Abstract

OBJECTIVE

The purpose of this study was to assess oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in patients with burning mouth syndrome (BMS) and to identify clinical factors associated with OHRQoL.

METHODS

Fifty-seven patients with BMS (56.4 ± 10.7 years) participated in the study. Patients underwent oral examination, laboratory tests, psychological evaluation, measurement of salivary flow rates and evaluation of clinical characteristics using a BMS questionnaire. The OHRQoL of patients was assessed using the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14).

RESULTS

The OHIP-14 score for patients with BMS was 38.6 ± 12.8. Patients had higher scores for the psychological discomfort and physical pain dimensions of the OHIP-14. The intensity of taste disturbance or xerostomia symptoms (β = 0.464, P < .001), worry about symptoms (β = 0.307, P = .020), and results of psychological evaluation (β = 0.311, P = .026) were significantly associated with OHIP-14 score. Multiple linear regression showed that the intensity of taste disturbance or xerostomia symptoms was significantly associated with decreased OHRQoL (β = 0.637, P = .026).

CONCLUSIONS

This study suggests that severity of taste disturbance or xerostomia is an important factor that influences OHRQoL in patients with BMS.

摘要

目的

本研究旨在评估灼口综合征（BMS）患者的口腔健康相关生活质量（OHRQoL），并确定与 OHRQoL 相关的临床因素。

方法

本研究纳入了 57 名 BMS 患者（56.4±10.7 岁）。患者接受了口腔检查、实验室检查、心理评估、唾液流率测量以及使用 BMS 问卷评估临床特征。采用口腔健康影响量表-14（OHIP-14）评估患者的 OHRQoL。

结果

BMS 患者的 OHIP-14 评分为 38.6±12.8。患者在 OHIP-14 的心理不适和身体疼痛维度上的得分较高。味觉障碍或口干症状的强度（β=0.464，P<.001）、对症状的担忧（β=0.307，P=.020）以及心理评估结果（β=0.311，P=.026）与 OHIP-14 评分显著相关。多元线性回归显示，味觉障碍或口干症状的强度与 OHRQoL 下降显著相关（β=0.637，P=.026）。
