RESUMEN
Cleft births surveillance is essential in healthcare and prevention planning. Data are needed in precision medicine to target upstream management for at-risk individuals. This study characterizes Singapore's population-based orofacial cleft topography by ethnicity and gender, and establishes the cleft cohort's infant mortality rate. Data, in the decade 2003 to 2012, were extracted by the National Birth Defects Registry. Trend testing by linear regression was at p < 0.05 significance level. Prevalence per 10,000 for population-based cleft live births was 16.72 with no significant upward trend (p = 0.317). Prevalence rates were 8.77 in the isolated cleft group, 7.04 in the non-isolated cleft group, and 0.91 in the syndromic cleft group. There was significant upward trend in infants with non-isolated clefts (p = 0.0287). There were no significant upward trends in infants with isolated clefts and syndromic clefts. Prevalence rates were sexually dimorphic and ethnic-specific: male 17.72; female 15.78; Chinese group 17.17; Malay group 16.92; Indian group 10.74; and mixed ethnic origins group 21.73. The overall infant mortality rate (IMR) was 4.8% in the cohort of 608 cleft births, which was more than double the population-based IMR of 2.1% in the same period. Infants with non-isolated and syndromic clefts accounted for 96.6% of the deaths.

BACKGROUND: The birth prevalence of orofacial clefts (OFCs) has been widely studied, but results are considerable varied, and epidemiological studies in southern China are few in numbers. To address this gap, we carried out a register-based study to estimate the birth prevalence of OFCs in Bao'an district, Shenzhen, China. METHODS: Data of perinatal infants born between 2003 and 2017 were extracted from Shenzhen Maternal and Child Health Management System. The overall OFCs birth prevalence with 95% confidence interval (CI) as well as subgroup analysis based on selected demographic factors was conducted. Cochran-Armitage trend tests were applied to evaluate the time trend by 5-year intervals. RESULTS: The overall birth prevalence of OFCs, cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) and cleft palate only (CPO) was 1.30 (95% CI 1.21-1.39), 1.00 (95% CI 0.92-1.08), and 0.30 (95% CI 0.25-0.34) per 1,000 births, respectively. An overall declining tendency was observed in the OFCs (from 1.83 to 1.04 per 1,000 births), specifically CL/P (from 1.53 to 0.69 per 1,000 births) birth prevalence over 5-year intervals, with statistical significance (p < 0.01). Subgroup analysis revealed that the CL/P and CPO birth prevalence was differed by infant gender, household registration, maternal age, and parity. CONCLUSION: Our findings had firstly reported the birth prevalence of OFCs in Bao'an district, and might help other researchers to plan more comprehensive public health strategies to reduce the occurrence of OFCs in further generation.

PURPOSE: More attention has been focused on the long-term side effects of treatment protocols since impressive advances in childhood cancer treatment have resulted in a growing population of patients. The purpose of this study was to investigate the disturbances of dento-facial development in children who were long-term survivors of childhood malignancies. METHODS: Fifty-three children (mean age, 10 years + 4 months) in long-term remission underwent oral/dental and radiographic examinations after completion of therapy. Crown and root malformations, gingival/periodontal status, enamel defects, discolorations, decayed and unerupted teeth, premature apexifications, agenesis, maximal interincisal opening and lateral movement of jaws, and soft tissue abnormalities were noted. Caries were evaluated by the decayed-missing-filled teeth (DMFT) index. Forty healthy children (mean age, 12 years + 4 months) belonging to the same age group and socioeconomic community were served as controls. All participants in the study were evaluated in terms of craniofacial development. RESULTS: The data of the study showed that higher prevalence of root malformation, unerupted teeth, and enamel hypoplasia were detected as a consequence of childhood cancer and/or antineoplastic therapy. Although no differences of craniofacial growth and development were observed between groups (P > 0.05), plaque and gingival index scores were statistically higher in the study group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: A range of variations in dental structures is recognized as a side effect of childhood cancer therapy in long-term survivors of pediatric malignancies that may affect their quality of life.

