Swallowing function was evaluated using the Eating Assessment Tool-10 (EAT-10) questionnaire. Residents were categorized into two groups: those with reduced swallowing function (EAT-10 score\u2009\u2265\u20093) and those with normal swallowing function (EAT-10 score\u2009&lt;\u20093). The association between medication use and swallowing function was analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression models.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Significant differences were observed between the reduced (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009101, 36.9%) and normal swallowing function (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009173, 63.1%) groups in terms of age (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.022), body mass index (BMI) (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001), and nursing care level (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001). Propensity score matching was performed to adjust for confounding factors, yielding 72 matched pairs. Analysis of the matched cohort revealed a significant association between antipsychotic use and reduced swallowing function (odds ratio [OR], 2.600; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.210\u20135.560; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.014).<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>This study identified a significant association between antipsychotic drug use and reduced swallowing function.
