“…A few studies have been published on the OHRQoL using a COHIP questionnaire in patients with craniofacial disorders or at least CL/P. The results of our study corroborate with those of Aravena et al [5], Ali et al [2], Broder and Wilson-Genderson [12], and Ward et al [76], in terms of a population of American and Chilean children with CL/P. But overall, due to differences in study methods, sample sizes, and standardization, it is difficult to combine the results of previous studies and compare them with our own.…”

Purpose To compare the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in patients with cleft lip and/or palate or Robin sequence versus a healthy control group using the Child Oral Health Impact Profile (COHIP-G19). Factors such as age, gender, and cleft type were considered. Methods Over an 8-month period, the OHRQoL was surveyed by using the COHIP-G19 questionnaire. Included were patients with a craniofacial disorder (n = 61; average age 11.24 years) and a healthy control group (n = 70, average age 12.63 years) for a total of 131 patients (average age 11.99 years) from the Department of Orthodontics University Hospital Tübingen, Germany. These were divided into two age groups (6–11 years; 12–18 years). Results Statistically, patients with a craniofacial disorder presented a significantly lower OHRQoL than the control group (p = 0.0055). In the craniofacial disorder group, older patients revealed a significantly (p = 0.005) lower OHRQoL than the younger patients. Female patients showed in nearly all groups a better OHRQoL than male patients, but this difference was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). Males with a craniofacial disorder scored significantly lower than males without (p = 0.016); females showed no differences between the groups. Visibility, location, and severity of the craniofacial malformation did not have a significant influence on the OHRQoL. Conclusion The occurrence of a craniofacial malformation impacted the OHRQoL especially in older and male affected patients, unrelated to the expression level or localization. An early instruction about oral health, rehabilitation and functional training should be considered in therapy.

“…The role of parent-reported OHRQoL as a proxy for their children is an area that has received much attention in literature [18][19][20]. Previous work in the region has seen the COHIP scale used to successfully compare OHRQoL between children in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia [20].…”

Background and Aim. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted access to dental care for children over the world. This study aimed to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on parentally reported oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait City, Kuwait. Materials and Methods. OHRQoL was measured using a a validated Arabic version of the Child Oral Health Impact Profile (COHIP). Parents of children aged between 5 and 9 years were administered questionnaire during the COVID-19 pandemic. The responses were compared across the different domains of the questionnaire between the two countries using the Mann–Whitney U test. Differences were also tested between the parents of males and females separately in each city. The correlation of the COHIP scores with the age of the child was done using the Spearman’s rho. Results. No significant differences in overall COHIP scores were found between the parents in Riyadh and Kuwait City ( p > 0.05 ). There were significant gender differences observed across domains in Kuwait ( p = 0.030 ) but not in Riyadh ( p = 0.295 ). There was also a significant negative correlation between the different COHIP domains in Kuwait but not Riyadh. Conclusion. There is a greater gender difference and age correlation of OHRQoL among the population studied in Kuwait City when compared to those in Riyadh.

Background: Plastic and reconstructive surgery services need to be improved in developing African countries. Research and article publications from those countries are limited. This review was conducted to identify published articles from Sudan in the area of plastic and reconstructive surgery. Methods: This review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis guidelines. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis guidelines were used for the preparation of this systematic review. A comprehensive systematic search was performed using PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Web of Science databases. Articles published in Sudan, specifically in the area of plastic and reconstructive surgery, and written in English were included in this review. Results: The total number of articles that fulfilled the inclusion criteria was 23. The articles were written from 1969 to 2023. Only two articles were published in the 20th century. The most common study type was a retrospective study of eight articles, and the most common study area was Khartoum Teaching Hospital. Regarding the publishing journals, the number of subscription journals was six (30%), whereas open access was 17 (70%). Conclusion: This review demonstrates the lack of articles published on plastic surgery in Sudan. Further investigation is needed to determine the challenges and problems associated with possible clarifications.
