Effects of minimally invasive non-surgical therapy on C-reactive protein, lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A 2, and clinical outcomes in periodontitis patients: A 1-year randomized, controlled clinical trial. J Periodontol 2024. [PMID: 38696664 DOI: 10.1002/jper.23-0518] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2023] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 05/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Growing evidence suggests the type of periodontal treatment could differentially influence the reduction of key cardiovascular risk mediators in periodontitis patients. This randomized, controlled clinical trial compared the impact of minimally invasive non-surgical therapy (MINST) with quadrant-wise subgingival instrumentation (Q-SI) on C-reactive protein (CRP) together with lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) levels, and clinical periodontal outcomes in patients with periodontitis. Moreover, it was evaluated if baseline CRP levels impacted the efficacy of non-surgical periodontal therapy protocols. METHODS Forty-two periodontitis patients were enrolled and randomly treated by means of MINST (n = 21) or Q-SI (n = 21). The outcomes assessed were serum CRP and Lp-PLA2, and periodontal parameters (probing depth [PD], clinical attachment level [CAL], full-mouth bleeding score [FMBS]), at baseline and at follow-ups at 1, 3, and 6 months and at 1 year after treatment. RESULTS At 1 year, MINST significantly reduced, among others, mean PD (p = 0.007), mean CAL (p = 0.007), the number of pockets >4 mm (p = 0.011) and ≥6 mm (p = 0.005), and FMBS (p = 0.048) compared to Q-SI. Generalized multivariate analysis evidenced that high baseline CRP (p = 0.039) and FMBS (p = 0.046) levels, together with MINST treatment (p = 0.007) were significant predictors of PD reduction at 1-year follow-up. Moreover, the Jonckheere-Terpstra test showed that patients with high baseline CRP levels gained more benefits from MINST treatment at 1-year follow-up than they did from Q-SI. CONCLUSION Patients receiving MINST showed a greater reduction in CRP levels than patients with Q-SI after 1 year of follow-up. Moreover, patients with high baseline levels of CRP and Lp-PLA2 gained more benefits from the MINST approach at 1-year follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periodontitis is characterized by local inflammatory conditions in the periodontium, its severe form has been associated with elevated systemic inflammatory markers. However, the long-term effects of periodontal inflammation control on systemic inflammatory markers are unclear. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the long-term effects of periodontal therapy on the levels of peripheral venous blood inflammatory markers in patients with generalized aggressive periodontitis (GAgP), all of whom were now diagnosed as Stage III or IV Grade C periodontitis. METHODS Patients with GAgP were consecutively recruited from April 2013 to August 2014 (T0). Active periodontal treatment (APT) was provided, and follow-ups were conducted over a 3- to 5-year period (T1). Clinical parameters were assessed and fasting venous blood was collected at T0 and T1. Complete blood cell counts were obtained, and biochemical analyses were performed to evaluate the levels of serum components. The correlations between probing depth (PD) and hematological parameters were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 49 patients with GAgP completed APT and follow-ups. Probing depth (PD) reduced from 5.10 ± 1.07 mm at T0 to 3.15 ± 0.65 mm at T1. For every 1-mm reduction in PD after treatment, the neutrophil count, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, and total protein concentration were reduced by 0.33 × 109 /L, 0.26, and 1.18 g/L, respectively. In contrast, the albumin/globulin ratio increased by 0.10. CONCLUSION This study indicated that periodontal therapy may have beneficial effects on peripheral venous blood inflammatory markers in patients with GAgP during long-term observation.

Int Urol Nephrol 2024; 56:205-215. [PMID: 37204678 DOI: 10.1007/s11255-023-03624-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2022] [Accepted: 05/02/2023] [Indexed: 05/20/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE This current study scrutinized the association among left ventricular mass index (LVMI), ratio of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and C-reactive protein (CRP), and renal function. Furthermore, we examined the predictive effects of left ventricular mass index and HDL/CRP on progression of non-dialysis chronic kidney disease. METHODS We enrolled adult patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who were not receiving dialysis and obtained follow-up data on them. We extracted and compared data between different groups. To investigate the relationship between left ventricular mass index (LVMI), high-density lipoprotein (HDL)/C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, and CKD, we employed linear regression analysis, Kaplan-Meier analysis, and Cox proportional hazards regression analysis. RESULTS Our study enrolled a total of 2351 patients. Compared with those in the non-progression group, subjects in the CKD progression group had lower ln(HDL/CRP) levels (- 1.56 ± 1.78 vs. - 1.14 ± 1.77, P < 0.001) but higher left ventricular mass index (LVMI) values (115.45 ± 29.8 vs. 102.8 ± 26.31 g/m2, P < 0.001). Moreover, after adjusting for demographic factors, ln(HDL/CRP) was found to be positively associated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (B = 1.18, P < 0.001), while LVMI was negatively associated with eGFR (B = - 0.15, P < 0.001). In the end, we found that both LVH (HR = 1.53, 95% CI 1.15 to 2.05, P = 0.004) and lower ln(HDL/CRP) (HR = 1.46, 95% CI 1.08 to 1.96, P = 0.013) independently predicted CKD progression. Notably, the combined predictive power of these variables was stronger than either variable alone (HR = 1.98, 95% CI 1.5 to 2.62, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Our study findings indicate that in pre-dialysis patients, both HDL/CRP and LVMI are associated with basic renal function and are independently correlated with CKD progression. These variables may serve as predictors for CKD progression, and their combined predictive power is stronger than that of either variable alone.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate whether the use of adjunctive Nd:YAG (1064 nm) laser irradiation to full-mouth scaling and root planing (FM-SRP) may offer additional benefit in the systemic inflammatory status of the patient, as depicted in a variety of systemic biomarkers over FM-SRP alone, up to 12 months after treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 60 otherwise healthy stage III/IV periodontal patients were equally distributed in 3 groups. The control group received FM-SRP. In laser A group, 1 week after FM-SRP, Nd:YAG laser irradiation was delivered in periodontal pockets with PD ≥ 4 mm using specific settings (3 W, 150 mJ, 20 Hz, 100 μs). In laser B group Nd:YAG laser irradiation was delivered twice, 1 week after FM-SRP and 1 week later with different settings compared to laser A (2 W, 200 mJ, 10 Hz, 100 μs). RESULTS A significant reduction (p = 0.038) of IL-1β serum levels at the 6-month time point was observed for laser A group. IL-6 was found statistically significantly increased (p = 0.011) in the control group at the 6-week time point, whereas no difference was reported for the laser-treated groups (laser A, laser B). CONCLUSIONS The adjunctive use of Nd:YAG laser irradiation, prevented from IL-6 increase after FM-SRP, 6 weeks after treatment. Similarly, Nd:YAG laser irradiation (3 W, 150 mJ, 20 Hz,100 μs) was associated with significantly lower IL-1β levels, 6 months post-operatively. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Additional Nd:YAG laser application to FM-SRP may provide a potential beneficial effect on systemic inflammation. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER ISRCTN26692900. REGISTRATION DATE 09/06/2022.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various data have been obtained on the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and C-reactive protein (CRP) and periodontitis. The aim of this study was to determine whether CRP/BMI are associated with periodontitis using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database. METHODS A cross-sectional analysis of data from 3602 participants in the 2009-2010 NHANES cycle was performed. The definition of periodontitis was used to divide participants into four groups according to the criteria of Eke. Correlations between CRP/BMI and periodontitis were tested for statistical significance by means of descriptive statistics, multivariate regression, and subgroup-stratified analyses, with and without adjustments for confounders (such as age and sex). RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences (p > 0.05) regarding BMI and the development of periodontitis. After adjustment for age, sex, race, marital status, annual family income, alcohol consumption, hypertension, smoking, chronic pulmonary disease, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, flossing, and arthritis, CRP correlated significantly with the development of periodontitis in the subgroups stratified by obesity, with an odds ratio (OR) of 1.2 (95% CI, 1.0 to 1.5). CONCLUSION Through data analysis, we found an association between CRP levels and periodontitis prevalence in the American population, although this association was only present in the obese population. While there are several hypotheses about the underlying mechanism, further studies are needed to validate these findings.

