Gao X, Zhao S, Wang S, Sun Y, Gao C. Influence of periodontal status on patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: A retrospective analysis. Heliyon 2024; 10:e30998. [PMID: 38778978 PMCID: PMC11108988 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e30998] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2023] [Revised: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective This retrospective analysis aimed to evaluate the prevalence of periodontitis in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and investigate the effects of various periodontal statuses and risk factors on oral infection incidence. Study design Medical records of patients pre- and post-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from June 2019 to October 2021were reviewed. The study examined the effort of different periodontal statuses on oral complications and infections in patients during transplantation. Results Of 549 transplant patients studied, 363 had periodontitis. Patients with or without periodontitis showed significant differences in mean age, male proportion, and mucositis incidence during transplantation (P < 0.05). Bacteremia rates were slightly higher in patients with periodontitis, but not significant. Male proportion, age, and hospitalization duration significantly increased with advancing periodontitis stages. Only two patients experienced periodontal complications, that were effectively managed and did not interfere in the grafting process. Conclusion Periodontitis is prevalent in patients with hematopoietic diseases. Despite its association with oral mucositis, the occurrence of periodontal infection remains low and controllable.

Abstract
Periodontal and peri-implant diseases result from a chronic inflammatory response to dysbiotic microbial communities and are characterized by inflammation in the soft tissue and the ensuing progressive destruction of supporting bone, resulting in tooth or implant loss. These diseases' high prevalence, multifactorial etiology, extensive treatment costs, and significant detriment to patients' quality-of-life underscore their status as a critical public health burden. This review delineates the economic and sociocultural ramifications of periodontal and peri-implant diseases on patient welfare and healthcare economics. We delve into the implications of diagnosis, treatment, supportive care, and managing destructive tissue consequences, contrasting these aspects with healthy patients.

Abstract
Objective This study aims to investigate the relationship between oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) and emotional distress (ED), including anxiety and depression, in orthodontic patients. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 603 orthodontic patients, consisting of 401 females (66.5%) with a mean age of 24.15 ± 7.72 and 202 males (33.5%) with a mean age of 24.16 ± 7.72. A questionnaire containing questions of demographic information, the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) and the Huaxi emotional-distress index (HEI) was employed to assess OHRQoL and ED. According to the HEI score, the respondents were divided into ED group (HEI > 8) and non-ED group (HEI ≤ 8). Data were analyzed using Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Mann-Whitney test and logistic regression analysis with the significance level set at p < 0.05. Results The prevalence of poor OHRQoL and ED of the study sample was 28.4% and 19.57%, respectively. There was a significantly higher prevalence of ED among poor OHRQoL patients (35.67%) compared to those with good OHRQoL (13.19%) (p < 0.001). Poor OHRQoL and risky drinking behavior addressed higher significant correlation with ED patients than non-ED patients (p < 0.05). There were no statistical differences in other factors such as gender, age, and appliance type (p > 0.05). Poor OHRQoL orthodontic patients were at a higher risk of suffering from anxiety and depression compared to those with good OHRQoL (age-risky drinking behavior-sex-adjusted: OR = 4.00; all p < 0.001). Conclusion Oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) is related to emotional stress. Namely, patients with poor OHRQoL are more likely to experience anxiety and depression. As a result, orthodontists should consistently assess the emotional well-being and OHROoL of patients over the treatment course for better treatment outcomes.

