Background: This study aims to analyze the relationship between chronic periodontitis and C‐reactive protein (CRP) by considering associated variables in individuals with or without cardiovascular disease. Methods: A sample of 359 both sexes (aged ≥40 years) was assessed. Among these individuals, 144 subjects were admitted hospital because a first occurrence acute myocardial infarction; 80 for reasons other than 135 living community. questionnaire applied obtain demographic lifestyle...
The relationship between oral health and systemic conditions, including the association poor hygiene, periodontal disease, respiratory has been increasingly debated over recent decades. A considerable number of hypotheses have sought to explain possible role bacteria in pathogenesis diseases, some clinical epidemiological studies found results favoring such an association. This review discusses effect on briefly introduces putative biological mechanisms involved, main factors that could...
To compare the use of different definitions for exposure measurement in cases association between periodontal disease (PD) and prematurity and/or low birth weight (PLBW).A database from a previous case-control study was used to four periodontitis: at least one site with probing depth > or =4 mm (1); clinical attachment loss (CAL)> =3 (2); teeth more sites presenting mm, CAL> same (3); presence bleeding on (4). The PD frequency, diagnostic values adjusted measurements were calculated.PD...
The clinical importance of systemic bone loss as a contributory factor to alveolar and the subsequent teeth merits further study, given that osteoporosis periodontal disease lead significantly increased morbidity mortality higher public expenditure funds. This case-control study evaluated association between disease.The sample consisted 139 postmenopausal women: 48 in case group (with disease) 91 control (without disease). diagnosis was established following complete examination using...
Background: Although a number of studies on the role periodontitis in development nosocomial pneumonia (NP) have been published, debate surrounding existence and nature this association continues. The present study investigates influence NP. Methods: This case‐control involved 315 individuals: 85 cases (with NP) 230 controls (without NP), at general hospital Feira de Santana, Bahia, Brazil. Sociodemographic characteristics, health conditions, lifestyle habits were recorded. A full‐mouth...
Background: The effect of periodontal infection on systemic diseases and conditions has been the subject numerous studies worldwide. It is considered that periodontitis may influence hyperinflammatory response in patients with severe asthma as a result immuno‐inflammatory changes. This study aims to evaluate adults. Methods: A case‐control was carried out, comprising 220 adult individuals: 113 diagnosed (case group) 107 without diagnosis (control group). established after full clinical...
Starting in the 1990s, several authors sought to investigate hypothesis that periodontitis during pregnancy may contribute towards birth of low-weight children. However, this relationship is still not well established. The aim study was evaluate whether oral infection associated with gestational event.This a case-control among 548 puerperae, whom 164 were mothers live births (case group) and 384 normal weight (control group). They selected at two public hospital units municipalities State...
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a major factor for the occurrence of cardiovascular events. Causal factors MetS are not well defined or yet unidentified. Preliminary investigations suggest that infections and inflammation may be involved in etiology this syndrome. This study aims to estimate association between severity periodontitis (exposure) (outcome).A cross-sectional was conducted with 419 participants recruited from Diabetes Hypertensive Treatment Center, Feira de Santana, Bahia, Brazil....
To estimate the association between osteoporosis treatment and severe periodontitis in postmenopausal women.This cross-sectional study comprised of 492 women, 113 women treatment, 379 not treated. Osteoporosis consisted systemic estrogen alone, or plus progestin, calcium vitamin D supplements, for at least 6 months. Severe was defined as two interproximal tooth sites with clinical attachment loss mm, one site probing depth 5 mm; dental caries experience measured using decayed, missing,...
An association between periodontitis and cardiovascular disease is now well documented; however, the effect of severity levels on this outcome, specifically acute myocardial infarction (AMI), remains unexplored. This study investigated (exposure) AMI (outcome).This case-control study, matched by sex age, was conducted with 621 participants, 207 individuals treated in emergency department Santa Izabel Ana Nery Hospitals Salvador, Bahia, Brazil, diagnosed a first event, compared to 414 without...
Abstract Objective To investigate the association between severity of periodontitis (exposure) and dyslipidemia (outcome). Methods This was a cross‐sectional study users public health services. Periodontitis defined using Center for Disease Prevention Control American Academy Periodontology criteria. Lipid evaluation used data on systemic biomarkers. Dyslipidemia diagnosis based Guidelines total cardiovascular risk World Health Organization. Weight, height, waist circumference, blood...
This study aimed to investigate the factors associated with oral diseases in individuals HIV/AIDS. A cross sectional was carried out which included 312 registered Specialized Care Services for HIV/AIDS three municipalities of State Bahia: Feira de Santana, Santo Antonio Jesus and Juazeiro, Brazil. Socioeconomic-demographic characteristics related life style dental caries, periodontitis intra-oral mucosal lesions were investigated patients infection. Prevalence Ratio 95% Confidence Interval...
To evaluate the association between periodontitis and severe asthma, with participants in treatment for controlled by therapy.A case-control investigation was performed to compare 130 adults asthma without asthma. Individuals were those ≥4 teeth ≥1 site probing depth mm, clinical attachment level ≥3 bleeding upon at same site. Severe diagnosis based on Global Initiative Asthma criteria.Association exposure found: ORcrude = 2.98 (95% CI: 1.74-5.11). When confounders considered, maintained:...
This research evaluated the association between exposure to common mental disorder (CMD) and presence of periodontitis.Common is characterized by irritation, fatigue, insomnia, forgetfulness, decreased ability concentrate, anxiety, depression. It has been associated with several diseases; however, there are few studies that have it periodontitis.This cross-sectional study was carried out 621 individuals. Data collection involved application a general questionnaire self-reporting for...
Radiographic evaluation of periodontal conditions is a difficult process because the many limitations inherent to this complementary examination and lack image specificity for different types bone defects. The objectives study are utilize digitized imaging resources describe radiographic features defects produced artificially in dry mandibles.14 mandibles were utilized, which produced. Digital photographs conventional radiographs each site obtained standardized manner, before after producing...
Background: The purpose of this study is to present the use a non‐randomized experimental design with multiple controls, emphasis on historical control group, as an alternative methodologic resource for studies association between periodontal disease and prematurity/low birth weight. Methods: sample consisted 234 pregnant women: 54 in Test Group (treatment disease); 68 Control I (without 112 II (historical untreated disease). diagnosis was established by means complete clinical examination,...
Background: The present study aims to compare different diagnostic criteria for periodontal disease that were used the association between and osteoporosis. Methods: A database from a case‐control was used. included sociodemographic, lifestyle, health‐condition data; panoramic radiographs; clinical measurements on conditions 139 postmenopausal women. Each participant classified with regard diagnosis of using five outcome measurement (OM) found in literature studies osteoporosis (OM1 through...
The aim of this study was to investigate whether some mandibular measurements on panoramic radiographs are associated with low bone mineral density in postmenopausal women.A sample 122 dental and tests from women 50 years or older were examined. Bone measured the lumbar spine proximal femur regions through dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. cortical thickness below mental foramen, alveolar resorption, index measured.The resorption showed highest specificity (lumbar spine: 89.8% vs 73.5%,...