Influence of Gallic Acid-Containing Mouth Spray on Dental Health and Oral Microbiota of Healthy Dogs: A Pilot Study. Vet Sci 2023; 10:424. [PMID: 37505829 PMCID: PMC10385331 DOI: 10.3390/vetsci10070424] [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: 04/11/2023] [Revised: 06/14/2023] [Accepted: 06/24/2023] [Indexed: 07/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The pilot study aimed to investigate the effects of GAMS on oral microbiota in healthy dog subjects. Thirty-eight dogs were recruited and randomly allocated to the placebo (n = 19) and treatment groups (n = 19). The dogs were treated with mouth spray once daily for 42 days. The changes in the gingival index (GI), plaque index (PI), and calculus index (CI) were measured at baseline (day 0) and end of the study (42nd day). The changes in the oral microbial composition of representative dogs (placebo, n = 7; and treatment, n = 7) were also evaluated at baseline and end of the study. Oral microbial composition was assessed by sequencing. The sequences were annotated using the QIIME 2.0TM. The GI, PI, and CI indexes were reduced after the GAMS usage. The abundance of the commensal bacterial phylum Actinobacteria and Chloroflexi, genera Frederiksenia, and Bergeyella was improved after six weeks of GAMS usage. GAMS reduced the pathogenic bacterial species, including Neisseria sp., Desulfobulbus sp., Capnocytophaga canis, and Corynebacterium mustelae. Moreover, some pathogenic bacterial abundances were increased at the end of the study. All the microbial variations were observed within the group. The inter-group analysis revealed that the changes were unrelated to GAMS usage. Further studies need to be carried out using more experimental subjects to confirm the effectiveness of GAMS. More metagenomic data are required to evidence the GMAS impact on the oral microbiome of healthy dogs.

