Medición de la cantidad de saliva en personas con enfermedad de parkinson y su impacto en la calidad de vidaAraneda Naveas, Ivonne, Cortés Ortega, Patricia, González Cádiz, Karina, Martínez Quintana, Valeria January 2011 (has links)
La Enfermedad de Parkinson (EP) es una enfermedad neurodegenerativa que provoca incapacidad progresiva en las personas. En Chile afecta entre 30 y 35 mil personas adultas. En la literatura se precisa que esta enfermedad se asocia a síntomas motores y no motores, destacándose entre estos las alteraciones en la deglución, como la sialorrea. Por esta razón, el propósito del presente estudio es caracterizar la cantidad de saliva en sujetos con EP y el impacto que ésta tiene en su calidad de vida (CV).
Para este fin, se pesó la cantidad de saliva obtenida en 5 minutos y se utilizaron los test SCS-PD, ESP y SWAL-QOL, para determinar el impacto en la CV. La aplicación de estas pruebas y procedimientos permitió realizar una comparación entre el comportamiento de una muestra constituida por personas con EP y un grupo comparativo compuesto por personas sin EP. Ambos grupos conformados por 15 personas menores de 85 años.
Los resultados muestran que existe una diferencia significativa entre la cantidad de saliva en sujetos con EP y sin EP, siendo mayor en los primeros. En cuanto a calidad de vida, en ambos grupos, los resultados obtenidos en las escalas SCS-PD, ESP y SWAL-QOL se concentraron en los puntajes atribuidos a ausencia de exceso de saliva, sin embargo este puntaje resultó ser, en ambos grupos, significativamente diferente. Asimismo se observa que no existe correlación entre la cantidad de saliva y su impacto en la CV. / Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease that causes progressive disability in people. In Chile, PD affects between 30.000 and 35.000 adults.
The literature indicates that this disease is associated with motor and non-motor symptoms, like alterations in swallowing, such as drooling. For this reason, the purpose of this study is to characterize the amount of saliva in subjects with PD and the impact that it has on their quality of life (QOL).
For this purpose, the amount of saliva obtained in 5 minutes was weighed and several test were used (SCS-PD, ESP and SQAL-QOL) to determinate the impact on the QOL. The application of these test and procedures, allowed to perform a comparison between the behavior of a sample of people with PD and a comparative group composed of people without PD. Both groups were made up of 15 people under 85 years old.
The results show that there is a significant difference between the amount of saliva in subjects with PD and without PD, being higher in the former group. In terms of QOL in both groups, the results of the SCS-PD, ESP and SWAL-QOL focused on the scores attributed to the absence of excess of saliva, but this score turned out significantly different in both groups. Also, it was not observed any correlation between the amount of saliva and its impact on the QOL.

Niveles de inmunoglobulina G en saliva total como marcador biológico de la enfermedad periodontalBravo Castagnola, Francis Geraldo January 2008 (has links)
El estudio evaluó la concentración de inmunoglobulina G (IgG) en saliva total en la enfermedad periodontal y su papel como marcador biológico en esta patología Se incluyeron 50 individuos sanos y 40 pacientes periodontales como grupos control y estudio respectivamente. El grupo de estudio se dividió en subgrupos de 20 individuos: gingivitis y periodontitis. El examen clínico evaluó placa dentaria, sangrado al sondaje y profundidad de sondaje. Las evaluaciones se efectuaron antes y después del tratamiento periodontal de Fase I. En ambos momentos se tomaron muestras de saliva total para determinar la concentración de IgG mediante el análisis espectrofotométrico de su absorbancia. Se encontró que a mayor progresión de la enfermedad periodontal los niveles de IgG eran más elevados encontrándose una diferencia significativa entre pacientes sanos, con gingivitis y periodontitis. Sin embargo el grado de severidad de la gingivitis no constituía un factor relevante para la variación del nivel de IgG. Entre los casos leves y severos de periodontitis se encontró una diferencia significativa en los niveles de IgG. / This study evaluated the concentration of inmunogluline G (IgG) in whole saliva in peridontal disease and its role as a biological marker in this patology. To realize the study, 50 healthy patients and 40 patients were incluyed as control and study group respectively. The study group was divided in subgroup with 20 patients: gingivitis and periodontitis. The clinical examination was realized evaluating dental plaque, probing bleeding and probing depth. The evaluation were performed before and after the phase I periodontal treatment. At each moment, we took whole saliva samples to determine the IgG concentration through espectrophotometric analysis of its absorbance. We found that the greater progression of the periodontal disease, more elevated was the IgG level IgG establishing a significant difference between the healthy patients and individuals with gingivitis and periodontitis. However, the severity of gingivitis didn’t constitute a outstanding factor for significant differences in IgG concentration between slight and severe cases. On the other hand, between slight and severe cases of patients with periodontitis, we found a significant difference at IgG levels.
