Full textObjective: to identify dietary factors related with oral cancer in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. Methods: this study is part of a Latin American multicentre hospital based case-control. Participated 366 incident cases of oral cancer in Sao Paulo City, and 469 controls, frequency matched with cases by sex and age. The dietary data was collected by a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). The risk associated to the intake of food and food groups, defined a priori and a posteriori, through factor analysis (so-called factors) was analyzed. The first factor, labeled \"prudent\', was characterized for the intake of vegetables, fruits, cheese and poultry. The second, \"traditional\', for the intake of rice, pasta, pulses and meat, while the third, named \"snacks\" was characterized for the intake of bread, butter, salami, cheese, cakes and desserts. The last, \"monotonous\", was associated inversely with the intake of fruits, vegetables and most of the others food items. After categorization of the food items and the scores of the factors into tertiles, the Odds Ratio and 95 per cent Confidence lnterval were calculated by unconditional multiple logistic regression. Results: The intake of rice, beans and raw vegetables was associated with lower risk, whereas eggs, potatoes and milk were associated with increased risk. The traditional pattern was inversely related with the oral cancer, while the monotonous was positively associated. Conclusions: Our data suggest that the Brazilian traditional habit of eating meals composed by rice and beans, plus moderated quantities of meat, may conter protection against the oral cancer, independent of other risk factors, as alcohol and tobacco consumption.

Full textContext. In human, oral food intake is the ultimate stage of food supply chain and the beginning of food disintegration and the digestion process. During aging, the oral health changes and sometimes eating food can be a real challenge as food can be hard to masticate, humidify or swallow.Objective. The aim of the present study is to determine which oral factors (salivary, dental, tongue strength) have an impact on physiological – ability to form a food bolus – and psychological – pleasure to eat – dimensions of food oral processing in order to select culinary techniques and help elderlies maintaining an appropriate protein intake in spite of the occurrence of poor oral health.Material and method. Resting and stimulated salivary flow, oral status, the ability to form a food bolus, the pleasure induced by food consumption and the nutritional status were measured on 108 elderly people (65-92 years old, living at home, with no acute pathology at the time of the study). In parallel, culinary technics that aimed at improving meat texture were developed and evaluated throughout physical measurements and oral comfort assessment by the elderly volunteers.Results and conclusion. Multivariate analysis highlighted the fact that oral factors (salivary, dental, muscular) play different roles in food oral processing and eating behavior in elderly people. Moreover, the assessment of oral comfort on the culinary technics showed that some technics improve significantly meat tenderness and juiciness. Those results will help the development of food offer tailored to elderly people with or without oral health impairments

Full textThe aim of this study was to evaluate parameters such as colostrum consumption, serum immunoglobulin G, rectal temperature, weight gain and mortality of low birth weight neonate piglets receiving oral supply of nutritional supplements in the first hours of life. At birth, piglets with weighing 794 to 1315 g were selected and randomly distributed among four treatments according to the nutritional supplement provided: Control (n = 305), Lianol (n = 306), Biostart (n = 306) and Lianol+Biostart (n = 305). Lianol Colostro® is a protein supplement and the Biostart® is a mineral vitamin supplement. The piglets were followed from birth to weaning. At the first 24.3 ± 0.04 h after birth piglets remained with biological mother and after that they were equalized in foster dams forming litters of 12 piglets equally distributed among treatments (3 piglets of each treatment). At 24 h after birth, rectal temperature was measured, blood was collected to measure serum immunoglobulin G and piglets were weighed to estimate colostrum consumption. Mortality was recorded daily and necropsy was performed to determine the cause of death. Weight was obtained at birth, at equalizing and at 7 and 20 days after birth. There was no treatment effect (P>0.05) on weight and weight gain in all evaluated moments. Supplementation had no effect on rectal temperature, colostrum consumption and serum IgG (P>0.05). There was no difference (P>0.05) among treatments in mortality rate on days 3, 7 and 20 after birth (P>0.05) but when were stratified into weight classes, reduction in mortality rate up to 20 days (P≤0.05) was observed in Lianol, Biostart and Lianol+Biostart groups compared with the Control group, in piglets weighing 1000-1225g at birth. The causes of death were distributed: Crush (4.8%), diarrhea (1.8%), malnutrition (1.1%) and other causes (1.0%). In Lianol and Biostart groups had lower pre-weaning mortality due to crushing and undernutrition, compared with the Control group (P<0.05). In conclusion, supplementation with Lianol or Biostart had no effect on rectal temperature, colostrum consumption, serum concentration IgG and weight gain, but mortality caused by crushing and undernutrition was reduced, and piglets weighing 1000-1225g had their mortality reduced.

