Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the bidirectional association between oral diseases and cognitive function comprehensively. SUBJECTS AND METHODS This cross sectional study utilized data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Oral diseases include periodontitis, dental caries, and tooth loss (end point of oral disease resulting in tooth extraction). Cognitive function included three domains: memory, processing speed, and executive function. A global cognitive score was then derived from sum of the three cognitive domains. Oral cognition associations were examined using various statistical models: (1) Regress oral disease on cognitive function; (2) Regress cognitive function on oral disease; and (3) Structural equation modelling treating cognition and oral disease as latent variables. RESULTS There were 2508 participants aged 60+ who had both oral and cognitive information. Associations between various oral disease and global cognitive score were observed (Odds ratio ORcog->periodontitis 0.95, 95% Confidence Interval [0.92, 0.99]; βcog->caries -0.13, [-0.23, -0.04]; βcog->tooth loss -0.03 [-0.04, -0.01]; βtooth loss->cog -0.04 [-0.06, -0.02]; βcaries->cog -0.03 [-0.06, -0.01]; βperiodontitis->cog -0.39 [-0.69, -0.10]). Significant correlation was also found between these oral disease and cognitive function using structural equation model (r -0.22, [-0.34, -0.10]). CONCLUSIONS This study found robust bidirectional associations between oral disease and cognitive function using various modelling approaches among the aging population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between tooth loss and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality requires further investigation. METHODS This study included 17993 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) 1999-2004 and 2009-2014. Weighted multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the association between tooth loss and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Restricted cubic splines (RCS) were incorporated in the models to explore potential nonlinear relationships. RESULTS Over a median follow-up of 116 months, 2152 participants died, including 625 cardiovascular deaths. Compared to participants without missing teeth, participants with 11-19 missing teeth had the highest risk of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio [HR] 1.89, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.43-2.51), while participants with 6-10 missing teeth had the highest risk of cardiovascular mortality (HR 2.51, 95% CI 1.68-3.76). RCS analyses revealed nonlinear associations between number of missing teeth and all-cause (p < 0.001) and cardiovascular (p = 0.001) mortality. With < 10 missing teeth, each additional missing tooth increased all-cause and cardiovascular mortality by 6% (HR 1.06, 95% CI 1.03-1.09) and 9% (HR 1.09, 95% CI 1.03-1.15), respectively. However, when the number of missing teeth was ≥10, the risk of mortality did not continue to increase with more missing teeth. A significant interaction was found between tooth loss and age (p < 0.001 for both outcomes). CONCLUSION We observed an inverted L-shaped association between tooth loss and mortality, wherein risks increased with more missing teeth until 10, but did not continue increasing thereafter. The association was stronger in adults < 65 years old.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Future primary prevention strategies may benefit from understanding the connection between mortality in individuals with central obesity and modifiable lifestyle factors like dietary intake. This study sought to determine whether there was a separate relationship between folate, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12 intake and all-cause and cause-specific mortality in the US population with central obesity. METHODS The study analyzed data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey between 1999 and 2016. Using the Cox proportional hazards model, the association between dietary intake of B vitamins and all-cause and cause-specific mortality was examined. A total of 7718 adults with central obesity were enrolled, with a mean age of 49.87 (SD = 0.25) y at baseline. RESULTS Folate intake was independently associated with a decreased incidence of all-cause mortality (adjusted hazard ratio = 0.71; 95% CI, 0.58-0.87). Furthermore, higher intake of vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 was inversely correlated with cardiovascular disease mortality (adjusted hazard ratio = 0.63; 95% CI, 0.40-0.98; and adjusted hazard ratio = 0.44; 95% CI, 0.29-0.65, respectively) and the finding reveal an interaction between homocysteine and vitamin B12 and folate on All-cause mortality CONCLUSIONS: The findings of this study suggest that vitamin B12 and folate intake may be protective factors in individuals with central obesity. It is important to consider both their total homocysteine level and body mass index in conjunction with these nutrients. Further research is needed to validate these findings.

