RÉSUMÉ
BACKGROUND AND AIM: Dental surgeons often play a pivotal role in the initial detection of lingual fasciculations (LFs). These involuntary micro-movements of the tongue can serve as early clinical indicators of neurodegenerative diseases, with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) being the most concerning. Therefore, it is imperative to educate dental surgeons on identifying LF and understanding the potential underlying pathologies. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to pinpoint the pathologies in which LFs could emerge as an early clinical marker. Our review focused on articles delineating patient populations exhibiting LF within broader pathological contexts, encompassing neurological and other conditions, with the aim of elucidating their etiologies. METHODS: We conducted a comprehensive literature review across four databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus). Two authors independently extracted data, with consultation from a third author when necessary. Eligible articles included those describing patients with LFs, detailing the methods of detection, diagnosis, and associated pathologies. RESULTS: Our review identified 22 articles encompassing 153 patients with LF, with an average age of 45.8 years and a female prevalence of 43%. Electromyography and ultrasound emerged as the predominant detection methods. ALS constituted the primary diagnosis in the majority of cases (91%). Additionally, other conditions diagnosed included Machado-Joseph disease (0.046%), familial transthyretin amyloid neuropathy (0.013%), Brown-Vialetto-Van-Laere syndrome (0.006%), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (0.006%), bulbospinal amyotrophy or Kennedy's disease (0.006%), and osmotic demyelination syndrome (0.006%). LF secondary to organophosphate poisoning was also documented. Symptoms associated with LF encompassed taste alterations, dysphagia, difficulty swallowing, and slurred speech. CONCLUSION: While primarily indicative of ALS, LFs may also signal diverse underlying pathologies. Healthcare practitioners should be vigilant in their detection and expedite patient referrals to facilitate early integration into care protocols.

BACKGROUND: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a very common condition in patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD). However, there is little evidence of a connection between them. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to assess the association between OSA and TMD in adult population. METHODS: Case-control, cross-sectional and cohort studies on the association between TMD and OSA were searched in the EMBASE, LILACS, LIVIVO, PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Open Grey and Pro Quest databases. TMD should be assessed using Research Diagnostic Criteria (RDC/TMD) or Diagnostic Criteria (DC/TMD) and OSA using polysomnography (PSG) and/or a validated questionnaire. The risk of bias was evaluated using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Assessment Checklists; and an association meta-analysis was performed. The effect measure included the odds ratio (OR) in dichotomous variables and a 95% confidence interval (CI). Certainty of evidence was determined by analysing groups using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE). RESULTS: Out of the 1024 articles screened, 7 met the inclusion criteria for the qualitative synthesis, and 6 for quantitative analysis. All articles were classified at low risk of bias. A positive association with OSA was found in patients with TMD (OR = 2.61; 95% CI = 2.31, 2.95). A significant association was also found irrespective to the OSA diagnostic methods applied (for studies using PSG + validated questionnaires: OR = 2.74; 95% CI = 2.11, 3.57; for studies using validated questionnaires only: OR = 2.55; 95% CI = 2.22, 2.92). GRADE was moderate. CONCLUSION: Patients with TMD presented a significant association with OSA regardless of the OSA diagnostic method (PSG and/or validated questionnaires). OSA screening should be part of the TMD examination routine. Furthermore, due to the different OSA assessment methods used and the small number of studies included, there is a need to include a larger number of studies using PSG to better elucidate this association.
RÉSUMÉ
PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to assess the effects of respiratory exercises (inspiratory and expiratory) in individuals with sleep bruxism (SB) and associated obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). METHODS: This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial including individuals with SB and associated respiratory events in OSA. Respiratory physical therapy was performed using inspiratory (Threshold® IMT), expiratory (Threshold® PEP) muscle training, and compared with a placebo group. A total of 30 daily respiratory cycles (inspiration and expiration) were performed five times a week for 12 weeks. Individuals were reassessed at two times, at baseline (T1) and after 12 weeks of training (T2) by means of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Polysomnography. RESULTS: Awakening was significantly different (p ≤ 0.05) between the inspiratory group and placebo 12 weeks after respiratory physical therapy. The number of contractions of the masseter muscle differed between the inspiratory, expiratory, and placebo groups (p ≤ 0.05). CONCLUSION: Respiratory physical therapy for OSA improved awaking levels in 80 and 67% of the number of masseter muscle contractions, when compared to placebo. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Brazilian Registry of Clinical Trials (No. RBR-9F6JKM).

