Abstract

Introduction  Obstructive salivary gland disease is a frequently encountered clinical entity that can present to various health practitioners. Obstructive sialadenitis can lead to recurrent infections and debilitating quality-of-life issues. Objective  There is a paucity of published data regarding obstructive salivary disorders among the multiracial Asian population. The present study aimed to determine the demographic pattern and risk factors of obstructive salivary gland disorders with the goal of better management of this condition. Methods  A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted at a tertiary institution over a period of 5 years. Results  A total of 256 (9.84 for every 1,000) patients were found to have salivary disorders, 10% of who were diagnosed to have obstructive disorder. Among the obstructive salivary disorders, 76% had sialolithiasis, 19% had recurrent parotitis, and 1 patient had chronic sialadenitis. We observed a small female preponderance for obstructive salivary disorders. This study revealed that smoking is a significant risk factor ( p  = 0.041; prevalence ratio = 2.54, 95% confidence interval 1.12-5.78), and smokers were 2.5 times more likely to develop obstructive salivary disorders. There was no statistical correlation between the prevalence and other risk factors like infection, dehydration, intake of medications, history of diabetes mellitus, radiotherapy, and autoimmune disorders. Conclusion  Our study results demonstrated that the prevalence of obstructive salivary gland disorders was 0.1%. This study provided a better understanding of the prevalence and risk factors of obstructive salivary disorders, which facilitate timely management and improves quality of life.

阻塞性唾液腺疾病--马来西亚患者系列。
导言:阻塞性唾液腺疾病是临床上经常遇到的一种疾病,可出现在不同的医疗从业人员身上。阻塞性唾液腺炎可导致反复感染和生活质量下降。目的 有关多种族亚裔人群阻塞性唾液腺疾病的公开数据很少。本研究旨在确定阻塞性唾液腺疾病的人口统计学模式和风险因素,以便更好地治疗这种疾病。方法 在一家三级医院进行了一项为期 5 年的回顾性横断面研究。结果 共发现 256 名(每 1,000 人中有 9.84 名)患者患有唾液腺疾病,其中 10% 被诊断为阻塞性唾液腺疾病。在唾液阻塞性疾病中,76%患有霰粒肿,19%患有复发性腮腺炎,1 名患者患有慢性唾液腺炎。我们观察到,涎腺阻塞性疾病患者中女性占少数。这项研究显示,吸烟是一个重要的风险因素(P = 0.041;患病率比 = 2.54,95% 置信区间为 1.12-5.78),吸烟者患阻塞性唾液腺疾病的几率是正常人的 2.5 倍。发病率与感染、脱水、药物摄入、糖尿病史、放疗和自身免疫性疾病等其他风险因素之间没有统计学相关性。结论 我们的研究结果表明,阻塞性唾液腺疾病的发病率为 0.1%。这项研究使人们对阻塞性唾液腺疾病的发病率和风险因素有了更深入的了解,从而有助于及时治疗和提高生活质量。
