológicos e relacionados a presença de má-oclusão.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the association between attrition wear facets and malocclusion in Brazilian schoolchildren. This cross-sectional study was carried out with 433 schoolchildren aged 8 to 10 years, along with their parents/guardians, from public and private schools in the city of Diamantina. Information about the child's family sociodemographic and general health was collected from a previously structured questionnaire, directed to parents/caregivers. Intraoral examinations were performed on each child to assess the presence of attrition wear facets, loss of dental tissue by erosion, absence/presence of malocclusion and dental trauma. The results were obtained from the descriptive analysis of absolute and relative frequency of data and Poisson Regression analysis (95% CI; p<0.05). The results showed a prevalence of 73.7% of children with wear facets, superior anterior overjet (PR= 1.16; CI: 95%; 1.03-1.31; p= 0.014) and molar relationship ( PR=1.15; 95% CI: 1.00­1.29; p=0.030) associated with the presence of attrition wear facets, and dental crowding (PR: 0.87; CI: 95%; 0. 78-0.98; P= 0.023) a protective factor for wear facets in schoolchildren, regardless of gender and age of the child. The present results showed that the high prevalence of wear facets, with superior anterior overjet and molar relationship associated with the presence of this tooth wear. Thus, the data indicate the need for dentists to be aware of the presence of wear outside of physiological standards and related to the presence of malocclusion.

objetivo del estudio fue evaluar la asociación entre las facetas del desgaste por atracción y la pobre oclusión en las escuelas brasileñas. Este estudio transversal se llevó a cabo con 433 escuelas de 8 a 10 años de edad, con sus padres/directores, en redes públicas y privadas de la ciudad de Diamantina. La información sobre la sociodemografía familiar del niño y la salud general del niño se recopiló a partir de un cuestionario preestructurado dirigido a los padres y cuidadores. En cada niño se realizó un examen intraabucal para evaluar la presencia de rasgos de desgaste, pérdida de tejido dental por erosión, ausencia/presencia de maloclusión y trauma dental. Los resultados se obtuvieron a partir del análisis descriptivo de la frecuencia absoluta y relativa de los datos y análisis de la regresión de Poisson (IC 95%; p<0,05). Los resultados mostraron una prevalencia de niños con facetas de desgaste del 73,7%, sobresaliencia anterior superior (RP= 1,16; IC del 95%; IC del 1,03-1,31; p= 0,014) y relación molar (RP=1,15; IC del 95%: 1,00-1,29; p=0 030) asociada a la presencia de facetas de fragancia por atracción, y de plomería dental (RP: 0,87; IC: 95%; 0,78-0,98; P= 0,023), un factor de protección para las facetas de desgaste en las escuelas, independientemente del género y la edad del niño. Los resultados de la presente muestra que la alta prevalencia de las facetas desgaste, con la proyección de legado superior y la relación molar asociada con la presencia de este desgaste dental. Así pues, los datos indican la necesidad de que los cirujanos dentales estén alerta ante la presencia de desgaste y desgaste fuera de las normas fisiológicas y relacionados con la presencia de maloclusión.

RESUMEN

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of socioeconomic factors, oral conditions and the impact of OHRQoL as possible risk indicators related to the incidence of untreated dental caries in preschool children two years after an initial examination. A prospective longitudinal study was performed with a sample of 288 preschool children allocated to two groups at baseline (T0): caries free (n = 144) and with untreated dental caries (n = 144). Untreated dental caries was determined through clinical examinations performed by a calibrated dentist at T0 (Kappa > 0,89) and T1 (two years after the baseline) (Kappa > 0,91) using the dmft criteria. Parents/caregivers answered a socioeconomic questionnaire and the Brazilian version of the Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (B-ECOHIS) at T0 and T1. Mann-Whitney test and hierarchically adjusted Poisson regression models were used (95%CI, p < 0,05). The incidence of untreated dental caries was 41.3%. Low (RR = 1.63; 95%CI:1.18-2.26; p < 0.001) and high severity of untreated dental caries (RR = 1.92; 95%CI:1.36-2.72; p < 0.001), monthly household income less than two times the Brazilian minimum salary (RR = 1.79; 95%CI:1.04-3.25; p = 0.042) and overall B-ECOHIS score (RR = 1.03; 95%CI:1.02-1.05; p < 0.001) at T0 were risk indicators for the incidence of untreated dental caries among the preschool children. In conclusion, the incidence of untreated dental caries was high and the higher severity of untreated dental caries, the lower monthly income and the higher the B-ECOHIS score (indicating a negative impact on quality of life) were risk indicators to the developing of new lesions of untreated dental caries after 2 years.

