Abstract

Introduction

Burning Mouth Syndrome (BMS) can present with a variety of oral mucosal symptoms such as burning, discomfort, xerostomia, dysgeusia, involving part or all of the mouth and lips but without visible lesions. This study assesses the patients’ understanding of the pathophysiology of their condition and that influence on their outcome.

Material and methods

A single-center, observational, retrospective study was conducted. 136 patients diagnosed with BMS between February 2019 and September 2023 were recruited with follow-up in October 2023.

Results

Patients’ understanding of their diagnosis and symptom improvement were statistically associated in both univariate (OR 7.25; CI 2.26–32.5) and multivariate analyses (OR 4.94; CI 1.31–24.6). A significant association was also found between a shorter history of symptoms and improvement.

Conclusion

A patient's understanding of their condition appears to benefit their outcome.

患者对病理生理学的理解对改善烧灼感综合征症状的作用：一项队列研究。

简介烧灼感口腔综合征（BMS）可表现为各种口腔黏膜症状，如烧灼感、不适、口腔干燥症、口腔溃疡，可涉及部分或全部口腔和嘴唇，但无明显病变。本研究评估了患者对其病理生理学的理解及其对治疗结果的影响：本研究是一项单中心、观察性、回顾性研究。招募了 136 名在 2019 年 2 月至 2023 年 9 月期间被诊断为 BMS 的患者，并于 2023 年 10 月进行了随访：在单变量分析（OR 7.25；CI 2.26-32.5）和多变量分析（OR 4.94；CI 1.31-24.6）中，患者对诊断的理解与症状改善之间存在统计学关联。此外，病史较短与病情改善之间也存在明显关联：结论：患者对自身病情的了解似乎有利于其治疗效果。
