| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We analyzed the association between oral function, nutritional status, and cognitive function in 186 subjects. There were 74 males and 110 females. As a result of t-tests for tongue pressure, cognitive function, grip strength, and swallowing screening (EAT) in two groups with or less than 20 remaining teeth and with or without dentures, the results were significantly higher in those with 20 or more remaining teeth in the D-CAT test, which is a test of attention function and executive function, and in the Stroop test, which is a cognitive function test of attention function and executive function, the number of remaining teeth of 20 or more (p<.001, p<.006) (p<.001、ｐ<.000）。 However, there was no significant difference between the condition of these teeth and tongue pressure and EAT. In addition, tongue pressure was significantly correlated with age, grip strength, EAT, and cognitive function in terms of correlation with age, grip strength, and Stroop test.