BACKGROUND: The Parental-Caregivers Perceptions Questionnaire (P-CPQ) is a measure of parental/caregivers' perceptions of the impact of children's oral health on quality of life. The aim of the study was evaluate the psychometric properties of the French version of the P-CPQ. METHOD: The original P-CPQ was developed in English language and has 31 items divided into four sub-scales. This cross-sectional study used the translation-back translation method. The translated questionnaire was pretested on 14 parents-caregivers to obtain the final French version. The psychometric properties were tested on 142 parents/caregivers of three clinical groups of children from 8 to 10 years old without dental/facial anomalies (presumed healthy), with oral-facial clefts and with oral-dental anomalies linked to a rare disease other than cleft, approached in the waiting room of the Centre of the Hospital Rothschild in Paris, France, where the children attended treatment. Internal consistency was assessed by Cronbach's alpha and test-retest reliability by Intra-class Correlation Coefficient (ICC). Construct validity was measured by correlations between the total scores and the global ratings of oral health and overall wellbeing, and tested using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and the factorial structure was evaluated by the partial confirmatory factor analysis (PCFA). Discriminant validity was determined using Kruskall-Wallis test. RESULTS: The mean (standard deviation) P-CPQ score was 18.73(18.79). Internal consistency was confirmed by a Cronbach alpha of 0.85. The test-retest reliability revealed that the responses to items were satisfactorily stable (ICC = 0.88). Construct validity was demonstrated by significant correlation coefficients between the total scale and the global ratings (r = 0.54 and 0.46; p < 0.001). Factor analysis with Principal Component Analysis extracted seven factors explaining 65.23% cumulative variance. Goodness-of-fit indices for partial confirmatory factor analysis were satisfactory for the 7-factors model of the French-PCPQ version. There were statistically significant differences between clinical groups regarding the total scale, thus demonstrating discriminant validity (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: This French P-CPQ version showed reliability and validity comparable to the previous versions. However, the cross-cultural structure of the subscales should be further evaluated.

Orofacial clefts (OFCs) have multifactorial etiologies. Prenatal exposure to heavy metals can induce OFCs in animal models, but evidence from studies of human subjects is scarce. We examined whether concentrations of mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), and arsenic (As) in placental tissues are associated with risk for OFCs in offspring. This population-based case-control study included 103 newborns affected by OFCs with available placental tissues and 206 controls randomly selected from 509 non-malformed newborns with available placenta samples, recruited in five rural counties in northern China. Sociodemographic information was collected using a structured questionnaire in face-to-face interviews. The concentrations of Hg, Cd, Pb, and As in placental tissues were analyzed using an inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry in helium mode. The median concentrations of Hg (7.4â¯ng/g), Cd (57.1â¯ng/g), and Pb (96.1â¯ng/g) were all statistically significantly higher in OFC cases than in controls (Hg 5.5â¯ng/g, Cd 38.6â¯ng/g, and Pb 67.9â¯ng/g, respectively); no differences were observed between the two groups in median concentrations of As. Concentrations above the median for all subjects were associated with a 2.33-fold (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.33-2.09) increased OFC risk for Cd and a 3.08-fold (95% CI 1.74-5.47) increased risk for Pb. The risk for OFCs increased with concentration tertiles, with an adjusted odds ratio of 3.06 (95% CI 1.36-6.88) for the second tertile and 8.18 (95% CI 6.64-18.37) for the highest tertile of Cd, and 3.88 (95% CI 1.78-8.42) for the second tertile and 5.17 (95% CI 2.37-11.29) for the highest tertile of Pb. The association between Hg concentration and OFC risk was borderline nonsignificant after adjusting for confounding factors. Prenatal exposure to Cd and Pb, as reflected by their concentrations in placental tissues, is associated with an increased risk for neonatal OFCs.

