| description |
Pollution comes from activities that man performs at all levels. Many of the polluting substances do not have immediate action on health and cause long-term chronic diseases such as cancer. An important contribution in oral cancer research is to study the relationships between space and community health. The Geographic Information Systems constitute a computer set (software and hardware) that allows analyzing geographic and spatial data such as events, people and environmental characteristics. The objective of the study was to determine the spatial distribution of patients with oral cancer and other oral lesions, using Geographic Information Systems and establish possible association with the presence of different types of industries in the City of Córdoba. Methods:Retrospective study of clinical histories of patients of both sexes (n = 476), who attended the External Clinic of the Chair of Stomatology "A" of the Faculty of Dentistry (UNC), period 2008 - 2014. The lesions were grouped into: benign, potentially malignant oral disorders (leucoplasias and oral lichens) and oral cancer. The patients were geolocated, by spatial localization of geographic coordinates, according to the address declared in the Clinical History. The industries were classified as Harmful and Dangerous. Planar type maps were elaborated with the program ArcGis 10.1, Esri. The statistics were performed using absolute and relative frequencies. The association between industrial zones and the presence of lesions was evaluated through Correspondence Analysis. Results: There was an association between the presence of non-malignant lesions with dangerous industries and malignant lesions with harmful industries. Areas with dangerous and harmful industries were associated with the presence of potentially malignant disorders. Discussion: Our results allowed us to determine environmental risk patterns in the city of Córdoba, which could be applied to analyze and / or solve different aspects of public health in relation to oral cancer. |

La contaminación proviene de las actividades que realiza el hombre a todo nivel. Muchas de las sustancias contaminantes no tienen acción inmediata en la salud y originan enfermedades crónicas de larga duración como el cáncer.Un aporte importante en la investigación del cáncer oral es estudiar las relaciones entre el espacio y la salud comunitaria. Los Sistemas de Información Geográfica (SIG) constituyen un conjunto informático (de software y hardware) que permiten analizar datos geográficos y espaciales como eventos, personas y características ambientales.El objetivo de trabajo fue determinar la distribución espacial de pacientes con cáncer bucal y otras lesiones orales, utilizando Sistemas de Información Geográfica y establecer posible asociación con la presencia de industrias de diferentes tipos, en la Ciudad de Córdoba. Métodos: Estudio retrospectivo de Historias Clínicas de pacientes de ambos sexos (n=476), que asistieron al Consultorio Externo de la Cátedra “A” de Estomatología de la Facultad de Odontología (UNC), período 2008 - 2014. Las lesiones se agruparon en: benignas, desórdenes orales potencialmente malignos (leucoplasias y líquenes orales) y cáncer oral. Los pacientes se geolocalizaron, mediante localización espacial de coordenadas geográficas, según domicilio declarado en Historia Clínica.Las industrias fueron clasificadas en Nocivas y Peligrosas Se elaboraron mapas de tipo planar con programa ArcGis 10.1, Esri. La estadística se realizó mediante frecuencias absolutas y relativas. La asociación entre zonas industriales y presencia de lesiones se evaluó mediante Análisis de Correspondencia. Resultados: Se encontró asociación entre presencia de lesiones no malignas con industrias peligrosas y lesiones malignas con industrias nocivas. Las zonas con industrias peligrosas y nocivas se relacionaron con la presencia de desórdenes potencialmente maligno. Discusión. Nuestros resultados permitieron determinar patrones ambientales de riesgo en la ciudad de Córdoba, que podrían ser aplicados a analizar y/o solucionar diferentes aspectos de la salud pública en relación al cáncer bucal.