Different characteristics of bars (cross-sectional shape, diameter, distal extension etc.) lead to different biomechanical behavior (retention and stress) with implants and peri-implant tissues.Aim: To evaluate the impact of implant-supported removable prostheses bar designs in fully edentulous arch (in the maxilla and/or mandibula), with 4 implants or more, on the peri-implant soft and hard tissues.Two reviewers searched for observational studies, RCT and in vitro studies, published on five main databases and three from the grey literature, without restrictions on November 2023.Of the 3049 selected articles, four met the inclusion criteria. Four RCT evaluated peri-implant health tissues in full edentulous arches with 4 or 6 implants rehabilitated with implant bar overdentures. One prospective study with 5 years follow-up evaluated the success/survival rate of implants and implant bar overdentures. Overall, 261 subjects were enrolled in our systematic review with 1176 implants. Overdentures' survival rate was 100%. There was a trend that plaque indices and gingival indices were low in all of the studies, however no statistical analysis was done due to the lack of information.Due to the lack of information in the included studies, we cannot confirm if bar characteristics affect the peri-implant tissues health.

PURPOSE: To assess the implant survival rate in mandibles reconstructed with free fibula flap after oral tumor resection after 1 year of prosthetic loading. A secondary objective was to compare immediate or delayed implant placement protocols in this population. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Electronic and manual searches were performed on different databases for controlled and prospective trials that indicated implant survival rate. This systematic review followed PRISMA guidelines. Risk of bias was evaluated using Cochrane Collaboration tools. Meta-analyses heterogeneity source assessment and GRADE evaluation were performed among studies with identical follow-ups. RESULTS: Among 305 primarily selected articles, 109 were eligible after reading the title and abstract, and 8 were included after full-text reading: 2 randomized controlled trials and 6 prospective studies comprising 140 patients and 507 implants. Meta-analyses estimated an overall survival rate of 97% (95% CI: 94% to 99%) after 1 year of prosthetic loading. The survival rate was 98% (95% CI: 94% to 100%) with immediate implantation and 97% (95% CI: 90% to 99%) with delayed implantation. Only 3 studies reported radiotherapy treatment, with no real impact on implant survival rate. Overall, 69% of tumors were benign. CONCLUSIONS: Implant placement in vascularized fibula flaps in the mandible is recommended for patients undergoing segmental mandibular reconstruction after tumor resection. Within the limitations of this study, no significant difference in survival rates was found between immediate and delayed implant placement.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this work was to determine the diagnostic accuracy of panoramic radiography in detecting degenerative diseases of the temporomandibular joint. METHOD: The protocol was registered at the PROSPERO website. To consider the eligibility of studies to be included/excluded from this review, the acronym "PIRDS" was used and appropriate word combinations and truncations were adapted in the following electronic databases: PubMed/Medline, EMBASE, Latin American and Caribbean Literature on Health Sciences, Web of Science, Scopus, and Cochrane Library. RESULTS: A total of 2572 references, after the removal of duplicates, were retrieved from the eight electronic databases. After reading the titles and abstracts, a total of 26 articles were selected for full reading, of which ten were excluded, resulting in 16 articles included for qualitative synthesis. All in vivo studies were classified as having a low risk of bias. Regarding in vitro studies none of the included studies scored below 80% in the overall evaluation. CONCLUSIONS: Both in vitro and in vivo studies consistently report a low accuracy in detecting degenerative diseases of the temporomandibular joint using panoramic radiography. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Cone-beam computed tomography offers a superior image quality without overlapping structures and a higher accuracy compared to panoramic radiography. However, panoramic radiography can still serve as an initial examination when combined with a clinical assessment. CBCT should be reserved for cases where there are evident clinical and/or radiographic alterations that recommend its use. This approach ensures a judicious and cost-effective use of CBCT resources.

