Abstract
Introduction This study aimed to assess the prevalence of edentulism and tooth loss in the Slovenian elderly population, along with the associated risk factors, and investigate the association between systemic and oral health. Methods The study included 445 individuals aged 65 or older (average age: 79.7±8.9 years). Data on preserved teeth, dental history, chronic diseases, and medications were collected through clinical examinations. Height and weight were recorded in order to calculate body mass index (BMI), and the education level was also collected. Chronic systemic diseases and medications were categorized. Statistical analysis was conducted using linear regression and nonparametric tests. Results Participants had an average of 4.7±7.7 teeth, with no significant gender differences. Higher age (β=-0.185, p<0.001) and lower education level (p<0.001) were associated with fewer teeth, while higher BMI showed no correlation (β=-0.085, p=0.325). Diabetes mellitus (p=0.031), cardiovascular diseases (p=0.025), and thyroid diseases (p=0.043) were inversely related to retained teeth. This inverse relationship also applied to individuals who recovered from malignancies, not including head and neck malignancies (p=0.019). No significant relationship was found between osteoporosis and the number of teeth (p=0.573). Notably, antidiabetic drug use was inversely related to the number of teeth (p=0.004), while analgesics showed a positive relationship (p=0.022). Conclusions This study highlights the association between specific sociodemographic factors, chronic diseases, and retained teeth among elderly individuals in Slovenia. High edentulism rates among the elderly emphasize the need for enhanced preventive measures and risk factor management, particularly for high-risk groups like the elderly.

Effects of oxidized LDL versus IL-1ß/TNF-ɑ/INFɣ on human gingival mesenchymal stem cells properties. J Periodontal Res 2024. [PMID: 38952262 DOI: 10.1111/jre.13319] [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: 04/23/2024] [Revised: 06/12/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/03/2024]
Abstract
AIMS Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) is an important player in the course of metabolic inflammatory diseases. oxLDL was identified in the gingival crevicular fluid, denoting possible associations between oxLDL-induced inflammation and periodontal disease. The current investigation compared for the first-time direct effects of oxLDL to a cytokine cocktail of IL-1ß/TNF-ɑ/INF-γ on gingival mesenchymal stem cells' (G-MSCs) attributes. METHODS Human third passage G-MSCs, isolated from connective tissue biopsies (n = 5) and characterized, were stimulated in three groups over 7 days: control group, cytokine group (IL-1β[1 ng/mL], TNF-α[10 ng/mL], IFN-γ[100 ng/mL]), or oxLDL group (oxLDL [50 μg/mL]). Next Generation Sequencing and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis, stemness gene expression (NANOG/SOX2/OCT4A), cellular proliferation, colony-formation, multilinear potential, and altered intracellular pathways were investigated via histochemistry, next-generation sequencing, and RT-qPCR. RESULTS G-MSCs exhibited all mesenchymal stem cells' characteristics. oxLDL group and cytokine group displayed no disparities in their stemness markers (p > .05). Next-generation-sequencing revealed altered expression of the TXNIP gene in response to oxLDL treatment compared with controls (p = .04). Following an initial boosting for up to 5 days by inflammatory stimuli, over 14 day, cellular counts [median count ×10-5 (Q25/Q75)] were utmost in control - [2.6607 (2.0804/4.5357)], followed by cytokine - [0.0433 (0.0026/1.4215)] and significantly lowered in the oxLDL group [0.0274 (0.0023/0.7290); p = .0047]. Osteogenic differentiation [median relative Ca2+ content(Q25/Q75)] was significantly lower in cytokine - [0.0066 (0.0052/0.0105)] compared to oxLDL - [0.0144 (0.0108/0.0216)] (p = .0133), with no differences notable for chondrogenic and adipogenic differentiation (p > .05). CONCLUSIONS Within the current investigation's limitations, in contrast to cytokine-mediated inflammation, G-MSCs appear to be minimally responsive to oxLDL-mediated metabolic inflammation, with little negative effect on their differentiation attributes and significantly reduced cellular proliferation.

