Odontologia UFES em 10 anos perfil profissional e sociodemográfico dos egressos / Odontología UFES en 10 años: perfil profesional y sociodemográfico de los egresados / Dentistry UFES in 10 years: professional and sociodemographic profile of graduates

Desde a sua regulamentação profissional, a Odontologia passou por muitas mudanças até sua consolidação. O aumento indiscriminado e sem planejamento da oferta de cursos de Odontologia resultou em um crescimento exagerado do número de profissionais no mercado de trabalho, culminando no atual momento de saturação e de acelerada reorganização do curso. Tais mudanças não se limitaram ao desenvolvimento tecnológico e científico. Observou-se, também, alteração no perfil do estudante e do profissional de odontologia no decorrer deste percurso, portanto essa pesquisa tem o objetivo de conhecer o perfil da força de trabalho dos profissionais graduados e verificar a inserção regional do Curso de Odontologia da Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (UFES). Este estudo quantitativo de natureza descritiva e exploratória analisou o perfil profissional e sociodemográfico de 533 egressos do Curso de Odontologia da UFES entre 2008 e 2018, a partir do banco de dados do Conselho Regional de Odontologia do Espírito Santo e do DATASUS. Como resultados observou-se uma maioria feminina (70%), comidade entre 25-40 anos, ativos na Odontologia (85,1%), atuando no estado no setor privado. A maioria é formada por clínicos gerais (65,2%), mas existe uma tendência à especialidade que, quando presente, concentra-se na Ortodontia, Endodontia, Prótese e Implantodontia. Os resultados confirmaram a importante inserção regional do Curso de Odontologia da UFES no desenvolvimento local. Entretanto, apesar das Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais direcionarem para um perfil generalista, voltado para a coletividade, constata-se maior tendência ao mercado privado, possivelmente pelos honorários mais atrativos (AU).

Desde su regulación profesional, la Odontología ha sufrido muchos cambios hasta su consolidación. El aumento indiscriminado y no planificado de la oferta de carreras de Odontología resultó en un crecimiento exagerado del número de profesionales en el mercado de trabajo, culminando en el momento actual de saturación y reorganización acelerada de la carrera. Tales cambios no se limitaron al desarrollo tecnológico y científico. También se observó un cambio en el perfil del estudiante y del profesional de odontología durante este curso, por lo que esta investigación tiene como objetivo conocer el perfil de la fuerza de trabajo de los profesionales graduados y verificar la inserción regional del Curso de Odontología en la Universidad Federal de Espírito Santo (UFES). Este estudio cuantitativo, descriptivo y exploratorio analizó el perfil profesional y sociodemográfico de 533 egresados de la Carrera de Odontología de la UFES entre 2008 y 2018, a partir de la base de datos del Consejo Regional de Odontología de Espírito Santo y DATASUS. Como resultado, hubo una mayoría femenina (70%), con edad entre 25-40 años, activa en Odontología (85,1%), trabajando en el estado en el sector privado. La mayoría está formada por médicos generales (65,2%), pero existe una tendencia a la especialización que, cuando está presente, se centra en Ortodoncia, Endodoncia, Prótesis e Implantología. Los resultados confirmaron la importante inserción regional de la Carrera de Odontología de la UFES en el desarrollo local. Sin embargo, a pesar de que los Lineamientos Curriculares Nacionales apuntan hacia un perfil generalista, dirigido a la comunidad, existe una mayor tendencia hacia el mercado privado, posiblemente por las tarifas más atractivas (AU).

Since its professional regulation, Dentistry has undergone many changes until its consolidation. The indiscriminate and unplanned increase in the offer of Dentistry courses led to a marked growth in the number of professionals in the job market, culminating in the current moment of saturation and accelerated reorganization of the course. Such changes were not limited to technological and scientific development; changes were also observed in the profile of students and dental professionals during this course. Thus, this study investigated the profile of the workforce of graduated professionals and verified the regional insertion of the Dentistry Course at the Federal University of Espírito Santo (UFES). This quantitative, descriptive and exploratory study analyzed the professional and sociodemographic profile of 533 graduates of the Dentistry Course at UFES between 2008 and 2018, based on the database of the Regional Dental Council of Espírito Santo and DATASUS. As a result, there was majority of females (70%), aged between 25-40 years, active in Dentistry (85.1%), working in the state in the private sector. The majority is formed by general practitioners (65.2%), but there is a tendency to specialize which, when present, focuses on Orthodontics, Endodontics, Prosthodontics and Implantology. The results confirmed the important regional insertion of the UFESDentistry Course in local development. However, despite the National Curriculum Guidelines directing towards a generalist profile, aimed at the community, there is a greater tendency towards the private market, possibly due to the more attractive incomes (AU).

