Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the occurrence and influencing factors of oral frailty among the elderly in China.Methods:General information questionnaire,Oral Frailty Scale,Sarcopenia Screening Questionnaire(SARC-F),Social Network Scale-6(LSNS-6)and Subjective Cognitive Decline Questionnaire(SCD-Q9)were used to conduct a survey in Anhui Province.A survey was conducted among 3 063 elderly people to analyze their current status and influencing factors related to oral frailty.Results:The incidence of oral frailty among the elderly in Anhui Province was 46.82%(1434/3063).Binary logistic regression analysis showed sarcopenia(OR=8.742,95%CI:7.156-10.679),social isolation(OR=1.601,95%CI:1.313-1.953),and subjective cogni-tive decline(OR=2.424,95%CI:1.905-3.085),90 years old and above(OR=2.261,95%CI:1.304-3.922)and having disability(OR=1.341,95%CI:1.040~1.729)are risk factors for oral frailty in the elderly in Anhui Province.Conclusion:The incidence of oral frailty is high among the elderly in Anhui Province.Risk factors for oral frailty include sarcopenia,social isolation,subjective cognitive decline,advanced age,and disability.