Abstract
The bidirectional association between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and periodontitis is now well established, resulting in periodontal disease being considered as the 6th major complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) after car-diovascular disease, eye disease, neuropathy, nephropathy, and peripheral vascular disease. DM can worsen the virulence and invasiveness of pathogenic oral microbial flora aggravating the local inflammation and infection in those with periodontal disease. On the other hand, the chemical and immunological mediators released into the circulation as part of periodontal inflammation worsen the systemic insulin resistance with worsening of T2DM. Periodontitis if undiagnosed or left untreated can also result in eventual tooth loss. A study by Xu et al in the World Journal of Diabetes examined the predictive factors associated with periodontitis in Chinese patients with T2DM. The prevalence of periodontitis was found to be 75.7% in this study. Based on logistic regression analysis, the predictive factors for higher risk were low tooth brushing frequency [odds ratio (OR) = 4.3], high triglycerides (TG; OR = 3.31), high total cholesterol (TC; OR = 2.87), higher glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c; OR = 2.55), and higher age (OR = 1.05) while higher education level was protective (OR = 0.53). However, the most influential variables were HbA1c followed by age, TC, TG, low education level, brushing frequency, and sex on the random forest model (this model showed higher sensitivity for predicting the risk). A good understanding of the predictors for periodontitis in T2DM patients is important in prevention, early detection of susceptible patients, and intervention to improve periodontal health and enable long-term glycaemic control as observed by Xu et al.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common non-communicable disease occurring globally. Although previous literature has provided useful insights into the important role that diet plays in CVD prevention and treatment, understanding the causal role of diets is a difficult task considering inherent and introduced weaknesses of observational (e.g. not properly addressing confounders and mediators) and experimental research designs (e.g. not appropriate or well designed). In this narrative review, we organised current evidence linking diet, as well as conventional and emerging physiological risk factors, with CVD risk, incidence and mortality in a series of diagrams. The diagrams presented can aid causal inference studies as they provide a visual representation of the types of studies underlying the associations between potential risk markers/factors for CVD. This may facilitate the selection of variables to be considered and the creation of analytical models. Evidence depicted in the diagrams was systematically collected from studies included in the British Nutrition Task Force report on diet and CVD and database searches, including Medline and Embase. Although several markers and disorders linked to conventional and emerging risk factors for CVD were identified, the causal link between many remains unknown. There is a need to address the multifactorial nature of CVD and the complex interplay between conventional and emerging risk factors with natural and built environments, while bringing the life course into the spotlight.

Abstract
Over the past decade, there have been significant advancements in the high-flow analysis of "omics," shedding light on the relationship between the microbiota and the host. However, the full recognition of this relationship and its implications in cardiometabolic diseases are still underway, despite advancements in understanding the pathophysiology of these conditions. Cardiometabolic diseases, which include a range of conditions from insulin resistance to cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes, continue to be the leading cause of mortality worldwide, with a persistently high morbidity rate. While the link between the intestinal microbiota and cardiometabolic risks has been extensively explored, the role of the oral microbiota, the second-largest microbiota in the human body, and specifically the dysbiosis of this microbiota in causing these complications, remains incompletely defined. This review aims to examine the association between the oral microbiota and cardiometabolic diseases, focusing on the dysbiosis of the oral microbiota, particularly in periodontal disease. Additionally, we will dive into the mechanistic aspects of this dysbiosis that contribute to the development of these complications. Finally, we will discuss potential prevention and treatment strategies, including the use of prebiotics, probiotics, and other interventions.

