ASSESSMENT OF ALVEOLAR BONE PATTERN IN OBESE AND NON-OBESE WOMEN, BEFORE AND AFTER BARIATRIC SURGERY: A PROSPECTIVE COHORT STUDY.

BACKGROUND: Right and left periapical radiographs in A eutrophic example of normal bone level; in B of morbidly obese before bariatric surgery, presenting bone loss; and in morbidly obese C after six months of the operation presenting great bone loss. Bariatric surgery may have a negative impact on oral bone structure. AIM: To verify the alveolar bone pattern through radiomorphometric indices of panoramic radiography and linear measurements performed in periapical radiographs in eutrophic and morbidly obese patients before and after bariatric surgery. METHODS: The sample consisted of 31 women aged 20-35 years old, divided into two groups: obese group (GO-obese grade III) and control group (GC-eutrophic). Twenty eutrophic and 11 obese morbidities were evaluated in the pre and postoperative bariatric surgery (six months). Radiomorphometric and plaque indices were evaluated at T0 (baseline) and T1 (six months) times, in both groups. In the radiographic analysis the trabecular pattern through the Lindh visual ladder and the bone loss were evaluated by calculating the distance from the cement-enamel junction to the bone crest in periapical radiographs. Panoramic radiographs were used to measure the mandibular cortical index (ICM), mentonian index (IM) and panoramic mandibular index (MPI), in addition to the Turesky plate index. RESULTS: There was a significant loss of bone in T1 in patients submitted to bariatric surgery, when compared to eutrophic patients (p<0.05). The trabecular pattern became sparser after surgery with a visual difference. The plate index showed a slight improvement after surgery and the eutrophic maintained similar values over time. CONCLUSION: The standard alveolar bone presents greater bone loss in obese patients and worsens this standard after bariatric surgery when compared to eutrophic patients. The same happens with the trabecular pattern that becomes sparser after bariatric surgery.

Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) and the risk of obesity for critically illness and ICU admitted: Meta-analysis of the epidemiological evidence.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the relationship between coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and obesity in critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). METHODS: We systematically searched PubMed, SCOPUS, Embase, LILACS, and Web of Science for studies published up to April 27, 2020. The outcome of interest was composite poor outcome, comprising mortality and severe COVID-19. We used a standardized data extraction form to collect information from published reports of eligible studies. Heterogeneity and publication bias were assessed using I2 statistic and funnel plots, respectively. RESULTS: Nine studies including 6577 patients were selected for evaluation. The COVID-19 patients were 59.80% male and had comorbidities such as hypertension (51.51%), diabetes (30.3%), cardiovascular disease (16.66%), lung disease (15.99%), renal disease (7.49%), cancer (5.07%), and immunosuppression (1.8%). For patients with severe complications, the overall pooled event rates were 56.2% (random; 95% CI: 35.3-75.1; p = 0.015; I2 = 71.461) for obesity, 23.6% (random; 95% CI: 17.9-30.5; p = 0.000; I2 = 87.705) for type 2 diabetes, 45.9% (random; 95% CI: 38.0-53.9; p = 0.000; I2 = 90.152) for hypertension, 20.0% (random; 95% CI: 7.9-42.0; p = 0.000; I2 = 94.577) for smoking, 21.6% (random; 95% CI: 14.1-31.4%; p = 0.000, I2 = 92.983) for lung diseases, and 20.6% (random; 95% CI: 15.2-27.5; p = 0.000, I2 = 85.735) for cardiovascular diseases. DISCUSSION: This systematic review indicated the relationship between obesity, ICU admission, severe COVID-19, and disease progression in patients with COVID-19. Obese patients with hypertension, type 2 diabetes, smoking habit, lung disease, and/or cardiovascular disease should be cared for with increased attention.

ALVEOLAR BONE PATTERN AND SALIVARY LEPTIN LEVELS AMONG PREMENOPAUSAL OBESE WOMEN.