RESUMEN

Abstract This study evaluated the association between religiosity and binge drinking in early adolescence. A cross-sectional study was conducted with adolescents aged 10-13 from Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Stratified random sampling was performed considering the administrative district and school year. Adolescents filled an AUDIT-C form, containing questions about religiosity and binge drinking by parents and their best friends. Adolescents' caregivers answered a form regarding socioeconomic issues. Descriptive analysis, univariate, and multivariate logistic regression were performed. A total of 650 adolescents participated in the study. The frequency of binge drinking was 13.7%. In the adjusted model, religiosity was not associated with binge drinking. The covariates associated were the age of 12-13 years (OR: 1.94; CI95%: 1.06-3.56; p=0.030), maternal binge drinking (OR: 3.12; CI95%: 1.76-5.52; p<0.001) best friend binge drinking (OR: 6.01; CI95%: 3.40-10.62; p<0.001) and nonnuclear family (OR: 1.80; CI95%: 1.01-3.23; p=0.045). The findings revealed that, for binge drinking, the main factors that influenced this decision were the best friend and maternal binge drinking and family structure, although the adolescents claimed to be religious.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Children and adolescents with vision impairment (VI) may be at increased risk of oral health issues, such as periodontal inflammation, poor oral hygiene, dental caries, and dental trauma, but this is inconclusive in the literature. AIM: To systematically review the literature to determine the main oral health issues of children and adolescents with VI compared to those without VI. DESIGN: Electronic and manual searches were performed to identify observational studies involving children and adolescents with and without VI, to determine and compare their oral health issues. The methodological quality was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute critical appraisal tool. Studies that had homogeneity of methods were incorporated into meta-analyses. RESULTS: Fifteen cross-sectional studies were included. Overall, most studies presented methodological flaws and high risk of bias. The meta-analysis showed that children and adolescents with VI were 3.86 times as likely to exhibit dental trauma (OR = 3.86, 95% CI = 2.63-5.68, I2  = 0%) and had higher/poorer values for plaque (MD = 0.80, 95% CI = 0.58-1.02, I2  = 96%), gingivitis (MD = 0.69, 95% CI = 0.02-1.37, I2  = 100%), calculus (MD = 0.04, 95% CI = 0.03-0.06, I2  = 0%), and oral hygiene indices (MD = 0.71, 95% CI = 0.24-1.18, I2  = 97%), as well as DMFS (MD = 0.90, 95% CI = 0.68-1.13, I2  = 26%). CONCLUSION: Across a wide array of assessments, children and adolescents with vision impairment had worse oral health outcomes than those without VI.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate whether the trajectory of family income, parental education and clinical variables are associated with the clinical consequences of untreated dental caries among children. METHODS: A prospective cohort study was conducted with 439 children between one and three years of age, evaluated at baseline and re-evaluated after three years. Sociodemographic and economic variables, untreated dental caries and biofilm were investigated both at baseline and at the 3-year follow-up. The pufa index (pulpal involvement, ulceration, fistula and abscess) was used to diagnose the clinical consequences of untreated dental caries. RESULTS: The prevalence of pufa ≥1 was 18.2% in the follow-up. The following variables were associated with a higher risk of clinical consequences of untreated dental caries: mother's low schooling level at baseline and follow-up (RR = 1.51; 95% CI: 1.04-2.18), incidence or baseline presence of biofilm (RR = 4.66; 95% CI: 2.02-10.74), cavitated dental caries at baseline (RR = 3.57; 95% CI:1.86 to 6.83) and incidence of cavitated dental caries (RR = 2.04; 95% CI: 1.24-3.35). CONCLUSION: Low maternal schooling level, biofilm, cavitated dental caries at baseline, and incidence of dental caries were the factors determining the consequences of untreated dental caries.

RESUMEN

Abstract: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of socioeconomic factors, oral conditions and the impact of OHRQoL as possible risk indicators related to the incidence of untreated dental caries in preschool children two years after an initial examination. A prospective longitudinal study was performed with a sample of 288 preschool children allocated to two groups at baseline (T0): caries free (n = 144) and with untreated dental caries (n = 144). Untreated dental caries was determined through clinical examinations performed by a calibrated dentist at T0 (Kappa > 0,89) and T1 (two years after the baseline) (Kappa > 0,91) using the dmft criteria. Parents/caregivers answered a socioeconomic questionnaire and the Brazilian version of the Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (B-ECOHIS) at T0 and T1. Mann-Whitney test and hierarchically adjusted Poisson regression models were used (95%CI, p < 0,05). The incidence of untreated dental caries was 41.3%. Low (RR = 1.63; 95%CI:1.18-2.26; p < 0.001) and high severity of untreated dental caries (RR = 1.92; 95%CI:1.36-2.72; p < 0.001), monthly household income less than two times the Brazilian minimum salary (RR = 1.79; 95%CI:1.04-3.25; p = 0.042) and overall B-ECOHIS score (RR = 1.03; 95%CI:1.02-1.05; p < 0.001) at T0 were risk indicators for the incidence of untreated dental caries among the preschool children. In conclusion, the incidence of untreated dental caries was high and the higher severity of untreated dental caries, the lower monthly income and the higher the B-ECOHIS score (indicating a negative impact on quality of life) were risk indicators to the developing of new lesions of untreated dental caries after 2 years.

