Avaliação do fluxo salivar, xerostomia e condição psicológica em mulheres com Síndrome da Ardência Bucal

2008 
Objetivos: Determinar e correlacionar o fluxo salivar total, xerostomia e sintomas de ansiedade e depressao em pacientes com Sindrome da Ardencia Bucal (SAB), comparando com um Grupo controle igualado em idade e sexo. Metodos: Foram selecionadas 25 mulheres com SAB e25 sem SAB, no Servico de Estomatologia - UFPB. Determinou-se o Fluxo Salivar em Repouso (FSR) e o Fluxo Salivar Estimulado (FSE), presenca de xerostomia e aplicou-se Inventario de Depressao de Beck (IDB) e Inventario de Ansiedade Traco-Estado (IDATE). Foi realizada analise estatistica descritiva e aplicados testes de Mann-Whitney, qui-quadrado e coeficiente de correlacao de Pearson, considerando p < 0,05. Resultados: A media de idade no Grupo SAB foi 59 ± 13 anos e no controle 56 ± 11 anos. A media do FSR no Grupo SAB foi de 0,41 ± 0,27 mL.min elevado a -1 e, nocontrole, de 0,45 ± 0,35 mL.min elevado a 1, sem diferenca estatisticamente significante (p = 0,907). A xerostomia foi referida por 64% das pacientes SAB e por 32% do Grupo controle, com diferenca estatisticamente significante (p = 0,011). Quanto a intensidade dos sintomas analisados, no Grupo SAB, 32% das pacientes apresentavam depressao e, no controle, apenas 12%, com diferenca estatisticamente significante (p = 0,001). A ansiedade elevada ou muito elevada foi observada em 40% das pacientes com SAB e em 16% do Grupo controle, havendo diferenca estatisticamente significante (p = 0,048). Conclusao: Considerando-se os resultados, pode-se concluir que: a taxa de fluxo salivar do Grupo SAB foi normal; a xerostomia foi mais prevalente no Grupo SAB e nao teve relacao com o fluxo nem com a condicao psicologica; as pacientes com SAB apresentaram maior prevalencia de sintomas de depressao e ansiedade do que as do Grupo controle. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine and correlate salivary flow rate, xerostomia and symptoms of anxiety and depression in patients with Burning Mouth Syndrome (BMS), comparing with matched control Group. Methods: It was selected 25 women with BMS and 25 without, on the Oral Medicine Service/UFPB. Unstimulated salivary flow rate(USFR), stimulated salivary flow rate (SSFR) and xerostomia presence were determined. The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) were applied. Mann-Whitney, chi-square tests and Pearson's correlation coefficient were used to analyze thedata and were considered significant with P < 0.05. Results: The mean age of BMS Group was 59.2 ± 13.5 years old and 56.6 ± 11.7 years old on the control Group. The USFR average for the BMS Group was 0.41 ± 0.27 mL.min to the -1 power and control Group was 0.45 ± 0.35 mL.min to the -1 power, no statistically significant difference was found (p = 0.907). The xerostomia was reported by 64% of the BMS patients and 32% on the control Group, with a statistically significant difference (p = 0.011). 32% ofthe patients with BMS and 12% of controls showed depression, with a statistically significant difference (p = 0.001). The high anxiety level was observed on 40% of patients with BMS and 16% on control Group, occurring a statistically significant difference (p = 0.048). Conclusions: Considering the results it is possible to conclude: the xerostomia was most prevailed on the BMS Group, and had no relationship with the salivary flow rate neither with the psychological conditions; BMS patients show more prevalence of depression symptoms and anxiety than control's Group patients.