Abstract
Periodontal diseases (PDs) and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are highly prevalent global diseases with increasing percentages of morbidity and mortality. Both PD and CVDs independently have multifactorial causation, and emerging evidence shows an association between PD and CVDs. Periodontal diseases like gingivitis and periodontitis are chronic inflammatory conditions that eventually cause systemic inflammation, leading to many systemic diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, cardiovascular diseases, and others. In this study, we followed a systematic review approach to give an overview of the current evidence on the association between PD and CVDs. We used a relevant search strategy to retrieve articles from databases such as PubMed and Google Scholar from 2013 to July 2023. Upon applying filters and screening through titles and abstracts, we could narrow down articles to 21. On full-text screening, we selected 10 articles for in-depth analysis. This study showed a significant correlation between PD and CVDs. Poor oral hygiene, infection, and inflammation in the oral cavity lead to systemic inflammation, causing endothelial dysfunction. There are controversial views about PD acting as an independent risk factor for CVD development, as there are other risk factors such as age, gender, smoking, etc. acting as confounding factors while establishing the link between PD and CVDs. Knowledge about oral health, maintaining good oral hygiene, and proper treatment for PD could reduce the incidence of CVDs. Further research is needed to prove that PD is an independent risk factor for CVDs.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis (AS) is an inflammatory vascular disease that constitutes a major underlying cause of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and stroke. Infection is a contributing risk factor for AS. Epidemiological evidence has implicated individuals afflicted by periodontitis displaying an increased susceptibility to AS and CVD. This review concisely outlines several prevalent periodontal pathogens identified within atherosclerotic plaques, including Porphyromonas gingivalis, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, and Fusobacterium nucleatum. We review the existing epidemiological evidence elucidating the association between these pathogens and AS-related diseases, and the diverse mechanisms for which these pathogens may engage in AS, such as endothelial barrier disruption, immune system activation, facilitation of monocyte adhesion and aggregation, and promotion of foam cell formation, all of which contribute to the progression and destabilization of atherosclerotic plaques. Notably, the intricate interplay among bacteria underscores the complex impact of periodontitis on AS. In conclusion, advancing our understanding of the relationship between periodontal pathogens and AS will undoubtedly offer invaluable insights and potential therapeutic avenues for the prevention and management of AS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the relationship between periodontitis and subclinical intracranial atherosclerosis. The association of periodontitis with preclinical markers of atherosclerosis in other vascular territories was also explored. MATERIAL AND METHODS This was a cross-sectional study where 97 elderly subjects with a previous history of hypertension received an ultrasonographic evaluation to assess subclinical atherosclerosis in different vascular territories: (1) cerebral [pulsatility (PI) and resistance index (RI) of the middle cerebral artery], (2) carotid [intima-media thickness (IMT)], and (3) peripheral [ankle-brachial index (ABI)]. Additionally, participants underwent a full-mouth periodontal assessment together with blood sample collection to determine levels of inflammatory biomarkers (leukocytes, fibrinogen, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate), lipid fractions (total cholesterol and high- and low-density lipoprotein), and glucose. RESULTS Sixty-one individuals had periodontitis. Compared to subjects without periodontitis, those with periodontitis showed higher values of PI (1.24 ± 0.29 vs 1.01 ± 0.16), RI (0.70 ± 0.14 vs 0.60 ± 0.06), and IMT (0.94 ± 0.15 vs 0.79 ± 0.15) (all p < 0.001). No statistically significant differences were found neither for ABI or for other clinical and biochemical parameters. An independent association was found between periodontitis and increased intracranial atherosclerosis (ORadjusted = 10.16; 95% CI: 3.14-32.90, p < 0.001) and to a lesser extent with thicker carotid IMT (ORadjusted = 4.10; 95% CI: 1.61-10.48, p = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS Periodontitis is associated with subclinical atherosclerosis in both intracranial and carotid arteries in elderly subjects with hypertension. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The association of periodontitis with intracranial atherosclerosis implies that periodontitis patients might have greater chances to develop ischemic stroke in the future.

Yeh YT, Tseng YS, Wu YL, Yang SF, Wang BY, Wang YH, Yeh LT, Yeh YT, Chan CH. Risk of Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease with Periodontitis and Dental Scaling: A Nationwide Population-Based Cohort Study. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:ijerph191610057. [PMID: 36011700 PMCID: PMC9408091 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph191610057] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2022] [Revised: 08/11/2022] [Accepted: 08/12/2022] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
Periodontitis (PD) is a common oral disease associated with various other diseases, particularly those affecting the cardiovascular system. This study explored whether peripheral artery occlusive disease (PAOD) is associated with PD and dental scaling. This study was a retrospective cohort study design from 2000 to 2018. The study population was newly diagnosed with periodontitis. The comparison group was defined as never diagnosed with periodontitis. The outcome variable was defined with the diagnosis of peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD). The propensity score matching was performed by age, sex, comorbidities, and dental scaling between the two groups. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to calculate the cumulative incidence of PAOD among the two groups. To perform the independent risk of the PAOD group, the multivariate Cox proportional hazard model was used to estimate the hazard ratios. First, 792,681 patients with PD and 458,521 patients with no history of PD were selected from Taiwan's Longitudinal Health Insurance Database, which comprises the data of two million beneficiaries. After propensity score matching between the PD and non-PD groups for age, sex, comorbidities, and dental scaling, 357,106 patients in each group were analyzed for PAOD risk. The incidence density, relative risk, and cumulative incidence of PAOD were higher in the PD group than in the non-PD group. After adjusting for all variables, the risk of PAOD for the PD group was greater than for the non-PD group (adjusted hazard ratio = 1.03; 95% CI, 1.01-1.06). Undergoing at least one dental scaling procedure reduced the risk of PAOD. Age over 65 years was also a risk factor. In conclusion, patients with PD have an increased risk of PAOD. In addition, our results can lead to increased attention to oral hygiene, as dental scaling has a trend towards a lower risk of PAOD.

