Non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) has been shown to have systemic effects. It suggested that, similar rheumatoid arthritis (RA), periodontitis (PD) an impact on general health, in terms of psychological, physical, and social aspects.

Tumor necrosis factor alpha antagonists (TNFA) are biological agents to treat chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. However, their use is associated with an increased rate of tuberculosis, endemic mycoses, intracellular bacterial infections.

Tuberculosis appeared between 3 24 months after...
Background: periodontal therapy has been suggested to have systemic effects. However, studies of in rheumatoid arthritis patients produced controversial results. Aim: To compare the effects nonsurgical on biochemical markers and parameters with without arthritis. Methods: a prospective before-and-after study was conducted that included 21 participants 29 Periodontal parameters, Porphyromonas gingivalis detection, C-reactive protein, factor anti-citrullinated protein antibodies were measured...
<h3>Background</h3> Idiopathic inflammatory Myopathies are a group of diseases characterised by weakness due to muscle inflammation, with or without dermatological involvement, that classically includes pathognomonic findings like Gottron sign. There have been different criteria used classify these diseases, being Peter and Bohan the most in time, but recently ARC/EULAR proposed new wat approach classification. <h3>Objectives</h3> To compare ACR/<sup>EULAR 2017</sup> versus for Inflammatory...
