Perfil de trabalho urbano de adolescentes de 14-15 anos: um estudo populacional no Sul do Brasil

The scope of this article was to describe the urban work patterns among 14 to 15-year-old youths from Southern Brazil. Child labor was characterized as any activity that resulted in retribution in the form of goods, services or money. The analyses were stratified by sex and economic level. Of the 4325 adolescents interviewed, the proportion of labor in the last year was 22.2%, namely 27.7% for the male sex, and 17% for the female sex. This proportion was also higher among the poorer strata of the population (30.0%) than the more affluent (14.3%). The majority of adolescents worked away from home and approximately half of them began working before 14 years of age, and around 80.0% reported that they worked by choice. Only 1.0% had a labor contract or work booklet, 30.0% worked more than six hours per day, and the average income was less than US

85/month. Domestic work predominated among the poorest teenagers. There is a need for greater surveillance of child labor and of interventions seeking to enforce prevailing legislation.

PERFIL EPIDEMIOLÓGICO DE LESÕES DE VIOLÊNCIA FÍSICA EM MULHERES: ESTUDO TRANSVERSAL

OBJECTIVE: to describe the use of public dental services and to assess deft/DMFT indexes in the city of Arroio do Padre, state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. METHODS: this was a cross-sectional study of all children aged 5 and 12 living in the city in 2013 (N=50); the children underwent oral health exams and the adults responsible for them answered questionnaires. RESULTS: mean deft and DMFT were 3.9 and 1.3. In deciduous teeth (deft) there was predominance of the decay component (82%) while in the permanent dentition (DMFT) the filled component was predominant (65%); 19 children students had decayed teeth at the time of the examination and 13 of these had had a dental visit at the Basic Health Unit. CONCLUSION: most children presented caries history, which may be attributed in part to low exposure to fluoride, low parental education and little appreciation of deciduous teeth.OBJETIVO: descrever a utilizacao do servico publico odontologico e os indices de ceo-d e CPO-D no municipio de Arroio do Padre-RS, Brasil. METODOS: estudo descritivo censitario com todos os residentes nas idades de cinco e 12 anos, em 2013; foram realizados exames bucais e aplicado questionario junto aos responsaveis. RESULTADOS: participaram do estudo 50 escolares, 22 com cinco e 28 com 12 anos de idade; as medias de ceo-d e CPOD foram de 3,9 e 1,3 respectivamente; na denticao decidua (ceo-d), houve predominio do componente cariado (82%), e na permanente (CPO-D), o predominio foi do componente obturado (65%); do total, 19 escolares apresentaram dentes cariados no momento do exame e destes, 13 haviam consultado com dentista da unidade basica de saude. CONCLUSAO: a maioria dos escolares apresentava historia de carie, possivelmente atribuida - em parte - a pouca exposicao ao fluor, baixa escolaridade dos pais e pouca valorizacao da denticao decidua.

Private dental insurance expenditure in Brazil

To describe the epidemiological profile of women who have suffered violence and to characterize their physical injuries. A transversal study was conducted based on secondary data obtained from expert reports in the 3rd Regional Coordination of Health of Pelotas, from January/2014 to December/2014. Of 1,330 reports analyzed, 1,164 were related to women living in Pelotas. In one thousand women aged 12-44 years, around 10 were victims of violence during the study period; 60.6% women aged 20-44 years, most single (74.6%) and white (85.2%). The spring/summer period was the most prevalent indicating 57% of reports. Face and head (36.4%) and upper limbs (45.8%) were more frequently hitted. The blunt instrument was present in 88.9% of the cases and 8.4% were without information. The epidemiological profile of victimized women and their proper notification allow a better approach to domestic violence, highlighting the importance of the dentist in full and humanized care. It is based on this the approach violence against women in the undergraduate courses in Dentistry.

Can implant surfaces affect implant stability during osseointegration? A randomized clinical trial

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To quantify the household expenditure per capita and to estimate the percentage of Brazilian households that have spent with dental insurance. METHODS We analyzed data from 55,970 households that participated in the research Pesquisa de Orcamentos Familiares in 2008–2009. We have analyzed the annual household expenditure per capita with dental insurance (business and private) according to the Brazilian states and the socioeconomic and demographic characteristics of the households (sex, age, race, and educational level of the head of the household, family income, and presence of an older adult in the household). RESULTS Only 2.5% of Brazilian households have reported spending on dental insurance. The amount spent per capita amounted to R

Comparação das práticas odontológicas segundo modelos de atendimento: tradicional e da Saúde da Família, Pelotas-RS, 2012-2013

This randomized clinical trial evaluated the insertion torque (IT), primary, and secondary stability of dental implants with different surface treatments during the osseointegration period. Nineteen patients with bilateral partial edentulism in the posterior mandibular region were randomly allocated to two implant brand groups and received implants with different surface treatments in the opposite site of the arch: Osseotite and Nanotite or SLA and SLActive. During implant placement, the maximum IT was recorded using a surgical motor equipped with a graphical user interface. The implant stability quotient (ISQ) was assessed immediately after the IT, and was measured weekly via resonance frequency analysis during 3 months. The data were analyzed by a one-way ANOVA, the Bonferroni test, paired t tests and Pearsons correlation coefficient. The IT values were similar (p > 0.05) for all implant types ranging from 43.82 ± 6.50 to 46.84 ± 5.06. All implant types behaved similarly until the 28th day (p > 0.05). Between 35 and 56 days, Osseotite and SLActive showed lower ISQ values (p < 0.001) compared to Nanotite and SLA implants. After 56 days, only Osseotite maintained significantly lower ISQ values than the other implants (p < 0.05). After 91 days the ISQ values were significantly higher than the baseline for all four implant types (p < 0.001). The ISQ and IT values were significantly correlated at the baseline and at the final evaluation for Osseotite, Nanotite, and SLActive implants (p < 0.001). After 91 days, ISQ and IT values were only significantly correlated for the Osseotite implants (p < 0.05). All implants types exhibited acceptable primary and secondary stability.