Abstract
DATA SOURCES Cochrane Oral Health Information specialist searched databases: Cochrane Oral Health's Trials Register, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials in the Cochrane diary, MEDLINE Ovid, Embase Ovid, CINAHL EBSCO and Open Grey up to 17 November 2021 without language, publication status or year restriction. Additionally, Chinese Bio Medical Literature Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and VIP database were searched up to 4 March 2022. For ongoing trials, the US National Institutes of Health Trials Register, the World Health Organization (WHO) Clinical Trials Registry Platform (up to 17 November 2021), and Sciencepaper Online (up to 4 March 2022) were also searched. A reference list of included studies, hand searching for important journals, and Chinese professional journals in the relevant field was performed until March 2022. STUDY SELECTION Authors screened the articles on the basis of their titles and abstracts. Duplicates were removed. Full-text publications were evaluated. Any disagreement was resolved by discussion amongst themselves or in consultation with a third reviewer. Only randomised controlled trials assessing the effects of periodontal treatment on participants having chronic periodontitis with cardiovascular disease (CVD) (secondary prevention) or without cardiovascular disease (primary prevention) with minimum follow-up of one year were considered. Patients having known genetic or congenital heart defects, other sources of inflammation, aggressive periodontitis, or were pregnant and/or lactating were excluded. Subgingival scaling and root planning (SRP) with or without combination of systemic antibiotics with or without active remedies were compared with supragingival scaling, mouth rinse, or no periodontal treatment. DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS Data extraction was performed by two independent reviewers in duplicate. A formal, customised pilot-based data extraction form was used to capture data. Overall risk of bias for each study was categorised as low, medium, and high. For trials having missing data or unclear data, clarification from the authors were sought by mail. Testing for heterogeneity was planned by I2 test. For dichotomous data, fixed-effect model (Mantel-Haenszel) was used; and for continuous data, mean difference and 95% confidence intervals were used as measures of treatment effect. For time-to-event data, Peto or inverse variance method was used. Sensitivity and subgroup analysis was planned to test the stability of conclusion. RESULTS Following initial electronic and hand search, 1690 articles were screened for title and abstract and 82 articles were considered for full-text eligibility. Finally, two studies out of the reported six articles were included in this review for qualitative synthesis of results, and no study was included in the quantitative analysis. Publication bias was determined using funnel plots which were further assessed using dichotomous and continuous outcome. For primary prevention of CVD in participants with periodontitis and metabolic syndrome, one study (165 participants) provided very low certainty evidence. Scaling and root planning plus amoxicillin and metronidazole could reduce incidence of all-cause death (Peto odds ratio [OR] 7.48, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.15 to 376.98), or all CVD-related death (Peto OR 7.48, 95% CI 0.15 to 376.98). The possibility that scaling and root planning plus amoxicillin and metronidazole could increase cardiovascular events (Peto OR 7.77, 95% CI 1.07 to 56.1) compared with supragingival scaling measured at 12-month follow-up was observed. For secondary prevention of CVD, one pilot study randomised 303 participants to receive scaling and root planning plus oral hygiene instruction or oral hygiene instruction plus a copy of radiographs and recommendation to follow-up with a dentist (community care). As cardiovascular events had been measured for different time periods between 6 and 25 months, and only 37 participants were available with at least one-year follow-up, the data was not sufficiently robust for inclusion in the review. The study did not evaluate all-cause death and all CVD-related death. Conclusions about the effects of periodontal therapy on secondary prevention of CVD were not drawn. CONCLUSIONS There is very limited evidence assessing the impact of periodontal therapy on the prevention of cardiovascular disease, and it is insufficient to generate any implications for practice. Further trials are needed before reliable conclusions can be drawn.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim: To determine the concentration of markers of the immune-inflammatory response (IL-1β, IL-10, IL-1β / IL-10, hsCRP) in oral fluid in patients with diseases of periodontal tissues in combination with general somatic pathology. PATIENTS AND METHODS Materials and methods: The study was conducted at Danylo Halytsky Lviv National Medical University, Department of therapeutic dentistry FPGE, Lviv, Ukraine. The patients were divided into two groups: the main group - 144 patients (with periodontal tissue diseases on the background of general somatic pathology) and the control group - 30 somatically and dentally healthy persons, in whose oral fluid was determined the concentration of IL-1β, IL-10, hsCRP by the enzyme immunoassay method. RESULTS Results: As a result of our research, it was found that in people with periodontal tissue diseases, against the background of general somatic pathology, there is an activation of the immune-inflammatory response, which aggravates the course of general somatic and dental diseases in this contingent of patients. CONCLUSION Conclusions: Therefore, in patients with periodontal tissue diseases on the background of somatic diseases, a significant increase in the level of the pro-in-flammatory cytokine IL-1β and hsCRP was determined against the background of a decrease in the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 in the oral fluid compared to the values in the control group.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a microbially driven host-mediated disease that leads to loss of periodontal attachment and bone. It is associated with elevation of systemic inflammatory markers and with the presence of systemic co-morbidities. Furthermore, periodontal treatment leads to a 24-48 h-long acute local and systemic inflammatory response. This systemic response might increase the burden of patients with compromised medical history and/or uncontrolled systemic diseases. The correlation between periodontitis and systemic diseases, the impact of periodontitis on the quality of life and public health, the effects of periodontal treatment on systemic health and disease, and the available methods to manage systemic inflammation after periodontal therapy are discussed. The main focus then shifts to a description of the existing evidence regarding the impact of periodontitis and periodontal treatment on systemic health and to the identification of approaches aiming to reduce the effect of periodontitis on systemic inflammation.

The impact of a needs-oriented dental prophylaxis program on bacteremia after toothbrushing and systemic inflammation in children, adolescents, and young adults with chronic kidney disease. Pediatr Nephrol 2022; 37:403-414. [PMID: 34297188 PMCID: PMC8816805 DOI: 10.1007/s00467-021-05153-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2021] [Revised: 05/07/2021] [Accepted: 05/20/2021] [Indexed: 01/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) still leads to high mortality rates, mainly due to cardiovascular disease. One important influencing factor is persisting low-grade chronic inflammation partly maintained by gingivitis that favors transient bacteremia during daily activities such as toothbrushing. METHODS To examine whether intensive dental prophylaxis can restore oral health, reduce the prevalence of bacteremia and degree of systemic inflammation indicated by CRP levels, we conducted this pilot study examining 30 CKD patients aged 6-26 years, 15 receiving intensive prophylaxis (IP), 15 receiving treatment as usual (TAU) serving as control group. There were three appointments for examination, each 10 ± 1 weeks apart (at baseline, after intervention periods one and two, when TAU also received IP, and the IP group stopped prophylaxis). RESULTS The gingival index (GI) in the IP group decreased by 90% (GI 0.09; p=0.001), resulting in almost healthy gingiva. There was no significant change in CRP or prevalence of bacteremia. General prevalence of bacteremia after toothbrushing was 9.5% affecting 7 (26%) of the participants. In three participants, bacteremia dissolved after IP, in one after TAU. Two patients developed bacteremia ≥ 10 weeks after ending IP. We identified eight different bacterial species. CONCLUSIONS We were able to show that IP can effectively treat gingivitis. It might be a promising approach to reduce systemic inflammation and subsequently lower premature cardiovascular disease, despite the lack of statistical significance. Future research requires a larger patient cohort to enable matched treatment groups with long-term follow-up and molecular detection methods for bacteremia. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