Abstract
Oral health is essential for nutritional status; however, little is known about its association with weight change. This study aimed to investigate whether the risk of weight change differs according to the presence of each important component of oral hypofunction (fewer remaining teeth, low chewing efficiency, swallowing problems, and xerostomia) among independent older adults. This was a three-year follow-up cohort study based on self-reported questionnaires. The participants were independent older adults aged ≥65 from the Japan Gerontological Evaluation Study (JAGES). We used >5% weight loss/gain during follow-up as the outcome variables, and the number of remaining teeth (≥20/10-19/0-9), the presence of chewing difficulty, swallowing problems, and xerostomia (yes/no) as the exposure variables. We fitted the Poisson regression model, including possible confounders to estimate the risk ratios (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). For weight loss, RRs were significantly higher among those with 0-9 remaining teeth (RR = 1.17; 95% CI = 1.11-1.23), chewing difficulty (RR = 1.12; 95% CI = 1.07-1.16), and xerostomia (RR = 1.11; 95% CI = 1.06-1.16), but there was no significant association with swallowing problems (RR = 1.01; 95% CI = 0.97-1.06). For weight gain, we also found similar associations with oral hypofunction. Oral hypofunction among older adults could have non-negligible health impacts on nutritional status.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this review is to examine and quantify the long-term risk of immune-mediated systemic conditions in people with periodontitis compared to people without periodontitis. METHODS Medline, EMBASE and Cochrane databases were searched up to June 2022 using keywords and MeSH headings. The 'Risk of Bias in Non-Randomised Studies of Interventions' tool was used to assess bias. Cohort studies comparing incident metabolic/autoimmune/inflammatory diseases in periodontitis to healthy controls were included. Meta-analysis and meta-regression quantified risks and showed impact of periodontitis diagnosis type and severity. RESULTS The search retrieved 3354 studies; 166 studies were eligible for full-text screening, and 30 studies were included for review. Twenty-seven studies were eligible for meta-analysis. The risks of diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoporosis were increased in people with periodontitis compared to without periodontitis (diabetes-relative risk [RR]: 1.22, 95% CI: 1.13-1.33; RA-RR: 1.27, 95% CI: 1.07-1.52; osteoporosis-RR: 1.40, 95% CI: 1.12-1.75). Risk of diabetes showed gradient increase by periodontitis severity (moderate-RR = 1.20, 95% CI = 1.11-1.31; severe-RR = 1.34, 95% CI = 1.10-1.63). CONCLUSION People with moderate-to-severe cases of periodontitis have the highest risk of developing diabetes, while the effect of periodontal severity on risk of other immune-mediated systemic conditions requires further investigation. More homologous evidence is required to form robust conclusions regarding periodontitis-multimorbidity associations.

BMC Oral Health 2023; 23:439. [PMID: 37393272 PMCID: PMC10315020 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-023-03133-5] [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: 03/23/2023] [Accepted: 06/14/2023] [Indexed: 07/03/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidemiological studies support an association between obesity, metabolic syndrome (MetS), and periodontitis. Still, understanding of the effects of low-grade inflammation in obese subjects on periodontitis and influence of MetS remains incomplete. The aims of this cross-sectional study were to explore the association between obesity related variables and periodontitis, and assess if MetS is a risk indicator for periodontitis in a sample of obese adults. METHODS The study sample comprised 52 adults with a body mass index (BMI) of ≥ 30 kg/m2 referred for obesity therapy at the Obesity Centre at Haukeland University Hospital (HUH), Bergen, Norway. The subjects had prior to enrolment completed a 5-month lifestyle intervention course as part of a 2-year managing program. According to the revised National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP ATP III) classification of MetS, 38 subjects were recruited to the MetS group and 14 subjects to the non-MetS group. Medical data including peripheral blood samples were obtained from records at HUH at the time of enrolment. Probing depth, clinical attachment level, tooth mobility, furcation involvement, bleeding on probing (BoP) were recorded and intraoral bitewings evaluated at a full-mouth periodontal examination. Associations between risk variables for obesity/MetS and periodontitis were explored using linear and logistic regression models. RESULTS In the present sample 79% of the subjects were diagnosed with periodontitis. The prevalence of stage III/IV periodontitis was 42.9% in the non-MetS group vs. 36.8% in the MetS group (p = 0.200). In the non-MetS group 29.8% of the sites displayed BoP vs. 23.5% in the MetS group (p = 0.048). For stage III/IV periodontitis, the effect of age appeared to be significant for obesity related variables and MetS (p = 0.006, p = 0.002, respectively). None of the other analyses showed significant association with the outcome variables. CONCLUSION In the present sample of obese subjects, periodontitis occurred independently of MetS. Reaching a certain BMI level, suggested association between MetS and periodontitis might be non-significant due to the dominating impact of obesity related variables undermining the effect of other systemic factors. TRIAL REGISTRATION The principal clinical trial, entitled "Obesity and Oral Diseases", was prospectively registered in ClinicalTrials.gov with registration NCT04602572 (20.10.2020).

