Association between Hyperglycemia and Medication-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (MRONJ). J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12082976. [PMID: 37109314 PMCID: PMC10144577 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12082976] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Revised: 04/12/2023] [Accepted: 04/18/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a type of jawbone necrosis caused by the use of drugs for some types of cancer and osteoporosis. The current study aimed to evaluate the associations between hyperglycemia and the development of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw. METHODS Our research group investigated data collected between 1 January 2019 and 31 December 2020. A total of 260 patients were selected from the Inpatient Care Unit, Department of Oromaxillofacial Surgery and Stomatology, Semmelweis University. Fasting glucose data were used and included in the study. RESULTS Approximately 40% of the necrosis group and 21% of the control group presented with hyperglycemia. There was a significant association between hyperglycemia and MRONJ (p < 0.05, p = 0.003). Vascular anomaly and immune dysfunction caused by hyperglycemia can lead to necrosis after tooth extraction. Necrosis is more common in the mandible (75.0%) and in the case of parenteral antiresorptive treatment (intravenous Zoledronate and subcutaneous Denosumab). Hyperglycemia is a more relevant risk factor than bad oral habits (26.7%). CONCLUSIONS Ischemia is a complication of abnormal glucose levels, a possible risk factor for necrosis development. Hence, uncontrolled or poorly regulated plasma glucose levels can significantly increase the risk of jawbone necrosis after invasive dental or oral surgical interventions.

Hristamyan M, Raycheva R, Hristamyan V. Smoking and alcohol consumption as risk factors in 112 oncology patients diagnosed with bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of the jaw. ACTA STOMATOLOGICA NAISSI 2021.

Abstract
Background: Bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of the jaws (BAONJ) is a complication of great medical importance. Some of the most discussed and controversial aspects are the risk factors, some of which are related to patients' smoking and alcohol consumption. The Aim: To study cancer patients with BAONJ and determine their participation in the mentioned above risky health-related habits. Material and methods: A prospective epidemiological study of 112 patients diagnosed with bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of the jaw in 2016 and 2017 was conducted at the Clinic of Maxillofacial surgery of University hospital "St. George", Plovdiv, Bulgaria, based on anamnesis, clinical examination, and hospital documentation. SPSS Statistics v.24 was used for statistical analysis, at a significance level p<0.05. Results: Over 2/3 of the patients were smokers (40.18%) or ex-smokers (25.00%), which linked them with the risk factor of smoking. At the time of the study, patients smoking between 1 and 9 and between 10 and 19 cigarettes a day had equal relative shares of 44.22%. More than half of the patients smoked from the age of 20-39, which we explain by the high average age. The majority of patients studied consumed alcohol, most often once a week or on weekends (28.57%) or only on occasions (26.79%), followed by 24.11% who used alcohol several times per week. Nearly 2/3 drink drinks with both low and high alcohol content. Conclusion: The highest proportion of patients are smokers / ex-smokers and consume alcoholic beverages occasionally, which links them to these risk potential factors.