J Indian Soc Periodontol 2021; 25:485-490. [PMID: 34898913 PMCID: PMC8603799 DOI: 10.4103/jisp.jisp_32_20] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2020] [Revised: 03/13/2021] [Accepted: 04/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of nonsurgical periodontal therapy on clinical, renal, and hematological parameters at baseline and 3 months postoperatively on chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients undergoing hemodialysis. This comparative interventional study was conducted among CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis. Materials and Methods: This study included chronic periodontitis (CP) patients divided into three groups Group I: CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis for less than a year; Group II: CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis for more than a year; and Group III: systemically healthy CP patients. Clinical parameters (bleeding on probing [BOP], probing pocket depth (PPD), and clinical attachment level [CAL]) were recorded at baseline (T0), 1 month (T1), and 3 months after scaling and root planing (SRP) (T2). C-reactive protein (CRP) and transferrin saturation (TSAT) were observed at T0 and at T2. Paired t-test and Chi-square test were applied to find the statistical significance (P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant at 95% confidence interval) between the T0 and T2 time within the groups. Results: Clinical parameters such as PPD and CAL decreased with statistical significance in Group III alone, whereas BOP decreased with statistical significance in all the three groups. The study showed statistically significant reduction of CRP (in Group I and Group III) and TSAT increased with statistical significance in all the three groups after SRP. Conclusion: This suggests that SRP can bring an improvement in the systemic markers in CP patients under hemodialysis. However, we need a longitudinal study with a larger sample size to confirm the results.

Abstract
The oral microbiome in dogs is a complex community. Under some circumstances, it contributes to periodontal disease, a prevalent inflammatory disease characterized by a complex interaction between oral microbes and the immune system. Porphyromonas and Tannerella spp. are usually dominant in this disease. How the oral microbiome community is altered in periodontal disease, especially sub-dominant microbial populations is unclear. Moreover, how microbiome functions are altered in this disease has not been studied. In this study, we compared the composition and the predicted functions of the microbiome of the cavity of healthy dogs to those with from periodontal disease. The microbiome of both groups clustered separately, indicating important differences. Periodontal disease resulted in a significant increase in Bacteroidetes and reductions in Actinobacteria and Proteobacteria. Porphyromonas abundance increased 2.7 times in periodontal disease, accompanied by increases in Bacteroides and Fusobacterium. It was predicted that aerobic respiratory processes are decreased in periodontal disease. Enrichment in fermentative processes and anaerobic glycolysis were suggestive of an anaerobic environment, also characterized by higher lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis. This study contributes to a better understanding of how periodontal disease modifies the oral microbiome and makes a prediction of the metabolic pathways that contribute to the inflammatory process observed in periodontal disease.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the effect of treatment of periodontitis on systemic health outcomes, pregnancy complications, and associated quality of life. MATERIALS AND METHODS Systematic electronic searches were conducted to identify randomized controlled trials with minimum 6-month follow-up and reporting on the outcomes of interest. Qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed as deemed suitable. RESULTS Meta-analyses confirmed reductions of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) [0.56 mg/L, 95% confidence interval (CI) (-0.88, -0.25), p < .001]; interleukin (IL)-6 [0.48 pg/ml, 95% CI (-0.88, -0.08), p = .020], and plasma glucose [1.33 mmol/l, 95% CI (-2.41, -0.24), p = .016], and increase of flow-mediated dilation (FMD) [0.31%, 95% CI (0.07, 0.55), p = .012] and diastolic blood pressure [0.29 mmHg, 95% CI (0.10, 0.49), p = .003] 6 months after the treatment of periodontitis. A significant effect on preterm deliveries (<37 weeks) was observed [0.77 risk ratio, 95% CI (0.60, 0.98), p = .036]. Limited evidence was reported on quality-of-life (QoL) outcomes in the included studies. CONCLUSIONS Treatment of periodontitis results in systemic health improvements including improvement in cardiometabolic risk, reduction in systemic inflammation and the occurrence of preterm deliveries. Further research is however warranted to confirm whether these changes are sustained over time. Further, appropriate QoL outcomes should be included in the study designs of future clinical trials.

Abstract
Periodontitis has been associated with low-grade inflammation as assessed by C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and its treatment can decrease CRP serum levels. The aim of this systematic review was to critically appraise the evidence comparing CRP serum levels (standard and high-sensitivity [hs]) of otherwise healthy patients suffering from periodontitis when compared to controls. The impact of intensive and non-intensive nonsurgical periodontal treatment (NSPT) on hs-CRP was also investigated. Four electronic databases (Pubmed, The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials [CENTRAL], EMBASE and Web of Science) were searched up to February 2021 and the review was completed according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines (PROSPERO No. CRD42020167454). Observational and intervention studies that: 1) evaluated CRP and hs-CRP serum levels in patients with and without periodontitis, and; 2) hs- CRP levels after NSPT were included. Following risk of bias appraisal, both qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed. Pooled estimates were rendered through ratio of means (RoM) random-effects meta-analyses. After screening 485 studies, 77 case-control studies and 67 intervention trials were included. Chronic and aggressive periodontitis diagnoses were consistently associated with higher levels of CRP and hs-CRP (p<0.001). Patients with aggressive periodontitis exhibited on average more than 50% higher levels of CRP (RoM [95% confidence interval [CI]]: 1.56 [1.15; 2.12], p=0.0039) than patients with chronic periodontitis. Intensive NSPT induced an immediate increase of hs-CRP followed by a progressive decrease whilst non-intensive NSPT consistently decreased hs-CRP after treatment up to 180 days (p<0.001). These findings provide robust evidence that periodontitis is associated with systemic inflammation as measured by serum CRP levels. Periodontitis treatment induces a short-term acute inflammatory increase when performed in an intensive session, whilst a progressive reduction up to 6 months was demonstrated when performed in multiple visits.

