“…The overin- . These results are consistent with the interpretation that caring for a child with a disability reduces the possibility that caregivers will dedicate themselves to paid work, mainly full-time work 33 , which can lead to a decrease in family income and generate frustration and dissatisfaction 34 . The findings indicated that for most caregivers, the per capita income of the studied groups was low, which is similar to the result found by Raina et al 35 in a study with parents of children with Cerebral Palsy (CP).…”

“…Among the most cited religions, Catholic and Evangelical prevailed, portraying the distribution of the Brazilian population according to religion, considering that based on data from the 2010 demographic census, published by IBGE, Brazil is still considered the country with the largest number of Catholics in the world and the Evangelical Church, which has been expanding considerably in recent years, is the second largest religious group in this country 33 . In the sample studied, it was observed that most of the caregivers of the study group reported being affected by some health problem.…”

Background:Children with Cerebral palsy need to be cared like other children, the same as other children do. Usually the primary caregivers of children are their mothers who experience several problems due to this prolonged care. Objectives: This research aimed to investigate the effect of education of the correct ways of carrying and positioning to mothers of children with cerebral palsy on mothers' quality of life (QOL). Patients and Methods:This randomized clinical trial was conducted on 20 mothers of children with cerebral palsy who were referred to rehabilitation centers of Ahvaz school of rehabilitation sciences. They were randomly assigned to two groups of ten. The correct ways of carrying and positioning were instructed in two sessions to experimental group and then QOL in both groups was assessed at baseline, after second session, and after four weeks. The data were analyzed by the SPSS version 16. Results: The mean differences in three domains of QOL including the physical health, psychological health, and environmental health, were significant between groups (P < 0.05). The difference in scores of social relationships domain was not significant between groups (P > 0.05). Conclusions: Since the difference between groups was significant in three domains of QOL, it can be concluded that the training could influence the QOL of mothers of children with cerebral palsy. Training the parents by experts is recommended.

“…A doença 'cárie' , em indivíduos com PC, é impactante e ocorre tanto na dentição decídua como na permanente [3][4][5]25,26 . Em relação ao risco à cárie, observa-se a polarização da doença nessa população 4,5,8,27,28 . Entretanto, pode-se inferir que, apesar de os indivíduos com PC serem mais expostos aos desafios cariogênicos, a dureza do esmalte mostrou-se semelhante ao esmalte dos dentes dos indivíduos normorreativos.…”

ResumoIntrodução: Em indivíduos com paralisia cerebral, ocorre redução do fluxo salivar, o que pode predispor à hipomineralização do esmalte e à cárie dentária. Objetivo: Comparar a microdureza do esmalte de dentes decíduos anteriores e posteriores de crianças com paralisia cerebral (PC) e crianças normorreativas (NR). Material e método: Foram utilizados 58 dentes decíduos esfoliados/extraídos, que foram distribuídos em quatro grupos: (A) anteriores de PC (n=14); (B) anteriores de NR (n=16); (C) posteriores de PC (n=14), e (D) posteriores de NR (n=14). Os dentes foram seccionados, incluídos em resina acrílica, lixados e polidos. A análise da microdureza longitudinal foi realizada em microdurômetro com endentador do tipo Knoop, com carga estática de 25 g/f e tempo de 5 segundos. Foram realizadas três fileiras de 12 endentações, distanciadas entre si em 100 mm, com profundidade entre 10 e 180 mm. Foram obtidas as médias de cada profundidade para cada dente e, posteriormente, as médias de cada profundidade para cada grupo avaliado. O teste estatístico empregado foi o de Mann-Whitney (α=5%). Resultado: As médias de microdureza foram 253,5 ± 55,3 (A), 247,6 ± 45,7 (B), 284,4 ± 68,7 (C) e 252,2 ± 53,8 (D). Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante entre os grupos A e B e os grupos C e D, para cada profundidade e para a média global (p>0,05). Conclusão: Pôde-se concluir que a microdureza de esmalte de dentes decíduos anteriores e posteriores de crianças com PC foi semelhante à microdureza de esmalte de dentes decíduos de crianças normorreativas.Descritores: Esmalte dentário; dente decíduo; testes de dureza; paralisia cerebral. AbstractIntroduction: Cerebral palsy subjects present reduced salivary flow, which may predispose to enamel hypomineralization and dental caries. Aim: To compare the enamel microhardness of anterior and posterior primary teeth of normorreactive children (NR) and children with cerebral palsy (CP). Material and method: The sample was consisted of 58 exfoliated/extracted primary teeth distributed into 4 groups: (A) anterior teeth of CP (n= 14), (B) anterior teeth of NR (n=16),(C) posterior teeth of CP (n=14) and (D) posterior teeth of NR (n=14). The teeth were hemisectioned, embedded in acrylic resin, grounded and polished. The longitudinal microhardness analysis was carried out in a microdurometer with a Knoop indenter with a 25-gram load for 5 seconds. Three rows of 12 indentations were made from the outer surface from 10 to 180 mm. The rows were spaced 100 mm from each other. The values of the three measurements at each distance were averaged for each tooth and, afterwards, for each group. The non-parametric statistical test used was the Mann-Whitney U (α=5%). Result: The microhardness means data were 253.5 ± 55.3 (A), 247.6 ± 45.7 (B), 284.4 ± 68.7 (C) and 252.2 ± 53.8 (D).There was no significant difference between the groups A and B, as well as groups C and D for each distance and global average (p>0.05). Conclusion: It can be concluded that the enamel microhardness of anterior and pos...

Dental caries in cerebral palsied individuals and their caregivers' quality of life

Abstract: The results suggest that caregivers of CP individuals exhibited worse quality of life than those of the non-disabled. A negative correlation exists between caries experience of CP individuals and their caregivers' quality of life.
