“…We also found that participants with lower personal income had significantly higher S-OHIP(M) scores, indicating more severe oral impact, in agreement with a study of OHRQOL among PLWHA in Sydney, Australia [ 39 ]. Besides income, other studies reported that individual characteristics, such as sex and ethnicity, were significantly associated with the OHRQOL of PLWHA [ 40 ].…”

BackgroundHealth-related quality of life (HRQOL) is a multidimensional construct that refers to an individual’s self-perceived well-being. This study used the revised Wilson and Cleary HRQOL model to investigate the associations among oral symptoms, oral health-related quality of life (OHRQOL), and HRQOL of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) in Malaysia.MethodsA total of 121 PLWHA receiving medical care in Kota Bharu (Kelantan, Malaysia) participated in this cross-sectional study. The Malay version of the short Oral Health Impact Profile (S-OHIP(M)) and the Malay version of the 36-item Medical Outcome Study Short Form (SF-36) were used to assess OHRQOL and HRQOL, respectively. A higher S-OHIP(M) score indicates greater oral impact and worse OHRQOL; a higher SF-36 score indicates better HRQOL. An additional structured self-administered questionnaire was used to obtain other variables of interest from the participants.ResultsMost participants had at least one oral symptom (69.4%), and the most common oral symptom was a cavitated tooth (55.4%). The prevalence of oral impacts was 33.9%, and the mean S-OHIP(M) score was 8.8 (SD = 7.92). The mean S-OHIP(M) score was significantly higher in participants who had toothaches, cavitated teeth, gum abscesses, and bad breath. In addition, participants with lower S-OHIP(M) scores had significantly higher scores in all SF-36 domains.ConclusionsOur study provides evidence for an association among oral symptoms, OHRQOL, and HRQOL in PLWHA from Malaysia. In particular, the presence of oral symptoms was significantly associated with more severe oral impacts and poorer OHRQOL. The presence of less severe oral impacts was associated with a better HRQOL.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1186/s12903-017-0409-y) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…Also, the wearing denture was the only factor with signi cant association with OHRQoL in multiple regression analysis. In contrast, Jeganathan and coworkers study found that the patients wearing a removable denture had worse OHRQoL than those with natural dentition (18). The difference between the results of these studies and our ndings might be because of the high proportion of decayed and bad quality teeth in our patients' mouth that led to oral symptoms.…”

“…Other studies also could not show a signi cant association between the patients' OHRQoL and the following socioeconomic factors: income per capita (8), number of people residing in the family home (8,17), education level (8), children's heightfor-age ratio (2), household ownership (17). In contrast, studies showed worse OHRQoL for the unemployed (4, 7, 15), brown or black people (4), and those with lower education level (7) and lower personal monthly income (6,7,9,10,18). Also, studies showed that the patients with HIV that had adequate social support experienced better OHRQoL (10,17).…”

Background: In recent years, life expectancy of patients with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) increased. They experienced oral manifestations that could affect their Oral Health Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL). This study was conducted to evaluate OHRQoL in the patients and its related factors. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, using simple random sampling, we selected 250 patients with HIV from Shiraz Voluntary Counseling and Testing center in 2019. To evaluate their OHRQoL, we used Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index revised for patients with HIV. We assessed the association between the patients' OHRQoL and demographic characteristics. Results: The mean score of the patients' OHRQoL was 24.50±6.25. The worst and the best scores were in psychosocial and pain categories, respectively. In univariate analysis, the OHRQoL significantly associated with the patients' age (p=0.005), duration of disease (p=0.008), job (p=0.010), edentulous status (p=0.002), and wearing denture (p<0.001). However, in multiple linear regression analysis, we found only a significant difference between participants wearing and not wearing denture (p=<0.001).Conclusions: The participants declared that they satisfied from averagely 70% of items of OHRQoL. The OHRQoL was significantly better in the patients wearing denture. The finding highlighted the importance of fulfillment of dental needs on improving OHRQoL. Therefore, planning of dental services for patients with HIV is essential so that they have timely access to oral health care. Furthermore, authorities should consider denture as an unmet need in the patients and provide facilities to help the patients to become denture owners.

“…identified a significant correlation between OHIP‐49 and smoking status with oral health impacts prevalent among HIV cigarette smokers. Jeganathan et al . looked at the predictors of oral health quality of life in HIV‐1 infected patients and concluded that smoking is a significant predictor which could be targeted to improve quality of life among people living with HIV.…”

Background A study undertaken in 1992–1993 identified that HIV‐infected dental patients were substantially disadvantaged with regard to the social impact of their oral disease. The oral pain experienced by HIV‐positive patients prior to the introduction of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) was attributable to specific features of HIV‐related periodontal disease and other oral manifestations of HIV such as candida infections and xerostomia. A repeat of this study in 2009–2010 provided additional information in the post‐cART era. Methods Data were collected from three sources: the 2009–2010 HIV‐positive sample, the National Survey of Adult Oral Health (NSAOH) and the original 1992–1993 study. Collation of data was by clinical and radiographic oral examination. Information about the social impact of oral conditions was obtained from the Oral Health Impact Profile. Results The caries experience of the 2009–2010 HIV‐positive sample was improved with statistical significance for both mean DMFT and mean DT, while the presence of HIV‐related periodontal disease still occurs. Statistically significant improvements were achieved for prevalence and severity of oral health related quality of life. Conclusions The need for timely access to oral health care with a focus on prevention is essential for HIV‐positive individuals whose health is impacted by chronic disease, smoking and salivary hypofunction.
