Popis: OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality of prediction for stable results after nonsurgical periodontal therapy by several microbiological variables of the subgingival biofilm and biomarkers of gingival crevicular fluid or oral lavage. MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty-six individuals with moderate or severe chronic periodontitis receiving nonsurgical periodontal therapy were monitored for clinical variables, selected microorganisms, and biomarkers at baseline and 3 and 6 months thereafter. Logistic regression analysis and general linear model (GLM) were applied for analysis of variance and covariance. RESULTS At 6 months, 20 patients showed a high response (HR) to treatment (at least 60 % of reduction of numbers of sites with PD >4 mm), whereas 26 did not (low response, LR). All clinical variables were significantly improved at 3 and 6 months within each group (p