Clin Oral Investig 2023; 27:2851-2864. [PMID: 36723714 PMCID: PMC10264521 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-023-04876-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2022] [Accepted: 01/22/2023] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the oral health-related quality of life (oHRQoL) and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) after 10 years of supportive periodontal care (SPC). MATERIAL AND METHODS Patients were re-examined 120±12 months after active periodontal therapy. Dental and periodontal status and oHRQoL by completing Oral Health Impact Profile-G49 (OHIP-G49) and PROMs by marking a visual analogue scale (VAS) for self-perceived esthetics (VASe), chewing function (VASc), and hygiene ability (VASh) were assessed. Patient- and tooth-related factors (age, insurance status, number of SPC, compliance, change of therapist, smoking, tooth loss, need for surgery or antibiotic intake, bleeding on probing (BOP), periodontal inflamed surface area) influencing oHRQoL and PROMs were evaluated. RESULTS One hundred eight periodontally compromised patients (59 female, mean age 65.4±10.7 years) lost 135 teeth during 10 years of SPC. At re-examination, 1.8% of all sites showed PPD ≥6mm. The mean OHIP-G49 sum score was 17.6±18.5, and VAS resulted in 76.0±22.5 (VASe), 86.3±16.3 (VASc), and 79.8±15.8 (VASh). Linear regression analyses identified a positive correlation with oHRQoL and/or PROMs for private insurance status (OHIP-G49, p=0.015, R2=0.204; VASc, p=0.005, R2=0.084; VASh, p=0.012, R2=0.222) and compliance to SPC (VASe, p=0.032; R2=0.204), as well as a negative correlation for active smoking (VASc, p=0.012, R2=0.084), increased BOP (VASh, p=0.029, R2=0.222) at the start of SPC, and number of lost molars (VASh, p=0.008, R2=0.222). CONCLUSION It is realistic to obtain satisfactory oHRQoL and PROM values in most of the patients after 10 years of SPC. The identified factors may help to predict patient satisfaction in the long-term course of therapy. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Systematic therapy of periodontally compromised patients provides values for oHRQoL and PROMs in a favorable range 10 years after therapy. This should encourage dentists to implement SPC in their daily routine. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER NCT03048045.

Abstract
We aimed to assess the quality of life for head and neck carcinoma (HNC) patients who underwent soft tissue resection and reconstruction with double-paddle peroneal artery perforator (DPAP) free flap. The quality of life was assessed by means of the University of Washington quality of life (UW-QOL) and the 14-item Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) questionnaires at 12 months postoperatively. Data from 57 patients were retrospectively analysed. Out of these, 51 patients were at TNM stage III or IV. Finally, 48 patients finished and returned the two questionnaires. In the UW-QOL questionnaire, the mean (SD) higher scores were pain 76.5 (6.4), shoulder 74.3 (9.6), and activity 71.6 (6.1), whereas the lower scores were chewing 49.7 (5.2), taste 51.1 (7.7), and saliva (56.7 (7.4). In the OHIP-14 questionnaire, the higher-scoring domains were psychological discomfort (69.3 (9.6) and psychological disability 65.2 (5.8), whereas the lower-scoring domains were handicap 28.7 (4.3) and physical pain 30.4 (8.1). The DPAP free flap significantly improved appearance, activity, shoulder, mood, psychological discomfort, and handicap compared with pedicled pectoralis major myocutaneous flap reconstruction. In conclusion, DPAP free flap for reconstruction of tissue defects after soft tissue resection of HNC significantly improved the patients' QOL compared to pedicled pectoralis major myocutaneous flap reconstruction.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the association between 11 oral conditions and oral health related quality of life (OHRQoL). MATERIALS AND METHODS This cross-sectional study used a multistage sampling strategy to draw a representative sample of adults aged ≥35 years living in Porto Alegre, Brazil. OHRQoL was assessed using OHIP-14. Oral examinations were conducted to assess gingivitis, dental calculus, tooth loss, gingival recession (GR), dentine hypersensitivity (DHS), dental caries (DFT), dental erosion, and non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL). Questionnaires recorded the following self-reported oral variables: xerostomia, halitosis, and perceived need for dental treatment. Structural Equation Models were used to assess the associations adjusting to demographic and behavioral variables. RESULTS 1022 individuals were analyzed. The overall OHIP mean equaled 9.2 ± 9.7 points. Xerostomia [coefficient (coef)=0.10], halitosis (coef=0.28), DFT (coef=0.16), and DHS (coef=0.19) were significantly and directly associated with negative impacts of OHIP-14. GR was significantly and indirectly associated with poor OHRQoL due to higher DHS. Perceived need for dental treatment was significantly and directly associated with higher OHIP-14 (coef=0,40). CONCLUSIONS Poor OHRQoL was observed in a sample of Brazilian adults and old people. Five important oral conditions were associated to poor OHRQoL. Tooth loss, gingivitis, calculus, dental erosion and NCCL did not associate with OHRQoL. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Poorer oral health related quality of life is observed in a Brazilian urban area compared to other parts of the world. Xerostomia, halitosis, dental caries, gingival recession, and dentine hypersensitivity may be targeted to improve oral health and consequently oral health related quality of life.