Abstract
Aims Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are also susceptible to periodontitis. The causal link between periodontitis and CKD may be mediated via systemic inflammation/oxidative stress. Using structural equation modelling (SEM), this cross‐sectional study aimed to explore the causal relationship between periodontal inflammation (PI) and renal function. Materials and methods Baseline data on 770 patients with stage 3–5 (pre‐dialysis) CKD from an ongoing cohort study were used. Detailed, bioclinical data on PI and renal function, as well as potential confounders and mediators of the relationship between the two, were collected. SEMs of increasing complexity were created to test the causal assumption that PI affects renal function and vice versa. Results Structural equation modelling confirmed the assumption that PI and renal function are causally linked, mediated by systemic oxidative stress. The magnitude of this effect was such that a 10% increase in PI resulted in a 3.0% decrease in renal function and a 10% decrease in renal function resulted in a 25% increase in PI. Conclusions Periodontal inflammation represents an occult source of oxidative stress in patients with CKD. Further clinical studies are needed to confirm whether periodontal therapy, as a non‐pharmacological approach to reducing systemic inflammatory/oxidative stress burden, can improve outcomes in CKD.

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
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.

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.

Lavigne SE, Forrest JL. An umbrella review of systematic reviews of the evidence of a causal relationship between periodontal disease and cardiovascular diseases: Position paper from the Canadian Dental Hygienists Association. CANADIAN JOURNAL OF DENTAL HYGIENE : CJDH = JOURNAL CANADIEN DE L'HYGIENE DENTAIRE : JCHD 2020; 54:32-41.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Previous position papers have confirmed associations between periodontal disease and cardiovascular disease. Causal associations have not been confirmed and have been the source of much confusion for oral health professionals and the public. AIM To investigate whether sufficient evidence exists for a causal relationship between periodontal disease and cardiovascular disease. METHODS The PICO question was "For adults in good general health who are diagnosed with periodontal disease, will receiving non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT), as compared to not receiving NSPT, lower their risk for cardiovascular diseases?" Only systematic reviews (SRs) with or without meta-analyses (MAs) of randomized controlled trials published in the English language between 2007 and 2019 were included. Databases searched included PubMed, MEDLINE, EbscoHost, CINAHL, Scopus, Cochrane Registry of Systematic Reviews, and Clinical Trials Registry. Quality assessments were conducted by both authors using the PRISMA checklist. The Bradford Hill criteria were used to determine evidence for causality. RESULTS Of 53 cardiovascular disease studies retrieved, 7 met the inclusion criteria, of which 6 contained MAs. Results were mixed for various periodontal interventions lowering the risk for cardiovascular outcomes. Only one SR used cardiovascular events as a direct outcome; the other 6 used various surrogate measures. CONCLUSIONS Bradford Hill criteria analysis failed to support a causal relationship between periodontal disease and cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
The effects and consequences of periodontal diseases might not be confined to the oral cavity. A great body of evidence has arisen supporting the claim demonstrating an association with several systemic conditions and diseases. With different levels of evidence, an association between periodontal disease and cardiovascular disease, diabetes, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, pregnancy outcomes and respiratory diseases has been established. However, the true nature of this association, if it is causal, still remains elusive. For a better understanding of the complex relationships linking different conditions, interventional studies now begin to focus on the possible outcomes of periodontal treatment in relation to the events, symptoms and biomarkers of several systemic disorders, assessing if periodontal treatment has any impact on them, hopefully reducing their severity or prevalence. Therefore, we proceeded to review the recent literature on the subject, attempting to present a brief explanation of the systemic condition or disease, what proposed mechanisms might give biological plausibility to its association with periodontal disease, and finally and more importantly, what data are currently available pertaining to the effects periodontal treatment may have. Raising awareness and discussing the possible benefits of periodontal treatment on overall systemic health is important, in order to change the perception that periodontal diseases are only limited to the oral cavity, and ultimately providing better and comprehensive care to patients.

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.

Abstract
Background Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is the main cause of mortality in developed countries. It is a chronic and systemic inflammatory disease with a multifactorial etiology. Periodontal disease is one of the many factors that contribute to its development. Objective To analyze the effects of periodontal treatment on cardiovascular risk parameters in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Material and Methods A systematic research was conducted in the Pubmed/Medline databases for clinical trials published up to and including the year 2017. Results Ten articles were included for analysis. Periodontal treatment reduced C-reactive protein levels (77.8% of clinical trials), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (66.7%), interleukin-6 (100%) and leukocytes (50%). Fibrinogen levels also improved considerably (66.7%). Effects on lipid parameters were more limited, whereby only oxidized low density lipoprotein and very low density lipoprotein cholesterol decreased significantly. Meta-analysis showed a statistically significant decreased in C-reactive protein and leukocytes values when patients were submitted to non-surgical periodontal treatment in contrast to receiving no treatment at all (mean difference 1.199 mg/L, 95% confidence interval: 1.100-1.299, p<0.001; and mean difference 0,79 g/L, 95% confidence interval: 0.717-0.879, p<0.001, respectively). Conclusions Periodontal treatment has a beneficial effect on some of the biochemical parameters considered to represent cardiovascular risk. Further randomized clinical trials are necessary, with longer follow-up periods including regular periodic monitoring, in order to determine the extent of the impact of periodontal treatment. Key words:Periodontal disease, cardiovascular disease, atherosclerosis, periodontal therapy, periodontal treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is epidemiological evidence showing an association between periodontal disease and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Despite this evidence* no comprehensive review has been undertaken to identify strategies to improve the oral health of people with CVD. OBJECTIVES The aim of this review is to identify current evidence relating to the oral healthcare and management of patients with CVD. METHODS A scoping review was undertaken focusing on 4 key areas, namely, the impact of periodontal treatment on CVD, current recommendations regarding oral health and CVD, the role of nurses in promoting oral health, and available resources to support them. Databases were searched using a combination of keywords and search terms and 34 articles were selected. RESULTS Systematic reviews suggest that periodontal treatment may improve CVD outcomes by reducing systemic inflammation and improving endothelial function. However, there is insufficient evidence to confirm or refute these findings. International guidelines recognize the link between periodontal disease and CVD and recommend preventative strategies in this area. Non-oral health professionals, including nurses, can promote oral health and have been undertaking this role in areas like aged care and pregnancy. However, this aspect of nursing care has not been explored in the cardiac setting and no relevant training and assessment tools are available. CONCLUSIONS Maintaining oral health among cardiovascular patients is important, yet it appears to be neglected during cardiac care. Cardiac nurses are in an excellent position to promote oral health but further research is required to define their role and develop supporting resources.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periodontal disease has been shown to be associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD). No known studies evaluate the relationship between periodontal disease status and biomarkers of CVD risk in the American Indian/Alaskan Native (AI/AN) population despite their disproportionately high rates of poor oral health and cardiovascular disease-related outcomes. This study compared levels of interleukin (IL)-6 and C-reactive protein (CRP) across increasing severity of periodontal disease status among younger adults between the ages of 21 and 43 years. METHODS Plasma levels of IL-6 and CRP were measured in adult participants (ages 21 to 43 years) as part of a study of periodontal disease and CVD risk among an AI/AN population in southern California (n = 59). Periodontal evaluations were performed and disease status was classified into three categories based on highest probing depth (none/mild: < 3 mm; moderate: 4 to 5 mm; severe: ≥6 mm). Participants with known systemic disease or active infection were excluded. RESULTS Severe periodontitis was significantly associated with increased levels of IL-6 compared with those with none or mild periodontitis before controlling for other variables (P = 0.02), but lacked significance after controlling for sex, BMI, smoking status, and high-density lipoprotein (P = 0.09). Moderate periodontal disease was positively associated with IL-6 levels after controlling for potential confounders (P = 0.01). Periodontal status was not associated with CRP, before or after adjusting for covariates. CONCLUSIONS In this otherwise healthy AI/AN adult sample, moderate periodontal disease compared with none or mild periodontal disease was associated with increased levels of IL-6. High levels of CRP found in this population warrant further research.

