Vliv organizovaných pohybových aktivit na kouření a pití alkoholu u dětí ve věku 12 až 16 let / The influence of organized physical activity on smoking and alcohol drinking among children aged 12 to 16 years

ŠIMOTOVÁ, Jaroslava January 2015 (has links)
The thesis is focusing on the influence of organized physical activities on the smoking and alcohol drinking by the kids between 12 and 16 years of age. The basic characteristics of organized physical activities, smoking and alcohol drinking are described in the theoretical part of the thesis where emphasis is put on children and youth.The sociological, psychological and biological views are included in the basic characteristics. The research in the practical part of the thesis was done by a questionnaire. The total number of interviewee was 216. The amount of physical activities, smoking and alcohol drinking by kids between 12 and 16 years of age was charted, once the data collected was statistically evaluated and put into connection with membership in a sports club.The research clearly shows that children registered in a sports club are less likely to smoke or consume alcohol.

Avaliação do efeito do álcool em baixas concentrações na perda óssea alveolar em ratos wistar

Liberman, Diego Nique January 2009 (has links)
A relação entre o álcool e as doenças periodontais destrutivas tem sido avaliada em humanos através de estudos transversais e longitudinais na última década. As investigações apontam para resultados conflitantes sobre a influência do consumo de bebidas alcoólicas na progressão da periodontite. Em quatro estudos recentes realizados em ratos Wistar, o consumo de álcool com concentrações entre 10% e 30% esteve associado a uma maior perda óssea alveolar. Nestes estudos, os métodos de avaliação da perda óssea alveolar em estudos de modelo animal tem sido realizados de formas distintas, impedindo uma comparação direta em investigações que utilizaram diferentes concentrações de álcool. Contudo, a literatura tem correlacionado o consumo de concentrações moderadas de bebidas alcoólicas com uma melhora no sistema imunológico e uma redução em marcadores inflamatórios sistêmicos, reduzindo a ocorrência de eventos cardiovasculares e aterosclerose. O mecanismo de atuação do álcool nestes parâmetros parece ser ambíguo e dependente da dose, do padrão de consumo e de características individuais variáveis. Os resultados conflitantes sobre a relação entre consumo de bebidas alcoólicas e doença periodontal podem sugerir esse padrão bifásico do álcool. Não existem estudos em modelo animal que avaliaram o impacto da administração de concentrações menores de álcool sobre a perda óssea alveolar. A discussão acerca de metodologias adequadas para estudos em animais e interpretação dos resultados encontra-se limitada em poucos estudos. A presente tese propôs-se a avaliar o impacto do consumo de álcool numa concentração de 5% na destruição periodontal em um modelo de periodontite induzida por ligaduras em ratos Wistar. Uma comparação entre dois métodos distintos para a quantificação da perda óssea alveolar também foi realizada. Através de uma avaliação morfométrica, tanto linear quanto de área, verificou-se que os ratos que receberam etanol em uma concentração de 5% apresentaram uma menor perda óssea do que os ratos do grupo controle em dentes que não receberam ligadura (0.32±0.07 e 0.37±0.07 respectivamente;p=0.04). Apesar da menor perda óssea apresentada pelos ratos do grupo teste também nos dentes que haviam recebido ligadura, tais diferenças não foram estatisticamente significantes (0.78±0.14 e 0.84±0.18 respectivamente;p=0.14). Um valor de Correlação de Pearson de 0.98 foi encontrado estre os métodos de avalição de perda óssea alveolar lineares e de área, indicando de uma correlação quase perfeita.Sendo assim, ambos os métodos revelaram eficazes na detecção de alterações na crista óssea alveolar.Os resultados do presente estudo revelam que o consumo de álcool em concentrações moderadas (5%) pode inibir a perda óssea alveolar em ratos Wistar. / The relationship between alcohol and periodontal disease have been evaluated in humans throughout cross-sectional and longitudinal studies in the last decade. The investigations have led to conflicting results about the influence of alcohol drinking on periodontitis progression. In four studies with Wistar rats, alcohol consumption in concentrations ranging between 10% to 30% was associated with greater alveolar bone loss. In these studies,different methods of bone loss evaluation have been used in animal model studies and it turns difficult to make a direct comparison between investigations that utilized different alcohol concentrations. However, the literature has associated moderate alcohol consumption with improvement in immunological status and reduction in inflammatory markers, reducing cardiovascular events and atherosclerosis. The mechanisms by which alcohol influences these parameters seems to be ambiguous and dependent of dose, pattern of consumption and individual characteristics. The conflicting results between beverage consumption and periodontal disease may suggest the biphasic pattern of alcohol. There aren’t studies in animal models that evaluated the impact of low alcohol concentrations on alveolar bone loss. Discussion about methodological issues and results interpretation in relation to studies in animals are restricted to few studies. The aim of the present thesis was to evaluate the impact of alcohol consumption in a concentration of 5% on periodontal breakdown in a ligature periodontitis-induced model. Also, a comparison between two distinct methods for bone loss assessment was evaluated. Linear and area morphometric evaluation revealed that rats receiving ethanol 5% presented less alveolar bone loss than rats in control group in unligated teeth (0.32±0.07 and 0.37±0.07 respectively;p=0.04). Despite the fact that rats in test group presented less alveolar bone loss even in ligated teeth when compared to controls,differences were no statistically significantly (0.78±0.14 and 0.84±0.18 respectively;p=0.14).A value of 0.98 were found in Pearson’s Correlation between linear and area morphometric methods of evaluating alveolar bone loss indicating an almost perfect correlation. Both methods were reliable for detecting alterations in alveolar bone crest. The results of the present study revealed that alcohol consumption in moderate concentrations (5%) may inhibit alveolar bone loss in Wistar rats.

O efeito do consumo de álcool sobre progressão da perda de inserção periodontal : estudo de Porto Alegre

Wagner, Marcius Comparsi January 2008 (has links)
Background: Conflicting evidence of an association between alcohol consumption and periodontal disease has been suggested in the literature. The aim of the present study was to investigate the impact of alcohol consumption on periodontal attachment loss (PAL) over a period of 5-years. Methods: A multistage probability sampling strategy was used to draw a representative sample of the metropolitan area of Porto Alegre, Brazil. Five hundred sixty one individuals (238 males and 323 females) that were 19-65 years-old, had no medical history of diabetes and at least 6 teeth were included. Participants were clinically examined and interviewed in 2001 and 2006. Alcohol consumption was assessed by asking participants about the usual number of drinks consumed in a week. Standard formulas were used to calculate the amount of pure alcohol consumed per day in grams. Drinkers were categorized into occasional (<3g/day) and regular drinkers (≥3g/day). Individuals showing ≥4 teeth with proximal PAL ≥3 mm over the 5-years follow-up period were classified as having disease progression. Linear models were used to estimate the relative risk. Results: Male regular drinkers had higher risk of having PAL progression than never-drinkers. After adjusting for important co-factors regular drinkers had 1% increased risk per grams/day of pure alcohol consumption (RR: 1.01, 95%CI 1.00-1.02), which means between 5 to 7% increased risk per drink per day. Male occasional drinkers were not at higher risk of having disease progression. No association between alcohol consumption and periodontitis was observed for females. Conclusion: Alcohol consumption increased the risk of PAL progression in male regular drinkers. The impact of alcohol cessation initiatives on the periodontal health should be evaluated.