The aim of this meta-analysis was to answer the following question: "Are there any differences in opiorphin biomarker concentrations between different orofacial conditions and controls?". Two reviewers searched for observational studies that evaluated the levels of opiorphin in orofacial conditions, annotated in seven main databases and three that compile gray literature. Of the 443 articles obtained initially, 8 met the inclusion criteria for quantitative analyses. Relative percentages showed a mean 24.1% higher opiorphin concentration in chronic conditions (Burning Mouth Syndrome, Oral Potentially Malignant Diseases and Temporomandibular Disorder) compared to controls; 33.2% higher opiorphin in sustained pain (Symptomatic Irreversible Pulpitis, Symptomatic Apical Periodontitis, Painful Oral Soft-tissue conditions); and 21.7% higher opiorphin after stimuli (Corneal Foreign Body, Capsaicin). Meta-analysis revealed a standardized mean difference of 0.62 [0.02, 1.22] in the absolute concentration of opiorphin in saliva for the chronic group compared to the control. The analogous values for the sustained group and the stimulated group were 2.24 [0.34, 4.14] and 0.43 [0.00, 0.85], respectively. No differences in opiorphin levels were found for 'after Local Anesthesia before Tooth Extraction' or for apicoectomy. Based on the available evidence, in general, a statistically higher level of opiorphin is found in orofacial conditions. Salivary opiorphin levels are elevated in chronic, persisted and acute pain conditions, presumably reflecting a physiological homeostatic adaptative response to different conditions such as stress or pain. Salivary opiorphin might therefore be used as a valuable biomarker in several oral disorders.

BACKGROUND: Some studies have shown burning mouth syndrome (BMS) as comorbid psychosocial and psychiatric disorders, and as well, pointed at stress as a major risk factor. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this meta-analysis was to answer the following question: 'Is there an association between BMS and stress, compared to healthy controls?' METHODS: Two reviewers searched for the effect of stress in BMS and published on five main databases and three from the grey literature. Various questionnaires and biomarkers were analysed. Of the 2489 selected articles, 30 met the inclusion criteria. Studies englobed questionnaires, such as Perceived Stress Questionnaire, Lipp Stress Symptoms Inventory, Holmes-Rahe scale, Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS-21), Recent Experience Test; and various biomarkers, such as cortisol, opiorphin, IgA, α-amylase and interleukins. RESULTS: In all studies with questionnaires, stress was significantly increased in the BMS group vs. control. Patients with BMS presented 25.73% higher cortisol levels, 28.17% higher IgA levels and 40.62% higher α-amylase levels than controls. Meta-analysis found that BMS subjects presented 3.01 nmoL/L [0.53; 5.50] higher cortisol levels, 84.35 kU/L [15.00; 153.71] higher α-amylase levels, 29.25 mg/mL [9.86; 48.64] higher IgA levels and 258.59 pg/mL [59.24; 457.94] higher IL-8 levels than control. No differences were found for opiorphin concentration in ng/mL [-0.96; 2.53]. For interleukins, no differences were founded for IL-1 ß, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10 and TNF-α. CONCLUSION: Based on the available evidence, this meta-analysis suggests more stress factors in questionnaire-based studies, and higher levels of cortisol, α-amylase, IgA and IL-8 biomarkers in BMS subjects than controls.

BACKGROUND: Non-nutritive sucking habits likely may cause occlusal changes such as anterior open bite (AOB) if they persist over extended time. OBJECTIVES: To assess if there is self-correction of AOB after cessation of non-nutritive sucking habits in children older than 4 years old, through a systematic review. SEARCH METHODS: Data sources included PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences (LILACS) databases, gray literature as Google Scholar, the database System for Information on Gray Literature in Europe (OpenGrey) and ProQuest Dissertations and Theses Database, also hand searches of the included studies references. SELECTION CRITERIA: Studies assessing occlusal changes in children aged 4-12 years with AOB traits and non-nutritive sucking habits after the discontinuation of the habit were included. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS: Two authors independently assessed eligibility and extracted data. The risk of bias was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale and the Joanna Briggs Critical Appraisal Checklist for quasi-experimental studies. The confidence in cumulative evidence was assessed using the GRADE criteria. RESULTS: Over 3100 studies, only 5 met the inclusion criteria. There is often self-correction of AOB after discontinuing the non-nutritive sucking habit, even in cases older than 4 years old. The improvement ranged between 50 and 100%. The overall quality of evidence was very low. CONCLUSIONS: AOB self-correction after discontinuing a non-nutritive sucking habit is possible, even after 4 years old, although with very low certainty in the body of evidence. It is not clear after what age the removal from the habit is unlikely to facilitate AOB self-correction. REGISTRATION AND CONFLICT OF INTEREST: International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews code: CRD42016052171. There was no conflicting interest from the review authors.

