RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To conduct a systematic review to determine the global prevalence of HPV in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Literature was searched through October 2022 in main databases to address the question "What is the global prevalence of Human Papillomavirus in oral and oropharyngeal cancer?" Studies had to identify HPV by PCR, ISH, or p16 immunohistochemistry to be eligible. Quality was assessed using the JBI checklist for prevalence studies. Meta-analyses were performed, and reporting followed PRISMA guidelines. RESULTS: Sixty-five studies were included, and most of them had methodological limitations related to sampling and the HPV detection tool. The pooled prevalence of HPV-positivity was 10% (event rate = 0.1; 95% CI: 0.07, 0.13; P < 0.01; I2 = 88%) in the oral cavity and 42% (event rate = 0.42; 95% CI: 0.36, 0.49; P = 0.02; I2 = 97%) in oropharynx. The highest HPV prevalence in OSCC was reached by Japan, meanwhile, in OPSCC, Finland and Sweden were the most prevalent. HPV16 is the genotype most frequent with 69% in OSCC and 89% in OPSCC, being the tonsils the intraoral location more affected by HPV (63%, p < 0.01, I2 76%). CONCLUSION: The evidence points to an apparent burden in HPV-related OPSCC, mostly in North America, Northern Europe, and Oceania, especially due to the HPV16 infection suggesting different trends across continents. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: This updated systematic review and meta-analysis provide sufficient evidence about the global HPV prevalence in OSCC and OPSCC and the most frequent HPV subtype worldwide.

This systematic review evaluated the available evidence on whether children with molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) have more dental fear and anxiety (DFA) and dental behavior management problems (DBMPs) than those without MIH (Prospero CDR42020203851). Unrestricted searches were performed in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Lilacs, BBO, Embase, Cochrane Library, APA PsycINFO, Open Grey, and Google Scholar. Observational studies evaluating DFA and/or DBMPs in patients with and without MIH were eligible. Reviews, case reports, interventional studies, and those based on questionnaires to dentists were excluded. The methodological quality assessment was based on the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Random-effects meta-analyses were conducted to synthesize data on DFA. The certainty of evidence was performed according to GRADE. Seven studies that evaluated a total of 3,805 patients were included. All of them presented methodological issues, mainly in the comparability domain. Most studies observed no significant difference in DFA between children with and without MIH. The meta-analysis did not show a significant effect of MIH on the standardized units for the DFA scores (SMD = 0.03; 95%CI: -0.06-0.12; p = 0.53; I2 = 0%). Synthesis including only the results for severe cases of MIH also did not show a significant effect of the condition on DFA scores (MD = 8.68; 95%CI: -8.64-26.00; p = 0.33; I2 = 93%). Two articles found DBMPs were significantly more frequent in patients with MIH. The overall certainty of evidence was very low for both outcomes assessed. The current evidence suggests no difference in DFA between children with and without MIH; DBMPs are more common in patients with MIH. This information should be viewed with caution because of the very low quality evidence obtained.

Technological innovations can standardise and minimise reporting errors in dietary assessment. This scoping review aimed to summarise the characteristics of technological tools used to assess children's food intake. The review followed the Joanna Briggs Institute's manual. The main inclusion criterion was studied that assessed the dietary intake of children 0-9 years of age using technology. We also considered articles on validation and calibration of technologies. We retrieved 15 119 studies and 279 articles were read in full, after which we selected 93 works that met the eligibility criteria. Forty-six technologies were identified, 37 % of which had been developed in Europe and 32â 6 % in North America; 65â 2 % were self-administered; 27 % were used exclusively at home; 37 % involved web-based software and more than 80 % were in children over 6 years of age. 24HR was the most widely used traditional method in the technologies (56â 5 %), and 47â 8 % of the tools were validated. The review summarised helpful information for studies on using existing tools or that intend to develop or validate tools with various innovations. It focused on places with a shortage of such technologies.

