Summary

Description
English: Introduction: oral cancer is a common health problem worldwide. Objective: compare the salivary pH range changes among patients diagnosed recently with oral squamous cells carcinoma after receiving oncospecific treatment and subjects apparently healthy, Guantanamo, Cuba, period time November 2019 -January 2022. Method: a descriptive, comparative, cross-sectional study was carried out in outpatients of the Maxillofacial Surgery Consultation room at the Hospital General Docente "Dr. Agostinho Neto". The study group consisted of 200 patients divided into 3 subgroups: subgroup I (50 newly diagnosed patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma, with concomitant diagnosis of dental caries and chronic adult periodontitis); subgroup II (50 patients with the aforementioned pathology after oncospecific treatment, treated for the aforementioned oral diseases) and subgroup III (100 apparently healthy control patients). The following variables were studied: age, sex, type of diet and salivary pH. Results: average age was 59.8 years, 70% were men. There was an association between the diet consumed and each subgroup (p= 0.001). The salivary pH of newly diagnosed squamous cell carcinoma patients affected by both oral diseases was acidic (6.25±0.37) compared to the other subgroups. The 98.6% of patients with acid salivary pH presented a usual diet based on carbohydrates and fats (p=0.000). Conclusions: It was shown that the salivary pH of newly diagnosed patients with squamous cell carcinoma was acidic compared to the other subgroups. Therefore, this parameter can be used as a biological marker of the disease.
Español: Introdução: o câncer bucal é um problema de saúde global. Objetivo: comparar as variações do pH salivar entre pacientes com carcinoma espinocelular recém-diagnosticado, após tratamento oncoespecífico, e indivíduos aparentemente saudáveis da província de Guantánamo, Cuba, no período de novembro de 2019 a janeiro de 2022. Método: estudo descritivo, comparativo, cruzado seccional, em pacientes ambulatoriais da consulta de Cirurgia Bucomaxilofacial do Hospital General Docente “Dr. Agostinho Neto”. O grupo de estudo foi composto por 200 pacientes divididos em 3 subgrupos: subgrupo I (50 pacientes recém-diagnosticados com carcinoma espinocelular oral, com diagnóstico concomitante de cárie dentária e periodontite crônica do adulto); subgrupo II (50 pacientes com a patologia supracitada após tratamento oncoespecífico, tratados para as doenças bucais supracitadas) e subgrupo III (100 pacientes controles aparentemente saudáveis). As variáveis estudadas foram: idade, sexo, tipo de dieta e pH salivar. Resultados: a média de idade foi de 59,8 anos, 70% eram homens. A dieta consumida e cada subgrupo foram associados (p=0,001). O pH salivar de pacientes recém-diagnosticados com carcinoma espinocelular afetados por ambas as doenças bucais foi ácido (6,25±0,37) em comparação com os outros subgrupos. 98,6% dos pacientes com pH salivar ácido apresentaram dieta habitual baseada em carboidratos e gorduras (p=0,000). Conclusões: evidenciou-se que o pH salivar dos pacientes com carcinoma espinocelular recém-diagnosticado foi ácido em relação aos demais subgrupos. Portanto, esse parâmetro pode ser utilizado como marcador biológico da doença.
