    Objective: One of the most important environmental factors affecting oral-dental health is nutrition. This study aimed to investigate the relation of Body Mass Index (BMI) and dietary habits to the oral-dental health of children, and the presence of Porphyromonas gingivalis and Bifidobacterium species in saliva. Methods: One-hundred-thirty children between the ages of 9-14 were included in the study. Decayed, Missing, and Filled Teeth/Surfaces (DMFT, DMFS) of permanent, and decayed and filled teeth/surfaces (dft, dfs) of primary teeth were recorded, and plaque (PI) and gingival (GI) indexes were also assessed. Anthropometric measurements and food records were taken, and saliva samples were analyzed microbiologically. Results: A negative correlation between BMI and dft, dfs scores, and a positive correlation between BMI and oral-dental health parameters was found (p<0.05). A positive correlation was also found between the visiting frequency of children to dentists and GI. Mutual interactions between PI and GI, DMFT and DMFS, a strong interaction between dft and dfs indexes was observed. Saliva Bifidobacterium sp. was significantly related to dft, dfs indexes. BMI, Bifidobacterium sp., DMFT, DMFS scores increased with age. None of the children had P.gingivalis in saliva, while 3.1% had Bifidobacterium sp.. A positive correlation occurred with bread consumption, whereas a negative correlation occurred in grain consumption with a comparison of the DMFS index (p<0.05). Sugar intake was positively correlated; total dietary fiber intake was negatively correlated with PI (p<0.05)

    Evaluation of Nutritional Status of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder Receiving Daytime Rehabilitation
    (2024-05-01) İSLAMOĞLU, AYŞE HÜMEYRA; SABUNCULAR, GÜLEREN; ÇELİK, ZEHRA MARGOT; AKTAÇ, ŞULE; İSLAMOĞLU A. H., SABUNCULAR G., ÇELİK Z. M., AKTAÇ Ş., GÜNEŞ F. E.
    Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the nutritional status, eating habits and behavior of children with autism spectrum disorder. Methods: This observational study included 109 individuals from Istanbul diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder aged 3-18 years; the patients were receiving daytime rehabilitation. A questionnaire including socio-demographic characteristics, nutritional behavior and eating habits of participants was applied by face-to-face interview method, anthropometric measurements (body weight and height) and food consumption records were taken, using a 24-hour dietary recall taken by the researchers. Results: Of all, 66.1% (n=72) of the participants were male. It was determined that 16.2% (n=6) of the female participants were overweight and 27.0% (n=10) were obese, while 33.3% (n=24) of the male participants were overweight and 29.2% (n=21) were obese. The rate of food selectivity was found to be 59.6%; 28.4% of the participants received additional support during mealtimes, 13.8% followed various special diets, including gluten-free and casein-free diets. Most of the participants’ energy intake (60.6%), vitamin D (100.0%) and calcium (71.6%) were below reference values. The majority of the participants’ vitamin A (92.7%) and sodium (92.7%) intakes were above the recommended values. Conclusion: The findings of the study reveal that children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder have high rates of obesity and food selectivity. The need for additional support at mealtimes, and the inadequate or excessive intake of nutrients are among other nutrition-related problems faced by this population.
