Dental Anxiety

9 groups were formed as 6 restorative and 3 protective applications. The restorative treatment groups included procedures with- and without-local anesthesia (LA). Procedures with LA included the groups as root canal treatment, pulpotomy, two-surface restoration and one-surface restoration. Procedures without LA included the groups as two-surface restoration and one-surface restoration. The protective application groups included the groups as fluoride application (by disposable arch tray or by cotton roll) and fissure sealant.

Xylitol gummy bears: The children receive xylitol gummy bears 3 times/day within the supervised school environment.
Oral health education: Oral health education, toothbrush, and fluoride toothpaste
Fluoride varnish: The study dentists apply the varnish on all children twice a year during the study period. The varnish is 5% sodium fluoride and contains 2.26% by weight fluoride ion in a colophony base.
Dental sealant: The study dentists apply the sealant on the children in the second grade when the permanent first molars are fully erupted.

Overall Caries Burden at Baseline

The primary outcome measure was change in the number of decayed or filled permanent teeth (DFT). Caries was assessed in accordance to the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS). The ICDAS criteria record both the severity and activity of the lesion on occlusal surfaces, in pit and fissure sites on the buccal and lingual surfaces, and on other smooth surfaces.
For the purposes of this study, an ICDAS severity score of 3 to 6 and the presence of fillings constituted the "D" and "F" portions of DFT, respectively.

Blood, throat swab, nasopharyngeal aspiration, and rectal swab will be obtained during acute illness and at convalescence (about 2 weeks after discharge). These specimens will be processed for viral isolation, bacterial culture and toxin detection, PCR, subtractive cloning, VIDISCA, gene chips, peptide library, cytokine/chemokine measurement, antibody detection for specific pathogens, etc. Questionnaire for contact history and clinical symptoms will be performed.

Etiology Study of Kawasaki Disease--A Prospective Household and Case Control Study

The mean age of the 226 KD cases was 2.07 years, and the male to female ratio was 1.43 (133 boys to 93 girls). Their mean fever duration was 7.5 days with a mean peak temperature of 39.7°C. In addition to the typical symptoms of fever, neck lymphadenopathy, lip fissure and/or strawberry tongue, skin rash, nonpurulent bulbar conjunctivitis, palm/sole erythema, and induration followed by periungual desquamation, these KD cases also exhibited cough (69%), rhinorrhea (58%), and diarrhea (45%). Cases of KD had a significantly higher positive rate of viral isolation in comparison with the control group (7.5% vs. 2.2%, p = 0.02). Compared with the control group, cases of KD were more likely to have overall positive rates of viral PCR (50.4% vs. 16.4%, p < 0.001) and for various viruses including enterovirus (16.8% vs. 4.4%, p < 0.001), adenovirus (8.0% vs. 1.8%, p = 0.007), human rhinovirus (26.5% vs. 9.7%, p < 0.001), and coronavirus (7.1% vs. 0.9%, p = 0.003).
