- Abstract
AIM: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between periodontal disease and the general health status in community-dwelling elderly using the serum albumin concentration as a criterion index of the severity of underlying disease and nutrition. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Six hundred subjects aged 70 years underwent a baseline examination. Dental examinations were carried out at baseline and once a year for 4 years. Periodontal conditions were estimated for subjects with at least one remaining tooth. Clinical attachment levels at six sites of all teeth present were measured. A change in loss of attachment of 3 mm or greater in 1 year at each site was defined as periodontal disease progression. Data were analysed in subjects for whom data were available for 4 years. RESULTS: Serum albumin concentration at baseline ranged from 3.4 to 5.0 g/dl with a mean of 4.3+/-0.2. When the analysis was stratified by smoking status, we found that serum albumin concentration had a significant effect on periodontal disease progression among non-smokers (standardized regression coefficient=-0.16; p=0.017), using multiple regression analysis. CONCLUSIONS: The findings of the present study suggest that serum albumin concentration is a significant risk predictor of periodontal disease progression among elderly non-smokers.

- Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Bone loss is a common feature of periodontitis and osteoporosis. Both diseases may share common etiologic agents which may either affect or modulate the process of both diseases. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between systemic bone mineral density (BMD) and periodontal disease among older people. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Among all 4,542 inhabitants aged 70 years according to a registry of residents in Niigata city in Japan, 600 people were selected randomly. One hundred and eighty-four subjects who did not have diabetes mellitus, whose blood sugar was <140 mg/dl, who had more than 20 teeth, who were non-smokers, and who did not take medication for osteoporosis, were included in the study. Four dentists performed clinical evaluations on probing attachment level (PAL). We also utilized the data on BMD of the heel, which we measured using an ultrasound bone densitometer. Follow-up clinical surveys were done by measuring PAL after 3 years. Finally, 179 subjects who could participate in both the baseline and the follow-up examinations were included in the analysis. After dividing the subjects into an osteopenia group (OG) and non-osteopenia group (NOG), we evaluated the relationship between BMD and the number of progressive sites which had > or =3 mm additional attachment loss during 3 years after controlling the known confounding factors. RESULTS: The mean number of progressive sites for the OG and the NOG, respectively, were 4.65+/-5.51 and 3.26+/-3.01 in females and 6.88+/-9.41 and 3.41+/-2.79 in males. Two-way analysis of variance was performed to discriminate among effects of gender, BMD, and gender-BMD interaction. A significant effect of BMD (OG or NOG, p=0.043) with a significant interaction (p=0.038) was observed. Furthermore, BMD was associated with the number of progressive sites which had > or =3 mm additional attachment loss during the 3 years (p=0.001) by multiple linear regression analysis. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggested that there was a significant relationship between periodontal disease and general BMD. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To ascertain the association between tobacco use and gingival bleeding in a rural community in Sri Lanka. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A cross-sectional field-based study was carried out in 2178 rural males aged 20-60 years, employing a multistage cluster sampling technique. The levels of plaque and gingivitis were recorded on four sites of all teeth present excluding third molars, using the plaque index (PLI) and gingival index (GI). Information pertaining to sociodemographic variables, oral hygiene practices and tobacco consumption habits was obtained from all subjects. RESULTS: One-way anova combined with the Bonferroni test disclosed that betel chewers had a significantly higher mean number of sites with gingival bleeding (22.6+/-21.8) than smokers (10.8+/-11.2) and nontobacco users (8.7+/-6.8) (p<0.0001). A higher proportion of betel chewers (55.1%) showed > or =12 bleeding sites compared to smokers (27.6%). Logistic regression analysis revealed that the association between betel chewing and gingival bleeding was positive (OR=2.41; p<0.0001) whereas that of smoking and gingival bleeding was negative (OR=0.75; p<0.05). Oral hygiene had the strongest relationship with gingival bleeding (OR=18.11). CONCLUSION: While confirming the masking effect of smoking on gingival bleeding, these findings indicate that betel chewing might significantly enhance gingival bleeding in the population studied.

