“…A significant association was observed in women between the ages of 20 and 40, with various comorbidities including headaches, hypermobility syndromes, fibromyalgia, anxiety/depression, and sleep disorders 26 . Sex differences in the prevalence of comorbidities and disorders among smokers, alcohol, and drug users were greater in males, and the mean age of these individuals was lower 27 .…”

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of comorbidities in patients treated at the FOP-UNICAMP undergraduate clinic. A survey based on patient records obtained between June 2021 and November 2022 was conducted. Comorbidities, such as hypertension, diabetes, and heart diseases, among others, were identified. Additionally, dental history, gender, and age were assessed. Methods: The data were analyzed using chi-square and Mann-Whitney tests. A total of 2.857 medical records were included in the study. Results: There were no significant differences (p=0.12) in the ages (median; 1st and 3rd quartiles) between females (49.6; 36.3 - 60.1 years) and males (50.4; 35 - 62.5 years). However, there was a significantly higher number of females (n=1716) compared to males (n=1141) (p<0.0001), and the majority of patients fell into the 35-65 years age group (n=1676). There was a higher proportion of females under medical treatment or with comorbidities, and these patients were older compared to others (p<0.0001). There were no significant differences (p>0.05) between genders in relation to cardiovascular diseases (M=116; F=170), hypertension (M=320; F=510), diabetes (M=153; F=225), or the combination of these diseases. Hypertension was the most prevalent condition (29.1%). The patients with these diseases were older (p<0.0001) compared to those without these conditions. Depression and/or anxiety were more common in females and older patients. Conclusions: In conclusion, there was a higher proportion of comorbidities in females, and age was higher in individuals with comorbidities.

“…Temporomandibular joints, rodent muscles, and other tissues are involved in a complex clinical problem called temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD). The temporomandibular joint disorder is a painful oral and facial disease that causes clicking joints, muscle spasms, and discomfort around the temporomandibular joint, in addition to psychological stress, occlusal interference, oral parafunction, dysfunction of the masticatory muscles and surrounding tissues, degenerative joint disorders, or a combination of these for various reasons (1)(2)(3). There are no accurate statistics on the prevalence of these disorders in Iran, and rates reported vary from 18.7 to 51.5% of the country's population (4)(5)(6).…”

Background: The Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (DC/TMD) Questionnaire is a validated instrument extensively used to diagnose TMD. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the reliability and validity of the Persian translation of the DC/TMD. Methods: A team of specialists assessed the questionnaire's final version for content and form validity after translation. A questionnaire was given to 150 students at the Kermanshah Faculty of Dentistry. The convergent validity was assessed by determining the connection between item scores and computing Cronbach's alpha coefficient. The test-retest reliability was evaluated by comparing the results obtained in two phases using the correlation and intraclass correlation coefficients of 30 students from the Faculty of Dentistry. Results: The ICC coefficient of the Persian DC/TMD questionnaire was 0.98. The questionnaire's overall Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) measure was 0.62, suggesting that the questions were acceptable. The Bartlett's test was significant (P < 0.0001). The internal consistency of each question was strong, with a Cronbach's alpha rating of 0.90 or above. The content validity index (CVI) indicated an appropriate degree of content validity, which was 0.95. Conclusions: The Persian version of the questionnaire can be utilized in clinical settings to diagnose and assess TMD among Persian speaking populations.

BackgroundTemporomandibular disorders (TMD) are the most common reason for chronic pain in the orofacial area and significantly impact the lives of those affected. The role of lifestyle factors in TMD, however, remains less explored. This cohort study aims to estimate TMD prevalence by addressing potential selection biases and to evaluate the association between TMD and lifestyle factors with a specific focus on sick leave and health related quality of life.MethodsBy linking data on TMD in the general population in Västerbotten, northern Sweden (n = 180,000) to health survey data (n = 120,000), information on sociodemographic factors and quality of life was available for 52,961 individuals (50.6% women) with a mean age of 53 years. We applied inverse probability weighting to adjust for selection bias and Poisson regression to explore associations with TMD.ResultsTMD prevalence was 9.2% during the study period, being higher in women (12.9%) than men (5.4%). Weighting for varying visiting frequencies did not affect TMD prevalence (average difference 0.4% points). Individuals with TMD, especially women, reported more sick leave and use of pain medication, with a significant association between TMD and increased sick leave (prevalence ratio 1.89, 95% CI: 1.78–2.01) among both women and men. In addition, TMD was associated with a lower health related quality of life (p < 0.001).ConclusionThe association of TMD with sick leave highlights the condition's profound impact on the lives of affected individuals. These findings underscore the influence of TMD on work life and the burden of TMD on the societal level.Significance StatementThe findings provide insight into how TMD affect individuals, by incorporating lifestyle factors, social determinants and the impact of sick leave at a population level. By incorporating these areas into the study of TMD, we can deepen our understanding of how TMD affects individuals' lives. This approach may also create opportunities to develop more comprehensive strategies to address TMD, focusing on broader implications beyond the clinical symptoms.