Abstract
This literature review examines the need to develop appropriate policies specific to the oral health needs of older people that are individualised, cost-effective, and sustainable. Poor oral health and impaired oral function negatively affect the health and quality of life of older adults. Developing care systems that aim to meet patients' normative needs as well as their perceived needs and expectations is one factor in successful delivery of appropriate dental care. Cost is another significant driver of utilisation, and many older adults worldwide lack adequate resources for dental care. Failure to address these issues results in poor outcomes and increased costs of dental and medical care. Disease prevention and control at early stages can preserve public and private financial resources as well as quality of life and well-being for older adults at any stage of life.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute infection/inflammation increases the risk of acute vascular events (AVEs). Invasive dental treatments (IDTs) trigger short-term acute inflammation. PURPOSE The aim of this work is to critically appraise the evidence linking IDTs and AVEs. DATA SOURCES Six bibliographical databases were searched up to 31 August 2021. A systematic review following PRISMA guidelines was performed. STUDY SELECTION Intervention and observational studies reporting any AVEs following IDT were included. DATA EXTRACTION Two reviewers independently extracted data and rated the quality of studies. Data were pooled using fixed-effect, inverse variance weights analysis. RISK OF BIAS Risk of bias was assessed by the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale for observational studies and the Cochrane Handbook-Rob 2.0 for randomized controlled trials. DATA SYNTHESIS In 3 out of 16 clinical studies, a total of 533,175 participants, 124,344 myocardial infarctions, and 327,804 ischaemic strokes were reported. Meta-analysis confirmed that IDT did not increase incidence ratios (IR) for combined vascular events either at 1-4 weeks (IR of 1.02, 95% CIs: 0.92 to 1.13) and at 5-8 weeks (IR of 1.04, 95% CIs: 0.97 to1.10) after treatment. LIMITATIONS A high level of heterogeneity (study designs and time point assessments) was found. CONCLUSION Patients who received IDT exhibited no substantial increase in vascular risk over 8 weeks post treatment.

Crosstalk between Venous Thromboembolism and Periodontal Diseases: A Bioinformatics Analysis. DISEASE MARKERS 2021; 2021:1776567. [PMID: 34925639 PMCID: PMC8683231 DOI: 10.1155/2021/1776567] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2021] [Revised: 11/22/2021] [Accepted: 11/25/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Background This current study applied bioinformatics analysis to reveal the crosstalk between venous thromboembolism (VTE) and periodontitis, as well as the potential role of immune-related genes in this context. Methods Expression data were downloaded from the GEO database. Blood samples from venous thromboembolism (VTE) were used (GSE19151), while for periodontal disease, we used gingival tissue samples (GSE10334, GSE16134, and GSE23586). After batch correction, we used “limma” packages of R language for differential expression analysis (p value < 0.05, ∣logFC | ≥0.5). We used Venn diagrams to extract the differentially expressed genes common to VTE and periodontitis as potential crosstalk genes and applied functional enrichment analysis (GO biological process and KEGG pathway). The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network of crosstalk genes was constructed by Cytoscape software. The immune-related genes were downloaded from the literature. The Wilcoxon test was used to test the scores of immune infiltrating cells. The crosstalk genes were further screened by LASSO Logistic Regression. Results For periodontitis, 427 case and 136 control samples, and for VTE, 70 case and 63 control samples were included. The obtained PPI network had 1879 nodes and 2257 edges. Moreover, 782 immune genes and 28 cell types were included in the analysis. Over 90% of immune cells had different expressions in VTE and periodontitis. We obtained 12 significant pathways corresponding to crosstalk genes. CD3D, CSF3R, and CXCR4 acted as an immune gene and a crosstalk gene. We obtained a total of 12 shared biomarker crosstalk genes. Among those 12 biomarker crosstalk genes, 4 were immune genes (LGALS1, LSP1, SAMSN1, and WIPF1). Conclusion Four biomarker crosstalk genes between periodontitis and VTE were also immune genes, i.e., LGALS1, LSP1, SAMSN1, and WIPF1. The findings of the current study need further validation and are a basis for development of biomarkers.

