目的探讨印度学龄前儿童早期儿童龋病的危险因素。方法采用病例对照研究的方法,将380名儿童按DEF分成两组。研究组(病例)包括被诊断为ECC的儿童(Def>0)。将这些病例与对照组进行比较,对照组包括无龋组(def=0)。结果ECC组的危险因素有头胎(OR 4.18,95%CI 1.98~8.80)、每天吃零食3次以上(OR 2.78,95%CI 1.41~5.47)、瓶装饮用水(OR 4.58,95%CI 2.13~9.86)、牙膏涂抹量(OR 4.99,95%CI 2.54~9.81)、母亲失业(OR 3.45,CI 2.54~9.81)。95%可信区间1.70~6.99,儿童日托人员OR8.49,95%可信区间3.98~18.10。结论最常见的危险因素是出生顺序、每天零食3次以上、饮用水源、牙膏涂抹量以上、母亲工作状况和儿童日托人员。
Aim To investigate the risk factors for early childhood caries (ECC) among Indian preschool children.Methods This case control study recruited 380 children who were divided into two groups based on their def scores. The study group (cases) included children who were diagnosed with ECC (def > 0). The cases were compared with the control group which included children who were caries free (def = 0). Data were statistically analysed using chi(2) test and multiple logistic regression analysis.Results Risk factors specific to the ECC group were first born child (OR 4.18, 95 % CI 1.98-8.80), snacking more than thrice per day (OR 2.78, 95 % CI 1.41-5.47), bottled drinking water (OR 4.58, 95 % CI 2.13-9.86), use of more than a smear amount of toothpaste (OR 4.99, 95 % CI 2.54-9.81), mother unemployed (OR 3.45, 95 % CI 1.70-6.99) and day care person of the child (OR 8.49, 95 % CI 3.98-18.10).Conclusions Most common risk factors were order of birth, snacking more than thrice per day, source of drinking water, use of more than a smear amount of toothpaste, mother's work status and day care person of the child.
