Previous issue date: 2007-05-11 / The aim of this study was to investigate the risk factors related to hyposalivation among non-institutionalized independently living elderly people, living in Natal-RN, Brazil. The study was a control-case type and the data collection was accomplished by carrying a questionnaire, oral examination and a non-stimulated and stimulated sialometry. The cases were identified by values of salivary flow rate <0,1mL/min and stimulated ≤ 0,5 mL/min, and the controls were by observing the values of sialometry that were bigger than the previously defined parameters. Age and gender were used as pairing variables. The data were analyzed using X2 (α = 0,05) and odds ratio. The sample was composed of 98,1% female and 1,9% male, with mean age 68. There was not association between hyposalivation and the following studied variables: income, schooling, profession, dwelling conditions, domiciliary density, illness, number of teeth and use of prothesis. However, a link was found between hyposalivation and smoking frequency in the passet (OR=5,14), indicating that, referring to elderly people, the tabagism frequency habit was a risk factor to the studied condition. Therefore, refering to non-institutionalized independently elderly people, economic-social-demographic conditions, general and bucal health, diet and habits such as alcoholism have been not risk factors to hyposalivation. However, people that have been smoking have more risk to have the studied conditions / O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar os fatores de risco relacionados ? hipossaliva??o em idosos funcionalmente independentes e n?o institucionalizados da cidade do Natal-RN, Brasil. Participaram do estudo 106 idosos de ambos os sexos, com 60 anos e mais, selecionados de grupos de idosos da cidade do Natal-RN, Brasil. O estudo foi do tipo caso-controle, e a coleta de dados foi realizada atrav?s de um question?rio, exame f?sico e sialometria n?o estimulada e estimulada. Os casos foram identificados pelos valores de taxas de fluxo salivar n?o estimulado < 0,1mL/min e estimulado ≤ 0,5mL/min, e os controles a partir dos valores de sialometrias superiores aos par?metros estabelecidos para os casos. Idade e sexo foram utilizados como vari?veis de emparelhamento. Os dados foram analisados utilizando-se o X2 (α = 0,05) e a raz?o de chances (OR). A amostra foi composta de 98,1% do sexo feminino e 1,9% do sexo masculino, com m?dia de idade de 68 anos. N?o houve associa??o da hipossaliva??o com as seguintes vari?veis estudadas: renda, escolaridade, profiss?o, estado civil, moradia, densidade domiciliar, doen?as, medica??o, restri??o alimentar, etilismo, n?mero de dentes e uso de pr?tese. No entanto, foi encontrada associa??o entre hipossaliva??o e freq??ncia de fumo no passado (OR= 5,14), indicando que, em idosos, a freq??ncia do h?bito do tabagismo foi um fator de risco para a condi??o estudada. Portanto, em idosos funcionalmente independentes, as condi??es s?cio-econ?mico-demogr?ficas, sa?de geral e bucal, dieta e h?bitos como etilismo n?o foram fatores de risco para a hipossaliva??o. No entanto, pessoas que fumaram mais t?m um maior risco de apresentar a condi??o estudada
