“…The pooled rates of TMDs and pain showed significant differences between females and males, which was in accordance with some studies (Inglehart et al, 2016;Tecco et al, 2011), while opposite to another (Hirsch, Hoffmann, & Türp, 2012). Females were found to be more vulnerable than males in this study.…”

“…Slede argued that Asian Americans had a lower prevalence of TMDs, while African Americans had a higher incidence of TMDs when compared to the white (Slade et al, ). Meanwhile, Inglehart observed a significantly higher percentage of African American children who suffered from TMDs than white children, which is consistent with previous studies (Inglehart, Patel, Widmalm, & Briskie, ). However, more evidence is required to confirm this hypothesis.…”

Objective This study intends to assess the prevalence of temporomandibular disorders and its clinical signs in Chinese students. Materials and Methods Search strategies were performed in seven electronic databases, and the reference lists from potentially relevant studies were searched manually. Only observational studies that met the eligibility criteria were selected. A validated instrument was used to evaluate the quality of the included studies. A random‐effects model was used to calculate the pooled prevalence of temporomandibular disorders and its clinical signs. Results Twenty‐three articles that met the eligibility criteria were included in this review and meta‐analysis. The prevalence of temporomandibular disorders was 29.1% (95% confidence interval [CI], 23.7–35.1; n = 12,702), and a significant difference was observed between males and females. The most prevalent sign was temporomandibular joint sounds (17.4%; 95% CI, 13.8–20.6; n = 6,615) followed by abnormal jaw movement (12.3%; 95% CI, 9.1–16.7; n = 5,496) and pain (9.9%; 95% CI, 7.4–13; n = 4,552). Conclusions The overall prevalence of temporomandibular disorders in Chinese students was approximately 29.1%, and a statistically significant difference was observed between males and females. The most prevalent sign was temporomandibular joint sounds (17.4%), followed by abnormal jaw movement (12.3%) and pain (9.9%).

“…The majority of adolescents in our study were classified as Class C (60.7%) and for this reason, showed no statistical association between the variables (p=0.507). However, in the literature there were results in agreement with our study [7] and others in disagreement [14, 22], probably because of the difference in the diagnostic criteria and age groups.…”

“…Such individuals are also less exposed to risk factors such as precarious housing, nutrient-poor foods [21]. A research demonstrated that the poverty is an important condition to exhibit myofascial pain and joint problems [19] and a recent study [22] showed a significant association between symptoms of temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJD) with poorer oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). The Brazilian Economic Classification Criteria (CCEB) was developed by the Brazilian Association of Research Companies [23] for population classification into groups according to economic class.…”

2 Objectives: To determine the prevalence of temporomandibular disorder and associated factors in an 3 adolescent sample from Recife, Brazil. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted 4 with 1342 adolescents aged 10-17 years. The Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular 5 Disorder (RDC/TMD) was used by calibrated examiners to evaluate the presence and levels of chronic 6 pain. To evaluate the socioeconomic conditions, the Brazilian Economic Classification Criteria (CCEB)7questionnaire was answered by the subjects. Data were analyzed by means of binary logistic regression in 8 SPSS. Results: The results showed that 33.2% of the subjects had TMD irrespective of age (p= 0.137) or 9 economic class (p=0.507). Statistically significant associations were found between TMD and gender (p= 10 0.020), headache/migraine in the past six months (p=0,000) and the presence of chronic pain (p=0,000). In 11 final model, logistic regression showed that chronic pain contributes to the presence of TMD. Conclusions: 12The prevalence of TMD was considered high (33.2%) and adolescents with chronic pain were more likely 13 to have TMD. Clinical Relevance: The data contribute to the understanding of TMD among adolescents 14 and to the development of preventive measures and polices to identify the dysfunction promptly. 15 16 17 19 temporomandibular joint (TMJ), masticatory muscles and associated structures occasionally occur in 20 infants, children and adolescents. Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is a collective term for a group of 21 musculoskeletal and neuromuscular conditions that include several clinical signs and symptoms, such as 22 pain, headache, TMJ sounds, TMJ locking and ear pain [1], involving the muscles of mastication, the TMJ 23 and associated structures [2]. 24 The prevalence of TMD in adolescents has been reported in recent studies showing a percentage 25 of 9.0% to 48.7%, evaluated by the Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders 3 38 with poorer oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). The Brazilian Economic Classification Criteria 39 (CCEB) was developed by the Brazilian Association of Research Companies [23] for population 40classification into groups according to economic class. This classification is based on the possession of 41 goods and not based on family income, scores vary from zero (the poorest) to 46 (the richest). 42The cumulative effect of muscle activities increases the likelihood of presenting painful TMD [24]. 43Prolonged masticatory muscle pain is likely to become a chronic condition, and continuous pain may 44 eventually produce chronic centrally mediated myalgia [25]. Through evaluation of adolescents diagnosed 45 with moderate to severe TMD, a higher level of electromyographic activity was found in the masseter and 46 temporal muscles at rest and during chewing [26]. Recent findings have suggested that prepubertal children 47 with high levels of sedentary behavior, low levels of cardiorespiratory fitness and low body fat content may 48 have increa...

Paediatric and Neonatal Pain

Acute pain among children is common, yet it may be underestimated and undertreated if the pain is not recognized. Assessing and managing pediatric pain can be complicated, and as such, measuring the prevalence of acute pain in children can be challenging. We sought to provide a consolidated review of the available data on the prevalence of commonly occurring acute pain in children in the self-care setting. An extensive literature search was performed to determine the prevalence of acute pain at multiple bodily locations in children aged between 3 months and 18 years. We considered the influence of age, sex, and sociodemographic factors on prevalence estimates. We also sought to identify some of the challenges involved in assessing and managing pediatric pain, thus shedding light on areas where there may be clinical and medical unmet needs. In general, a high prevalence of acute pain in children was detected, particularly headache, menstruation-related pain, and dental and back pain. Older age, female sex, and lower socioeconomic status were associated with increased pain prevalence. Risk factors were identified for all pain types and included psychological issues, stress, and unhealthy lifestyle habits. Owing to the heterogeneity in study populations, the prevalence estimates varied widely; there was also heterogeneity in the pain assessment tools utilized. The paucity of information regarding pain prevalence appears to be out of proportion with the burden of acute pain in children. This could indicate that clinicians may not be equipped with an optimal pain management strategy to guide their practice, especially regarding the use of developmentally appropriate pain assessment tools, without which prevalence data may not be captured. If acute pain is not accurately identified, it cannot be optimally treated.Further investigation is required to determine how the information from prevalence studies translates to the real-world setting.
