Objetivo. Describir la presencia de caries dental y funcionalidad familiar en escolares de una institución pública de Cartagena. Métodos. Estudio descriptivo transversal. La muestra de 238 niños preescolares y de primaria, se seleccionó por muestreo probabilístico estratificado con reemplazo. Las mediciones clínicas se realizaron a través del índice de caries de COP y los criterios de Severidad ICDAS II y para medir funcionalidad familiar se usó el APGAR familiar. Los datos fueron analizados a partir de proporciones (análisis univariado) y a través del c2 para dar significancia estadística a las relaciones (análisis bivariado) utilizando el programa STATA 10.0®. Resultados. Se encontró una prevalencia de caries dental de 51 % (IC 95 %; 44-57), mayor para niños entre 8 y 9 años en 32 % (p = 0, 03) y en las niñas con 54 % (p = 0,03); 59 % (IC 95 %; 52-66) viven en familias disfuncionales.  Al relacionarse la función familiar con la caries no se encontraron diferencias estadísticas significativas (p>0,05); sin embargo, al relacionar la caries con cada uno de los componentes evaluados en el Apgar familiar se encontró significancia estadística en el componente relacionado con los recursos familiares (p=0,04). Conclusiones. La carga de morbilidad oral con respecto a la presencia de caries dental en los niños es alta. La falta de recursos en las familias como espacio, tiempo y dinero estuvieron relacionadas con la presencia de la enfermedad.

Rather neglected until recently, Spanish military engineers now have been studied in detail revealing that the Habsburg and Bourbon kings, from small beginnings in the sixteenth century, sustained an exceptionally large number of military engineers in the 17th and 18th centuries – over 600 in Europe and over 100 in the New World. Trained in mathematics, surveying, architecture and cartography they built a limited number of great forts, usually to defend strategic ports like Havana, Santiago de Cuba, Portobelo, and Cartagena de Indias. However, fortification was hardly necessary in the major capitals far from coastlines so their greatest, most enduring, achievements lay in cartography, road and water engineering, town planning and architecture.

En muchos países, al ordenamiento territorial se le identifica como el uso de las tierras compatibles con el entorno ambiental y el manejo cabal de las cuencas hidrográficas, y estas complementadas con el aspecto social, económico y cultural.El presente artículo está enfocado en establecer un diálogo entre el desarrollo sostenible y la sostenibilidad medio ambiental en el distrito de Cartagena de Indias, a través de un análisis historiográfico de los avances y dificultades en la planeación territorial.

The aim of the study was to verify the hypothesis about differences in sweet taste perception in the group of preschool children with and without caries, and to determine its relationship with cariogenic microbiota and the frequency of sweets consumption in children. The study group included of 63 children aged 2–6 years: 32 with caries and 31 without caries. The study consisted of collecting questionnaire data and assessment of dental status using the decayed, missing, filled in primary teeth index (dmft) and the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS II). The evaluation of sweet taste perception was carried out using a specific method that simultaneously assessed the level of taste preferences and the sensitivity threshold for a given taste. The microbiological analysis consisted of the assessment of the quantitative and qualitative compositions of the oral microbiota of the examined children. The sweet taste perception of children with caries was characterized by a lower susceptibility to sucrose (the preferred sucrose solution concentration was >4 g/L) compared to children without caries (in the range ≤ 4 g/L, p = 0.0015, chi-square test). A similar relationship was also observed for frequent snacking between meals (p = 0.0038, chi-square test). The analysis of studied variables showed the existence of a strong positive correlation between the perception of sweet taste and the occurrence and intensity of the cariogenic process (p = 0.007 for dmft; and p = 0.012 for ICDAS II), as well as the frequency of consuming sweets (p ≤ 0.001 for frequent and repeated consumption of sweets during the day, Spearman test) in children with caries. Additionally, children with an elevated sucrose taste threshold were more than 10-times more likely to develop S. mutans presence (OR = 10.21; 95% CI 3.11–33.44). The results of this study suggest the future use of taste preferences in children as a diagnostic tool for the early detection of increased susceptibility to caries through microbial dysbiosis towards specific species of microorganisms.

Early detection of occlusal caries in children is challenging for the dentists, because of the morphology of pit and fissures. The aim of this study was to compare in vitro the diagnostic performance of low-powered magnification with light-emitting diode headlight (LPMLED) using ICDAS-II criteria and AC Impedance Spectroscopy (ACIS) device, on occlusal surfaces of primary molars. The occlusal surfaces of 18 extracted primary molars were examined blindly by two examiners. The teeth were sectioned and examined under light microscopy using Downer’s histological criteria as gold standard. Good to excellent inter- and intraexaminer reproducibility, higher sensitivity, specificity, and AUC values were achieved by LPMLED at D1 threshold. Also the relationship between histology and LPMLED was statistically significant. In conclusion visual aids have the potential to improve the performance of early caries detection and clinical diagnostics in children. Despite its potential, ACIS device should be considered as an adjunct method in detecting caries on primary teeth.