Abstract
Background Studies have demonstrated that periodontal disease is associated with the development of systemic complications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The purpose of this pilot study was to investigate which markers among various systemic disease parameters are affected by periodontal treatment in patients with T2DM. Methods Twelve patients with T2DM were given oral hygiene instructions and subsequent subgingival scaling and root planing. The periodontal status was recorded, and blood and urine samples were taken to measure various parameters of glucose control and systemic status at baseline and 1 month following the periodontal treatment. Serum concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-α and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results After the periodontal treatment, the glycated hemoglobin value was significantly improved. The levels of urinary N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase and albumin, which are markers of renal dysfunction, also decreased significantly after treatment. Among the parameters measured in serum, the γ-glutamyl transpeptidase level, which is usually interpreted as a marker of liver dysfunction, was significantly reduced. The serum concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-α and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein were also significantly reduced by periodontal treatment. Conclusion Within the limitations of this pilot study, periodontal treatment may be effective not only in improving metabolic control, but also in reducing the risk of diabetic kidney and liver disease in patients with T2DM.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of nonsurgical periodontal therapy on circulating serum high-sensitivity capsule reactive protein (hs-CRP) and homocysteine (Hcy) levels in patients with chronic periodontitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study involved fifty participants. The test group included 25 systemically healthy controls (mean age 38.44 ± 3.27 years) with severe chronic periodontitis and the control group (n = 25) included age- and sex-matched systemically and periodontally healthy controls. Clinical parameters were recorded, intraoral periapical radiographs were taken, hematological tests and assessment of serum hs-CRP levels and Hcy levels were performed at baseline and 3 months after completion of nonsurgical periodontal therapy. RESULTS Mean serum hs-CRP and Hcy concentration in patients with chronic periodontitis were 3.37 ± 0.54 mg/L and 21.47 ± 7.93 μmol/L, respectively, and was significantly higher than the controls (1.68 ± 0.71 mg/L and 13.93 ± 8.30 μmol/L, respectively) (P < 0.05). Posttreatment, the mean serum hs-CRP and Hcy concentration reduced significantly in both test and control groups (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Chronic periodontitis leads to an increase in circulating levels of hs-CRP and Hcy in plasma and nonsurgical periodontal therapy decreases periodontal inflammation, which in turn reduces systemic inflammation and consequently decreases serum levels of hs-CRP and Hcy.

