An analysis of the community periodontal index of treatment needs. Studies on adults in France. V. Presentation of CPITN data in cross-tabulations.

A total of 1005 subjects were examined using the CPITN and DFT indices. CPITN data were modified in their presentation in order to be suitable for cross-tabulation. Two different methods were considered. One, described previously by Roland et al. (1984), classified subjects according to the combination of their highest CPITN score and the mean of the highest scores of every nonedentulous sextant. The other consisted of multiplying the above mentioned mean by the individual's highest CPITN score. A critical analysis of the methodology showed that the two number system developed by Roland et al. (1984) was impractical. The new method provides a linear array of values from 0 to 16. Very little overlapping of values was observed, which means that a relatively precise periodontal condition is characterised by each value. With this transformation the CPITN can be used as an index that quantifies periodontal conditions instead of treatment needs.

Analysis of the Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs--study on adults in France. IV. The significance of gingival recession.

A total of 1005 persons were examined using the CPITN criteria which were recorded for every tooth. All the teeth were also measured on both their buccal and lingual aspects to assess the amount of gingival recession. The combination of pocket depth and gingival recession was computed using a specially written program: 93.8 per cent of the teeth had 1 mm or less gingival recession; 82.5 per cent of the teeth with gingival recession did not present pockets; 26.6 per cent of all subjects had at least one tooth with gingival recession of 2 mm or more but only 9.9 per cent had at least one tooth with 2 mm or more gingival recession and a periodontal pocket.

An analysis of the Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs. Studies on adults in France. III--Partial examinations versus full-mouth examinations.

1005 persons were examined using the Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs. Presence or absence of every clinical sign was registered for each tooth. A specially written program computed CPITN values corresponding to full mouth or partial examinations. Results compare the prevalence and treatment needs obtained through either full mouth or partial examinations. Cross tabulation analysis of the number of cases detected by full mouth and partial examinations shows differences in detection rates of 23.5 per cent for deep pockets, 17.6 per cent for moderate pockets, 13.4 per cent for calculus, 3.2 per cent for bleeding and 53.0 per cent for health. When determining treatment needs using the partial examination procedure approximations of the number of subjects needing hygiene education and scaling are acceptable but the evaluation of the number of individuals needing complex therapy is greatly underestimated. The CPITN is most accurate using full mouth examinations.

[Evaluation of time needed to treat periodontal conditions classified according to the C.P.I.T.N. index].

A questionnaire was sent to 623 members of the "French Society of Periodontology" with a view to assessing the time necessary to provide instructions concerning hygiene, carry out root planing, surgery on 3.5 to 5.5 mm pockets, surgery on pockets of 6 mm or more, and to ensure maintenance. 282 responses were received from the practitioners and were computer analysed. The time required for instructions concerning hygiene was estimated to be approximately 15 mn. This information was usually repeated 4 times. It was determined that scaling and root planing require an average of 29.19 mn per sextant. The surgical interventions for 3.5 to 5.5 mm and 6 mm or more pockets are estimated to last an average of 77.03 and 107.36 mn respectively. Finally, the assessment of the time necessary for maintenance of the whole mouth was 30 to 60 mn, with an average of 45.11 mn. A quarterly check-up was recommended by 48.9% of the practitioners. The treatment of complex cases requires much more time, and maintenance is indispensable in order to avoid relapse. A plaque control programme undertaken sufficiently early might avoid long treatment stages.

Comparison of gingival index and sulcus bleeding index as indicators of periodontal status.

Although the gingival index and sulcus bleeding index have been widely used as indicators of periodontal status, there is some disagreement among investigators as to their meaning and significance. A clinical study was undertaken to monitor the occurrence of gingival bleeding, oedema, and change in colour in subjects with and without periodontal disease, and it was found that the combinations of these clinical symptoms often did not correspond exactly with an index score. It is therefore suggested that any study of periodontal disease should be based on fundamental criteria, such as bleeding or oedema, rather than on composite indices.

[Experimental stomach cancerization in the rat].

Simulated gastric cancers in rats have been realised by implantation of walker tumour with three different methods. The best results are obtained with the injection of 0,1 ml of tumour cells suspension in the antral wall. With this method, no important trauma is done to the antral wall, and percentage of tumour implantation in antral wall is high (84%).
