Abstract

Background: The association between temporomandibular joint (TMJ) structural abnormalities and quality of life (QoL) in patients with pain-related temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) remains unclear.

Methods: A cross-sectional study of 103 patients evaluated associations between TMJ imaging findings, functional measures, and TMD-specific QoL.

Results: Exploratory analyses identified associations of DDwoR and moderate joint effusion with functional QoL. Subchondral cysts showed an exploratory association with poorer functional QoL. An exploratory indirect-association analysis suggested that maximum mouth opening may be involved in the association between structural burden and functional QoL.

Conclusions: Selected TMJ imaging findings showed exploratory associations with the functional domain of TMD-specific QoL.

影像学评估的颞下颌关节表现与疼痛相关颞下颌疾病患者tmd特异性生活质量之间的关系：一项横断面研究。

背景：疼痛相关性颞下颌关节紊乱（TMDs）患者的颞下颌关节（TMJ）结构异常与生活质量（QoL）之间的关系尚不清楚。方法：对103例患者进行横断面研究，评估TMJ影像学表现、功能测量和tmd特异性生活质量之间的关系。结果：探索性分析确定了DDwoR和中度关节积液与功能性生活质量的关系。软骨下囊肿与较差的功能性生活质量有探索性的关联。一项探索性间接关联分析表明，最大开口可能参与了结构负担与功能性生活质量之间的关联。结论：选定的TMJ影像学结果显示与tmd特异性生活质量的功能域存在探索性关联。

期刊介绍： CRANIO: The Journal of Craniomandibular & Sleep Practice is the oldest and largest journal in the world devoted to temporomandibular disorders, and now also includes articles on all aspects of sleep medicine. The Journal is multidisciplinary in its scope, with editorial board members from all areas of medicine and dentistry, including general dentists, oral surgeons, orthopaedists, radiologists, chiropractors, professors and behavioural scientists, physical therapists, acupuncturists, osteopathic and ear, nose and throat physicians. CRANIO publishes commendable works from outstanding researchers and clinicians in their respective fields. The multidisciplinary format allows individuals practicing with a TMD emphasis to stay abreast of related disciplines, as each issue presents multiple topics from overlapping areas of interest. CRANIO''s current readership (thousands) is comprised primarily of dentists; however, many physicians, physical therapists, chiropractors, osteopathic physicians and other related specialists subscribe and contribute to the Journal.