Abstract
Periodontal disease (PD) is common in the US and globally. Evidence suggests that poor oral health is associated with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD); however, this relationship has not been a major focus in clinical cardiology. This manuscript will review the growing evidence linking PD to ASCVD, including pathophysiologic mechanisms and coexistent risk factors. Public health considerations with a focus on disparities, social determinants, preventive strategies, and a call to action to reduce the burden of coincident ASCVD and PD are also reviewed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are in charge of many deaths worldwide including myocardial infarction (MI), hypertension (HTN), coronary atherosclerosis (CAS), infective endocarditis (IE), heart failure (HF), arterial fibrillation (AF), and peripheral artery disease (PAD). Besides, periodontitis is the sixth prevalent disease among humans and it seems that there are common risk factors between these diseases which are creating communication between prevalence and treatment. The purpose of this study is to assess the articles that reviewed the relationship between heart diseases and periodontitis. METHODS Three databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched until November 2020. The search terms "periodontal disease, periodontitis, oral health, cardiovascular disease, atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, hypertension, coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, arterial fibrillation, arrhythmia, and peripheral artery disease" were used in combination to identify the publications providing data. RESULTS MI, HTN, atherosclerosis diseases for coronary artery, IE, HF, AF, and PAD were associated with periodontitis. It seems that the treatment of periodontitis may help to improve the state of mentioned heart-related diseases. However, more studies are needed to prove this relationship. CONCLUSION The prevalence of heart diseases is more common in individuals with periodontitis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This paper outlines how oral diseases such as periodontitis and periapical periodontitis may be linked to cardiovascular disease, atrial fibrillation and cardiac arrhythmia. We undertake a systematic review of the literature focused on acute dental infection and types of cardiac arrhythmia and also describe an illustrative case where an acute dental infection diagnosed as periapical periodontitis was associated with the occurrence of atrial fibrillation. METHODS An electronic search was undertaken using MEDLINE and SCOPUS from 01 Jan 1970 to 30 June 2020. We also undertook manual searches using forward and backward citation chasing. Inclusion criteria were any primary research studies investigating any acute dental infection, with outcomes of cardiac arrhythmia or atrial fibrillation. RESULTS Over the last fifty years, only two low-quality studies have been investigated in this area. Our illustrative case involved a 58 year-old who was diagnosed with an acute dental infection from an upper canine tooth who then developed atrial fibrillation. CONCLUSIONS Based on the biological plausibility of a link between acute dental infection and types of cardiac arrhythmia such as atrial fibrillation, together with the case report presented, it is evident that further study in this area is needed. If there are possible cardiovascular consequences for patients suffering from acute dental infection, then this will have implications for healthcare staff since they can integrate professional advice relating to oral health with cardiovascular disease and atrial fibrillation. Screening programmes situated in dental settings can facilitate early intervention and prevention producing benefits for patients and savings to the health system.

Abstract
The use of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) techniques has generated a wide variety of blood microbiome data. Due to the large variation in bacterial DNA profiles between studies and the likely high concentrations of cell-free bacterial DNA in the blood, it is still not clear how such microbiome data relates to viable microbiota. For these reasons much remains to be understood about the true nature of any possible healthy blood microbiota and of bacteraemic events associated with disease. The gut, reproductive tracts, skin, and oral cavity are all likely sources of blood-borne bacteria. Oral bacteria, especially those associated with periodontal diseases, are also commonly associated with cardiovascular diseases such as infective endocarditis, and also have been linked to rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer’s disease. Periodontal treatment, dental probing, and toothbrushing have been shown to cause transient bacteraemia and oral bacteria from the phyla Firmicutes (e.g. Streptococci) and Bacteroidetes (e.g. Porphyromonas) are found in cardiovascular lesions (CVD). Many studies of blood bacterial DNA content however, find Proteobacteria DNA to be the dominant microbiome component, suggesting a gut origin. Most studies of this type use total DNA extracted from either whole blood or blood fractions, such as buffy coat. Here, using a method that purifies DNA from intact bacterial cells only, we examined blood donated by those with active, severe periodontitis and periodontally healthy controls and show that 43–52% of bacterial species in blood are classified as oral. Firmicutes, consisting largely of members of the Streptococcus mitis group and Staphylococcus epidermidis, were predominant at 63.5% of all bacterial sequences detected in periodontal health and, little changed at 66.7% in periodontitis. Compared to studies using total DNA Proteobacteria were found here at relatively low levels in blood at 13.3% in periodontitis and 17.6% in health. This study reveals significant phylogenetic differences in blood bacterial population profiles when comparing periodontal health to periodontal disease cohorts.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of mortality; periodontal disease (PD) affects up to 50% of the world's population. Observational evidence has demonstrated association between CVD and PD. Absent from the literature is a systematic review and meta-analysis of longitudinal cohort studies quantifying CVD risk in PD populations compared to non-PD populations. To examine the risk of incident CVD in people with PD in randomised controlled trials and longitudinal cohort studies. MATERIAL AND METHODS We searched Medline, EMBASE and Cochrane databases up to 9th Oct 2019 using keywords and MeSH headings using the following concepts: PD, CVD, longitudinal and RCT study design. CVD outcomes included but were not restricted to any CVD, myocardial infarction, coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke. Diagnosis method and severity of PD were measured either clinically or by self-report. Studies comparing incident CVD in PD and non-PD populations were included. Meta-analysis and meta-regression was performed to determine risk of CVD in PD populations and examine the effects of PD diagnosis method, PD severity, gender and study region. RESULTS Thirty-two longitudinal cohort studies were included after full text screening; 30 were eligible for meta-analysis. The risk of CVD was significantly higher in PD compared to non-PD (relative risk [RR]: 1.20, 95% CI: 1.14-1.26). CVD risk did not differ between clinical or self-reported PD diagnosis (RR = 0.97, 95% CI: 0.87-1.07,). CVD risk was higher in men (RR: 1.16, 95% CI: 1.08-1.25) and severe PD (RR: 1.25, 95% CI: 1.15-1.35). Among all types of CVD, the risk of stroke was highest (RR = 1.24; 95% CI:1.12-1.38), the risk of CHD was also increased (RR = 1.14; 95% CI:1.08-1.21). CONCLUSION This study demonstrated modest but consistently increased risk of CVD in PD populations. Higher CVD risk in men and people with severe PD suggests population-targeted interventions could be beneficial.

