“…Six studies were conducted in Brazil (Colussi et al, 2017; Agostinho et al, 2019; Miotto et al, 2019; Colaço et al, 2020; Silveira et al, 2020; Nascimento et al, 2021) and two in China (He et al, 2012; Lu et al, 2017), while one study each was carried out in India (Appukuttan et al, 2016), New Zealand (Broughton et al, 2012), Iran (Ghazanfari et al, 2017), United States (Kizhner et al, 2011), and Sweden (Oghli et al, 2017). The methods used to assess halitosis were the Etiquette Checker (Ghazanfari et al, 2017), organoleptic method (Kizhner et al, 2011; He et al, 2012; Lu et al, 2017), self‐report (Broughton et al, 2012; Appukuttan et al, 2016; Colussi et al, 2017; Oghli et al, 2017; Agostinho et al, 2019; Miotto et al, 2019; Colaço et al, 2020; Nascimento et al, 2021), or a combination of self‐report and organoleptic measures (Silveira et al, 2020). The instruments used to assess the quality of life were the HALT questionnaire (Kizhner et al, 2011; He et al, 2012; Ghazanfari et al, 2017; Agostinho et al, 2019; Silveira et al, 2020), OHIP‐14 (Broughton et al, 2012; Colussi et al, 2017; Lu et al, 2017; Miotto et al, 2019; Colaço et al, 2020; Nascimento et al, 2021), OHIP‐49 (Oghli et al, 2017), and GOHAI‐ADD (Appukuttan et al, 2016).…”

“…Additionally, 8 out of 12 studies scored “no” in (Q3) “Was the exposure measured in a valid and reliable way?” (Broughton et al, 2012; Appukuttan et al, 2016; Colussi et al, 2017; Oghli et al, 2017; Agostinho et al, 2019; Miotto et al, 2019; Colaço et al, 2020; Nascimento et al, 2021) and 7 scored “no” in (Q8) “Was appropriate statistical analysis used?” (Kizhner et al, 2011; Broughton et al, 2012; He et al, 2012; Appukuttan et al, 2016; Ghazanfari et al, 2017; Oghli et al, 2017; Silveira et al, 2020). Nine of 12 studies scored a “no” in item (Q6) “Were strategies to deal with confounding factors stated?” (Kizhner et al, 2011; Broughton et al, 2012; He et al, 2012; Appukuttan et al, 2016; Ghazanfari et al, 2017; Oghli et al, 2017; Agostinho et al, 2019; Miotto et al, 2019; Silveira et al, 2020).…”

“…Although 13 studies were included in the systematic review, only 10 fulfilled the criteria to be included in the meta-analysis, comprising a sample of 2692 individuals, out of which 1404 were without halitosis and 1288 with halitosis. Four of the studies used HALT (He et al, 2012;Ghazanfari et al, 2017;Agostinho et al, 2019;Silveira et al, 2020) (p = .43), as in studies using self-perceived halitosis the SMD was 0.43 (95% CI 0.14-0.71) while studies measuring VSC levels or using the organoleptic evaluation reached an SMD of 0.65 (95% CI 0.17-1.13). Studies with high risk of bias (SMD 0.82; 95% CI 0.41-1.23) overestimated the magnitude of the association (p = .09) compared to studies of moderate/low risk of bias (SMD 0.39; 95% CI 0.12-0.66).…”

“…Although it can be expected that halitosis significantly impacts quality of life, there seems to be a lack of high-quality evidence showing a clear association between them. While some studies show an impact of halitosis on OHRQoL (Colussi et al, 2017), others do not succeed in finding such a positive association (Agostinho et al, 2019).…”

Aim: To investigate whether halitosis is associated with impaired oral-health-related quality of life (OHRQoL).Materials and Methods: This is a systematic review of the literature. Electronic searches were performed in PubMed via Medline, Web of Science, Scopus, and EMBASE up to and including June 2021. Observational studies that assessed halitosis in association with OHRQoL were included. The pooled standardized mean difference (SMD) was estimated by meta-analysis.Results: Thirteen studies were included in the review; however, the meta-analysis included only 10 studies, all cross-sectional, comprising 2692 individuals. The overall meta-analysis showed an association between halitosis and impaired OHRQoL (SMD 0.51; 95% confidence interval 0.27-0.75). Subgroup analyses, however, indicated that this association remained only among adults. Neither the OHRQoL instrument nor the halitosis assessment method, or the cultural background, influenced the pooled estimates. Meta-regression analyses revealed that the OHRQoL instrument, the halitosis assessment method, and the sample composition did not explain the between-study heterogeneity. Methodological quality appeared to explain 20% of the overall heterogeneity, as studies with high risk of bias overestimated the magnitude of the association. Conclusion:Our findings suggest that halitosis is associated with impaired OHRQoL.

Some studies have examined the impact of intra-oral halitosis on quality of life (QOL), but the impact of enterogenous extra-oral halitosis (EOH) on QOL has not been previously studied. We conducted a retrospective analysis of data from 88 patients with enterogenous EOH who visited our online halitosis clinic. A specialized Halitosis Associated Life-quality Test (HALT) questionnaire was used to assess QOL of these patients. Spearman correlation analysis was performed to investigate the relationship between HALT score and age. We found that 21 (23.86%) patients were male and 67 (76.14%) patients were female. HALT scores in females were significantly higher than in males (57.6 ± 13.6 vs. 45.5 ± 11.9, P < 0.001). Additionally, 13 of the 20 items of the HALT questionnaire showed significant differences between the sexes. No correlation was identified between HALT score and age. Therefore, we conclude that: (1) Enterogenous EOH has a more severe impact on QOL in females compared to males. (2) More females with EOH visit the offline halitosis clinic compared to males. (3) The QOL of patients with enterogenous EOH does not decline with age.

Objective: To translate, cross-culturally adapt and test the psychometric properties of the Parental Feeding Style Questionnaire (PFSQ) to Brazilian Portuguese language. Material and Methods: Three stages were carried out: 1 st , the 27-item of PFSQ was translated, back-translated, reviewed by a Committee of Experts and pre-tested (n=60), obtaining the cross-culturally adapted version. 2 nd , the final version was self-applied by 42 mothers for internal consistency (Cronbach's Alpha). After 2-weeks, 19 mothers answered the PFSQ again for reproducibility (Intraclass Correlation Coefficient, ICC). 3 rd , 204 mothers of children aged 4-5 years answered the PFSQ for translation validation [convergent validity and exploratory factor analysis (EFA)].Results: For subscales, Cronbach's alpha ranged from 0.65 to 0.82; the overall reliability was 0.69, indicating substantial internal consistency. The ICC for overall PFSQ was 0.78 and for domains 0.56-0.89, indicating moderate to excellent reproducibility. 'Control over eating' correlated positively with 'prompting/encouragement to eat' and negatively with 'instrumental feeding'; 'prompting/encouragement to eat' correlated positively with 'emotional feeding'. By EFA, PFSQ items were loaded on four factors. 'Control over eating' and 'prompting/encouragement to eat' settled into two factors, whereas the 'emotional' and 'instrumental feeding' domains into one factor each. Conclusion: Despite the different factors found by AFE related to the original PFSQ, the reliability was satisfactory, making the Brazilian Portuguese version of the PFSQ adequate to assess parental feeding style.