The periodontal conditions of 2424 pregnant and 1565 non-pregnant women were assessed according to the community periodontal index of treatment needs (CPITN). The aim of this survey was to obtain information which is necessary for the planning of preventive programs of periodontal disease for pregnant women. 95% of the pregnant women and 96% of the non-pregnant women had some signs of periodontal disease. The % of pregnant women having 4 or 5 mm pockets was significantly higher than that of non-pregnant women, increased with the month of pregnancy, reached a maximum of 31% in the 8-month group, but decreased to the control level in the 9-month group. These changes were interpreted to suggest that the increase of pocket depth during pregnancy was caused by gingival enlargement rather than by periodontal destruction. The results show that pregnant women had a healthier periodontal condition when compared with non-pregnant women, i.e., the number of sextants with healthy periodontal tissues was higher, the % of people having deep pockets (6 mm or deeper) was lower, and the need for prophylaxis was lower in pregnant than in non-pregnant women. These findings suggest that a special program of periodontal disease prevention for pregnant women is not necessary. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Aim: To evaluate the longitudinal association of combined healthy lifestyle factors with incidence or progression of periodontitis and tooth loss in older adults., Materials and Methods: This 6-year study included 374 Japanese 70-year olds with 7,157 teeth, from a source eligible baseline population of 554 individuals. Four lifestyle factors-cigarette smoking, physical activity, relative weight, and dietary quality-were scored as healthy (1 point) or unhealthy (0 point). Adding the individual scores generated the "healthy lifestyle score" (0-4 points). Multilevel mixed-effects logistic regression models were applied to evaluate tooth-specific associations between the baseline healthy lifestyle score and the incidence or progression of periodontitis (increase in clinical attachment loss ≥3 mm) and tooth loss., Results: After 6 years, 19.0% of the teeth exhibited periodontitis incidence or progression and 8.2% were lost. Compared with a healthy lifestyle score of 0-1 (least healthy), the highest score (4 points) was associated with a significantly lower tooth-specific risk of periodontitis (adjusted odds ratio = 0.32; 95% confidence interval: 0.16-0.62) and tooth loss (adjusted odds ratio = 0.42; 95% confidence interval: 0.23-0.77)., Conclusions: Simultaneous adherence to multiple healthy lifestyle factors significantly lowers the risk of incidence or progression of periodontitis and tooth loss in older adults., (© 2018 John Wiley & Sons A/S.

- Abstract
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the possible correlation between vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphism and susceptibility to chronic kidney disease (CKD) and periodontal disease., Material and Methods: This study analysed 345 participants, who were all 79 years of age. Kidney function levels were determined based on the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR; non-reduced function: ≥60 and reduced function: <60 ml min
-1 1.73 m-2 ). VDR TaqI genotyping was also studied. We calculated the periodontal inflamed surface area (PISA). After classifying participants into quartile groups according to eGFR or PISA values, the subjects were then split into two groups (highest quartile versus the other three groups combined). Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the odds ratios between the eGFR and VDR TaqI genotype with the different PISA groups. The eGFR was set as the dependent variable while the VDR TaqI genotype, HbA1C, gender, smoking habits and body mass index were defined as independent variables., Results: A significant association was observed between the VDR TaqI genotype and eGFR in the PISA high group (odds ratio = 3.97, p = .027)., Conclusion: Study results suggest that VDR TaqI genotype might be associated with CKD during inflammatory conditions caused by periodontal disease., (© 2018 John Wiley & Sons A/S.

- Abstract
Aims: An association between periodontal disease and liver enzymes has been reported previously. This study examined the relationship between clinical periodontal parameters and changes in liver enzymes levels in 265 non-institutionalized Japanese elderly aged 72 years over 8 years., Materials and Methods: The number of sites with probing pocket depth (PPD) ≥ 6 mm and clinical attachment level (CAL) ≥ 6 mm were measured. Changes in liver enzymes (alanine transaminase [ALT] and aspartate transaminase [AST]) was grouped based on any elevation of concentrations. The relationship was determined by logistic regression with adjustment for confounders. Interaction test and stratified analysis were then performed according to smoking status and alcohol drinking habits, separately., Results: Elevation in ALT, but not AST, was significantly associated with PPD (odds ratio [OR] = 1.10) and CAL (OR = 1.03). A significant interaction of periodontal parameters on ALT was observed with smoking status, but not with alcohol drinking habit. The stratified analysis suggested that ALT was found to be significantly correlated with PPD (OR = 1.20) and CAL (OR = 1.04) to those who were smoker., Conclusion: The elevation in ALT levels might be associated with clinical periodontal parameters among non-institutionalized Japanese elderly, and this association was modified by smoking status., (© 2017 John Wiley & Sons A/S.

- Abstract
Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine the association between periodontal disease and renal function in elderly women with different genotypes., Material and Methods: A total of 332 postmenopausal never-smoking women were analysed. Poor renal function was defined as serum cystatin C > 0.91 mg/l. Periodontal disease markers such as periodontal inflamed surface area (PISA) were evaluated. Selected variables, including PISA quartile, body mass index (BMI), HbA1C and age in Arg allele carriers and non-carriers based on the beta-3 adrenergic receptor, or between Ala allele carriers and non-carriers based on peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma, were analysed using multiple logistic regression analysis., Results: The odds ratios of serum cystatin C level and PISA (fourth quartile) were significantly positive for both Arg (2.52; p = 0.035) and Ala allele non-carriers (2.36; p = 0.021). A significant association was also found between serum cystatin C level and BMI for both Arg (1.18; p = 0.001) and Ala allele non-carriers (1.12; p = 0.003)., Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that periodontal inflammation might be associated with renal function. Furthermore, in both the Arg and Ala allele non-carriers, the associations between BMI and PISA for renal function became stronger., (© 2017 John Wiley & Sons A/S.