Masticaticatory muscles characteristics in relation to adiposity and general muscular fitness: a population-based study. Odontology 2023:10.1007/s10266-023-00785-1.

Abstract
There is still considerable controversy surrounding the impact of mastication on obesity. The aim of this study was to identify the interplay between the masticatory muscles, teeth, and general muscular fitness and how they contribute to body adiposity in a general German population. This cross-sectional study included 616 participants (300 male, 316 female, age 31-93 years) from the population-based Study of Health in Pomerania. The cross-sectional areas of the masseter, medial and lateral pterygoid muscles were measured using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), muscular fitness assessed by hand grip strength (HGS) and body fat distribution was measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and MRI. The overall prevalence of obesity was high in our cohort. The cross-sectional area of the masseter muscles was positively associated with the number of teeth, body mass index (BMI) and HGS, and negatively associated with the BIA-assessed body fat when adjusted for age, sex, teeth, and BMI. Especially the correlation was strong (p < 0.001). Analogous relationships were observed between the masseter, HGS and MRI-assessed subcutaneous fat. These associations were most pronounced with masseter, but also significant with both pterygoid muscles. Though the masticatory muscles were affected by the number of teeth, teeth had no impact on the relations between masseter muscle and adiposity. Physical fitness and masticatory performance are associated with body shape, controlled and directed by the relevant muscles.

Abstract
Background Whether there is an association between TFAs and periodontitis is unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between moderate/severe periodontitis and plasma level of elaidic acid, a major trans-fatty acid component, in American adults. Methods The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) years 2009-2010 were used to screen a total of 1,610 people. The independent variable of interest is plasma elaidic acid level, the dependent variable is periodontitis, and the covariates include socio-demographic variables, lifestyle variables, systemic diseases, etc. The distribution of variables in the covariate differences between the different independent groups according to tertile was investigated using a multiple linear regression model. To examine the association between plasma elaidic acid levels and moderate/severe periodontitis, three models were used. Results Multiple logistic regression analysis showed a significant association between plasma elaidic acid level and moderate/severe periodontitis after adjustment for potential confounders (OR = 1.021, 95%CI: 1.004-1.039, P = 0.01394). Subjects with the highest tertile of plasma elaidic acid levels were 51.9% more likely to have periodontitis compared with subjects with the lowest tertile of plasma elaidic acid levels (OR = 1.519, 95% CI: 1.136-2.030, P = 0.00477). No possible sources of heterogeneity were identified in the subgroup analyses. Conclusion Plasma elaidic acid levels are associated with periodontal disease in American adults.

