“…Even though breastfeeding time was not assessed in the present study, children who are breastfed for less than six months are known to be more prone to have HBP as compared to those who were breastfed for a longer period, which thus suggests a protective effect of breastfeeding against HBP in this population. 34 Furthermore, birth weight is known to be associated with the appearance of cNCDs, such as obesity and diabetes, according to the conclusions in the studies conducted by Jornayvaz et al, 35 and Yu et al 36 Because this is a study with an observational and cross-sectional design, its cause-and-effect analysis is limited. Additionally, one must bear in mind the recommendation of taking blood pressure measurements in more than one visit in order to confirm the diagnosis of high blood pressure.…”

Introduction: Hypertension is a major public health problem in contemporary times and it has high prevalence throughout the world. Objective: To investigate the situation of Systemic Arterial Hypertension in schoolchildren aged 6 to 10 years in Divinópolis/MG-Brazil and associated factors.Method: This is a cross-sectional, epidemiological, descriptive and analytical study, whose population was children aged 6 to 10 years enrolled in public schools in Divinópolis-MG-Brazil. Data collection was conducted from October 2014 to May 2015. Multivariate linear regressions were used to test associations between blood pressure, socioeconomic, anthropometric, dietary and physical activity. Results:The prevalence of hypertension was 15.2% in a sample of 284 children and mean values of systolic blood pressure of 101.7 (±13.2) mmHg and diastolic blood pressure of 66.0 (±11.2) mmHg. The body fat percentage showed significant differences between the genders, with 24.2 and 26.2%, respectively for boys and girls. Significant associations were made between blood pressure levels, body weight, body mass index, waist circumference, body fat percentage, consumption of yogurt, beef /chicken, beans, pizza, sandwich and some behaviors variables. Conclusion:The presented data show important aspects of school profile in the age range 6-10 years, especially related to the behavior of blood pressure.

“…La succión digital, el uso prolongado del chupete y la deglución atípica, que implica mover la lengua hacia adelante y presionarla contra los dientes anteriores durante la deglución, pueden causar alteraciones en el patrón de crecimiento y desarrollo de los dientes y maxilar lo que resulta en maloclusiones dentales. (24,25) Hábitos alimentarios: pueden afectar la posición de los dientes y la mandíbula, especialmente si el niño tiene una dieta blanda o de textura suave que no requiere mucha estimulación, sobre la masticación.…”

Las maloclusiones dentales, según la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS), ocupan el tercer lugar de prevalencia como un problema de salud bucal, luego de la caries dental y de la enfermedad periodontal. Existen tres tipos de oclusión, que fue descrita y clasificada por Angle en el año de 1899, como clase I, clase II y clase III, basándose sobre la posición que va a tomar el primer molar permanente respecto a su antagonista.

“…However, the overall breastfeeding rates remain low and the association of breastfeeding and BP in children and adolescents has yielded controversial conclusions. Some evidence has suggested that breastfeeding has a protective effect against HBP in children in Japan [ 8 ], Canada [ 9 ], United Kingdom [ 10 ], The Netherlands [ 11 ] and Brazil [ 12 ], and the protective effects have been shown to be independent of the duration of breastfeeding [ 11 ]. However, Nobre and his colleagues concluded that preschoolers breastfed for less than 6 months were more likely to develop HBP compared to those breastfed for a longer period [ 12 ].…”

On the contrary, an increased duration of breastfeeding was not associated with lowered adolescent HBP risk in a randomized intervention [ 13 ], which was in accordance with some systemic reviews [ 14 , 15 ].…”

This study was aimed to investigate the associations between breastfeeding duration and blood pressure (BP) levels, BP Z scores and high BP (HBP) in children and adolescents. A total of 57,201 participants including 29,491 boys and 27,710 girls aged 7–18 years were recruited from seven provinces in China in 2012. HBP was defined as BP levels of ≥95th percentiles of the referent age-, sex-, and height-specific population. Breastfeeding duration was divided into non-breastfeeding, 0–5 months, 6–12 months, and >12 months. Information on demographic, parental or family factors and dietary behaviors was collected through a self-administered questionnaire. Multivariable linear regression and logistic regression models were applied to assess the relationships of breastfeeding duration with BP levels and BP Z scores and with HBP, respectively. Stratified analyses were performed to further investigate the potential subgroup-specific associations. The reported prolonged breastfeeding (>12 months) rate was 22.53% in the total population. After full adjustment, compared to the non-breastfeeding group, breastfeeding for 6–12 months was correlated with 0.43 (95% CI: −0.75, −0.11) and 0.36 (95% CI: −0.61, −0.12) mmHg lower levels of SBP and DBP, respectively. Similar decrease trends were found for BP Z scores. Prolonged breastfeeding (>12 months) was associated with 1.33 (95% CI: 1.12, 1.58) and 1.12 (95% CI: 0.94, 1.33) higher odds of HBP in boys and girls, respectively. Based on nationally representative data, there was no evidence that a longer duration of breastfeeding is protective against childhood HBP. Breastfeeding for 6–12 months may be beneficial to BP, while prolonged breastfeeding durations might increase the odds of HBP in children and adolescents.
