Abstract:
Objective This study aims to evaluate factors related to quality of life of patients with oral cancer.Methods CNKI,Wanfang,VIP,CBM,Pubmed,Medline,Web of Science,Embase,and The Cochrane Library were searched up to May 2023 for studies that evaluated the quality of life of patients with oral cancer.All the included studies were independently selected,extracted,and rated by two researchers,and results are summarized by qualitative analysis.Results Twenty-four articles on 2 717 patients were included.Factors related to the quality of life of patients with oral cancer mainly included age,tumor TNM stage,radiochemotherapy,and gender,which could be summarized into three as-pects:personal factors,disease-related factors,and surgical factors.More than five studies reported on the analysis of age,gender,tumor TNM stage,pathological stage,neck dissection method,marital status,recurrence,smoking,educa-tion level,etc.The results are relatively consistent.Conclusion The incidence of oral cancer increases,and many fac-tors affected the quality of life.The included literature is a cross-sectional study,and the sample size is limited.The caus-al relationship between relevant factors and quality of life should be verified using large sample sizes.