- Abstract
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reciprocal effects of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and periodontal disease., Material and Methods: A total of 332 postmenopausal never smoking women were enrolled, and their serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, serum osteocalcin and serum cystatin C levels were measured. Poor renal function was defined as serum cystatin C > 0.91 mg/l. Periodontal disease markers, including clinical attachment level and the periodontal inflamed surface area (PISA), were also evaluated. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to evaluate the relationships between renal function and periodontal disease markers, serum osteocalcin level and hsCRP level. The prevalence-rate ratios (PRRs) on multiple Poisson regression analyses were determined to evaluate the relationships between periodontal disease markers and serum osteocalcin, serum cystatin C and serum hsCRP levels., Results: On logistic regression analysis, PISA was significantly associated with serum cystatin C level. The odds ratio for serum cystatin C level was 2.44 (p = 0.011). The PRR between serum cystatin C level and periodontal disease markers such as number of sites with clinical attachment level ≥6 mm was significantly positive (3.12, p < 0.001). Similar tendencies were shown for serum osteocalcin level., Conclusion: This study suggests that CKD and periodontal disease can have reciprocal effects., (© 2016 John Wiley & Sons A/S.

- Abstract
Aim: There is a growing interest in comparing periodontal conditions between countries. This study compared periodontal disease conditions in three elderly populations- one from Japan and two from Germany., Materials and Methods: We compared periodontal data of 70-year-old subjects from the Niigata Study with 65-74-year-old subjects from the Study of Health in Pomerania (SHIP) and from West Germany (DMS III). A total of 489, 399 and 549 dentate subjects were analysed, respectively. Recording protocols were standardized. Linear or logistic models were used to compare Niigata Study with SHIP., Results: Elderly German subjects in SHIP and DMS III had significantly more severe periodontal conditions and fewer remaining teeth compared to those in Niigata Study, though differences were less pronounced for DMS III. German subjects showed a significantly different pattern of various periodontal risk factors compared to Japanese subjects. Even after adjustment for putative periodontal risk factors, SHIP subjects still presented significantly higher adjusted values for most periodontal parameters compared to Niigata Study subjects (p < 0.05)., Conclusions: Periodontitis was more prevalent in SHIP compared with Niigata Study, even after comprehensive risk factor adjustment. Only to a very small extent, differences between studies could be explained by the risk factors explored., (© 2014 John Wiley & Sons A/S. Published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.)

- Abstract
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to elucidate whether the association between beta-3 adrenergic receptor polymorphism and periodontal disease is modified by body weight., Material and Methods: We enrolled 332 postmenopausal women and determined their HbA1C levels (%) and beta-3 adrenergic receptor (rs4994) genotypes. Periodontal parameters including clinical attachment level (CAL) were measured. After selecting subjects for each body mass index (BMI) level, the prevalence rate ratio (PRR) by multiple Poisson regression analysis was calculated to evaluate the relationship between periodontal disease and beta-3 adrenergic receptor polymorphism. The number of sites with CAL≥6 mm was used as a dependent variable, and beta-3 adrenergic receptor genotype [categorized as Arg non-carriers (reference) or Arg carriers], age (y) and HbA1C (%) were adopted as independent variables. We converted the number of probing sites (n) to an offset variable., Results: The PRR of the beta-3 adrenergic receptor genotype for the number of sites of CAL≥6 mm showed a positive association in subjects with BMI≥25.0 and increased markedly with BMI. The PRR in subjects with BMI≥30 was 3.10 (p < 0.0001)., Conclusion: This study indicates a positive association between periodontal disease and the beta-3 adrenergic receptor genotype in obese individuals., (© 2014 John Wiley & Sons A/S.

- Abstract
Objective: Evidence from physiological and clinical studies regarding the mechanism by which calcium and magnesium are associated with periodontal disease, adjusted for smoking habits, is lacking. This longitudinal study evaluated the association of serum calcium levels and the calcium/magnesium (Ca/Mg) ratio with periodontal disease progression among smokers and non-smokers., Material and Methods: A total of 309 subjects aged 73 years were included. Follow-up surveys were carried out every year for 6 years. After dividing subjects into smokers and non-smokers, multiple logistic regression analysis for men was performed to evaluate the relationship between the serum Ca/Mg ratio and periodontal disease progression. We used the 25th percentile of periodontal disease events for 6 years as the dependent variable and seven other variables, including quartiles for serum Ca/Mg ratios, as independent variables., Results: There was a clear dose-response relationship of Ca/Mg ratio quartiles for periodontal disease events among smokers. Significant differences in odds ratios in the first and second quartiles were seen compared with the fourth quartile (reference): 6.28 (p=0.014) and 5.96 (p=0.022), respectively. However, there was no significant dose-response relationship among non-smokers., Conclusion: A low serum Ca/Mg ratio was significantly associated with periodontal disease progression in Japanese elderly smokers., (© 2011 John Wiley & Sons A/S.)