RESUMO
The purpose of this review was to systematically evaluate all the existing literature on the efficacy of treatments used to relieve the signs and symptoms associated with teething. A systematic search up to February 2021, without restrictions on language or date of publication, was carried out in MEDLINE/PubMed, SCOPUS, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, EMBASE, LILACS, BBO, OpenGrey, Google Scholar, Portal de Periódicos da CAPES, clinicaltrials.gov, and the references of the included studies. Clinical studies that evaluated the effect of any intervention to alleviate the signs and symptoms associated with teething in babies and children were included. The risk of bias was assessed using the ROB-2 and ROBINS-I tools. The characteristics and results of the individual studies were extracted and synthesized narratively. The GRADE approach was followed to rate the certainty of the evidence. Three randomized and two non-randomized clinical trials were included. The outcomes of these five articles were classified as high or serious risk of bias. Three studies using homeopathy reported improvement in appetite disorders, gum discomfort, and excess salivation. One study showed a new gel with hyaluronic acid was more effective than an anesthetic gel in improving signs and symptoms such as pain, gingival redness, and poor sleep quality. Another study applied non-pharmacological treatments, which were more effective, especially against excess salivation. Although the present systematic review suggests some therapies could have a favorable effect on signs and symptoms related to teething, definitive conclusions on their efficacy cannot be drawn because of the very low certainty of the evidence. The existing literature on the subject is scarce and heterogeneous and has methodological flaws; therefore, further high-quality investigations are necessary.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review of oral manifestations arising from oral piercings. STUDY DESIGN: Literature was searched through January 2022 in PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library and Virtual Health Library, OpenGrey, and Google Scholar to address the question, "Is there an association between oral piercings and oral alterations, complications, or lesions?" Quality was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute appraisal tools. Meta-analyses were performed, and certainty of evidence was assessed through Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE). Reporting followed Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. RESULTS: Fifty-four studies were included, with 15 achieving good methodological quality. Periodontal and tooth damage were the most reported, followed by soft tissue/mucosal injuries, speech disorders, chewing, soft plaque, and saliva. Pain was the most reported complication, followed by infection, swelling, bleeding, inflammation, allergy, and adornment aspiration. Meta-analyses revealed that 33% of participants with piercings had gingival recession (GR) (event rate [ER] = 0.329). In participants with piercings, ER values for nonspecified dental damage (NSDD), tooth chipping, wear/abrasion, and dental fracture (DF) were 27% (ER = 0.270), 22% (ER = 0.219), 34% (ER = 0.344), and 34% (ER = 0.338), respectively. Certainty of evidence was very low. CONCLUSIONS: Alterations, complications, and lesions were associated with oral piercings and adornments, of which GR, DF, and NSDD were the most prevalent.
RESUMO
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Although studies have explored the physical and mechanical properties of different composite resins with the preheating technique, evidence that the use of preheated restorative composite resin as a luting agent influences the adaptation of fixed dental prostheses is lacking. PURPOSE: The purpose of this systematic review was to answer the question: Does the use of preheated restorative composite resin as a luting agent influence the adaptation of fixed dental prostheses? MATERIAL AND METHODS: Seven databases and nonpeer-reviewed literature were searched, without language or year restrictions. Studies directly comparing the adaptation of fixed dental prostheses cemented with preheated restorative composite resin or resin cement were considered eligible for inclusion. Assessment of the risk of bias was based on a 9-item checklist. RESULTS: Of 2109 retrieved articles, 4 in vitro studies met the inclusion criteria. Three of them concluded that preheated restorative composite resin produced a greater mismatch than resin cement, and the remaining study reported that composite resin improved the adaptation of fixed dental prostheses. All included studies had a medium risk of bias. The high level of heterogeneity among the studies precluded meta-analysis. CONCLUSIONS: The use of preheated restorative composite resin as a luting agent seems to negatively influence the adaptation of fixed dental prostheses. It was not possible to evaluate whether variables such as the formulation of the resin material or its heating time and temperature influence the adaptation of fixed dental prostheses because of the high heterogeneity of the included studies.
