INTRODUÇÃO A concomitância de periodontite crônica (PC) em pacientes com doença renal crônica (DRC) tem sido associada a desfechos adversos. A deficiência de vitamina D (25(OH)D) parece desempenhar papel importante na PC e níveis inadequados de vitamina D têm sido descritos em pacientes com DRC. OBJETIVO: Examinar a relação entre níveis séricos de vitamina D e PC em pacientes com DRC pré-dialítica. MÉTODO: Estudo de caso-controle, definidos, respectivamente, como pacientes com DRC e PC e DRC sem PC. Os dados demográficos, de exame físico e laboratoriais foram obtidos no dia da consulta. A DRC foi definida e estagiada segundo a NKF QDOKI TM. Os níveis séricos de 25(OH) D foram dosados por quimioluminescência quando da avaliação da PC, a qual foi caracterizada segundo os critérios de Academia Americana de Periodontologia (1999). Os resultados de 25(OH)D foram estratificados em deficiência (< 14 ηg/mL), insuficiência (15-29 ηg/mL) e suficiência (> 30 ηg/mL). RESULTADOS: Um total de 29 pacientes foram estudados, 15 no grupo caso e 14 no grupo controle. Os pacientes casos apresentaram mediana de 25(OH) D inferior a dos pacientes controles (22,6 vs. 28,6 ηg/mL; p < 0,01). A frequência de pacientes casos com insuficiência/deficiência de vitamina D foi maior do que entre os pacientes controles (93,3% vs. 57,1%, p < 0,004). Por outro lado, o percentual de pacientes com suficiência de vitamina D foi maior entre os controles se comparados aos integrantes do grupo casos (42,9% vs. 6,7%, p < 0,004). CONCLUSÃO: Em pacientes com DRC, a deficiência de vitamina D se associa com PC.

A presente dissertação objetivou correlacionar diferentes recursos de diagnóstico do hálito e analisar os efeitos do controle de placa supragengival sobre as medições do hálito. Para tanto, medições organolépticas (ORL), de compostos sulfurados voláteis (CSV) e de auto-percepção (EVA) foram realizadas em 27 pacientes (14 mulheres e 13 homens) portadores de periodontite crônica. O tratamento da gengivite foi realizado através de controle de placa supragengival. Análises do hálito foram realizadas ao exame inicial, 30, 90 e 180 dias após início do programa. Correlações significativas foram observadas entre ORL-CSV, ORL-EVA e EVA-CSV, sendo a última fraca. Em relação aos períodos experimentais, houve uma clara diminuição em todas as medições do hálito ao longo do tempo. Em análise post-hoc, subdividiu-se a amostra em dois grupos (relacionados ao hábito de limpar ou não a língua). Não foram observadas diferenças entre esses grupos. Pôde-se concluir que embora existam correlações significativas entre os recursos de diagnóstico do hálito, a medição organoléptica (padrão-ouro) deve ser sempre realizada. Além disso, um programa de controle de placa supragengival é eficaz em reduzir medidas relacionadas ao hálito, independentemente da limpeza da língua.

This research aimed at evaluating oral health education activities for Periodontitis carriers, emphasizing the motivation for self-care and understanding the cultural aspects involved. This was a qualitative and quantitative study. Based on the qualitative referential, 20 interviews were done, in which differences between scientific and popular explicative models of the health-illness process were verified, besides the increased knowledge and motivation in relation to the use of preventive measures and also the fails in the understanding of the chronic character of periodontitis, enhancing frustration and guilty feelings in the patients. Two groups were structured: intervention and control. The intervention group was submitted to clinical attendance and education activities, while the control group undergone the traditional clinical attendance only. The sample consisted of 51 participants of intervention group and 47 of control group. Structured interviews were conducted at the beginning and at the end of the treatment in order to evaluate the knowledge and motivation for self-care in both groups. For comparison between the previous and post moments in both groups, there were applied McNemar tests with a probability of p < 0.05. In intervention group there was an increase in knowledge related to the name, the causes and related factors of the disease (p < 0.05). In control group there wasn t a rise in the understanding of the diseases chronic character, unlike in intervention group. However, in what concerns self-care, a greatest frequency in medium and high scores was observed in both groups. By this study, it is conclude that there is a common sense knowledge about the importance of preventive techniques and poor oral health as causing periodontitis; clinical interventions for bearers of chronic Periodontitis do not add values to the patients, regarding the illness, its causes and its chronic character; popular beliefs stay in their imagination, and the patients have a increased motivational capacity for self-care

