JAPANESE DENTAL SCIENCE REVIEW 2024; 60:148-153. [PMID: 38633513 PMCID: PMC11021219 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdsr.2024.03.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2023] [Revised: 02/27/2024] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Dental and oral management (DOM) is a long-established treatment modality. This scoping review aimed to narratively review previous studies, examine the effects of perioperative DOM, and identify the available evidence. A literature search was conducted using the PubMed electronic database for studies published between January 1, 2000, and March 8, 2022. The search yielded 43 studies, most of which were published in the last 10 years. The results of this study confirmed that improved perioperative oral hygiene is effective in preventing postoperative pneumonia. Our results also suggested that preoperative DOM is effective in preventing postoperative surgical site infections. Perioperative DOM is effective in reducing the incidence of postoperative pneumonia, SSI, and postsurgical complications. Further studies are needed to elucidate the various mechanism of DOM and to examine efficient intervention methods and timing.

Relationship of oral bacterial number with medical hospitalization costs in analysis of Diagnosis Procedure Combination database from single institution in Japan. Sci Rep 2024; 14:11114. [PMID: 38750118 PMCID: PMC11096395 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-60733-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2023] [Accepted: 04/26/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Oral bacteria are known to be associated with perioperative complications during hospitalization. However, no presented reports have clarified the relationship of oral bacterial number with medical costs for inpatients. The Diagnosis Procedure Combination (DPC) database system used in Japan provides clinical information regarding acute hospital patients. The present study was conducted to determine the association of oral bacterial numbers in individual patients treated at a single institution with length of hospital stay and medical costs using DPC data. A total of 2369 patients referred by the medical department to the dental department at Hiroshima University Hospital were divided into the low (n = 2060) and high (n = 309) oral bacterial number groups. Length of hospital stay and medical costs were compared between the groups, as well as the associations of number of oral bacteria with Charlson comorbidity index (CCI)-related diseases in regard to mortality and disease severity. There was no significant difference in hospital stay length between the low (24.3 ± 24.2 days) and high (22.8 ± 20.1 days) oral bacterial number groups. On the other hand, the daily hospital medical cost in the high group was significantly greater (US$1456.2 ± 1505.7 vs. US$1185.7 ± 1128.6, P < 0.001). Additionally, there was no significant difference in CCI score between the groups, whereas the daily hospital medical costs for patients in the high group treated for cardiovascular disease or malignant tumors were greater than in the low number group (P < 0.05). Multivariate regression analysis was also performed, which showed that oral bacterial number, age, gender, BMI, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, malignant tumor, and hospital stay length were independently associated with daily hospitalization costs. Monitoring and oral care treatment to lower the number of oral bacteria in patients affected by cardiovascular disease or cancer may contribute to reduce hospitalization costs.

Quantitative Evaluation of Periodontitis for Predicting the Occurrence of Postoperative Pneumonia After Oncologic Esophagectomy. Ann Surg Oncol 2023; 30:8216-8222. [PMID: 37526753 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-023-14030-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2023] [Accepted: 07/14/2023] [Indexed: 08/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Periodontitis is a biofilm-associated inflammatory periodontal disease associated with postoperative complications after esophagectomy. However, few studies have evaluated the inflammatory burden posed by periodontitis quantitively for patients undergoing oncologic esophagectomy. This study aimed to clarify the relationship between periodontitis and postoperative pneumonia using periodontal inflammatory surface area (PISA). METHODS The study analyzed 251 patients who underwent esophagectomy for esophageal cancer. The patients were classified into low-PISA and high-PISA groups according to preoperative PISA, and the relationship between the occurrence and severity of postoperative pneumonia was investigated. RESULTS The high-PISA group (n = 69) included more males (P < 0.001) and patients with poor performance status (P < 0.024). Postoperative pneumonia occurred more frequently in the high-PISA group than in the low-PISA group (31.9 % vs. 15.9 %; P = 0.008), whereas the incidences of other complications did not differ significantly. In addition, the incidence of severe pneumonia was significantly higher in the high-PISA group (7.2 % vs. 1.6 %; P = 0.038). In the multivariable analysis for adjustment of preoperative confounders, age older than 70 years (odds ratio [OR], 2.62; P = 0.006), high PISA (OR, 2.45; P = 0.012), and smoking history (OR, 2.78; P = 0.006) were the independent variables predicting postoperative pneumonia. CONCLUSION Preoperative higher PISA was significantly associated with the occurrence of overall and severe postoperative pneumonia. The quantitative evaluation of periodontitis using PISA is a useful measure for predicting postoperative pneumonia, and intensive periodontal intervention may contribute to decreasing postoperative pneumonia.