Abstract
This study aimed to identify systemic multimorbidity clusters in people with periodontitis via a novel artificial intelligence-based network analysis and to explore the effect of associated factors. This study utilized cross-sectional data of 3,736 participants across 3 cycles of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2009 to 2014). Periodontal examination was carried out by trained dentists for participants aged ≥30 y. The extent of periodontitis was represented by the proportion of sites with clinical attachment loss (CAL)≥ 3 mm, split into 4 equal quartiles. A range of systemic diseases reported during the survey were also extracted. Hypergraph network analysis with eigenvector centralities was applied to identify systemic multimorbidity clusters and single-disease influence in the overall population and when stratified by CAL quartile. Individual factors that could affect the systemic multimorbidity clusters were also explored by CAL quartile. In the study population, the top 3 prevalent diseases were hypertension (63.9%), arthritis (47.6%), and obesity (45.9%). A total of 106 unique systemic multimorbidity clusters were identified across the study population. Hypertension was the most centralized disease in the overall population (centrality [C]: 0.50), followed closely by arthritis (C: 0.45) and obesity (C: 0.42). Diabetes had higher centrality in the highest CAL quartile (C: 0.31) than the lowest (C: 0.26). "Hypertension, obesity" was the largest weighted multimorbidity cluster across CAL quartiles. This study has revealed a range of common systemic multimorbidity clusters in people with periodontitis. People with periodontitis are more likely to present with hypertension and obesity together, and diabetes is more influential to multimorbidity clusters in people with severe periodontitis. Factors such as ethnicity, deprivation, and smoking status may also influence the pattern of multimorbidity clusters.

OBJECTIVES Life's Simple 7 (LS7) metrics provide insight into improving cardiovascular health (CVH) and help reduce mortality risks. Edentulous older adults have a higher mortality risk than dentulous ones, probably due to worse oral function. It is reported that wearing dentures will decrease the mortality risk factor by improving oral function. This prospective study aimed to investigate if denture wearing could modify the association between CVH profile and mortality risk among edentulous elderly. METHODS From the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III), 1,735 edentulous older adults (mean age 69.4 years old) with CVH profiles and data on denture wearing status were selected for this study. CVH profiles according to LS7 metrics were classified into poor, intermediate, or ideal. Denture wearers were defined as those wearing complete dentures in both arches all the time or only when awake. Multivariable Cox proportional-hazards regression was conducted to estimate the association of CVH profiles with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Stratified analyses and the testing of interaction terms were used to evaluate the difference between the association in edentulous patients with and without dentures. RESULTS A total of 1,420 (81.8%) older adults died during the 27-year follow-up, with 475 (27.6%) cases attributable to heart disease. After controlling for potential confounders, edentulous patients with an ideal CVH (LS7 = 10-14) had a lower mortality risk than those with poor CVH (LS7 = 0-4). Furthermore, we observed an effect modification by denture use (Pinteraction = 0.046), with the role of ideal CVH in mitigating mortality among the denture wearers (Hazard Ratio = 0.440 [0.329-0.588]), while no significant association among those without dentures. Similar results were achieved for cardiovascular mortality, but there was no effect modification of denture use (Pinteraction = 0.352). CONCLUSION In this study, a favorable cardiovascular health profile presents a protective effect on all-cause mortality only among edentulous patients wearing dentures instead of non-wearer. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Denture usage could improve oral function (e.g., chewing, smiling, speaking, etc.) and promote general health. Effect modification found in this study indicates having ideal CVH alone cannot substantially reduce mortality risk among edentulous patients. Therefore, health care professionals should keep an eye on the elderly not wearing dentures as they are probably more at risk for adverse health outcomes. It remains unclear if denture wearing has a causal relation with lower mortality risks, and further research is needed.

Association between Findings in Oral Health Screening and Body Mass Index: A Nation-Wide Longitudinal Study. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2021; 18:ijerph182111062.

Abstract
Oral diseases, such as periodontitis and dental caries, can cause systemic inflammation as well as local effects, which is an important contributing factor for obesity. We aimed to investigate the change in body mass index (BMI) according to the presence of periodontitis and oral hygiene indicators. This study enrolled 110,068 participants from the national health screening cohort in Korea from 2009–2010 who underwent an oral health checkup. As oral hygiene indicators, the presence of periodontitis, dental caries, tooth loss, and tooth brushing were assessed. We constructed a linear mixed model for BMI. BMI was repeatedly measured in the health examination until 2015. In the multivariate linear mixed model for BMI, the presence of periodontitis (β = 0.0687, standard error (SE) = 0.0225, p = 0.002), dental caries (β = 0.0735, SE = 0.0152, p < 0.001), and tooth loss (β = 0.1328, SE = 0.0175, p < 0.001) were positively associated with BMI. In contrast, frequent tooth brushing (≥3 times/day) was negatively associated with BMI (β = −0.2610, SE = 0.0306, p < 0.001). The presence of periodontitis, dental caries, and tooth loss may be associated with higher BMI, whereas frequent tooth brushing may be related to lower BMI. Better oral hygiene might be associated with lower BMI. Further study is needed to determine the effect of oral health behavior and dental disease on obesity.

