Oral shedding of HSV-1 and EBV and oral manifestations in paediatric chronic kidney disease patients and renal transplant recipients

Abstract

Therefore, it can be concluded that salivary shedding of HSV-1 and EBV in paediatric patients was more often found in renal transplant recipients than in the renal failure and control children. Transplanted recipients showed more oral manifestations than renal failure and control children did.

Dental caries and developmental defects of enamel in individuals with chronic kidney disease: Systematic review and meta‐analysis

“…Table summarizes the characteristics of the studies that evaluated dental caries among individuals with CKD compared to non‐CKD individuals. Twenty studies recruited participants with CKD from specialized centers (Almeida et al, ; Al‐Nowaiser et al, ; Andrade et al, ; Bayraktar et al, ; Caliento et al, ; Cengiz et al, ; Chamani et al, ; Davidovich, Schwarz, et al, ; Ertuğrul et al, ; Jaffe et al, ; Kanjanabuch et al, ; Limeres et al, ; Martins et al, ; Pakpour et al, ; Schmalz et al, ; Sobrado Marinho et al, ; Tadakamadla et al, ; Teratani et al, ; Tiwari et al, ; Wolff et al, ). One study sought participants in a textile industry (Garcez et al, ).…”

“…Three studies showed that individuals with CKD had significantly higher DMFT/DMFS scores than non‐CKD individuals ( p < 0.05) (Pakpour et al, ; Schmalz et al, ; Tiwari et al, ). Among the articles evaluating primary teeth, five studies showed that non‐CKD individuals had higher dmft/dmfs scores than those with CKD (Al‐Nowaiser et al, ; Andrade et al, ; Caliento et al, ; Ertuğrul et al, ; Jaffe et al, ). In three, statistically significant differences were found ( p < 0.05) (Al‐Nowaiser et al, ; Ertuğrul et al, ; Jaffe et al, ).…”

“…Table summarizes the characteristics of the studies that assessed DDE among individuals with CKD compared to non‐CKD individuals. All studies recruited participants with CKD from specialized centers (Al‐Nowaiser et al, ; Caliento et al, ; Davidovich, Schwarz, et al, ; Ertuğrul et al, ; Ibarra‐Santana et al, ; Jaffe et al, ; Martins et al, ; Patil et al, ). No study stated how the sample size was determined.…”

“…The sample size ranged from 21 to 100 individuals and participants' age ranged from 2 to 78 years. Three studies recruited healthy individuals in hospitals (Al‐Nowaiser et al, ; Jaffe et al, ; Patil et al, ), one in a primary school (Ertuğrul et al, ), one in a dental school (Martins et al, ), two in a dental clinic (Caliento et al, ; Davidovich, Schwarz, et al, ), and one study recruited siblings of patients with CKD (Ibarra‐Santana et al, ). Five studies had a control group consisting of non‐CKD individuals with sex and age matched or sex and age similar to those in the group of individuals with CKD (Al‐Nowaiser et al, ; Caliento et al, ; Davidovich, Schwarz, et al, ; Martins et al, ; Patil et al, ).…”

“…One study (Ibarra‐Santana et al, ) used the Jackson–Al‐Alousi Index (Al‐Alousi, Jackson, Compton, & Jenkins, ) for the diagnosis of enamel hypoplasia. The other studies did not report the criterion used for diagnosis (Caliento et al, ; Ertuğrul et al, ; Jaffe et al, ; Patil et al, ). One study examined only primary teeth (Caliento et al, ), while another study evaluated only permanent teeth (Patil et al, ).…”
