Abstract

BACKGROUND

Dental students are frequently affected by work-related musculoskeletal symptoms (WMSs) due to reasons such as working conditions, difficult education process and long work periods. The aim of the study was to investigate the frequency and anatomical distribution of WMSs, and its effect on the quality of life (QoL) in dental students.

METHODS

Sociodemographic and health-related characteristics of one-hundred and five dental students were recorded. WMSs were scored by the participants with the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire. Then, participants were asked to evaluate their QoL by scoring the World Health Organization Quality of Life-Brief Form. Differences between independent groups for continuous variables were evaluated by Student's t-test and ANOVA as appropriate. Linear regression analysis was performed to determine the effect of demographic and health-related parameters in predicting the QoL subscales.

RESULTS

The most common painful region in the last 12 months was the neck (66.7%). The body region with the most WMSs in the last 7 days was the upper back (43.8%). Physical health-related QoL of those with diagnosed musculoskeletal symptoms, and general health-related QoL of those using medicine due to any musculoskeletal symptoms were found to be statistically significantly lower (p = 0.018, p = 0.041, respectively). It was observed that the general and physical health, psychological well-being, and social relationship of the participants who reported the presence of neck pain in the last 7 days were statistically significantly lower (p = 0.003, p < 0.001, p = 0.004, p = 0.012; respectively). According to multiple regression analyses, pain occurrence in the body in the last 12 months and/or in the last 7 days had a negative impact on the participants' general and physical health, psychological well-being, social relationship, and environmental status and related QoL (p = 0.026, p = 0.047, p = 0.021, p = 0.001, p = 0.027, respectively).

CONCLUSIONS

The results of this study show that dental students' body regions, especially the neck and the back, are affected by WMSs. These negative changes observed in the body had a negative effect on the QoL of the dental students.

摘要

背景

由于工作条件、教育过程困难和工作时间长等原因，牙科学生经常受到与工作相关的肌肉骨骼症状（WMS）的影响。本研究的目的是调查牙科学生 WMS 的频率和解剖分布及其对生活质量（QoL）的影响。

方法

记录了 105 名牙科学生的社会人口统计学和健康相关特征。参与者用北欧肌肉骨骼问卷对 WMS 进行评分。然后，参与者通过对世界卫生组织生活质量简表进行评分来评估他们的生活质量。通过适当的学生 t 检验和方差分析对独立组间的连续变量进行差异评估。进行线性回归分析以确定人口统计学和健康相关参数对预测 QoL 子量表的影响。

结果

在过去 12 个月中最常见的疼痛区域是颈部（66.7%）。在过去 7 天中出现 WMS 最多的身体区域是上背部（43.8%）。患有肌肉骨骼症状诊断的人，以及因任何肌肉骨骼症状而使用药物的人的身体健康相关 QoL 明显较低（p=0.018，p=0.041）。观察到报告过去 7 天颈部疼痛的参与者的一般和身体健康、心理健康、社会关系明显较低（p=0.003，p<0.001，p=0.004，p=0.012）。根据多元回归分析，在过去 12 个月和/或过去 7 天内身体疼痛的发生对参与者的一般和身体健康、心理健康、社会关系以及环境状况和相关 QoL 有负面影响（p=0.026，p=0.047，p=0.021，p=0.001，p=0.027）。
