Correlação entre cefaléia e disfunção temporomandibular
A relação entre disfunções temporomandibulares (DTM) e os diferentes tipos de cefalĂ©ias ainda nĂŁo está bem compreendida, mas a dor de cabeça Ă© provavelmente o sintoma mais comum da DTM. O objetivo deste estudo foi correlacionar cefalĂ©ia com o Ăndice clĂnico de Fonseca de avaliação da DTM. Participaram 160 voluntários estudantes da Universidade Nove de Julho na faixa dos 18 aos 36 anos, sendo 80 mulheres e 80 homens. Foram aplicados dois questionários: o Ăndice clĂnico de Fonseca e um questionário sobre cefalĂ©ia. Os dados foram analisados estatisticamente e o nĂvel de significância fixado em pThe relationship between temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD) and different kinds of headaches is still not well understood, though headache is probably the most common symptom of TMD. The aim of this study was to correlate headache with Fonseca's TMD clinical index. A total of 160 university students aged 18 to 36 years old were selected, half women, half men. Two questionnaires were applied to them: the Fonseca clinical questionnaire and one on headache. Data were statistically analysed and significance level set at p<0.05. Results showed a higher prevalence of TMD among female individuals with headache, but a direct relationship between headache and degree of temporomandibular joint dysfunction could not be found

May measurement month 2018: an analysis of blood pressure screening results from Brazil.
Hypertension is a pathology of high prevalence in the world. In Brazil, it is the main risk factor for the major cause of death in the country, coronary heart disease. The May Measurement Month Campaign in 2018 (MMM18) included a population with representation from all Brazilian states and reflects some of the characteristics of hypertension in Brazil. Questionnaire data were collected and three measures of blood pressure (BP) were performed. The sample consisted of 12 413 individuals, 59.1% were white, 51.3% were women. The average age was 54. ± 16.0 years. Diabetes was present in 11.6%, previous myocardial infarction in 5.9%, and previous stroke in 2.7%. Current smokers were 9.3% and 12.4% were regular drinkers. The average body mass index was 27.3 ± 4.5 kg/m2. After multiple imputations, 67.9% were hypertensive (>140/90 mmHg). Of the individuals who were not taking antihypertensive medication, 27.9% were hypertensive and of those taking antihypertensive medication, 40.3% were uncontrolled. Systolic BP increased with age. The MMM18 campaign demonstrated a large number of unknown hypertensives and a high rate of uncontrolled hypertension in Brazil, unfortunately in keeping with 2017 findings
A cor da morte: causas de Ăłbito segundo caracterĂsticas de raça no Estado de SĂŁo Paulo, 1999 a 2001 The color of death: causes of death according to race in the State of Sao Paulo, 1999 to 2001
OBJETIVO: Sob a premissa de que há diferenças sociais segundo a etnia e que essas diferenças se constituem vulnerabilidade para doença, realizou-se estudo para averiguar se a raça/cor condiciona padrões caracterĂsticos de Ăłbito. MÉTODOS: Pelos registros de Ăłbitos do Estado de SĂŁo Paulo dos anos de 1999 a 2001, analisou-se a mortalidade proporcional por causa básica, segundo os capĂtulos da CID-10, entre as categorias de raça ou cor: branca, preta, parda e outras. A tabela de contingĂŞncia permitiu, alĂ©m do teste de chi2, a análise de resĂduo, que aponta o excesso de Ăłbitos estatisticamente significante, em cada categoria de causa básica e cor. Usou-se a análise de correspondĂŞncia para a representação gráfica das relações multidimensionais das distâncias chi2 entre as categorias das variáveis estudadas. RESULTADOS: Foram analisados 647.321 registros válidos, sendo 77,7% de brancos, 5,4% de pretos, 14,3% de pardos e 2,6% de outros. Foi encontrada associação significante entre causas de Ăłbito e raça/cor. Observou-se no mapa multidimensional apresentado que pretos e pardos aparecem distantes, ainda que apresentem um perfil de Ăłbito semelhante, ao contrário de brancos e outros que poderiam ser agrupados numa Ăşnica categoria. Ă€ parte as causas mal definidas que caracterizam apenas os Ăłbitos de pretos, as outras causas de Ăłbito desse grupo sĂŁo comuns a pretos e pardos, variando, no entanto, em ordem de relação e intensidade. CONCLUSĂ•ES: Foi encontrado na análise da mortalidade segundo a raça/cor, que a morte tem cor. Há uma morte branca que tem como causa as doenças, as quais, embora de diferentes tipos, nĂŁo sĂŁo mais que doenças. Há uma morte negra que nĂŁo tem causa em doenças: sĂŁo as causas externas, complicações da gravidez e parto, os transtornos mentais e as causas mal definidas.<br>OBJECTIVE: Assuming that ethnicity might be a basis for social differentiation and that such differences might represent vulnerability to sickness, this study attempts to verify whether race or ethnic origin have an effect on mortality patterns. METHODS: The Sao Paulo State death register was examined from 1999 to 2001 in a contingence table of causes according to the 10th ICD and race or skin-color categories (White, Black, Mulatto and others). Chi-square test was used to check the association between skin-color and cause of death; residual analysis was used to elicit statistically significant excessive occurrences when each category of cause of death and skin color was combined; and correspondence analysis was used to examine overall relations among all categories considered. RESULTS: A total of 647,321 valid death registers were analyzed, among which 77.7% were of Whites, 5.4% of Blacks, 14.3% of Mulattoes and 2.6% of others. A significant association between skin color or race and cause of death was found. It may be observed that, although Blacks and Mulattoes present a similar death profile, on the contrary of Whites and others, which could be aggregated into a single category, the former appear in distinct positions on the multidimensional map presented. Except for mal defined causes, which characterize only the deaths of Blacks, the other causes of death within this group are common to both Blacks and Mulattoes, varying however, in intensity and as to the order in which they appear death. CONCLUSIONS: Analysis of mortality according to race or color revealed that death has a color. There is a White death, which has, among its causes, sicknesses, which, although variable, are nothing more than sicknesses. There's a Black death, which is not caused by sicknesses but by external causes, complications in labor and delivery, mental disorders and ill- defined causes