Full textOral cavity cancers are considered a public health problem throughout the world and represent the sixth most common cancer. The main risk factors include tobacco, alcohol, micronutrient deficiency and the human papillomavirus (HPV). The metabolism of alcohol depends on the alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), a family of enzymes with high frequency of genetic polymorphisms that give different individuals a wide range of susceptibility to metabolites. Thus, different genetic polymorphisms in ADH can interfere with the individual risk of cancer associated with alcohol consumption. The aim of this case-control study was to evaluate the frequency of SNP (SNP: single nucleotide polymorphism) in ADH1B gene in 61 patients with cancer of the oral cavity and in 66 healthy controls. The molecular study employed methods including polymerase chain reaction (PCR) associated to restriction fragment analysis (RFLP). The frequencies obtained for the genetic polymorphisms were calculated and compared in both groups, as well as the possible association between these polymorphisms and the characteristics of tumors. The results showed a higher prevalence of these tumors in the male population (74.3%), at ages above 45 years (88.5%), smokers (85.2%) and alcoholic (82.0%). Among the prognostic factors evaluated, the advanced stage (III and IV) was observed in 73.8% of cases and the involvement of regional lymph nodes in 39.3% of cases. Allele frequencies for ADH polymorphism R48H on group of cases were L = 82.8 and A = 17.2%, while in the control group were 79.4% and G = A = 20.6%. The genotypic frequencies obtained for the case group were AA = 16.0%; GA = 2.0% and GG = 81.0%, while for the control group, genotype frequencies were AA = 15.0%; GA = 12.0% and GG = 74.0%. The overall survival evaluated for the group was 49.9%. Significant differences in allele and genotype frequencies were observed between the groups or between the prognostic aspects evaluated. Epidemiological data from the oral cavity cancer have shown worrying trends, stressing the importance of promoting more studies related to this particular type of cancer.
Os cânceres de cavidade oral são considerados um problema de saúde pública em todo o mundo e representam a sexta neoplasia mais comum. Os principais fatores de risco incluem o tabaco, álcool, deficiência de micronutrientes e o Papilomavírus humano (HPV). O metabolismo do álcool depende da álcooldesidrogenase (ADH), uma família de enzimas com alta frequência de polimorfismos genéticos, que conferem aos diferentes indivíduos uma grande variação de suscetibilidade aos seus metabólitos. Assim, diferentes polimorfismos genéticos na ADH podem interferir no risco individual ao câncer associado ao etilismo. O objetivo deste estudo caso-controle foi avaliar a frequência de polimorfismo de nucleotídeo único (SNP: single nucleotide polymorphism) no gene ADH1B em 61 pacientes com câncer de cavidade oral e em 66 controles saudáveis. O estudo empregou métodos moleculares incluindo a reação em cadeia da polimerase (PCR) associada à análise de fragmentos de restrição (RFLP). As frequências obtidas para os polimorfismos genéticos foram calculadas e comparadas nos dois grupos, bem como as possíveis associações entre esses polimorfismos e as características dos tumores. Os resultados mostraram uma maior prevalência desses tumores na população masculina (85,2%), em idades acima de 45 anos (88,5%), tabagistas (85,2%) e etilistas (82,0%). Dentre os fatores prognósticos avaliados, o estádio avançado (III e IV) foi observado em 73,8% dos casos e o comprometimento de linfonodos regionais em 39,3% dos casos. As frequências alélicas para o polimorfismo ADH R48Hno grupo de casos foram G=82,8 e A=17,2%, enquanto no grupo controle foram G=79,4% e A=20,6%. As frequências genotípicas obtidas para o grupo de casos foram AA=16,0%; GA=2,0% e GG=81,0%, enquanto que para o grupo controle, as frequências genotípicas foram AA=15,0%; GA=12,0% e GG=74,0%. A sobrevida global avaliada para o grupo foi de 49,9%. Diferenças significativas nas frequências alélicas e genotípicas não foram observadas entre os grupos e nem entre os aspectos prognósticos avaliados. Dados epidemiológicos do câncer de cavidade oral têm mostrado tendências preocupantes, alertando para a importância de se promover maiores estudos relacionados a este tipo particular de câncer.

