Associação entre qualidade do sono, bruxismo do sono e sonolência diurna excessiva em adolescentes Sleep quality and its association with sleep bruxism and daytime sleepiness in adolescents
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Musculoskeletal pain (MSP) is related to psychogenic factors and quality of sleep, showing that this triad is a biopsychosocial process. The aim of this study was to analyze an association between poor sleep quality and MSP in adolescents. METHODS: This study has an observational, cross-sectional character, in which 545 adolescents, aged between 11 and 15 years, were analyzed. Sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), the presence of MSP using the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire (NMQ), temporomandibular disorder using the Axis II of the Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMD) and excessive daytime sleepiness using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS). Pearson Chi-square or Fishers Exact test were used to assess the association between two categorical variables. RESULTS:The prevalence of poor sleep quality, sleep disorders, MSP and excessive daytime sleepiness were, respectively, 66.8, 9.5, 87.5 and 30.5%. An association was observed between the quality of sleep and the number of hours of sleep per night [OR = 1.49; (1.01 to 2.21)], and between sleep disorders and MSP in the upper back [OR=1.9; (1.0 to 3.3)], and the wrists and hands [OR=2.8; (1.4 to 5.7)]. However, there was no association between sleep quality and MSP [OR=1.29; (0.76 to 2.17)]. CONCLUSION: An association was found between sleep disorders and MSP, as well as between the number of hours slept per night and quality of sleep.
Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) is a term used to describe a set of clinical conditions that may compromise the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and masticatory muscles and/or associated structures, considered the most frequent cause of orofacial pain of non-dental origin. In recent years, many forms of physical therapy have been used in the treatment of TMD to reduce pain and improve the range of mandibular movement present in this impairment. Among these resources are kinesiotherapy (exercise), electrothermal and manual therapy, acupuncture, training posture, mobilizations, and biofeedback. Objectives To determine if exercises with or without occlusal splints are effective in reducing pain in patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) of myogenic origin. Methodology This systematic review was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (CRD 42019134244). Controlled trials published in PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane Library following PRISMA guidelines up to April 2022 were randomized and included. The population above 18 years, which evaluated the effectiveness of exercise with or without occlusal splints in reducing pain in patients with TMD of myogenic origin, diagnosed through the Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders, was also included. There was no restriction on the period of publication. Cochrane risk of bias analysis was performed. Results Of the five included articles, all showed a reduction of pain, but without significant differences between the interventions performed. Additionally, studies that evaluated the quality of life and mandibular movements showed a reduction in pain, but no significant differences between therapies. Conclusion The analyzed studies showed no difference in the improvement of pain, quality of life, and mandibular movements between the groups that performed only exercises or the associated treatments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
