目的探讨患者神经质对全口义齿佩戴者口腔健康相关生活质量的影响。背景全口义齿的预后有一些指标。全口义齿佩戴者的人格特征（主要是神经质）与OHRQoL之间的关系尚不清楚。材料与方法本研究共纳入无牙患者199例。神经质的调查使用日本版的修改简短的艾森克人格问卷（MS - EPQ）。OHRQoL根据日本版无牙受试者口腔健康影响概况（OHIP‐EDENT‐J）进行测量。结构方程模型用于评估神经质与OHIP - EDENT - J量表之间的关系。结果高神经质组和低神经质组在OHIP - EDENT - j -功能限制、疼痛、残疾、不适和残疾5个分量表上均符合相同的模型，但路径系数不同。从功能限制到残疾，通过疼痛，残疾和不适的路径与先前报道的相同。然而，疼痛到残疾的路径系数在两个神经质组之间有显著差异。高神经质组的疼痛路径系数比低神经质组高。这一发现表明，高度神经质的参与者对疼痛的感觉更强烈，他们的残疾也增加了。结论神经质可能会影响全口义齿佩戴者的OHRQoL。
ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of patient neuroticism on oral health‐related quality of life (OHRQoL) in complete denture wearers.BackgroundThere are some indicators of complete denture prognosis. The relationship between personality traits, mainly neuroticism and OHRQoL in complete denture wearers remains unclear.Materials and methodsA total of 199 edentulous patients participated in this study. Neuroticism was investigated using the Japanese version of the modified short form of the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (MS‐EPQ). OHRQoL was measured according to the Japanese version of the Oral Health Impact Profile for edentulous subjects (OHIP‐EDENT‐J). Structural equation modelling was used to evaluate the relationship between neuroticism and subscales of the OHIP‐EDENT‐J.ResultsThe High and Low neuroticism groups fit the same model for the 5 subscales of the OHIP‐EDENT‐J—functional limitation, pain, disability, discomfort and handicap—with different path coefficients. The path from functional limitation to handicap via pain, disability and discomfort was the same as previously reported. However, path coefficients for pain to disability differed significantly between the 2 neuroticism groups. The High neuroticism group had higher estimated path coefficients for Pain compared with those for other subscales than did the Low neuroticism group. This finding indicates that the participants who are high in neuroticism felt pain more strongly, and their disability increased.ConclusionsNeuroticism may influence OHRQoL in complete denture wearers because of patients' perception of pain.