Abstract
AIM The aim of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of periodontitis in dentate people between 2011 and 2020. MATERIALS AND METHODS PUBMED, Web of Science, and LILACS were searched up to and including December 2021. Epidemiological studies reporting the prevalence of periodontitis conducted between 2011 and 2020 were eligible for inclusion in this review. Studies were grouped according to the case definition of confidence as confident (Centers for Disease Control [CDC] AAP 2012; CDC/AAP 2007; and Armitage 1999) and non-confident (community periodontal index of 3 or 4, periodontal pocket depth >4 mm, and clinical attachment level ≥1 mm). Random effects meta-analyses with double arcsine transformation were conducted. Sensitivity subgroup and meta-regression analyses explored the effect of confounding variables on the overall estimates. RESULTS A total 55 studies were included. The results showed a significant difference, with confident case definitions (61.6%) reporting nearly twice the prevalence as non-confident classifications (38.5%). Estimates using confident periodontal case definitions showed a pooled prevalence of periodontitis of 61.6%, comprising 17 different countries. Estimates reporting using the CDC/AAP 2012 case definition presented the highest estimate (68.1%) and the CDC/AAP 2007 presented the lowest (48.8%). Age was a relevant confounding variable, as older participants (≥65 years) had the highest pooled estimate (79.3%). CONCLUSION Between 2011 and 2020, periodontitis in dentate adults was estimated to be around 62% and severe periodontitis 23.6%. These results show an unusually high prevalence of periodontitis compared to the previous estimates from 1990 to 2010.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Since oral conditions negatively affect oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL), this study evaluated which oral clinical condition, signs, and symptoms are associated with the impact on OHRQoL, its domains, and specific daily life activities among adults. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data from a probabilistic sample of adults (35-44 years old) was used. The Oral Impacts on Daily Performance (OIDP) was used to evaluate OHRQoL, its domains (physical, psychological, and social), and nine daily life activities. Signs and symptoms of oral diseases (dental caries, periodontal disease, need for dental prothesis, and tooth loss) and oral self-perception were considered. Descriptive, bivariate, and multi-level analyses were conducted. RESULTS A total of 5,834 adults were included, of which 52.9% had some negative impact of oral conditions on OHRQoL. Difficulty in eating was the most affected daily life activity. For multiple models, dental caries lesions (cavities), filled teeth with caries, gingival bleeding, periodontal pocket, dental pain, need for upper or lower dental prosthesis, and oral health self-perception were associated (p < 0.05) with overall OHRQoL or at least one of its domains. The impact on daily life activities of each individual was associated with at least one oral condition. Dental caries lesions (cavity) and dental pain were associated (p < 0.05) with the impact on most daily life activities evaluated. CONCLUSIONS Different signs and symptoms of prevalent oral diseases are associated with the impact on specific daily life activities among adults, which may compromise the OHRQoL. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Knowledge of how signs, symptoms, and oral conditions affect OHRQoL and daily life activities can provide essential information for clinicians to establish proper disease management and preventive strategies focusing on improving patients' lives.

Abstract
This study explored the relationship between depression, anxiety, stress, morbidity, and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in the migrant elderly following children (MEFC) in Weifang, China. A total of 613 MEFC were selected using multistage cluster random sampling. The GOHAI scale was used to evaluate oral health-related quality of life. The DASS-21 scale was used to assess levels of depression, anxiety, and stress. Univariate analysis and binary logistic regression were used to analyze the correlation between these indicators and oral health-related quality of life, of which 43.9% were classified as having poor oral health. Logistic regression analysis showed that the MEFC who were of older age (OR = 0.965, p = 0.039), with hypertension (OR = 0.567, p = 0.004), with gastroenteropathy (OR = 0.263, p = 0.007), had received an outpatient service in the past year (OR = 0.669, p = 0.048), were depressed (OR = 0.338, p = 0.012), and anxious (OR = 0.414, p = 0.026) were less likely to report good oral health status. On the other hand, the MEFC with a high school education or above (OR = 1.872, p = 0.020) were more likely to report good oral health than those with primary school education and below. In conclusion, with regard to depression, anxiety, and stress: the results indicated that the fewer morbidities, the lower the level of depression and anxiety and the better the OHRQoL of MEFC. Targeted measures for government, communities, and family members were given to improve the OHRQoL of MEFC.