Health determinants associated with exclusive breastfeeding: a scoping review / Determinantes em saúde associados ao aleitamento materno exclusivo: uma revisão de escopo

ABSTRACT Purpose: to map health determinants associated with exclusive breastfeeding. Methods: a scoping review conducted according to the JBI methodology and recommendations in PRISMA-Extension for Scoping Reviews. Data were collected in the MEDLINE/PubMed, LILACS, CINAHL, Scopus, and EMBASE databases and in the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations for the grey literature. The results were synthesized and organized into three theoretical models: distal, intermediate, and proximal. Literature Review altogether, 3,998 titles were found, of which 145 were included in the review, after all selection stages. They had various methodological designs and were published between 2002 and 2022. The following health determinants associated with exclusive breastfeeding were mapped: maternal educational attainment, family income, attendance to and frequency of prenatal care, breastfeeding guidance and practices, time until first breastfeeding, newborn's sex, maternal employment and maternity leave, pacifier use, and exclusive breastfeeding guidance at health services. Conclusion: determinants that can facilitate or hinder exclusive breastfeeding are extrinsic and intrinsic to the mother and infant. Public policies are needed to protect every person's right to breastfeeding.

RESUMO Objetivo: mapear os determinantes em saúde associados ao aleitamento materno exclusivo. Métodos: revisão de escopo realizada seguindo a metodologia do JBI, concomitantemente com as recomendações do checklist PRISMA-Extension for Scoping Reviews. A coleta de dados foi realizada nas bases de dados Medline/PubMed, Lilacs, Cinahl, Scopus e Embase e, para identificação da literatura cinzenta, utilizou-se a Biblioteca Digital Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações. A síntese dos resultados foi organizada em três modelos teóricos: distal, intermediário e proximal. Revisão da Literatura: foram encontrados 3.998 títulos e, após todas as etapas de seleção, foram incluídos 145 estudos, de diferentes desenhos metodológicos, publicados entre os anos de 2002 e 2022. Foram mapeados como determinantes em saúde associados ao aleitamento materno exclusivo: escolaridade materna, renda familiar, realização e número de consultas no pré-natal, orientação e práticas do aleitamento materno, tempo até a primeira mamada, sexo do recém-nascido, trabalho materno e licença-maternidade, uso de chupeta e orientações sobre aleitamento materno exclusivo nos serviços de saúde. Conclusão: os determinantes que podem facilitar ou dificultar o aleitamento materno exclusivo são extrínsecos e intrínsecos ao binômio mãe e bebê, e fazem-se necessárias políticas públicas que protejam o direito de amamentação de qualquer ser humano.

Instruments used to measure the quality of life related to oral health: integrated review / Instrumentos utilizados para medir a qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde oral: revisão integrativa

ABSTRACT This study aimed to identify the instruments used to measure the quality of life related to oral health (HRQoL) as well as the measures that were adapted for the Portuguese language of Brazil. This is an integrative review whose inclusion criteria were papers in Portuguese, English and Spanish, published and indexed in databases Medline (PubMed) and Virtual Health Library (BVS). One thousand two hundred and sixty papers submitted, fifty-five were considered eligible for review, from which the following information was extracted: instrument; composition; community; sample size; measured domains / dimensions; and author, year, country. Subsequently, the data related to the translation and cultural adaptation processes for the Portuguese language of Brazil were collected in order to evaluate the psychometric properties of each study. The studies of this review show that the HRQoL theme has remained in evidence since the creation of the first instruments and seems not to be close to being exhausted. Of the 36 instruments presented, only 17 articles were identified in the databases assessed for cross-cultural adaptation to Brazilian Portuguese and validation of psychometric properties. Thus, despite the enormous dissemination of instruments, the need for translation, adaptation in the language and analysis of psychometric properties was pointed out in this study.

