Within the scope of this case-controlled cross-sectional study, no robust association between prosthetic factors and TMD was found.

RPDs generated more periodontal damage to direct abutments, since higher gingival recession probing depth indexes, and presence of caries and fractures were observed in comparison to indirect abutments and non-abutments.

Children that come to dental offices with fear and anxiety usually tend to resist conditioning mechanisms. Aim: To evaluate children's perception of dental treatment and to identify the factors influencing this perception. Methods: For this study, we selected a random sample of 100 children of both genders aged 3 to 12, treated at the Department of Dentistry of a University (Group I) and at a Children's Hospital (Group II). A structured questionnaire about the child's perception about dental care was applied and the children were asked to draw a picture of this topic. Results: Most children expressed a positive perception in the questionnaire and in the drawings (93.8%). This positive perception was more accentuated in Group I (94%) and in children aged 3 to 5 years (100%), particularly in girls (78%). The main cause of fear was the use of needles (42.4%). Many children (24.2%) reported to prefer the noninvasive procedures. Conclusions: A positive perception of dental treatment was observed in most children. Therefore, dental pediatricians must be aware of the children's perception for establishing a better conditioning.

RESUMO: Objetivo: construir uma terminologia especializada de enfermagem para o cuidado de pessoas com Leishmaniose Visceral. Método: estudo metodológico, realizado em duas etapas: identificação dos conceitos relevantes em prontuários de pacientes com a prioridade de saúde eleita internados em hospital público e de ensino do norte de Minas Gerais, BR, entre 2017 e 2019; e mapeamento cruzado dos conceitos identificados com a CIPE®. Resultados: extraíramse 57.797 conceitos simples e compostos (com repetições), dos quais, 624 foram considerados conceitos únicos úteis no cuidado de enfermagem à pessoa com Leishmaniose Visceral. Foram identificados 281 (45%) conceitos primitivos como constantes na CIPE® 2019-2020 e 343 (55%) não constantes na classificação. Nos eixos, destacaram-se os conceitos relacionados ao Foco e Localização. Conclusões: construiu-se uma terminologia especializada da CIPE® para o cuidado de pessoas com Leishmaniose Visceral com potenciais impactos na padronização de ações e geração de indicadores sensíveis à prática de enfermagem.