Abstract
Objective To study the preventive effect of Lactobacillus helveticus (L. helveticus) on periodontitis induced by Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (A. actinomycetemcomitans) in rats. Methods Eighteen 8-week-old female rats were randomly divided into three groups: Sham group, Trehalose group, and L. helveticus SBT2171 (LH2171) group. We measured the distance of the cementoenamel junction-alveolar bone crest (CEJ-ABC) to evaluate alveolar bone resorption. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the histopathological changes of rat hemimaxillary tissues. We detected the expression of β-defensins, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin- (IL-) 1β, and IL-6 and the number of A. actinomycetemcomitans in rat gingival tissues by quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. The levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in rat gingival tissues were also measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results Compared with the Trehalose group, the distance of CEJ-ABC was prominently reduced and alveolar bone resorption was notably improved in the LH2171 group. And the infiltration of inflammatory cells in the hemimaxillary tissue decreased obviously, periodontal fibers were arranged neatly, connective tissue small blood vessels proliferated, and the number of A. actinomycetemcomitans reduced significantly in the LH2171 group. In addition, the mRNA expression and release of inflammatory factors in the gingival tissues in the LH2171 group were notably lower than those in the Trehalose group. On the 21st and 36th day, the expression of β-defensins in the gingival tissue of the LH2171 group increased significantly. Conclusion L. helveticus improves alveolar bone resorption and increases the expression of β-defensins thereby inhibiting the number of A. actinomycetemcomitans and thus prevents periodontitis.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Quality of Life of Type II Diabetes Patients With Periodontitis. FRONTIERS IN ORAL HEALTH 2022; 2:682219. [PMID: 35048027 PMCID: PMC8757750 DOI: 10.3389/froh.2021.682219] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2021] [Accepted: 05/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Confinement due to the COVID-19 pandemic has made dental treatments impossible in Chile and many other countries, including diabetic patients with periodontitis. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the impact of periodontal therapy in terms of oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) during the COVID-19 pandemic in a cohort of diabetic patients with periodontitis. Material and Methods: Thirty-eight diabetic patients with stage III-IV periodontitis, enrolled for periodontal therapy, were screened. Periodontal clinical parameters including clinical attachment loss (CAL), probing pocket depth (PPD) and bleeding on probing (BOP) as well as glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were evaluated at baseline and 3 months follow-up prior the pandemic. The OHRQoL changes by means of Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) and a self-reported oral health questionnaire were assessed at baseline (prior pandemic) and during the pandemic via telemonitoring. Results: Thirty-one patients received non-surgical periodontal therapy prior to the pandemic. Out of the 31 patients, four died due to COVID-19 resulting in 27 patients available for telemonitoring at the time of the pandemic. Periodontal therapy significantly improved CAL, PPD and BOP (p < 0.05) but not HbA1c (p > 0.05) between baseline and 3 months follow-up pior to the pandemic. Total OHIP-14 scores significantly improved between baseline and the middle of pandemic (intragroup comparison p = 0.00411). In particular, OHIP-14 scores related to the "Physical pain" (intragroup comparison p = 0.04) and "Psychological disability" (intragroup comparison p = 0.00) significantly improved between baseline and the middle of pandemic. Conclusions: In diabetic type II patients with periodontitis periodontal therapy tends to improve the oral health-related quality of life despite the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to investigate the impact of stage-grade of periodontitis and self-reported signs and symptoms on oral health-related quality of life. METHODS The diagnosis of periodontitis was based on the 2017 World Workshop on the Classification of Periodontal and Peri-Implant Diseases and Conditions. The Turkish version of Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) was used to assess oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) and the participants were requested to state their symptoms associated with periodontal diseases. RESULTS One hundred and sixty-six patients were included in the study with a mean age of 46.54 ± 9.24 years. The participants with Stage IV and Grade C periodontitis had the highest total OHIP-14 scores (median 20.00 [min.-max, 3.00-35.00] and median 18.50 (min.