RESUMO
The sugarcane industry generates byproducts that contribute to the proliferation of Stomoxys calcitrans. An analysis was carried out to verify the efficacy of Heterorhabditis bacteriophora HP88 and H. baujardi LPP7 at different vinasse temperatures to control S. calcitrans larvae. Ten fly larvae were deposited in plastic containers containing four mL of 50% vinasse. Each treatment consisted of 300 EPN/larvae of H. bacteriophora added to the containers and heated at temperatures of 25, 28, 31, 34, 37 and 40 °C. The same treatments were performed using H. baujardi. The treatments were carried out in a BOD incubator at 25 ± 1 °C and 70 ± 10% RH, and each treatment was replicated six times. The treated groups, controls and temperatures showed no statistical differences in terms of larval mortality rate (P=0.8573), percentage of dead pupae (P=0.1782) and adult emergence (P=0.4386). Larval mortality rates of 30% and 14.17% were achieved with H. bacteriophora and H. baujardi, respectively, while the control groups presented 3.89% with H. bacteriophora and 8.61% with H. baujardi. From the standpoint of temperatures, significant differences were found only at 37 and 40 °C for H. baujardi. The highest pupal mortality achieved with H. bacteriophora was 34.17% at 31 °C, while that reached with H. baujardi at 37 °C was 40%. The groups containing H. bacteriophora caused lower adult emergence rates at temperatures of 25, 28, 31 and 34 °C, while H. baujardi caused its lowest emergence rates at 37 and 40 °C. It is concluded that infection occurs in the immature stages of S. calcitrans by EPN when added to 50% vinasse solution at different temperatures and that nematodes caused negative effects on the emergence of fly larvae at varying temperatures.
A indústria da cana-de-açúcar gera subprodutos que ajudam na proliferação de Stomoxys calcitrans. Uma análise foi realizada para verificar a eficiência de Heterorhabditis bacteriophora HP88 e H. baujardi LPP7 em diferentes temperaturas de vinhaça no controle de larvas de S. calcitrans. Dez larvas da mosca foram depositadas em recipientes plásticos contendo quatro mL de vinhoto à 50%. Em cada tratamento adicionou-se 300 NEP/larva de H. bacteriophora, aquecidos nas temperaturas de 25, 28, 31, 34, 37 e 40 °C. Os mesmos tratamentos foram realizados utilizando e H. baujardi. Os tratamentos foram realizados e mantidos em câmara climatizada a 25 ± 1 °C e 70 ± 10% UR, foram realizadas seis repetições para cada tratamento. Não houve diferença estatística entre os grupos tratados, controles e temperaturas para taxa de mortalidade de larval (P=0,8573), percentual de pupas mortas (P=0,1782) e emergência de adultos (P=0,4386). Foram observadas taxas de mortalidade larval de 30% e 14,17% para H. bacteriophora e H. baujardi, respectivamente, enquanto os grupos controles apresentaram 3,89% no H. bacteriophora e 8,61% H. baujardi. Na avaliação das temperaturas, foram observadas diferenças significativas apenas nas temperaturas 37 e 40 °C de H. baujardi. A maior mortalidade pupal observada para H. bacteriophora foi de 34,17% quando em 31 °C, já para H. baujardi na temperatura de 37 °C apresentou 40% de mortalidade. Houve menor emergência de adultos nas temperaturas de 25, 28, 31 e 34 °C nos grupos com H. bacteriophora, já H. baujardi causou as menores taxas de emergência quando em 37 e 40 °C. Conclui-se que ocorre infecção nos estágios imaturos de S. calcitrans por NEP quando adicionados à solução de vinhoto a 50% em diferentes temperaturas e que os nematoides causaram efeitos negativos na emergência da mosca em temperaturas variadas.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Uremic stomatitis is often unfamiliar to healthcare professionals. This study presents five cases of uremic stomatitis, providing a comprehensive analysis of their demographic distribution, clinicopathological features, and management strategies based on existing literature. METHODS: Data were collected from centers across Brazil, Argentina, Venezuela, and Mexico. Electronic searches were conducted in five databases supplemented by manual scrutiny and gray literature. RESULTS: The series consisted of three men and two women with a mean age of 40.2 years. Lesions mostly appeared as white plaques, particularly on the tongue (100%). The median blood urea level was 129 mg/dL. Histopathological analysis revealed epithelial changes, including acanthosis and parakeratosis, with ballooned keratinocytes in the suprabasal region. Oral lesions resolved subsequent to hemodialysis in three cases (75%). Thirty-seven studies comprising 52 cases of uremic stomatitis have been described hitherto. Most patients were male (65.4%) with a mean age of 43.6 years. Clinically, grayish-white plaques (37.3%) and ulcers/ulcerations (28.9%) were common, particularly on the tongue (30.9%). Hemodialysis was performed on 27 individuals. The resolution rate of oral lesions was 53.3%. CONCLUSION: Earlier recognition of uremic stomatitis, possibly associated with long-term uremia, holds the potential to improve outcomes for patients with undiagnosed chronic kidney disease.