RESUMO Objetivou-se identificar os instrumentos utilizados para medir a qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde bucal (QVRSB) bem como as medidas que foram adaptadas para a língua portuguesa do Brasil. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa, cujos critérios de inclusão foram artigos nos idiomas português, inglês e espanhol, publicados e indexados nas bases de dados Medline (PubMed) e Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde. Dentre os 1.260 artigos levantados, 55 foram considerados elegíveis para a revisão dos quais se extraíram as seguintes informações: instrumento; composição; público-alvo; tamanho da amostra; domínios/dimensões medidas; e autor, ano, local. Posteriormente, foram levantados os dados referentes aos processos de tradução e adaptação cultural para o idioma português do Brasil com a finalidade de avaliar os dados referentes às propriedades psicométricas de cada estudo. Os estudos desta revisão mostram que a temática QVRSB se mantem em evidência desde a criação dos primeiros instrumentos e parece não estar perto de se esgotar. Dos 36 instrumentos apresentados, apenas 17 artigos foram identificados nas bases de dados avaliadas quanto a adaptação transcultural para o idioma português do Brasil e validação das propriedades psicométricas. Assim, apesar da enorme difusão de instrumentos, a necessidade de tradução, adaptação no idioma e análise das propriedades psicométricas foi apontada neste estudo.

Avaliação do conhecimento dos acadêmicos dos cursos de pedagogia e educação física / Evaluation of the knowledge of dental trauma in academic students of pedagogy and physical education courses

Introdução: Traumatismos dentários são considerados problema de saúde pública, sendo a segunda maior demanda de urgências odontológicas, tendo sua maior ocorrência em ambiente escolar, atribuindo aos professores a responsabilidade de adotar as primeiras condutas. Objetivo: Avaliar o conhecimento de acadêmicos do último ano dos cursos de educação física e pedagogia da Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo frente aos traumatismos dentários. Material e método: Estudo descritivo transversal onde foram aplicados 106 questionários, sendo 55 no curso de pedagogia e 51 no curso de educação física envolvendo dados sociodemográficos e conhecimento sobre injúrias dentárias. A análise estatística foi feita por meio do pacote estatístico SPSS 20. Resultado: 98,1% dos entrevistados não tiveram treinamento sobre traumatismos, 92,5% não se julgam aptos a prestar socorro diante de um trauma, mas consideram importante (55,7%). Sobre a avulsão dentária a maioria respondeu que não reimplantaria e não possuem conhecimento sobre o tempo apropriado bem como é feito o armazenamento/transporte do elemento dentário. Conclusão: Os futuros docentes demonstraram despreparo e conhecimento deficiente diante das condutas em traumatismos, favorecendo prognósticos desfavoráveis, impactando negativamente na qualidade de vida das vítimas, no tocante a aspectos estéticos, funcionais e psicológicos. Evidencia-se, portanto, necessidade de treinamento e capacitação destes durante sua formação profissional

Tooth Loss, Sociodemographic Conditions and Oral Health-Related Quality of Life in the Elderly

Abstract Objective: To verify the association between impacts produced by tooth loss and sociodemographic variables in the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in the elderly. Material and Methods: This is an analytical cross-sectional study carried out in the municipality of Vitória/ES, Brazil, which sample was composed of 402 older adults. The Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) was used to measure the individuals' OHRQoL. For data analysis, descriptive and bivariate analyses were performed using the Fisher's exact test and the Mantel-Haenzsel test to assess the effects of combined dimensions. The significance level adopted was 5%. To assess the strength of association between independent variables and dimensions, Odds-Ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated. Results: The prevalence of negative impact on OHRQoL in the elderly was 32.6%. The greatest impact perception was found in individuals with up to 10 years of schooling (p=0.021 and OR=1.602), with need for removable partial dentures (p=0.000 and OR=2.873) and those who did not accept the loss of dental elements (p=0.000 and OR=3.064). Conclusion: Older female adults with socioeconomic class C/D-E, with up to 10 years of schooling, who lost 11 or more teeth, who declared the need for removable partial dentures, suffered greater impacts caused by tooth loss on OHRQoL.