RESUMO
This review evaluated the knowledge of health professionals (HP) about breastfeeding and factors that leading the weaning. A search was performed in four electronics databases and the grey literature. The search strategy included Mesh terms and synonyms. No language or date restrictions were adopted. Studies that evaluated the knowledge of HP about breastfeeding and weaning were considered eligible. The studies retrieved by the searches were evaluated by two independently examiners. From 1,417 studies retrieved, 35 were included. Many countries and professionals from different health areas were analyzed. No studies evaluated the dentists' knowledge. Although the included HP know the benefits of breastfeeding for health, the length of breastfeeding recommended by the World Health Organization, exclusive or not, was not aligned with all professionals' endorsement. Information about weaning is scarce; however, HP are mindful of the main potential causes of early weaning. The knowledge of HP is conflicting about breastfeeding and unusual about weaning. Furthermore, no studies were found that presented data on the knowledge of dentists on the subject. Thus, assessments of dentists' knowledge and education measures for HP are necessary since they are frequently questioned about these issues.

OBJECTIVE: To systematically evaluate all the evidence assessing variations in the depth of the curve of Spee (COS) according to the presence/absence of different dentoskeletal characteristics. SEARCH METHODS AND ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: The eligibility criteria were outlined following the PECO framework, as follows: studies evaluating individuals with complete permanent dentition including second molars (P), which compared a group with a certain dentoskeletal variation (E) versus another group without the variation (C), regarding the depth of the COS (O). MEDLINE (via PubMed), Scopus, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, LILACS and BBO (via Virtual Health Library), OpenGrey, and Google Scholar were searched up to September 2021 to identify eligible reports. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS: Duplicates were removed from all the records retrieved. The selection process and data collection were performed independently by two review members. The risk of bias was also assessed independently and in duplicate, using the guideline described by Fowkes and Fulton. Several meta-analyses (α = 0.05) were conducted to estimate the mean differences (MD) or standardized mean differences (SMD) in the depth of COS between individuals presenting or not certain dentoskeletal characteristics. The certainty of evidence was assessed using the GRADE tool. RESULTS: Thirty-five studies were selected for qualitative synthesis, and 29 of them for quantitative synthesis. All studies had methodological limitations that affected the risk of bias and increased the likelihood that results were due to chance. Syntheses showed that Class II malocclusion (SMD = 0.87; 95% CI: 0.61, 1.13; P < 0.00001; six datasets including 260 subjects analysed), Class II division 1 (SMD = 1.09; 95% CI: 0.62, 1.56; P < 0.00001; 14 datasets including 823 subjects analysed) and Class II division 2 (SMD = 2.65; 95% CI: 1.51, 3.79; P < 0.00001; eight datasets including 476 subjects analysed) had deeper COS than Class I malocclusion. The skeletal Class II also presented higher COS values than skeletal Class I (SMD = 0.57; 95% CI: 0.02, 1.12; P = 0.04; four datasets including 299 subjects analysed). Individuals with Class III malocclusion had flatter COS than the subjects having Class I malocclusion (SMD = -0.57; 95% CI: -1.07, -0.08; P = 0.02; nine datasets including 505 individuals analysed). No difference was shown in the COS depth between skeletal Class III and Class I (P > 0.05). Deep bite individuals had higher COS depth than those with normal overbite (MD = 0.61; 95% CI: 0.41, 0.82; P < 0.00001; two datasets including 250 subjects analysed). In addition, hypodivergent individuals presented deeper COS than normodivergents (SMD = 0.62; 95% CI: 0.37, 0.86; P < 0.00001; six datasets including 305 subjects analysed), and there was no significant difference in the COS depth between hyperdivergent and normodivergent individuals (P = 0.66). The certainty of evidence was rated as very low for all the syntheses. LIMITATIONS: All the quantitative syntheses included results from studies with methodological flaws. Therefore, they are potentially biased. Moreover, the evidence was also mainly affected in terms of the inconsistency of the results and the imprecision of the estimates. CONCLUSIONS: Although an apparent influence of dentoskeletal Class II, Class III malocclusion, deep bite, and the hypodivergent skeletal pattern on the depth of the COS is suggested, it is not possible to make definitive conclusions on the matter due to the very low certainty of the evidence. Further high-quality research is necessary.