This study aimed to evaluate the virulence of Heterorhabditis amazonenses NEPT11 against larvae of Stomoxys calcitrans. Groups of 10 third-instar fly larvae were deposited in Petri dishes, to which were added 50, 100 and 200 EPNs/larva in 4ml of distilled water. The volume of the control group was the same as the treated group, but without EPNs. Larval mortality was observed daily, until larvae died or adults emerged. The Petri dishes were kept on laboratory shelves at 27 ± 1 °C and 70 ± 10% RH. The experiment was replicated six times. A regression analysis revealed quadratic behavior with increasing concentrations, indicating that the concentration of 200 EPNs/larva (48%) was the most efficient among the tested concentrations, while concentrations of 50 and 100 EPNs/larva killed 26.6 and 40% of larvae, respectively. In general, none of the treatments resulted in a mortality rate of more than 50%, but all the treated groups exhibited a higher mortality than that of the control group. It is concluded that the EPN H. amazonensis NEPT11 shows a promising potential to control third-instar larvae of S. calcitrans. However, further studies are needed in different situations to better understand the activity of this organism against the immature stages of the stable fly.
Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a ação do NEP Heterorhabditis amazonenses NEPT11 frente larvas de S. calcitrans. Grupos de 10 larvas de terceiro instar da mosca foram depositados em placas de Petri, em seguida, adicionou-se 50, 100, 200, 300 e 400 NEPs/larva em 4ml de água destilada. O volume do grupo controle foi o mesmo dos tratados, porém sem NEPs. A mortalidade das larvas foi observada diariamente, até a morte das larvas ou emergência de adultos. As placas foram mantidas em estantes de laboratório a 27 ± 1 °C e 70 ± 10% UR. O experimento teve seis repetições. Por meio da análise de regressão, foi observado comportamento quadrático com o aumento das concentrações, sendo a concentração de 200 NEPs/larva (48%) a de maior eficiência entre as concentrações testadas, já as concentrações de 50 e 100 NEPs/larva mataram 26,6 e 40% das larvas, respectivamente. De modo geral, nenhum tratamento proporcionou mortalidade superior a 50%, todavia, todos os grupos tratados apresentaram mortalidade superior à observada no controle. Conclui-se que H. amazonenses NEPT11 mostrou-se promissor no controle de larvas de terceiro instar de S. calcitrans, porém mais estudos devem ser feitos para o melhor entendimento da ação deste organismo frente aos estágios imaturos da mosca-dos-estábulos.
RESUMO
Facial fractures cause postoperative morbidity, including edema, pain, and trismus. Elastic therapeutic tapes are used for optimizing recovery. Background: The aim of the present systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the effectiveness of elastic tape Kinesio taping (KT) in reducing postoperative morbidity in facial fractures surgeries. Methods: A systematic review was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. Searches were conducted in the Cochrane, Medline, Scopus, Embase and Web of Science databases using a pre-established search strategy. Results: A total of 811 studies were retrieved after the duplicates were removed, and only randomized clinical trials were included. Eight trials, involving 319 participants, were deemed eligible. One study solely investigated the effect on edema, while the others analyzed at least two of the variables of interest. Results from two RCTs, where qualitative analysis was applicable, suggest a potential reduction in edema in the KT group compared to the control group on the second (RR -0.55, 95% CI -0.89 to -0.22; p = 0.01; I2 = 0%) and third postoperative days (RR -0.71, 95% CI -1.01 to -0.40; p < 0.00001; I2 = 0%). Conclusions: KT is effective in controlling postoperative edema following surgery for facial fractures. However, the effects on pain and trismus should be explored further in studies with standardized methods.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: In the last decade, tissue-engineering strategies for regenerating the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) have been investigated. This may be a promising strategy for the minimally invasive restoration of joint integrity. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate whether dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) loaded in a light-occured hydrogel made of gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) enhance the regeneration of osteochondral defects in the rabbit TMJ. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Defects were filled with GelMA alone (control group; n = 4) or filled with GelMA loaded with rabbit DPSCs (experimental group; n = 4), In one group, the TMJ capsule was opened without creating a defect (sham group; n = 2). The following micro-CT parameters were analysed: bone volume to total volume ratio (BV/TV%) and bone mineral density (BMD). Histological evaluation was performed to assess cartilage regeneration features. A semi-quantitative scoring system was also used to evaluate the defects. RESULTS: All groups had no statistical difference regarding the micro-CT parameters. The highest mean healing score was found for the experimental group. After 4 weeks, there were no signs of hydrogel in either group or no signs of inflammation in the adjacent tissues. The tissue formed in the defect was dense fibrous connective tissue. CONCLUSION: Adding DPSCs to GelMA did not provide a regenerative enhancement in TMJ osteochondral defects. This resulted in similar micro-CT parameters after 4 weeks of healing, with improved signs of subchondral bone regeneration but no cartilage regeneration.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the EPN Heterorhabditis bacteriophora HP88 on Stmoxys. calcitrans larvae in sugarcane bagasse ash. Groups of 10 stable fly larvae were placed in Petri dishes containing filter paper and bagasse ash. Concentrations of 50, 150 and 250 EPNs/larva of S. calcitrans in four milliliters of distilled water were added to each plate. In the control group contained only distilled water, without EPNs. The bioassay had three replications and was maintained at 27 ± 1°C and 70-80% relative humidity. It was observed that mortality rate in all treated groups was significantly higher than in the control group (26,6%). The mortality rate in the presence of 50 EPNs/larva (46,6%) was lower than in 150 EPNs/larva (76,3%), which in turn was lower than 250 EPNs/larva group (93,3%). It was verified by analysis of variance and regression that there was a linear pattern of mortality, that is, the higher the EPNs/larva concentration, the higher the larval mortality. It was concluded that EPN H. bacteriophora HP88 was capable of infecting and causing mortality of stable fly larvae in sugarcane bagasse ash.
O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o efeito do NEP Heterorhabditis bacteriophora HP88 sobre larvas de Stomoxys calcitrans em cinzas de bagaço de cana-de-açúcar. Grupos de 10 larvas da mosca dos estábulos foram depositadas em placas de Petri contendo papel filtro e cinzas. Foram adicionadas concentrações de 50, 150 e 250 NEPs/larva de S. calcitrans em cada placa. No grupo controle não havia NEPs, somente água destilada. O bioensaio teve três repetições e foi mantido em 27 ± 1°C e 70-80% de umidade relativa. Observou-se que a mortalidade em todos os grupos tratados foi significativamente superior à do grupo controle (26,6%). A taxa de mortalidade na presença de 50 NEPs/larva (46,6%) foi menor do que em 150 NEPs/larva (76,3%), que por sua vez foi menor do que no grupo 250 NEPs/larva (93,3%). Verificou-se pela análise de variância e de regressão que houve um padrão linear de mortalidade, ou seja, quanto maior a concentração de NEPs/larva, maior a mortalidade larval. Conclui-se que o NEP H. bacteriophora HP88 foi capaz de infectar e causar mortalidade das larvas da mosca dos estábulos em cinza de bagaço de cana e que aparentemente este subproduto não interfere negativamente na ação deste NEP.
RESUMO
The use of cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive for surgical wound closure has become increasingly popular in recent years and has shown efficacy. Therefore, the aim of this systematic review was to compare the effectiveness of cyanoacrylate adhesive as a substitute for conventional suture placement after extraction of impacted third molars. The PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Cochrane, and gray literature databases were searched for randomized or controlled prospective clinical trials published up to October 2022 that compared the use of cyanoacrylate adhesive and conventional silk suture in third molar surgeries. The risk of bias of each study was assessed using the RoB 2 tool (revised Cochrane risk of bias tool for randomized trials). Five randomized clinical trials with a total of 236 patients were included. The most commonly evaluated outcomes were pain and bleeding. The type of adhesive used varied and included ethyl-2-cyanoacrylate, isoamyl 2-cyanoacrylate, and a mixture of n-butyl cyanoacrylate and 2-octyl cyanoacrylate. Compared with 3-0 silk suture, cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive resulted in lower levels of postoperative pain in 3 studies and lower rates of bleeding in all 5 studies. Thus, cyanoacrylate can be a good substitute for silk sutures for wound closure in intraoral surgeries.