Impact Produced by Oral Disorders on the Quality of Life of Brazilian Adolescents

Abstract Objective: To verify the impact produced by oral disorders on the quality of life of adolescents. Material and Methods: This is a cross-sectional study with a random sample of 680 individuals aged 15-19 years from public schools of Vitória, Brazil. The impact was assessed using the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP 14). Data were descriptively analyzed and then univariate analyses were performed with the Chi-square test and Fischer's exact test. The Mantel-Haenzsel test was used to evaluate the effects of the combined dimensions and Odds Ratio to evaluate the strength of the association. Logistic regression models were adjusted for each OHIP dimension Results: The impact on the quality of life was 26.2%, more frequently in the psychological discomfort dimension. The highest perception of impact was in female subjects, in physical pain (p=0.009, OR=1.998) and psychological discomfort dimensions (p=0.050, OR=1.495). In variable maternal education, children of mothers with only complete elementary education are 1.6 times more likely to have an impact on the quality of life in the psychological discomfort dimension (OR=1.6 95% CI=1.037, 2.474). Halitosis was the independent variable with the highest frequency of impact in the combined Mantel-Haenszel test, and OR was found to be 2.81 (95% CI=1.670, 3.366) for individuals who perceive halitosis. In the logistic regression analysis in the seven OHIP dimensions, the results confirm that the variables that explain impact are gender (p=0.035, OR = 1.502) and halitosis (p<0.001, OR=2.365) Conclusion: Oral health problems significantly affect the quality of life of adolescents and that subjective indicators are important tools to determine the need for treatment, improving oral health and quality of life of this population.

Association between life events after diagnosis of breast cancer and metastasis. / Associação entre eventos de vida pós diagnóstico de câncer de mama e metástase.

The objective was to examine the association between life events post diagnosis of breast câncer and metastasis. Cross-sectional study with 300 women attending a reference hospital in oncology in the Espírito Santo. Was used the instrument Life Events Units-LEU/VAS to evaluate life events reported by women. Data were analyzed by using the nonparametric Wilcoxon and chi-square tests. It was performed odds ratio calculation for the variables associated with metastasis. It was found that 21% of the sample reported at least one life event post diagnosis. Of the 46 women who developed metastases, 20 reported one or more life events (p = 0.001). The odds ratio calculated shows that having life events post diagnosis increases by 2.59 (1,37 - 4,91; p = 0,003) times the chance of developing metastasis. When considering the time between diagnosis and the onset of metastasis there was a median of 18.0 months. The study shows a relationship between life events and metastasis, however emphasize the importance of a more complex analysis to better understand the impacts of these events on the onset and progression of breast cancer.

Objetivou-se examinar a associação entre os eventos de vida pós-diagnóstico de câncer de mama e o aparecimento de metástase. Estudo transversal realizado com 300 mulheres atendidas em um hospital de referência em oncologia no Espírito Santo. Utilizou-se o instrumento "Life Events Units- LEU/VAS", para avaliar os eventos de vida relatados pelas mulheres. Os dados foram analisados através dos testes não paramétrico de Wilcoxon e qui-quadrado. Foi realizado cálculo de "odds ratio" para as variáveis associadas à metástase. Identificou-se que 21% da amostra relatou pelo menos um evento de vida após o diagnóstico. Das 46 mulheres que evoluíram para metástase, 20 relataram um ou mais eventos de vida (p = 0,001). O "odds ratio" calculado aponta que ter eventos de vida pós-diagnóstico aumenta em 2,59 (1,37 ­ 4,91; p = 0,003) vezes a chance de desenvolver metástase. Quando considerado o tempo transcorrido entre o diagnóstico e o surgimento da metástase observou-se uma mediana de 18,0 meses. O estudo mostra uma relação entre eventos de vida e metástase, entretanto, ressalta-se a importância de uma análise mais complexa para compreender melhor os impactos causados por esses eventos no surgimento e na progressão do câncer de mama.