-max, 0.00-36.00]; respectively). The OHIP-14 scores (mean ± SD) were significantly associated with the symptoms of bleeding gums (13.64 ± 9.39), sore gums (18.00 ± 10.47), swollen gums (17.42 ± 10.91), bad breath (15.82 ± 9.44), loose teeth (20.00 ± 8.66) and drifting teeth (24.56 ± 8.46). CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates a significant association between OHRQoL and periodontitis. Stage-grade of periodontitis and its symptoms were associated with poor quality of life.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to monitor the recovery of somatosensory function and oral health-related quality of life after tongue reconstruction using a non-innervated radial forearm free flap (RFFF). METHODS Twenty patients (9 men, age: 42-67 years) underwent tongue reconstruction with non-innervated RFFFs, and twenty age- and sex-matched controls were included in this study. Quantitative sensory testing (QST), including cold, warm, and mechanical detection thresholds (CDT, WDT, MDT); cold, heat, and mechanical pain thresholds (CPT, HPT, MPT); and static two-point, sharp/blunt, and direction discrimination (S2-PD, S/BD, DD) were determined 9 months and 18 months after surgery on the surgical (9 M, 18 M) and contralateral sides (9Mc, 18Mc). Oral Health Impact Profile-49 (OHIP-49) was used to determine the oral-related quality of life of participants. RESULTS All parameters showed significantly lower sensitivity at 9 M and 18 M (p < 0.001) compared to those for the controls and the contralateral side, except for DD (p = 0.101). In addition, the parameters showed a significant decrease in sensitivity for 9Mc and 18Mc (p ≤ 0.043) compared to those for the controls, except for MPT, HPT, S/SD, and DD (p ≥ 0.453). Findings on WDT, MPT, S2-PD, and DD (p ≤ 0.046) indicated significantly higher somatosensory function at 18 M than that at 9 M. MDT and MPT (p ≤ 0.038) showed significantly higher sensitivity at 18Mc than at 9Mc. Scores for all dimensions of OHIP-49 were significantly higher in patients (decrease in quality of life, p ≤ 0.002) than in controls, except for physical discomfort (p = 0.51). However, the scores were significantly higher at 18 M than at 9 M (p ≤ 0.011), except for handicap (p = 0.36). Postoperative chemotherapy was significantly correlated with impaired thermal sensitivity of the flaps (WDT, p = 0.049). CONCLUSION The present findings showed significant impairment in somatosensory function on both the surgical and contralateral sides of patients with RFFFs. However, a significant increase in somatosensory function was observed on both sides over time. Somatosensory disturbances observed after surgery were associated with poor oral health-related quality of life.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the psychometric properties of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and 10-item Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) in patients with periodontitis and to evaluate the psychological features of patients with periodontitis. METHODS Overall, 460 individuals with periodontitis were enrolled. The HADS and the PSS-10 were administered to all patients. Methodology testing included the exploratory factor analysis, the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), test-retest reliability, as well as internal consistency. RESULTS Regarding the CFA results of the HADS, as well as the PSS-10, a bifactor model fitted the data best. The Cronbach alpha value, as well as the intra-class correlation coefficients value of the two measures were all >0.70. The anxiety, depression, distress manifestations, and moderate-to-high perceived stress prevalence were 35.2%, 18.2%, 24.6%, and 43.9%, respectively. Severity of periodontitis, age, smoking, and disease comorbidities were identified as independent prognosticators of the presence of psychological manifestations in periodontitis. CONCLUSION The HADS and the PSS-10 can be used as general measures for psychological assessment in patients with periodontitis.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to assess the impact of periodontitis (PD) on the health related quality of life (HRQoL) and oral health related QoL (OHRQoL) of subjects with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and PD. Methods Subjects from dental and RA clinics were screened. Complete periodontal examinations were performed. Subjects were divided into 4 groups: RA-PD, RA, PD and healthy controls (HC). Questionnaires on characteristics and Malaysian versions of Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14(M)) and Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ-DI)) were answered. Results A total of 187 subjects were included (29 RA-PD, 58 RA, 43 PD and 57 HC). OHIP-14(M) severity score was highest in the PD group (17.23 ± 10.36) but only significantly higher than the HC group (p < 0.05). The HAQ-DI scores of the RA group was significantly higher than the PD and HC groups (p < 0.05). The interaction between the effects of PD and RA on the OHRQoL and HRQoL was statistically significant (p < 0.05).
