“…Indeed, previous research has revealed that an individual's coping strategies and self-esteem may be important determinants of OHRQoL. 38,39 Therefore, this study formed part of a larger research project which also investigated the relationship between these variables and children's OHRQoL during educational transition, which will be reported in future communications.…”

ObjectivesOral health-related quality of life is a relatively new but rapidly growing concept in dentistry. It is an aspect of dental health addressing the patient’s perception of whether his/her current oral health status has an impact upon his/her actual quality of life. Dentine hypersensitivity (DHS), which is a common condition of transient tooth pain associated with a variety of exogenous stimuli, may disturb the patient during eating, drinking, toothbrushing and sometimes even breathing. The resulting restrictions on everyday activities can have an important effect on the patient’s quality of life. The aims of this paper were to consider the concept of oral health-related quality of life and to review and discuss the literature on oral health-related quality of life and DHS.Material and methodsA PubMed literature research was conducted using the terms (“dentin sensitivity” [MeSH Terms] OR (“dentin” [All Fields] AND “sensitivity” [All Fields]) OR “dentin sensitivity” [All Fields]) AND ((“oral health” [MeSH Terms] OR (“oral” [All Fields] AND “health” [All Fields]) OR “oral health” [All Fields]) AND related [All Fields] AND (“quality of life” [MeSH Terms] OR (“quality” [All Fields] AND “life” [All Fields]) OR “quality of life” [All Fields])). Furthermore, a manual search was carried out. Any relevant work published presenting pertinent information about the described issue was considered for inclusion in the review.ResultsThe combination of the search terms resulted in a list of only three titles. The few published studies convincingly demonstrated that oral health-related quality of life is negatively affected in patients suffering from DHS.ConclusionsPatients with sensitive teeth report substantial oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) impairment. Nevertheless, knowledge about the influence of DHS on oral health-related quality of life is incomplete and, therefore, needs further research.Clinical relevanceOral diseases can lead to physical, psychological and social disability. This paper shows that DHS can have a negative impact on the patients’ OHRQoL.

“…Ten of the studies [15,19,20,[45][46][47][48][49][50][51] that conducted item-level analyses reported that the two items from the turning to religion sub-scale formed their own separate factor ( Table 1). Three of these studies [20,49,50] used a sample of university students, but overall, the range was very broad, and included diverse participants groups, such as emergency workers [45], edentulous patients with complete dentures [48], or genetic counselors [51].…”

“…PCA was the stated method of choice for four of the ten studies [15,19,46,50]. Three studies [20,45,48] only stated that they had conducted a factor analysis without further specification, two used a principal axis factoring technique [47,51], and one stated that they had used a robust weighted least squares technique with a polychoric correlation matrix [49]. Compared to the five studies that had reported that religion loaded onto a factor with other coping strategies, the ten studies that found religion to form a separate factor used considerably larger sample sizes, ranging from 132 [46] to 1534 [15], with a mean of 587.80.…”

Abstract:Religion is generally recognized as a major resource for dealing with stressful events, but its relationship with secular coping strategies continues to be debated. The present article provides a systematic review of the way in which analyses of the sub-scale turning to religion of the widely used Brief COPE [1] instrument are presented in peer-reviewed research articles, in order to investigate how the wealth of data published using this instrument can inform how religious coping relates to other coping strategies. Of the 212 identified articles that included turning to religion in their analyses, 80 combined sub-scale scores to form higher-order coping factors, 38 of which based on exploratory factor analyses of their own datasets. When factor analyses had used individual items as indicators, religious coping was more likely to load together with maladaptive coping strategies, and more likely with adaptive coping strategies when analyses were conducted at sub-scale level. To a large extent, the variation in the results from exploratory factor analyses appears to be due to the diverse and often inappropriate factor analytic techniques used to determine the factor structure of the Brief COPE instrument. Reports from factor analyses of the Brief COPE therefore have very little value when trying to make general conclusions about the role of religious coping in relation to secular coping methods.