BACKGROUND: Systemic bone loss may lead to more severe periodontal destruction, decreasing local bone mineral density. AIM: A cross-sectional designed was performed to study associations among alveolar bone pattern, salivary leptin concentrations, and clinical periodontal status in premenopausal obese and eutrophic women. METHODS: Thirty morbid obese (G1) and 30 normal-weight (G2) women were included. Anthropometric and periodontal measurements (probing depth - PD, clinical attachment levels - CAL, presence of calculus, bleeding on probing -BOP, and plaque accumulation) were assessed. OHIP-14 was used for assessment of oral health impact on quality of life. Panoramic radiography was used to obtain the panoramic mandibular index (PMI), mandibular cortical index (MCI), and mental index (MI). Intraoral periapical (PA) radiography was taken to measure the total trabecular bone volume. Leptin was measured in saliva of fasted overnight women. RESULTS: Groups 1 and 2 differed in all anthropometric aspects, but height. Pocket depth, calculus, BOP, and plaque index were worse in G1. No differences between groups were found considering OHIP. Normal-weight subjects showed higher proportion of dense bone trabeculae than obese subjects for pre-molars, but not for molars. Mental and panoramic mandibular indexes did not differ and were in normal level. Leptin concentration was dependent only on BMI. CONCLUSION: Obesity affected the periodontal conditions, the alveolar bone pattern, and the salivary leptin concentration.

RESUMO Racional: A cirurgia bariátrica pode ter um impacto negativo na estrutura óssea bucal. Objetivo: Verificar o padrão ósseo alveolar por meio de índices radiomorfométricos da radiografia panorâmica e medidas lineares realizadas em radiografias periapicais, em pacientes eutróficas e obesas mórbidas antes e após a cirurgia bariátrica. Métodos: A amostra foi constituída por 31 mulheres com idade de 20 a 35 anos, sendo divididas em dois grupos: grupo obeso (GO-obesas de grau III) e grupo controle (GC-eutróficas). Foram avaliadas 20 eutróficas e 11 obesas mórbidas no pré e pós-operatório de operação bariátrica (seis meses). Índices radiomorfométricos e de placa dentária em ambos os grupos foram avaliados nos tempos T0 (baseline) e T1 (seis meses). Na análise radiográfica foram avaliados o padrão trabecular através da escada visual de Lindh e a perda óssea por meio do cálculo da distância da junção cemento-esmalte à crista óssea, em radiografias periapicais. Já as radiografias panorâmicas mensuram índice da cortical mandibular (ICM), índice mentoniano (IM) e índice panorâmico mandibular (IPM), além do índice de placa de Turesky. Resultados: Houve perda óssea significativa em T1 em pacientes do GO, quando comparada com as eutróficas (p<0,05). O padrão trabecular tornou-se mais esparso após a operação apresentando diferença visual. No índice de placa foi observada ligeira melhora após a operação e os eutróficos mantiveram valores similares ao longo do tempo. Conclusão: Pacientes obesas apresentam maior perda óssea, a qual piora após a operação bariátrica, quando comparada com pacientes eutróficas. O mesmo acontece com o trabeculado ósseo que se torna mais esparso após a operação.

Alveolar bone pattern and salivary leptin levels among premenopausal obese women / Padrão ósseo alveolar e níveis salivares de leptina entre mulheres obesas na pré-menopausa

RESUMO Racional: A perda óssea sistêmica pode levar à destruição periodontal mais severa, diminuindo a densidade mineral óssea local. Objetivo: Investigar as associações entre padrão ósseo alveolar, concentrações de leptina salivar e estado periodontal em mulheres obesas na pré-menopausa e eutróficas. Métodos: Foram avaliadas 30 mulheres com obesidade mórbida (G1) e 30 com peso normal (G2). Foram analisadas as medidas antropométricas e periodontais (profundidade de sondagem - PS, nível clínico de inserção - NCI, presença de cálculo, sangramento à sondagem - SS e acúmulo de placa). O impacto da saúde bucal na qualidade de vida foi mensurado por meio do questionário OHIP-14. Radiografia panorâmica foi utilizada para obter o índice mandibular panorâmico (PMI), índice cortical mandibular (MCI) e índice mental (MI); já a radiografia periapical intraoral (AF) para medir o volume ósseo trabecular total. A leptina salivar foi coletada no período da manhã com a paciente em jejum. Resultados: Os grupos 1 e 2 diferiram em todos os aspectos antropométricos, exceto em estatura. Profundidade de bolsa, cálculo, SS e índice de placa foram piores no G1. Não foram encontradas diferenças entre os grupos considerando o OHIP. Indivíduos com peso normal apresentaram maior proporção de trabéculas ósseas densas do que os obesos para pré-molares, mas não para molares. Índices radiomorfométricos não diferiram entre os grupos e estavam dentro de valores normais. A concentração de leptina esteve associada ao IMC. Conclusão: A obesidade afetou as condições periodontais, o padrão ósseo alveolar e a concentração de leptina salivar.