Conclusion PD and RA subjects both suffer impacts on their OHRQoL and HRQoL respectively. The interaction effect of both diseases significantly conferred impacts on their OHRQoL and HRQoL as measured by the OHIP-14(M) and HAQ-DI.

Abstract
Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) and associated factors in the elderly. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 287 elderly of Cruz Alta, Brazil. The following variables were collected: age, sex, ethnicity, level of education, marital status, retirement, medical/dental history, smoking/alcohol exposure, oral hygiene habits, use and need of dental prosthesis, missing teeth, temporomandibular disorder symptoms (TMD), nutritional status, and halitosis. OHRQoL was assessed by Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14). The sample was categorized into low impact (sum scores ≤6) and high impact (sum scores ≥7). Associations were analyzed by Poisson regression with robust variation. Mean scores of OHIP-14 was 5.92±8.54. Divorced individuals and those who did not use dental floss presented 77% and 54%, respectively, higher prevalence ratio (PR) of having higher OHRQoL impact. Elderly that did not need dental prosthesis demonstrated a lower impact on OHRQoL (P<0.01). Elderly with TMD presented a higher PR of having higher OHRQoL impact (P<0.01). It was concluded that higher impact on OHRQoL was associated with marital status, non-users of dental floss and those with TMD. No need dental prosthesis were associated with lower impact on OHRQoL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To determine if periodontal risk assessment (PRA), the number of missing teeth, diabetes mellitus (DM), perceived stress and interproximal cleaning are associated with oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL), using Andersen's behavioral modelling (ABM). MATERIAL AND METHODS Data derived from 472 adults derived from a representative population of the Study of Periodontal Health in Almada-Seixal (SoPHiAS) was used. Socioeconomic status, perceived stress scale (PSS-10), oral health behaviors and oral health impact profile (OHIP-14) were collected through questionnaire. Periodontal conditions were assessed with a full-mouth periodontal examination. PRA was computed through behavioral and clinical information. Variables were grouped into Predisposing Factors, Enabling, Need, Oral Health Behaviors and Perceived Health Outcome latent variables. Confirmatory factor analysis, structural ABM and model fitness were conducted. RESULTS ABM applied to OHIP-14 showed acceptable model fit (χ2 = 2.75, CFI = 0.92, TLI = 0.90, RMSEA = 0.05, CI 90% [0.04-0.07]). The average of OHRQoL was 9.5 ± 11.3. Patient with periodontitis and with a high number of missing teeth experienced worse OHRQoL. Uncontrolled DM participants had more periodontal treatment necessity and poorer OHRQoL. Characteristic like aging and lower levels of education were directly associated with better OHRQoL, but in indirect path the OHRQoL was diminishes. Good oral hygiene and preventative measures were associated to lower periodontal treatment necessity. Lower periodontal treatment necessity was associated to higher OHRQoL. Age, tooth loss and interproximal cleaning were the most associated items to Predisposing, Need and Oral Health Behaviors, respectively. CONCLUSION ABM confirmed age, number of missing teeth, DM, interproximal cleaning and perceived stress as associated factors for OHRQoL. Uncontrolled DM was associated to higher Need and poorer OHRQoL. Good oral hygiene habits promote a healthy periodontium and, consequently, increases OHRQoL.

Abstract
AIM Building on previous psychometric work, we aimed to further assess the minimally important difference (MID) of the Oral Health Impact Profile for Chronic Periodontitis (OHIP-CP). METHODS In total, 240 consecutive patients with chronic periodontitis were recruited in the study. The OHIP-CP was completed at baseline and after six weeks. Methodology testing included the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and MID. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was performed to assess the fit of the previously proposed three-factor model. The MID of this questionnaire was determined by applying anchor-based and distribution-based approaches. RESULTS The CFA supported a three-factor model for the OHIP-CP with acceptable fit to the data. The fit indices were χ2 /df = 2.231, GFI = 0.935, TLI = 0.969 and CFI = 0.976, RMSEA = 0.076. The OHIP-CP scores showed significant improvements after treatment (p < .001). The anchor-based MIDs of OHIP-CP for "oral function restriction," "oral pain" and "psychological and social impact," and total score were 2, 1, 4 and 7 points, respectively. The effect sizes (ES) and standardized response mean (SRM) for the OHIP-CP were moderate to large. CONCLUSIONS The MID of the OHIP-CP is recommended for interpreting clinically meaningful change in oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) over time.