Abstract
The objective of this 9-month clinical study is to assess the impact of one-stage full-mouth disinfection (FMD) on salivary nitrite levels and systemic biomarkers and its correlation with total subgingival bacterial load in obese and non-obese patients with periodontitis. In total, 94 patients (55 obese and 39 non-obese) were initially evaluated, seven were lost during follow-up, resulting in 87 individuals at the end of the study. Outcomes were assessed at baseline, 3, 6, and 9 months post periodontal treatment by FMD. Salivary nitrite levels were determined using Griess reagent. Blood samples were collected to determine C-Reactive Protein (CRP), alkaline phosphatase and fasting blood glucose. Real-time PCR was used to determine the total subgingival bacterial load. FMD protocol resulted in increased salivary nitrite levels at 6- and 9-months post-treatment in the non-obese group (p<0.05). In obese individuals, FMD treatment led to an increase in salivary nitrite levels at 6 months (p<0.05); however, at 9 months, the nitrite levels returned to baseline levels. For both groups, the highest nitrite values were observed at 6 months. In addition, in both groups, FMD was associated with a decrease in biomarkers related to systemic inflammation and cardiovascular diseases, such as CRP (p<0.05) and alkaline phosphatase (p<0.05), and had no impact on the fasting blood glucose. This study demonstrates that obese patients with periodontitis present similar salivary nitrite levels when compared with non-obese individuals. FMD protocol resulted in increases in salivary nitrite levels and was associated with a positive impact on systemic biomarkers, regardless of obesity status.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to examine whether modifiable risk factors can predict tooth loss over 10 years and estimate population attributable risk (PAR) for a combination of modifiable factors. Methods This longitudinal study included 1466 participants who underwent dental examinations in 2007 and 2017 and were aged 40 to 79 years at baseline. Periodontal conditions were assessed using the 2018 periodontal classification. Incident tooth loss was defined as ≥4 teeth lost over a 10‐year period. We calculated the partial PAR (pPAR%) for tooth loss to estimate the combined effect of modifiable risk factors. Results Incidence of tooth loss was 17.5%. Directed acyclic graphs were used to identify risk factors for tooth loss. A logistic regression model showed that baseline periodontitis, dental caries experience, no regular dental visit, periodontal treatment, smoking, and obesity were associated with tooth loss after adjusting for covariates; pPAR% was 55.5% (95% confidence interval: 31.1% to 73.0%) in periodontitis Stage III to IV and 87.6% (50.4% to 97.4%) in the combination of all factors, respectively. The sex‐stratified analysis showed that smoking and no regular dental visit in men and obesity in women were identified as potential risk factors for tooth loss. Conclusions Modifiable factors accounted for most cases of incident tooth loss. Risk factors for tooth loss might differ by sex, suggesting that the appropriate approach for preventing tooth loss base on sex.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the effect of metabolic syndrome (MetS) on tooth loss in adults from a population-based sample. METHODS Cross-sectional analysis based on data from a cohort study (2009-2014) with adults from Southern Brazil. MetS (exposure), lack of functional dentition and number of lost teeth (outcomes) were assessed using self-reported, lab and clinical data. Possible confounders included sex, age, family income, educational level, smoking status and sugar consumption. The effect of MetS on the outcomes was estimated using conventional logistic or negative binomial regression models. Marginal structural modeling (MSM) with stabilized weights (a counterfactual analytical method) was also used to enhance group comparability and estimate causal effects. RESULTS 1,283 participants had available information for the outcomes. Individuals with MetS were more likely to experience a lack of functional dentition than those without MetS [odds ratio (OR) from logistic regression 1.7, 95% CI 1.0-2.9; OR from MSM 3.2, 95% CI 2.3-4.6]. Moreover, the number of teeth lost was 20% higher in participants with MetS compared to those without MetS in conventional analysis (mean ratio [MR] 1.2, 95% CI 1.1- 1.3). The MR increased to 1.7 (95% CI 1.5-2.0) when using MSM. CONCLUSION Our findings provide evidence on the effect of MetS on tooth loss. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
This study aims to examine the impact of periodontal disease in obesity on COVID-19 infection and associated outcomes. This retrospective longitudinal study included 58,897 UK Biobank participants tested for COVID-19 between March 2020 and February 2021. Self-reported oral health indicators (bleeding gums, painful gums, and loose teeth) were used as surrogates for periodontal disease. Body fat levels were quantified by body mass index (BMI) and categorized as normal weight (18.5 to 24.9 kg/m2), overweight (25 to 29.9 kg/m2), and obese (≥30 kg/m2). Multivariable logistic regression and Cox proportional hazard models were used to quantify risk of COVID-19 infection, hospital admission, and mortality, adjusted for participants’ demographics and covariates. Of 58,897 participants, 14,466 (24.6%) tested positive for COVID-19 infection. COVID-19 infection was higher for participants who were overweight (odds ratio, 1.18; 95% CI, 1.12 to 1.24) and obese (odds ratio, 1.33; 95% CI, 1.26 to 1.41) as compared with those of normal weight, but infection was not affected by periodontal disease. The hospital admission rate was 57% higher (hazard ratio, 1.57; 95% CI, 1.25 to 1.97) in the obese group with periodontal disease than without periodontal disease, and admission rates increased with BMI category (normal weight, 4.4%; overweight, 6.8%; obese, 10.1%). Mortality rates also increased with BMI category (normal weight, 1.9%; overweight, 3.17%; obese, 4.5%). In addition, for participants with obesity, the mortality rate was much higher (hazard ratio, 3.11; 95% CI, 1.91 to 5.06) in participants with periodontal disease than those without. Obesity is associated with higher hospitalization and mortality rates, and periodontal disease may exacerbate this impact. The results could inform health providers, policy makers, and the general public of the importance to maintain good oral health through seamless provision of dental services and public oral health prevention initiatives.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to examine the association between systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and periodontitis in Norway during a 10-year period from 2008 through 2017. METHODS In this population-based study, 1990 patients were included in the SLE-cohort based on diagnostic codes registered in the Norwegian Patient Registry. The control group (n = 170,332) comprised patients registered with diagnostic codes for non-osteoporotic fractures or hip or knee replacement because of osteoarthritis. The outcome was periodontitis, defined by procedure codes registered in the Control and Payment of Health Refunds database. Logistic regression analyses were performed to estimate odds ratio for periodontitis in patients versus controls adjusted for potential covariates. RESULTS Periodontitis was significantly more common in SLE patients compared to controls (OR 1.78, 95% CI 1.47-2.14) and the difference was highest in SLE-patients 20 to 30 years of age (OR 3.24, 95% CI 1.23 - 8.52). The periodontitis rate in SLE patients was in the same range as for patients with diabetes mellitus type 2. CONCLUSIONS Patients with SLE had an almost doubled risk of periodontitis compared with the control population, and the difference was most accentuated in the young patients. These findings warrant an increased focus on dental health in SLE-patients.

