The Impact

Background and objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of friction on design of the type of bracket, patients’ perception of pain and the impact on their oral health-related quality of life. Materials and Methods: A randomized clinical trial was carried out with 90 patients (62.2% women and 37.8% men) with three kinds of fixed multi-bracket appliances: Conventional (GC), fixed multi-bracket low friction (GS) and self-ligating (GA). The VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) was used to determine pain during the first seven days of treatment at different points in time. The patients were also given the OHIP-14 (Oral Health Impact Profile) questionnaire to analyse their oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) after the first 30 days of treatment. The ANOVA test was used for the analysis of the variables and the post hoc Bonferroni test for the comparison between groups. Results: Maximum pain was observed between one and two days after the start of treatment. The GC group showed the greatest degree of pain, with maximum values (4.5 ± 2.0) at 24 h. The self-ligation brackets show lower impact on patients’ oral health-related quality of life (0.8 ± 2.2, p < 0.01). Conclusions: Friction in the type of bracket influences pain and the Oral Health-Related Quality of Life of patients who use multi-bracket fixed orthodontics.

Abstract BackgroundPracticing physical exercise is a way of maintaining a healthy lifestyle and it has been demonstrated that it benefits and improves quality of life after labour.AimTo determine whether a workout programme using the Low-Pressure Fitness methodology has an impact on the Health-Related Quality of Life after labour.Material and MethodWe carried out a 12-weeks randomized clinical trial. It started at week 16 after labour and ended at postpartum week 28. Women followed a moderate intensity workout programme, using the Low-Pressure Fitness methodology in the treatment group, and we had a control group of sedentary women to perform a comparison. We used the SF-36v2 questionnaire at the postpartum weeks 16 and 28 to assess the Health-Related Quality of Life in women.ResultsWe found statistically significant differences (p<0.05) in general health components, vitality, emotional role, and mental health in the sample group of women under the Low-Pressure Fitness, who obtained a higher score.We found statistically significant differences in all aspects between the postpartum weeks 16 and 28.The interaction between time and group affect in general health components, vitality, emotional role and the score of mental component. In all of them the score is higher at week 28 and in the Low-Pressure Fitness group.ConclusionsPhysical exercise, following the Low-Pressure Fitness method, improves Health-Related Quality of Life after labour. We found that, when both the treatment and control groups are categorized by body-mass index, the Low-Pressure Fitness method was not determinant to improve the postpartum Health-Related Quality of Life.

The aim of this study was to investigate whether statistically significant differences exist regarding pain and the impact on oral quality of life of orthodontic treatment. A conventional brackets system was compared with low-friction brackets. A total of 90 patients (male = 35, female = 55) were chosen for this randomized clinical trial. Pain was assessed at 4, 8, and 24 hours and 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 days after the start of treatment using the McGill Pain Questionnaire. Oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) was assessed using the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) questionnaire. Oral quality of life was assessed at one month, with patients with low-friction brackets describing lower levels of pain. The patients with conventional brackets indicated a worse impact on their quality of life compared to the group with low-friction brackets. Statistically significant differences were found between the groups, with maximum pain observed between the first 24 and 48 hours, and the values of minimum pain are reached after 7 days. The pain and impact on oral quality of life was statistically worse in patients with conventional brackets compared to patients with low-friction brackets. The type of bracket system used was therefore shown to influence patients’ perceptions of pain and impact on their OHRQoL.