INTRODUCTION: The high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) constitutes an inflammatory mediator used as predictor of cardiovascular risk that comes being researched as indicative relation factor between cardiovascular and periodontal diseases. PROPOSITION: To compare serumals levels of C-reactive protein between patients with and without generalized severe chronic periodontitis. METHODOLOGY: A seccional study was realized using a sample with 62 patients, being 31 participants carriers of periodontal diseases (Group I) and 31 without periodontal diseases (Group II), grouped to the pairs by age and sex. As inclusion criterio were selected patients with diagnosis of generalized severe chronic periodontitis, being preculeds, individuals which presented systemic disease, recent infection history, historical of CVA or stroke, smokers, pregnants and lactants. The research consisted of two stages, a clinc and other biochemist. The clinical stage is constituted of periodontal examination and the biochemist stage, of the peripheral blood collection for determination hsCRP levels and a hemogram to inquire any panel which could suggest infectious and/or inflammatory process. RESULTS: Periodontal disease group presented a average of 0,36mg/dL, while the group without disease presented 0,17 mg/dL, do not existing significant difference statistically between the averages (p = 0,061). The cardiovascular risk for the group I was classified high for 27,6% of participants and low for 72,4% of them. In the group II, 6,45% presented high risk e 93,5% low risk, being this significant relation statistically gotten for Fisher s Test (p = 0,042) presenting OR = 5,33; IC = 95% (1,02 27,4). The independets variables reseacred do not presented significant association statistically with the levels of hsCRP. CONCLUSION: The study indicated that despite of carriers patients of periodontal diseases do not present differents serumals levels of hsCRP from the other group, the periodontal disease was considered as risk factor for hsCRP plasmatic levels elevation

INTRODUÇÃO: Nos últimos anos, um número crescente de estudos sugere a participação dos herpesvírus na doença periodontal. OBJETIVO: Este trabalho investiga a relação entre a presença do herpesvírus Epstein-Barr (EBV) e a infecção periodontal em pacientes com periodontite crônica. METODOLOGIA: Foram coletadas amostras de biofilme subgengival de sítios com profundidades de sondagem de 4 a 6 mm e > 7 mm, de 28 pacientes com periodontite crônica. Como controles, foram incluídos 16 indivíduos, sistemicamente saudáveis e sem doença periodontal. Adicionalmente, parâmetros clínicos de profundidade de sondagem (PS), nível clínico de inserção (NCI) e índice de sangramento à sondagem (SS) foram registrados. RESULTADO: Os resultados demonstraram médias de 2,7 mm PS, 1,7 mm NCI e 0,3% dos sítios apresentaram SS. A investigação do EBV no biofilme subgengival dos grupos foi realizada por meio da reação em cadeia da polimerase com primer espécie-específico. Os resultados da análise viral indicaram ausência de EBV em todas as amostras subgengivais analisadas. CONCLUSÃO: A partir destes resultados, não foi encontrada relação entre a presença do herpesvírus Epstein-Barr e a periodontite crônica.

Staphylococcus are not usually studied in the oral cavity, when this happens, they are considered to belong to transitory microflora. Individuals that present periodontal disease represent possibles reservoirs of these opportunist bacteria in the oral cavity. The use of antibiotics whether for treatment of periodontal disease or due to hospital infections, may predispose the increase of the Staphylococcus spp. in the oral cavity because they easily become resistant to antibiotics, resulting in superinfection. The study was made with 88 patients, minimum age- 25 years old, presenting chronical periodontitis, with, at least, two sites having a probing pocket bigger or equal to 5mm. After anamnese and clinical periodontal examination samples were taken from the periodontal pocket using paper cones and from the oral cavity using mouth rinse. Of the total patients 37,50% presented Staphylococcus spp. in the periodontal pocket and 61,36% in lhe oral cavity; 27,27% presented bacteria in the two sites, not necessarily of the same specie. S. epidermidis was the most prevailing specie in periodontal pocket (15,9%) and oral cavity (27,27%). Positive for S. aureus in the periodontal pocket were 4,5% and for the oral cavity 25%, and 3,4% were positive for the two sites. There was not found significative statistical difference referring to the presence of the microorganisms as to age, smoking habit and increase of the probing depth. The majority of the isolated Staphylococcus samples showed resistance to the tested antibiotics, indicating that the drugs as an adjunct to periodontal therapy, must be seen with caution

The presence of Candida and the production of histolytic enzyms by the isolated samples were observed in the saliva and gingival fluid in adult chronic periodontitis patients and health ones. It was also verified the quantity of antibodies against Candida (IgG, IgA, IgM and IgE) in the saliva and sera of the same patients through ELISA technique. Yeasts of the genus Candida mainly C. albicans were isolated from saliva in higher number from adult chronic periodontitis patients in relation to the controle with statistically significant difference. The meon of the quantity of isolated Candida (UFC/ml) were higher for periodontítis patients, although this difference was not statistically significative. Samples of Candida isolated from both groups produced hystolytic enzymes (hyaluronidase, condroitin sulfatase, proteinase, phospholipase) that are considered patogenicity factors in periodontol diseases. Only one sample of each group (C albicans) didn't produce the four analysed enzymes. The antibodies levels against Candida (IgG, IgM and IgA in saliva, IgG and IgA in sera and IgG and IgM in gingival Fluid), were statistically higher in adult chronic periodontitis patients in relation to periodontically health individuals, suggesting humoral immune response by periodontitis patients to the yeasts of the genus Candida

The objective of this study was to evaluate the microbial susceptibility to metronidazole from microorganisms isolated from patients with chronic or aggressive periodontitis. The samples were obtained from 50 patients with periodontitis and microorganisms were isolated onto selective and nonselective culture media, identified by biochemical methods and tested for susceptibility to metronidazole. The results evidenced the susceptibility to metronidazole among gram-negative anaerobes and some intermediate susceptibility and resistance among Grampositive anaerobes and facultatives.
