Exploring Periodontal Conditions, Salivary Markers, and Systemic Inflammation in Patients with Cardiovascular Diseases. Biomedicines 2024; 12:1341. [PMID: 38927548 PMCID: PMC11201987 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines12061341] [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: 05/17/2024] [Revised: 06/06/2024] [Accepted: 06/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: This cross-sectional investigation appreciated the role of serum C-reactive protein (CRP), several hematologic-cell markers, and salivary inflammation-related molecules [calprotectin (S100A8/A9), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), kallikrein] to predict periodontitis in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ACVD), arrhythmia, or both. Also, we appreciated the relationship between the inflammatory burden and periodontal destruction with the type of cardiac pathology. (2) Methods: Demographic, behavioral characteristics, periodontal indicators, blood parameters, and saliva samples were collected. (3) Results: All 148 patients exhibited stage II or III/IV periodontitis. Stage III/IV cases exhibited significantly increased S100A8/A9 levels (p = 0.004). A positive correlation between S100A8/A9 and IL-1β [0.35 (<0.001)], kallikrein [0.55 (<0.001)], and CRP [0.28 (<0.001)] was observed. Patients with complex cardiac involvement had a significantly higher number of sites with attachment loss ≥ 5 mm [19 (3-30)] compared to individuals with only arrhythmia [9 (3.25-18)] or ACVD [5 (1-12)] [0.048♦ {0.162/0.496/0.14}]. (4) Conclusions: Severe, extensive attachment loss may be indicative of patients with complex cardiac conditions, which underscores the essential role of periodontal status in relation to systemic diseases. The correlations between the rising trends of the inflammatory parameters suggest a potential interconnection between oral and systemic inflammation.

Shu Y, Zhao X, Yang C, Yan Y, Zheng Y, Wang X, Qiu C. Circulating prekallikrein levels are correlated with lipid levels in the chinese population: a cross-sectional study. Lipids Health Dis 2023; 22:79. [PMID: 37353816 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-023-01849-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2023] [Accepted: 06/14/2023] [Indexed: 06/25/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent evidence has revealed that circulating coagulation factor prekallikrein (PK), an important part of the kallikrein-kinin system, regulates cholesterol metabolism, but the association between serum PK and lipid levels is unclear. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 256 subjects (aged from 1 month to 90 years) who underwent physical examinations at the First People's Hospital of Huaihua, China. After overnight fasting, serum was collected for PK and lipid testing. Spearman correlation analysis and multivariable logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the association of PK level with lipid levels and the likelihood risk of hyperlipidemia. The possible threshold value of PK was calculated according to the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. RESULTS The median serum PK level was 280.9 µg/mL (IQR 168.0, 377.0), and this level changed with age but not sex. The serum PK level was positively correlated with the serum total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and triglyceride (TG) levels. A nonlinear relationship was observed between serum PK and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels. The serum PK level was positively correlated with HDL-C when its level was lower than 240 µg/mL and negatively correlated with HDL-C when its level was higher than 240 µg/mL. The regression analysis demonstrated that an elevated serum PK level was significantly associated with the likelihood risk of hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia. The ROC curve showed that the possible threshold values of serum PK for hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia occurrences were 344.9 µg/mL and 305.7 µg/mL, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Elevated serum PK levels were significantly associated with the likelihood of hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia, and the possible threshold values of PK levels were 344.9 µg/mL and 305.70 µg/mL, respectively, suggesting that higher PK levels may be a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases.

Miller RG, Costacou T. Cardiovascular Disease in Adults with Type 1 Diabetes: Looking Beyond Glycemic Control. Curr Cardiol Rep 2022; 24:1467-1475. [PMID: 35947333 DOI: 10.1007/s11886-022-01763-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 08/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Despite improvements in treatment, people with type 1 diabetes continue to have increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Glycemic control does not fully explain this excess CVD risk, so a greater understanding of other risk factors is needed. RECENT FINDINGS The authors review the relationship between glycemia and CVD risk in adults with type 1 diabetes and summarize evidence regarding other factors that may explain risk beyond glycemia. Insulin resistance, weight gain, sex differences, genetics, inflammation, emerging markers of risk, including lipid subclasses and epigenetic modifications, and future directions are discussed. As glycemic control improves, an increased focus on other CVD risk factors is warranted in type 1 diabetes. Novel markers and precision medicine approaches may improve CVD prediction, but a lack of type 1 diabetes-specific guidelines for lipids, blood pressure, and physical activity are likely impediments to optimal CVD prevention in this high-risk population.
