چکیده انگلیسی

ObjectiveTo perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of the effectiveness of laser therapy (LT) in the prevention of oral mucositis (OM) in patients undergoing oncotherapy.MethodsA search was conducted in the MEDLINE, LILACS, and Cochrane databases using the keywords “laser therapy” and “oral mucositis” in order to perform this systematic review and meta-analysis. The case-control studies included were submitted to odds ratio (OR) analysis, whose cut-off for statistic calculation was OM grade ≥ 3. Calculations were performed with the BioEstat program, release 5.0, using DerSimonian-Laird's random effects statistical analysis.ResultsIn this systematic review, twelve studies were included; the meta-analysis of seven of them demonstrated that LT in patients undergoing oncotherapy is approximately 10 times more effective in the prevention of OM grade ≥ 3 than in patients without laser treatment (OR: 9.5281; 95% CI: 1.447-52.0354; p = 0.0093).ConclusionThe data demonstrated the significant prophylactic effect of OM grade ≥ 3 in patients undergoing LT. Further studies, with larger sample sizes, are needed for better evaluation of LT's prophylactic effect on OM grade ≥ 3.

ResumoObjetivoRealizar uma metanálise da eficácia da laser terapia (LT) na prevenção da mucosite oral (MO) em pacientes submetidos à oncoterapia.MétodosFoi realizada uma busca nas bases de dados MEDLINE, LILACS e Cochrane, utilizando as palavras-chave “laser therapy” e “oral mucositis”. Os estudos de caso-controle incluídos foram submetidos à análise do odds ratio (OR), cujo ponto de corte para a estatística foi MO grau ≥ 3. Os cálculos foram realizados com o programa BioEstat 5.0, utilizando a análise estatística de Efeito Aleatório de DerSimonian-Laird.ResultadosDoze estudos foram incluídos na revisão sistemática. A metanálise de sete deles evidenciou que a LT em pacientes submetidos à oncoterapia é aproximadamente 10 vezes mais eficaz na prevenção de MO grau ≥ 3 do que em pacientes sem o tratamento com laser (OR: 9,5281; intervalo de confiança de 95% 1,447-52,0354, p = 0,0093).ConclusãoEsses dados demonstraram efeito profilático significativo de MO grau ≥ 3 nos pacientes submetidos à LT. Estudos com maior tamanho amostral são necessários para melhor avaliação do efeito profilático de MO grau ≥ 3 por LT.