Abstract
The causal effect of periodontal treatment on systemic outcomes is unclear because even randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have conflicting results. Two models are proposed to explain the apparently conflicting findings from RCTs evaluating the effect of periodontal treatment on inflammation and systemic outcomes among individuals with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this review was to critically appraise the evidence on the impact of periodontal treatment of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) biomarkers and outcomes. METHODS A systematic search was performed in Cinhal, Cochrane, Embase and Medline for relevant articles up to July 2012. Duplicate screening and reference hand searching were performed. Data were then summarized and evidence graded in tables. RESULTS The search resulted in: (a) no evidence on the effects of periodontal therapy on subclinical atherosclerosis, serum levels of CD40 ligand, serum amyloid A and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, (b) limited evidence on the effects of periodontal therapy on arterial blood pressure, leucocyte counts, fibrinogen, tissue necrosis factor-α, sE-selectin, von Willebrand factors, d-dimers, matrix metalloproteinases, oxidative stress and CVD events, and (c) moderate evidence suggesting a negligible effect of periodontal therapy in reducing interleukin-6 and lipids levels, whilst a positive effect in reducing serum C-reactive protein levels and improving endothelial function. CONCLUSIONS Periodontal therapy triggers a short-term inflammatory response followed by (a) a progressive and consistent reduction of systemic inflammation and (b) an improvement in endothelial function. There is however limited evidence that these acute and chronic changes will either increase or reduce CVD burden of individuals suffering from periodontitis in the long term.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To review the current veterinary and relevant human literature regarding biomarkers of respiratory diseases leading to dyspnea and to summarize the availability, feasibility, and practicality of using respiratory biomarkers in the veterinary setting. DATA SOURCES Veterinary and human medical literature: original research articles, scientific reviews, consensus statements, and recent textbooks. HUMAN DATA SYNTHESIS Numerous biomarkers have been evaluated in people for discriminating respiratory disease processes with varying degrees of success. VETERINARY DATA SYNTHESIS Although biomarkers should not dictate clinical decisions in lieu of gold standard diagnostics, their use may be useful in directing care in the stabilization process. Serum immunoglobulins have shown promise as an indicator of asthma in cats. A group of biomarkers has also been evaluated in exhaled breath. Of these, hydrogen peroxide has shown the most potential as a marker of inflammation in asthma and potentially aspiration pneumonia, but methods for measurement are not standardized. D-dimers may be useful in screening for thromboembolic disease in dogs. There are a variety of markers of inflammation and oxidative stress, which are being evaluated for their ability to assess the severity and type of underlying disease process. Of these, amino terminal pro-C-type natriuretic peptide may be the most useful in determining if antibiotic therapy is warranted. Although critically evaluated for their use in respiratory disorders, many of the biomarkers which have been evaluated have been found to be affected by more than one type of respiratory or systemic disease. CONCLUSION At this time, there are point-of-care biomarkers that have been shown to reliably differentiate between causes of dyspnea in dogs and cats. Future clinical research is warranted to understand of how various diseases affect the biomarkers and more bedside tests for their utilization.

Effect of topical application of melatonin on serum levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes and periodontal disease. J Clin Exp Dent 2015; 7:e628-33. [PMID: 26644840 PMCID: PMC4663066 DOI: 10.4317/jced.52604] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2015] [Accepted: 09/05/2015] [Indexed: 01/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The present clinical trial study was designed to assess the effect of topical application of melatonin on serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP) in patients with diabetes and periodontal disease in comparison with healthy controls. Material and Methods Serum levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and CRP by nephelometry by using the proper commercial kits in 30 patients with diabetes and periodontal disease, and also in a control group of 30 healthy subjects. Periodontograms were performed using the Florida Probe®. Patients with diabetes were treated with a topical application of melatonin (1% orabase cream formula) once daily for 20 days. Healthy subjects were treated with a placebo orabase cream. Results Patients with diabetes and periodontal disease had significantly higher mean levels of serum TNF-α, IL-6 and CRP than healthy subjects (P < 0.001). Following topical melatonin application, there was a statistically significant decrease in the gingival index and pocket depth (P < 0.001) as well as a significant decrease in IL-6 and CRP serum levels (P < 0.001). Local melatonin application in patients with diabetes and periodontal disease resulted in a significant decrease in CRP and IL-6 serum levels as well as an improvement in the gingival index and pocket depth. Patients with periodontal disease had significantly higher serum CRP, IL-6 and TNF-α values by comparison with healthy subjects. Conclusions We conclude that melatonin can modulate the inflammatory action of these molecules in periodontal patients. Key words:Melatonin, periodontal disease, diabetes mellitus, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, C-reactive protein, inflammatory markers.

Abstract
Periodontal and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are inflammatory diseases. Recent epidemiological studies have associated the effect of periodontitis on CVD progression. Findings of oral pathogens in carotid atheromas provided a plausible relationship between these two diseases. One possible mechanism is the infiltration of oral/periodontal pathogens through inflamed and ulcerated gingival epithelium. This results in translocation of oral pathogens throughout the systemic circulation affecting vascular tissues, and initiating a cascade of inflammatory reactions detrimental to the cardiovascular system. In addition, leakage of pro-inflammatory cytokines/chemokines from the ulcerated periodontium into the bloodstream may cause the production of hepatic acute-phase proteins. Moreover, as chronic bacteremia occurs, the adaptive immune system is activated. Antibodies produced in response to periodontal pathogens trigger a cross-reaction between endothelial cells and modified low-density lipoprotein to enhance the movement of lipids into cells within the vessel wall. Some antibodies and inflammatory cytokines promote the Th1 response, thereby further activating macrophages within the atheroma. These plausible mechanisms are contributing factors in initiating and propagating atherogenesis. This review discusses the current understanding of CVD pathology/periodontitis, potential underlying mechanisms regarding this association, and general guidelines for treating patients with CVD risks.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our study sought to evaluate the association between periodontitis and body mass index (BMI) among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. . METHODS In this cross-sectional case control study analysis of 186 diabetic patients, 112 patients had a body mass index ≥30kg/m(2) and 74 control patients had BMI <30kg/m(2). All participants underwent oral examinations including a full mouth recording of clinical attachment level (CAL). Information regarding HbA1c levels and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) were also gathered. . RESULTS Over half (61%) of patients had a BMI ≥30. Of these 52% had CAL less than 2mm. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that there was no association between BMI and CAL. In addition, hs-CRP levels were significantly and positively associated with CAL (OR:1.06, 95% CI: 1.01, 1.12; p=0.007). . CONCLUSION Among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, there was no association between periodontitis and BMI. More studies are needed to further explore this relationship taking into consideration additional lifestyle factors.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the effects of nonsurgical periodontal therapy on levels of
high-sensitivity C-reactive protein in the sera and its association with body mass
index and high density lipoprotein in subjects with severe periodontitis. Methods Sera from 28 subjects (mean age: 34.36±6.24; 32% men) with severe periodontitis
and 27 healthy controls (mean age: 33.18±6.42; 33% men) were collected prior to
periodontal therapy. Blood samples were obtained from 23 subjects who completed
therapy (9-12 months). Oral and systemic parameters such as the number of blood
cells, glucose examination, lipid profile, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein
levels accessed by high-sensitivity immunonephelometry assay, were included. Results Before therapy, in the periodontitis group, the ratio of subjects with
high-sensitivity C-reactive protein <0.3 mg/dL was statistically lower than in
the control group (P<0.0216). After therapy, the ratio of
subjects with high-sensitivity C-reactive protein <0.3 mg/dL was significantly
higher (65.22%) (P<0.0339). The mean value for body mass index
was statistically lower in subjects with high-sensitivity C-reactive protein
<0.3 mg/dL (24.63±4.19), compared with those with high-sensitivity C-reactive
protein >0.3 mg/dL (28.91±6.03) (P<0.0411). High density
lipoprotein presented a mean value statistically higher after therapy
(P<0.0027). Conclusion In systemically healthy subjects with periodontitis, periodontal therapy was
associated with decreased levels of circulating high-sensitivity C-reactive
protein and increase of high density lipoprotein in serum. The clinical trial was
registered at http://www.clinicaltrials.gov.br/, No. RBR-24T799.