Abstract
CONTEXT Periodontitis confers an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes and, in patients with obesity, it might interfere with the incretin axis. The effect of periodontal treatment on glucoregulatory hormones remains unknown. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of periodontal treatment on incretin axis in obese and lean nondiabetic individuals. SETTING King's College Dental Hospital and Institute, London, UK. PARTICIPANTS AND METHODS The metabolic profile of obese and normal-body-mass-index individuals affected by periodontitis was studied at baseline, 2, and 6 months after intensive periodontal treatment, by measuring plasma insulin, glucagon, glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1), and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and markers of systemic inflammation and oxidative stress. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) Circulating levels of incretins and inflammatory markers. RESULTS At baseline, periodontal parameters were worse for obese than nonobese; this was accompanied by higher levels of circulating high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), insulin, and GLP-1. The response to periodontal treatment was less favorable in the obese group, without significant variations of hs-CRP or malondialdehyde. Glucoregulatory hormones changed differently after treatment: while insulin and glucagon did not vary at 2 and 6 months, GLP-1 and GIP significantly increased at 6 months in both groups. In particular, GLP-1 increased more rapidly in obese participants, while the increase of GIP followed similar trends across visits in both groups. CONCLUSIONS Nonsurgical treatment of periodontitis is associated with increased GLP-1 and GIP levels in nonobese and obese patients; changes in GLP-1 were more rapid in obese participants. This might have positive implications for the metabolic risk of these individuals.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a complex multifactorial disease that can lead to destruction of tooth supporting tissues and subsequent tooth loss. The most recent global burden of disease studies highlight that severe periodontitis is one of the most prevalent chronic inflammatory conditions affecting humans. Periodontitis risk is attributed to genetics, host-microbiome and environmental factors. Empirical diagnostic and prognostic systems have yet to be validated in the field of periodontics. Early diagnosis and intervention prevents periodontitis progression in most patients. Increased susceptibility and suboptimal control of modifiable risk factors can result in poor response to therapy, and relapse. The chronic immune-inflammatory response to microbial biofilms at the tooth or dental implant surface is associated with systemic conditions such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes or gastrointestinal diseases. Oral fluid-based biomarkers have demonstrated easy accessibility and potential as diagnostics for oral and systemic diseases, including the identification of SARS-CoV-2 in saliva. Advances in biotechnology have led to innovations in lab-on-a-chip and biosensors to interface with oral-based biomarker assessment. This review highlights new developments in oral biomarker discovery and their validation for clinical application to advance precision oral medicine through improved diagnosis, prognosis and patient stratification. Their potential to improve clinical outcomes of periodontitis and associated chronic conditions will benefit the dental and overall public health.