Chediak-Higashi syndrome (CHS) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by leukocytes with giant secretory granules and a myriad of clinical features. However, it is unknown whether oral lesions are part of the syndrome or are refractory to systemic treatment. Herein, we integrated the available data published in the literature on the oral manifestations of individuals with CHS. Searches on PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, and LILACS were conducted to identify studies published up to March/2022. The Joanna Briggs Institute tool was used for the critical appraisal of studies. Fourteen articles (21 cases) were detected. The mean age of individuals was 15.9±8.8 years. There was a slight predominance of males (52.4%). The major manifestation was periodontal disease (81%), although ulceration of the oral mucosa (14.3%), gingival/labial abscess (4.8%), and periodontal abscess (4.8%) were also reported. Oral rehabilitation including dental implants (9.5%) was performed after tooth losses due to the poor prognosis of periodontal therapy. CHS is usually diagnosed in an early stage due to its systemic manifestations such as classic oculocutaneous albinism, recurrent infections, and a propensity for bleeding. Oral health providers should be aware of the manifestations of individuals with CHS. Special care, including oral prophylaxis, is indispensable.

OBJECTIVE: To perform a systematic review on the effects of listening to music in reducing preoperative anxiety and pain (intra or postoperative) in third molar extractions. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A systematic review modeled according to the PRISMA guidelines was conducted. The MEDLINE/PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, and Scopus databases were searched for relevant reports. To be included in the study sample, the studies were required to be randomized controlled trials (RCT) on the effects of listening to music on outcomes of third molar extraction. Two reviewers independently extracted the relevant data from the reports. RESULTS: A total of 1882 studies were retrieved after the duplicates were removed. After applying the inclusion criteria, five studies were included for qualitative analysis. In 4 studies, music was played before and during the extraction of the impacted third molars. In one study, music was played only before the procedure. The genres varied from classic piano music to rock, pop, jazz, folk, and even hymns. Overall, music listening was beneficial for patients in reducing preoperative anxiety or anxiety during the procedure compared to control. However, only one study demonstrated a statistically significant decrease in systolic blood pressure. CONCLUSIONS: Music may be an effective non-pharmacological measure to reduce preoperative anxiety in patients scheduled for third molar extraction; however, the hemodynamic effects and the effects on pain (both perioperative and postoperative) should be further explored. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The side effects of certain medications may be avoided if listening to music is used in third molar extractions.

The present study aims to develop an integrative review about pseudoaneurysms after traumatic facial trauma, through the analysis of its etiology, type of fracture, signs and symptoms, time elapsed between the trauma and the exposure of signs and symptoms, and treatment performed in these cases. Furthermore into the report, there are 3 clinical cases that occurred in the Buccomaxillofacial Surgery and Traumatology service of Hospital da Restauração Recife/PE. The study was carried out in 2 phases, first, a digital research about post-traumatic craniofacial pseudoaneurysm was performed in the following databases "MEDLINE/PubMed," "Scielo" and "Scopus," in September 2019, with 5 articles being included. In the second, 3 cases of patients with high-impact facial trauma who developed pseudoaneurysm of the internal carotid artery were reported. The average age of the patients was 35.6 years, all patients were male (100%), the majority (60%) being victims of an automobile accident, 3 patients (60%) suffered craniofacial trauma and 2 (40%) had trauma only to the face, most of them had symptoms later on due to the trauma, in 80% of cases the therapy instituted was embolization. Cases of high-impact craniofacial traumas, which present epistaxis and/or ophthalmological alterations correlated to fractures, should be carefully evaluated, determining a better prognosis for the patient.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: Several animal models of temporomandibular joint ankylosis (TMJA) have been described for more than the past 2 decades. The aim of this study was 2-fold: 1) to compile and summarize the evidence of animal studies that compare different forms to induce, treat (disease already established), or prevent (after trauma) TMJA; and 2) to address the following focused question: what is the quality of reporting in these studies? MATERIALS AND METHODS: A systematic review was conducted. Animal studies conducted up to October 2019 comparing at least 2 procedures to induce, treat (disease already established), or prevent (after trauma) TMJA were considered. Compliance with the Animal Research Reporting In Vivo Experiments guidelines was checked for all studies. Studies evaluating treatment of TMJA or preventive measures also were evaluated using the SYstematic Review Center for Laboratory animal Experimentation's risk of bias tool for animal studies. RESULTS: A total of 24 studies were included. The studies were evaluated for feasibility regarding data synthesis, and a meta-analysis was not suitable because of methodological differences, mainly regarding the animal model chosen and surgical procedures performed to induce TMJA. In 17 articles, authors aimed to investigate different procedures to induce TMJA (fibrous, fibro-osseous, or bony). In 7 articles, different treatment or preventive strategies were compared. The sheep was the most used animal in models of TMJA. Only 25% (6 of 24) of studies reported some step to minimize bias (ie, blinding of investigators, randomization procedures, or allocation concealment). Approximately 54% (13 of 24) of articles clearly commented on study limitations and potential sources of bias. Further animal studies on TMJA should consider improving their reporting standards to increase their validity and improve the reproducibility of animal experiments.