Introducción: La edad trae consigo cambios en la estructura y función de la cavidad bucal. Factores como el metabolismo y la nutrición pueden asociarse con la aparición de lesiones orales. El objetivo del presente trabajo consistió en describir la prevalencia de lesiones orales, alteraciones sistémicas y patrón nutricional de una muestra de adultos mayores en Cartagena (Colombia). Materiales y métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo transversal en cinco centros geriátricos en Cartagena (Colombia). Se evaluó el estado de salud bucal y sistémico mediante examen intraoral e historia clínica; además, el patrón nutricional mediante un cuestionario de frecuencia de consumo de alimentos (FFQ). El análisis de los datos se realizó mediante estadística descriptiva. Resultados: Se evaluaron 185 adultos mayores a 59 años; 51,9% corresponden al género femenino y 48,1% al género masculino. Según el estado de salud bucal, las lesiones orales observadas con mayor frecuencia fueron el tumor compatible con torus (47,1%) y fisuras en lengua (24,9%). Conforme al estado de salud sistémico las enfermedades mas frecuentes fueron la hipertensión arterial (50,8%) y la diabetes mellitus (38,4%). En cuanto al patrón nutricional, se observó un alto consumo de alimentos farináceos (ricos en hidratos de carbono complejos) (3.408±1.068 gr/semana), frutas (1.956±1.682 gr/semana) y productos lácteos (1.616±514 gr/semana). Conclusión: La muestra de adultos mayores evaluada presenta lesiones orales y enfermedades sistémicas frecuentes en este grupo poblacional. Sin embargo, la condición nutricional puede estar alterada por el bajo consumo de alimentos con alto contenido proteico
Introduction: Age brings with it changes in the structure and function of the oral cavity. Factors such as metabolism and nutrition may be associated with the occurrence of oral lesions. The objective of the present study was to describe the prevalence of oral lesions, systemic alterations and nutritional pattern of a sample of elderly adults in Cartagena (Colombia). Materials and methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out in five geriatric centers in Cartagena (Colombia). The state of oral and systemic health was evaluated through intraoral examination and clinical history; In addition, the nutritional pattern through a Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics. Results: 185 adults older than 59 years were evaluated. 51.9% correspond to the female gender and 48.1% to the male gender. According to the state of oral health, the oral lesions most frequently observed were the tumor torus-compatible (47.1%) and tongue fissures (24.9%). According to the state of systemic health, the most frequent diseases were arterial hypertension (50.8%) and diabetes mellitus (38.4%). As for the nutritional pattern, a high consumption of farinaceous foods (rich in complex carbohydrates) (3408±1068 gr/week), fruits (1956±1682 gr/week) and dairy products (1616±514 gr/week). Conclusion: The sample of older adults evaluated presents oral lesions and systemic diseases frequent in this population group. However, the nutritional status may be altered by the low consumption of foods with high protein content

BACKGROUND: Orofacial clefts (OFCs) are common human birth defects in China. However, studies on the prevalence of OFCs present inconsistent results. The overall prevalence and geographic distribution of OFCs are poorly described in China. Thus, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to estimate the prevalence of OFCs. METHODS: The systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted on the basis of an established protocol (PROSPERO 2015: CRD42015030198). We systematically searched for articles in four electronic databases, including Embase, PubMed, Wanfang Database, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) to identify relevant studies about prevalence of OFCs in China. Meta-analysis, including subgroup analysis, was conducted to estimate the pooled prevalence. RESULTS: A total of 41 studies published between 1986 and 2015 were included in our analysis. The sample size ranged from 2,586 to 4,611,808 live births. The random-effects model of meta-analysis showed that the overall prevalence of OFCs in China was 1.4 per 1000 live births (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.1-1.7). In subgroup analysis based on geographic regions, we found that OFC prevalence in Southwest (2.3 per 1000 live births, 95% CI, 1.1-4.7) was higher than that in other regions of China. There were no significant time trends of OFCs during the study period (p-value = 0.47). CONCLUSION: The overall prevalence of OFCs in China was 1.4 per 1000 live births. No significant secular trend of prevalence has been found in this analysis. Further studies need to be conducted to explore the etiology of OFC to better control the risk of this common birth defect.

