Objectives. To evaluate the relationship among smoking, alcohol consumption, and obesity and benign or malignant parotid tumors in a Korean population. Methods. The Korean National Health Insurance Service-Health Screening Cohort (for ≥40-year-olds) was assessed from 2002 to 2013. In total, 336 benign parotid tumors and 46 malignant parotid tumors were matched with controls at a ratio of 1 to 4 with respect to age, sex, income, region of residence, hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia. We analyzed previous histories of smoking, alcohol consumption, and obesity. By unconditional logistic regression analyses, the crude and adjusted odds ratios (ORs) were investigated and the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were counted. Results. The estimated annual incidence of the benign parotid tumors was 5.66 per 100,000, and that of the malignant parotid tumor was 0.81 per 100,000. The adjusted ORs of smoking for the benign parotid tumors was 2.52 (95% CI, 1.84 to 3.46). This finding was consistent in the subgroups of

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the risk of sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) in Herpes zoster patients from a representative population cohort. Design: A longitudinal follow-up study Study sample: Data were obtained from the Korean National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort for the period from 2002 to 2013. We matched 61,702 subjects in the Herpes zoster group with subjects in a control group (246,808 subjects with no history of Herpes zoster) based on demographic factors (age, sex, income, and region of residence) and medical history (diabetes, dyslipidemia, and hypertension). The crude (simple) and adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for Herpes zoster with SSNHL were analysed using the Cox-proportional hazard model. Results: Only 0.5% (338/61,364) of the Herpes zoster group and 0.7% (1664/245,144) of the control group showed SSNHL. The Herpes zoster group did not exhibit a higher rate of SSNHL (adjusted HR = 0.81, 95% CI = 0.72–0.91, p Conclusions: After adjusting for confounding factors, the risk of SSNHL did not increase in the Herpes zoster group compared with the control group.
