Objective: Malignant soft tissue sarcoma (MSTS) is a rare disease, but is seen in patients undergoing orthopedic surgery. Although the association of periodontal disease with various cancers occurring in the oral cavity, gastrointestinal tract, lungs, and prostate, has been reported, the association between periodontal disease and MSTS remains unclear. This study investigated the association between periodontal disease and MSTS in patients undergoing orthopedic surgery. Subjects and Methods: One hundred fifteen patients who underwent orthopedic surgery between 2017 and 2021 were retrospectively enrolled (mean age = 66.8 ± 10.7 years). The patient background was adjusted by the propensity score (PS). Subsequently, the association of periodontal disease with MSTS was analyzed using PS inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW). Periodontal status was determined by evaluating the periodontal inflamed surface area, which was calculated by measuring the periodontal probing pocket depth and detecting bleeding on probing. Results: Multivariate logistic regression analysis after adjustment by the PS showed that severe periodontitis was significantly associated with MSTS (odds ratio 2.81, p = 0.04). Furthermore, IPTW showed that severe periodontitis was significantly associated with MSTS (odds ratio 3.21, p = 0.01). Conclusion: The results indicate an association between periodontal inflammation and MSTS.

<p><b>Objective:</b> Buzen City is developing a home-visit dental-care project for the elderly. In this study, we surveyed and analyzed oral health before and after oral care with an aim to clarify the relationship between and changes in nutrition, nutrient intake, diversity of food intake, oral health, and general health conditions.</p><p>Activity Content: In all, 207 residents of Buzen City aged 65 years or higher participated in our study. The baseline assessment included the determination of oral, physical, and nutritional status and dietary intake along with blood tests. Dentists, dental hygienists, and registered dietitians provided oral care and nutritional guidance to the participants, after which the participants were re-evaluated.</p><p><b>Results:</b> The participants' skeletal muscle index and mass after receiving oral care were significantly higher than the corresponding values at baseline. Furthermore, following oral care, the percentage of participants with good nutritional status increased. Therefore, multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed using the Mini Nutritional Assessment Short Form (MNA-SF) during the re-assessment. Consequently, we found that the baseline SMI and dietary variety score (DVS) were significantly associated with malnutrition.</p><p>Future Tasks: This study is a practical and significant approach, since improvement in oral, nutritional, and general health conditions. Home-visit dental treatment and oral care provide an advantage in terms of understanding the eating habits and living conditions of individuals. However, there are few cases of collaboration between dentists and registered dietitians. In the future, we aim to develop a model system of oral nutrition collaboration.</p>

自衛隊員は訓練期間中に口腔内環境が悪化しやすいため,適切な歯科保健行動による歯科疾患の予防が望まれる.これまでに自衛隊員の訓練期間中の歯科保健行動に影響を与える要因については明らかにされていない.本研究は陸上自衛隊員を対象としてアンケートおよび歯科健診を実施し,訓練期間中の歯科保健行動に影響を与える因子について検討した.平成26年にA駐屯地で歯科健診を受診した男性隊員658名を調査対象とした(平均年齢=35.2±9.4歳).健診時に得られた地域歯周疾患歯数(Community Periodontal Index)を用いて評価された歯周状態と歯科保健行動に関するアンケートを解析した.対象者の歯科保健行動を過去1年間の歯科受診歴で比較した結果,歯科受診歴あり群は歯科受診歴なし群と比較して訓練期間中の「歯ブラシの使用頻度」および「歯磨剤の使用頻度」が有意に高かった(p<0.01).その後,歯科保健行動を歯周疾患の総合的診断プログラム(FSPD34型)に該当する尺度に当てはめパス解析を行った結果,「歯科受診行動」と非訓練期間中および訓練期間中の「歯口清掃行動」との間に有意な関連を認めた.また,非訓練期間中および訓練期間中の「歯口清掃行動」は有意に相関していた(非標準化係数=0.38,p<0.01).本研究結果から,陸上自衛隊員における訓練期間中の歯科保健行動に「過去1年間の歯科受診歴」が関連している可能性が示唆された.(著者抄録)