Abstract
AIM To assess obesity as a risk factor for tooth loss over 5 years in an urban sample of Brazilian adults. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 1586 individuals were surveyed using a multistage probabilistic approach. Five years later, 635 individuals 14-64 years old were re-examined. An incident case of tooth loss was determined for a participant that had lost at least one tooth over time. Obesity was evaluated by calculating body mass index at baseline and by the change in obesity status over time. RESULTS Incident cases of tooth loss were significantly more frequent among obese (47.1%) than normal-weight individuals (32.4%) (p = .004). Obese individuals had 31% higher risk [relative risk (RR) =1.31; 95% confidence interval (95%CI) 1.04-1.65] for tooth loss than normal-weight individuals adjusting for age, socio-economic status, smoking, dental care and periodontitis. This association was significant for females (RR=1.47, 95%CI 1.08-2.01), but not for males. The risk for tooth loss was also modified by presence of periodontitis at baseline and lifetime smoking exposure. There was an increased risk for tooth loss for those that remained obese than those that remained normal weight. CONCLUSION Obesity is associated with higher risk for tooth loss. This association was modified by sex, periodontal status and smoking.

Clin Oral Investig 2020; 25:701-709.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE SLC22A4/5 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been reported to affect inflammatory diseases. We report the relationship of these polymorphisms with adiposity and tooth loss as elucidated in a 10-year follow-up study. METHODS Participants of the Study of Health in Pomerania (SHIP, N = 4105) were genotyped for the polymorphisms c.1507C > T in SLC22A4 (rs1050152) and -207C > G in SLC22A5 (rs2631367) using allele-specific real-time PCR assays. A total of 1817 subjects, 934 female and 883 male aged 30-80 years, underwent follow-up 10 years later (SHIP-2) and were assessed for adiposity and tooth loss. RESULTS The frequencies of the rarer SLC22A4 TT and SLC22A5 CC alleles were 16.7% and 20.3%, respectively. In women, tooth loss was associated with genotype TT vs. CC with incidence rate ratio IRR = 0.74 (95%C.I. 0.60-0.92) and CC vs. GG IRR = 0.79 (0.65-0.96) for SLC22A4 and SLC22A5 SNPs, respectively. In men, no such associations were observed. In the follow-up examination, the relationship between tooth loss and these SNPs was in parallel with measures of body shape such as BMI, body weight, waist circumference, or body fat accumulation. The association between muscle strength and body fat mass was modified by the genotypes studied. CONCLUSIONS SLC22A4 c.150C > T and SLC22A5 -207C > G polymorphisms are associated with tooth loss and markers of body shape in women but not in men. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Tooth loss may be related to obesity beyond inflammatory mechanisms, conceivably with a genetic background.

