Methods:A cross-sectional study was carried out with a birth-cohort of 181 voluntary 13 yearold adolescents belonging to a grouping of schools in Castelo de Paiva. BMI-for-age, DMFT and oral hygiene habits were recorded. The Z-test, Mann-Whitney and the Kruskal-Wallis tests were used for univariate comparisons. Multivariate association between independent factors and DMFT > 0 or DMFT > 6 was assessed using backward stepwise binary logistic multivariate regression analysis (0.05 for covariate inclusion and 0.10 for exclusion).Results: The mean DMFT was 4.04 (±2.79) with caries experience affecting 90.1% of adolescents and the majority had normal BMI-for-age (69.1%), 3.3% below normal and 27.6% had weight over normal.Discussion: No significant differences were found for DMFT according to gender, school attendance, oral hygiene frequency or BMI-for-age. In multivariate analysis the oral hygiene frequency was shown to be significantly associated with DMFT higher than zero (p = 0.041).For a more severe DMFT value (DMFT > 6) this frequency was not statistically important, whereas the lack of performing oral hygiene at night showed to be a significant risk factor for severe DMFT (p = 0.006). The oral hygiene habits showed to be a better predictor than BMI-for-age for the development of caries disease prediction.Conclusion: This study confirms that no association could be assigned between BMI-for-age and dental caries in children especially in permanent dentition. article under the CC BY-NC-ND license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/). 4 r e v p o r t e s t o m a t o l m e d d e n t c i r m a x i l o f a c . 2 0 1 5;5 6(1):3-8 Associação entre IMC e cárie aos 13 anos de idade no Concelho de Castelo de Paiva Palavras-chave: Adolescentes Cárie dentária Obesidade Sobrepeso r e s u m o Objetivos: O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a associação entre cárie dentária e índice de Massa Corporal ajustado para idade (IMC-para-idade). Métodos: Estudo transversal populacional realizado em 181 voluntários adolescentes de uma coorte de 13 anos de idade, pertencentes a agrupamentos de escolas em Castelo de Paiva. Foram registados o IMC-para-idade, o CPOD e hábitos de higiene oral. Os testes Z,Mann-Whitney e Kruskal-Wallis foram usados para comparaç ões univariadas. Análise multivariada de fatores associados com CPOD>0 e CPOD>6 foi realizada com análise de regressão multivariada logística bivariada (0,05 para inclusão, 0,10 para exclusão de co-variáveis).Resultados: O CPOD foi de 4,04 (±2,79), com experiência de cárie que afeta 90,1% dos adolescentes, sendo que a maioria tinha um IMC-para-idade normal (69,1%), 3,3% abaixo do normal e 27,6% tinham peso superior ao normal.Discussão: Nenhuma diferença significativa foi encontrada para CPOD de acordo com o...
A partir de uma visão multidisciplinar (geografia, ecologia, direito urbano, arquitetura e urbanismo) este artigo pretende abordar os potenciais riscos relacionados ao recém-aprovado Plano Estruturação Urbana das Vargens (Rio de Janeiro, Brasil). Esta avaliação será realizada observando-se os riscos potenciais em três dimensões: a jurídico-política, a urbano-arquitetónica e a geobiofísica.