Resumo Esta revisão avaliou o conhecimento dos profissionais de saúde (PS) sobre amamentação e fatores que levam ao desmame. Realizou-se buscas em quatro bancos de dados eletrônicos e literatura cinzenta. A estratégia de busca incluiu termos Mesh e sinônimos. Não se adotou restrição de idioma ou data. Estudos avaliando o conhecimento dos PS sobre amamentação e desmame foram elegíveis. Estudos recuperados pelas buscas foram avaliados por dois examinadores independentes. Dos 1.417 estudos recuperados, 35 foram incluídos. Muitos países e PS de diferentes áreas foram analisados. Nenhum estudo avaliou o conhecimento dos dentistas. Embora os PS conheçam os benefícios da amamentação, a duração recomendada pela Organização Mundial da Saúde, exclusiva ou não, não está alinhada com o endosso de todos os PS. Considerando o desmame, a informação é escassa. No entanto, os PS estão atentos às principais causas potenciais do desmame precoce. O conhecimento dos PS é conflitante sobre amamentação e incomum sobre o desmame. Não foram encontrados estudos que apresentassem dados sobre o conhecimento de dentistas sobre a temática. Investigações quanto ao conhecimento dos mesmos e medidas de educação para todos os PS são necessárias, considerando que são frequentemente questionados sobre o tema.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: A consensus on whether to use an adhesive layer on glass-ceramics after etching with hydrofluoric acid and applying a silane-coupling agent is lacking. PURPOSE: The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to determine whether adhesive layer application after etching and silanization influences the bond strength values of glass-ceramics to resin-based materials. MATERIAL AND METHODS: PubMed, ISI Web of Science, and Scopus electronic databases were searched to select in vitro studies comparing bond strength values of etched and silanized glass-ceramics bonded with or without an adhesive layer. No publication year or language restriction was applied. Data sets were extracted, and the mean differences were applied by using the Rev Man 5.3 program. The association between bond strength (shear/microshear or tensile/microtensile) and an adhesive layer application on nonaged and aged specimens was analyzed. RESULTS: Of 4727 potentially eligible studies, 54 were selected for full-text analysis, and 15 were included for qualitative synthesis; of these, 14 were used in the meta-analysis. A total of 2 meta-analyses were performed with heterogeneity varying from high to moderate among study specimens. For shear/microshear studies, both nonaged (MD, 1.36 [95% CI: -0.18, 2.90], P=.080, I2=79%) and aged (MD, 0.89 [95% CI: -1.04, 2.82], P=.370, I2=80%) specimens presented no statistically significant difference between groups bonded with or without an adhesive layer application. For microtensile studies, both nonaged (MD, -1.49 [95% CI: -2.48, -0.50], P=.003, I2=88%) and aged (MD, -3.87 [95% CI: -5.63, -2.11], P<.001, I2=97%) specimens exhibited higher values without an adhesive application. CONCLUSIONS: Regardless of the bond strength test used, an adhesive layer application did not improve the bond strength of etched and silanized glass-ceramics to resin-based materials. The influence of this adhesive layer application should be evaluated under clinical conditions.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effects of different fluoride types and vehicles when compared to water or placebo, on prevention of enamel erosion and erosive tooth wear progression. DESIGN: A systematic review followed by meta-analysis of randomized in situ trials was conducted. PubMeb, Scopus, Web of Science, LILACS, BBO, Scielo, EMBASE and CENTRAL electronic databases were searched. Studies with fluoride compounds (NaF, AmF, Sn, TiF4) and vehicles (toothpaste, mouth rinse, gel, and varnishes) compared to control (water or placebo) for control of enamel loss progression were included. Reviewers independently screened potentially eligible articles, extracted data, and assessed risk of bias. GRADE approach was used to rate the overall certainty of evidence for toothpastes and rinses under erosive/abrasive challenges. RESULTS: Thirty-two studies were elegible. Under erosive/abrasive challenges, enamel loss was significantly lower than control for NaF toothpastes [Mean difference(MD) -1.14; Confidence Interval(CI) -1.89 to -0.40] and Sn/associations [-6.02; -11.09 to -0.95], while no difference was found for AmF [-13.59; -39.7 to -12.52]. For mouth rinses, Sn/associations solutions were effective [-11.49; -16.62 to -6.37], but NaF showed no significant effect [-2.83; -8.04 to 2.38]. CONCLUSION: Overall, fluoride products are able to reduce enamel loss when compared to control, but results must be interpreted with caution. For toothpastes, NaF provided limited protection, with moderate evidence, while Sn/associations exhibited protective effect with low certainty of evidence. For rinses, NaF was not effective, with very low evidence, while the stannnous enriched fluorides offered higher protection regarding enamel erosion and erosive wear, with moderate certainty of evidence.

The objective of this study was to systematically review the literature to verify the efficacy and safety of curcumin as a complementary therapy for the maintenance or induction of remission in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). A comprehensive search was conducted by two independent authors in MEDLINE (PubMed), Scopus, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, Lilacs, Food Science and Technology Abstracts, and ScienceDirect. The search terms "curcumin", "curcuma", "inflammatory bowel disease", "proctocolitis", "crohn disease", and "inflammation" were combined to create search protocols. This study considered randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published in any language before March 2020 that evaluated the effects of curcumin on inflammatory activity and the maintenance or remission of IBD patients. After duplicates were removed, 989 trials were identified, but only 11 met the eligibility criteria. Five of these were considered to be biased and were excluded. Therefore, six trials were considered in this review. All the studies included in the systematic review were placebo-controlled RCTs conducted on individuals with ulcerative colitis (UC). All the RCTs reported that curcumin was well tolerated and was not associated with any serious side effects. Studies show that curcumin may be a safe, effective therapy for maintaining remission in UC when administered with standard treatments. However, the same cannot be stated for Crohn's disease due to the lack of low bias risk studies. Further studies with larger sample sizes are needed before curcumin can be recommended as a complementary therapy for UC.

OBJECTIVES: This systematic review aimed to verify if there is difference in the longevity of minimally invasive techniques compared to the complete replacement for the treatment of defective direct restorations in permanent teeth. DATA: The data included randomized controlled clinical trials comparing the clinical performance of defective dental restorations treated by a complete replacement technique or minimally invasive techniques on permanent teeth. Evaluation of the risk of bias was performed using the Cochrane Collaboration common scheme for bias and the evidence was qualified using the GRADE tool. SOURCE: A comprehensive search was performed in the electronic databases: PubMed, Scopus, ISI Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, LILACS, BBO, SIGLE, followed by manual search in the reference lists of the included studies, without any restrictions. STUDY SELECTION: From 5554 retrieved studies, 10 met the eligibility criteria and were submitted to data extraction and quality assessment. The repair technique presented similar results to replacement and superior results when compared to sealing. In addition, refurbishment demonstrated to be a useful treatment for localized anatomical form defects. All the studies presented low risk of bias and high quality evidence for repair and refurbishment and moderate for the sealing technique. CONCLUSIONS: The direct restorations treated by the repair, seal and refurbishment techniques did not present a significant difference in clinical longevity in comparison to the replacement technique in permanent teeth with overall moderate quality of evidence. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The present findings demonstrated that the best treatment for defective restorations is conservative management. The evidence demonstrated here helps and encourages clinicians during the decision-making process. Moreover, it suggests not replacing imperfect restorations, but to managing them in a minimally invasive way, allowing the structure to be preserved.

