Abstract

This 2.5-year cohort study investigated whether patient's caries activity is independently associated with caries increment among adolescents, regardless of previous caries experience, in a sample of 801 adolescents from South Brazil. Caries examination was performed at baseline (12 y) and at follow-up (14-15 y). Caries activity was significantly associated with caries increment even after adjustment for sex, socioeconomic status, type of school, and previous caries experience at both cavity and non-cavitated levels. Caries-active adolescents had approximately 2-fold higher risk of caries increment than those without caries activity (cavity level, incidence risk ratio [IRR] = 1.90, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.45-2.49, p < 0.001; non-cavitated level, IRR = 2.16, 95% CI = 1.63-2.86, p < 0.001).

无论是否有龋病经历，患者的龋病活动是否与青少年的龋病增加有关？

这项为期 2.5 年的队列研究以巴西南部的 801 名青少年为样本，调查了患者的龋齿活动是否与青少年的龋齿增量独立相关，而与以往的龋齿经历无关。在基线期（12 岁）和随访期（14-15 岁）进行了龋齿检查。即使在对性别、社会经济地位、学校类型和以前的龋齿经历（龋洞和非龋洞）进行调整后，龋齿活动仍与龋齿增量明显相关。有龋病活动的青少年比没有龋病活动的青少年患龋风险高出约 2 倍（龋洞水平，发病风险比 [IRR] = 1.90，95% 置信区间 [CI] = 1.45-2.49，p <0.001；非龋洞水平，发病风险比 [IRR] = 2.16，95% 置信区间 [CI] = 1.63-2.86，p <0.001）。

期刊介绍： ''Caries Research'' publishes epidemiological, clinical and laboratory studies in dental caries, erosion and related dental diseases. Some studies build on the considerable advances already made in caries prevention, e.g. through fluoride application. Some aim to improve understanding of the increasingly important problem of dental erosion and the associated tooth wear process. Others monitor the changing pattern of caries in different populations, explore improved methods of diagnosis or evaluate methods of prevention or treatment. The broad coverage of current research has given the journal an international reputation as an indispensable source for both basic scientists and clinicians engaged in understanding, investigating and preventing dental disease.
