| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The questionnaire analysis showed that scores of physical and oral frailty gradually increased with age; and the important age might be in the 50s-60s for oral frailty, and the assessment on “spilled food” and “eating difficulty” might be significant. The assessment of dietary recognition was consistent, and those of eating habits and eating action were improved after age 40. Geniohyoid muscle (GH) cross-sectional area (CSA)was significantly affected by age, gender, height, weight, tongue pressure, jaw-opening strength, swallowing sound duration, and GH velocity. GH CSA influenced swallowing and mastication. The bioimpedance analysis showed positive relationship between occlusal force and muscle volume of arms was found. A change to fast muscle was found in the no occlusal support group.
The above results suggested that the muscle volume would be a significant biomarker, whereas fast/ slow muscle and movement speed would not be significant contrary to the expectation.