BACKGROUND: Retrospective studies to assess the distribution of oral diseases (ODs) are helpful in estimating the prevalence of oral diagnoses in the population, and thus help in preventive and curative services. Prevalence and frequency data for ODs are available from many countries, but information from Chile is scarce. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This study investigated the frequency of ODs in a Chilean population. For this, we included all patients treated at the University of Talca (UTALCA, Chile) between 2001 and 2014. Patient characteristics were retrieved from medical files. To contextualize our results, we conducted a systematic review (SystRev) using Publish or Perish software (PoP), Google Scholar and MEDLINE/PubMed. RESULTS: One hundred sixty-six ODs were diagnosed, and the most prevalent groups were soft tissue tumours, epithelial pathology and salivary gland pathology. Individually, irritation fibroma, oral lichen planus (OLP) and mucocele were the most common diagnoses. ODs frequently affected unspecified parts of the mouth (including cheek, vestibule and retromolar area), gum, lips, tongue and palate. In the SystRev, the more studied diagnoses were leukoplakia, OLP and recurrent aphthous stomatitis; prevalent lesions included Fordyce's spots, recurrent aphthous stomatitis and fissured tongue. Chilean patients and SistRev shared almost all ODs. CONCLUSIONS: The results reflect ODs diagnosed in a specialized service of oral pathology and medicine in Chile and will allow the establishment of preventive/curative policies, adequate health services and dentistry curriculum

Introducción: la cirugía ortognática corrige las alteraciones del componente esquelético en las anomalías dentomaxilofaciales. Estas deformidades provocan deficiente relación de los huesos maxilares, afectando la oclusión dentaria y sus funciones. Objetivo: identificar el comportamiento de la oclusión dentaria en pacientes que fueron intervenidos por cirugía ortognática. Materiales y Métodos: se realizó un estudio observacional descriptivo con el objetivo de identificar características oclusales en pacientes intervenidos por cirugía ortognática. Se utilizaron las variables: relación de molares, guías de función lateral, tipo de masticación, interferencias oclusales en movimiento de protrusión y de lateralidad. Resultados: se observaron pacientes con relación de molares en mesioclusión, lo cual es un indicio de recidiva de la neutroclusión que había sido alcanzada. La intervención quirúrgica de mayor incidencia fue la retroposición mandibular acompañada de centralización. Existió una gran mejoría de la función masticatoria. La mayoría de los pacientes, se encontraban libres de interferencias oclusales. Conclusiones: los examinados se encontraron entre los grupos de edades de 24 a 38 años, y el sexo femenino predominó con un 60,5 %. El 13, 2 % de los sujetos presentaron mesioclusión, con mayor incidencia en los casos intervenidos con retroposición y centralización de la mandíbula. Predominó la función canina en los movimientos de lateralidad. La mayoría de los pacientes se encontraban libres de interferencias oclusales, representando el 71,1 % de los pacientes estudiados. (AU)
Introduction: the orthognatic surgery corrects the alterations of the skeletal component in dentomaxillafacial anomalies. These deformations cause deficient relations of the maxillary bones, affecting the dental occlusion and its functions. Objective: to identify dental occlusion behavior in patients undergoing orthognatic surgery. Materials and methods: an observational, descriptive study was carried out with the objective of identifying oclussal characteristics in patients who underwent orthognatic surgery. The used variables were: molars relation, guides of lateral functioning, kinds of chewing, occlusive interferences in protrusion movements and in movements of laterality. Results: patients were found with molars relation of mesiooclussion, which is an indication of recidivism in the achieved neutroclussion. The surgical intervention with higher incidence was mandibular retro positioning accompanied by centralization. There it was a great improvement of the chewing function. Most of the patients were free of oclussal interferences. Conclusions: the assessed patients were in the age-groups from 24 to 38 years, and female sex predominated with 60.5 %. 13.2 % of the subjects had mesiocclusion, with higher incidence in the cases surgically treated with jaw retroposition and centralization. The canine tooth function in the lateral movements predominated. Most of the patients were free from occlusive interferences, being 71.1 % of the studied patients.(AU)