Abstract
Patient-based outcomes complement clinical data with patients' self-evaluation of their physical, psychological, and social well-being, and as such facilitate clinical decision-making, assessing the quality of care provided, and evaluating practices and policies. Some validated generic oral health-related quality of life measures used in recent research indicated a high performance. There is a proportional relationship between the quality of life and periodontitis, ie, the higher the level of periodontitis, the poorer the oral health-related quality of life. This relationship is heightened by the presence of symptoms such as bleeding, halitosis, and mobility. On the other hand, periodontal treatment has demonstrated the capability to improve quality of life substantially. Future research should focus on questionnaires that are able to explain the interlinked pathways between periodontal conditions, approaches to treatment approaches, and patients' well-being. The acquisition of new knowledge in the field is essential for the whole community, as we treat people not millimeters.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Oral health affects quality of life. Many studies have investigated the factors associated with oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). Little is known about OHRQoL of adults living in rural and remote areas of India, where many have lower levels of education and limited availability of oral health care services. OBJECTIVES To determine the prevalence, extent, and severity of OHRQoL impacts associated with psychosocial factors, functional dentition, and patterns of dental visits among rural Indian adults between the ages of 35 and 54 y. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted with a multistage stratified sampling strategy targeting 35- to 54-year-olds. Interviews and oral examinations were performed to collect data on sociodemographic variables, Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14), patterns of dental visits, stress, tobacco and alcohol use, and dentition status. Univariate, bivariate, and multivariable analyses were done to determine the factors associated with prevalence, extent, and severity of OHIP-14 using SAS version 9.3. RESULTS There were 873 participants. Prevalence, extent, and severity of OHIP-14 were 13.4%, 0.5 (0.4-0.7), and 11.8 (11.2-12.5), respectively. The OHIP-14 impacts reported were not severe and mostly affected physical functioning. Levels of education, income, and number of functional teeth (FT) were inversely associated and last dental visit within the previous year was positively associated with prevalence, extent, and severity of OHIP-14. The prevalence of 1 or more oral health impacts was nearly 13% among rural middle-aged adults in India. CONCLUSIONS Low socioeconomic conditions, dental visits, and FT ≤19 were positively associated with prevalence, extent, and severity of oral health impacts. KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER STATEMENT This article provides data regarding OHRQoL of people in rural areas of a developing country. The study was intended to determine the factors associated with OHRQoL in rural people who are less educated and living in areas with minimal oral health care facilities. The findings of this study could potentially facilitate further research and health promotional activities for rural people of developing countries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess the prevalence of concern with oral health and associated factors among older adults. METHODS: Individuals aged ≥60 years were included from the cities Cruz Alta and Veranópolis, Brazil. Oral health examination and a structured questionnaire were applied in 569 individuals. The main outcome was concern with oral health (yes or no), which was determined by a validated questionnaire. Uni- and multivariate analyses were conducted by Poisson regression with robust variance to assess the association between outcome and independent variables. RESULTS: The prevalence of concern with oral health was 30.58% (n = 174). Non-white individuals presented significantly higher prevalence ratio (PR) of being concerned about their oral health (PR = 1.28; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01–1.62). Individuals with medium or high level of education, not retired and without any health problems presented higher PR of being concerned with their oral health when compared to their controls (p < 0.05). Moreover, those that reported toothbrushing frequency ≥ 2 times/day (PR = 1.58; 95%CI 1.01 – 2.48) and non-edentulous (PR = 1.50; 95%CI 1.12 –2.01) also presented higher PR of being concern with their oral health. Older adults that were not concerned with tooth alignment (PR = 0.57; 95%CI 0.44 – 0.74) or tooth color (PR = 0.41; 95%CI 0.31 – 0.54) demonstrated lower concern with their oral health. CONCLUSION: Prevalence of concern with oral health among the older adults was low and associated with non-white individuals, medium and high level of education, individuals not retired, absence of health problems, higher toothbrushing frequency, mild temporomandibular disorder (TMD) and non-edentulism. Additionally, concern with esthetical aspects may be related with this outcome.