Objective: The aim of this systematic review was to determine if there exists an efficacious drug treatment for cherubism, based on published studies. Methods: This systematic review included observational case studies reporting pharmacological management of cherubism. We developed specific search strategies for PubMed (including Medline), ScienceDirect, Web of Science. We evaluated the methodological quality of the included studies using criteria from the Joanna Briggs Institute's critical appraisal tools. Results: Among the 621 studies initially identified by our search script, 14 were selected for inclusion, of which five were classified as having a low risk of bias, four as having an unclear risk, and five a high risk. Overall, 18 cherubism patients were treated. The sample size in each case study ranged from one to three subjects. This review identified three types of drugs used for cherubism management: calcitonin, immunomodulators and anti-resorptive agents. However, the high heterogeneity in case reports and the lack of standardized outcomes precluded a definitive conclusion regarding the efficacy of any treatment for cherubism. Conclusions: The present systematic review could not identify an effective treatment for cherubism due to the heterogeneity and limitations of the included studies. However, in response to these shortcomings, we devised a checklist of items that we recommend authors consider in order to standardize the reporting of cherubism cases and specifically when a treatment is given toward identification of an efficacious cherubism therapy.

This study aimed to answer the following question: What is the proportion of acceptance reported by parents toward pediatric behavior guidance techniques (BGTs)? Observational studies that evaluated parental acceptance of BGTs during pediatric dental visits among parents of non-special health care need (non-SHCN) and SHCN children were included. A search of the Cochrane Library, Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences (LILACS), MedLine/PubMed, PsycINFO, Scopus, and Web of Science databases, in addition to gray literature, was performed until October 2021. The Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist for Analytical Cross-Sectional Studies was used for quality assessment. The certainty of evidence was assessed using the Recommendation, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (Grade). Fifty-three studies with 4868 participants were included, and 42 were retained for the random-effects proportion meta-analysis. The methodological quality varied from low to high. The agreement with the BGTs varied from 85.6% (95%CI: 77.5-92.1; p < 0.001; I 2 = 93.6%; 16 studies; n = 1399) for tell-show-do to 25.7% (95%CI: 17.8-34.4; p < 0.001; I 2 = 90.4%; 12 studies; n = 1129) for passive protective stabilization among non-SHCN children's parents; meanwhile, among the parents of SHCN children, it varied from 89.1% (95%CI: 56.1-99.7; p < 0.001; I 2 = 95.7%; 3 studies; n = 454) for tell-show-do to 29.1% (95%CI: 11.8-50.0; p = 0.001; I 2 = 84.8%; 3 studies; n = 263) for general anesthesia. The effect estimates varied greatly, as substantial heterogeneity across studies was observed, thus limiting the confidence in the results. Parents were more likely to agree with basic BGTs over advanced BGTs, with very low certainty of evidence. Dentists should discuss BGT options with parents.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the proportion of young (up to 45 years of age) and older (over 45 years of age) oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) patients who report tobacco and alcohol consumption. METHODS: Observational studies reporting tobacco and alcohol consumption among young and older OSCC patients were selected in a two-phase process. Search strategies were conducted on five main electronic databases and complemented by grey literature. The risk of bias was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute's Critical Appraisal Checklist for Studies Reporting Prevalence Data. Synthesis of results was calculated with the software R Statistics version 4.0.2 (The R Foundation). RESULTS: From 6675 records identified, 38 studies met the eligibility criteria and were selected for qualitative synthesis and meta-analysis, encompassing 2439 young and 13,393 older patients. Tobacco smoking was reported by 39.5% (confidence interval (CI) = 31.7% to 47.9%, I2 = 78%) of the young patients and 48.4% (CI = 37.8% to 59.2%, I2 = 94%) of the older patients. Alcohol consumption was reported by 30.9% (CI = 22.7% to 40.5%, I2 = 83%) of the young and 45.8% (CI = 35.6% to 56.5%, I2 = 95%) of the older patients (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The comparison in the proportion of individuals reporting tobacco and alcohol consumption demonstrated that these habits were more prevalent in the older group (48.4% and 45.8% respectively) than in the young group (39.5% and 30.9%, respectively). CLINICAL RELEVANCE: As a significant proportion of patients with OSCC reported no habits, novel risk factors for OSCC need to be investigated in further research.