OBJECTIVES: The present systematic review aimed to evaluate whether the IANB (conventional inferior alveolar nerve block) technique is superior to the VA (Vazirani-Akinosi) or GG (Gow-Gates) techniques for anesthesia in the removal of posterior mandibular teeth. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This systematic review was structured according to the PICO strategy, adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) checklist, and was recorded on the international prospective register of systematic reviews (PROSPERO-CRD42020153130). Studies were included based on the eligibility criteria and data from the included studies were collected by one author, while another reviewed the compilation. RESULTS: Eight studies were included, all of which were randomized controlled trials. Three studies tested the techniques by exclusively performing lower third molar removal; the others covered other posterior lower teeth. All studies used the same local anesthetic and the same vasoconstrictor: lidocaine 2% with epinephrine/adrenaline. A total of 1056 patients were evaluated. CONCLUSIONS: Some differences were observed between the techniques. Because of the heterogeneity between studies, clinical trials with more specific methodologies, such as comparisons of GG and VA with IANB for mandibular tooth removal, and the same clinical homogeneity will be worthwhile. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: A systematic review of which anesthetic technique is most effective for mandibular teeth removal may positively impact the population's life. There are no systematic reviews which approach this theme in a well-structured perspective.

PURPOSE: Arthrocentesis is a common treatment for temporomandibular joint disorders. Although modifications of the standard double-puncture technique have been described, no consensus has been reached regarding which is the best. The aim of the present study was to compare the outcomes of the single- and double-puncture arthrocentesis techniques (SPT and DPT, respectively). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A systematic review following the PRISMA (preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses) guidelines was performed. Two independent reviewers conducted electronic searches in the MEDLINE/PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Scopus databases for relevant studies reported up to January 2019. Studies comparing type I SPT (only 1 cannula) or type II SPT (2 soldered cannulas) to conventional DPT were considered. Data regarding the maximal mouth opening (MMO), joint pain, and operative time were extracted for the meta-analysis. In the case of statistically significant heterogeneity (P < .10), a random effects model was used to assess the significance of the treatment effects. Otherwise, a fixed effects model was used. The included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were assessed for methodologic quality using the Cochrane Collaboration tool. RESULTS: Nine studies were included for qualitative synthesis. Two were suitable for quantitative synthesis per outcome. The meta-analysis did not find any differences between SPT and DPT in relation to the MMO. However, in relation to joint pain, the results slightly favored the use of DPT. No differences in operative time were found between type I SPT and DPT (P = .49). CONCLUSIONS: The present study found no differences between the SPT and DPT in relation to the MMO, and no difference was found in operative time between the DPT and type I SPT. Because of the heterogeneity between studies, it might be interesting to conduct more homogeneous RCTs to elucidate which technique results in better clinical outcomes.

PURPOSE: Traumatic dislocation of the mandibular condyle into the middle cranial fossa (DMCCF) is a rare event after maxillofacial trauma. Treatment may be performed with closed or open reduction (with or without craniotomy), and arthroplasty procedures might be necessary for long-standing cases. The aims of this study were to perform an integrative review of traumatic DMCCF cases reported in an electronic database and to report a case in which cerebrospinal fluid leakage occurred after open treatment. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The study was carried out in 2 phases. In the first part, an electronic search was undertaken in MEDLINE (via PubMed) in April 2018, with 52 articles being included. In the second, we report a case in which cerebrospinal fluid leakage occurred through the external auditory canal after open reduction of the mandibular condyle into the middle cranial fossa in a 22-year-old male patient, with a follow-up of 5 months. RESULTS: A total of 59 cases were included. Most patients were female patients (69%), the right condyle was mostly affected, and traffic accidents (53%) were the main etiology. Closed treatment was ideally performed within 2 weeks of intrusion. Open treatment was required for cases with 2 or more weeks of impaction. The types of open treatment were open reduction, condylectomy, condylotomy, and temporomandibular joint reconstruction with alloplastic implants. The glenoid fossa was reconstructed in 28 cases, and a temporalis muscle flap with or without bone grafts was the main choice. Despite the treatment option used, mandibular deviation during opening occurred in 41% of cases. Rare complications included persistent facial paralysis, persistent hearing loss on the affected side, increased cerebral contusion after reduction, and postoperative pneumocephalus. CONCLUSIONS: Cases of DMCCF require a multidisciplinary approach based on the expertise of both maxillofacial and neurologic surgeons. Close monitoring is extremely important to mitigate complications.