Abstract
While clinical indicators, or so-called surrogate outcomes in periodontology, allow us to assess periodontal health and evaluate outcomes of periodontal therapy from a clinician's perspective, they cannot be used to evaluate patients' subjective perceptions of their health status or satisfaction with the received treatment. These can be assessed through patient-based outcomes, such as quality of life. The aim of this paper is to give an overview of the multidimensional concept of oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL), its measures and association with plaque-induced, inflammatory periodontal diseases. Periodontitis and its clinical consequences, such as tooth loss, have a considerable negative effect on OHRQoL, while periodontal treatment and alleviation of the symptoms can lead to improvement in OHRQoL. Implant rehabilitation of missing teeth also seems to positively influence OHRQoL.

Potassium dihydrogen phosphate promotes the proliferation and differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells via nuclear factor kappa B pathway. Exp Cell Res 2019; 384:111593. [PMID: 31487508 DOI: 10.1016/j.yexcr.2019.111593] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2019] [Revised: 08/28/2019] [Accepted: 08/31/2019] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) are vital for the regeneration of periodontal tissues. Potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KH2PO4) has recently been applied as a component of the mineralization inducing medium (MM), which can be used to induce osteogenic differentiation of dental stem cells. However, whether KH2PO4 has effects on PDLSCs has not been studied. MATERIALS AND METHODS PDLSCs were isolated by magnetic activated cell sorting and cultured. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and ALP protein expression of PDLSCs treated with different concentrations of KH2PO4 were examined to make sure the optimal concentration of KH2PO4 for the following experiments. The effects of KH2PO4 on the proliferation and differentiation of PDLSCs were investigated by flow cytometry, cell counting kit-8 assay, alizarin red staining, real-time RT-PCR, and Western blot. The involvement of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathway in KH2PO4-treated PDLSCs was analyzed by Western blot and alizarin red staining. RESULTS ALP activity assay and ALP protein expression examination revealed that 1.8 mmol/L KH2PO4 was the optimal concentration for the induction of hPDLSCs by KH2PO4. The proliferation and mineralization capacity of PDLSCs treated with KH2PO4 were enhanced as compared with the control group. PDLSCs treated with KH2PO4 showed an improved proliferation capacity in logarithmic growth phase at day 7. As PDLSCs were treated with KH2PO4, the expression of odonto/osteogenic markers (OCN/OCN, DSP/DSPP, OSX/OSX, RUNX2/RUNX2, and ALP/ALP) in cells were up-regulated at day 3 or 7. Moreover, the expression of IκBα in cytoplasm was down-regulated, along with an increased expression of p-P65 in cytoplasm and an up-regulated expression of P65 in nucleus. When treated with BMS345541 (the specific NF-κB inhibitor), the odonto/osteogenic differentiation of KH2PO4-treated PDLSCs was significantly attenuated. CONCLUSION KH2PO4 can improve the proliferation and odonto/osteogenic differentiation capacity of PDLSCs via NF-κB pathway, and thus represents a potential target involved in the regeneration of periodontium for clinical treatments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Visfatin is an adipokine and has a crucial role in pro-inflammatory response. The aim of this study was investigating the visfatin levels of gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and chronic periodontitis and healthy subjects. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty non-obese females were selected based on their clinical parameters into four groups: 15 healthy subjects (H-H), 15 systemically healthy individuals with chronic periodontitis (H-CP), 15 SLE patient with CP (SLE-CP), and 15 SLE patients without CP (SLE-H). GCF samples were collected to estimate the levels of visfatin using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS Investigating the amount of visfatin in the GCF showed that there is a significant difference between visfatin amount of GCF in SLE patients and chronic periodontitis (L-CP) in comparison with other groups (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Visfatin levels have correlated positively with all the clinical periodontal parameters and its levels in (L-CP) group are highest in comparative with other groups. This finding suggests visfatin has a possible role in association between these two inflammatory conditions. Key Point • Visfatin in systemic lupus erythematosus.