OBJECTIVE: Evidence is contradictory regarding the association between oronasopharyngeal abnormalities and malocclusion. The aim of the present study was to assess the association between oronasopharyngeal abnormalities and malocclusion (anterior open bite and posterior crossbite) in preschoolers. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted with a representative sample of 732 preschoolers aged 3-5 years old selected randomly from private and public preschools. Anterior open bite (AOB) and posterior crossbite (PC) were evaluated through a clinical exam. Parents/caregivers answered a questionnaire addressing sociodemographic indicators and oronasopharyngeal issues. Statistical analysis involved descriptive analysis and Poisson regression (p < 0.05). RESULTS: The prevalences of AOB and PC were 21.0% and 11.6%, respectively. Being three years old (PR = 1.244; 95% CI = 1.110-1.394; p < 0.001), being four years old (PR = 1.144; 95% CI = 1.110 - 1.394; p = 0.015), absence of allergy (PR = 1.158; 95% CI = 1.057 - 1.269; p = 0.002), not having undergone nose surgery (PR = 1.152; 95% CI = 1.041 - 1.275; p = 0.006) and having a sore throat more than five times in the same year (PR = 1.118; 95% CI = 1.011 - 1.237; p = 0.030) were significantly associated with AOB. The absence of asthma (PR = 1.082; 95% CI = 1.012 - 1.156; p = 0.020), not having undergone throat surgery (PR = 1.112; 95% CI = 1.068 - 1.158; p < 0.001) and not having undergone nose surgery (PR = 1.114; 95% CI = 1.069 - 1.160; p < 0.001) remained associated with PC. CONCLUSION: Significant associations were found between oronasopharyngeal-reported abnormalities and the presence of AOB and PC in preschoolers.

Conclusion: Significant associations were found between oronasopharyngeal-reported abnormalities and the presence of AOB and PC in preschoolers.
resumo Introdução: não há consenso na literatura quanto à associação entre alterações oronasofaríngeas e as más oclusões. Objetivo: o objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar a associação entre as alterações oronasofaríngeas e as más oclusões (mordida aberta anterior e mordida cruzada posterior) em pré-escolares. Métodos: um estudo transversal foi conduzido com uma amostra representativa de 732 pré-escolares com 3 a 5 anos de idade, aleatoriamente selecionados em pré-escolas privadas e públicas. A mordida aberta anterior (MAA) e a mordida cruzada posterior (MCP) foram avaliadas a partir de exames clínicos. Pais/cuidadores responderam a um questionário relativo a indicadores sociodemográficos e problemas oronasofaríngeos. A análise estatística envolveu análise descritiva e regressão de Poisson (p < 0,05). Resultados: as prevalências de MAA e MCP foram de 21,0% e 11,6%, respectivamente. Ter três anos de idade (RP = 1,244; IC = 1,110 - 1,394; p < 0,001, considerando-se RP = Razões de Prevalência e IC = Intervalo de Confiança 95%), ter quatro anos de idade (RP = 1,144; IC = 1,110 - 1,394; p = 0,015), ausência de alergia (RP = 1,158; IC = 1,057 - 1,269; p = 0,002), não ter se submetido a cirurgias do nariz (RP = 1,152; IC = 1,041 - 1,275; p = 0,006) e ter tido dor de garganta mais de cinco vezes no mesmo ano (RP = 1,118; IC = 1,011 - 1,237; p = 0,030) foram significativamente associados com MAA. Ausência de asma (RP = 1,082; IC = 1,012 - 1,156; p = 0,020), não ter realizado adenoidectomia (RP = 1,112; IC = 1,068 - 1,158; p < 0,001) e não ter se submetido a cirurgias do nariz (RP = 1,114; IC = 1,069 - 1,160; p < 0,001) permaneceram associados à MCP. Conclusão: associações significativas foram encontradas entre as alterações oronasofaríngeas relatadas e a presença de MAA e MCP em pré-escolares.

Practitioners and policy-makers need information about the relative frequency of dental anomalies among children in their region. This study investigated the prevalence of different oral anomalies among schoolchildren in Sana'a city, Yemen. A sample of 1000 private and public schoolchildren aged 4-12 years were examined by the same examiner using disposable tongue blades. The total prevalence of oral anomalies was 15.1%, most commonly in boys (male:female ratio 3.2:1) aged 7-12 years. The most prevalent dental anomaly related to hard tissues was tooth hypoplasia (2.8%), followed by hypocalcification (2.6%), then microdontia (0.5%), macrodontia (0.4%), hypodontia (0.4%), supernumerary teeth (0.3%), tooth transposition (0.3%), dental fusion (0.2%) and gemination (0.2%). The most prevalent soft tissues anomaly was fissured tongue (4.0%), followed by ankyloglossia (1.8%), geographic tongue (0.9%), macroglossia (0.4%) and hairy tongue (0.3%). Appropriate measures need to be taken early to mitigate the negative impact and later costs of treatment of anomalies.

