Obesity is a growing epidemic in the world. It increases the risk for severe health conditions, including diabetes, heart disease and stroke. Recent research has found that obesity is associated with an increased risk for temporomandibular disorders (TMDs). The purpose of this literature review with meta-analysis is to analyse the possible association between obesity and temporomandibular disorders.
Pubmed, Web of Science and Lilacs were systematically searched until 01/03/2000. Articles dealing with TMD and obesity were selected, and numbers that might be useful in the meta-analysis were extracted.
Fifty articles were chosen after using all three search engines. Thirty-five articles were considered during the initial screening step. Four papers were chosen for title and abstract screening based on the PECO model. A manual search of bibliographies and the Cochrane database was also carried out, but no publications that matched the inclusion criteria were located. The articles and meta-analysis did not show a clear association between obesity and temporomandibular disorders.
There is no evidence regarding the reliability of either method. Both have superimposable results.
肥胖是全球日益严重的流行疾病。它会增加罹患严重健康问题的风险，包括糖尿病、心脏病和中风。最近的研究发现，肥胖与颞下颌关节紊乱（TMD）的风险增加有关。本文献复习和荟萃分析的目的是分析肥胖与颞下颌关节紊乱之间可能存在的关联。
系统检索了 Pubmed、Web of Science 和 Lilacs，检索时间截至 2000 年 3 月 1 日。选择了涉及 TMD 和肥胖的文章，并提取了可能对荟萃分析有用的数字。
使用这三个搜索引擎后，共选择了 50 篇文章。在初始筛选步骤中考虑了 35 篇文章。根据 PECO 模型，选择了 4 篇文章进行标题和摘要筛选。还对参考文献和 Cochrane 数据库进行了手动搜索，但未找到符合纳入标准的出版物。文章和荟萃分析均未显示肥胖与颞下颌关节紊乱之间存在明确关联。
两种方法的可靠性均无证据支持。两种方法的结果均相似。
