Abstract
Objective
This study investigated the bidirectional longitudinal association between subjective oral health (SOH) and subjective well-being (SWB) over time.
Methods
This cohort study was based on a four-wave surveys conducted by the English Longitudinal Study of Aging. SOH was measured by oral impacts on daily performance (OIDP), self-rated oral health (SROH), and SWB was measured by the Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression (CES-D) scale, Control, Autonomy, Self-Realization, and Pleasure (CASP-19), and satisfaction with life scale (SWLS). To evaluate the bidirectional associations between SOH and SWB, separate models were created using SOH and SWB as the outcome and exposure, respectively. Additionally, the synchronous and lagged effects of exposure on outcomes were checked by employing exposures measured at different time points. A generalized estimating equation model was fitted, including the exposure variables, outcome variables in the previous wave, and baseline covariates.
Results
Among 4,510 participants (mean age=61.7 years [1SD=7.9], men=43.1 %), 8.1 %, 18.2 %, 14.3 %, 30.5 %, and 25.0 % had poor SOH and SWB as measured by OIDP, SROH, CES-D, CASP-19, and SWLS at baseline, respectively. The results of the regression models with all combinations of SOH and SWB measures showed that poor conditions of SOH or SWB were significantly associated with poor conditions of the other measures (all p < 0.05). In almost all combinations of SOH and SWB measures, the synchronous effect was stronger than the lagged effect.
Conclusion
SOH and SWB are closely linked, and comprehensive care that considers oral health could contribute to well-being later in life.
期刊介绍:
Archives of Gerontology and Geriatrics provides a medium for the publication of papers from the fields of experimental gerontology and clinical and social geriatrics. The principal aim of the journal is to facilitate the exchange of information between specialists in these three fields of gerontological research. Experimental papers dealing with the basic mechanisms of aging at molecular, cellular, tissue or organ levels will be published.
Clinical papers will be accepted if they provide sufficiently new information or are of fundamental importance for the knowledge of human aging. Purely descriptive clinical papers will be accepted only if the results permit further interpretation. Papers dealing with anti-aging pharmacological preparations in humans are welcome. Papers on the social aspects of geriatrics will be accepted if they are of general interest regarding the epidemiology of aging and the efficiency and working methods of the social organizations for the health care of the elderly.