- Abstract
Objective: While most previous epidemiological studies have focused on subject-level risk factors for periodontal destruction, tooth-related factors have not been fully explored. The purpose of this study was to evaluate both tooth-related and subject-related factors affecting periodontal disease progression using a two-level multilevel model., Material and Methods: A longitudinal survey over a period of 10 years was carried out on 286 community-dwelling elderly subjects aged 70 years at baseline. Clinical attachment level (CAL) was measured at six sites per tooth on all teeth present and periodontal disease progression was defined as CAL> or =3 mm., Results: Periodontal disease progression was found in 79% of the subjects and most frequently in maxillary molars. Multilevel logistic regressions revealed that subjects wearing removable dentures were significantly at risk for periodontal disease progression. Abutment teeth for removable/fixed dentures were also significantly more likely to suffer periodontal breakdown. Furthermore, the following tooth-related variables were found to be possible risk factors for periodontal disease progression: maxillary and multirooted teeth., Conclusion: Multirooted teeth and abutments for a fixed denture were possible risk factors for periodontal disease progression.

- Abstract
Aims: The aims of this study were to evaluate the effect of mechanical periodontal treatment with local application of minocycline (APT) on serum adiponectin as a marker of insulin resistance improvement in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients and to investigate if effect of APT on serum adiponectin level was sustained by periodontal maintenance (PM)., Material and Methods: Twenty-seven T2DM patients were randomly assigned into test or control groups. Test received scaling with ultrasonic devices at baseline and APT biweekly for 2 months while control received scaling at baseline and mechanical tooth cleaning (MPT) at the same interval. At 6 months, all patients received mechanical tooth cleaning as PM. Periodontal examination and blood measurements were performed at baseline, 4 and 9 months., Results: Adiponectin concentrations in test had significantly increased by 31.4% after APT (p=0.024) and by 30.4% after PM (p=0.002) compared with baseline. The percentage of >or=4 mm probing depths (PD) had shown 8.3% and 9.3% reduction after APT and PM (p=0.046, 0.02) in test while 5.0% reduction after MPT in control group (p=0.031)., Conclusions: Our results suggested that APT and PM not only improve periodontal disease but also increase serum adiponectin in T2DM patients.

- Abstract
The aim of this study was to identify the risk factors for periodontal disease progression by individual characteristics at baseline among elderly people over a 2-year period. Subjects were selected from 4542 people aged 70 years residing in Niigata who were in good general health and who did not require special care for their daily activities. Gender, smoking and alcohol drinking habits were obtained using a questionnaire, while serum levels of disease markers were investigated and attachment levels were clinically recorded. For the assessment of periodontal disease progression, additional attachment loss was used if one or more sites had a 3-mm or more increase in probing attachment level over a 2-year period. In all, 394 subjects (208 males and 186 females) were surveyed. Approximately 75% of subjects exhibited additional attachment loss over a 2-year period. Significant associations were found between additional attachment loss and smoking, and attachment level of 6 mm or more at baseline, with odds ratios of 3.75 and 2.29, respectively. Smoking habit and baseline attachment level of 6 mm or more may be considered risk factors for further attachment loss among healthy elderly people.

- Abstract
The aim of the present overview is to evaluate the periodontal conditions in European populations. Study was made of a number of extensive surveys of periodontal diseases carried out in a number of European countries, primarily North West Europe. These surveys often provide considerable detail. However, international comparisons are difficult to perform because of the different methods applied. Therefore, the latest overviews of results of periodontal surveys, based on the CPITN method and stored in the WHO Global Oral Data Bank, are given for the age groups 15-19 years and 35-44 years. Based on this approach, the conclusions are as follows. Trends and prevalences in periodontal health and disease in Europe are clear, at least up to the age of 60 year. Severe periodontal destruction seems to be a limited problem, seldom leading to tooth loss before age 50 and certainly not a major cause of edentulousness before age 60. For a large majority, in most of the populations observed, the progress of periodontal destruction seems to be compatible with the retention of a natural, functioning dentition into older age. However, the periodontal problem might still be of considerable magnitude and importance as bleeding on probing is widely encountered in the younger age groups. Furthermore, 5-15% of populations affected by a serious, irreversible condition at age 40 years is high, compared with most other diseases.
