“…In this study, the highest prevalence of scoliosis was observed in females, with a positive adjusted association, confirming the results of studies by Lee et al 29 and Santo et al, 27 in which the authors reported female-male ratios of 4.5:1 and 1.7:1, respectively, but with no statistical association. On the other hand, Freire 5 has observed a relatively high prevalence of scoliosis in males (52.9%) compared to our study (41.5%).…”

BackgroundThe present study aimed to investigate the prevalence of scoliosis and to analyze the factors associated with scoliosis in schoolchildren aged between 7 and 17 years.MethodsThis is a cross-sectional and quantitative study with stratified random selection of public school students in the city of Santa Cruz, Brazil. The presence of scoliosis was examined, as well as the flexibility of the posterior muscle chain, socioeconomic characteristics, anthropometry, lifestyle habits, sexual maturation, and ergonomics of school furniture. In order to identify factors associated with scoliosis, the variables were divided in biological, socioeconomic, lifestyle, and ergonomic factors, and crude and adjusted prevalence ratios (PRs) were estimated by means of Poisson regression analysis.ResultsTwo hundred and twelve pupils participated in this study (mean age 11.61 years, 58% female). The prevalence of scoliosis was 58.1% (n = 123) and associated with female sex (PR 2.54; 95% CI, 1.33–4.86) and age between 13 and 15 years (PR 5.35; 95% CI, 2.17–13.21). Sleeping in a hammock was inversely associated with scoliosis (PR 0.44; 95% CI, 0.23–0.81).ConclusionsScoliosis seems to be positively associated with female sex and age between 13 and 15 years, whereas the habit of sleeping in a hammock is negatively associated with the onset of scoliosis.

“…It was far superior to that found by Nery et al, 8 in 2010, of 1.4% in adolescent students between 10 and 14 years in the municipality of Carlos Barbosa, Rio Grande do Sul; and also to the study of Holy et al 7 , in 2002, of 12.3% in municipal schools of Cuiabá, Mato Grosso, and the observations made by Souza et al, 13 in 2013, of 4.3% in adolescent students from public schools in Goiânia, Goiás. However, the prevalence of scoliosis was lower than the one reported by Vieira et al, 14 in 2011, of 26.3% in the age group of preschoolers in Londrina, Paraná, thereby stressing the importance of an early diagnosis for the implementation of preventive measures.…”

“…According to Stokes and Moreland, 11 in 1987, Adam’s Forward Bend Test was recommended for detection of scoliosis as it accentuates the deformity on the surface of the torso, being widely used throughout the world as the basis for this problem’s evaluation in schools 7 8 , 10 , 11 According to Santos et al, 12 students have minimal knowledge about the consequences of spinal deviations and about the possible causes that generate them, because they do not receive information or guidance about postural habits and disorders related to posture.…”

Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of scoliosis and the risk factors in elementary school students.Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out in 954 students in 2015. The instrument involved was a questionnaire on postural habits, socioeconomic conditions, and demographic factors. The anthropometric measurements, including height and weight, a visual inspection of the deformity of the vertebral column, the leveling of shoulders, and the Adam’s test were obtained. The sample was calculated in the expected frequency of 12.3%, acceptable error rate of 2.0% and confidence level of 95.0%. To compare the proportions, the chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test was applied. The association between scoliosis and risk factors was evaluated by logistic regression, being significant p <0.05.Results: The prevalence of scoliosis was 24.3%, higher in obese patients and students who adopted a sitting position for a long period of time. Obese students showed a 1.8 times higher chance of testing positive Adam’s Forward Bend Test when compared to normal-weight/lean and 2.1 times higher chance compared to overweight students. The sitting position for watching television increases the chance of testing positive Adam’s test in 38.0%, when compared to the lying position. Obesity increases the risk of testing positive Adam’s test in 74.0 and 98.0%, when compared, respectively, to the underweight/normal weight and overweight. Conclusions: There was a high prevalence of scoliosis in students from public elementary schools in Santos. The most influential factors for this deviation of the spine were obesity and the position adopted by students to watch television.

Resumo: A disfunção temporomandibular (DTM) é termo utilizado para o conjunto de sinais e sintomas clínicos que envolvem os músculos mastigatórios e a articulação temporomandibular (ATM).Este estudo tem por objetivo avaliar a necessidade de ajustar a metodologia para aferição de sinais e sintomas. Foram avaliados 05 adolescentes entre 10 e 19 anos, praticantes de atividade esportiva de diferentes modalidades. Foram aplicados o Questionário de dor orofacial da American Academy of Orofacial Pain; o Exame específico para DTM e Avaliação e classificação dos estágios
