Abstract

Objectives: To examine the associations among handgrip force (HF), maximum bite force (MBF) and body mass index (BMI) in individuals of the same age group across both genders. It also explores the laterality correlation between MBF and HF. Furthermore, to establish a simple approach for clinical MBF assessment, we aimed to develop a predictive model for MBF.

Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 102 healthy young adults (51 males, 51 females) underwent MBF measurement via a dental bite force tester and HF via a digital dynamometer. BMI was calculated from height and weight. Spearman's correlation assessed variable relationships and laterality patterns; gender differences were analysed using Mann-Whitney U tests. A multiple regression model was constructed to predict MBF.

Results: MBF and HF were significantly correlated in both genders (p < 0.01). BMI showed a stronger influence on MBF and HF in females (p < 0.01). Laterality correlations between HF and MBF were also stronger in females. Males exhibited higher HF and BMI (p < 0.01), while MBF showed no significant gender difference (p = 0.536).

Conclusion: HF and BMI are strong predictors for MBF. The developed predictive model offers a practical and objective tool for MBF assessment in healthy young adults.

Clinical relevance: This model provides a simple, reliable method for clinical evaluation of MBF.

Trial registration: ChiCTR2500097064.

基于握力与BMI的健康青年最大咬合力预测模型的相关性与发展

目的：探讨同一年龄组男女个体的握力（HF）、最大咬合力（MBF）和身体质量指数（BMI）之间的关系。本文还探讨了MBF与HF的横向相关性。此外，为了建立一种简单的临床MBF评估方法，我们旨在建立一个MBF的预测模型。方法：在这项横断面研究中，102名健康年轻人（51名男性，51名女性）通过牙齿咬合力测试仪测量MBF，通过数字测功仪测量HF。BMI由身高和体重计算得出。Spearman相关评估变量关系和横向模式；使用Mann-Whitney U测试分析性别差异。建立多元回归模型对MBF进行预测。结果：MBF和HF在两性中均显著相关(p)。结论：HF和BMI是MBF的强预测因子。所建立的预测模型为健康青年MBF的评估提供了实用、客观的工具。临床意义：该模型为临床评价MBF提供了一种简单、可靠的方法。试验注册：ChiCTR2500097064。

期刊介绍： Journal of Oral Rehabilitation aims to be the most prestigious journal of dental research within all aspects of oral rehabilitation and applied oral physiology. It covers all diagnostic and clinical management aspects necessary to re-establish a subjective and objective harmonious oral function. Oral rehabilitation may become necessary as a result of developmental or acquired disturbances in the orofacial region, orofacial traumas, or a variety of dental and oral diseases (primarily dental caries and periodontal diseases) and orofacial pain conditions. As such, oral rehabilitation in the twenty-first century is a matter of skilful diagnosis and minimal, appropriate intervention, the nature of which is intimately linked to a profound knowledge of oral physiology, oral biology, and dental and oral pathology. The scientific content of the journal therefore strives to reflect the best of evidence-based clinical dentistry. Modern clinical management should be based on solid scientific evidence gathered about diagnostic procedures and the properties and efficacy of the chosen intervention (e.g. material science, biological, toxicological, pharmacological or psychological aspects). The content of the journal also reflects documentation of the possible side-effects of rehabilitation, and includes prognostic perspectives of the treatment modalities chosen.