Introducción: Los patrones de anomalías dentarias (PAD) son alteraciones de los dientes que se manifiestan asociadas con mayor frecuencia de lo que cabría esperar por azar. Incluyen diversas alteraciones morfológicas, numéricas y trastornos eruptivos que probablemente comparten una etiopatogenia genética común. Conocemos la prevalencia de la mayoría de las anomalías integrantes de los PAD consideradas aisladamente, pero no la correspondiente a la entidad compleja. Objetivo: Analizar la prevalencia de los PAD en los últimos 100 pacientes estudiados consecutivamente en la unidad de Ortodoncia del hospital universitario Fundación Jiménez Díaz (uO-FJD). Método: Se examinaron retrospectivamente las radiografías panorámicas y fotografías intraorales de los últimos 100 pacientes de ambos sexos, etnia caucásica y edades comprendidas entre 8 y 15 años diagnosticados consecutivamente en la uO-FJD. Se registraron las siguientes anomalías: hipodoncia, microformas aisladas, tamaño dentario reducido, retraso eruptivo, infraoclusión de molares temporales, desplazamiento palatino de los caninos, transposición (CPmSup o C-IlatInf), distoangulación del segundo premolar inferior no erupcionado y taurodontismo. La asociación de dos o más anomalías se denominó PAD 'sensu stricto' y la presencia confirmada de una sóla anomalía, 'posible PAD'. Resultados: La prevalencia de los PAD 'sensu stricto' fué 18% y 'posible PAD' 16%. La de ambos tipos conjuntamente, 34%. Conclusiones: La prevalencia de los PADs es muy alta. Todo clínico debe estar familiarizado con este concepto, ya que el diagnóstico de una anomalía debe hacer sospechar la posible existencia -o posterior desarrollo- de otras, en el paciente o sus familiares (AU)
Introduction: Dental Anomaly Patterns (PAD) are dental abnormalities that are observed together more frequently than can be explained by chance alone. They include morphologic and numeric abnormalities together with eruption disorders that likely have shared genetic origins. The prevalence of some of these isolated anomalies, as hypodontia, is well known but the literature does not record the frequencies of PAD considered as groups of interrelated concomitant abnormalities. Aim: To analyze the frequency of DAP in a sample of 100 orthodontic patients consecutively diagnosed at the unit of Orthodontics of hospital universitario Fundación Jiménez Díaz (uO-FJD). Method: Panoramic radiographs and intraoral photographs of 100 orthodontic consecutively evaluated patients were retrospectively examined in order to analyze the following abnormalities: hypodontia, microforms and tooth-size reduction, delayed tooth formation, infraocclusion of deciduous molars, palatal displacement of canine, dental transposition (Mx.C-P1 or Mn.I2-C), distal angulation of unerupted mandibular second premolar and taurodontism. Ages ranged from 8 to 15 years. The association of two or more abnormalities was named PAD 'sensu stricto'; the presence of one confirmed abnormality was named 'possible PAD'. The frequency of both PADs was determined. Results: The prevalence of PAD 'sensu stricto' was 18% and 'possible PAD' 16%. Considered together both groups, the frequency of PAD reached 34%. Conclusions: The prevalence of PADs is very high. All clinicians possibly involved must recognize that diagnosis because one anomaly may be a marker of other undiagnosed or later appearing abnormalities in the same patient or their siblings (AU)

Exposures to particulate matter with diameter of 2.5µm or less (PM2.5) may influence risk of birth defects. We estimated associations between maternal exposure to prenatal traffic-related air pollution and risk of cardiac, orofacial, and neural tube defects among Massachusetts births conceived 2001 through 2008. Our analyses included 2729 cardiac, 255 neural tube, and 729 orofacial defects. We used satellite remote sensing, meteorological and land use data to assess PM2.5 and traffic-related exposures (distance to roads and traffic density) at geocoded birth addresses. We calculated adjusted odds ratios (OR) and confidence intervals (CI) using logistic regression models. Generalized additive models were used to assess spatial patterns of birth defect risk. There were positive but non-significant associations for a 10µg/m(3) increase in PM2.5 and perimembranous ventricular septal defects (OR=1.34, 95% CI: 0.98, 1.83), patent foramen ovale (OR=1.19, 95% CI: 0.92, 1.54) and patent ductus arteriosus (OR=1.20, 95% CI: 0.95, 1.62). There was a non-significant inverse association between PM2.5 and cleft lip with or without palate (OR=0.76, 95% CI: 0.50, 1.10), cleft palate only (OR=0.89, 95% CI: 0.54, 1.46) and neural tube defects (OR=0.77, 95% CI: 0.46, 1.05). Results for traffic related exposure were similar. Only ostium secundum atrial septal defects displayed significant spatial variation after accounting for known risk factors.