Abstract
Background It has been shown that the prevalence of both clinical attachment loss (CAL) ≥1 mm and pocket probing depth (PPD) ≥4 mm is relatively high even in younger dogs, but also that only a minority of the dogs have such clinical signs of periodontal disease (PD) in more than a few teeth. Hence, a minority of dogs carry the major PD burden. These epidemiological features suggest that screening for PD in larger groups of dogs, allowing for rapid assessment of treatment planning, or for the selection of dogs with or without PD prior to be included in experimental trials, should be possible. CAL is the central variable in assessing PD extent and severity while PPD is the central variable used in treatment planning which make these two variables obvious in a screening protocol with the dual aim of disease identification and treatment planning. The main purpose of the present study in 98 laboratory Beagle dogs was to construct a fast, simple and accurate screening tool, which is highly sensitive for the identification of dogs with PD. Results Examination of the maxillary P4, P3, P2, I1 and C would, in this population, result in the identification of 85.5% of all dogs and 96% of all teeth positive for CAL ≥1 mm, and 58.9% of all dogs and 82.1% of all teeth positive for PD ≥4 mm. Examination of tooth pairs, all C’s, maxillary I2, M2 and the mandibular P4 would, in this population result in identification of 92.9% of all dogs and 97.3% of all teeth positive for PD ≥4 mm, and 65.5% of all dogs and 83.2% of all teeth positive for CAL ≥1 mm. The results presented here only pertain to the present study population. Conclusions This screening protocol is suitable for examination of larger groups of laboratory Beagle dogs for PD and our findings indicate that diseased dogs are identified with a high degree of sensitivity. Before this screening can be used in clinical practice, it has to be validated in breeds other than Beagle dogs and in populations with larger age variation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE C-reactive protein (CRP) has been implicated as a possible mediator of the association between periodontitis and several systemic diseases. This study evaluated the impact of nonsurgical periodontal treatment on the serum levels of CRP in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients on hemodialysis. METHODS A total of 77 CKD patients on hemodialysis were included in this study. At baseline, periodontal examination was assessed for all the patients, and chronic periodontitis was defined through clinical attachment level and probing pocket depth, according to the American Association of Periodontology. Nonsurgical periodontal treatment was performed and serum levels of CRP were evaluated at baseline and 8 weeks after periodontal treatment. RESULTS Periodontal treatment resulted in significant reductions in CRP levels (p < 0.001). The difference between pre- and posttreatment CRP concentrations did not show any significant relationship with the severity of periodontitis. CONCLUSIONS Periodontitis is an important source of systemic inflammation in CKD patients. Nonsurgical periodontal treatment can effectively reduce the serum level of CRP in these patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is an important chemokine responsible for the initiation, regulation and mobilization of monocytes to the active sites of severe periodontal inflammation. The present study aims at evaluating the levels of MCP-1 in GCF, saliva and serum and to analyze the changes following phase I periodontal therapy. Assessment of possible correlations between levels of MCP-1 in the three biological fluids was also done. METHODS Fifteen healthy and 30 patients of severe chronic periodontitis (diseased) participated in the study. Patients of the diseased group underwent scaling/root planing. Evaluation of PI, GI, PD, CAL and collection of samples of GCF, serum and saliva was done at baseline and 6 weeks following periodontal therapy. MCP-1 levels were quantified in all samples using ELISA. RESULTS Compared to healthy controls, MCP-1 levels were statistically significantly higher in GCF (p<0.001), saliva (p=0.002) and serum (p<0.001) in subjects with chronic periodontitis. Levels of MCP-1 in all the three fluids decreased significantly in patients after periodontal therapy (p<0.001). There was a significant positive correlation between MCP-1 levels in GCF, saliva and serum in patients of chronic periodontitis both pre (r>0.9) and post-treatment (r>0.6). CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that levels of MCP-1 in GCF and saliva can be reliable indicators of severity of periodontal destruction and their serum levels reflect the systemic impact of this local inflammatory disease thereby strengthening the reciprocal oro-systemic association.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN This was a nested case control study within the Oslo study, which began in 1972/73 with the principle aim of studying prevention and epidemiology of cardiovascular diseases. INTERVENTION Within the Oslo study, men who attended for examination in both 1972/73 and 2000 with a self-reported history of MI (n=548) were compared to controls (n=625) selected at random from the same cohort, and matched by five-year strata for age. OUTCOME MEASURE Information on history of tooth extractions and the reasons for these extractions were obtained from a self-reported questionnaire. Reasons for tooth extractions were subgrouped into infection (marginal periodontitis and apical infection) or trauma/other causes. RESULTS Investigation of the association between the reason for extraction and MI, using prospective logistic analysis, found that extractions attributed to dental infections were significant predictors for risk factors in both 1972/73 and 2000. CONCLUSIONS There was an increased association between MI and tooth extraction due to dental infection compared with tooth extraction for trauma and other reasons.