Abstract
Objectives We aimed at investigating whether the interaction between the local inflammation, periodontitis, and obesity is independently associated with systemic inflammation. Methods From the population-based Study of Health in Pomerania, 3366 participants, without (2366) and with (1000) obesity, were studied for the association of periodontitis, measured as probing depth (PD) and plaque together with body mass index (BMI) on C-reactive protein (CRP). Quantile regression was used to evaluate the association between periodontal, anthropometric, and inflammatory variables (outcomes). Results The overall prevalence of obesity in this adult population was 31.4% in men and 28.1% in women. Both PD and plaque were positively associated with CRP, revealing an increasing impact across the CRP concentration distribution. Adjusting the regression of CRP or fibrinogen on PD for waist circumference attenuated but did not abolish the PD coefficients. Dental plaque was similarly associated with these interrelations. Association between PD and a dental plaque was different among participants with low-, medium-, or high-risk CRP concentrations. Conclusion Local and systemic sources of inflammation contribute to blood levels of inflammatory markers. The respective contributions depend on the relative rate in each of the inflammation-inducing risks and are dominated by adiposity. Clinical relevance Keeping systemic inflammation low in order to prevent age-related disease sequelae.

Abstract
Objective Obesity is a chronic disease that negatively affects an individual's general and oral health. The present study aimed to compare the clinical and microbiological effects of non-surgical periodontal therapy with the full mouth disinfection (FMD) protocol on obese and non-obese individuals at 9 months post-therapy. Methodology This clinical study was first submitted and approved by the Ethics Committee. Fifty-five obese patients and 39 non-obese patients with periodontitis were evaluated. The full-mouth periodontal clinical parameters, clinical attachment level (CAL), probing depth (PD), gingival index (GI), and plaque index (PI), were monitored at baseline, 3, 6, and 9 months after periodontal treatment with full mouth disinfection (FMD) protocol. The mean count of Tannerella forsythia , Porphyromonas gingivalis , Treponema Denticola , and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans was determined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction on subgingival biofilm samples. Demographic data were assessed by Chi-square test. For clinical and microbiological parameters, two-factor repeated-measures ANOVA was used. Results In both groups, periodontal therapy using the one-stage full-mouth disinfection protocol significantly improved CAL, PD, GI, and PI (p<0.05). Obese and non-obese patients equally responded to non-surgical periodontal therapy (p>0.05). Microbial count found no major differences (p>0.05) between obese and non-obese individuals who had undergone non-surgical periodontal therapy. Conclusions Obesity did not affect the clinical and microbiological outcomes of non-surgical periodontal therapy.

Abstract
Aging is accompanied by profound changes in many physiological functions, leading to a decreased ability to cope with stressors. Many changes are subtle, but can negatively affect nutrient intake, leading to overt malnutrition. Poor oral health may affect food selection and nutrient intake, leading to malnutrition and, consequently, to frailty and sarcopenia. On the other hand, it has been highlighted that sarcopenia is a whole-body process also affecting muscles dedicated to chewing and swallowing. Hence, muscle decline of these muscle groups may also have a negative impact on nutrient intake, increasing the risk for malnutrition. The interplay between oral diseases and malnutrition with frailty and sarcopenia may be explained through biological and environmental factors that are linked to the common burden of inflammation and oxidative stress. The presence of oral problems, alone or in combination with sarcopenia, may thus represent the biological substratum of the disabling cascade experienced by many frail individuals. A multimodal and multidisciplinary approach, including personalized dietary counselling and oral health care, may thus be helpful to better manage the complexity of older people. Furthermore, preventive strategies applied throughout the lifetime could help to preserve both oral and muscle function later in life. Here, we provide an overview on the relevance of poor oral health as a determinant of malnutrition and sarcopenia.
