“…The consumption of energy drinks has increased considerably, mainly amongst young people who are the main consumers of these products [6,11,13] Thus, original research is required to evaluate the erosive potential of energy drinks, since acids in food and beverage products are one of the main factors related to cervical dentine hypersensitivity [14]. …”

“…Cavalcanti et al [11] assessed the erosive potential of 9 different energy drinks. Of the drinks analysed (Bad Boy Power Drink™ ; Red Bull™ ; Red Bull Sugar free™ ; Flying Horse™ ; Flying Horse light™ ; Burn™ ; Night Power™ ; Flash Power™ ; 220V Sports Drink™ ), Flying Horse™ showed the highest non-reducing sugar (sucrose – 54.3%) in comparison with the other energy drinks evaluated.…”

“…After root dentine exposition, dentine wear can be easily provoked by erosion and/or abrasion [7-10]. One important extrinsic factor in erosive tooth wear is the high consumption of energy drinks [11]. …”

“…According to Cavalcanti et al [11], energy drinks have a high erosive potential, as they have low pH and a high non-reducing sugar content. Nevertheless, this in vitro study assessed the physical-chemical characteristics of them; their influence on the tooth surface has not been evaluated.…”

BackgroundConsidering the current high consumption of energy drinks, the aim of the present study is to evaluate the influence of energy drinks in removing the smear layer and exposing dentinal tubules on root surface.MethodsDentine root surfaces were exposed using a diamond bur. Forty movements of scaling were performed in the area prepared in order to create a smear layer. One hundred and thirty specimens were obtained from 35 teeth. Specimens were randomly distributed into 12 groups (n = 10) and divided into subgroups according to the application: topical (n = 5) and friction (n = 5). Twelve energy drinks were evaluated: RedBull™, Burn™, TNT™, Flash Power™, Flying Horse™, Sports Drink™, Ionic™, Hot Power™, Army Power™, Gladiator™ and Bug™. Distilled water was used as a control group. The specimens were analysed by scanning electron microscopy.ResultsTopical application: a significant influence of energy drinks on smear layer removal was found for FlyingHorse™ and Bug™ when compared with the control group. Friction application: significant smear layer removal was found for Burn™, FlyingHorse™, Gladiator™, SportsDrinks™, when compared with the control group. Comparing the different application forms, a statistically significant difference was found for Army Power™.ConclusionConsidering the significant smear layer removal, energy drinks can be an important etiological factor for cervical dentine hypersensitivity.

“…Esto genera confusión, ya que se ha reportado además que las percepciones subjetivas de algunos síntomas de intoxicación por alcohol son menos intensas después de la ingestión combinada de alcohol más la Be; estos efectos no son detectados en medidas objetivas de coordinación motora y tiempos de reacción visual (Bigard, 2010). Además, entre algunas otras de las consecuencias negativas de las Be, se halló que tienen un potencial erosivo alto, ya que tienen un pH bajo y un alto contenido de azúcar (Cavalcanti, Costa, Florentino, dos Santos, Vieira y Cavalcanti, 2010).…”

Objetivo:Determinar los efectos de las bebidas con cafeína en la calidad de sueño en alumnos de Medicina de la Universidad Popular Autónoma del Estado de Puebla, México.Metodología:En esta investigación se utilizó un diseño descriptivo, transversal, observacional y correlacional causa-efecto, en el cual se analizaron aleatoriamente 170 estudiantes que cursaban el sexto semestre durante el período primavera 2016, en la Facultad de Medicina de una universidad privada. A todos los estudiantes se les aplicó el cuestionario del Índice de calidad de sueño de Pittsburgh, además de recolectar datos sobre la calidad de sueño, así como el uso de bebidas con cafeína, durante el último mes.Resultados:Se encontró que del total de estudiantes de Medicina estudiados, el 82,3% consume bebidas con cafeína, no obstante este consumo no sobrepasa los 100 mg/día de dicha sustancia, siendo el café la bebida con un mayor consumo(83,13%); las bebidas menos consumidas, el chocolate y Monster ( 0,086% en ambos casos). El consumo de bebidas en las mujeres fue mayor (66,65%), mientras que en los hombres fue de 33,35%.Conclusiones:Se evidenció que la mayoría de estos estudiantes de Medicina tienen problemas con la calidad de sueño y gran parte de ellos consume bebidas con cafeína. Sin embargo, en estas personas estudiadas, a pesar de encontrar una correlación positiva con un valor de 0,181, no existe una alta asociación entre la calidad del sueño y el consumo de bebidas con cafeína. Palabras Clave: calidad del sueño, cafeína, estudiantes de Medicina.

The present in vitro study was aimed at evaluating the morphological changes in the cemento‐enamel junction (CEJ) after exposure to acidic beverages using the scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The initial pH and titratable acidity (TA) was analyzed from follow groups: (I) Coca cola, (II) orange juice, (III) Cedevita, (IV) Red Bull, (V) Somersby cider, and (VI) white wine. The CEJ samples (n = 64), obtained from unerupted third molars, were allocated to one control (artificial saliva, n = 16) and six experimental groups (n = 8). The experimental samples were immersed in beverages (50 ml) for 15 min, three times daily, 10 days, and in artificial saliva between immersions. SEM analysis was performed in a blind manner, according to scoring scale. One‐way ANOVA and Tukey's post hoc tests, as well as Kruskal–Wallis and Mann–Whitney U test used for statistical analysis. The pH values of the acidic beverages ranged from 2.65 (Coca cola) to 3.73 (orange juice), and TA ranged from 1.90 ml (Coca cola) to 5.70 ml (orange juice) of NaOH to reach pH 7.0. The SEM analysis indicated statistically significant differences between the control samples and those immersed in acidic beverages. The Groups IV, I, and II, showed the highest CEJ damage grade while those of the Group VI were the lowest. All the tested acidic beverages caused morphological changes in the CEJ with a smaller or larger exposure of dentine surface, and were not always related to the pH or TA of acidic beverages.
