dc.description.abstract | Abstract:
This study evaluated the existence of an association between gingivitis and low birth weight in the municipality of Feira de
Santana. A case-control design was used, with a total of 185 women: 53 mothers of live births of low weight (case group) and
132 mothers of live births with normal gestational weight (control group). The existence of an association between gingivitis
and low birth weight was evaluated by means of a multivariate logistic regression model that took into consideration other risk
factors. The two groups of mothers were comparable with regard to age, height, pregestational weight, smoking, alcohol use,
previous diseases, marital status, socioeconomic situation, frequency of tooth brushing, use of dental floss, number of meals per day
and visits to the dentist. Logistic regression analysis showed that, among the puerperal women with gingivitis, the chance of
having a child with low birth weight was 37% greater than for those without this disease, after adjusting for schooling level,
thus indicating the existence of a positive association, albeit without statistical significance. It was concluded that gingivitis
is a possible factor associated with low birth weight. | pt_BR |
