Abstract

Background: The etiology of recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is still unclear, but psychological stress is thought to contribute to the occurrence of RAS. One of the biomarkers for evaluating psychological stress levels is through measuring salivary cortisol levels. This scoping review aims to review and evaluate the correlation between salivary cortisol levels in individuals with psychological stress and an increased incidence of RAS.Methods: A scoping review was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines through databases on PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, ProQuest, and Google Scholar until November 2023. All included studies discussed salivary cortisol levels in RAS patients and controls.Results: Eleven of the twelve studies showed an increase in salivary cortisol levels in RAS patients compared with the control group, with eight of them having a statistically significant increase. In addition, eight studies evaluated the level of psychological stress in respondents, seven of which concluded that there was an increase in stress levels in RAS patients with five of them showing a statistically significant increase.Conclusion: In conclusion, the present study concludes that there is a correlation between increased salivary cortisol levels in individuals with psychological stress and an increased incidence of RAS.

Abstract

Menopause is the time of life when a woman’s ovaries stop producing hormones and the menstrual periods stop. Menopausal women experience a decrease in the function of estrogen and progesterone hormones as a sign of the stopped fertile period for women. Menopause causes hormonal change and systemic conditions for menopausal woman. The systemic condition from hormonal change often makes medically compromised in menopausal woman. These conditions can be related to quality of life-related dental and oral health. This study aims to describe Oral Health-Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) in menopausal patients with medically compromised at RSGM UMY. This type of research used is descriptive observational with cross-sectional design. 110 participants menopausal women with medically compromised  45 years were given were given the OHIP-14 questionnaire using interview techniques. This study used Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) questionnaire instruments with frequency data distribution analysis. 40 respondents (36.6%) have good quality of life, 66 respondents (60%) have moderate quality of life, and as many as 4 respondents (3.6%) have poor quality of life. The respondents mayority felt complaints on the physical disturbance dimension of discomfort when chewing. Based on OHIP-14 questionnaire showed that most of the respondents have moderate quality of life (60%).

Abstract

Introduction: Preeclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy complication characterized by hypertension and proteinuria after 20 weeks of gestation. Although the causes of PE are still unclear, there are factors that play an important role in increasing the incidence of PE, namely periodontitis which has an impact on the systemic spread of pathogens and inflammatory mediators, causing adverse pregnancy outcomes. This scoping review aims to evaluate, identify and provide a deeper understanding of the relationship and possible mechanisms between periodontitis and increased PE in pregnant women. A literature search following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines was conducted in PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and Google Scholar until July 2023. In the end, 14 articles were included for review. Results: All of the included studies stated that periodontitis mostly affects pregnant women with PE, and periodontitis is believed to play a role in increasing the risk of PE through the mechanism of bacteremia due to periodontal pathogens translocating from the oral cavity to the placenta and through cytokines and inflammatory mediators produced by inflamed periodontal tissue, resulting in disruption of the placenta, further increasing the risk of PE in pregnant women. Conclusions: In conclusion, there is a significant increase in the incidence of PE in pregnant women who experience periodontitis. Future research to review the mechanisms by which periodontitis increases the risk of PE and to examine whether periodontitis treatment before and during pregnancy can prevent PE may be warranted.