Abstract
Objectives Periodontal disease and tooth loss were found to be associated with several peripheral vascular disorders. Nonetheless, an evaluation of the literature on the broader domains of oral health in individuals with peripheral vascular disorders is lacking. This systematic review aims to collate the current evidence on the oral health status of individuals with peripheral vascular disorders. Methods Five electronic databases were searched for studies assessing oral health parameters in individuals with peripheral vascular disorders. Outcome measures considered were periodontal health, dentition status, caries indices, oral prostheses, oral pathologies and oral hygiene behaviours. The Newcastle-Ottawa scale was used to appraise the quality of the studies. Results From 3025 records identified, 24 studies involving 1232 participants with peripheral vascular disorders were included in this review. In nine studies, periodontitis was significantly more prevalent in peripheral vascular disorders compared to non-peripheral vascular disorders participants. A further six studies reported individuals with peripheral vascular disorders also had significantly fewer teeth and increased rates of edentulism. Only one study reported a higher incidence of dental caries in peripheral vascular disorders participants. Other aspects of oral health such as oral prosthesis, oral pathology and oral hygiene behaviours were seldom assessed. Conclusions The scarcity of studies reporting on broader domains limited our ability to arrive at a conclusion regarding the oral health status of individuals with peripheral vascular disorders. Future studies ought to assess these domains in individuals with peripheral vascular disorders and controls to gain a more complete understanding of oral health and its potential association with peripheral vascular disorders.

Association between Periodontitis and High Blood Pressure: Results from the Study of Periodontal Health in Almada-Seixal (SoPHiAS). J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9051585. [PMID: 32456145 PMCID: PMC7291060 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9051585] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2020] [Revised: 05/15/2020] [Accepted: 05/18/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Periodontitis is a common chronic inflammatory disease which could have an important impact on blood pressure (BP). This study aimed to explore (a) the association between periodontal health and BP in a large representative cohort, (b) the predictive value of diagnosis of periodontitis in undiagnosed raised BP and (c) whether age is a mediator of this relationship. In total, 1057 randomly recruited individuals (mean age, 60.9 ± 16.3 years, 57.7% women) underwent periodontal clinical assessment and one-single BP measurement using an automated sphygmomanometer device. Logistic and linear regression models were used to estimate the odds of hypertension based on periodontitis case definitions. Mediation analysis was performed to understand the effect of age on the association of periodontitis with hypertension. Adjusted logistic model for gender, smoking habits and body mass index confirmed the association between high BP and periodontitis (OR = 2.31, 95%CI: 1.75-3.04, p < 0.001). Among 168 participants with undiagnosed high BP (15.9% of the study sample), 62.5% had periodontitis (n = 105). In this study, the association between periodontitis with both systolic blood pressure (SBP) (77.6%, p < 0.001) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (66.0%, p < 0.001) was mediated by age. Periodontitis is closely linked to BP in a representative Portuguese population.

