Popis: | The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between periodontopathic bacteria and diabetes mellitus (DM) status in cardiovascular disease (CVD) subjects.DM is associated with the progression of periodontitis. Several epidemiological studies have suggested that periodontitis may be a risk factor for CVD. However, no study has compared the periodontal condition between well-controlled and poorly-controlled DM patients with CVD.The subjects were well-controlled (n = 73) or poorly-controlled (n = 39) DM patients with CVD. Blood examinations and dental clinical measurements, including number of teeth, probing pocket depth, bleeding on probing (BOP), and clinical attachment level (CAL) were performed. Periodontopathic bacterial existence was evaluated.Worsened CAL and BOP rate were detected in the uncontrolled DM group compared to the controlled group. We found increased salivary Porphyromonas gingivalis counts in the uncontrolled DM group compared to well-controlled DM subjects.Specific periodontopathic bacterial infection may affect DM condition in CVD patients. |