Abstract Objective: Lysosomal acid lipase deficiency (LAL-D) is an underdiagnosed autosomal recessive disease with onset between the first years of life and adulthood. Early diagnosis is crucial for effective therapy and long-term survival. The objective of this article is to recognize warning signs among the clinical and laboratory characteristics of LAL-D in pediatric patients through a scope review. Sources: Electronic searches in the Embase, PubMed, Livivo, LILACS, Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar, Open Gray, and ProQuest Dissertations and Theses databases. The dataset included observational studies with clinical and laboratory characteristics of infants, children and adolescents diagnosed with lysosomal acid lipase deficiency by enzyme activity testing or analysis of mutations in the lysosomal acid lipase gene (LIPA). The reference selection process was performed in two stages. The references were selected by two authors, and the data were extracted in June 2020. Summary of the findings: The initial search returned 1593 studies, and the final selection included 108 studies from 30 countries encompassing 206 patients, including individuals with Wolman disease and cholesteryl ester storage disease (CESD). The most prevalent manifestations in both spectra of the disease were hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, anemia, dyslipidemia, and elevated transaminases. Conclusions: Vomiting, diarrhea, jaundice, and splenomegaly may be correlated, and may serve as a starting point for investigating LAL-D. Familial lymphohistiocytosis should be part of the differential diagnosis with LAL-D, and all patients undergoing upper gastrointestinal endoscopy should be submitted to intestinal biopsy.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of a rapid treatment protocol of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) in patients with myofascial pain and mouth opening limitation. METHODS: Twenty patients were randomly allocated into the laser group (LG) (n = 10) and the placebo group (PG) (n = 10). Two LLLT sessions or placebo were performed. They were applied to the pain points upon palpation, with a 48-hr interval. Patients were evaluated for spontaneous pain sensitivity during mandibular movements and for oral health-related quality of life, which was assessed using the Oral Health Impact Profile for Temporomandibular Disorders (OHIP/TMD) questionnaire. RESULTS: Two patients from the placebo group were lost during the study. A significant increase in the maximum mouth opening (p = 0.04) and improvement in OHIP/TMD scores (p = 0.003) were observed in the LG after 30 days. CONCLUSION: Spontaneous pain was reduced in both groups with low-level laser therapy.

Purpose: to analyze the performance of elderly people with hearing loss compared to normal-hearing elderly people in the Pitch Pattern Sequence Test (PPS) and Duration Pattern Sequence Test (DPS). Research strategy: Electronic search strategies were individually developed for each of the following databases: LILACS, LIVIVO, Pubmed, Scopus, SpeechBITE and Web of Science. Grey literature was searched by using Google Scholar, OpenGrey and Proquest Dissertations and Theses. Selection criteria: Observational studies that evaluated elderly (over 60 years old) with age related hearing loss or presbycusis, ranging from mild to moderately severe, with different scores, compared to normal hearing for pitch (PPS) or duration pattern sequence (DPS) tests were included. The methodology of selected studies was evaluated using Meta-Analysis of Statistics Assessment and Review Instrument (MAStARI) critical appraisal tools for cross sectional studies. No restrictions regarding language, period of publication or gender were applied. Results: Title and summary of 1042 articles were analyzed after duplicates were removed. From this analysis, the full texts of 15 articles were analyzed. Five studies were included in this systematic review, three studies used the Musiek DPS version, two used the Auditec DPS and PPS version. Risk of bias was low (three studies) and moderate (two studies), according to this protocol. Conclusion: This systematic review showed no score differences between groups with presbycusis compared with normal hearing for DPS and PPS test. More primary studies utilizing the same protocol for PPS and DPS are needed.
Objetivo: analizar el desempeño de ancianos con hipoacusia en comparación con ancianos con audición normal en la prueba de patrones de frecuencia (PPF) y duración (PPD). Estrategia de búsqueda: Se desarrollaron estrategias de búsqueda electrónica individualmente para las siguientes bases de datos: LILACS, LIVIVO, Pubmed, Scopus, SpeechBITE y Web of Science. Se realizaron búsquedas en literatura gris utilizando Google Scholar, OpenGrey y Proquest Dissertations and Theses. Criterios de selección: Se incluyeron estudios observacionales que evaluaron a ancianos (mayores de 60 años) con pérdida auditiva relacionada con la edad o presbiacusia, que van de leve a moderadamente severa, con puntajes diferentes en comparación con ancianos con audición normal en PPF y PPD. La metodología de los estudios seleccionados se evaluó utilizando herramientas de evaluación crítica Meta-Analysis of Statistics Assessment and Review Instrument (MAStARI) para estudios transversales. No se aplicaron restricciones en cuanto a idioma, período de publicación o género. Resultados: Se analizaron el título y resumen de 1042 artículos después de eliminar los duplicados. A partir de este análisis, se analizaron los textos completos de 15 artículos. Se incluyeron cinco estudios en esta revisión sistemática, tres utilizaron el PPD en la versión Musiek y dos en la versión Auditec del PPF y PPD. El riesgo de sesgo fue bajo (tres estudios) y moderado (dos estudios), según este protocolo. Conclusión: Esta revisión sistemática no mostró diferencias en las puntuaciones entre los grupos con presbiacusia en comparación con la audición normal en PPF y PPD. Se necesitan más estudios primarios que utilicen el mismo protocolo para PPF y PPD.

