“…The findings correlate with the data in general population (23). Also, according to the data found by previous studies, voice problems are more frequent in women (4,12,21) because they have shorter vocal folds that produce higher fundamental frequency and because of smaller quantity of vocal folds hyaluronic acid that is essential for wound repair (25).…”

“…Previous reports have shown the presence of vocal nodules in 16.9% of teachers and 4.34% in control group; vocal polyp was revealed in 2.4% of teachers (22). In the general population study occurrence of vocal nodules was 1.5% and vocal polyp 0.4% (23). Reported rates are probably different because of different study population and methodological approach.…”

“…20–23 To measure physical activity, the participants were asked about the number of days they engaged in vigorous exercise with considerable shortness of breath for >10 minutes in the last week and the number of days they engaged in moderate exercise with slight shortness of breath for >10 minutes in the last week. 21 Monthly income was separated into lowest, low-middle, upper-middle, and highest quartiles, 20–23 based on methods recommended by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development 24 (dividing household income by the square root of the number of household members). To explore the influence of the education level, the “low” education group was defined as uneducated participants and those who had graduated only from elementary or middle schools, whereas high school comprised the “middle” group, and junior college graduates, graduate school, and college graduates were assigned to the “high” group.…”

The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between falls and obesity using Asian body mass index (BMI) classifications. Using the data from the Korean community health survey in 2011, a total of 229,226 participants ranging from 19 to 106 years old were included in this study. The BMI groups were classified as underweight (<18.5), healthy (18.5 ≤ BMI < 23), overweight (23 ≤ BMI <25), and obese (≥25) using Asian BMI classifications. The associations between BMI groups and falls (≥1 time or ≥2 times per year) were analyzed using multiple logistic regression analyses with complex sampling. A subgroup analysis was conducted according to age (19–40, 41–60, and ≥61 years) and the location of the fall (indoor and outdoor). Physical activity, household income, education level, alcohol consumption, smoking, stress level, and medical comorbidities were adjusted as confounders. In total, 16.8% and 6.1% of the participants experienced falls ≥1 time and ≥2 times per year, respectively. Compared to the healthy weight group, the other BMI groups showed a significant U-shaped relationship with falls ≥1 time (AOR underweight = 1.12, 95% CI [confidence interval] = 1.05–1.19; AOR obese = 1.06, 95% CI = 1.02–1.10, P < 0.001) and ≥2 times (AOR underweight = 1.14, 95% CI = 1.04–1.26; AOR obese = 1.04, 95% CI = 0.99–1.10, P < 0.001). Obese status was significantly associated with falls (≥1 fall per year) in all age groups, whereas being underweight was significantly associated with falls in the 19 to 40 year age group only. In conclusion, both underweight and obese statuses were significantly associated with falls in this adult Korean population. However, the relationship between BMI group and falls varied according to age and the location of the falls.

Abstract-The aim of the present study was to develop a prediction model for subjective voice disorders based on an artificial neural network algorithm and a decision tree using national statistical data. Subjects of analysis were 8,713 adults over the age of 19 (3,801 males and 4,912 females) who completed the otolaryngological examination of the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2010 to 2012. Explanatory variables included age, education level, income, occupation, problem drinking, coffee consumption, and pain and discomfort from disease over the last two weeks. A multi-layer perceptron artificial neural network and a decision tree model were used for the analysis. In this model, smoking, pain and discomfort from disease over the last two weeks, education level, occupation, and income were drawn out as major predictors of subjective voice disorders. In order to minimize the risk of dysphonia, it is necessary to establish a scientific management system for high-risk groups.
