Abstract
본 연구는 2013~2014년 국민건강영양조사 원시자료를 사용하여 만 19세 이상 성인을 대상으로 성별을 구분하여 평균 음주량 및 폭음 빈도와 치주염의 관련성을 살펴보았다. 평균 음주량과 치주염과의 관련성을 살펴본 결과, 남자에서는 평균 음주량과 치주염은 J자 형태의 관련성을 보였으며, 특히 경도 음주군을 기준으로 중등도 음주군(1.25배)과 고도 음주군(1.39배)에서 치주염 위험이 유의하게 증가하였다. 반면, 여자에서는 평균 음주량과 치주염은 유의한 관련성이 없었다. 폭음 빈도와 치주염과의 관련성 연구 결과, 남자에서는 폭음 빈도가 증가할수록 치주염의 위험이 유의하게 높아지는 경향을 보였지만, 여자에서는 폭음 빈도와 치주염은 유의한 관련성이 없었다. 결론적으로 본 연구를 통해 남자에서 과도한 음주량 및 폭음을 하는 경우 치주염이 유의하게 증가함을 확인하였다. 지역사회에서 치주염 예방을 위해서는 올바른 음주습관 형성을 위한 정확한 정보제공과 다양한 홍보교육 전략이 필요할 것이다. We investigated the gender-specific association between average volume of alcohol consumption, binge drinking, and periodontitis using representative nationwide data. In total, we included 3,549 men and 4,810 women, aged 19 years and older, who participated in the sixth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey performed in 2013~2014. According to the average volume of alcohol consumption, study participants were grouped as follows: mild drinkers (0.1~2.0 drinks/day in men and 0.1~1.0 drink/day in women), moderate drinkers (2.1~4.0 drinks/day in men and 1.1~2.0 drinks/day in women), and heavy drinkers (>4.0 drinks/day in men and >2.0 drinks/day in women). Additionally, binge drinking was categorized as never (no binge drinking), rarely (<1 time/month), occasionally (1 time/month), frequently (1 time/week), and always (almost every day/week). Periodontitis was defined as a community periodontal index equal to code 3 or greater. In men, after controlling for covariates, the association between average volume of alcohol consumption and periodontitis showed a J-shaped curve; the risk of periodontitis was significantly higher in moderate drinkers (odds ratio [OR], 1.25; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.01~1.56) and heavy drinkers (OR, 1.39; 95% CI, 1.04~1.87) than in mild drinkers. In contrast, no significant association between average volume of alcohol consumption and periodontitis was observed in women. In a fully adjusted analysis, which used 'never binge drinking' as a reference, a significant dose-response relationship between binge drinking and periodontitis was observed only in men: rarely (OR, 1.64; 95% CI, 1.16~2.34), occasionally (OR, 1.51; 95% CI, 1.05~2.16), frequently (OR, 1.58; 95% CI, 1.07~2.33), and always (OR, 2.56; 95% CI, 1.56~4.22) (p for trend=0.005). In conclusion, unhealthy drinking patterns such as moderate or heavy alcohol consumption and binge drinking were significantly associated with periodontitis in men but not in women.