Full textAs a dental hygienist it is relevant to study caries epidemiological studies on both national and international levels. The purpose of this literature study has been to describe and compare dental caries status (DMFT) of 12 years olds in Sweden and Iraq and the factors underlying the DMFT and DMFT components and facilitating role. To achieve the objective information from scientific literature and publications, and data from WHO database on these countries were used. Results showed that the DMFT for 12 year olds in Iraq and Sweden was 1.7(2003), 1.0 (2005) respectively. DT component was high among Iraqi children (untreated caries) while the FT component was high in Denmark, (no data was available for Sweden). DMFT mean, sugar consumption, economic resources for dental care, number of dental health professionals, and fluoride applications were very different in Sweden and Iraq, yet DMFT difference was not marked and serious.

Background : The incidence and mortality of oral cancer have increased quickly in the past five years in Taiwan. For men, oral cancer not only occurs at high incidence but also occurs at an early age. Therefore, if we can detect the oral precancerous conditions early and receive the treatment in time or follow up intensively, then it would be of great help on people’s health and the development of our country''s economy. Some studies have been reported that the association between cigarette smoking, alcohol consumption, betel chewing and the risk of oral cancer and precancerous conditions. When people are exposed to harmful substances, especially aromatic amines and other carcinogenic substances, thses substances will be regulated by N-acetyltransferase (NAT) through activation or detoxication of the carcinogenic metabolic pathway. However, the individual susceptibility to disease at the same exposure is different, the difference may be due to the effect of gene polymorphisms and haplotypes. Aim : The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between oral precancerous conditions and xenobiotic metabolizing gene NAT1(rs4986990 G>A、rs15561 A >C)、NAT2 (rs1041983 C>T codon 94、rs1799930 G>A codon 197、rs1799931 G>A codon 286) polymorphisms and haplotypes,and to evaluate the gene-gene and gene-environment interactions in oral precancerous conditions. Methods : We conducted a matched case-control study and the participants in present study were adult males who were enrolled from October 2007 to May 2009. All of participants were examined by otolaryngologist, if participants were diagnosed as the oral precancerous conditions like leukoplakia, erythroplakia, verrucous hyperplasia and oral submucous fibrosis were cases in the study and the others without any oral precancerous conditions and oral cancer were selected by 4 (controls):1 (case) frequency matching with the cases in the same 5-yr age group. The main effects of genetic and environmental factors, the gene-gene and gene-environment interactions on oral precancerous conditions were estimated by logistic regression. Results : After adjusting for demographic and environmental factors, we found that the trend effect of individual carrying NAT2 risk alleles has reached the statistical significance (p = 0.0475); and the trend effect of the combination of NAT1 and NAT2 risk alleles for oral precancerous conditions was significant (p=0.0092). In the haplotype analysis, individuals carrying an rs4986990 G -rs15561 C - rs1041983 T - rs1799930 G-rs1799931 A haplotype were at a significantly increased risk of oral precancerous conditions (adjusted odds ratio (OR) =2.05, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) =1.09-3.85). Conclusions: Our results suggest that the number of environmental exposure factor or carrying NAT1 and NAT2 risk alleles may be associated with oral precancerous lesions.
