成都市武侯区3~6岁儿童地图舌患病率及发病因素的调查分析

摘要

目的：   调查成都市武侯区3~6岁儿童地图舌患病率，该病发生的相关因素以及患儿家长的看法。方法   采用随机整群抽样，对5所幼儿园、1 033名3~6岁儿童进行口腔检查并向家长发放问卷，对问卷进行统计学分析。结果   武侯区3~6岁儿童地图舌患病率为3.0%，地图舌的发生与口腔溃疡、肠道寄生虫、偏食、呼吸道感染、情绪低落、补锌有关。患儿家长对此病普遍不了解并有些担心，多采取等待自愈措施。结论   应加强对地图舌的宣教工作，引起老师、家长对儿童口腔及全身健康的重视。%  Objective   To investigate the prevalence, risk factors, and attitudes of parents toward children aged 3-6 years old in Wuhou District who are at risk for geographic tongue. Methods   The investigation employed dental checkups for children and survey questionnaires for parents. The study was  conducted on 1 033 children aged 3-6 years old from 5 kindergarten schools and their parents by using a cluster sampling method. All the valid questionnaires were analyzed statistically. Results   The prevalence of geographic tongue among children aged 3-6 years old in Wuhou District was 3.0%. Oral ulcers, intestinal parasites, dietary bias, respiratory infections, depression, and zinc insufficiency were correlated with geographic tongue. This disease was generally unknown and aroused concern among the parents of patients, most of whom were waiting for natural recovery. Conclusion   Publicity and education of geographic tongue should be enhanced to draw the attention of parents and teachers to oral and overall health of children.
