Abstract
|
|
|
Objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships between smoking and recognition of oral and general symptoms, outpatient visits, and subjective health were analyzed.
Methods: Anonymous data were obtained for 16,262 people from the Japanese national survey in 2013, and the data for 7,908 people in the 40- to 79-year age group were analyzed. Items for analysis were smoking, drinking, and other lifestyle habits, recognition of oral and general symptoms, outpatient visits, and subjective health.
Results: The percentage of smokers was higher among those with no respiratory symptoms (26.7%, p<0.01), those who did not have outpatient visits (25.7%, p<0.01), and alcohol drinker (30.7%, p<0.01). On logistic regression analysis, the odds ratio for subjective health was significant for having subjective symptoms (8.766, p<0.01), stress (4.050, p<0.01), and being a smoker (1.250, p=0.058).
Conclusion: Comparisons of the percentage of smokers by recognition of symptoms and outpatient visits suggest that the public is becoming well-informed, but that stronger smoking cessation guidance for dental health may be necessary