Development and application of a 3D periodontal in vitro model for the evaluation of fibrillar biomaterials. BMC Oral Health 2020; 20:148. [PMID: 32429904 PMCID: PMC7238548 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-020-01124-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2019] [Accepted: 04/28/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Periodontitis is a chronic inflammation of the tooth supporting structures that finally can lead to tooth loss. As chronic periodontitis is associated with systemic diseases multiple approaches have been followed to support regeneration of the destructed tissue. But very few materials are actually used in the clinic. A new and promising group of biomaterials with advantageous biomechanical properties that have the ability to support periodontal regeneration are self-assembling peptides (SAP). However, there is still a lack of 3D periodontal models that can evaluate the migration potential of such novel materials. Methods All experiments were performed with primary human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (HPLF). Migration capacity was assessed in a three-dimensional model of the human periodontal ligament by measuring the migration distance of viable cells on coated (Enamel Matrix Protein (EMP), P11–4, collagen I) or uncoated human dentin. Cellular metabolic activity on P11–4 hydrogels was assessed by a metabolic activity assay. Deposition of ECM molecules in a P11–4 hydrogel was visualized by immunostaining of collagen I and III and fibrillin I. Results The 3D periodontal model was feasible to show the positive effect of EMP for periodontal regeneration. Subsequently, self-assembling peptide P11–4 was used to evaluate its capacity to support regenerative processes in the 3D periodontal model. HPLF coverage of the dentin surface coated with P11–4 increased significantly over time, even though delayed compared to EMP. Cell viability increased and inclusion of ECM proteins into the biomaterial was shown. Conclusion The presented results indicate that the 3D periodontal model is feasible to assess periodontal defect coverage and that P11–4 serves as an efficient supporter of regenerative processes in the periodontal ligament. Clinical relevance The establishment of building-block synthetic polymers offers new opportunities for clinical application in dentistry. Self-assembling peptides represent a new generation of biomaterials as they are able to respond dynamically to the changing environment of the biological surrounding. Especially in the context of peri-implant disease prevention and treatment they enable the implementation of new concepts.

Abstract
Summary: Background: Although epidemiological data suggest an association between periodontitis (PD) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD), it is currently unclear whether treatment of PD influences the severity of PAD. Patients and methods: Whether periodontal treatment is associated with PAD disease severity was examined by analysing health insurance claims data of patients insured by the German health insurance fund, BARMER, between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2016. The presence of PAD was determined in individuals using International Classification of Diseases (ICD) 10th revision codes for intermittent claudication (IC) or chronic limb threatening ischaemia (CLTI). Treatment of PD was assessed by adequate ambulatory coding for non-surgical and surgical treatment of PD. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the association between PAD stages and periodontal treatment, adjusted for diabetes, age and sex. Results: The study cohort included 70,944 hospitalized patients with a diagnosis of symptomatic PAD (54.99 % women, 49.05 % IC). Among these patients, 3,567 (5.03 %) had received prior treatment for PD by supra- or sub-gingival debridement. PAD patients who had received periodontal treatment showed a lower proportion of CLTI (28.76 % among treated vs. 52.12 % among non-treated). Using multivariable regression methods, exhibiting a CLTI (vs. IC) was associated with not being treated for PD (Odds Ratio 1.97, 95 %–CI 1.83–2.13) after adjustment for age, gender, and diabetes. Conclusions: In this large-scale retrospective analysis of health insurance claims data comprising hospitalized symptomatic PAD patients, treatment of PD was associated with PAD disease severity independent of age, gender and diabetes. A potential benefit of periodontal treatment in relation to PAD will have to be determined in further prospective studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In Europe cardiovascular disease (CVD) is responsible for 3.9 million deaths (45% of deaths), being ischaemic heart disease, stroke, hypertension (leading to heart failure) the major cause of these CVD related deaths. Periodontitis is also a chronic non-communicable disease (NCD) with a high prevalence, being severe periodontitis, affecting 11.2% of the world's population, the sixth most common human disease. MATERIAL AND METHODS There is now a significant body of evidence to support independent associations between severe periodontitis and several NCDs, in particular CVD. In 2012 a joint workshop was held between the European Federation of Periodontology (EFP) and the American Academy of Periodontology to review the literature relating periodontitis and systemic diseases, including CVD. In the last five years important new scientific information has emerged providing important emerging evidence to support these associations RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: The present review reports the proceedings of the workshop jointly organised by the EFP and the World Heart Federation (WHF), which has updated the existing epidemiological evidence for significant associations between periodontitis and CVD, the mechanistic links and the impact of periodontal therapy on cardiovascular and surrogate outcomes. This review has also focused on the potential risk and complications of periodontal therapy in patients on anti thrombotic therapy and has made recommendations for dentists, physicians and for patients visiting both the dental and medical practices.