RESUMEN

The aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of oral health-related shame and the associated factors among 8-to-10-year-old Brazilian schoolchildren. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 388 children randomly selected from public and private schools of Diamantina, southeastern Brazil. In order to identify the feeling of shame, self-reports were collected through a single question, "In the last month, did you feel ashamed because of your teeth or mouth? Two calibrated examiners performed the clinical examination for dental caries (DMFT/dmft index), traumatic dental injuries (O' Brien), and malocclusion (Dental Aesthetic Index). Sociodemographic indicators were obtained through a questionnaire answered by the children's caregivers. Descriptive analysis, chi-square test, and hierarchical Poisson regression models were performed (95%CI; p < 0.05). The prevalence of shame was 38.1% (n = 148). The adjusted regression analysis demonstrated a significant association between shame and untreated dental caries (PR: 1.34; 95%CI: 1.04-1.74; p = 0.02), age of 10 years (PR: 1.36; 95%CI: 1.05-1.76; p = 0.01), and with parents with less than eight years of schooling (PR: 1.30; 95%CI: 1.00-1.68; p = 0.04). Older children with untreated dental caries and whose parents had lower education level presented a higher prevalence of oral health-related shame.

RESUMEN

The present study aimed to evaluate the frequency of immediate care seeking after traumatic dental injury (TDI) in primary dentition and its association with the children's characteristics, socioeconomic status, and TDI characteristics. This was a cross-sectional study with dental records of children aged 9 months to 6 years who attended a reference center in TDI in primary dentition between 2007 and 2018. Immediate care seeking after TDI, child's characteristics, sociodemographic conditions and TDI characteristics were collected. Descriptive statistics and Poisson regression analysis with robust variance were performed (p < 0.05; 95%CI). Among the 493 dental records, 61.1% (n = 301) were of males and 50.5% (n = 249) were from children aged 2 years or less. More than one third of the sample (36.9%; n = 182) sought immediate care after TDI. Among the types of TDI, the prevalence of soft tissue injuries was 59.0% (n = 291), while 51.7% (n = 255) were hard tissue injuries and 54.0% (n = 266) were supporting tissue injuries. Immediate care seeking after TDI was higher in children who needed suture (PR: 1.39; 95%CI: 1.01-1.92. p = 0.039), had luxation (lateral, intrusion, or extrusion) (PR: 2.36; 95%CI: 1.36-4.08. p = 0.002) or avulsion (PR: 2.18; 95%CI: 1.28-3.70. p = 0.004). The need for suture, luxation (lateral, intrusion and extrusion), and avulsion were determinant factors for the immediate care seeking after TDI, regardless of the child's characteristics and socioeconomic status.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To identify events and experiences of adolescent mothers relevant to their own care and the care of their children so as to support the elaboration of a future Event History Calendar (EHC) tool. DESIGN AND METHODS: Qualitative study was conducted based on the Grounded Theory, from the constructivist perspective. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 11 Brazilian adolescent mothers. Initial and focused coding was applied in the data analysis. RESULTS: The results present events that demarcate the adolescent mothers' perspectives of child care. Self-care and child care are related to everyday learning, ways of coping, strengthening of various support sources, mastery of gaps in health care, and sensory events. CONCLUSIONS: The different events for adolescents are related to the transience of life, strategies of the moment, and the process of support for pregnancy-motherhood, which is dependent on a network of people and institutions that provide cooperation and participation in the reengagement of the adolescents while encouraging quality of life and development. The events identified can contribute to a list of relevant elements to structure a tool using EHC to guide the clinical practice of nurses so as to strengthen the adolescent's self-care and child care. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: In the context of fragility in the communicative process between adolescent mothers and nurses, the strategy of an EHC can contribute to the expansion of nursing care, aid in developing new coping strategies addressing vulnerabilities, recognize multidimensional needs, strengthen the potentialities and confidence of mothers, and encourage involvement, advocacy and empowerment.

Introduction: The diagnosis and treatment of cancer can cause traumatic consequences, both for patients and their families, which can be minimized through social support. Objective: To identify the perceptions of social support of low-income cancer patients. Method: Descriptive qualitative approach study based on conceptual aspects of care, carried out with low-income cancer patients assisted by a group of volunteers from a city in the countryside of Minas Gerais, following the criteria of the Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research. For data collection, semi-structured, recorded interviews were used, and the sample was closed using the theoretical saturation technique. The data were analyzed using inductive thematic analysis. Results: In the data analysis, three thematic units emerged: interpersonal relationships: the support received from an active collaboration network between people; singularized care as source of support for the health network; and religiosity as a way of coping with difficult situations. These themes portray aspects related to the support network that can contribute for the comprehensive care of the cancer patients, with welcoming and acknowledging needs. Conclusion: A solid social support network formed by individuals who play several social roles is perceived as important for better coping with cancer from the perspective of the biopsychosocio-spiritual model.