Impact Produced by Oral Conditions on the Quality of Life of Brazilian Workers of a Mixed-Economy Company

Objective: To evaluate the impact on quality of life caused by oral health problems among administrative sector employees of a mixed-economy company, residents in Vitória, Brazil. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study used a random sample of 167 individuals. Quality of life measured by the subjective indicator OHIP-14, was the outcome considered; independent variables were sociodemographic, oral health dental services use and perceived prosthesis need. OHIP evaluates impairments in the three dimensions of social, psychological and physical functional conditions. To evaluate differences between groups, Chi-Square and Fisher's Exact Tests were used (p<0.05). To assess the strength of association, Odds-Ratio was calculated. Results: The health professional most sought by individuals in the last 12 months was the dentist (88.5%), agreed by the company (62.6%) due to prevention reasons (62.6%). The prevalence of impact caused by oral health problems was 7.8% and most recorded dimensions were physical pain (6%) and psychological discomfort (5.4%). Impact perception was greater among individuals who declared need for partial removable denture at functional limitation and psychological incapacity dimensions. Subjects that used urgency oral health services presented more impact at psychological discomfort dimension. Conclusion: The impact frequency was low. Objective and subjective measures can provide accurate analysis to support health policies directed to the real population needs.

Knowledge of Brazilian Dental Students about the Use of Conventional Fluoride Dentifrices for Preschool Children from Zero to Six Years Old

Objective: To verify the knowledge of dental students about the correct use of fluoride dentifrices above 1000 pmm fluorine for children aged 0-6 years old. Material and Methods: This is a cross-sectional study in which self-administered questionnaires were administered to 355 dental students from sixth to ninth or tenth graduation period. The questionnaires included questions regarding knowledge of the need to use, concentration, amount, frequency and potential adverse effects of the use of conventional fluoride dentifrices above 1000 ppm of fluorine by children up to six years of age, as well as the mechanism of action and the method of using fluorides that has the most scientific evidence. A descriptive analysis of data was performed. Results: 83.1% of students reported receiving content on the use of fluoride dentifrices in early childhood. Most students consider the use of fluoride dentifrice as important for the age group from zero to three years (73.8%) and from three to six years (96.4%). Only 17.7% would indicate fluoride toothpaste above 1000 ppm fluoride for children from zero to three years and 40.6% for three to six years. 76.9% believe that the amount of ideal refers to a grain of rice (0-3 years) and 61.7% of pea grain (3-6 years). 43.4% of students believe that fluoride dentifrices as an adverse effect the potential to cause fluorosis independent of concentration. Conclusion: The students evaluated were misleading about the fluoride concentration of the dentifrices indicated for children up to six years of age; on the toxicity of fluorine; action mechanism of fluorides and the scientific method of greater scientific evidence on caries disease. Failures in training and need to update fluoride contents to be taught to future dentistry professionals are evident.

Associação das Manifestações Bucais com Variáveis Sociodemográficas e Clínicas em Mulheres com Câncer de Mama / Association of Oral Diseases With Sociodemographic and Clinical Variables in Women With Breast Cancer

Objetivos: Avaliar prevalência de doenças bucais e sua associação com variáveis sociodemográficas e clínicas em mulheres com diagnóstico de câncer de mama e em tratamento. Material e Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo analítico, transversal, composto por 89 participantes. Foi realizado exame clínico ­ cárie, xerostomia, gengivite e afta; entrevista utilizando um roteiro semiestruturado para coleta de dados. Realizou-se análise descritiva dos dados. Os testes exato de Fisher e qui-quadrado foram utilizados para verificar possíveis associações, considerou-se nível de significância de 5%. Resultados: Mulheres acima de 50 anos de idade representaram 25,8% da população estudada, ensino fundamental incompleto (36%), raça/cor branca (64%), condição socioeconômica C (57,3%) e renda de até dois salários mínimos (38,2%). Houve predomínio da necessidade de uso de prótese (60,7%) devido ao grande número de dentes perdidos (média de 17,9). As pacientes com maior faixa etária apresentaram maior prevalência de xerostomia e maior número de dentes extraídos. Conclusão: Houve alterações bucais de associação aos tratamentos do câncer, como a necessidade de próteses dentárias, xerostomia, gengivites e aftas. Com o aumento da faixa etária, aumentouse também a extração dos dentes, a prevalência da xerostomia e da gengivite. Xerostomia esteve associada a raça/cor branca e uso de anti-hipertensivos. (AU)

Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of oral diseases and their association with sociodemographic and clinical variables in women diagnosed with breast cancer undergoing treatment. Material and Methods: This is an analytical, crosssectional study, composed of 89 participants. Clinical examination was performed to check for dental caries, xerostomia, gingivitis and cold sore. Participants were interviewed using a semistructured script and the data were analyzed descriptively. Fisher's exact and chi-square tests were used to verify possible associations, with a 5%significance level. Results: Women aged over 50 years accounted for 25.8% of the study population, with a predominance of incomplete elementary school (36%), White race (64%), socioeconomic condition "C class" (57.3%) and income up to two minimum wages (38.2%). There was a predominance of the use of dentures(60.7%) due to the large number of missing teeth (mean of 17.9). Older patients had a higher prevalence of xerostomia and a higher number of extracted teeth. Conclusion: There were oral alterations associated with cancer treatment, such as the need for dentures, xerostomia, gingivitis and canker sores. As the age range increased, tooth extraction, xerostomia prevalence and gingivitis were also increased. Xerostomia was associated with white race and use of anti hyper tensives. (AU)

Prevalência da mordida aberta anterior em crianças de 3 a 5 anos / Anterior open bite in 3-5 years-old children

Objetivo: Verificar a prevalência de mordida aberta anterior e possíveis associações com variáveis sociodemográficas, hábitos de sucção não nutritivos e mamadeira em crianças de 3 a 5 anos. Métodos: Estudo transversal utilizou uma amostra aleatória obtida de uma população de 388 crianças matriculadas em escolas públicas da zona rural e urbana de um município da Região Sudeste. Para o cálculo amostral utilizou-se como parâmetros uma prevalência de 20%, nível de confiança de 95% e margem de erro de 5%. Foi calculada uma amostra mínima de 150 crianças e adotado um critério de substituição para garantir o poder amostral, envolvendo o sorteio de uma nova criança sorteada da mesma escola. A coleta de dados foi realizada em duas etapas. A primeira constituiu-se de um questionário dirigido aos responsáveis para obter dados sobre escolaridade materna, idade, gênero e a presença de hábitos deletérios ­ uso de mamadeira e sucção digital e chupeta; a segunda etapa, de um exame clínico conduzido por três examinadores previamente treinados, para detectar a presença de mordida aberta anterior. O exame foi realizado com a criança sentada de frente para o examinador, utilizando espátulas de madeira com 2 mm de espessura e sob luz natural. Para a confirmação da presença de mordida aberta anterior, o examinado deveria estar em oclusão cêntrica e não ocorrer a apreensão da espátula. O Teste Qui-quadrado foi utilizado para verificar a possível associação entre as variáveis. O projeto de pesquisa foi aprovado pelo CEP da UFES. Resultados: Foi encontrada uma prevalência de 16% de mordida aberta anterior, associada ao gênero masculino (p=0,008), sucção digital (p=0,011), ao uso de mamadeiras (p=0,026) e chupetas (p<0,001). Conclusão: A prevalência de mordida aberta em crianças pré- escolares foi considerada importante e significativamente associada com hábitos de sucção.(AU)

Aim: This study aimed to assess the prevalence of anterior open bite and possible associations with sociodemographic variables as regards non-nutritive sucking habits and the use of baby bottles in 3-5-year-old children. Methods: Cross sectional study with longitudinal design used a random sample selected from a population of 388 children, enrolled in public schools, in rural and urban areas of a southeastern Brazilian city. This sample was calculated based on the following parameters: prevalence of 20%, a confidence interval of 95%, and a 5% error, which resulted in a final sample of 150 children. A substitution criteria was adopted considering a new child that was randomly selected from the same school. Data collection was performed in two stages. The first consisted of a questionnaire directed towards the parents to obtain information about mother's education, age, gender, sucking habits, and bottlefeeding; the second stage was a clinical examination, carried out by three previously trained examiners to detect the presence of anterior open bite. The exams were performed with children seated in front of the examiner using a 2 mm wooden spatula and under natural light. To confirm the presence of anterior open bite, the examined child should present centric occlusion and not bit the spatula. The chi-square test was used to verify the possible association among the variables. The research project was approved by the Ethics Committee of UFES. Results: A prevalence of 16 % of anterior open bite was found, and it was associated with male gender (p=0.008), finger sucking (p=0.011), use of bottles (p=0.026) and pacifiers (p<0.001). Conclusion: Prevalence of anterior open bite in preschool children was considered important and significantly associated with sucking habits.(AU)

