概要	This cross-sectional study investigated the relationship between white matter lesions (WMLs) and self-reported chewing status among Japanese adults. The participants were 570 individuals (369 males, 201 females; mean age, 54.0 years) who underwent brain dock checkups at Asahi University Hospital Human Health Center between April 2019 and March 2020. Presence of WMLs was positively related with age (older; odds ratio [OR], 1.130; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.100 to 1.161), body mass index (BMI) (higher; OR, 1.103; 95%CI, 1.038 to 1.171), and chewing status (difficulty; OR, 2.794; 95%CI, 1.617 to 4.827) after adjusting for gender, HbA1c, hypertension, heart disease, and medication history. In conclusion, presence of WMLs in Japanese adults showed a relationship with self-reported chewing difficulty.
