RESUMO
AIM: Maternal personality traits affect child dental behaviour and have a potential link with dental treatment methods. This study aims to evaluate which maternal personality traits affect child dental behaviour. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Research was carried out upon 60 children aged between 3-12 years, who had been admitted to our clinic for tooth extraction. All children were evaluated by means of the Frankl Behavior Scale (FBS): degrees I and II represent negative behaviours, while III and IV positive behaviour. Thirty children with FBS degree III and IV were assigned to Group I and 30 children with FBS degree I and II were assigned to Group II. Children in Group I underwent tooth extraction with local anaesthesia. Children in Group II underwent tooth extraction under deep sedation. During the first visit, the mothers were tested with the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory to evaluate personality traits. All mothers in Group I and half the mothers in Group II filled a complete and valid test. RESULTS: Group I and II mothers were compared according to the test results: scores of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) test were significantly higher in Group II (p<0.05). CONCLUSION: We hypotetise that character features of mothers of children with negative dental behaviour and positive dental behaviour are different and affect child dental behaviour.

AIM: The aim of this study was to investigate blood glucose level of desflurane and sevoflurane on blood glucose in diabetic rats undergoing acute hyperglycemia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this study, 30 male Wistar albino rats were included. Diabetes was induced by a single IP injection of streptozotocin. After the effects of chronic diabetes encountered, diabetic rats were randomly assigned into diabetic control (group DC), diabetic hyperglycemia group (group DH), diabetic hyperglycemia group with desflurane (group DH-D), and diabetic hyperglycemia group with sevoflurane (group DH-S) groups. The normoglycemic groups received an IP injection of the same amount of saline. Hyperglycemic diabetic rats were anaesthetized by desflurane 6 % or sevoflurane 2 % at a dose, by which minimal alveolar concentration (MAC) for rats would be one. The drugs were given for 4 hours within 100 % oxygen at a rate of 6 L.min-1. One hour after cessation of inhalation anesthesia, blood glucose levels were determined at 1st, 4th and 24th hours. 24 hours after the anaesthesia. RESULTS: Serum glucose was detected to be significantly lower in Group C, when compared to Groups DC, DH, DH-D and DH-S (p = 0.002, p = 0.001, p = 0.002, p = 0.003, respectively). Blood glucose levels in the diabetic groups were similar at the end of 6 weeks period, after hyperglycemia and anaesthesia induction. CONCLUSION: We found out that sevoflurane and desflurane administrations in hyperglycemic rats were both related with insignificant blood glucose level increase at early post anaesthesia period and at post anaesthesia 24th hours. We still think that patients undergoing anaesthesia protocols with acute hyperglycemia need relatively longer follow up periods (Tab. 1, Ref. 28).