Impact of Oral Problems on the Quality Of Life of Women Subjected To Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer: A Longitudinal Study

Objective: To evaluate the impact of oral problems on the quality of life of women before and during chemotherapy for breast cancer. Material and Methods: A longitudinal study was conducted on women with breast cancer at a Hospital reference, Espírito Santo, Brazil from January 2012 to January 2013. Assessment was performed at three time-points, the first before the onset of therapeutic intervention, the second after the first chemotherapy session, and the third after the second chemotherapy session. The volunteers were assessed using interviews that included the application of the subjective indicator Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14). The data were subjected to descriptive analysis based on tables of absolute and percentage frequencies relative to the OHIP-14 dimensions. McNemar's test assessed the direction of discordance, and the Kappa test measured the levels of concordance among the three assessments. The significance level was established at 5%. Results: The percent frequency of the impact of oral problems on the quality of life increased from the first (27%) to the second (49%) time-point, and functional limitation (p=0.001), physical pain (p=0.039), and physical disability (p=0.039) were statistically significant. Conclusion: Oral problems exerted a substantial impact on the volunteers' quality of life before the onset of chemotherapy, and quality of life became poorer after the onset of treatment. Patients with breast cancer require specific oral care and should be monitored before, during, and after anticancer treatment to minimize the deleterious effects of chemotherapy and improve their quality of life.

Early Weaning as a Risk Factor for Deleterious Oral Habits in 3-5 Year- Old Children

Objective: To verify the association between early weaning, sociodemographic variables and deleterious oral habits in 3-5 year-old Brazilian children. Material and Methods: Retrospective observational study with longitudinal design used a random sample of 150 children representing a population of 388 children enrolled in public schools of Domingos Martins, Brazil. Data collection was performed using a questionnaire aimed at parents / guardians. The dependent variable considered for analysis was the presence of habits - pacifier and finger sucking - and as explanatory variables: gender, age, early weaning and socioeconomic status. Early weaning was considered when exclusive breastfeeding was suspended before six months of age. Chisquare test was used to verify association among variables. Significance level adopted was 5%. To check the strength of association, Odds Ratio and 95% confidence intervals were used. Results: Significant association was found between variables age of 4 and 5 years (p = 0.030, OR = 2.193, CI = 1.029; 4.673) and early weaning (p = 0.001, OR = 5.045, CI = 2.087; 12.199) with pacifier sucking habit. Conclusion: Association between age, early weaning and pacifier sucking habits was observed. Early weaning can be considered a risk factor for pacifier sucking habit.

Quality of life of children and adolescents with cancer: revision of studies literature that used the Pediatric Quality Of Life Inventory.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the quality of life of children and adolescents with cancer of studies that applied the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 3.0 Cancer Module. METHODOLOGY: The study was carried out on the basis of data Scopus Web of Science, BIREME, EBSCO host and Psychoinfo of articles in Spanish, English and Portuguese, and published from 1998 to 2013 that used the Pediatric Quality of life Inventory 3.0 Cancer Module. RESULTS: 21 articles were selected, of which 47.6% were carried out in America, and 61.9% of editions comprehended from 2011 to 2013. The scores variation by dimensions and in general was probably related for the selection of comparison groups, as the diversity of inclusion criteria and variants may be observed for the analysis in each study. The existence of a standard dimension could not be verified either for children ́s /adolescents reports or for parents. CONCLUSION: It is concluded that the scores averages by dimensions in general have not achieved values below 30 and the largest scores by dimension are above 80. It is suggested that the treatment anxiety dimension in children ́s and adolescents ́s reports may have obtained the largest scores within each study, that is lesser than the difficulty of the children and adolescents in face of the treatment and cancer. Nursing becomes a constant presence in the life of children and adolescents with cancer and it may provide a better quality of life for developing nursing activities and the team may demistify, clarify and help in all phases of the illness and treatment.