Clinical guidelines are traditionally drafted by expert consensus. The benefits of mammographic screening have been questioned in recent years, owing to biases detected in the clinical trials that popularized its widespread use. Meanwhile, growing body of evidence on harms associated with mammographic screening also required a new approach, taking into account the uncertainties on the benefits and a balance between the gains and possible harms from screening. This article discusses the development of the new guidelines for early detection of breast cancer in Brazil, with details on the drafting methods and implications for the new recommendations. The new methodology features systematic literature reviews, assessment of the validity of the evidence, and the balance between each intervention's risks and benefits, ensuring greater transparency, reproducibility, and validity in the drafting process. The new guidelines also include recommendations for cases with suspicious signs and symptoms. The authors provide a detailed discussion of the advantages of the approach as compared to the traditional expert consensus model, as well as the methods' limitations and disadvantages. They also address the implications of various decisions, such as choices on study designs, screening effectiveness outcomes, definition of overdiagnosis, and methods for calculation.
Tradicionalmente, diretrizes clínicas são elaboradas a partir do consenso de opiniões de especialistas. Nos últimos anos, a magnitude dos benefícios do rastreamento mamográfico vem sendo questionada em função dos vieses detectados nos ensaios clínicos que popularizaram a disseminação dessa prática. Paralelamente, o crescente corpo de evidências sobre danos associados ao rastreamento mamográfico também demandava uma nova abordagem que considerasse as incertezas sobre os benefícios e um balanço entre ganhos e possíveis danos. O presente artigo tem por objetivo apresentar o processo de elaboração das novas diretrizes para detecção precoce do câncer de mama no Brasil, detalhando os métodos utilizados, bem como suas implicações para as novas recomendações. A nova abordagem metodológica apresenta como pilares a realização de revisões sistemáticas da literatura, a avaliação da validade das evidências e o balanço entre riscos e benefícios de cada intervenção, garantindo maior transparência, reprodutibilidade e validade no processo de elaboração. Outra inovação das novas diretrizes é a presença de recomendações dirigidas a casos com sinais e sintomas suspeitos. As vantagens da abordagem adotada frente ao modelo tradicional de consenso de especialistas são discutidas com detalhes, bem como os limites e desvantagens dos métodos utilizados. Também são discutidas as implicações de diversas decisões, como escolhas sobre desenhos de estudo, desfechos sobre efetividade do rastreamento, além da definição de sobrediagnóstico e forma de cálculo.

Botulinum toxin type A is effective in reducing excessive gingival display caused by hyperfunctional upper lip elevator muscles; however, this effect is transient. This study aimed to determine the duration of the effectiveness of botulinum toxin type A on a gummy smile. A systematic search was conducted using Medline (PubMed), Scopus, and Web of Science electronic databases, from 1970 to March 2017 with no language restriction; the search included studies evaluating adult patients with excessive gingival display who were treated with botulinum toxin and were followed-up for at least 3 months. OpenGrey and Clinical Trial Registry were also consulted. Quality assessment was applied to determine the level of evidence and bias, and a meta-analysis was performed. Of 2181 full texts, 71 were obtained, with 3 prospective studies meeting the selection criteria. The gingival display was significantly reduced to baseline with 2, 4, and 8 weeks of treatment. The gingival display considerably reduced at the baseline-2-week comparison (-4.44 mm using raw data and-4.05 mm using the standard difference) and increased throughout the weeks of follow-up. There is scant evidence to determine the duration of the effectiveness of toxin type A on a gummy smile. The effect tends to be stable until at least 8 weeks of follow-up, and the gingival exposure may not return to baseline within 12 weeks of follow-up. Well-designed randomized clinical trials with a minimum of 6 months of follow-up are necessary to strengthen the evidence.

