The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between hypertension and oral health in about 2,000 male Japanese factory workers. The results obtained were as follows: in both current smokers and nonsmokers, the results for hypertension patient groups showed a significantly higher CPITN (Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs) than healthy control groups. The results of regression analysis indicated that systolic blood pressure was significantly associated with CPITN in the nonsmoking patients without hypertension. The results suggested that there was significant relationship between periodontal disease and the prevalence of hypertension among employees in a company.
本研究旨在调查约2000名日本男性工厂工人的高血压与口腔健康之间的关系。所得结果如下:在当前吸烟者和非吸烟者中,高血压患者组的社区牙周治疗需求指数(CPITN)均显著高于健康对照组。回归分析结果表明,在无高血压的非吸烟患者中,收缩压与CPITN显著相关。结果提示,牙周疾病与公司员工中高血压患病率之间存在显著关系。