Avaliação de marcador biológico salivar para o padrão ósseo alveolar em pacientes obesas mórbidas / Evaluation of salivary biomarker for alveolar bone pattern in morbid obese subjects

O tecido adiposo pode regular o metabolismo ósseo e estar envolvido na fisiopatologia da osteoporose. O presente estudo teve como objetivo verificar a condição periodontal e o padrão ósseo alveolar por meio de índices radiomorfométricos da panorâmica e medidas lineares realizadas em radiografias periapicais, além da análise da leptina como biomarcador em pacientes obesas mórbidas. A amostra foi constituída por 60 mulheres na faixa etária de 20 a 35 anos, sendo divididas em 2 grupos: Grupo Experimental (GE-Obesas de Grau III, IMC >40Kg/m2) e Grupo Controle (GC- Eutróficas, IMC 18,5 a 24,99Kg/m2). Foram avaliadas 30 obesas e 30 eutróficas. Para avaliação antropométrica foi utilizado o IMC e medida da relação cintura-quadril. A condição periodontal destas pacientes foi avaliada por meio de índice de placa de Turesky, profundidade de sondagem, índice de sangramento gengival, nível de inserção clínica e presença de cálculo. O padrão ósseo foi avaliado por meio de análise radiográfica: 2 periapicais da região posterior inferior (direita e esquerda) por meio da técnica do paralelismo, sendo avaliado o padrão trabecular através da escala visual de Lindh e a perda óssea por meio distância da junção cemento-esmalte à crista óssea; e análise da radiografia panorâmica através dos índices radiomorfométricos. A dosagem da leptina salivar foi realizada por meio do ELISA. Foi aplicado o questionário OHIP-14 sobre o impacto das condições bucais na qualidade de vida. Teste t de Student e o Qui-quadrado foram adotados para comparação entre grupos (p<0,05). Entre as pacientes examinadas, foi observado maior índice de placa, de sangramento gengival (ISG) e presença de cálculo em obesas (p<0,05). Além de maior prevalência de sítios com profundidade de sondagem de 3mm e 4mm no grupo das obesas (p<0,05). A perda óssea alveolar foi maior em obesas, porém não foi significativa (p>0,05). Porém, foi significativa em relação ao padrão trabecular, sendo que as obesas...

Adipose tissue may adjust bone metabolism and can be involved in the pathophysiology of osteoporosis. This study aims to evaluate the periodontal conditions, the bone alveolar pattern through panoramic radiomorphometric indexes and linear measurements on periapical radiographs, as well as analysis of leptin as a biomarker in morbidly obese subjects. The sample consists of 60 women aged 20-35 years, divided into two groups: experimental group (EG- obesity level III, BMI> 40Kg/m2) and control group (CG-eutrophic, BMI 18.5 and 24.99 kg/m2). The sample consists of 30 obese and 30 normal weight. Anthropometric measures were using the BMI and haist-to-hip ratio. The periodontal status was assessed through Turesky´s plaque index, probing depth, gingival bleeding index, clinical attachment level and presence of dental calculus. Bone pattern was evaluated by radiographs: 2 periapicals lower posterior (left and right) through parallel technique, evaluated the trabecular pattern trough visual scale by Lindh and measured linear distances between cement-enamel junction to alveolar crest; and panoramic analysis by radiomorphometric indexes; and measured of salivary leptin by ELISA. The OHIP- 14 questionnaire was applied on the impact of oral conditions on the quality of life. Student´s "t" test and Chi-square were adopted for comparison between groups (p <0.05). Among the subjects examined, there was a greater plaque index, gingival bleeding (GI) and presence of calculus in obese (p <0.05). In addition, higher prevalence of sites with probing depth 3mm e 4mm in the obese group (p < 0.05). The alveolar bone loss was greater in obese group, however there was no significant difference to the control group (p>0.05). There was significant difference relative to the trabecular pattern, and obese women had greater marrow spaces, suggesting lower bone density than eutrophic (p < 0.05). Regarding radiomorphometric indexes, both groups showed values within the normal range...