Tradicionalmente, diretrizes clínicas são elaboradas a partir do consenso de opiniões de especialistas. Nos últimos anos, a magnitude dos benefícios do rastreamento mamográfico vem sendo questionada em função dos vieses detectados nos ensaios clínicos que popularizaram a disseminação dessa prática. Paralelamente, o crescente corpo de evidências sobre danos associados ao rastreamento mamográfico também demandava uma nova abordagem que considerasse as incertezas sobre os benefícios e um balanço entre ganhos e possíveis danos. O presente artigo tem por objetivo apresentar o processo de elaboração das novas diretrizes para detecção precoce do câncer de mama no Brasil, detalhando os métodos utilizados, bem como suas implicações para as novas recomendações. A nova abordagem metodológica apresenta como pilares a realização de revisões sistemáticas da literatura, a avaliação da validade das evidências e o balanço entre riscos e benefícios de cada intervenção, garantindo maior transparência, reprodutibilidade e validade no processo de elaboração. Outra inovação das novas diretrizes é a presença de recomendações dirigidas a casos com sinais e sintomas suspeitos. As vantagens da abordagem adotada frente ao modelo tradicional de consenso de especialistas são discutidas com detalhes, bem como os limites e desvantagens dos métodos utilizados. Também são discutidas as implicações de diversas decisões, como escolhas sobre desenhos de estudo, desfechos sobre efetividade do rastreamento, além da definição de sobrediagnóstico e forma de cálculo.

Clinical guidelines are traditionally drafted by expert consensus. The benefits of mammographic screening have been questioned in recent years, owing to biases detected in the clinical trials that popularized its widespread use. Meanwhile, growing body of evidence on harms associated with mammographic screening also required a new approach, taking into account the uncertainties on the benefits and a balance between the gains and possible harms from screening. This article discusses the development of the new guidelines for early detection of breast cancer in Brazil, with details on the drafting methods and implications for the new recommendations. The new methodology features systematic literature reviews, assessment of the validity of the evidence, and the balance between each intervention's risks and benefits, ensuring greater transparency, reproducibility, and validity in the drafting process. The new guidelines also include recommendations for cases with suspicious signs and symptoms. The authors provide a detailed discussion of the advantages of the approach as compared to the traditional expert consensus model, as well as the methods' limitations and disadvantages. They also address the implications of various decisions, such as choices on study designs, screening effectiveness outcomes, definition of overdiagnosis, and methods for calculation.

BACKGROUND/AIM: The association between trauma and caries is still controversial in the literature. The aim of this study was to evaluate the possible association between caries and dental trauma through a systematic review with meta-analysis. DESIGN: A systematic literature search was performed in PubMed, Lilacs, BBO, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Open Grey databases. The MeSH terms used were 'Tooth injuries', 'Tooth fractures', 'Tooth avulsion', 'Tooth movement'; 'Dental caries'; 'DMF index'; and 'Tooth demineralization'. MeSH synonyms, related terms, and free terms were included. The inclusion criteria comprised clinical investigations of subjects with and without caries that had suffered dental trauma. Quality assessment and bias control were carried out. Meta-analysis was performed using the comprehensive meta-analysis software (version 3.2). Heterogeneity was assessed using the I2 index, and the odds ratio was also calculated (P < 0.05). RESULTS: From 1290 abstracts, seven met the inclusion criteria. All studies had high methodological quality and five were included in the meta-analysis. The results demonstrated a positive association (P < 0.001) between dental trauma and dental caries in permanent teeth [OR: 1.490, 95%, CI: 1.209-1.835]. However, for children with primary teeth, the results showed a negative association (P = 0.006) between dental trauma and caries [OR: 0.706, 95%, CI: 0.550-0.906]. CONCLUSIONS: The results demonstrated positive and negative association between the presence of caries and dental trauma in permanent and primary teeth, respectively.