OBJECTIVES: To analyse the occurrence of calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumours (CEOT) based on biopsy records from different Brazilian geographic regions and to contrast the data with a review of the literature. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 2-step study was conducted. Step 1 consisted of a collaborative study of biopsies obtained from 1953 to 2017 at six Brazilian oral and maxillofacial pathology centres. Evaluation of 86,268 biopsy records was performed. Demographic and histopathological diagnosis data were assessed. In Step 2, a review of the literature of case reports and cases series of CEOT identified across five electronic databases was conducted. RESULTS: In the collaborative study, 32 cases of CEOT were evaluated. This figure represented 0.03% of the oral and maxillofacial lesions and 1.7% of all odontogenic tumours across the centres. Women in the fourth decade of life were more affected. CEOT occurred more in the mandible than in the maxilla (ratio 1.9:1). The review of the literature showed that Asian individuals were more affected by this neoplasm. CONCLUSIONS: Useful knowledge on the epidemiology, treatment and follow-up of CEOT has been provided. Demographic data and clinical features of the cases presented in this collaborative study were quite similar to those of studies reported worldwide.

BACKGROUND: Nonsyndromic cleft lip and/or palate (NSCL/P) is the most common craniofacial malformation. Due to the anatomical defect present in the alveolar process, these patients tend to exhibit more dental anomalies. The aim of this study was to identify the prevalence of dental anomalies in patients with NSCL/P by obtaining orthodontic documentation from Brazilian Centers for cleft lip and palate treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis (2000-2014) was conducted on orthodontic archives, radiographs and medical records of NSCL/P of 524 patients under orthodontic treatment. Panoramic radiographs and intra-oral photographs were examined to identify these anomalies. Categorical variables were expressed in terms of frequencies and percentages and analyzed using the Chi-Square test. The level of significance was set at p≤0.05 in all analyses. RESULTS: Approximately 83.3% of the individuals had at least one dental anomaly. Tooth agenesis was the most common abnormality found in those patients (87.8%) (p<0.001). Also, the largest number of dental anomalies was detected in the group of unilateral left clefts. The prevalence of dental anomalies in the present sample of NSCL/P patients was high and reached the highest levels in patients with alveolar bone clefts. CONCLUSIONS: This study describes the most common dental anomalies observed in patients with NSCL/P. These abnormalities can cause significant problems that may be solved or minimized by early diagnosis and treatment. Key words:Cleft lip and/or palate, dental care for children, epidemiology, craniofacial abnormalities.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the frequency of oral paracoccidioidomycosis from representative geographical regions of Brazil and to compare the data with a literature review. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted on 108,304 biopsies obtained from 1953 to 2016 at six Brazilian oral and maxillofacial pathology services. Demographic data and clinical and histopathological diagnosis of oral paracoccidioidomycosis were evaluated. A literature review of oral paracoccidioidomycosis studies published in three electronic databases was carried out. Data were analysed descriptively. RESULTS: A total of 320 cases of oral paracoccidioidomycosis were surveyed (0.3% of the oral lesions at the centres studied). The lesions were more frequent among male patients. The gingiva/alveolar ridge was the most affected site. Mean age of affected individuals was 51.3 years (±11.7). The literature review showed a higher incidence of oral paracoccidioidomycosis in the south-east and south regions of Brazil. Male individuals and individuals between 50 and 59 years were most affected. CONCLUSIONS: Oral paracoccidioidomycosis is an uncommon lesion observed in oral biopsy samples. The differences in the relative frequency of oral paracoccidioidomycosis are related to geographical variations. Men between 50 and 59 years are more affected. This study provides helpful information for clinicians in the diagnosis of oral paracoccidioidomycosis.