Abstract
This study evaluated the effects of replacing a saturated fat diet by n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3PUFA), on alveolar bone loss in hypercholesterolemic rats with experimental periodontitis (PD). METHODS Eight week old Wistar rats were assigned according to dietary intake. Control group (C, n = 15) fed a commercial diet throughout the experiment. Atherogenic group (AT, n = 30) fed AT diet for 3 weeks; thereafter, AT was randomized to receive either a n-3PUFA (n = 15) or to continue with AT (n = 15) diet. Subsequently, PD was induced in all groups by unilateral ligature (L) of the first molar (M1) of the left mandible, non-ligated contralateral molars served as controls. After every week of PD induction, 5 rats per group were euthanized. Serum was collected for lipids assays and hemi-mandibles were subjected to histomorphometric (% upper and lower interradicular bone volume and periodontal ligament height, hPDL) and radiographic analyses (periodontal bone support, PBS, in ligated teeth, between M1-M2). RESULTS Rats fed n-3PUFA diet rapidly induced a significant reduction in the serum lipids (p < 0.001). In all rats the ligated teeth showed a greater bone loss as compared with the unligated molars. At the end of the experiment the AT + L was the worst in % lower bone volume (p < 0.01), hPDL and PBS (p < 0.05). In contrast, rats fed n-3PUFA + L was similar to those rats fed C diet (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION Alveolar bone and dyslipidemia improved by substituting saturated fat intake for a n-3PUFA rich diet, in hypercholesterolemic rats with PD.

Abstract
Background: Observational studies support an association between periodontitis (PD) and atherosclerotic vascular disease, but little is known specifically about peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD). Objectives: To systematically review the evidence for an association between PD and PAOD. Data Sources: Medline via PubMed. Review Methods: We searched the Pubmed database for original studies, case reports, case series, meta-analyses and systematic reviews that assessed whether there is an association between PD (all degrees of severity) and PAOD (all degrees of severity). The reporting of this systematic review was in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement following the Population, Intervention, Control, and Outcome (PICO) format. Results: 17 out of 755 detected studies were included in the qualitative synthesis. Nine studies demonstrated associations between PD and PAOD, and two studies reported associations between tooth loss and PAOD. Six studies addressed the pathomechanism regarding PD as a possible trigger for PAOD. No study that dismissed an association could be detected. Odds ratios or hazard ratios ranged from 1.3 to 3.9 in four large cohort studies after adjusting for established cardiovascular risk factors. Conclusions: The presented evidence supports a link between PD and PAOD. Further studies which address the temporality of PD and PAOD and randomized controlled intervention trials examining the causal impact of PD on PAOD are needed. Although our results cannot confirm a causal role of PD in the development of PAOD, it is likely that PD is associated with PAOD and plays a contributing role.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease, initiated by the presence of a bacterial biofilm, called dental plaque, which affects both the periodontal ligaments and bone surrounding teeth. In the last decades, several lines of evidence have supported the existence of a relationship between periodontitis and systemic health. For instance, as periodontitis acts within the same chronic inflammatory model seen in cardiovascular disease (CVD), or other disorders, such as diabetes, several studies have suggested the existence of a bi-directional link between periodontal health and these pathologies. For instance, people with diabetes are more susceptible to infections and are more likely to suffer from periodontitis than people without this syndrome. Analogously, it is now evident that cardiac disorders are worsened by periodontitis, both experimentally and in humans. For all these reasons, it is very plausible that preventing periodontitis has an impact on the onset or progression of CVD and diabetes. On these grounds, in this review, we have provided an updated account on the current knowledge concerning periodontal disease and the adverse effects exerted on the cardiovascular system health and diabetes, informing readers on the most recent preclinical studies and epidemiological evidence.

Abstract
Previous evidence connects periodontal disease, a modifiable condition affecting a majority of Americans, with metabolic and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This review focuses on the likely mediation of these associations by immune activation and their potential interactions with mental illness. Future longitudinal, and ideally interventional studies, should focus on reciprocal interactions and cascading effects, as well as points for effective preventative and therapeutic interventions across diagnostic domains to reduce morbidity, mortality and improve quality of life.