Langenbecks Arch Surg 2023; 408:209. [PMID: 37222945 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-023-02936-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2023] [Accepted: 05/09/2023] [Indexed: 05/25/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Post-operative pneumonia after esophagectomy is a major contributor to morbidity and mortality. Prior studies have demonstrated a link between the presence of pathologic oral flora and the development of aspiration pneumonia. The objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the effect of pre-operative oral care on the incidence of post-operative pneumonia after esophagectomy. METHODS A systematic search of the literature was performed on September 2, 2022. Screening of titles and abstracts, full-text articles, and evaluation of methodological quality was performed by two authors. Case reports, conference proceedings, and animal studies were excluded. A meta-analysis of peri-operative oral care on the odds of post-operative pneumonia after esophagectomy was performed using Revman 5.4.1 with a Mantel-Haenszel, random-effects model. RESULTS A total of 736 records underwent title and abstract screening, leading to 28 full-text studies evaluated for eligibility. A total of nine studies met the inclusion criteria and underwent meta-analysis. Meta-analysis revealed a significant reduction in post-operative pneumonia among patients undergoing pre-operative oral care intervention compared to those without an oral care intervention (OR 0.57, 95% CI 0.43-0.74, p < 0.0001; I2 = 49%). CONCLUSION Pre-operative oral care interventions have significant potential in the reduction of post-operative pneumonia after esophagectomy. North American prospective studies, as well as studies on the cost-benefit analysis, are required.

Preoperative evaluation of oral hygiene may predict the overall survival of patients with esophageal cancer. Esophagus 2023; 20:99-108. [PMID: 35881278 DOI: 10.1007/s10388-022-00941-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2022] [Accepted: 07/11/2022] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previously, the association between tooth loss and prognosis after esophagectomy was reported; however, the presence of periodontal disease has not been assessed. This study investigated the association between the degree of oral hygiene, as evaluated by tooth loss and periodontal disease, and the prognosis of patients with esophageal cancer. METHODS A total of 163 esophageal cancer patients who underwent surgery with perioperative oral care and examination were enrolled. We assessed the periodontal pocket depth for the presence of periodontal disease and established a periodontal pocket index, defined as the sum of the periodontal pocket depth of the remaining tooth divided by the total count of the remaining teeth. Patients were divided into three groups: Group A (tooth loss < 13 and periodontal pocket index < 3.67); Group B (tooth loss < 13 and periodontal pocket index ≥ 3.67); and Group C (tooth loss ≥ 13). Overall survival and cancer-specific survival were analyzed, and a multivariate analysis was performed. RESULTS There was a significant difference in the 5-year overall survival rates between the groups (A:B:C = 74.8%:62.8%:50.5%; p = 0.0098), but not in the 5-year cancer-specific survival rates (A:B:C = 80.2%:64.2%:62.2%; p = 0.0849). In multivariate analysis, oral hygiene (tooth loss < 13 and periodontal pocket index ≥ 3.67 + tooth loss ≥ 13; p = 0.041) was a significant independent poor prognostic factor for overall survival. CONCLUSIONS Oral evaluation, focusing on tooth loss and periodontal disease, is meaningful in predicting the long-term prognosis of postoperative esophageal cancer patients.