INTRODUCTION: The 10th revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10) includes more than 14,400 codes. The aim of this study was to study the prevalence and demographics of otorhinolaryngological congenital malformations in an outpatient clinic based of the ICD-10 Q-diagnoses used for congenital malformations, deformations and chromosomal abnormalities. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Electronic hospital records covering six years (2007-2013) were searched to identify all patients with ICD-10 Q-diagnosis. RESULTS: 2342 patients were identified. Malformations of the face and neck were most prevalent (30%). The gender distribution was equal except malformations of tongue, mouth and pharynx, where 70% of the patients were male. CONCLUSIONS: There seems to be a significant excess of ICD-10 codes for otorhinolaryngological malformations. Ten most common otorhinolaryngological malformation codes cover more than 94% of the diagnoses. In addition, the illogicalities and the possibility of coding by diagnosis, symptoms or clinical findings makes the coding suboptimal for the purposes it was originally created for. Malformations of the nose and larynx are rare compared to other anatomic localizations. The age at diagnosis of branchial cysts differs significantly from all other congenital malformations supporting the theory of cystic transformation of cervical lymph nodes.

OBJECTIVES: We studied the growth and development of children prenatally exposed to telbivudine used to treat chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in their mothers. METHODS: Maternal abnormalities during pregnancy and delivery and infant congenital anomalies, physical development status, developmental quotient (DQ), HBV vertical transmission status, and HBV vaccination outcomes of 54 infants were evaluated (2010-2013). RESULTS: No fetal abnormalities were observed during pregnancy or delivery. Postpartum, three infants (5.56%) had abnormalities: ankyloglossia, cutaneous hemangioma, and vaginal canal leak. Height and weight were within the normal range at birth and at 6 weeks, but were higher than the reference at 12 months (p<0.05). Body mass index increased gradually with age (p<0.05). DQ scores were normal (84.81%, 229/270) in 37 children (68.52%), abnormal or suspicious for a developmental delay (15.19%, 41/270) in 17 children (31.48%), and indicated a developmental delay (4.07%, 11/270) in seven children (12.96%). There were no significant differences in developmental delay between children prenatally exposed to telbivudine and controls (p>0.05). HBV vertical transmission was successfully blocked in all infants. The effective HBV vaccination rate was 98.15% (53/54). CONCLUSIONS: The growth and development of children prenatally exposed to telbivudine was normal, indicating that telbivudine treatment during pregnancy is safe and effective.

Minor physical anomalies may be external markers of abnormal brain development, so the more common appearance of these signs in homicidal schizophrenia might suggest the possibility of a more seriously aberrant neurodevelopment in this subgroup. The aim of the present study was to investigate the rate and topological profile of minor physical anomalies in patients with schizophrenia with the history of committed or attempted homicide comparing them to patients with schizophrenia without homicide in their history and to normal control subjects. Using a list of 57 minor physical anomalies, 44 patients with the diagnosis of schizophrenia were examined with the history of committed or attempted homicide, as a comparison 22 patients with the diagnosis of schizophrenia without the history of any kind of homicide and violence and 21 normal control subjects were examined. Minor physical anomalies are more common in homicidal schizophrenia patients compared to non-homicidal schizophrenia patients and normal controls, which could support a stronger neurodevelopmental component of etiology in this subgroup of schizophrenia. The higher rate of minor physical anomalies found predominantly in the head and mouth regions in homicidal schizophrenia patients might suggest the possibility of a more seriously aberrant brain development in the case of homicidal schizophrenia.
