Abstract

Objective: To estimate the discrepancies between global ratings of oral health and general health and investigate the factors associated with self-rated oral health (SROH) and self-rated general health (SRGH).

Methods: Data were collected from 502 participants aged 18 to 81 years. A structured questionnaire was used to obtain data regarding sociodemographic characteristics and self-reported conditions. Global self-ratings of oral health and general health were the main outcomes. Discrepancies between self-ratings of oral health and general health were stratified by independent variables. Bayesian ordinal logistic regression models were fitted to estimate the posterior distributions of parameters and 95% credible intervals (95% CrI).

Results: The proportion of participants who rated their oral health worse than general health was 28.6% (95% CrI: 24.7-32.3). Negative discrepancies between SROH and SRGH were associated with being men, reporting gingivitis, and lower income. Sex (95% CrI: 1.12-2.25) impacted only on SRGH. Income (SROH - 95% CrI: 1.52-6.40; SRGH - 95% CrI: 1.08-4.56), tertiary education (SROH - 95% CrI: 1.13-2.53; SRGH - 95% CrI: 1.01-2.32), self-reported missing teeth (SROH - 95% CrI: 1.57-3.46; SRGH - 95% CrI: 2.21-4.92), self-reported gingivitis (SROH - 95% CrI: 1.10-2.40; SRGH - 95% CrI: 1.71-3.82), and self-reported chronic health problem (SROH - 95% CrI: 1.38-3.08; SRGH - 95% CrI: 1.61-3.59) impacted on both outcomes.

Conclusions: Substantial discrepancies between self-rated oral health and self-rated general health were found and were associated with being male, reporting gingivitis, and having lower income.

全球口腔健康自我评价与一般健康之间的关联和差异:贝叶斯方法。

目的:评估口腔健康总体评分与一般健康评分之间的差异，并探讨影响自评口腔健康(SROH)和自评一般健康(SRGH)的相关因素。方法:收集年龄在18 ~ 81岁的502名参与者的资料。采用结构化问卷来获取有关社会人口特征和自我报告状况的数据。口腔健康和一般健康的总体自我评价是主要结果。口腔健康自我评价与一般健康之间的差异通过自变量分层。拟合贝叶斯有序逻辑回归模型来估计参数的后验分布和95%可信区间(95% CrI)。结果:认为口腔健康状况比一般健康状况差的参与者比例为28.6% (95% CrI: 24.7-32.3)。SROH和SRGH之间的负差异与男性、报告牙龈炎和低收入有关。性别(95% CrI: 1.12-2.25)仅影响SRGH。收入(SROH - 95% CrI: 1.52-6.40;SRGH - 95% CrI: 1.08-4.56)，高等教育(SROH - 95% CrI: 1.13-2.53;SRGH - 95% CrI: 1.01-2.32)，自我报告缺牙(SROH - 95% CrI: 1.57-3.46;SRGH - 95% CrI: 2.21-4.92)，自我报告的牙龈炎(SROH - 95% CrI: 1.10-2.40;SRGH - 95% CrI: 1.71-3.82)和自我报告的慢性健康问题(SROH - 95% CrI: 1.38-3.08;SRGH (95% CrI: 1.61-3.59)对两种结果均有影响。结论:发现自评口腔健康与自评一般健康之间存在显著差异，且与男性、报告牙龈炎和收入较低有关。

期刊介绍： The journal is concerned with dental public health and related subjects. Dental public health is the science and the art of preventing oral disease, promoting oral health, and improving the quality of life through the organised efforts of society. The discipline covers a wide range and includes such topics as: -oral epidemiology- oral health services research- preventive dentistry - especially in relation to communities- oral health education and promotion- clinical research - with particular emphasis on the care of special groups- behavioural sciences related to dentistry- decision theory- quality of life- risk analysis- ethics and oral health economics- quality assessment. The journal publishes scientific articles on the relevant fields, review articles, discussion papers, news items, and editorials. It is of interest to dentists working in dental public health and to other professionals concerned with disease prevention, health service planning, and health promotion throughout the world. In the case of epidemiology of oral diseases the Journal prioritises national studies unless local studies have major methodological innovations or information of particular interest.
