Subjective Oral Dryness following Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation: A Report from the Orastem Study. Transplant Cell Ther 2024; 30:446.e1-446.e11.

Abstract
Xerostomia, or subjective oral dryness, is a serious complaint after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Xerostomia is rated as one of the most bothersome symptoms by HCT recipients, negatively affecting quality of life. This substudy of the Orastem study, a prospective longitudinal, international, observational, multicenter study, aimed to describe the prevalence and severity of xerostomia following HCT. Furthermore, the effect of the conditioning regimen, type of transplantation, and oral mucosal changes related to chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) in the development of xerostomia were studied. All HCT recipients rated xerostomia on a scale of 0 to 10 before the conditioning regimen, several times early post-HCT, and at 3 months post-HCT, and only allogeneic HCT recipients also rated xerostomia at 6 and 12 months post-HCT. In addition, stimulated whole mouth saliva was collected several times. Linear regression models and longitudinal mixed-effects models were created to investigate the influence of risk indicators on xerostomia. A total of 99 autologous and 163 allogeneic HCT recipients were included from 6 study sites in Sweden, Canada, the Netherlands, and the United States. The prevalence of xerostomia was 40% before the conditioning regimen, 87% early post-HCT, and 64% at 3 months post-HCT. Complaints after autologous HCT were transient in nature, while the severity of xerostomia in allogeneic HCT recipients remained elevated at 12 months post-HCT. Compared to autologous HCT recipients, allogeneic HCT recipients experienced 1.0 point more xerostomia (95% confidence interval [CI], .1 to 2.0) early post-HCT and 1.7 points more (95% CI, .4 to 3.0) at 3 months post-HCT. Allogeneic HCT recipients receiving a high-intensity conditioning regimen experienced more xerostomia compared to those receiving a nonmyeloablative or reduced-intensity conditioning regimen. The difference was 2.0 points (95% CI, 1.1 to 2.9) early post-HCT, 1.8 points (95% CI, .3 to 3.3) after 3 months, and 1.7 points (95% CI, .0 to 3.3) after 12 months. Total body irradiation as part of the conditioning regimen and oral mucosal changes related to cGVHD did not significantly influence the severity of xerostomia. Conditioning regimen intensity was a significant risk indicator in the development of xerostomia, whereas total body irradiation was not. Allogeneic HCT recipients experienced more xerostomia than autologous HCT recipients, a difference that cannot be explained by a reduction in stimulated salivary flow rate or the development of oral mucosal changes related to cGVHD.

Porporatti AL, Schroder ÂGD, Lebel A, Moreau N, Misery L, Alajbeg I, Braud A, Boucher Y. Is burning mouth syndrome associated with stress? A meta-analysis. J Oral Rehabil 2023; 50:1279-1315. [PMID: 37332081 DOI: 10.1111/joor.13536] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Revised: 04/04/2023] [Accepted: 06/10/2023] [Indexed: 06/20/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Some studies have shown burning mouth syndrome (BMS) as comorbid psychosocial and psychiatric disorders, and as well, pointed at stress as a major risk factor. OBJECTIVE The aim of this meta-analysis was to answer the following question: 'Is there an association between BMS and stress, compared to healthy controls?' METHODS Two reviewers searched for the effect of stress in BMS and published on five main databases and three from the grey literature. Various questionnaires and biomarkers were analysed. Of the 2489 selected articles, 30 met the inclusion criteria. Studies englobed questionnaires, such as Perceived Stress Questionnaire, Lipp Stress Symptoms Inventory, Holmes-Rahe scale, Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS-21), Recent Experience Test; and various biomarkers, such as cortisol, opiorphin, IgA, α-amylase and interleukins. RESULTS In all studies with questionnaires, stress was significantly increased in the BMS group vs. control. Patients with BMS presented 25.73% higher cortisol levels, 28.17% higher IgA levels and 40.62% higher α-amylase levels than controls. Meta-analysis found that BMS subjects presented 3.01 nmoL/L [0.53; 5.50] higher cortisol levels, 84.35 kU/L [15.00; 153.71] higher α-amylase levels, 29.25 mg/mL [9.86; 48.64] higher IgA levels and 258.59 pg/mL [59.24; 457.94] higher IL-8 levels than control. No differences were found for opiorphin concentration in ng/mL [-0.96; 2.53]. For interleukins, no differences were founded for IL-1 β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10 and TNF-α. CONCLUSION Based on the available evidence, this meta-analysis suggests more stress factors in questionnaire-based studies, and higher levels of cortisol, α-amylase, IgA and IL-8 biomarkers in BMS subjects than controls.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term prognosis of patients with burning mouth syndrome (BMS) after the termination or discontinuation of treatment and to identify the clinical characteristics that might affect that prognosis. Of 769 patients with an oral burning sensation, 202 with primary BMS who had been treated for at least 3 months were included. Among them, 28 patients who responded to the treatment and 25 patients who did not were assigned to responder and non-responder groups, respectively. Based on telephone interviews, the responders were classified into relapse and non-relapse subgroups, and the non-responder group into persistence and remission subgroups. The majority of responders reported no oral discomfort since their last visit. Compared with the non-relapse subgroup, the relapse subgroup had significantly higher levels of xerostomia at the first visit (P = 0.026) and taste disturbance at the last visit (P = 0.015). The majority of non-responders reported persistent oral discomfort since their last visit. No significant differences were found in the characteristics of oral symptoms between the persistence and remission subgroups. In conclusion, the treatment outcomes in the majority of responders and non-responders were maintained following treatment. Xerostomia and taste disturbance were associated with relapse of oral discomfort in the responders.

Annual review of selected scientific literature: A report of the Committee on Scientific Investigation of the American Academy of Restorative Dentistry. J Prosthet Dent 2022; 128:248-330. [PMID: 36096911 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2022.07.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2022] [Revised: 07/15/2022] [Accepted: 07/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
The Scientific Investigation Committee of the American Academy of Restorative Dentistry offers this review of the 2021 dental literature in restorative dentistry to inform busy dentists regarding noteworthy scientific and clinical progress over the past year. Each member of the committee brings discipline-specific expertise to coverage of this broad topical area. Specific subject areas addressed, in order of the appearance in this report, include COVID-19 and the dental profession (new); prosthodontics; periodontics, alveolar bone, and peri-implant tissues; implant dentistry; dental materials and therapeutics; occlusion and temporomandibular disorders; sleep-related breathing disorders; oral medicine and oral and maxillofacial surgery; and dental caries and cariology. The authors focused their efforts on reporting information likely to influence daily dental treatment decisions with an emphasis on future trends in dentistry. With the tremendous volume of dentistry and related literature being published daily, this review cannot possibly be comprehensive. Rather, its purpose is to update interested readers and provide important resource material for those interested in pursuing greater details on their own. It remains our intent to assist colleagues in negotiating the extensive volume of important information being published annually. It is our hope that readers find this work useful in successfully managing the patients and dental problems they encounter.