PURPOSE: The aim of this systematic review with meta-analysis was to compare the survival rate of single crowns supported by extra-short implants (≤ 6 mm) to those supported by conventional implants, with or without previous maxillary sinus augmentation. The proportion of failures was described according to the type of complication and follow-up periods. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Randomized and prospective clinical trials were selected from six databases and gray literature. The risk of bias was evaluated by Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist, and the certainty of the evidence was analyzed with Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation. Meta-analyses were processed with RevMan and MedCalc Statistical Software. RESULTS: Single crowns supported by extra-short implants had a similar risk of failure to those supported by conventional implants, regardless of previous maxillary sinus augmentation (P > .05). Overall failure proportion of extra-short implants was 5.19%, but it varied according to follow-up (1.18% before loading, 1.56% at 12 months, 1.20% at 24 months, 2.10% at 48 months). Biologic failure complications were 37.90% for bleeding on probing, 22.45% for peri-implantitis, and 11.29% for infection. Prosthodontics failure complications were 14.88% for abutment failures and 14.73% for prosthetic screw loosening. Considering the risk of bias, most studies were classified at moderate risk. CONCLUSION: The risk of failure of single crowns supported by extra-short implants is similar to those supported by conventional implants, regardless of previous maxillary sinus augmentation or follow-up period. The most frequent biologic and prosthetic complications were bleeding on probing and abutment failures, respectively.

PURPOSE: The objective of this systematic review was to answer the question: "Is there association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in untreated adults?" METHODS: We included observational studies that evaluated the health-related quality of life of patients with OSA vs control groups, through generic and disease-specific questionnaires. The searches were conducted in six databases: Embase, Lilacs, PsycINFO, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. Additional search in the grey literature and hand search were performed, and also experts were consulted. Risk of bias was performed by using Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist for cross-sectional, cohort, and case-control studies. We analyzed the data using a narrative synthesis. The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation evidence profile was used to verify the overall certainty of the assessed evidence. RESULTS: Nineteen studies were included for qualitative analysis. Generic questionnaires showed worse HRQoL in the OSA group compared to the control group in at least one domain of the HRQoL questionnaires. The affected domains that showed statistical and clinically relevant differences were physical functioning, physical role, pain, general health, vitality, emotional role, and mental health. The certainty of evidence assessment was very low. CONCLUSION: The available literature suggests that OSA in untreated adults is associated with worse HRQoL. However, this association seems to disappear when we consider only studies adjusted for related covariates. REGISTRATION: CRD42018114746.

This systematic review aimed to determine the effects of intra-articular administration of mesenchymal stem cells from adipose tissue in dogs with hip joint osteoarthritis (OA). Clinical trials were systematically reviewed, using PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, LILACS, Web of Science, Scopus, Open Grey, Google Scholar, and ProQuest Dissertation and Thesis without publication year restrictions. References were screened and selected based on predefined eligibility criteria by two independent reviewers, according to PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines. Clinical outcomes were assessed quantitatively using clinical pain scores, physical examination, imaging examination, questionnaire responses, pain in manipulation, gait analysis, range of joint motion, and adverse effects. The risk of bias was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist. Out of 1483 articles, six met the inclusion criteria for qualitative analysis, with two randomized controlled trials and four before-and-after studies. All studies reported significantly better clinical outcomes in the adipose tissue stem cells (ADSC) group with improvements in pain and function and decreased evidence of hip OA. The risk of bias was categorized as high in the before-and-after studies and moderate to high in the randomized studies. The studies were considered heterogeneous owing to clinical results and methodology. Because of this heterogeneity, it was not possible to perform meta-analysis. Assessments of ADSC reports yielded positive clinical effects that showed improvements in pain and function and decreased evidence of hip osteoarthritis. More high-level, larger-cohort dog studies that utilize standardized protocols are needed.
