“…This fast, easy-to-administer test has been validated for use on Brazilian populations [37] and is considered adequate for adolescents [11, 38, 39]. The short version (AUDIT C) has three items addressing the frequency and quantity of alcohol intake [40] and has also been validated for use in Brazil [41].…”

ObjectivesTraumatic dental injury is defined as trauma caused by forces on a tooth with variable extent and severity. The aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of traumatic dental injury and its association with overjet, lip protection, sex, socioeconomic status, social capital and binge drinking among 12-year-old students.Research Design and MethodA cross-sectional study was conducted with a sample of 633 12-year-old students. Data were collected through a clinical exam and self-administered questionnaires. Socioeconomic status was determined based on mother’s schooling and household income. The Social Capital Questionnaire for Adolescent Students and Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT-C) were used to measure social capital and binge drinking, respectively.ResultsThe prevalence of traumatic dental injury was 29.9% (176/588). Traumatic dental injury was more prevalent among male adolescents (p = 0.010), those with overjet greater than 5 mm (p < 0.001) and those with inadequate lip protection (p < 0.001). In the multiple logistic regression analysis, overjet [OR = 3.80 (95% CI: 2.235–6.466), p < 0.0001], inadequate lip protection [OR = 5.585 (95% CI: 3.654–8.535), p < 0.0001] and binge drinking [OR = 1.93 (95% CI: 1.21–3.06), p = 0.005] remained significantly associated with traumatic dental injury.ConclusionsThe present findings suggest that a high level of total social capital and trust are not associated with TDI in adolescents, unlike binge drinking. The effects of social and behavioral factors on TDI are not well elucidated. Therefore, further research involving other populations and a longitudinal design is recommended.

“…The index categorizes residential areas into 5 classes (class I to class V), with class I indicating the highest degree of social vulnerability (the worst housing conditions, schooling, income, jobs, legal assistance and health) and class V indicating the lowest degree of social vulnerability (most advantageous conditions) [31,35-41]. The SVI has been standardized for use in characterizing area-level socioeconomic status in Brazil in several studies.…”

BackgroundHazardous drinking among adolescents is a major public health concern. The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of binge drinking/alcohol consumption and its association with different types of friendship networks, gender and socioeconomic status among students in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil.MethodsWe conducted a cross-sectional study on a representative random sample of 891 adolescents (41% male, aged 15–19 years) from public and private schools in 2009–2010. Information on friendship networks and binge drinking was collected using two validated self-administered questionnaires: the Integrated Questionnaire for the Measurement of Social Capital and the first 3 items in the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT C). We used the area-based Social Vulnerability Index (SVI), mother and father’s educational background, and the type of school to assess socioeconomic status. The chi-squared test was used to examine the associations between sample characteristics or the type of friends and binge drinking (p-values <0.05 were considered statistically significant). Ordinal logistic regression was used to estimate the association between binge drinking and the independent variables.ResultsA total of 321 (36%) adolescents reported binge drinking (5 or more drinks in one occasion), and among them, 233 (26.2%) adolescents reported binge drinking less than monthly to monthly, and 88 (9.9%) weekly to daily. Binge drinking was associated with being male (OR = 1.52, 95% CI 1.01–2.28) and with living in a low vulnerability area (having the best housing conditions, schooling, income, jobs, legal assistance and health) (OR = 1.66, 95% CI 1.05–2.62). Students who reported that their closest friends were from school (as opposed to friends from church) had an increased risk of binge drinking (OR = 3.55, 95% CI 1.91–5.87). In analyses stratified by gender, the association was significant only among the female students.ConclusionsThe prevalence of binge drinking was high in this sample of Brazilian adolescents, and gender, low social vulnerability and friendship network were associated with binge drinking.

Resumo Traumatismo dentário e consumo de drogas ilícitas podem comprometer gravemente a saúde dos adolescentes e são considerados sérios problemas de saúde pública. Objetivo Investigar a associação do traumatismo dentário com o uso de drogas ilícitas e condição socioeconômica entre adolescentes de 12 anos de idade. Métodos Estudo transversal envolvendo 633 adolescentes de escolas públicas e privadas da cidade de Diamantina, no Estado de Minas Gerais. Os dados foram coletados por meio de exame clínico e questionários. Traumatismo dentário foi avaliado pela classificação de Andreasen, e consumo de drogas ilícitas, pelo instrumento ASSIST (Teste para Triagem do Envolvimento com Álcool, Cigarro e Outras Substâncias). As associações foram testadas pelo teste do qui-quadrado e teste Exato de Fisher (p<0,05). Resultados A presença do traumatismo dentário foi observada em 176 adolescentes (29,9%). A prevalência reportada do uso de maconha foi de 1,5% (9/588), de cocaína, 0,3% (2/588), e de inalantes, 1,7% (10/588). Traumatismo dentário foi mais prevalente entre adolescentes do sexo masculino (p=0,010) que tinham usado maconha (p=0,024) na vida. Conclusão A associação observada entre o uso de drogas ilícitas e o sexo masculino com o traumatismo dentário sugere a necessidade de adoção de políticas voltadas para o controle efetivo dessas condições, principalmente em idade precoce.
