“…Some researchers observed that the average thresholds to detect sweet taste were higher for diabetic patients compared to non-diabetes showing a decreased or loss of sensitivity in diabetics [24]. This loss of sensitivity might contribute to increase in sugar consumption among diabetics.…”

Aim: To determine whether Phenylthiocarbamide (PTC) taste blindness is associated with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM) and possible relationship between intake of treatment medications and PTC taste sensitivity. Methodology: The study participants consisted of 100 type 2 DM patients on treatment (group 1) and 100 newly diagnosed type 2 DM patients not on drugs treatment (group 2). Apparently healthy individuals (100) served as controls (group 3). Informed consent was obtained from each participant at the commencement of the study. Tasters and non-tasters were determined using phenylthiocarbamide (PTC) taste strips (0.0143 mg/strip). Results: In group 1, 66% were non-tasters; in group 2, 60% were non-tasters while 37% in group 3 were non-tasters. Phenylthiocarbamide taste perception varied significantly among the 3 groups studied (p < 0.001). Non-tasters of PTC in groups 1 and 2 were not significantly different (p = 0.38). Non-tasters of PTC in groups 1 and 2 (p < 0.001; OR 3.30 and p = 0.001; OR 2.55 respectively) were significantly higher than non-tasters in the control (group 3). Conclusion: This study shows that inability to taste PTC is associated with type 2 DM. However, intake of DM treatment medications does not appear to have any significant influence on PTC taste sensitivity.

“…19 The loss of taste sensitivity of children with ASD for sweet taste is highlighted when compared to the loss of taste sensitivity related to chronic diseases or inappropriate habits. In a study with adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus, the mean threshold index value for sucrose sweetness was 2.48 g / l. 18 In another study conducted with alcoholics under treatment, a mean threshold index value of 3.78 g / L sucrose 19 was found, and results in users of antidepressant drugs with a threshold index of 3.86 g / L sucrose. 20 It may contribute, by decreasing and / or losing sensitivity to sweet taste, to increase the intake of processed carbohydrates, influencing the secretion of insulin, responsible for sugar homeostasis.…”

“…Diabetic individuals, alcoholics, and users of antidepressant medications were excluded, as impairment in taste sensitivity is evident in these groups. [18][19][20] A structured questionnaire was applied to the families of children with ASD and to families of children without diagnosis of ASD who participated in the research to characterize the group, and this questionnaire collected information such as age, gender and skin color.…”

“…Concentrations of sucrose-containing solutes were prepared with increasing concentration intensity between series, 0.5; 1.0; 2.0; 4.0; 8.0 g / l sucrose in water as described in the literature. 18,19 Solutions were served to participants in an individual room without noise and distraction at random in color-coded plastic cups at room temperature, accompanied by test response form, mouthwash and disposal container. The participant was asked which sample was different and the researcher noted in the form which color was fixed in the sample, which was flagged as different by the participant in each section.…”

Objetivo: avaliar a sensibilidade gustativa ao doce de crianças com Transtorno do Espectro Autista. Método: trata-se de estudo quantitativo, descritivo e transversal, com crianças diagnosticadas e sem diagnóstico com Transtorno e familiares. Avaliou-se o grau de autismo por meio da Childhood Autism Rating Scale para selecionar crianças com nível de autismo compatível com a realização dos testes. Executou-se o teste de índice limiar de boca toda para o gosto doce com diferentes concentrações de sacarose em todos os grupos. Realizou-se o teste de preferência sensorial no grupo de crianças com TEA. Executaram-se as análises no Statistical Package for the Social Sciences. Resultados: observou-se que as crianças sem Transtorno apresentam limiar gustativo médio para o gosto doce de 0,96 g/L de sacarose, limiar inferior ao de crianças com TEA (5,42 g/L de sacarose); as mães e irmãos das crianças com Transtorno apresentaram limiar gustativo médio de 1,23 g/L e 1,35g/L de sacarose, respectivamente. Averiguou-se, no teste de preferência sensorial, que crianças com Transtorno preferem amostras com gostos mais doces. Conclusão: percebeu-se que crianças com Transtorno possuem alteração na sensibilidade gustativa para o doce, necessitando de maiores quantidades de sacarose para identificar este gosto.

Method: this is a quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional study with children diagnosed and undiagnosed with the disorder and their families. The degree of autism was assessed using the Childhood Autism Rating Scale to select children with level of autism compatible with the tests. The whole mouth threshold index test for sweet taste with different sucrose concentrations was performed in all groups. The sensory preference test was performed in the group of children with ASD. Analyzes were performed on the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences. Results: it was observed that children without Disorder presented an average sweet taste threshold of 0.96 g / L sucrose, lower threshold than children with ASD (5.42 g / L sucrose); mothers and siblings of children with the disorder had a mean taste threshold of 1.23 g / l and 1.35 g / l of sucrose, respectively. In the sensory preference test, children with disorder prefer samples with sweeter tastes. Conclusion: it was noticed that children with Disorder have alterations in taste sensitivity for sweets, requiring higher amounts of sucrose to identify this taste.

RESUMO Objetivo Investigar associação de olfato e paladar com a idade e o sexo, em crianças com e sem rinite alérgica. Métodos Estudo observacional, comparativo, analítico e transversal. Amostra composta por 127 crianças, sendo 85 sem rinite alérgica e 42 com rinite alérgica, entre 7 e 12 anos de idade, atendidas no Hospital das Clínicas da Universidade Federal de Pernambuco. Foi realizada revisão de prontuário, entrevista com os responsáveis, limpeza nasal, avaliação do olfato por meio de teste embasado na literatura - desenvolvido para esta pesquisa -, higienização bucal e avaliação do paladar, mediante teste das tiras gustativas. Os dados foram tabulados e analisados no programa estatístico SPSS 17.0 e considerou-se o nível de significância de 5%. Utilizou-se o Teste Qui-quadrado ou exato de Fisher, além da frequência absoluta e relativa dos dados. Resultados O estudo evidenciou semelhanças entre os níveis de discriminação olfatória e gustatória em sexos e faixas etárias diferentes, nas crianças com e sem rinite alérgica, observada ausência de associações estatisticamente significativas nestas condições. Conclusão Os resultados do estudo se contrapõem à literatura pesquisada, porém contribuem no estabelecimento de escores da quantificação olfatória e gustativa para sexos e idades diferentes, em crianças com e sem rinite alérgica.
